"Y..you have the heart to throw me away," said an old man in a disappointed tone. Disappointed with grandchildren and children who threw him into the forest.

The old man was Keyvano Maxcanvert. He was 70 years old, the very day his children and grandchildren threw him away.

In old age, which should be happy and enjoy old age with children and grandchildren and great-grandchildren. However, it was a huge disappointment.

"So, don't be a parent who is just a burden. Uncle, aunt, mother and father think you are just a burden!” said a young man who was about 18 years old.

His face is quite handsome, yellow hair with a sharp nose and sharp eyes like staring at prey. The chest area is also a muscular stomach. But baby, at birth. He has no manners.

Her name is Veravo Olbrians, the first grandchild of her eldest son. At the same time, a young man his age got out of the car.

"What Ravo said is true, you are just an old man with an excessive burden that becomes a parasite. Especially with your sick body," he continued mocking his grandfather.

If it is the first grandchild, then this is the second grandchild. Ravo twins, boy. His name is Vero Olbrians.

Keyvano's grandfather had 2 children, all boys. The second was unmarried at the age of 30. While the first child is married and has 2 wives.

Ravo and Vero are the children of the eldest son's first wife.

Back to the story....

"Never mind, talking to you is just a waste of our time," Vero said while pinching his grandfather's chin. Then slapped him and got back in the car.

"What's with the grandpa living in the Olbrians mansion? The company your father runs is also yours! Grandpa developed it!" Grandpa Keyvano exclaimed in a grandparental tone.

Ah, his eyes filled with tears at the behavior of his children and grandchildren. Maybe, if his wife wasn't dead. He will cry seeing the behavior of his children and grandchildren.

"You're right. But now the inheritance is in father's hands. So grandpa need not worry. Goodbye, it's late. The sky is also cloudy, it looks like it will rain soon. Have a nice day here old man, or I should call you grandpa," said Ravo walking to the car casually.

"D..damn, cursed you guys!" shouted Grandpa Keyvano.

Crashhhhh... .

The sound of rain starting to fall and pouring down on the earth, Ravo and Vero had entered the car and started the car leaving Keyvano's grandfather alone.

Day after day passed, Keyvano's grandfather did not move from his place. Silent waiting for his life to be taken away, following his wife in the wild.

'I'm ready to take my life,' thought Grandpa Keyvano resignedly.

Hoaammm ... .

Grandpa Keyvano steams when his eyes are very heavy. "I'm sleepy..." Keyvano's grandfather whispered.

Slow but sure. His vision continued to darken and disappear with time.

***

Grandpa Keyvano opened his eyes, but nothing was seen. 'Where is this?' asked Grandpa Keyvano feeling around him. Feels soft, like a mattress.

Knock knock....

"Lady, may I come in?" A woman's voice was heard making Keyvano's grandfather feel bad. What's more, she's called Lady who is specifically for a girl, isn't she?

"Who is it? Is there anyone?" asked Grandpa Keyvano half shouting.

"It's me lady, Kettie. Your personal maid," he answered behind the door.

'Since when did I have a personal maid? Have those damn children and grandchildren brought me back?' Grandpa Keyvano thought to himself.

"I'm in, Lady," said Kettie, opening the door. Footsteps sounded closer to where Keyvano's grandfather was currently.

Grandpa Keyvano did not answer. It was because he was lost in his own thoughts.

"Lady, are you all right?" asked Kettie worriedly looking at the figure in front of her.

"Who are you calling lady?" asked Grandpa Keyvano looking in the direction of the voice.

Praggg ... .

The sound of an iron tray dropping to the floor.

"L..lady, don't you remember me?" asked Kettie in surprise. Grandpa Keyvano furrowed his brows, then then. His face had a look of surprise.

'My voice has changed like a girl,' Grandpa Keyvano realized.

"Who are you! And explain where I am right now!" Keyvano's grandfather ordered a personal servant named Kettie.

Kettie then explained that Keyvano's grandfather was a girl named Xerion De Prescent. The youngest daughter of the noble Duke Present.

15 years old. And next year, right at the age of 16. Xerion will carry out a ceremony of maturity at the Cilveriont imperial palace.

The surprised look on Keyvano's face couldn't be hidden. 'I..I'm a girl? Since when?' Grandpa Keyvano thought directly feeling his chest.

