"Long time ago, the world with the nymphs are the well-said companion of human. Together they organize nature however, the greediness of humans came to end. They angered the goddess of nature, and she let her beloved nymphs to isolate from the human. Nevertheless, a mysterious person with a gifted infinite power built a kingdom that no one will ever, ever repudiate the rules." - - -

She's been reading the ancient book of the kingdom Igdrythys. Some time ago, her life has been shattered when she suddenly died from an accident. It wasn't her time yet. She hasn't even experienced dating, finding a handsome man, and doing some adult stuff. But how can she accept her fate if she woke up one day in a grandeur mansion? She couldn't comprehend, for her, it felt surreal. As soon as she opened her eyes, she saw three people wearing a maid's outfit busy preparing a woman's dress and filling water in the bathtub. While she was there watching them doing some errands, she thought it was just a dream. Yes, she knew it was just a dream since she died maybe the reaper angel has a conscience for her to give her luxurious beauty treatment before she vanished in the world. She even smiles from ear to ear because it was her first time to be attended by cosplayers. However, the smile on her lips was suddenly fade when of them asks her to undress her clothes. "What the hell is going on???" She rubbed her eyes and pinched her cheeks to feel the pain and if she was still dreaming, then she realized that she was alive. She died, didn't she?---- She freaks out in horror.

"Milady are you not feeling well? These past few days you're always spacing out," Her missharv asked her. (missharv a contract loyal maid for the noble lady).

"I'm billion percent fine," She stood up from the bed and went to the vanity mirror, she boldly stared at the woman in front of her. The body whence she has is indeed beautiful. She has blonde hair that matches her aquamarine eyes. Her delicate body can be fragile if she does heavy chores. What a lucky woman, she has everything from a beautiful face, a wealthy and powerful family, and even the only daughter of an outstanding Count. She is Tyrese Cael from House of Rostone. The only daughter of Count Arthur Rostone and Countess Adele Rostone.

When she got used to that place, she studied every detail of the place where she lives. She easily made everyone comfortable with her. The freedom she felt in the Count's palace is to her liking. The place is somewhat she was familiar with.

"Miska, prepare my dress now, let's go out while the season of sweet is popular in Central town."

"But my lady, you aren't allowed to go out," "Why?" Tyrese asked her ridiculously.

"The Count grounded you for playing sword with the knights". Miska said while having a stiff face. "Goodness gracious?!!!" She couldn't think of how to escape.

"Milady, you shouldn't have to plan to escape either" - "Are you a mind reader now? What if I give you five silver? Won't you change your mind?"

"No! Milady, are you bribing me? My wages are higher than five silver," her face was full of determination to ignore her request. 'Where the hell is her loyalty?'

Knock!!! Knock!!!!

"Milady, Your father is asking for your presence," they were interrupted by the other maid. She couldn't believe the Count was looking for her; she will meet him for the first time, not as Tyrese, her daughter, but herself from another world. She went to the Count's receiving office. She was hesitant to enter the Count's office. She was feeling uncomfortable in front of the office, her hands were sweating, and her heart rapidly beats in nervous.

"What are you doing outside of my office?" She startled by the deep-voiced so, she looks around to see where the voice was coming from. "Are looking for something Tyrese?" the voice asked again. She thinks there might be hidden cameras in the corner, her eyes wander. Then realize that it wasn't the modern world. She felt embarrassed by what she did.

She then entered the Count's office.

The room was cozy but manly. Shady rosewood bookshelves are lining the entire right-hand wall where the books and files are well organized. There are a leather charcoal grey sofa and a shabby chic coffee table that matches the cream and white rug fur. Also, the study table of the Count has quite a bit disorganized because of the two overflowed pieces of paperwork. Behind his study table, the expensive paintings are hanging on the wall, and a clear glass fixed window compliments the sunlight and the grey tone office of the Count. An elegant yet typical workroom of a workaholic person.

