Chereads / Who Are You? / Chapter 3 - Reborn Again

Chapter 3 - Reborn Again

Darkness...

There's nothing here only darkness...

'Is this really what they called 'Eternal Slumber'?'

'I imagine it like there's a white bed in the middle of a white area instead of darkness and there's a flower all over the bed and there is an angel that will guide me there and I will lose my conscious forever but...'

'It's nothing like I imagine!'

'And why am I not sleeping? Why? Just... why?'

'Sign, there's nothing to argue about but I'm still bored. I'll just check my status'

{Status Open}

ERROR

'Sign, don't tell me I will reborn again?'

'Huh'

I saw a light that binding my eyes and I closed it cause it huts my eyes.

"Gahh"

I got up of the bed... BED?!

I look all over the room that feels like familiar to me and I realize that this room is the same as my first life.

'Don't tell me what am I thinking is right?'"No-no-no-no-no."

I look around again and found a mirror and ran towards it to confirm it and I saw a little girl around nine years old with longish slightly curly silver hair and Crystal light-blue eyes wearing a light blue night gown.

"THIS CAN'T BE RIGHT!!" I screamed loudly enough for the others to hear. I heard a footstep running toward me and I saw Hailey.

"Your highness! What happened? Did something happened to you?" Hailey asked and I felt tears are falling into my face.

"Hiccup, hiccup. H-Hailey? A-Are you really Hailey?" I asked and I ran towards her and hugged her tightly.

"Y-Your highness, what happened to you? Are you okay?" She asked while hugging me back.

"H-Hailey, I promised t-that I will never ever again try to be acknowledge by father and brother. S-So promise me that you will never leave me again." I said murmured the last one.

Hailey seems surprise to my action but accept it nonetheless.

"Yes, Your highness. I will never leave you all my life." She said trying to calm me down while patting my back.

I smiled at her signing that I already calmed down and we broke the hug with a comfortable silence.

"Hailey, p-please bring me hot chocolate drink and some snacks." I commanded with a solf voice.

"Yes your highness, please wait a moment." She said and left through the door.

I am a person that easy to accept everything without panicking so I calmly think of a solution about avoiding my execution but for now, I need a break because I still feel the pain of getting hit by a car.

The maid that you saw earlier is Hailey Lynthon. She is only maid that I trusted and she is also the head maid here. She has last name because she's from a noble family. My mother trusted me to her because she's my mother's trusted maid. She loved me with all her heart but she got executed a week before I died. That's why I'm so angry to my 'family' here. (She doesn't know that I'm just pretending).

Base on my appearance, I looked like when I was nine years old. I will ask Hailey later. I can't prevent about Irene coming here but I can stop her from bullying me and I'm not going to held back anymore. I'm not planning on revenging on them because first, It's too troublesome. Second, I'm not really going to be happy about it and lastly, I'm sure that my 'normal life' will be gone if I'm planning the revenge thingy because it needs many people so no.

I'm basically planning on avoiding them like stranger. If they don't treat me like family, then I'll treat them the same. I've read many webnovels and wattpad stories like this that they are avoiding the main characters but they will end up meeting them but I don't care. I looked at my status again thinking that maybe it went back to normal.

Note: Hello Selene! I know that you are confuse what happened about your status now. I can't explain it to you now but I will ensure you that all of your status last time is still in you but it's still locked and will only be unlock when the time comes. So, enjoy!

PS: You can used It only when you're on your space.

'What the hell! Who are they to manipulate my status?!'

'Sign, at least I can still used it on my space nonetheless.'

I can practice it when I have free time. I didn't really see them always only when Irene telling her dad to let me joined them dinner or when I'm pretending in front of them. But now I will not going to visit them even if they requested it because I don't care.

If they have problem with me not accepting their request, I'm going to fight them face to face. Even if my status is really weak and I'm weak, I will not let them to destroy my life again.

'Wait, I'm only nine years old now so why do I have my status already?'

'Maybe because of my real age'

All the children turning ten years old are the one who will receive their status at the temple. Royals can have their status anytime at the age of ten but the nobles and commoners has specific time for them o have status but of course, the nobles will have special treatment. I really hate this world's policies.

I still have three or more years before going to the Academy so I don't have to worry about the Love Interest and the Hidden. I just need to be worry about Irene, her dad, and her brother. Then I entered the Academy, the roles will turn.

I heard a knock through my door and I said "Come in"

I saw Hailey holding my hot chocolate drink and snacks and my eyes sparkled. I really like chocolate drinks so that's just given.

"Your highness, I brought your chocolate drink. Here." I took the the drink and started drinking it.

'I really like it more if there's marshmallow but sadly, marshmallow doesn't exist here.' I sigh mentally.

"Oh, Hailey." I called her.

"Yes your highness?" She asked.

"How hold I am now again and what date is today?" I asked

She looks a bit confuse why I asked that kind of question but answer nonetheless.

"Ara, did your highness forgot it?" She asked and I just nodded

"It's your highness tenth birthday in the next three weeks and it's September 19 XXX." She said and I thanked her.

'So I'm really nine years old huh.'

'That means I still have two more years before the main story begins.'

I look over my chocolate drink again and there's no more left so I gave it to Hailey and she said hesitantly,

"Your highness, his majesty asked for your presence at dinner later. His majesty said that he has something important to say to you." She finished saying and bow at me while I'm nodded at her and she left.

