She sighed as she reminisced about the past. Then she slowly walked away from the window and go towards the mirror.
She stopped in front of the mirror and look intensely at her reflection in the mirror. There was a small sign of a 9 star shaped birthmark on her right wrist.
[ After constant reincarnation, I realize one thing, my life always starts from birth but I need a significant stimulation to recall my past memories. This birthmark is the same in each of my reincarnation.
At first I thought it represented my reincarnation time but I have reincarnated more than 9 times so it has nothing to do with my reincarnation time. I have not yet found the cause of this sign or the solution to the mystery.
So, my new life always begins without the memory of the past.
I always hope that my memories will not come back, so that I can live a normal life but it never happens the way I want. Either way my memory comes flooding back.
now I also got used to I.S like a soul mate.]
Evelyn: Hah...
Evelyn sighed again as if letting go of all her worries.
[ This is my 88th or maybe 98th life, I don't remember correctly. Now I have reincarnate as the first princess of Cristiane, Evelyn de P. La Cristiane. I am first in line to the throne.
But for some unknown reason I have been abandoned by my own mother since birth in this old and lonely black rose palace.
Why she never once cared, loved or visited me is unknown to all. I am not allowed to go out of this palace without permission because my mother does not really want to see my face.
Why.. The answer to this question, no one knows. But maybe today i'll know... ]
Evelyn gaze away from the mirror and took a deep breath.
Evelyn: I.S. My Information.
Ding....
A blue panel appeared before Evelyn. She place her eyes on it.

Evelyn's eyes stopped at the side story bar. She was not understanding what exactly does it means.
Evelyn: ..Unusual eye and hair colour...
Evelyn gaze at the mirror once again.
She tilted her head in confusion.
[ Sparkling White Hair Shining like the moonlight and Blue eyes deep like the Ocean. What's so unusual about it. The empress has red hair and blue eyes and my father had white hair and golden eyes so, isn't it common for me to have their combined traits, white hair and blue eyes. There's something wrong.. ]
Evelyn: I.S. Scan Body.
Ding...
[ Body Scanning in progress.... ]
Ding...
[ Body Scanning Completed. ]
An X-ray-like panel appeared in front of her. Evelyn looks at the panel with a curious eye. The panel showed a red mark around her neck and some words were written below - [ Magical Item ]
Evelyn looked down at her neck, she saw a small sparkling ruby necklace with some designs in it around her neck.
[ This was a necklace given to me by the empress after my birth and she ordered that it should never be taken off.
So, I never took it off even once before because the me before considered it as the first gift I got from my mother.
Who knew it was actually a magical item.. ]
Evelyn takes off her necklace. A beam of light shines through her hair, some strands of her white hair turn black and her eye colour also began to change, Ocean like eye becomes blood red.
She touched her reflection in the mirror in a daze and murmurs to herself,
Evelyn: So, that's why....
[ It is said that 1030 years ago, demons attacked the empire under the orders of the demon king. People were slaughtered like animals.
There was slaughter and destruction everywhere. Everywhere was full of disaster and wars. There was no peace anywhere, only tears and sorrow. After a whole 110 years of slaughter and wars.
Finally, 920 years ago, Elencia De S. La Cristiane fought against the demon king.
Aided by the Supreme Magic Swordmaster, Seraphion Aster, Elencia fought against the Demon King, defeating him and restoring peace to the empire.
Then, Elencia De S. La Cristiane founded the Cristiane Empire. But after the war, Seraphione Aster disappeared from everyone's sight.
It is said that the demon king had black hair and red eyes. Henceforth, black hair and red eyes became taboo in the Cristiane Empire. Black hair and red eyes are seen as inauspicious. ]
Evelyn: No wonder, the wet maid disappeared after I was born, she must have been killed or chased out to keep silent as it would bring shame to the royal family if any word got out about it. No wonder the mother who doesn't even like me gave me a necklace that turned out to be a magical item with concealing magic which conceals my original appearance. The empress even ordered me not to took it off. Ha...
Evelyn laughs derisively. She looks at the necklace in her hand which she took off with a eye full of sarcasm. Suddenly some knocks were heard from the door.
Cassy: Your highness, i bring some food for you to eat. may i come in ?
Evelyn hurriedly wears the necklace again. Her hair and eye color return to how they were before. She go towards the couch.