Blush... .

A dark red liquid dripped from the bridge of his nose. 'Girl's body,' thought Grandpa Keyvano starting to lose consciousness because of the shock.

"Lady!" dimly, Keyvano's grandfather heard Kettie's voice screaming in surprise.

In the subconscious.

"Where is this?" Grandpa Keyvano mumbled wonderingly, now, he can see the scene that appears before his eyes.

Where, the flowers are blooming with the warm breeze typical of spring blowing from the east. Bringing flowers to fly dancing in the air.

"You are in the subconscious of my body grandfather," said a beautiful girl with a silvery blue mane looking at Keyvano's surprised grandfather.

"Who are you!" Grandpa Keyvano jerked back his steps.

"I am Xerion De Prescent. The youngest daughter of the Duke Prescent. To be more precise, the neglected princess," he replied sadly.

Grandpa Keyvano's alertness decreased when he heard what this girl named Xerion said.

"So, you were the one the maid mentioned by name? Why am I in your body? What happened?" asked Xerion's grandfather Keyvano.

Xerion then explained that Keyvano's grandfather had died. But his soul was saved by Xerion to help him.

Now, the identity of Keyvano's grandfather is not the old grandfather who was abandoned by his family. But a beautiful but blind young girl who has been abandoned by her family.

"Why did you save me!" Grandpa Keyvano snapped, if he didn't appreciate it. Maybe he had met his wife there.

“Please,” Xerion answered while sobbing.

"Grandfather is my only last hope. Everyone I asked for help refused. So I took Grandpa's soul that had left my body and forced it into my body," Xerion pleaded.

Keyvano's grandfather's hands clenched into fists. He didn't know what to do now, the girl in front of him looked so helpless. Same it seems.

But... this could be acting right?

Keyvano's grandfather leaked the sharply displayed girl. "What's the present for me?" asked Grandpa Keyvano.

"Grandfather can choose between going to heaven, staying in my body until you die. Or returning to your old body, but turning back time when you were 7 years old," Xerion replied.

Grandpa Keyvano nodded with a small smile. "Alright, I'll carry out a mission from you. What's the purpose?" asked Grandpa Keyvano leaking Xerion carefully.

In a prostrate position. Xerion replied, "Grandfather just needs to clear my tainted name, and make my name famous throughout the kingdom."

"Okay, I'll take it. That's all, won't it?" asked Grandpa Keyvano. Then, Xerion nodded. And suddenly. Keyvano's body began to disappear and looked a bit translucent.

"W..what happened to me?" asked Grandpa Keyvano surprised.

Xerion stood up and looked at Keyvano's grandfather with a grateful look. "Grandfather will return to the real world. Next time, our meeting, Grandpa will look younger," Xerion explained with a smile on the corner of his lips.

Tears of joy appeared from the corners of his eyes.

For some reason, a feeling of happiness arose in the recesses of his heart. "See you later," said Grandpa Keyvano.

***

Tup... .

Now that Xerion's body opened its eyes, the soul within his body was no longer the real Xerion. But the old grandfather who was abandoned by his family.

'Now, I will play my role as Xerion,' thought Keyvano's grandfather who is now called Xerion.

knock tock

There was another knock on the door, making the eyes that couldn't see it turn to the sound.

"Excuse me miss, I came with the doctor," said Kettie.

Check.... .

Ketty opened the door. Seen, an old man in a royal medical suit entered carrying a suitcase.

"Excuse me miss, I'll check on you," the doctor said as he grabbed Xerion's left hand on the edge of the bed.

Simultaneously, a notification appeared in the air.

"Ding ... active guidance system," the voice of the artificial intelligence or the so-called system.

'Hmmm?' Xerion cleared his throat when he heard that voice. "Who is that?" Xerion asked. Kettie and the doctor furrowed their brows in confusion.

"It's me, Kettie with the doctor-," Kettie didn't have time to answer. Xerion cut off his words first.

"I'm not asking the two of you, but the voice," Xerion explained.

"B..but there's no one else here besides the three of us," Kettie argued.

The doctor just watched without answering or arguing.

"Miss Kettie, it looks like we have to talk privately," said the doctor, inviting Kettie to speak privately.

