Right now Nesuto and Neshia were standing in front of the training ground where the guards and knights train. "I wonder if he's in here?" Neshia asked through her mind "I guess so. Why else would the guards bring us here." Nesuto answered her through his mind.
They walked inside "Excuse me Prince Atticus, I have brought Prince Nesuto and Princess Neshia." A guard spoke up as he bowed, a boy with blonde spiky hair with brown eyes turned to see the twins and guard.
"Ah!" Atticus ran up to the twins pushing the guard away as he was smiling. "Hi Nesuto! Neshia! It's nice to meet you both! I'm Atticus one of your older brothers!" Atticus happily introduced himself.
The twins were taken back by the sudden and quick introduction from the third Prince. Neshia nervously smiled at Atticus "H-Hello Prince Atticus...nice to meet you." Neshia nervously greeted Atticus.
Nesuto didn't show any emotions "Hi I'm Nesuto, it's nice to meet you too." Nesuto greeted the Prince. Atticus smiles happily at them "Let's go! Today lets go to the Radiant Garden, I decided today I will leave early from training." Atticus happily tells them.
The twins noticed the look of reliefs on the guards and knights, they sweat drop at that. "I wonder if he's really tough on them?" Neshia asked her twin brother through her mind. Nesuto didn't make any movements "It should be expected that he'll be rough with them since who he is." Nesuto answered Neshia through his mind.
This person is the third prince Atticus, when I heard from Elizabeth about him being dangerous I decided to ask a guard which he was hesitate but I told him I wouldn't say anything. He told me that Atticus is the Captain of the Royal Guards and Knights, so I told Neshia about what I heard. Not only that but his nickname on the battlefield is The Blood Thirsty Demon which he is feared by the enemies of their Empire.
Neshia slowly nodded her head, when she heard about what the third prince is like from Nesuto she became frighten. "Hey!" Neshia flinched at Atticus shout, Nesuto held his twin's hand. "We're almost there." The third prince tells them with a smile.
The twins now just realized that they were following their half-brother. When they looked ahead their eyes widen at how beautiful the garden is, Atticus sat down on the grass as he patted the ground for them.
Nesuto sat on Atticus right side as Neshia was on the left "I didn't know that there was such a beautiful garden behind the palace grounds!" Neshia shouted with a huge smile "Its so big and pretty." Even Nesuto smiled.
Atticus smiled at them then looked back at the garden "I actually grew all these flowers myself, no one knows about this place." Atticus tells the twins as they were amazed and surprised that The Blood Thirsty Demon grew all these flowers.
The third prince chuckled "I know its surprising that someone like me would grow all these beautiful flowers." He told them as he got up and walked to one of the flowers and touched it gently. Nesuto and Neshia glanced at each other then looked at their half-brother.
"Um...sure it would be surprising to those around you that knew you longer but you love growing flowers. They would understand that you love doing this." Nesuto tells Atticus as he looked at him, Neshia looked at her half-brother shyly. "Even if they judge you...you have us...b-big brother Atticus." Neshia shyly says.
Atticus was surprised by their words but gently smiled at them. "Thanks Nesuto! Neshia! You two are really amazing and adorable!" He happily tells them as the twins blushed at the third Prince's words.
So the third Prince that is known as The Bloody Thirsty Demon was actually soft and into gardening. I-I feel like a jerk for believing Elizabeth words of him being dangerous and for being afraid of him. Neshia loves the flowers he grows and I kinda do too even though I'm not much into flowers.
But if Atticus likes it then I'm happy for him, he gets to do what he likes but has to hide it...he's afraid too. I didn't think that someone like him would be afraid of anything but I was wrong. He shouldn't hide what he likes from anyone including the emperor and our other half-brothers.
Nesuto was watching Neshia and Atticus jump around while looking at all the flowers. He smiled at his twin sister getting along with their third half-brother, it was like the fear she felt immediately washed away. Nesuto wasn't afraid of Atticus anymore "Nesuto!" He looked to see that Neshia called his name.
