When I heard that voice, my body s.h.i.+vered in fright.
When I have turned around, and stepped back as the big shadow corrupted me and without knowing I hit my back with the hard gold statue.
When was I this close of a distance from that dude. The whom came towards me was 2 people. One of them was far away from me so I couldn"t see the face, but judging from his outfit I think he was a knight. And the owner of the shadow, this person right in front of me was.......
Tick tick. Clang!
The moment I saw his face, all strength exited my body.
The pocket bag filled with my beauties crashed to the ground and had exposed my beauties out the pocket bag. My gems I have collected little by little were s.h.i.+ning on the white floor.
The man far away saw it and made a... weirded face.
Unlike that guy, the dude in front of me didn"t move a muscle and just stared at me emotionless.
"That face."
The voice that was as cold as what his eyes were expressing seemed to be looking through straight at me. That fascinating eyes...
He and I looked really alike, but his eyes looked like real gem which has no emotions or whatsoever.
"Its familiar."
I"ve never seen him before, but I knew just from a first glance.
Golden hair that sways in the wind. The gem blue eyes only the royal bloodlines posses. The emotionless face staring right down at me. The enemy-like aura that flows in everywhere in my body.
Claude de Eljeuh Obelia.
The father of Atanasia also a guy being the emperor of this country was staring as if he was staring at a rock laid in the sidewalk.
"Right. Was is the dancer from Siodonna. You look alike to that women."
I was speechless from the sudden unexpected meeting. My head is white as a piece of blank sheet of paper.
Is this what people call "mental breakdown"? This dude, is that dude. Right? That emperor who kills Atanasia when she"s 18.
Wait, but why is he in front of me?! I"m only 5? This isn"t the emperor"s palace garden???!
The man who seemed to be in his 20s just kept on staring down at me with emotionless expression, then spoke.
"Well. It doesn"t concern me of who you are."
I didn"t have enough fine "mentalness" to be curious of what that meant. While I stared up at him having a mental breakdown, with very slow movements he lifted his hand up.
"Your majesty."
The knight who was standing behind him opened his mouth and called him.
I was just staring at the hand coming close to me with a stupid face.
Suddenly, his hand stopped moving. The next moment, he slowly started to examine me again.
Unbelievingly, he formed a faint smile on his emotionless face.
"Now I remember."
His eyes colour was now closer to the colour turquoise.
"Your name that women had made."
When he spoke the next words, I have exhaled all the air I held back.
"It was Atanasia."
I have returned. My heart started pounding again and I finally understood the situation. The knight at the back had a surprised expression as he never knew of my ident.i.ty.
"You were just an clump of blood the last time I saw you."
Actually, there was a time where Atanasia has met Claude before.
"You say that this thing"s name is Atanasia?"
In the original novel, it mentioned that they met when Atanasia was at the age of 9, but in reality, it was right after birth.
After that, Claude gives Atanasia his middle name. It was because she had caught his interest.
That is because in novel , only the ones who will take over the throne could get. No one else but the crown prince would get it if there were any other siblings but Atanasia was only child.
I have no idea what Diana was thinking but she had a lot of nerves to just give me a name like that.
"Very interesting."
As Lilly said, it wasn"t because of love that he had given me a middle name but he actually visited to kill.
"I wonder if you will be able to survive possessing that name."
Ha, then is the person who had intended to kill me before in front of me right now? Crazy.
Of course, I had expected something like this to happen but I really am going out of my mind.
"You"ve grown a lot."
You"ve grown a lot. Looks like you"ve lived enough so die! H-He won"t do that, right? It was written that he just ignored the 9 years old Atanasia! What about my plan of living quietly without making any fuss and escaping the palace?
Tick tick. Clang!
Just when I was having all that going in my head, something slipped down my leg and dropped to the ground.
Including me, all 3 people set their gaze on the place where the sound was made. There were a pocket bag gagging out all the s.h.i.+ny stuffs. The bunny eating carrot pattern on the pocket bag Hana made for me was really cute.
"......."
"......."
"......."
C-Crazy. I did felt that the string was loose but this crazy situation! How did my beauty #7 and beauty #8 all get caught like this!
I sweated as I glimpsed at the two person. Claude kept his emotionless face as he set his face facing the beauties and just rolled his eyes between me and the beauties.
And a moment later, he walked towards me.
Lift!
He just sticks his two hands between my arms and my body and lifts me up! Uhhh?!
Now really facing him face to face, we made eye contact. Surprised, I couldn"t even swear mentally.
W, What is happening?!
He just stared for a moment and spoke.
"Heavy much."
I had another mental breakdown from his... weird words?
"It looked as if your cheeks were going to burst but you really are heavy as expected."
......You CRAZED MAN! How dare you talk about weight of girls?! Absolutely bad mannered! I am not heavy at all? Also my cheeks are normal, like very?????
But wait, why are you talking to me? Aren"t you a psycho dad?! You"re the one who "Jennet- Only love" and "Atanasi Hmm", you doggy bast*rd!
"But what were you doing at my palace?"
I just cringed at that.
My palace. He says my palace. Well, all these were possession of the emperor, but seeing him wearing his comfortable clothes this probably really is a place he uses.
Uhh. What the h*ck. Maybe I really am curse. But really, this was the emperor"s palace? The place more emptier than how Ruby palace is?!
Craze. Crazy. Totally out of mind. Then how Atanasia had followed the light and met Claude was not a coincident but because of that the distance was so close?
The emotionless faced man turned to look at the place behind me. I knew what was laid behind me so there I was, sweating again.
The knight turned to see the bite mark on the golden angel statue"s b.u.t.t.
"She might have thought that it was a toy." He. Said.... (Knight)
Ahhhhh! You gonna kill meh? Kill meh? Gonna kill meh "cause I entered your palace without permission? Gonna kill meh "cause I bit your golden angel"s b.u.t.t? Gonna kill meh "cause I am living and had lived enough? HUH?!
"Seems like she"s lost playing in Ruby palace." The. Other. He. Said... (Claude)
I was again in middle of mental breakdown so I haven"t noticed that he had turned his face around.
"Phillix."
"Yes, your majesty."
"Hold."
I who was pa.s.sed to the knight saw the knight"s face closely. He was good looking. His face was expressing shock, well it probably is shocking thinking that Claude just picked me up and stuff.
