A few days have passed since Zagerus came to visit Rea.
The next week, Rea was still thinking about him coming to visit her. Hey, Earth to Rea? I asked. Oh, yes Delilah? Rea asked. I heard a certain god visited you? I asked. Oh, he tried nothing with me. He only came out of concern. Rea replied. Yeah, ok. It's out of a quote unquote out of "concern". I asked. No offense Rea, but he tried to kidnap you last time. Otome replied. That maybe true. He is actually a sweet guy once you get to know him. Rea replied. He wasn't hostile like he usually was. Valkyrie replied. Wait Valkyrie, my dad sent you here to protect me with Alexandre, right? I asked. Yes, Bell is a pain in my a**. Ever since I met him when I was a child. Valkyrie replied. Wait, how old are they both of you? I asked. Since, Bell is 4,017 years old. I am 2,017 years old. He would constantly ridicule me until I pulled out my imperial weapon. Valkyrie replied. I really cannot imagine Alexandre being a bully. I replied. Yeah, same for me too. Otome replied. He's always been kind and sweet to us. Rea replied. Whatever. Valkyrie replied. The bell rang, and we scurried to our first classes. Hey now that I think about it. What is that girl with the long pigtails? Ian asked. Oh, I never introduced myself now that I think about. Valkyrie replied. My name is Rhian Hjalmþrimul. Valkyrie replied. Wow, that's an interesting name. Ian replied. I asked her questions. That's your real name? I asked. I take my mother's name. Valkyrie replied. Wait, so your half-Valkyrie? I asked. Yes, that the only reason I can wield my Imperial Weapon. Valkyrie replied. It is amazing that you can wield such a heavy weapon with such effort. I want to see that weapon one day. I replied.
As the day flies, it's after school.
Rea, Otome and I bring Valkyrie to Forsythia Café.
Hello ladies, welcome to Forsythia Café. Arnold replied.
Hey Arnold, I see your running shift today? Rea asked.
Valkyrie, why are you giving Arnold that look? Rea asked. Is Valkyrie your name or your nickname? Arnold asked. It's my nickname. Valkyrie replied. Are you sure? Arnold asked. Come on, Valkyrie, let's find a seat. Rea replied. Hey Rea, that guy, I feel like I have met that guy before. Valkyrie replied. How could you have? Otome asked. Well, he sounds like my older brother. Valkyrie replied. So he has cool powers too? Otome asked. No, we are half siblings. His father was on his deathbed. He begged my mom if she could make him the happiest man he can be. My father lived, but I never met him. My mother was too busy with her duties. Odin just gave me to the Crimson Emperor because he didn't want to play babysitter anymore. Valkyrie replied.
Hey ladies and Valkyrie. Alexandre replied.
Jax showed us to our table.
Alexandre pat him on his back. Don't think too much into it. Alexandre replied. He's still thinking about how Alexandre told him he fell into Otome's lap. He took everyone's order and walked back.265Please respect copyright.PENANAZhDF3WYOTu
Wow, so you ordered Blue Heaven Ice Cream. Rea replied. Just how much is on your budget? I asked. Oh, I just live off my wages of killing monsters under your father, the Emperor. Valkyrie replied. So how many people are working for my father? I asked. He has his hand-picked twelve warriors. I am Valkyrie, The Maiden of the Heaven. My holy sword, Laevateinn, slays any evil in my path. Valkyrie replied. What is Alexandre's epithet? I asked. Why don't you ask him? Valkyrie asked. Why are you not telling me? I asked. Why don't you ask him for just epithet? Valkyrie asked. I started pouting. Why don't you ask, Delilah? Rea asked. I'll ask him later. I replied. Alexandre smiled. Oh my, who is that handsome man he appeared here today? Curia asked. What are you talking about, Curia? Alexandre asked.265Please respect copyright.PENANA1aIYV2H00Q
He saw the man, and it was the Crimson Emperor. Why are you here? Alexandre asked. I am here as an observer. I see my plan of asking her to come here, to help her learn about her human heritage. Visyn replied. She is happy, just look. Visyn replied. As Jax brought out food. Hey, let me try some Blue Heaven. I replied. It's basically Blue Raspberry flavor. Otome replied. Valkyrie eats the ice cream. My brother loves this flavor. Otome replied. Eating sweets like this is a rare delicacy for me. Valkyrie replied. What, seriously? Rea asked. Yes, now that I think about it. I never had a regular girl childhood, to be honest. This is the most I've acted like a human girl. Valkyrie replied. We need to take you to the mall this weekend. Rea replied. What? Valkyrie asked. We can go out shopping and come by afterwards. I replied. That is just some ice cream flavors we have. Jax replied. Where did you come from, Jax? Rea replied. I came back with your bills. Jax replied. Valkyrie pulled out her card. You are definitely in league with Alexandre. He has a golden card like that too. Jax replied. Hey, who is that person with Alexandre? Rea asked. He is quite handsome.265Please respect copyright.PENANAu8pnIIROGG
Valkyrie looked.265Please respect copyright.PENANAlzSXkn1yek
Why is the emperor here? Valkyrie thought. That guy has only Alexandre to take his order. Jax replied. He didn't really start coming here around until Delilah started coming here. Jax replied. He doesn't talk much. When he talks, so many women crowded around him. Makes me wonder if he is a married man? Jax asked. No more on the lines of watching his child and a woman he loves from a distance. Valkyrie replied. Why wouldn't he talk to them? I asked. It's very complicated for him. Valkyrie replied.265Please respect copyright.PENANAJ50mjudwmi
Twenty minutes later.265Please respect copyright.PENANAvpe1twI4q8
We left. That man smiled.265Please respect copyright.PENANAobJFwifNAY
I felt like I have seen him smile before.265Please respect copyright.PENANA87H9ISujaA
You know, hiding like this isn't healthy for you or her. Alexandre replied. You're right, I feel responsible for her everything that has happened to her. Visyn replied. I wouldn't recommend any magic like that? Remember what happened last time. Alexandre replied. You are such a killjoy. Visyn replied. I will do it. Visyn replied. I wish Clover was here. Alexandre replied. No, that annoying mother-in-law is a killjoy too. Visyn replied. For a man who is an Emperor of a country is playing a lone bachelor. My wife and I are divorced. She cheated me on me and I got even. Our marriage was nothing more than a black widow after my money. Visyn replied. I left that woman or her children with no money in my will. I only left my only daughter, Delilah, my inheritance. She will claim my title, but I feel she will be a different ruler one day. Please help and protect her with your life, my slayer of the demons. Visyn replied.
In the near off future, I am sitting in my bed in the palace. I was thinking about my life. Alexandre on his knees and kissing my palm. My empress, what do you desire of me? Alexandre asked.265Please respect copyright.PENANAFtdoaBQpB1
As he said that, I could tell he was hiding something from me.
Stay Tuned.