Tyrese looked at Count suppressing his laughter. "Are you the one who talked to me outside?" she's quite annoyed with him. "What are doing out of the blue?" As he returns her question to her still holding his chuckle. She let a sigh and stared at the Count, well whoever can meet the Count, he will be mistaken as a tyrant. He doesn't look like his age because he looks young, but he has a stern temperament that maybe some wicked aristocrats were avoiding him. He looks at Tyrese with a stoic face.

"Why did you that? How did you that? Do you have some powers?"

"Are forgetting something, my dear daughter?" His eyes bore into her. "Our family blessed with special quirks and you have that. Am I right?" he added.

"Yes..... Uhmmm.... but why did you summon my presence father?" She changes the topic so that the Count won't notice that she doesn't know what she was talking about. She glances at him for a second, she was thinking about how she will read his thoughts based on the mood. "Tyrese, my daughter is now a fine lady."

"Yes, I know that fact father," nodding her head. "Your mother has been ignoring me since the day of your punishment. I will now lift your punishment. But promise me that you will never play a sword." So, that is the reason for his whim!

"Yes, father but I can't promise". She speedily walks out of the room because his stare was menacing with danger.

Tyrese's memories are still vivid in her head, she can behave well in her surrounding. The original Tyrese was fun of playing sword. She can be a swordsman someday if she wanted to. Every day she was sneaking out to go to the knights training ground and trained with the knights. However, the news of her training of sword was found out by Count Rostone and the knights also received punishment bestowed by the Dame Commander. She receives a mild punishment and she was scolded by her father. She can say, Tyrese's father is overprotected to her perhaps she was the only daughter. She felt jealous of them, their bond, and their love as family. It may sound selfish but if she can talk to the original Tyrese she will ask her to stay for a while in her body because she was an orphan, searching for a love of family.

How blessed she is. She has the skills of sword and the House of Rostone blood lineage continues to grow like her three older brothers. Her older brother, who have the quirks of summoning great creatures, and also won and brought victory in the kingdom. Her second brother is the royal minister of the Igdrythys palace was known as the most genius in the century and her third brother is the next mage. Tyrese has three handsome brothers and they're all legends. Her father is also called an epic hero who conquest the Llanfechare mountain (mountain of monsters that live for a thousand years). No wonder she loves swords because her family prevailed with the power of wealth and mana.

"Miska, tell the coachman to prepare the carriage" as Tyrese preparing herself it will be her first time to visit the Central town since she reincarnated to this world.

"Yes my lady"

She was incredibly excited to explore this whole new world. To meet new people and to eat delicacies is one of her bucket list in her past life. In her past life, she barely eats delicious and expensive food, now that was allowed to be alive and free, she will do everything till she feels the satisfaction of life. She hastily went outside: there she saw the coachman and Miska waiting for her when she caught a glimpse of her father with his guests, she can't see the guest face, perhaps merely some merchants proposing business to her father.

She hops inside the carriage her feet excitedly want to walk around the Central town. She even stared at the window to watch the beautiful scenery, the tall pine trees, the green bushes, and the huge houses. The carriage stopped which signals that they have arrived. Upon stepping out from the carriage she can't resist touring her eyes. People are busy working and it feels lively. One time the maids are talking about the Central town, she overheard it; she asked Miska if can go out to the Central town. Miska's loyalty was undeniably for her parents. Poor Tyrese.

The first shop went through is the dessert shop. Wow!! The freshness of the strawberry tarts melts in her mouth. She even closed her eyes and feels the imaginary fireworks around her but while savoring the sweetness, she senses someone is watching her eating desserts. She then opened her eyes and in front of her, there was a man intently staring at her through the transparent glass. The man was wearing a black cloak, he was a tall and well-built man, and his dark emerald eyes can catches attraction.

"Who the heck he was gazing at?" talking to herself. She innocently wanders around to see where he's looking but when she returned her gazed to him, unfortunately, the mysterious man disappears. The sensation of the man tickles her heart.

