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.
Maybe, I Can Tell Her
Alwin made a temporary bath where the maids could bathe Dimo.
While the maids were busy with the child, Alwin explained to Arabella and the knights why Dimo released fire earlier.
Alwin said that it was because Dimo had a lot of mana and a strong affinity for fire magic. Since he doesn't know how to use it properly, it simply overflows when his emotions were heightened and get out of control when he was terrified and panicked.
It would be dangerous if left just as it was both for Dimo and the people around him.
"Can you teach him how to control it?" Arabella inquired and Alwin turned silent.
'Right. Teaching some random child was not his duty. And this is Dimo. He knows Dimo would be my magician someday. But I'm not planning to do that anymore.'
[I can teach something so basic. But why should I?] Alwin thought. [He does seem to be promising for a human.]
{How dare you not agree to something my wife asked.} Ferdinand's cold voice suddenly boomed in their head.
