I've never felt this alright before, as if this body wasn't a sickly child.
I could vividly remember my body engulfed with warm light when I faint last night before it disappeared in a couple minutes.
I sighed clasping my cheeks which made my brother tilt his head, watching me in amusement.
I stuck my tongue out quickly and focus back on my food that the servant place in front of me, which made my brother's eyes widen, while dad is busy reading his news paper for today.
I grab my fork, layering the egg, bacon and the slice of creamy blue cheese on top of one of my waffle, and place the last piece of waffle on top, it's like the breakfast sandwich I like the most in my previous modern life.
"You're playing with your food again." my brother pointed out in a hush as I puff my cheeks and grab my for and bread knife.
I slice a piece and gather it with my fork and eat, I nodded and continue eating.
"Is it that good?" my brother asked curiously as I nodded with a hum.
"A waffle sandwich." I mumbled while dad flip his news paper.
"Dad, Is this the side effect of the high priestess' healing? Turning the baby into a hamster every time she recovers? She even ate vegetables back in the temple like she was starved for ages."
"Hey!" I argued while my dad's hands that's been holding the newspaper, tremble a bit, he looks taken aback and cleared his throat, both their auras are bright yellow.
"Did you just hey me?" my brother asked in disbelief, I huffed ignoring him and continue eating my breakfast.
I ignore him and continue finishing my meal, Wendy place a small silver plate of 2 pieces of plain chocolate nuggets, like a reward every time I finish my food.
I took my treat to my hearts content, drinking along the warm milk, I was done first.
"Go clean up and change her clothing for the hunting." dad appointed Wendy and Daisy who both bowed and help me off my seat, Sir Ulysses pick me up instantly and we all left the dinning room.
I stuck my tongue out to my brother again who's jaw drop in disbelief and amusement, till we're out of his sight, Daisy giggled which made me look at her, flustered and even Wendy is stifling a laugh.
I was led to my room, Sir Ulysses waited outside and Wendy shut the door, taking me to the connected bathroom while Daisy prepared my clothes and accessories.
The preparation took only a bit and I was dressed with my under clothing, white stockings and a pale powdery pink chiffon dress with lilac silk belt.
It has a boatneck with lace and layered short and long puffed sleeves with lace on the ends, the edge of the dress have lace and frills it looks so fluffy and it's light to wear.
It comes with a lace choker and bonnet that has a frill and lace that matched the color of the pale powdery pink dress while my shoes are silk ankle boots that matches my lilac silk belt.
Wendy tied my hair half twisted braid and the other half was gathered altogether with the braid, turning it into a low ponytail.
Daisy put my insignia on my choker carefully while Wendy put a gold moonstone dangly earrings on me, which compliments well with my clothes.
Daisy take out a black with gold embellish coat that almost resembles the one I wore from yesterday.
I was done and led outside, to be greeted by my brother waiting outside with Sir Ulysses and Sir Colin, my brother is wearing a wine colored loose long puffed sleeves silk shirt tucked in his and high waist jet black pants, black combat boots. his black with gold embellishment cape that looks exactly as the one I'm wearing, with a sword on his left hooked on his black leather sword belt and hanger, while the knights are on the almost same clothing but with only a plain black velvety cape.
Sir Ulysses pick me up as I let him and watch them all converse with my brother, while Wendy and Daisy run their way quickly to change clothes on the rush.
They have enough time since everyone is still preparing the carriage and the knights being instructed by Sir Rupert and Viscount Terezia on what to do later since there's only 10 selected knights to join my brother and Sir Paul for the hunting, and other 20 to accompany us on the way.
We were led downstairs to the hall and proceed to the courtyard where dad is waiting with the knights.
He's wearing a casual black loose long puffed sleeve silk shirt tuck in a black high waist trousers too with black leather sword belt and hanger and a military boots, along his black with gold detailed cape which isn't really a surprise that him and my brother almost matches every time, they both like dark colored clothing so much, and made me wear a piece that matches them like this coat right now.
I'm not going to be so shock if they do the same on the crown prince's birthday banquet tonight.
It only took awhile with Wendy and daisy, running down both dressed up in a both in their white cotton puffed top sleeves and a gathered back yoke, lace-edged peter pan collar and four button barrel cuffs, inset pleated bib, and dainty buttons fastening up the front placket, ending at the collar, with delicate lace embellished vertically down the bosom lining either side of the full placket, and a black colored high waist floor length walking skirts and their hairs both tied in low bun style, and boater hats with black ribbons, their worker insignias are pinned on the left side of their black velvety capes, they both have 4 big luggage bags and one black leather duffle bag in hands.
They greeted us and quickly loading the luggage bags in the carriage on the left, while Wendy place the duffle bag on the right which is the same carriage I took yesterday.