When she finished eating, she decided to explore all the shops. She bought a bunch of accessories. Tyrese never realizes the time and enjoyed buying pieces of stuff and eating foods.

When she realized the sun fell asleep, shielding behind the tall establishments implying people to take a rest from the long hour of work. As they reach their carriage and ready to take off; the coachman's gesture of uneasiness tells her that something was wrong.

"My apologies madame, we need another carriage. The carriage wheel was quite bad. It will make you uncomfortable to use."

"But don't worry my lady we informed the butler to send another carriage," Miska answered my unspoken thought.

"I will return to the pudding shop while waiting for the carriage to come." She said running away from them. Thinking it will the best way to run off from Miska.

"My lady please wait" Tyrese heard Miska almost shouting in the distance. When Miska is out of nowhere to be seen. She continues strolling without her knowing the danger that awaits. The twilight glows saying to leave and be at home but her feet brought her somewhere then she stopped in a narrow alley, hence, she heard someone talking suspiciously.

"Y-you, you, don't come near me! You bastard!" as the aged man shouting at the man wearing black-cloaked. The aged man trembling in fear kneeling on the ground.

That's why there's a saying that curiosity kills the cat.

She peeked at them. Unfortunately, she was familiar with the man in a black cloak. She has absentmindedly forgotten where she saw him.

"Master? Should we eliminate this pest? " asserted the other man, that man also wears a black cloak. It is solely three-man, but the two-man wearing cloaks are showing an aura of authority.

"Do as you ple---" The man suspended to talk when he glances to where she was hiding. The man who was called master suddenly walked towards her. To her fear, she accidentally tripped her foot that made a noise when the man was in front of her pointing his sword. Tyrese closed her eyes to her fear while waiting for the man's movement. She was just sitting down at the ground holding her breath, trembling as he lifts her head to level his gaze.

"Oh please dear ground open up and swallow me this instance" mumbling to herself. She was petrified by the man's dominating tone.

But she has forgotten that sensation when the man gazes at her, in-depth to her dark emerald eyes holding so many secrets. He's so handsome that made her heart beating fast.

^^^She was too weak for a handsome man.^^^

"Do you know what I did to a person who loves eavesdropping?" The beautiful man said that snapped her thoughts. She was about to faint because of his deep and husky voice.

"Ca--- can you put down your sword first?" She looks at the sword. She was flabbergasted at his sword, which was the latest edition of the famous blacksmith. The blacksmith never created the sword rather he searched for it, eventually, he gave the sword to someone, and that someone is him. The man in front of him.

Vanthrizl sword.

The Vanthrizl sword chooses its own master, the sword that can transform into any different forms if it wishes moreover it has distinct characteristics: the slicing-edge of the leaf blade that cuts when it swung, the unexceptional light feather hilt that if the master's hold it in a full force, they can create a great blend in the battle. She unexpectedly knew all of this, she genuinely knew it. At the time of the original Tyrese's confinement, she secretly studied swords. Now, it becomes her habit to distinguish a sword. It conceivably because her mind and Tyrese's mind became one.

She rephrases what she said earlier that her weakness is a handsome man. Her weakness is her handsome swords.

"Who are you?" The man in front of her asking her. Instead, she raised a question to him about the sword that made his confidant stifled his laugh while the man glared at him like he wants to end his life. She felt the atmosphere was a little bit relaxed all her fears are gone.

"Lady Rostone, where are you? "

Everyone including her snapped out from Miska's voice. She tried to get up but to her clumsiness, she could not stand. This is so embarrassing. She looked up at the man as he offered his hand.

"Thank you"

"So now, you are indebted to me. I'm going to collect that debt soon, my lady". The man leaned on her and whisper those words that made her blushed. "What? Really, well I'm sorry to disappoint you, how much is my debt. I'll guarantee to pay you golds." She arrogantly said.

"That's not what I want. I have tons of gold".

"Then what do you want?"

