I am finally turning 10!!
It doesn't feel like it has been 2 years. You already know that the drill has not changed, sparring with Katrina for an hour, more training in the sword and bow, then learning new knowledge.
The only difference is that I have to go to more noble banquets and other things. I met a plethora of people.
Some have innocent intentions and have been forced to attend because of their parents. Others are trying to push their parents or own agenda, my father gives me information and I start to learn if people are lying or not, by discovering their tell, or other things.
It also gives me a reality check on how much scheming is used for extra money and power.
I see Katrina at some banquets I can tell she has grown but now I rarely get to play with her after the one-hour spar because of what she is supposed to learn.
I miss the interactions with her just hanging out, but it looks like she has a good head on her shoulder.
Just seeing people interact and dance with or without intentions helps me understand people just a little bit better.
On normal days it is training remember my training regiment well it got worse 1000 push up 1000 sit-ups and 100-mile run.
I am pushing my body because my body is always sore almost every day. The best part about it is Angelica has been nicer to me and she said it was because she doesn't know how to interact with children, so she defaulted to having a colder personality.
She realized I wasn't rude or a bad person so she started making her tone a bit more gentle and kind.
So while I was practicing with her I treated her like a partner or a person and not an object just like my mother taught me.
Eventually, she opened up to me enough to tell me about her past as a powerful Seqguin.
(Angelica POV Before becoming the weapon of Elevena)
I have been a weapon and partner for so many people but the longer I am with them the more greedy they get. I see so many of my previous partners fall from fame because they thought because they have me they can do anything and challenge an extremely hard foe. They end up dying or getting severely hurt.
I can reinforce them with mana and use Holy Lightning but if they get hit once they die.
But they don't think about it all they end up thinking about is how much money and fame they are going to get for killing this foe. They end up making one mistake and they are dead.
Some other partners seem to have good intentions and end up tricking me into a contract them they use me to do atrocious acts.
Like murdering innocent people because they can't accept "monsters" in our kingdom or other things like mass murder, or luring girls and mentally breaking them.
There was one other group who only treated me like a weapon and nothing else and never asked if I was ok.
I was neglected and not taken care of well. They would only sharpen and do maintenance on me as minimally as possible.
They kept on pushing even when I advise them not to and when I was damaged kept using me even though they noticed and had many opportunities to repair me by giving me mana stones.
I would sometimes be sold by my owner for extra money when I am transformed into my humanoid form I would be sexualized because of my "Perfect body with E-cup boobs". Sometimes they would try to rape or sexually assault me.
But finally, after many years, I met my greatest partner Elevena.
(Serules/Seer POV)
She told me about her past I cried, and my first reaction was to hug her, but her body instinctually moved away. So apologized and she hugged me back saying it was ok.
That was the day when she opened up she also told me that because of all the bad interactions with people she originally could trust me just because I was the child of Elevena.
She also told me that she has seen the children of her previous partners do horrible things even when the parents did a good job at raising them because "Humans are very unpredictable".
I forgave her and I started applying oil (because she is in sword form) and gently wipe it off.
I made a vow to myself that day that If I ever make a contract with any Seqguin or make a contract with her I will treat them with the proper respect and love.
(King POV)
So have you mapped out that child's route yet?
"Yes my Liege," said a servant.
"I am sorry If I am overstepping my bounds but why did I do this now and not earlier," said the servant
"Our court contractor just found out about his ability because he has reached a point where the Seqguin and the contractor have enough favorability or affection (not necessarily love but there are no laws against it, but it is really hard to find a humanoid one no one legally marries a Seqguin) to say all of its abilities and past." the King said.
"Get the plan ready the next available day they are going out and make sure the family can't say anything one way or another, ooh, and make it look like an accident," said the king.
(Serules/Seer POV) Also, I want to inform you everyone will call him seer unless it is in a formal setting which normally would be first and last name
For my birthday took a break from training and we celebrated by playing games with my father and mother, Angelica also took humanoid form, it was the first time I saw her in humanoid form.
She was 6"4", had Golden Lustrous hair that when down to her back, red Crimson eyes, White wings on her back, and pearl skin, some would say she looked like an angel.
I think she is an angel in human form.
I also grew, I am now 5 foot.
