I'm the Emperor's Daughter

Chapter 14

"Look at you, you're so cute. My niece is so cute!" Sabi ng isang lalaking white haired at may pulang mata na katulad kay Charmion.

Don't tell me.. He's the father of Charmion?

Nahalata niya sigurong di ko siya kilala kaya naman napangiti siya at tumingin sa akin.

"I'm sorry, let me introduce myself. I'm Leonardo du Mortier, the King of the Magic Tower. I am also your uncle, I am the brother of your mother" nakangiting saad niya

"Really? Is mom here too? Can I see her?" Sabi ko habang nakapuppy eyes

Bigla namang nalungkot ang lahat dahil sa sinabi ko. What's wrong? Bakit kinakabahan ako? Bakit bigla akong di mapakali? Ang ibig sabihin lang ng reaksyon nila...

"Your mother is already dead, princess" malungkot na wika ni Tito

That's.... I'm right, I shouldn't expect this to come. Ang akala ko magkakaroon ako ng nanay na magaalaga sa akin. Yung tunay na nagmamahal sa akin but it turns out na kahit kailan hindi ko yun mararanasan.

"Princess, do you know what, Einz isn't your real father. He's the one who killed your mother. I am so sorry for my sister who lost, I can't believe that she was killed by a monster like him!" maingiyak-ngiyak na kwento ni Tito

That scumbag... Why did he, why does he doing these things to me? Whyy!!! I hate you, I wish I'll never met you. So this is why, you don't care whether I die or not in the story it seems I'm not your real child that's why you hate me.

"Don't be sad, child. We are here to welcome you. We all love you. From these days, call me father and my wife mother. Because you're my sister's daughter, you're a family too. Charmion will be happy to hear this too, right?" Sabi ni Tito

Is that true? Can I.... Can I live in joy now?

"We agree"

"The new princess of Magic Tower, Princess Rheabythia Azalea du Mortier!"

"Hooray!" they all shouted

"To complete the ceremony, Ruzel, please guide the princess to the tomb of god and have her blessed." Sabi ni Tito

"Let's go princess" anyaya ni Ruzel

Tumayo na ako at ngumiti. Kinawayan ko silang lahat habang papaalis na ako sa kwarto.

I never felt this kind of relief. I am so glad that I already met my own family. The family that will truly love me.

Leonardo du Mortier (King of Magic Tower) POV

"His Majesty, she's already in the tomb of god." Marquis Forester reported

I waved my hand indicating that he can go now. Then he exited the room and the knights closed the door.

"What are you planning, Your Majesty?"

Lumingon ako at nakita si Duke Zeno na nakade-quatrong nakaupo at nakatingin sa akin.

"Don't worry, I will be kind this time" sagot ko

"Do you really wish to have a war in Pierro?" tanong niya

"They are the one who were declaring a war with us ever since!" inis kong sagot

That Einz! He killed my mother and sister and even killed my daughter! Poor Haribelle, my sweet daughter died on a bed of white flowers cut into halves. Thinking of that makes me want to kill him even more. Pierro and Magic Tower were united long ago but when Einz become the ruler of it, Magic Tower became so miserable. Father died in the battle, mother and sister died in his palace. He even raped my sister! And that child born! That bastard dared to reign his tyranny over the continent? Well, not in my watch!

"I know my sister will forgive me if I exchange Rheabythia's soul to the Grimm reaper to have my daughter back besides, I heard that this girl is unfavored one." I stated

"What? Don't tell me Your Highness you're gonna perform that forbidden ritual?" gulat na tanong ni Duke Zeno

Ngumisi ako sa kaniya at hinawakan ang kopang may lamang alak

"You're guessing's not bad" sagot ko at uminom ng alak

"You mean it, Your Majesty? People know that your plan is to take care of the princess and took her away from Einz so our Magic knights agreed to kill people and kidnap the princess"

"A life for a life, in the contrary, he has a debt for killing my mother and sister. And his daughter is enough to pay the price."

"What if people knew about this, sire?" Zeno asked

"Then kill them all, don't let them ruin my plan!" sigaw ko

Nagulat si Zeno sa reaksyon ko. Tumawa ako at inalog ang kopa.

"The wine is very good, you want some?" pagaalok ko

"Thank you, Your Majesty but I'm not in the mood to drink wine" sagot niya

"You're boring Duke, anyways, we have to go to the tomb of god so get ready"

"Yes, Your Majesty"

Wait until I get revenge on you Einz, I will take away your daughter first and then your second daughter and I'll take away all that is yours. You can't enter Magic Tower if you are not a citizen of it. God's have been guarded this Tower eversince you take control over the half of the continent. And I'm excited to watch you helplessly can't do anything hahaha.