"It's for you to find out and for me to keep it".

"Huh??"

"I'm glad to see you again." He held Tyrese's right hand and gently kiss it. "We will meet again my Cael," She was too surprised by what the man said, thinking that he knows her name, she didn't even tell him her name. She only came back from her reverie when Miska.

"Milady, What are you doing in this kind of place? A noble lady should not wander especially this place was dangerous" worried written on her face. She bought knights with her. "Where are they?" she spoke out her thoughts.

"Who's who?" Miska looks at her weirdly.

Oh dang, it! She knew the Count will surely reprimand her.

"Nothing, just. I got lost"

"Milady, let's go the carriage is well ready and the Lord Rostone will probably scold us. Maybe, I should tell the Count that he shouldn't allow you to come back here."

"No, don't tell father about this incident. I will compensate with fifty silver coins just don't tell him."

"Deal! my lady"

"Honestly, you are too good to be true"

"Thank you, my lady"

"That supposed to be sarcastic you know"

"But my lady, what if you encounter the Duke of Northern Zikashiere?"

"Who's he?"

"He was the well-known tyrant in the northern Zikashiere"

"Tell me more about his Duke's tyranny"

"If I tell you.....let think milady if I can tell you the story about him," Miska leave her hanging on the story. What the-- she thinks to bribe her another silver. When they reached the Count's palace. She truly bribes her. She couldn't wait for Miska to tell the story, not even tomorrow.

Luckily, Miska accepted her bribe and she started to detail the story about the tyrant's duke. Tyrese's tears began to shed. "Milady, are you feeling bad? I think I think... I can't continue to tell you the story."

"No! You should continue it. I wanted to hear more about him," As Miska continues telling the story to her. She can't stop her tears. She felt like she has known him for a long time. She felt vulnerable upon hearing the story. He was a lone wolf. Hiding in the dark and bearing his painful past like her. That information struck her deeply and her unwavering sadness stuck in her heart until she fell asleep.

A great day with a fresh wind breeze while having a cool tea time alone in the rose garden this amazing life that even in Tyrese past life. She couldn't experience it. She forgot what happen yesterday (Does she has short gap memory? cause she always forgot everything). Nevertheless, her heart twist in pain as she tried to remember yesterday, she even asked Miska still she got no answer.

When the Count's wife suddenly approached her. The Countess was so radiant indeed, a noble-like woman.

"Are you having a great time Tyrese?"

"Yes, mother," She sat in front of her as the maidservant serves her tea. "It's been too long since we had this peaceful heart to heart talk my Tyrese, you've grown as beautiful as a nymph. Maybe after your coming of age, someone will have your hands." She was embarking to hide her tears.

She can't ignore her tears they're so precious to Tyrese. She went beside her and hugged her firmly. "Mother, does anyone wants to marry me?" She asked while ensuring her with comforting words. But why did she think that someone would marry her? Whatever it is, she will not allow herself to marry somebody who will drag down the Rostone's name.

"No, no one. I guess???"

"By the way mother, we should buy a dress for my incoming of age".

"Yes, yes I will ask my renowned tailored friend to make you a beautiful gown."

After the mother and daughter tea time, they went to a famous boutique.

"Welcome, Countess Rostone" a man with fabulous garments welcomes them. This boutique is unique she was interested to invest to start her own business.

"Breen, I'm looking for an extraordinary dress for my beautiful daughter," Her mother excitedly giggle with Breen.

"Oh! you might be the only daughter of the House of Rostone. My bad, I'm sorry for my rudeness Lady Rostone. I'm Breen Lonelash the owner of this famous boutique. I'm pleased to meet you. You're as gorgeous as the Countess," Breen was good at complimenting people. Tyrese smiled at him. He began to entertain them, there were a lot of his artworks that all then noble lady comes here to buy dresses that he made. She tried twenty ball dresses but none of them caught her interest. So, Breen took out an exquisite dress from his storeroom.