"Verifying the host ... the wish system will guide you. Make you feel and fantasize, but the system can't let you see for now," said the system floating in the air as a transparent panel.

"What's that?" Xerion asked, furrowing his brows.

"I am the system," replied the system in his trademark tone.

"The system is asked to guide you to become famous and make the dirty name of the owner of this body cleared," the system continued.

Xerion nodded in understanding. Since he came from the future, he must know what a system is. At least, he had read some comics and novels with the Sci-Fi genre or the future genre with the system.

"Alright, please help going forward. Since this body can't see," Xerion begged to look in the direction the system voice appeared.

"Ding...order received," replied the system.

In contrast to Xerion who sat leaning on a hard mattress. Kettie and the doctor talked about Xerion's condition.

"It seems Lady Xerion has a mental breakdown," explained the doctor. Kettie's eyes widened at the doctor's brief words.

"Impossible doc! Lady just suffered a blow to the head. It's impossible to have a mental disorder," argued Kettie disapprovingly.

"Didn't you see for yourself? This is caused by some parts of the brain being shaken causing some damage to the soul of the lady. Especially before hitting her head... you always get emotional, don't you?" obviously the doctor is also concerned.

'I wish, I wish I were rich. I will free the lady from this cursed mansion and make her happy. I can't bear to see it,' the doctor shouted.

'L..lady, because your memory is gone. I'll get you out of this damned place,' Kettie thought, biting her thumb nail."Thank you doc! This is the fee, please don't tell anyone!" said Kettie pleading and gave 5 gold coins that she had worked for over 10 years in the Duke's mansion now.

"B..but miss, this is your salary. I sincerely check the lady," said the doctor with a smile that could make women scream.

Brakk ... .

Kettie immediately knelt down and said, "Thank you, thank you. You are very kind doctor. God bless you."

The doctor was immediately surprised to see Kettie kneeling in front of him. "M..miss, don't kneel. I..I'm sincere, so please don't kneel. I feel bad," said the doctor helping Kettie up.

"Once again I thank you doc!" said Kettie moved, the doctor just smiled at him.

"It's okay miss, I have another job so I can't afford to linger here. I beg you to say goodbye," said the doctor, lifting his suitcase which was lying on the floor of the mansion.

The Kettie smiled, a sign that he agreed to say goodbye to the doctor. Then after that, Kettie went into her Lady's room. And saw that the lady was sleeping.

"Sleep well lady, hopefully tomorrow all the problems that occur today are just a dream. Hope, then with all my might. I will make it happen, even if I have a contract with the devil," said the Kettie stroking the lady's hair and kissing the top of her forehead warmly.

The next morning, Kettie returned with a tray of rice porridge.

"Ding... host, you have a mission," said the system that suddenly appeared in front of Xerion.

"Read the mission," Xerion whispered only he and the system could hear.

The system also reads out the missions written on the system screen.

[Mission]

[Task: Dine with the original Xerion family.]

[Reward: 7 magic towers.]

[Penalty: Failed to catch a cold for 7 consecutive days.]

'****! How can there be a forced mission!' Xerion snapped. Turning towards Kettie, Xerion then spoke up.

"Kettie, can you take me to the table..." Xerion whispered with a grim expression on his face.

The first step is to complete the mission. 'Heh, my acting is the best. It even deserves 12 Oscars in a row,' thought Xerion proudly.

"B..but lady, you will get ..." answered Kettie softly unable to continue her speech, afraid that she would be hurt.

'Just have to wait another 2 months, then I'll get that lady out of here,' thought Kettie, clenching her fists.

He will love and care for his woman with all his heart, like the lady who used to love and love him. He already thought of her as his own sister. It's impossible to leave it here right? Except he doesn't have a heart.

"Help Kettie," Xerion pleaded as he turned to Kettie. Beads of clear liquid flowed from Xerion's bandaged eyelids.

"Okay, Miss," said Kettie. It was lady's wish, didn't she promise to do something? Even sacrificing himself and making a pact with the devil?

A calm smile that was able to calm the heart appeared from the corner of Xerion's lips. Kettie who saw it smiled helplessly inwardly.

"But before that. Lady has to change into fancy clothes," said Kettie walking to a closet full of worn dresses.

