Chapter 1: Announcement

"Princess, it's time to wake up!"

In a medieval style bedroom, there was a slim figure lying in a queen size bed while surrounded by palace maids.

The figure that was lying on the bed groaned. She was covered by the thick blanket of her bed so her entire body was covered.

"Princess Ayame, please wake up, it is already morning."

A different maid said this time. This maid looks mature and more experienced than the other maids that was surrounding the bed of the princess.

She was actually the head maid that was in charge of everything that regards recruitment of workers, chore organizations, and many more. And despite having the title of being the "head maid", she doesn't really look like it even for her age.

And the reason for that is all of that's within the palace is mostly consist of vampires. That's why all of them look so young and fresh is because of the vampires' slow-aging trait.

Once again, Ayame groaned under her sheets. She wanted to sleep more but it seems that the maids won't let her.

"Fine.."

Ayame said and quickly got up from her bed. The palace maids helped her in freshening up.

She showered and after that, she wore a royal blue long-sleeve dress that reached her knees and a pair of blue flats to match her dress.

Her hair was in a braid, and was accessorized by a green ribbon at the end of her braided hair.

She doesn't like wearing some heavy dresses and some high heels despite being a princess since its too troublesome when you walk while wearing them so she usually wears some casual or at least some good formal clothes.

And it's already the modern era, she adapted well despite growing up in the old days before the modern era began.

Most of the people here in her kingdom already adapted to both the style and the ways of living of the modern world.

But despite that, there is still some things that didn't change like the style and the interior of the castle. It still remain unchanged.

Anyways, she walked out from her room and she was now walking through an also medieval styled hallway, with full sets of armor on the side, serving as decoration.

There were also large paintings hanging in the walls, as it also served as decoration.

She turned left, right and so on, until she finally reached the dining area where both her parents were already seated next to each other.

"Good morning mother, father."

Ayame greeted her parents and slightly bowed her head and she sat across her parents.

"Hm, good morning honey."

Her usual stoical father, Zeine, said while smiling warmly and stared softly at his daughter.

Both she and her father has the same jet black hair but his father has stormy gray eyes.

"Good morning sweetheart"

Akira, her mother, also said with a sweet and warm tone.

Ayame had inherited her mother's emerald green eyes but her mother has light brown hair.

Both the couple and the daughter ate in a comfortable silence.

"Haaa..good morning."

A voice was suddenly heard and broke the silence between the three and they turned their heads and saw the twin brother of Ayame, Akito.

Akito has the same jet black hair as hers but he has their father's gray orbs.

Akito might be Ayame's twin but they are both complete opposites. Akito is mostly the jolly and playful type while Ayame was the cold and emotionless type.

Akito might've gotten his personality from their mother who is known for being a joyful and sweet type of person while Ayame probably got her cold character from her stoical father.

"Oh good morning dear, come, let's eat breakfast together."

Akira said with a gentle warm voice, while Zeine just nodded, agreeing with his wife.

Before sitting with the other three, he gave everyone kisses in the cheeks and then he finally sat in a chair and happily ate with the others.

All of them ate in silence, the comfortable silence in the dining area hung in the air but was broken by the sudden cough of Zeine, gaining the attention of the twins and they both looked at their parents.

"Me and your mother were thinking of moving you guys to another school."

Zeine said without beating around the bush. Both the twins, even Ayame were shock.

"But why father? Why the sudden school transfer?"

Ayame asked while furrowing her eyebrows. Her academic performances weren't that bad, in fact, she was the top of her class. She's even at the point where she doesn't even need to study because she has a very high IQ.

Her brother doesn't have low grades either. Her brother is also smart but his IQ is as not as high as hers.

All in all, both the twins have excellent academic performances and they were at the level where they can be called prodigies.

"We thought that transferring you guys to a school filled with prodigies and elites might be the perfect fit for you two."

Akira said while sipping on her cup of coffee.

Both the twins thought for a while. They both think that it would be a good idea, since it had gotten quite boring with their school so they both think that it would be a good idea for them to transfer.

Despite them being complete opposites, they still think the same things like most twins would do.

"I think it would be a great idea! It's really boring at our school so a new school would be nice."

Akito said while shoving another spoon full of bacon on his mouth.

"Yes, it is a good idea."

Ayame said shortly while nodding her head.

The couple were glad that the twins accepted their school transfer so fast but they were wondering of what will be there reaction if they say something about their new school that they will be transferring.

"And about the school, it will be filled with humans, some vampires that are disguised as humans and....werewolves."

By hearing about the word "werewolves", Akito suddenly choked when he ate a sausage and Ayame that was drinking orange juice squirted most of the liquid out of her mouth.

Both of them were coughing and their parents just stared at them with flat eyes, wondering if they're being overreacting or not.

"What?! You can't be serious!!"

Akito exclaimed while slamming his hands on the dining table.

"Akito! Watch your manners."

Akira said sternly while looking at her son with warning eyes.

Akito suddenly gulped and he sat back at his seat. Nothing could be more scarier than an angry mother.

"Why did you choose such school?"

Ayame asked in a calm voice. She is more composed and calm than her brother so she is usually calm or expressionless no matter the circumstances.

"Because the school you are entering is one of the top five schools that is known to be the best."

Zeine said calmly while reading a newspaper in his hands.

"Grimoire Academy, that's the school that you're entering."

Their father also added while still reading his newspaper and sipping a cup of coffee.

"And it's more closer than the other five schools so you guys won't be needing dorms."

This time, Akira was the one who spoke.

"But mother, you know that we don't have good relationships with the werewolves. How are we suppose to cope with this?"

Akito said and frowned. Both their kind and the werewolves aren't in good terms since they have bad history with each other.

And also, even with the calm expression that his sister has. He knows she really hates those werewolves and even if she hides her true feelings, it will not be hidden from her literal other half, her twin.

"Ahh..I know you're gonna ask me that..so I asked a witch that has been a close friend of mine that she will cast a spell on you two so you could smell like humans and no werewolf will find out that you're vampires. Well..as long as you don't show your powers, it will be fine."

Akira said to her children reassuringly.

Both the twins couldn't help but sigh in unison. It seems that they have to act "normal" just to enter some school.

Well if it's for the sake of their knowledge expansion, then they guess it would be worth it. But they worry of what will happen to them in the future, now that they're being transferred to a school that crawls with werewolves. Well..they could only hope that nothing could possibly go wrong.
