Ficool

Chapter 2 - Chapter 2

I was standing in the middle of the castle. The terrace beside my room.

The number of people who protested slowly rose. They were outside the castle gates, the guards had already quit from stopping them because of their violence.

Everyone spoked badly of me.

"Oh,ungrateful witch...! You should not have been the one to be in charge. How can a prince's brain be lowly as an animal?"

The man who cried gave me a feirce look.

I went back to my room and asked my be, Barron.

"Barron give me the affairs happening in the empire right now."

I demanded eagerly.

"Yes, your majesty."

Straight to the point, earlier this week men have been rapidly decreasing because of a certain alcohol. Almost 20% of the country died because of this. Right now, alchemy's sorcerers, and doctors are investigating on it.

The vegetation in the southern region have been ruined because of the typhoon that just ended two days ago. Most of the biggest bread and meat production are located there, resulting in the rapid decrease of food supplies. A fire broke out in Lancaster, the main square of the capital. Many people died during the incident and only two familes survive...

And it continued until night, while I was listening, I was arranging and ordering my men to help the people. I stayed up all night because of the countless events unsolved.

My eyes were baggy throughout the next day, The royal doctor said that I should get sleep or I might get ill. But I insisted on doing so only if I skimmed through all the documents to be read.

I, again didn't wink my eyes for the day. I was at my limit. I swiftly ran over to my massive room and jumped on the bouncy bed. But throughout my exhausting days.

I sensed something amiss. The councillor who was a scholar of the country and a genius of the century, couldn't find a solution to these problems. I am aware about the circumstances he have to go through, but I gave the job to him since I ought to get myself familiar with this place before I do anything.

What the strange thing is, the past records of events in the country were mostly celebrations and festivals. Only a few occur of incidents or stock market problems.

After I woke up, I ordered the chef to bring me packed meals.

"Packed meals, your majesty?"

The chef was amazed.

"Yes, make sure to make it to last me two weeks."

I said Innocently with my chocolate-brown hair and purple-ham eyes.

***

"Your what!? Why? You can't just leave. This country need someone to rule. And only you with that one job can do it."

Barron yelled at me loudly as I pick out my clothes.

"Barron, calm down. I won't leave for 2 months or years. I will be out for only 2 weeks."

I denied.

"Still, even a day without a ruler can cause problems to his or her empire. We can't be without you."

My eyes were watering.

"Barron." I dropped off to what I'm doing and narrowed our distance.

"I won't leave you, I will just gone for 14 days then come ba.."

I tried to seduced him with my acting skills.

Before I could even finish, he interrupted.

"I won't allow this majesty."

He stared coldly at me.

"If so, then teach me how to enhance my power."

I smiled innocently.

"Teach you... I thought your majesty doesn't want to. Because that power is an inheritance of your mother."

"...I'm not dumb enough to do so."

I frowned.

"Whatever you say."

His eyes widened.

I asked the maid to prepare me an attire I can practice in with ease. She gave me a casual green top and bottom with a gentle coat.

"Perfect." I exclaimed.

***

I walked to the training area where my mother used to train in.

It was massive, almost like a giant's house.

Ellison guided me the way to the area.

"We're here, my prince." he said. "Thank you." I replied.

"So, what do I need to do Barron?"I smirked at him.

"Rest easy, you're Highness won't be able to handle me."

"Are you dumb? that's why I'm here to learn."

I replied in anger.

"We'll proceed with the training." Barron ignored me.

Three men were standing infront of me with an enemy-like stance. Two of them were from the Titanicia academy and the other one was the councillor.

"Why are you all standing like that?" I asked.

"You're majesty please be ready." Richard coldly said.

'Ready...?'

"HIYA!" The female professor shouted.

She made a ball of power and blasted it to me.

'Ugh..'

It went through my body. My chest bled as I halt it with my hands. But it's odd that I'm not feeling any pain.

Councillor was the next to empower.

He manipulated all the bits of rocks to him, and threw it to me with great strength.

The first batch of rock clashed to my face, then my chest, and is my legs. It struck as flames to my severed body.

My skin was crimson red; like brown was not my orginal tint.

The final attacker is the dean of Titanicia Academy. He is supposed to be busy to prepare for the festival.

'Why is he here?'
