CHAPTER 3

"How do you have it !?", Sara gasped looking at me ," Do you know what it is ?".

"Simple . The name is Harold's Pocket Watch. And I have it because...Father Emperor gifted this on my 8th birthday ", I said , unsure to tell her about 'that' part ...

"Do you know it's history and who is the rightful heir to it ?", She questioned, scanning me up and down.

"The history is-"

"Your Imperial Highness, His Imperial Highness is requesting your presence ", Ivan , The butler said.

I nodded my head and bid Sara a farewell.

But before that ....

"(*Whispers*) Sara....I think an assassination is going to happen on you . Beware ", And handing her the watch , I went on my way to see Father.

Sara's P.O.V

When Kriss told me that he knew about the Watch , I nearly suspected him to be some future traveler but....

Well he is the Crown Prince.....So he might have heard the old history

Plus ..... Why did the Emperor give him something like this ? Shouldn't it be given to the Harold owner ? I wonder how the hell did he find it ....

After shaking those thoughts away , I took out my Fan .... Which can cover my face but .... It has more than it meets the eye.

The Fan is known as The Blood Fan .... Made exclusively for the user , It is actually one of my heirlooms .... Basically, This is a Wand , which can morph into any shape according to the user's temperament.

But only the Tatianan blood can afford it .

And this is my secret weapon ~!

"Lady Sara ", Auran held out his hand.

"Yes ..... but before that ", I turned towards the roof ," Oi ! Don't ya think ya should show yourself?" I smirked .

In an instant, two shadows landed in front of me , daggers in their hands...Charging upon me

Heh....They think they can kill me ?

I quickly close my fan , stopping the dagger coming towards me with it.

And then open my fan again .

I pick up 2 needles that were tucked it in. And ran towards them .

They dodged it but...

Silly people

I threw it from the back , perfectly hitting upon their neck , a fatal place.

2 more stabs to go ! Which equals to .... 4 more

"Heuk !", They shrieked out.

But still they had the energy to fight me .

I signalled Auran .

And Auran used his special skill.

"Eclipse !", He mumbled and shadows rose up from the ground , binding the two in their place.

"Good Job !", I did the two finger sign

"No problem !", He replied back.

And let's say .... I stabbed them 4 times , two each.

And they were....

Dead Meat

Suddenly someone tapped my shoulder.

I turned to find out ....

Standing in front of me was a man in his early 30s , with Midnight Blue hair and Forest green eyes .... Standing beside him was .... Kriss.

Ah sh*t !

"G-greetings to the Great Sun of this Empire ", I bowed down.

"Greetings to the Empire's Guardian ", He looked down at me , his eyes piercing my soul.

I looked towards Kriss , only to find him divert his eyes ...

Bish help me !

"I never knew ... That the Guardian can fight well . I thought that Our Guardian only knew about using magic while fighting ", His cold , melody like voice ringing through my ears.

Gulping a little , I forced out a smile , although it was twitching.

"Thank you for the praise . Those two were bugging me so I-"

"You finished them off . Good job !", He smiled hugging me.

"E-eh !?", My eyes were wide open.

"Heh .... Did Our Guardian think that I would reprimand you ?" He questioned me.

"WERE YOU ACTING !?", I freaked out when I discovered the truth.

"Pfft !!!", I could see Kriss trying to hold his laughter, making his cheeks red.

The Emperor facepalmed .

"Actually.....I was trying my acting for the Springtime ball ", He sighed , realizing how scared typed I was.

"But it actually did work ", We all said together.

And then burst out laughing.

"Then I need to go , Emperor Kaleb ..... His Highness ", I bowed and entered the carriage , waving at them through the window.

The day was great as usual !

After yawning a bit....I look at the Watch.

The watch was beautiful from every angle.

The case was gold . Had Ruian (Roman in that world)  like  numbers .... And it was still working.

Tick Tock Tick Tock Tick Tock

DONG !!!

And when it hit 12 at midnight it started to glow , showing weird (but not to me) numbers.

Today was a Blood Moon Day.

I started to chant the ancient spell after giving it my blood.

" ৴৲৶৸৹৹৹৻৲৴ ", It started to give a bright red shade and glistened under the moon.

"Hail to the Melody Of Time . Give me the power to explore its greatness and help me to sustain my mortal body from your Great Force ! Awaken Time ! Lead me to Tatiana's Time !", After I ended the speech spell , I got a positive reaction.

The Watch started to show music like signs , spiraling around me and cupping me inside a bubble.

..... But .... I could see my body sleeping on the bed.

So this is ....

My inner body ....

I was transparent but still visible.

But was I ?
