Chereads / Reincarnation: I am the immortal witch / Chapter 2 - Ch. 1: Who am i

Chapter 2 - Ch. 1: Who am i

In her infant years, Jessica Salva has adapted to answering to a new name. Lilith Aria Rosewood. Her name sounded so beautiful that she loved it. When she grasped how to control her limbs. she learned to write her name first before learning to walk. Learning to speak was also easy as it's a matter of how her tongue would grow and how she can control it. She was hailed a genius baby in their duchy. Yes, a duchy. She, a former star, is now the youngest daughter of a high ranking noble in another world! How lavish her lifestyle is.

Later, she learned she has a brother. His was Luther Alec Rosewood. He's only 2 years older than her but when she saw him, she thought Her brother was the cutest baby she's ever seen. Unlike her, he got our mother's golden, wavy hair. His eyes were like our dad's, only lighter with it's sparkle of curiosity and youth. He was just simple a small cherub in her eyes. When Lilith got a little bigger and was able to walk steadily, the nanny allowed her to play with his brother in his playroom from time to time. Lilith didn't play but instead look after her favorite brother. Luther seemed to love her, too. And their mom will watch them sometimes when she got time. The only busy one is the duke.

Lilith didn't even know her father's name until she turned 4 years old. While she heard her mother's name from the nanny early on. Her mother's name was Rebecca Claire Windsor-Rosewood. Her name suits her very much. Beautiful! Of course, with these beautiful people for my family, I already expect my appearance to be no-joke as well. But when she saw herself, she only saw a feminine version of her dad. 'I look like a villain.' I thought. She seems to remember playing an Otome game with a woman that looks like this. She's still beautiful but not like the Angelic beauty that she's use to. This face can go to Boenan and fight a demon with it.

A lot of the fairytales she heard from her Nanny Aurelie were always about the heroes that ventures in the barren land of Boenan in a quest to defeat a demon king. With this, Lilith is convinced that she reincarnated in an RPG-like fantasy world. With magic and stuff. But when she ask her brother, her brother easily levitates a few toys bragging about his magic. Lilith tried many times to manifest her magic, but failed each time. Her mother comforted her that her magic will develop when she's older, but she suspect that her past life's memory has something to do with it. She was 8 years old when her mother started bringing her around to acquaint herself to other noble kids. She became friends with 2 girls. Jane Castor, Eugenia Philips and her best friend, Ashley Benson. They were all of lower rank nobility but Lilith doesn't care about it.

But her father, Duke Lucian Ares Rosewood, compelled her to befriend another princess in another duchy, Scarlet Miriam Kinsley. Scarlet was Ten times more arrogant than her. Spoiled, too. And a true definition of a 'Blonde bimbo'. She's blonde too but she's not dumb! And Scarlet makes her group look like a group of Villainess. Her looks combined with Scarlet's can scare a horde of demons! And that's a lot basing how were still kids! Right now Scarlet's spoiled attitude is still in the mild level. Lilith is Scared to even think how is she gonna turn out when they got older. Because she already can imagine what she's going to be like.

In her 10th birthday party, Her father reared her extra hard for the occasion. The Royal family was said to be attending. She doesn't know why but Her father kept on telling her meticulous advice in how to face these special guests. The Royal family consist of King Arthuria Lewis Tigris the Fourth, the fifth died in a war against the demons a few months before they were born. The mother of the prince, Princess Naomi Kurshar, is a Halfling known only for her amazing magic abilities. She used to be a disciple of a famous witch. And lastly, The Crown Prince... Prince Alexis Ludwig Tigris. Another Genius of the Empire. I expected as much but my friends told me that Prince Alexis was talented in both academic, swordmanship and magic. I wasn't convinced at first but Luther learned wielding a sword early, too. So I guess, it's possible. No one met the prince before because he was tightly guarded in his early years. This was his first time making appearance which is an honor for the Rosewood family.