"Yeah?" Nesuto answered her call, Atticus waved to him "Come on and join us Nesuto!" Atticus excitedly called for Nesuto to join him and Neshia, he decided to jump to his feet and run towards them with a small smile.
Once he was close to them Atticus leaned his face close to Nesuto face. "Ah! I just noticed now but your eyes really are different colors!" Atticus shouted as Nesuto flinched waiting for an insult from the third Prince. "Their really beautiful! One looks like the red moon and the other looks like the moon when it's blue."
The look of surprise was shown on Nesuto expression, Atticus looked confused by that look. "Is it surprising for me to say that? I'm sure a bunch of people told you their beautiful?" Atticus asked Nesuto who was now being hugged by his twin sister.
Nesuto shook his head "Before coming here mom and all the maids called my eyes the demon eyes. That they were disgusting to look at and that I was probably a monster or possessed by a devil...but once I got here the first one that loved my eyes was the emperor and now you too...so I was taken back and happy..." Nesuto answered Atticus with a sad smile.
Suddenly the twins eyes widen as they were pulled into a tight embrace by Atticus. "I didn't know how much pain you two went through, if we knew sooner then we would have came for you two." Atticus tells them as the twins started crying. Atticus never let them go as he let cry all they wanted, he heard that the maids that reported to them about Herica death and that they were still alive lied to the emperor.
Those maids were still in the dungeon, his eyes darken 'I'll make sure to torment those maids for harming my little brother and little sister.' Atticus thought to himself as he planned to torture the maids that harmed both Nesuto and Neshia.
Atticus face quickly lit up with a bright smile, he pulled the twins away from him a little as they were taken back by it. "How about we eat some sweets! Like cake, cookies, cupcakes and other sweets!" Atticus suggested to the twins.
"W-Will there be pudding...?" Nesuto asked Atticus shyly as Atticus felt like an arrow went through his heart. "H-How some chocolate cake...?" Neshia also asked shyly as once again it felt like an arrow went through Atticus heart. "Of course! I'll get all the pudding and chocolate cake that you two want!" Atticus happily shouted with a big smile.
The twins smiled happily now, their eyes were still puffy with tear stains on their cheeks but they were now happy. Atticus lend them to a nice office room and he asked a maid to bring them tea and sweets that the twins wanted.
Atticus saw the twins looking at the room as he smiled at them. "This is my office that I do all my boring work at." The third Prince tells the twins, the two looked at him. "The room is so big and have so many books too!" Nesuto shouted as he was amazed by all the books.
Despite how I look, I have always loved reading all kinds of books but since being reborn it's hard to read lots of words in a book. It must be because I'm four years old now, maybe once the tutors teach us more I'll get to read a lot.
Yes the twins are four, they turned four years old the middle of the night that their mother Herica woke them up and died. It was a horrifying birthday for them especially for Nesuto since he saw their mother die with his own eyes.
"If you don't mind I can always go to your bedroom to read you two a story before bed?" Atticus asked them shyly as he scratched his cheek. He had a tint of blush on his cheeks, the twins smiled happily "Yeah! We would love that!" The twins excitedly tells their big brother.
He was happy that the twins allowed him to stop by their room to read to them. A knock interrupted them "Prince Atticus, I have brought the teas and sweets that you requested." The maid spoke politely from outside the room. "Come in." Atticus allowed them in as the maids set everything down nicely.
Nesuto drooled immediately at seeing the pudding, Neshia also drooled at seeing the chocolate cakes. Atticus smiled as he grabbed a pudding and a piece of chocolate cake. "Here you two go." Atticus offered them the desserts.
The twins took the plates as they took a bite and their eyes immediately shined. "YUMMY!" The twins happily shouted as they took more bites of their desserts. Atticus smiled at them "There's plenty of more for you two!" He happily tells the twins.
With that their day with the third Prince was fun for them and they enjoyed their time with Atticus.
