Extra Chapter: Julius Part 1
unedited
That night, Tianne attended the party that the Royal Family opened after a long time. Tianne’s participation caused the surrounding to stir. The person in question doesn’t really care. More important than that, finding that specific person is more difficult.
Towards the buzzle that’s getting louder, Tianne hid her mouth with the fan and laughed.
The person of interest came out with her hand being pulled by Tianne’s former fiancée, Julius.
So that’s aforementioned girl.
As Tianne was looking at her observingly, she suddenly met Julius’ eyes.
Feeling irritated by Julius who froze from shock for a moment, Tianne narrows her eyes and gives him a cold look.
Pretending to be calm, Julius turned his face away from her, it looked pale. Seeing his appearance, the lady near Julius looked at her direction.
‘Ah’, after making a surprised face, she made a satisfied expression and smiled her way over.
I see. So he landed himself quite a beautiful girl.
Tianne made an aristocrat-like expression and turned her feet towards her.
[Greetings. Your Highness Julius and “Priestess of the Passage of Dreams”-sama. I am Tianne Yurks.]
Noise aroused from the surrounding at Tianne who smiled but Julius noticed her complicated expression, the “Priestess of the Passage of Dreams”’s hands tightly intertwined on his own arm and smiling as if their closeness is a natural thing.
[Good evening. I know you very well from my dream travels. Oh, I’m Lisa.]
[Is that so.]
The surrounding became noisy upon Lisa’s remarks, and for some reason the people from the Temple behind her were wearing proud faces. Tianne could tell her emotions are growing colder.
[Actually, I’ve always wanted to talk with the Priestess so I came. It’s an honor to meet you.]
[I’m not that great. More importantly, you are also outstanding. You were not defeated by that evil woman and assisted Julius and his friends. Moreover, you accepted the annulment of your engagement with Julius without any complaints. So you understood that you are not suitable for Julius. You did great.]
Tianne wanted to sigh. Of course, she’s not going to do it in this place.
What’s with this woman’s attitude that gets on my nerves?
Also, she’s talking about some confidential matters. Well, some of the contents seem to be wrong.
Tianne looked at Julius with cold eyes.
She’s telling him why he’s leaving someone like her unattended.
Julius silently sighed and proposed they move to a different location.
Tianne and Lisa agreed with his proposal and moved to a different place with the people from the temple.
There, Julius began explaining about the matter regarding Lisa.
Lisa was living in an orphanage far from the kingdom. However one day, she saw a mysterious dream. That was about a girl named Lilia who was charming 5 men. And there was also Tianne’s figure warning them. Although Lisa thought that it was just a dream, she was still very curious so she headed to the Kingdom’s capital. However, she will like be thought of as a crazy person. She happened to meet a person from the temple and apparently identified her as the “Priestess of the Passage of Dreams”.
Hm~. Somehow, this situation is,
Tianne stays quiet and observes Lisa.
Perhaps, this girl is also like me…. a reincarnator. However, on top of having not confirmed of it yet………. this attitude pisses me off. Now then, I wonder how I’m going to cook this woman. Only Julius’ body started trembling and sweating at the air Tianne is emitting.
[That the predecessor of the temple’s Priestess came from the Yurks Family, you know, right?]
[Of course.]
[Despite this, I wonder how you know that she’s the Priestess of the Passage of reams? Oh, it’s not that I’m doubting you so please do not misunderstand.]
I’m not doubting you, I just want to confirm.
[Right. Actually, the orphanage she was in was owned by the Yurks Family. The late Marcel Yurks could have brought her in that orphanage incognito.]
[….That is, would you like to say that my father had a child with another person other than my mother, and that he hid her in the orphanage?]
Tianne realized that the switch within her has been flipped.
They’re ridiculing them. These people from the temple are, towards the Yurks family.
[That’s definitely the case! I’m not the type of person who belongs in that kind of place, after all!] (L)
[Please be quiet.](T)
Tianne erased her facial expressions and silenced the excitedly talking Lisa with a glare.
With that, the people from the temple hurriedly covered Lisa behind them. That is to say, they’re insinuating how she could say such a thing to the priestess.
Tianne then understood what she needs to do.
[Priestess Priestess Priestess. So noisy. Fine then, what a real priestess’s power is like, I will show you.]
[Eh?]
[TIANNE?!]
[This is a punishment for you, too. Julius.]
*Snap*. After Tianne snapped her fingers, Lisa collapsed. Although the people from the temple are assisting her in a panic, they’re looking a Lisa and Tianne alternately in bewilderment. She laughs on their reaction and when she snaps her fingers again, Julius collapsed. The servants hurriedly supports him.
[I see that Your Majesty the King has come.]
[So you noticed.]
[I will leave the rest to you. “In a lot of ways”.]
[Yeah. To think you will once again lend us your power this soon, oh Priestess…. I apologize.]
[………….Well then,]
*Snap*. The King himself scooped up Tianne’s body which has collapsed. And then, he laughed at the pale-faced Temple people before him.
It would have been fine whether that girl was the real one or not. Their real purpose might have been to introduce the existing Priestess in their hands to the public and to have the power from the Royal Family transferred to the Temple but, they were unlucky. Indeed, they probably never even imagined that the existence which hasn’t made an appearance for many years to appear.
Now then, I should also do some punishing on my side. For Tianne’s sake as well.
