Mr. Fairy Mermaid's Interstellar Time Travelogue
Chapter 4. Doomed Fate
There was trending news in the star net.
An official post was pinned in the certified blog of the imperial family, announcing the remarriage of His Majesty Emperor.
It had been more than 20 years since the former empress died. Now, the empire was about to welcome the enthronement of the next empress.
The people anticipated the great wedding of the century. For no other reason except that the next empress was a descendant of Marshal Beryl, the hero of the empire.
They just admired and loved the hero who saved the empire back then when the ferocious star beasts infiltrated the capital city, almost killing millions of people.
But this love could be easily overturned.
Because of this devotion, the empire could not and would not tolerate anyone who would tarnish the great hero's reputation.
The life of the original Yulian turned a drastic turn the moment he set foot in the capital star.
From the bright and cheerful personality, he slowly changed into a gloomy and irritable person.
Blinded by the dazzling life in the capital, driven by greed and desire for fame, he destroyed his family's trust, and exhausted their care and love.
Because of his mistakes, the people of the empire crusaded against him.
"What a disgusting person..."
"You should not have been born..."
"You're a shame. You do not deserve the Beryl name!"
When he almost caused his beloved sister to miscarriage... the original Yulian had to be responsible for his actions.
So, he was sent to exile.
Then, the spaceship that was supposed to send him to a far distant planet was attacked and bombed by the star thieves.
He died like that, with nothing left.
Yulian put his hand on his chest that had been beating so hard since he recalled those memories.

Everyone said he deserved it all.
Yulian Jade Beryl
No one had, even once, listened to his side.

There are two sides of the same coin. They never bothered trying to look at the other side.

Their truth might not be the entire truth at all.
He had lived for so long.
He had witnessed many civilizations rise and fall. He had seen the good side, their kindness, their camaraderie, and their empathy. He had also seen their hypocritical, scheming, and distorted nature.

There's more to it than the eyes can see, and the ears can hear.
These memories warned of the incoming future.
The original owner died at that time. Then, the original was given another chance of rebirth.
However, when the original owner went back in time, the original soul for some reason did not survive.
And for some reason, his soul, the one from the distant past, possessed this body.
Staring at the family photo of the imperial family on the cover page of their official blog...

Whatever reason it could be...

I won't let the future repeat itself.
Yulian Jade Beryl
That's my promise to you.