The Party has started and everyone is excitedly waiting for the royal family's arrival which turned Lilith's mood a bit sour. ' Who's party is this anyway?! Isn't this my birthday?' Everyone's attention is at the door waiting for the Royal family's arrival. But even with this, Lilith continued to smile as she greet the guest with her mom and dad. All four of them wore matching outfits, mother's idea I bet. Luther wore a sky blue miniature version of our dad's dark, navy blue Tuxedo suit. While she wore midnight blue gown with gauzy sleeves that show-off her cute shoulders, studded with diamonds as she requested. Her mom wore white gown with blue and silver embroidery and match it with Blue Sapphire jewelry set. We're basically the entire color palette in our family crest. I don't hate it though, because I love the color blue.

Lilith was talking with her friends to relax for a little while when the announcement that the Royal family has arrived. 'One hour late, since it's the royal family I'll forgive it...' She thought. The Family of three walk with unique elegance and powerful aura as they make their way towards Duke Rosewood. The king has a emotionless face but still has regal features that shows how beautiful he used to be, He gave a small smile to my father as he approached but the two people behind has a polite smile in their faces ever since they arrived. The mother and son looks so beautiful with the elf blood in their veins. Prince Alexis, look even taller than most of us ten years old. With his elf blood, his ears is slightly pointed unlike her mother who has a pointed ears. Sensing that she needs to be at her father's side, Lilith excused herself to her peers and walk straight to her father. When she arrived, her father has already greeted the Royal family, So. she greets them along with her mom. "Greetings, to the Wise Ruler of the the empire. Our Wise king Arthuria Tigris the Fourth. Greetings to our Princess and the little prince." We greeted in unison, the only one missing is my brother who is probably playing somewhere around the courtyard or the garden. "Arise, ladies." The king said. We only stopped Bowing then.

"I see, this is your daughter... The Bright star of the duchy. Nice to meet you, Lady Lilith Rosewood. And so good to see you again, Duchess. The palace has been extremely busy. It would be nice if you visit Princess Naomi more." By this time Prince Alexis took a step forward, standing beside the king with his eyes intently perusing Lilith. "I'll be making the announcement now, Is it okay, duke?" The king said with meaning. Lilith is confused but still kept quiet. The Duke nodded with a smile and exchanges a glance with the duchess. The duchess put her hand in Lilith's shoulder causing her to flinch. Then, a servant stopped the soothing music of the orchestra and gave the magic tool that amplifies sound to the king. "The Royal family came not only to celebrate the birthday of our dear Lady Lilith Rosewood but also with an announcement... The Duke and I has discussed the engagement of our dear Prince Alexis and Lady Lilith. The Engagement ceremony will be held shortly after this month ends and we'll hope for everyone's support. Expect the invitation to arrived soon in your homes. Again, Congratulations to Lady Lilith Rosewood for turning into a wonderful lady today." Lilith's eyes meets the king's and she can't help but feel a shiver down her spine. She feels that all of this looks familiar but she can't put her finger on it. But what she feels about it is pure fear, enough to turn her legs soft... If it weren't because of her mother, Lilith could've stumbled down with how pale and weak she is right now. She swallowed her saliva, looking into her deepest memory of what this feeling could mean. After that, The whole celebration is a blur. She felt that the prince approached her at some point but she didn't remember what she said or what happened. The next thing she new is that she's in the bath, preparing to sleep after a long day.

In Lilith's dream, she dreamed that she's Jessica again and that she's playing one of her favorite games in her computer. It's a dating simulator or Otome game, She felt a rush of excitement as she starts the game. In the starting menu an image greets her. It was an image of a beautiful prince hugging a commoner miss with rag clothing. The image remind her of Cinderella, then she focused on the prince's face... Elegant looking nose, a slightly pointed ears, and The blonde hair that has a hint of green that reaches to his shoulder... The sharp eyes that resembles his mother's, beautiful like emeralds... 'This face... It... It's....' Jessica enters the game and saw many images like a fastforwarded movie, she saw it all. Lilith Aria Rosewood, the evil villainess, was caught attempting to kill the poor commoner that the Royal family sponsored. The commoner was an invaluable asset to the empire after showing immense talent in magic that could rival the Prince. In the end, Lilith was exiled but then was killed by another admirer of the commoner.

Lilith woke up panting, soak in her cold sweat. she looked around and saw nothing amiss but the fear still lingers in every bits of flesh in her body. Her head screaming, ' I'm going to die!!!'