"Take her to the carriage." my father said after he finally dismiss the knight to take their horses, Wendy was appointed again as I was passed to Wendy and we enter the carriage with Daisy, while Sir Ulysses take his horse along with my dad, my brother, Sir Rupert, Sir Orion and Sir Colin, along with some more knights.
The carriage go, as I noticed the other carriage following us where the luggage bags were loaded.
We watch as Mister Gilbert and Madame Zola wave goodbye with a bright expression among the other servants, till we pass the portcullis and draw bridge.
It took awhile to get to the hunting ground, we were led to a gate pass the city on the wester part, till we go farther and enter a forest of giant acer maple trees all in full bloom everywhere along oak and elder trees, there is a giant conservatory glass house in the middle where the people are, the horses are waiting by the trees with other knights conversing on standby and even some lords from nobles without any discrimination, there is a stage in front of the conservatory decorated with the emperor's seat and a few chairs for the ladies who aren't really encourage to join and has a tea party ready and prepared in the conservatory.
Our carriage stop and Sir Ulysses open the door for us, Wendy and Daisy headed out first, both with white and gold chiffon lace parasols, opening it both and assisted me out.
I feel overwhelmed again with the amount of people, but odd enough, their auras scents become more intense and easier to see and point out even by afar.
I used to only smell the auras when they're on close distance, but it's different right now.
I thought after the awakening I'll be able to at least control my senses but it just gotten worst,
The only good thing is I don't feel my body weakening at all, I feel alright.
"Thea." My father pick me up which startle me as he grab the back of my head and hide my face against his shoulder.
"Do you want to go back home? We can just go if you don't feel well." My father muttered to me as I sighed deeply and shook my head.
"I'm alright dad." I mumbled as he hummed with a doubt.
"If it wasn't for the Emperor's order in front of the delegates, I wouldn't take you in this place." he mumbled to himself and walk while Wendy and Daisy followed behind my brother, Sir Rupert, Viscount Terezia, Sir Paul and the other knights with Sir Ulysses.
Wendy, Daisy and the knights aura are all light purple and pink, my brother have a neutral yellow aura, Sir Paul have a bright yellow one in excitement.
I look around to see people immediately bowing after catching a sight of us, I was put down on my feet and my brother reach out to me as I held his arm and stand between him and Sir Paul, we entered the glass conservatory, which is a size of a big mansion and decorated with red and gold with various of plants.
"His Grace, Grand Duke Aether Khalid Agyros of Wisteria." The announcer introduced as we enter, starting with my father, my brother and I were introduced too, followed by the Viscount and the knights.
We stop in front of the emperor who's sitting on his throne leisurely as we bowed in sync to greet the man.
The emperor dismiss the formal greeting standing up with his cup of wine in hand while the Viscount and Sir Paul left to go to the Viscountess who's already standing on the table with other wives and duchesses, the knights lefts along with Wendy and Daisy to standby outside, leaving me and my brother next to dad and the Emperor.
"I'm looking forward to see what the Grand Duke's heir apparent will catch, Calix is being accompanied by the scholars and the other kids, you might want to see them before the hunt, they're out there preparing." The emperor pointed on his left, I look and see a group of boys and girls conversing.
My brother hesitantly look down to me and squeeze my hand slightly as I frown when I heard something crack, like a glass break by afar, I suddenly feel a heavy energy and the ground shake slightly as I look down the floor.
I turn to my right where I can feel the vibration is coming from, it's from the pathway where the hunt will be held, in the dark part of the forest.
"T-The ground is shaking." I mumbled nervously, the forest, it's not dark, the sun is up for it to look this dark in my sight.
'Why suddenly?'
'Why is there a black aura coming from the forest as if it's alive?'
'The aura.'
"You felt the vibration from the ground just now?" the emperor asked which startled me, bowing my head down.
"She wasn't feeling well since last night and had to get the high priestess' help to easy my sickly daughter, his imperial highness is aware how weak this child is no matter how bright she is." my dad said, picking me up quickly as I feel like throwing up, I bite my tongue, wanting to run away.
'What is happening over there?'
"Take her at the end of the garden, there is a Wisteria planted next to the gazebo casted, you can put her guardians there with her while the event is going, no one is allowed to get there without my permission so no one will bother the child resting." the emperor said as my father bowed and the emperor who seem genuinely worried with grayish yellow aura surrounding him just exactly like my dad and my brother's aura turned.
Dad called Sir Ulysses, Sir Orion, Wendy and Daisy who saw us and enter the conservatory again.
"Nitro, lead them to the gazebo, only the grand ducal people are allowed to have an access, the little lady needs a rest." the emperor appointed an imperial knight who immediately bowed stating he heeds his command, greeting my father who thank the emperor.
We were dismissed and was led to go at the back, I can sense people eyeing our way as we go further in the conservatory.
I still feel the aura getting stronger from the forest.
