The Guest(2)

"Oh my, a Civil War might break..." someone called out. I bit my lips to stop smirking. It seems perfect... someone did realize.

Someone squeezed my wrist. I turned around to see my father looking at me with a weird stare. He seemed confused about what I was up to. He shook his head at me and said:

"What are you trying to do?"

I smiled warmly and said:

"Helping other people realize..."

My father turned his head at me quizzically. He seemed rather confused. I patted his back and kept going towards the conversation. I put my head down... did make myself obvious of my rebellious actions?

Hopefully, I can come up with the idea of 'she is just a child who doesn't understand' face to rescue myself if there is some trouble. Hopefully, my revenge comes without charge. If I did manage to put this meeting into Civil War... there might be actions of rebellion.

Emperiza might fall... and I might seize the chance to take revenge easily.

But I can't do it so carelessly. If this kingdom were to fall... other kingdoms might start war with us. Even if I did get revenge... I would have to be in charge of the aftermath consequences. I think I overdid my steps... making myself obvious.

With an airhead like me... I won't be able to take revenge against that Bastard. Why am I so weak? Why am I able to not forget those painful memories? How long am I going to suffer in this hellish Nightmare?

I rubbed my forehead. People started talking about the Civil Rights movement plans and my head started to hurt even more. This wasn't the real me at all. What happened to the spoiled lovesick airhead?

What if I mess this up? Will I be able to take revenge that easily? Scrap that...

I moved my eyes up and forced myself to look into that bastard's eyes. My heart shattered and pain throbbed me as I wanted to pierce those icy blue eyes out of his damn socket.

I hated myself to not hate him at all.

Have I not changed? What will happen to my father if I mess this up? What if that homewrecker comes and destroys my fate? What if everything goes the way in my previous life?

Was I that much of a fool?

Hah~ I could still never forget the scars that this man has ever given me. Neither can I ever forget how much affection I have given this bastard.

A guard came rushing towards the Prince's side. I blinked twice when I looked up to see him leaning closer to the bastard's ears and whispering something.

What was going on?

Whatever it was... should I concern myself like this? The meeting was more important.

My eyebrows raised as I looked towards the door as if someone would burst in.

...

The Crown Prince stood up from his seat and raised his hands. We all silenced as we looked up at him.

"I have forgotten to tell you that there is a special guest arriving this evening..." he announced. I turned my head again to face the door.

A special guest? Was this different from my past life again? How many things have changed??

Murmurs faced against the meeting table. I clenched my fists. What the hell? Was this supposed to happen?

"...he is an ambassador from the Kingdom of Kyria..."

Soon the door open to let a dangerous aura in. Everyone's eyes trailed curiously to face the mysterious guest from Kyria.

Kyria? Wasn't that our former enemy kingdom?

I remembered we turned into allies after we signed the peace treaties not so long ago.

It was about twelve years??

But... what was an ambassador from Kyria going to do here? What was his role?
