Reborn as a Mind-Reading Empress
Falling for his warm touch despite his usual coldness, she loved him only to be disappointed and betrayed in the end. When love turns to darkness, it festers to be poisonous and consumes the soul. The naïve Arabella evolved. *** “Thank you for becoming my wife,” was her cold husband’s last words before he died, coupled with a smile that had never before graced his lips. Not on their wedding day. And not even at the birth of their only child. Emperor Ferdinand, someone Arabella loved so much, killed their son. She became a villainess and vowed revenge for her beloved child. For a decade, she used everything she could to make Ferdinand pay. Until finally… he fell to ruin! With her revenge complete, Arabella's life soon ended with her dead husband in her arms. But fate wasn’t done playing with her. All of a sudden, she was back two decades ago right after their wedding. Was it a curse or a blessing? It didn’t matter. Because there is only one thing she needed to do. “I will ruin you in this lifetime too!” This was her hateful promise to herself upon realizing she was reborn. But in her second life, Arabella was unexpectedly bestowed a gift to uncover the truth. Who was wrong and who was right? Only time will tell.
The Mission
Arabella talked with her mother and brother for a while and said their goodbyes. She assured them she would be mighty fine in Valeria, so they had nothing to worry about.
Alwin and Rendell also assured them that they would do their best to protect her no matter what so she would not be harmed in any way.
When Arabella's family left, Alwin took the chance to speak with her in private.
"Zion will take care of this monster attack since as I have told you before, I would head to Evania's home," he reminded.
Alwin informed her that they had called Zion this morning since they assumed Lindon's comrades might begin their moves once the Assembly was over. But the attack came earlier.
Thankfully, Zion was already there and he was the one tasked to tail Lindon's comrades this time since Alwin had already told Ferdinand about his plan to go to Evania's home once the Assembly was over.
