II. Preparation
WHO CARES? I ALREADY KNEW what they were plotting so I prevented it before anything could happen.
"This will suit me the best!"
No doubt this suit will be the most noticeable suit as it will contrast Clara's ebony hair. Of course that isn't the only reason. It is also because today is the long-awaited fate day.
"Isn't this going to be too fancy?"
"No, it is so beautiful."
As this party is a really important affair, such preparation is necessary. Why?
Today is the first day Clara meets the hero of the novel. As the male main character is going to wear a gold uniform and if I wear the same color I would at least receive a glance. And, if people surrounding drive up the atmosphere game over. My evil plan just started.
The hero of the novel is Alex, the son of the King and the heir to the throne.
He was the one who executed Cielle. By the way, Alex is my most favorite male character among countless other characters. This was the reason why I wanted to be Clara, not Cielle whose head is beheaded. Alex is the most ideal hero of a romance fantasy story.
He's smart, powerful, smart and is cold-hearted at all times but is warm towards his beloved woman. He is the sexiest guy of this era. He is the invincible sword master and once he thinks someone is the one, he obsesses madly. Dark indigo hair and the eye redder than ruby, I almost had a heart attack when I first saw the cover.
Oh, I love obsessed men. Alex is a genius who passed early graduation from the academy and he even took classes to be the next emperor. Of course the emperor wanted to afford the best bride for his son and that turned out to be, um, Cielle(Ciel now), so yeah it turns out to be me.
"What do you want to be when you grow up, Sis?"
"Hmm, I probably would want to marry a man and become a mother."
Oh my, what should I do with this unselfish and unambitious kid. I burst into tears watching Clara who wanted to be a good wife and wise mother. Unlike Clara, who lost her family since she was young and who wanted to have a normal and happy marriage.
Alex wasn't really interested in marriage. So at first, he decided to marry Cielle without hesitation. The problem is that Cielle found out Clara is an adopted child.
"You're not even our real family! You deceived me, you bitch!"
Cielle, filled with anger, insulted Clara in front of everyone. She even used some bad language a child should not use. Despite the conditions, it isn't pretty to look at an eight year old girl cursing her sister because she's adopted.
The readers were furious and the comment window was flaming. Anyway, Alex also witnessed this moment and recognized Cielle's malicious behavior and started to feel pity toward Clara.
This incident becomes the main reason Alex kills Cielle.
After that, Alex starts babysitting Clara like he is her mother bird. He started to hate Cielle who desired to become the crown princess and killed her in the end.
In order to keep a happy and safe rich life for myself, I have to pass this first test. I have to pass this test and connect the relationship between Clara and the Prince. If I am unlucky I could be directly thrown into hell. So what can I do? I have to help them get along well.
"You are going to be so beautiful in this dress. So please wear this dress as my birthday present!"
Clara standing in front of the fancy gold dress looked confused. It was because she would be wearing a dress more beautiful."
"But Young Master Ciel..."
"What, are there any problems?"
"No."
Mrs. Lisbon remained silent looking at my unpleasant face. It's obvious she'll be saying Ciel is the star so Clara cannot be too conspicuous. I was speechless looking at her remaining silence as I glared at her.
This Old Lady, argh I will let her take the spotlight so that I will not be killed!
"Can I really wear this dress?"
"Of course! I like you so much. I hope you look the best on my birthday!"
You tell me. Is being beautiful more important or my life? Clara, unaware of my desperate mind, hugged me with a grin on her face.
"I love you too, my younger brother."
As I noticed her eyes were turning red, I hugged her without words. Poor Clara. Before being adopted into Duke Valentine's family, she lived with her real family and had a younger sister. When her whole family decided to go on a trip, Clara had to be left behind because she had a fever. Her parents and younger sister said they will be back soon, and they would buy a gift on the way back and give her a kiss on the cheek. Their carriage was overturned on a rainy day and none of them came back alive.
"I am so glad I have a younger brother."
The day Cielle was born, Clara was truly glad. Honestly, if I wasn't reborn she would hog all the love of Duke and Duchess Valentine. Even though Clara could envy her sister, she never did. She sincerely loved Cielle.
Cielle reminded Clara of her dead younger sister. How sweet she is and dumb.
From now on, don't worry. I'm going to make you happy. I gave Clara the prettiest dress and took on my party suit. I started preparing for things after deciding on my sister's dress. My humble servant Meril kept smiling while combing my hair.
"You're handsome and adorable as always."
"You like me too much, Meril."
"Of course, I am so happy to serve you."
Meril was so loyal that she bullied Clara as Cielle told her to and was tortured until death a few days before Cielle was killed. I could not let such a loyal servant die like the original story. I sighed looking at Meril who had just turned eighteen.
"You are too nice to me."
"Of course, you are the most vulnerable master to me."
"Oh please, you shouldn't treat a little boy like that."
"You are so funny."
Even though I talk like a precocious child, no one suspected I had the mind of an adult. They just thought I was imitating them.
"My Son! Are you well prepared?"
"Dad!"
He was a handsome man with chocolate coloured hair. It was hard to believe he was a father of five kids. The real jack-of-all-trades in this novel. Also, he is a well-known husband who never went against his wife and a magician with immense power in the Valentine family.
"How handsome he is, my son."
"Oh please Dad." A-Ahem, I'm still not used to being called Handsome or Pretty Boy. Well My face in my past life I was just an average. Not so handsome but not so ugly.
And the most painful thing that happened to me is...I DIE VIRGIN!
"Dad, I want to see Clara. She is so pretty tonight."
"Oh, should we go and see her?"
"Yep!"
My command is absolute to Duke Valentine. I've never seen a man like this before. He just loves me so much...well like he loves Cielle so much in the original story. He would dance and sing if I told him to do so. Mom sometimes would look somewhat upset but dad doesn't care. I decided to take advantage of this. Because Cielle likes Clara, naturally Dad starts to care for Clara.
"Clara!"
Me and Duke Valentine appeared and every maid kneeled down.
"Clara, are you ready?"
"Yes, father."
How beautiful she is. The maids had to decorate her well because I gave them a mean look.
Ha. My sister is indeed beautiful.