"No, there's no need to wear fancy dresses just to eat," Xerion said quickly. Kate stopped.

"Lady, if you really want to enter the dining room. Then you must obey me this time," said Kettie without objection.

'Hufft, troublesome,' thought Xerion resignedly. Kettie smiled and picked up a dress that seemed to fit the lady being served.

A few moments passed, Kettie dressed Xerion.

'I really can't see it. But I find this dress very heavy,' Xerion groaned inwardly.

'How can this age be so troublesome. Luckily there was a waiter. If not, it might be troublesome,' Xerion continued to himself.

"Okay lady, we're done. Come with me to the dining room," said Kettie as she led her madam by holding her hand and walking towards her destination.

Xerion nodded, walking led. Counting every step, second and measure to be able to imagine the plan of this big house.

He didn't see it, but he knew. Yes of course he knew, because the real Xerion was told.

"We're here, lady," Kettie said to her mistress.

Krieett

The sound of the door opening, signaling that what Kettie said was true.

Along the way. Xerion felt many gazes of disdain, dislike, envy and hatred. No mercy or anything like that.

"Thank you, Kettie," Xerion said sincerely. The admiration is undeniable. In all centuries, finding a sincere person has been difficult.

"You're welcome, let me walk you to your table," said Kettie happily. Finally the lady began to change. Yesterday, he felt that the lady he served had changed a bit and even then that feeling was uncertain.

But now, Kettie saw it for herself. the lady has changed. Not like the previous lady. Always cheerful and enduring pain, there are only women who are quiet and graceful.

'Hopefully Miss changes for the better,' thought Kettie hopefully.

'Let me guess, they must be looking at me with scornful and disapproving eyes,' Xerion thought smiling in his mind.

A voice of disappointment sounded from in front of Xerion. "Why is a crippled girl like you in this dining room?" said someone in a heavy tone that could be ascertained that it was a man.

"System, who is it?" Xerion whispered to the system.

"Ding... he is the father of the original Xerion, his face is still quite handsome even though he is old. His name is Jeroy Cavelian De Prescent, Duke Prescent," replied the system.

'That girl didn't say that I should treat her family gently. So, I can treat them however I want right? Let's make them regret it. Because I like to feel or see other people's regrets,' Xerion thought smiling.

"I just want to remember who my family is. Why didn't they come when I was sick? Why didn't they support me," Xerion replied to the man called the father.

Laughter echoed, sarcastic and mocking laughter.

"Since you were blind, no one has ever been your family. No one even wants to be your family," said someone whose voice sounded like an aged woman.

"That woman is Yveliana Bern De Prescent. The wife of Duke Prescent. The real mother of Xerion," replied the system without being asked.

Xerion nodded at the system's words. But it's different with Yveliana who considers it a mockery.

Pragg ... .

A glass float hit the face of a girl who was none other than Xerion. It's not like Xerion can dodge. however, Xerion didn't want to. Keep that in mind, DON'T WANT.

Why don't you want to? The answer is only one. Xerion wanted to make them feel more remorse. More and more wounds on Xerion's body. The greater their regret.

Tess tess ... .

Warm and fresh blood flowed from Xerion's face. 'Ah, it looks like it's bleeding. It hurts, but it's not much,' Xerion thought casually.

Meanwhile, Kettie was shocked. His eyes widened at the lady's face being served. Looking towards the Xerion family. No one was worried. Even looks happy.

"Lady!" Kettie exclaimed in surprise. Luckily Kettie had a handkerchief. So Kettie could wipe her lady's face and remove any remaining shards of glass.

"Thank you Kettie," Xerion said with a genuine smile despite the pain on his face.

Kate was crying. Can't stop thinking about the lady this girl serves. He was able to smile even when he was hurt.

"Don't smile, miss! You're hurt, you should be complaining about pain. Not smiling," said Kettie with 18th century thinking.

Instantly, pain and restlessness arose in the Xerion family's hearts. "You're wrong Kettie. We have to smile even when we're sick. Hide the pain and keep smiling. That's the meaning of Adulthood," Xerion explained gently.

'Ah, I'm getting more and more impatient waiting for their look of regret.' A bubbling curiosity rose in Xerion's heart. But Xerion was able to withstand it.