"Oh my! That's so elegant Breen you're an outstanding fashion designer," The Countess couldn't stop complimenting Breen.

"Lady Rostone, this is my limited dress design its an honor if you wear this dress at your upcoming age".

"It's my pleasure, Breen".

Her mother and Breen are still talking and as well as she let them choose jewelry for her. She was really tired from this long preparation. She was tired out and let herself rest at the lounge as she was waiting for her mother. She fell asleep in the lounge, she was jolted awake and she senses someone was watching her while sleeping though maybe it's just her mirage.

Finally, she lied down on her bed it's a long tiring day for her, that she falls asleep. The wind breeze tingling in her skin as if someone was fondling her depth. She was half awake though she can sense her surrounding. She got up from the bed and looked at the balcony as the door was opened she remembered that Miska closes the door before she leaves her room. She was impatiently going to close the door. The moment she was near the balcony, she saw a man standing beaming by the moonlight in a magnified tranquil night. The man looks at her beguiling with his silver hair that shimmers under the moon as well as his dark emerald eyes twinkling as he looks at her. She doesn't know what was gotten to her. The man walked towards her and he tenderly caresses her face.

"I'm still waiting for you,"

he whispered those words to her. She was trying to understand his words yet, he slowly shattered like the glittering dust.

Today is a lovely day to start She had to have a great meal with her three pretty brothers that her dream last night was forgotten.

But she felt sad about her dream.

"Tyrese, Do you like the meal?". Her mother asked her whilst having an apprehensive face.

" The meal was a delicious mother."

"Then, why are you sad?"

She guessed the visibility of sadness shown on her face. “So, what’s is wrong with my Tyrese” this time her father asked.

She smiled at them as if nothing happened meanwhile her second brother Callister started to laugh. Callister was a playful brother, he was also known as the lady magnet in the kingdom. Poor ladies!! Every maiden in town cried because of Callister's playfulness.

“What??? I can’t stop laughing at Tyrese look at her snots” Faking his laugh. She glared at him and her first brother Zayk smiled at her. Her brothers are bullies. This family bond was the best picture she can imagine. How lucky the original Tyrese having a precious family to treasure.

"Tyrese how was your day? Do you want me to escort you in the incoming of age?" Zayk offered, he was a gentle brother to Tyrese.

"I want to be her escort too" As Callister said while looking at her.

"Then, you can escort Tyrese," The Countess said in a cheerful voice. "How about you, Jacque? Do you want to escort your sister?"

"Sure," That's Jacques her third brother, although he's a man of few words, he is a popular apprentice of the great mage Randell.

Their meal smoothly ended with a smile on her face.

She spent time reading in her room after she read the book that the Count gifted on her thirteenth birthday. She went to the library to look for another book. She strolled around the library but she couldn't find a good book to read. Meanwhile, She leaned in the last shelf that was full of cobwebs. She didn't notice the shelf unlocked, and to found a small room. The room was too dark and grubby this seems a secret haven of her ancestors. The light coming from the library made her easy to see. Luckily she found a lamp and matches, she took one match and rubbed the tip of it inside of the box to set alight in the lamp. The whole tiny room shone by the lamp that covers with dust. The room was unbothered because no one ever visited maybe since the owner of this room is gone. She explored inside the room to find out what's in there. She saw the book above an old table with a painting hanged on the wall.

She opened the dusty antiquated book, the book was written in ancient goddess language. She read the first page of the book. The first page written in the book says that...

"Whoever holds this book must find the daughter of the goddess of nymphs."

She was entertained by the book that she even forgot the time she spends inside the secret room. Wanting to continue reading it, she took the book with her. She resumes reading the book unexpectedly, that a symbol of the goddess of nymph glows and hovered. The insignia eventually tattooed on her right hand. She tried to erase it by rubbing her skin but then she failed, the symbol was part of her body now. Everything was agile and the last thing she heard was the voices of her brothers before her vision darkened.
