Chapter 159: Reincarnated (2) (1/2)
In the hallway of the castle of Lustburg, a red-haired young girl wearing maid clothes was walking slowly, deep in thought.
Outside, the moon hung high in a cloudless sky, showing a scene worthy of the most beautiful painting.
But Kali had no time to enjoy.
Finally reaching her destination, she stopped in front of an office.
*Knock* *Knock* *Knock*
”This is Kali, your highness, could I talk to you?”
Kali didn't even notice how she was already used to calling Sol like that.
After she knocked, she could hear a flurry of sound from the other side. If it was in the past, she could have easily seen what was happening. But because of the seal, she was currently powerless.
'At least, he doesn't make me wear those clothes here.'
This was the sole consolation in this ordeal.
”You can enter.”
Finally receiving permission, she opened the door and was surprised to see a maid adjusting her ruffled clothes. It was a dark elf.
Kali might lack experience, but she didn't lack knowledge. What's more, the white stain on the corner of the maid's mouth was worth hundreds of words.
”Well then, your highness. I will take my leave.”
”Have a good day.”
The maid bowed elegantly before walking toward the exit.
Though, when she went past her, Kali murmured,
”Your lips.”
The elf tilted her head for a seconds before understanding dawned in her eyes and she proceeded to wipe out the white stuff.
Kali had to admit, seeing a bronze-skinned woman flush in embarrassment was pretty beautiful.
Once the maid left, Kali turned toward Sol,
”Heh, I thought you were supposed to work, but I guess you had more interesting things to do. Sorry for disturbing you.”
She had expected Sol to be a little flustered or embarrassed; but all he did was smile.
”I am not ashamed of fulfilling my needs. I am quite promiscuous, you know?”
”I have heard that Medea is your first love. Shouldn't you be loyal to her then?”
She was surprised. She couldn't help but wonder,
'Is he really from my world?'
From the history of Lustburg, it was easy to see that all Kings prior to him had something different. A drive about wanting to change the world in their views.
The same happened to her or rather it was much worse.
After all, she didn't reincarnate in a peaceful era.
Because of this, it had taken a long time for her to adapt to the reality of this new world.
But she could feel no such drive in him. It was as if he was perfectly integrated with this world, taking it as his own and forgetting his past.
Still, there was one easy way to be sure,
”What is your favorite anime?”
”Code Geass for me. What about you?”
”Puella Magi Madoka Magika.”
Silence fell between them.
”So you are really…”
She didn't finish and looked around her.
She knew that the tower was under the full surveillance of Medea. Even if she couldn't see everything at the same time, focusing on one room wasn't a problem and since Medea could do it, it means Ambrosia could do the same.
Sol of course understood her worry and shook his head,
”Medea, I don't know if you are observing, but please, if you are doing so, withdraw. I promise to explain everything to you one day.”
Sol received no answer, but the two of them could feel it. As if an invisible gaze had moved away.
”You won't ask mother?”
”No. She has no reason to listen to me and honestly...Do you really think she doesn't know?”
”...”
”Well, so let's cut to the chase, would you? When did you die?”
Kali understood the reason for this question, ”2017. What about you?”
”2019.”
”...”
”...”
Kali could feel her heart pumping so wildly in her chest it felt like it was about to explode.
Swallowing, she closed her eyes in thoughts
”If the time of our death is so close. Why is there such a difference in the time we were reincarnated in?”
This didn't make any sense.
This whole situation made absolutely no sense.
”*Sigh*, take a seat, please. I feel like this is going to be a long night.”
---
After this, the two of them began to discuss.
They already ascertained that even though the years they died in were close, there were no similarities.
Though the two of them were the same as in not knowing how they died.
After this, they asked each other different questions to verify if their two earths weren't parallel worlds or something of the like.
Once the discussion began to wind down, the two of them changed topics and talked about anime, manga, and the like.
Sol could only wince when he heard the deep longing in her voice.
This was something he couldn't emphasize with.
While it was true that he kind of missed his parents, he wasn't particularly interested in going back to his world.
Of course, if he had the occasion he would.
But only just to sightsee and ascertain the situation of his family.
After all, why would he want to leave?
He was born with a silver spoon.
No, calling it silver was an insult.
He was born with a diamond spoon encrusted with precious gems.
Calling his life easy mode would be the understatement of the years.
Here, he was Sol Luxuria. A prince and a future King as well as the son of a dragon.
He had everything a human could wish for.
He was rich.
He had a great status.
He was handsome.
