"Come out!"
"Who?"
I asked my new companion.
[I don't know, Edward.]
"What? Don't you have something like X-rays to see through walls?"
[I was just born so it will take time to get updates.]
"Your useless master has surely nothing to do, so tell him to quicken his work."
[I can't reach him]
"You're useless, huh."
[At least I'm not fat.]
"B*tch!"
-Knock! -Knock!
"Hey!"
Again the irritating voice rang. I knew it belonged to whom, so my reluctance to open that damn door.
"Curse that family."
I stood up and I think I used fifty percent of my energy to just raise my body.
I opened the door and obviously, it was her.
Elona Falkrona, my sister.
She had black hair from my mother and grey eyes from my father.
"Scan her."
"What?"
Elona let out, confused, but I ignored her. I wasn't speaking to her in the first place.
[Yes.]
"Then?"
[She's in all probability in the third ascension like you but is probably stronger than you by several margins. She also reached her third wing of the Falkrona Bloodline.]
"Ain't you sure?"
[I can't completely find someone's strength, but I can give an approximation. She had a high probability of being in the Third Ascension like you.]
'Third wing…"
I gnashed my teeth.
I was a little lucky to have the famous Falkrona bloodline, but I didn't even awaken my first wing and here was my few months younger sister, who had already reached her third wind. Shouldn't the elder brother be stronger than the younger sister? Whatever, she wasn't my sister anyway and that shitty guy was probably laughing his ass off seeing me.
"What do you want?"
I asked coldly.
Elona was surprised at my unusually cold tone. Though Edward acted like an ass*ole with his sister, he never showed coldness. Rather, he couldn't as he was just a coward who hated Elona for her talent. At most, he'd push her with a smirk.
"Here!"
Elona recovered quickly and pulled a maid by her hand. It was a girl in her late teens. She was rather cute but right now her face was covered in tears. She was averting her face from me and seemed afraid of me.
"What?"
I asked, not knowing what she wanted. It was the first time I had seen that maid anyway.
Wait, don't tell me…
" 'What?' You are asking what?! You touched her with your filthy hands this morning when she was cleaning your dirty room!"
Elona shouted angrily, showing blatant disgust toward me.
Figures, it was really that but I wasn't the one who did it.
"Oh, okay."
I closed the door before the dumbfounded Elona.
"Hey!"
-Knock! -Knock!
I ignored her and headed to my bed.
"This is why, Aurora broke the engagement!"
"..."
Like hell, I cared about that engagement.
"You're just a beast, attacking innocent girls for your own pleasure!"
It wasn't me.
I shrugged.
"I hate you! Father hates you! Simon hates you, Mother would have hated you as well!"
"..."
I spun on my heels and opened the door. My amber eyes were colder than ever.
I thought about my parents from my previous life and my mother from this life. It was strange but I was feeling angry when she said that my mother, Oryanna Falkrona, hated me.
Elona glared at me. Tears of anger flowed down her face.
"Why are you like this…? My broth-"
"I'm not your brother."
I cut her off. She was really getting on my nerves.
Since Ephera's death, I have been really getting insulted by everyone and I did fucking nothing.
"And you're not my sister."
"!"
Elona froze at my words.
"So get lost."
I shooed her away with my hand.
"..."
The maid who had seen such a scene ran away. If before she was scared because of my status, then now it was because of my current humor.
"Y-Yeah, that's it."
Elona wiped her tears and glared again at me.
"I'd rather die than have a brother like you!"
"You can die for all I care."
I replied without hesitation. I was sure I was wearing a twisted smile when I said that.
"!"
Elona opened her eyes wide. She was staring at me as if looking at a stranger. Edward had never said anything like that to her, until now. But I wasn't Edward.
I snorted and closed the door.
"Finally, peace."
I sighed in satisfaction.
[As expected of a Major Antagonist.]
"Shut up."
[You should have looked at your face when you said that. It was no different than from Edward Falkrona in the Second Game when he erased an entire town with its inhabitants.]
"What, you played the games?"
I asked with a laugh.
[...]
Are you angry?! I should be the one!
"What?! I should have let that random girl, insult me?! She knows nothing about my family! They all loved me! My mother, my father, my sister! If not for that freaking drunken cunt, I'd have been happy!"
[...]
Yeah, don't speak!
I can't reply anyway since I am stuck in this body and already exhausted!
***
Inside a large square room, several people were found. The most catching ones were around a table, eating their dinner. From the lavish interior, there was no doubt that they were wealthy people and indeed, they were, as they were none other than the Celesta Royal Family.
Few maids were there to serve their master with perfection. Guards were also present, though a little far from them.
Only the sound of cutlery resounded for a few minutes in the royal dining hall.
"You can leave."
The only man on the table spoke. The man had blond hair and sapphire blue eyes. He was handsome and no one would think he was a father seeing his face. On his head was a shining golden crown with several ornaments on it. With his royal tunic, nobody in the Celesta Kingdom could mistake him. He was the King of the Celesta Kingdom.
The maids and guards bowed and left the hall, leaving only the people around the table.
The table was surrounded by six seats. Two seats were empty. Two seats were occupied by the royal couple and the last one by a golden-haired beauty. Aurora Celesta.
"Aurora, I heard what you have done."
At her father's words, Aurora's hand holding the fork stopped moving. She put down the fork and looked at her father with an apologetic expression.
"Father I-"
"I know, dear. I gave you the choice, but I didn't expect you to take your decision so early."
"I…I'm sorry."
Aurora lowered her head in shame. The union between her and Edward Falkrona was obviously a political one. The purpose was to strengthen the bond between their two families. Moreover, Charles Celesta, the King, wanted the Falkrona's army might. Indeed, among all Dukedom, the Falkrona Dukedom had the most powerful army.
"What happened, Aurora?"
The golden-haired Queen, Edith, wiped her mouth with a napkin and asked her daughter. She didn't seem to mind her daughter's decision, but was still curious.
"That's…"
Aurora had a hard time saying it as her expression distorted to hate.
"A week ago, I proposed to him to deepen our bond. We went out but Edward didn't even respect me. He was flirting and harassing women on every store and place we were…"
Aurora felt ashamed to be near Edwward at that time. She was officially his fiancee. He was the fiance of the Royal Princess but Edward was acting like the worst human that could be found in Celesta. She could still remember the looks of pity given to her by the spectators. She had a kind heart but she nonetheless had the pride of a royal Princess.
"Sigh…"
Charles sighed before smiling gently at his daughter.
"I already talked to Thomen, don't worry anymore."
"Thank you, father."
Aurora felt relieved upon hearing that Edward's father, Thomen, didn't refuse. But one thing she was sure. He must be very angry at his son for that…