'I really don't want to go but I don't want to create trouble when I just got here. Also, I was curious about what 'important' he is going to say.'

-Time Skip-

I walked through the corridors at the emperor's castle still didn't recover about the pain I felt earlier and I stopped when I saw a big door that I still remember it was his study room. I'm still battling if I'm just going to keep my act or not so I'm still outside

'If I keep my act up, I will not be In trouble but I already promised Hailey that I will stopped trying to get their attention. Also, Irene will still freely bully me because of that and my death will still happened.'

'On the contrary, If I suddenly act different in just one night, It will gain attention to the others and I will be in trouble.'

On a second, I realize that I started to panic and put my thoughts aside and calmed myself.

'Where the hell is my 'always calm' attitude go?!'

"Sigh, maybe I should pick the second." I mumbled while knocking at the door.

I heard a voice said "come in" and I opened the door.

I saw a familiar man with a Golden blonde hair and fiery crystal dark-blue eyes. He has an intimidating aura around him that will made other people feel inferior to him. Well at least not me. I wonder how Irene can stand this person without fainting.

I heard a pop sound coming from the top of my brain and remember his name.

'Claude Julius Thermopolis'

Anger is running on my vein but it stopped when he looked at me coldly.

I waste not time and bow at him showing courtesy.

"Your majesty, I heard to my servant that you are calling for me and you have something important to say to me. May I ask what is it?" I asked

I looked at him and I saw his face looked shock but brush it of like it never happened.

He then nodded and said,

"I'm informing you that tomorrow morning, you will have status with Irene and Claurus and I will come with you so clear your schedule for tomorrow." He said and I'm here confuse.

'This didn't happened before. Did I already messed many things? Maybe because of Hailey.'

'Wait, Irene and I are still not in the right age to get our status so why?'

"Pardon for my insolence your majesty but, Isn't it too early for us to get our status? We are not Ten years old yet."I asked and looked at him expecting an answer.

"Royalties are exception. They can have their status before they turn ten years old. Enough for today you can now leave." He said with a cold voice but I'm happy that he answer my question.

I bowed to him and leave he room. I returned to my room, locked the door and lie on the bed.

"I need to change my status because to them, my current status is still powerful so I need to lower it and become normal. I also need to remove the reincarnator thingy in my status." I said and

I chanted while imagining the my status change to what I want it to be. And I looked at my status again if the spell worked or not.

And it worked!

I looked at my status and feel satisfied and called the maids to change my clothes into night gowns and told them to cleared all my schedule for tomorrow. Also to wake me up early in the morning. All the servants leaved and I go to the bed and sleep

-In The Morning-

I opened my eyes because Hailey is waking me up. I got up to bed and made the maids prepare me because I'm going out.

"Your highness, what type of dress you will wear?" One of the maids asked.

"The simple one." I said

"As you wish, your highness." She said picking a simple light blue dress with a light blue bow on the back.

I finished preparing and left to meet the others.

I saw a light brown haired girl with crystal dark blue eyes and already knew who she was.

'Irene Dinah Thermopolis'

She is wearing a light pink loli dress with a light pink wide hat.

'She doesn't look good at the dress but she still wearing it? Shameless'

She looked at me with a mocking face but I just ignored it. She looked pissed at my action but holding it because her father is here.

I also noticed a man a few years older that me and He look like a younger Claude but with crystal light blue eyes and his name is,

'Claurus Kiele Thermopolis'

When he sense that I'm looking at me, he turn his gaze to me with a cold look. I quickly break my eyes from him to the ground.

'Sigh, this is gonna be a troublesome day.'

I looked In my front when I saw two carriage in front of me.

"You will be alone in that carriage." He casually said and they happily left me standing there.

'What the hell.'

I go inside the carriage and it started moving.

-Time Skip-

We are now at the front of the church. We came in and the people there is starting to greet the three except me. I couldn't care less.

I saw a woman with a cherry pink hair and emerald eyes coming towards us.

"Greetings your majesty, your highnesses. I'm Melina Rias, I'm going to guide you to the main church." she said with courtesy.

"Okay, guide us there." Claude commanded as we walked again.

We walked at the long corridor and saw a huge door like Claude's study room. Melina opened the door and she left and we saw a priest and tell us two what we are going to do.

"Greetings your highnesses, please listen to what I'm going to say. First, you need to walk at through the aisle ad stop if you are now in the front aisle. Second, kneel down and close your hand together like what we are doing when praying. Lastly, close your eyes and say, 'May the God who Created the World Bestow me a Status full of your Blessings.' Okay?."

We both nodded in understanding and Irene go first.

She did what the priest told to us earlier and a second later her status appeared out of nowhere.

"Wow! Looked Irene. You have two types of magic." Claurus happily said.

They're having their lovely dovely moments and I'm getting bored so I interrupted them.

"Cough, Its my turn."

That successfully caught their attention and turn to their 'normal' self.

I also do what Irene did earlier and the last part.

"May the God who Created the World Bestow me a Status full of your Blessings."

I said and feels like nothing happened.

I opened my eyes and suddenly losing my consciousness.

I feel like I'm getting devours by the monster called,

"Nothingness"
