"Why did you kill yourself?", Flavia asked.
Juli was surprised and rather sad to hear this question. She stood up and said coldly, "It doesn't matter right now. What's dead is dead."
She started to smile and said, "Now tell me Flaiva, how can I make you happy and sleep for eternity."
Flavia said, "I'm happy. I always have been happy. I don't know why Livia thought I was unhappy?"
Juli said, "Maybe she knew something that can make you unhappy in the near future. Which can make you heartbroken enough to kill yourself."
Flavia was taken aback. Quintus said, "How can you say that?"
Juli was smiling and moved toward him. "Don't you know about Domitia?", She whispered.
He said, "How?". Before he could say any other word. Juli put her finger on his lips and said, "Shhhh...let's keep it a secret between us." It was Juli's little revenge for badmouthing her.
"By the way, Livia had told me about this.", she said in a loud voice while she moved toward her bed.
"What had Livia told you? What are you two talking about?", Flavia asked. She was displeased and angry.
"If you guys want to know anything more then let's go to Curia Sulla's main garden at noon with me and discover the whole story by yourself.", Juli said while moving toward the bed.
"Hey, what is the meaning of this? Tell us.", Flavia kept asking. But Juli was already on her bed, and she had covered her eyes and ears. Juli said, "Keep asking. I'm not listening to you guys. I'm blind and deaf. Good night, Sweeties."
Quintus and Flavia were dumbfounded. "Maybe we should take her to prison and torture her.", Quintus suggested but he looked at Juli who was inside Livia's body. He felt guilty for saying such a horrible thing.
Flavia also sat on the same bed with Juli and said, "You are suspicious. We can't believe you. That's why I'm going to sleep here with you."
Juli had covered herself with the blanket. She was peeking at them through a hole in the blanket. But Flavia grabbed the blanket from her. Juli tried her best to loosen Flavia's grip, but she was stronger as compared to Livia's body.
Now both of them were sharing the same blanket. Quintus was looking at their childish play and then left them alone in the room before going he had closed the window and the door.
"What a gentleman!", Juli complimented. She wanted to know what would have happened to him after Flavia's death and what did Livia think about him. With all these questions in her mind, she fell asleep as Flavia was already sleeping soundly.
"I'm a very bad actress. I got caught on my first official day in this world. What will happen next? Whatever will happen I'm not going to live here again and again. I don't want to lose my mind and get stuck myself in this loop.", Juli murmured while she fell asleep.
"Huh... Let me sleep for five more minutes. Mom tells Anna to shut her mouth. I want to sleep.", Juli said irritatingly out of her old habit after hearing someone whispering.
But she realized that she was not in her old room. She woke up and sat on the bed. She saw Flavia and Quintus standing in front of her. They were discussing something.
"Good morning.", Flavia greeted her in a less cold tone. Now her tone was soft as compared to last night. Maybe she had started to like Juli.
"Juli, that is your name right.", Flavia asked.
"Yes, but why are you standing here? Is it not a little bit early to wake up?", Juli complained while looking through the window. It was still dark outside.
"Sigh. You are nothing like Livia.", Flavia complained.
"Because I'm not Livia. I'm clear and I'm not her substitute either. I'm Juli.", Juli said while yawning. She was pissed off.
"No, I mean Livia had the habit of waking up early and doing practice in the training grounds. But you don't seem to like doing it.", Flavia said in a genuine tone.
Juli thought that she didn't like to exercise and, she didn't have enough time to do it either. In reality, she was too lazy to do this.
"Practice for what? and training grounds? Was Livia a soldier?", Juli asked.
"Livia was not a regular soldier or mercenary either. In our world, most of the people learn basic combat techniques and train themselves for the worst.", Flavia explained.
"So, that is the reason why this body is so strong.", Juli said happily.
"I'm in. I also want to practice. Teach me some basic techniques as well.", Juli said excitedly. She thought it would be a good opportunity to get close to Flavia. But honestly, it was just a distraction for Juli to escape for a few hours from her current situation.
Flavia agreed and told her to change her dress. Juli did whatever she was asked.
Juli set foot on the training ground. It was not a sight she had not dared to imagine in her worst scenario. It was the image of the bloody horror game. The ground was dirty with blood spots everywhere.
Juli wanted to turn back but Flavia grabbed her arm and said, "Let's go."
Juli thought it was the problem she had created for herself. "God wherever you're please help me.", she started to pray while Flavia was dragging her.
"Oh, my are you praying? To which God are you praying?", Flavia asked with a grim reaper smile on her face.
Juli thought that she was an atheist, and it was the first time she had prayed after coming into this world. Because she had never seen this much blood in her entire life.
"Don't you clean the training ground?", Juli asked while shivering.
"Are you afraid? By the way, we do clean it every day. But our guards and soldiers train themselves daily and hurt themselves when they play some little games. We will also play that game. You and I.", Flavia said with the same dreadful smile.
"Play games? Don't you think that we are too old to play games?", Juli said. She was trying to free herself from Flavia's grip. But Flavia was stronger.
"Don't worry. I know it is your first time. I'll give you a demo.", Flavia said while calling Quintus. She pushed Juli on the floor and instructed her, "Sit here and watch."
Juli was rooting for Quintus. Because he was handsome. But soon Flavia threw him to the ground and the blood was running from his nose. Juli got more scared. Because Flavia looked normal and didn't have any large muscles, but her strength was Marvelous.
"Now it's your turn Juli.", Flavia said while smiling.
Gulp. Juli couldn't observe a single thing because everything happened so fast. "Will I be alive after this game?", She thought.
