"Gloria can you bring the medicine to the lady, I am busy with the laundry"
lily was running through the kitchen with a basket full of dress in her hand, Gloria nodded and left to lapiz's room
"My lady"?
She said by knocking on the door, a slight voice came from inside which was in soo much pain, Gloria tilted her head and opened the door only to see lapiz on the floor lying
"M-MY LADY"!!
Gloria ran to lapiz and helped her sit down on the bed, she was breathing really heavily, which made Gloria scared
"Are you alright, do you need water"??
Gloria shuttered while talking to lapiz she patted lapiz's back and helped her breath slowly
'haaaahhh'
lapiz exhaled deeply and stood straight
"Gloria"?
She said while glancing at Gloria who was sweating
"WHAT WERE YOU DOING ON THE FLOOR"
Gloria asked in a louder voice while also shutting her eyes
"Ah, I was just walking by myself…"
Lapiz felt into a moment of silence while Gloria looked at her suspiciously, Gloria continued her job after lapiz calmed down and gave her the medicine
'it's been 1 month since I last came to this world, although everyone got used to my stubborn self, I still don't get used to it'
lapiz laid on the bed by herself and toke a deep breath
'I still can't walk properly, even though I have been training since I woke up'
lapiz looked at Gloria who was leaving the room with the empty glass and closed her eyes
'I need to learn how to walk soon or else I will be locked in this room for years'
lapiz again sat down after Gloria left and tried walking on her own her legs were shaking, but she almost had control over them her hands were fully controlled while her body was still shaking
'Sebastian and maria are teaching me the history and politics, but that won't be enough'
she slowly tried to walk while still shaking her whole body
'I need to see everything for myself, or I won't understand anything about this place and also about the curse'
lapiz finally reached the doors and opened it with all her might
'Why does the door have to be this big'?!
She thought to herself while struggling to open it
'phew am out'
she walked on the hall and saw no maids around which was really weird
'hmm this is suspicious, oh well at least they won't stop me from walking on my own'
lapiz reached the long staircase and looked down in terror
'hey, don't you think the stairs are a bit too long'
she swallowed her own saliva and started walking downstairs while holding to the wall
'this world is in the hundreds, so mobile phones nor laptops don't exist in here'
she slowly walked downstairs while being in her own dreamworld
'that's a pity since the thing I exceeded most in my past life was laptops and phone'
she finally reached the bottom and started looking for everyone, but no one was around
'I think this is getting dangerous, where are the maids'?
Lapiz suddenly slipped through the floor and fell down, she lost control in her legs because she walked too much
'Ouch'!
"That hurts"!
She looked around for anyone to lift her up but then again no one was around
"sighhhhh talk about bad luck"
lapiz tried to pull her up but wasn't able to, she suddenly sensed that there was a fog going around the mansion
'what's going on everything's turning blurry'
she felt like sleeping and saw a shadow in front of her
"you must have had a death wish anyway, this made it easier for me to kill you"
lapiz tried looking up and heard a man's voice she rubbed her eyes and saw a sword in their hand
'a sword oh wait yeah Sebastian did tell me that people will try to assassinate me, so I guess this is a part of it'
lapiz looked down and smirked
'for some reason I don't feel afraid at all, maybe it's because I died way worse than this'
she fell asleep on the floor and felt the stranger grabbing her hair and putting the sword on her neck
"
It's too bad that you have to die here, I hope you will get a second chance"
as the stranger was near to cut lapiz's neck, he felt a dangerous aura behind them and suddenly backed down
"W-WHAT THE"
he screamed out loud and saw another a who was taller than him stand there while protecting lapiz
"w-who are you"
he asked the man
"have you ever heard of the fiancé of lapiz lazuli I guess I am that fiancé"
dark blue hair with a blackish red eyes he was really tall but was strong but didn't look that muscular he was wearing a long coat which was drenched in water his face was blurry because the hair was down
"T-THE DUKE"?!
He screamed and ran to the door but was blocked by a white haired kid who was around 18
"oh well, you ain't gonna escape this place from meh"
a boy with a strange accent blocked him, the boy had white hair and red eyes beside him were 5 more knights who were pulling their sword
'the white tiger too'?!
the assassin was captured by the white haired boy while the duke carried lapiz
"put him to sleep and had him over to Gautier"
the duke ordered the whitey and walked upstairs with lapiz on his hand
"the first time I see you was when you were gonna die huh"
he entered lapiz's room and laid her on the bed, he sat on the chair and brushed his hair upside using his hands
'hmm, I wonder how long it will take for Sebastian to wake up'
he looked at lapiz and pinched her cheek while having a small smile
'I at least wanted to hear your voice'
he waited for the knights to come in while draining himself from the towel on the table
"your grace everything is done"
the whitey knocked on the door and entered the room
"well done lio now give the medicine to the poison to Sebastian and let him wake up"
'I should just wait till lapiz wake up rather than giving her the medicine'