Evelyn: Come in.
Evelyn sat down on the couch, her head was still aching a little. Cassy entered the room with a light tray of healthy food and a bowl of soup. She placed the tray on the table in front of Evelyn. After serving the dishes on the table, Cassy stepped aside.
Cassy: Please eat some food first, your highness. You haven't eaten anything in a whole week, You must be hungry.
Evelyn: Thanks, Sassy.
Cassy: It's Cassy, your highness. And you don't need to say thanks, it's my duty.
Evelyn: Yeah, Cally.
Cassy doesn't say anything anymore. Evelyn ask Cassy while getting ready to eat.
Evelyn: Where is Gerod?
Cassy: Gerod??.. Oh.. He is guarding the room. You should eat your meal first.
Evelyn: Okay.
Evelyn looks at the food. Looking at the food, she felt a sort of uneasiness as if her sixth sense was warning her of something.
Evelyn: I.S. Scan Foods. ( whisper )
Ding...
[ Food Scanning in progress... ]
Ding...
[ Food Scanning Completed. ]
A panel appeared before Evelyn. Which showed that other than the soup everything else was poisoned with a low toxic poison.
It's a low toxic poison so, it wouldn't kill someone but consuming daily will result in a big health issue while reaching adulthood.
Evelyn: Hah... [ it must be the work of those disgusting nobles. Even though i don't like to eat soup but Cassy always make it herself and brought it for me when i get sick since it's good for my body. If it was the me before, i wouldn't even touch the soup saying it tastes bad. But now..everything is different. ]
Evelyn only ate the soup without touching the other food. Cassy kind of happy because the princess wasn't throwing tantrum over food anymore. Evelyn finished eating.
Evelyn: I'm full. My head is feeling heavy So, i'll take some rest. Tell Gered to not let anyone in, Jessy.
Cassy: It's Cassy, Your highness.
Evelyn: Yeah, Catty.
Cassy: ... Just call me whatever you want, your highness.
Cassy took the tray and left the room and closes the door silently.
Evelyn: Whatever i want... You are just like her.
Evelyn gave a wry smile at the thought of someone.
Evelyn: Come to think of it it's been 80 years since i last meet them. How are they doing now.
Evelyn get up from the sofa and go towards the bed.
Evelyn: What am i even worrying about. It's not like anyone will be able to do anything to them.
Evelyn lay down in bed and closed her eyes.
Evelyn: I should take some rest instead.
5 days later ---
In those 5 days Evelyn either eat or sleep. Evelyn finally took a book to read. She was reading a book named " The History of Aristynne ".
After requesting Cassy, she brought it from the library for her.
[ There isn't many people who doesn't know about Aristynne. It was a land free from any empire and kingdom, nobody had any control over it and it was not part of any Kingdom and empire. Many would call it the kingdom of Aristynne.
It was regard as the most dangerous place that nobody dared to invade or go to war with.
It was full of different magical creatures, species and peoples such as Elf, dwarfs, hybrids, Strong and Powerful Knights with powers that can overthrow a kingdom, High class Mage, Swordsman, Summoner, Spiritualist and it even has a very powerful and well-known mage tower of its own.
Aristynne's strength was unmeasurable. Everyone knew that if they go to war with Aristynne, they'll suffer a very big loss since it had very powerful, strong knights and magic weapons created by the dwarfs. It was almost impossible to win against Aristynne... ]
Evelyn was reading the book seriously when the door knocked. Evelyn felt a bit annoyed. she closed the book and put it aside.
Evelyn: Come in.
Cassy enters the room. Evelyn looked at her with a questioning eye as if asking why she had come.
Cassy: Your highness, The young master of Rochester duchy has came to visit you.
Evelyn: Rockstar..
Cassy: It's Rochester, Your highness. Edrick Rochester, Your Fiance.
Evelyn: Well.. Roche.. Or whatever let him in.
Cassy: Yes, Your highness.
[ I think my fiance was very talented in swordsmanship at a very young age. He is called a genius. ]
Cassy sighed and left the room. ( In those 5 days she understood the princess has changed. she doesn't get angry as before, doesn't throw a tantrum over food anymore, she even can't remember any names properly. Cassy thinks that the princess hurting her head and facing near death has cause her to become like this.)
on the other hand, Evelyn absentmindedly muttered to herself,
Evelyn: My Fiance...
