Chapter 208: Fallen From Nobility....
I looked at the window as the light was devouring and I could hear the screams from the outside from the monsters who were outside waiting for people to get out from somewhere to eat them, but didn’t expect that the darkness they thought would last for long, would vanished in an instant.
"I’ve never appreciated the sun as much as I appreciate it now."
We all looked at the emperor who was now in the balcony as he was feeling the sun light as it kissed it skins.
"Me too, I used to hate sun light in the morning every time it touches my eyes and woke me up from sleep."
Hernand said as he even opened his arms as if he was welcoming the sun.
"I never knew that you too could be cheesy."
My father said as he looked at his two friends who just laugh at what he said.
"But it’s good to know that people in our empire could have a breathe, after all they had been hiding all the time in places that has some barriers."
The emperor said as he looked overwhelmed at the sight of sun shining so bright.
"What happened to Madam Abellrde and Iivan? And Evander?"
I asked as I looked at them, even though they were bad at first, but still Evander was my friend, the only friend who stood up with Acantha when she has nothing.
It was just he becomes greedy because of his love for me, which is not an excuse, after all many people died because of his sins.
"They were all fine, but Madam Dorkinya has some damages on her body as she panicked when she saw her daughter’s body who looks like corpse when they went to where the monsters were hiding."
Hernand was the one who answered and base from his answer, he must be trying to cure her, but due to the darkness power getting strong, and I know that before Iivan couldn’t use his own power to attack the monster as his power was bound to Abanoon and those who were bound can never betray their master with the magic they owed to them.
"Also Evander, and Iivan too. They don’t looked good at all. They must have been worn out from fighting the monsters by hand with us, but unlike us we have magic that can protect us from the monsters, while they just relay on the mana stones that I provided the knights."
Father said as he looked worried when he mentioned Evander.
I understand him, After all Evander and I grew up together and he was the one who raised him when his father couldn’t.
I was even jealous at some point that he was taking care of him, instead of me when I was young.
But that was all in the past, I must forgive people, but it doesn’t meant that I will forget all of it.
After all, my past was also part of my future.
A future that I needed to protect not just for me or for the people I loved, but also for the people who were relying on me.
------------------
Jessie yelled as she was hiding in a house, a house where her monsters had taken her after she flew unconsciously with them when that bitch Lucille got her power.
How can that bitch gain her power?
And why didn’t she just die?
She and that pink haired bitch were the same.
They were both a pests in her life.
"Who are you?"
Jessie looked at woman who was wearing all black like she was from a funeral.
"Mind your tone you bitch!"
She yelled as she glared at the woman who also glared at her.
"What are you even doing here in my house?!"
The woman yelled at her as she was still glaring at her.
"Your house?"
She said as she smirked at her.
"Are you sure?"
She asked again and Jessie saw the woman gritted her teeth in anger.
"Why is that stupid rotten corpse there."
She asked as she pointed at somehwere and the woman looked at her with confusion in her eyes.
"What corpse?"
The woman asked as she looks curious now, and she even gasped and vomit when she saw it.
"What is that? Why is that here?!"
She asked as she was still vomitting at what she was seeing.
"You claimed this is your house and yet you didn’t notice it? Who are playing fool with?"
Jessie said as she grabbed the woman from her hair and lift her head.
"This is my turf! You lowly fool!"
The woman said which made Jessie smirked at her.
"Turf? My monsters are here, how can you say that this was your turf?"
She asked as coldly as the woman looks confused at what she said again this time.
"Your monster? Hahahaha, Are you playing dumb with me?"
The woman said and Abanoon didn’t expect what she did and she was thrown into the other side of the wall, but unlike to what happened to her when that stupid Luccille gained power this was nothing to her.
"See? mess with me and you will die------"
The woman didn’t finished her sentence when she was thrown to the other side, it was too strong that she vomitted blood.
"Now, who’s messing who?"
Jessie yelled at her and went back to the chair that was for her.
"W-what are you?"
The woman said as she was crawling, while there was some blood on her mouth.
"I am your master, you stupid woman!"
Jessie yelled at her and the woman eyes panicked as if she can’t believe what she just heard.
"No, no, you’re lying, why am I your servant when I was born noble? I was raised to be the crown princess of this empire."
She said which made Jessie straightened her back at what she heard.
"Crown princess? How dare you covet my position? I am the crown princess who are you to covet it?"
She said as she yelled at the woman as she kicked her on her face.
"Y-youuu areee the crown p-princess?? Hahaha you should wake up, that lowly Acantha took it already, and my love Hellion, we were childhood sweatheart, but he chose her!"
The woman yelled which made Jessie confused at what she said.
"It was supposed to me Cataina Rigas who were destined to be his wife and bethrothed."
She said and Jessie frowned.
As far as she remembered there was no Cataina Rigas in the story, so who was this woman?
And how dare she covet her position, and most importantly how dare she desired to be Hellion’s wife?
But she saw the anger in her eyes.
"I am a noble lady and someone like me should be worshipped not to be some toy of pathetic filthy person like you."
She said as she still has that arrogant attitude of hers, that she was even helding her hed high like a noble woman as she was.
Jessie glared at what she said.
She dislikes the word filthy especially when it was talking about her.
She had been called filthy by people she grew up, and those people who were also in elite society who view her and her mother as a parasite that landed on their society.
She sighed as she was trying to restrain herself from hitting her, after all, they have the same agenda.
To take Acantha down.
After she was done with Acantha she will kill this woman so, Hellion will be hers.
Only hers.
"You hate Acantha right?"
She asked and the woman looked at her and Jessie could feel the burning anger in her eyes as she mentioned that stupid woman’s name to this other stupid woman.
"Are you trying to get me on your side? Hahaha pathetic."
The woman named Cataina said as she got up from the ground and wife the blood on her mouth and looked at her like she was more disgusting than a shit.
"You think, I will lower myself and be your ally? Well, you need to think twice! Even if I hate the woman I wouldn’t stoop myself to your level and be your ally, what do you take me for? A fool?"
She said which made Jessie loose her temper.
This woman dared to insult her over and over again and she was showing her some leniency, but it seems like she really want to get on her nerves.
The woman’s smell was familiar to her as she has the same smell as her.
That stupid Abanoon, and here she thought that she was gone forever, but it seems like that stupid woman has a backup plan.
This woman smells like the old Noraya.
She was a vessel for Abanoon.
How did she know that?
The power, the smell, and besides, there were some small part of Abanoon that was transferred to her.
And Jessie now understand why she has a power, and the monster made her house as their own.
It was because she has a small part of Abanoon inside her, which made her command and made monster by her own.
She looked outside as it was still dark, and this woman was the caused of it.
She looked at her again, and uses her power to make her as her slave. A slave that was bound to her and wouldn’t betrayed her in anyway.
Jessie closes her eyes and when she opened it, she let the woman go, and she looks disgusted at what she did which made her smirked at her.
"Now, you’ll be my slave,,,"
She said and the woman look even more disgusted at what she said.
"How does it feel to fall from Nobility and become my slave?"
She asked and was about to laugh when she heard-
