Chapter 1 - Prolouge

Where am I?

Why does my heart feels so heavy?

What's happening to me?

'Huh, where am I? this place, it's different from my room'

He found himself lying in bed, surrounded by two maids.

The maids were standing near him looking nervous.

'Where exactly am I? My body feels so weak and numb. I don't even feel like moving my lips, it's as if I'm paralyzed.'

[You have successfully reincarnated]

A large blue screen pops up in front of him with the message written 'You have successfully reincarnated.'

'Reincarnated? Is this a dream?'

Leo looks around the place, the room was unusually too big, it's as if he was a royal child.

'Could I have possibly reincarnated as a royal? My body.... it seems I've reincarnated in a child's body.'

Surprisingly he was quite adaptable to the situation and didn't showed any reaction other than amazement.

"Shouldn't we call Sir William?" A young maid with dark black eyes dyed with green hair excitedly spoke to other maid. The other maid had brown eyes with black hair.

Suddenly, a beautiful blonde woman comes in along with a gentleman dressed in fully black suit behind her.

The gentleman looked very shocked and smiled slightly.

"How long has it been since he woke up?" the gentleman spoke.

'I wonder who is he? He looks like a very rich old man, could he be the father of this child?' Leo carefully observes him.

"Just a few minutes ago, sir" one of the maids hurriedly replied.

The blonde woman calmly goes near Leo and puts her palm on his head and starts enchanting something. A blue light started glowing from her.

'So this is magic of this world? Amazing.'

After a short while the woman pauses for some time. "Well that's odd, he doesn't seem to have any kind of sickness despite having badly affected by demon's curse just few months ago." She looked at the kid with an uncertain face. "Anyways, for now he is totally save. I'll be taking my leave now, well then William farewell." The woman shook her head and bid farewell to both William and Leo

William takes off his hat and speaks to the child. "Young Master, it's been so long." William looked very happy and relaxed.

'Young Master?' Leo looked confused.

"Are you referring to me as Young Master?"

William seemed confused to Leo's unexpected question. 'Wait I thought he was the father or something.'

"You don't remember me, young master?"

"No I don't."

'This is bad, what if he thinks some outsider took control over this body? Well considering the fact that this is a totally unknown world where magic exist, I fear but is 100% possible.'

"It seems I've lost my memories, well my head also hurts a lot."

'It seems like young master has lost his memories, is it because of the illness he had previously or is there something else that?'

'After seeing how he put some deep thoughts about it, he might sooner or later found out that I've taken over this body, I have to shift his total attention elsewhere. He looks like a very smart old man just from looking at him.

"Anyways William, do you have any cure for this?" Leo changes his tone to sound very serious. 'Wasn't his name William, I can't let him find out about this secret, not until I've figured out about this whole situation.

"It seems the Demon's curse hasn't been totally cured yet, Young master!"

William seemed quite calm, almost as if he expected such situation to occur. 'Demon's curse, what a mysterious curse.'

William suddenly kneels down and speaks up as he raises his head. "Young Master, I am the head butler of the Mizaki family, and you are Leo Mizaki, son of Leon Mizaki. The Head of the Mizaki Family.

'So I'm a noble not royal?'

"Since you call me young master, does this mean I am your master?"

"Yes, young master!"

"I see." Leo looked relieved as he speaks.

"Then head butler William, I request you to bring me some food quickly, I am very hungry."

"Understood" William immediately goes away.

Leo turns around at the maids standing there.

"You two, tell me everything you know about my past life, also where are my parents? "

Both the maids kept quite, their expression looked sad. The room felt silent for a moment.

_______

Four years ago, the boy 'Leo' was traveling along with his parents in their carriage. The family looked very happy and enjoying their ride. The father looked very strong, he had a scar on his face, while the mother looked very young at around her 20s.

Suddenly, as they were passing by the dark tunnel, an elite group of dark hunters called "Evil Eyes" ambushed them as soon as they got out of the tunnel. They had nowhere to run, evil eyes had surrounded them. The parents ordered William to take the child and run away.

"I can't leave you both alone, I would rather die." William started to revolt.

Despite William trying to revolt against their decisions, he couldn't persuade them.

The parents fought bravely against the enemies, they were evenly matched but the outcome was clear. They were totally outnumbered. As they stalled time, William ran very fast and somehow managed got out of thier reach. "I feel so helpless" William was very frustrated, he was full of tears as he ran.

"Should we let them get away?" A beast looking guy pointed out to them.

"Let them be, our mission was to simple eliminate Duke Leon." A woman wearing a red armor dress spoke.

William brought Leo to the capital city, and later found out that the evil eye had put a curse on him, and hasn't woke up since then.

"And that's how you ended up in this state, young master." The maid spoke.

Both the maids looked very sad and the room was silent.

'I take back my words, this guy must have had to endure lots.'

"I see....This is truly sad to hear."

Suddenly William shows up.

"Young master the food is ready. Chester bring them inside." William snaps his fingers as he ordered them.

There were many dishes on the wheel table, the amount of dishes were in quite a large number. As the dishes were served to him, he swallowed deep down his saliva.

As he consumed the food, the screen starts popping up again.

"I'm sorry, please ignore my stupid words."

"So your name is Maria, what about you?"

"I see. Anyways don't worry, I was just enchanting a spell, it requires inner speech you know!"

'Well it's half right and half wrong, either way I should not repeat this same mistake, not in front of William.'

"Are you serious, what kind of spell were you enchanting young master" Levy asks full of curiosity on her face.

Maria coughs "Ahemmm"

"I'm sorry, I got too excited, forgive me young master."

"My spell is still incomplete, I still need to regain my composure first. So I can't show you the spell now. Anyways I'm feeling tired, close the curtains and don't let anyone enter for sometime unless it's an emergency, understood?."
