Episode 3

A month after I started training in magic and swordsmanship, I'm really liking this world, what I don't like is that Jazmin the viper is always bothering me and because of her my teachers were taken away and now I have no one to train me, but that doesn't matter because I have the basics, but that viper is going to pay for it.

***Memories from a week ago ***

I was walking to my room after hard training, but on my way I met the duchess and the viper

Duchess—Alessia, how is it possible that you have such bad behavior when hitting your sister—

Jazmin—Mother, please don't punish my sister, it was my fault—

Duchess—It's not your fault, my girl is Alessia, who doesn't understand what her place is in this house—she says comforting Jazmin

From where I am I can see Jazmin's crocodile tears, she is so ridiculous and predictable

Me—If you're done, I'll retire to my room—

Duchess—No, first apologize to your sister—

Jazmin—It's not necessary to apologize Sister—

Me—You see, duchess, it's not necessary for me to apologize to someone who doesn't carry my blood—

Duchess—What did you say, you little fool—

Me—The truth, duchess, or is she your biological daughter and not me—

Jazmin—I'm leaving—and runs away while crying

Duchess—Jazmin wait—goes after the viper

While I arrive at my room and sit down to rest, after a while Luna arrives with my lunch, and I start to eat, I was in the best of my lunch when someone enters my room like it was his own house and that is the so-called that I have for of course Brother Luca, how ridiculous, I imagine he comes to ask me to apologize to Jazmin

Luca—Oh, here you are enjoying yourself while my sister suffers—

Me—Your sister, it's me, you piece of idiot—oops, I shouldn't have said that, but it seems like he got more angry

Luca— you are not my sister, she is, she has grown up with us, not you —He tells me

Me—If that's the case, why did you look for me, then you should have left me there, maybe I would have another better family than you who only think about Jazmin —He stays with his eyes wide open

Luca—Understand that our affection is for Jazmin and you should accept that she tries to get along with you, but you only reject her and make her cry —

Me—Don't think that I'm going to apologize to her, better leave my room—I tell him

He slams the door as he leaves

***End of memory ***

I don't know why the rejection of that family hurts me, it must be because of the soul of the real Alessia, it must be for that.

I am in my room waiting for Luna, when she arrives she gives me some fruits and I decide to eat them

Me—Luna, have the carriage prepared, I want to go to town—

Luna—Yes, miss—

She leaves while, but when she opens the door I can see a silhouette running and that is without a doubt Jazmin, I imagine she is already thinking how to get rid of me, well, we have to fulfill the viper's wish

After a while Luna returns, but she comes with two bags, I imagine it is money that the duke sends

Luna—Miss, the duke sends you this—

Me—Thank you Luna, put it in the bag, I also want you to put some dresses for any season and put some fruits too—

Luna—Why do you ask me to enter that, miss—

Me—Luna, you know I love you very much, right—

Luna—Yes miss—

Me—You see, I have a bad feeling that something bad is going to happen to us—

Luna—Don't play with that, miss—

Me—Don't worry Luna, I'm going to protect you—

She nods and does what I have asked, after half an hour we leave to get on, the coachman looks somewhat nervous, but still he helped us get into the carriage, after a while we arrived at the town, the first thing we do is go to Ruben's store to buy more books on magic and Herbalism

Three hours pass and it's time to go to the duchy, when getting on the carriage I could notice that the coachman was very, but very nervous, what is he planning, that is something very confusing, through the window I can see that we have deviated from the main road, this will be very bad

Me—You see what I told you, Luna—

Luna—I'm scared, miss—

Me—Don't worry, Luna, everything will be fine—I tell her

While the carriage stopped walking I see through the window and we are near a very large river

Coachman—Miss, sorry for this, you have been very good to me, so I don't have the heart to do what they asked me to do—

Me—What did they ask you to do—

Coachman—Miss Jazmin asked me to kill her—

Me—Oh, it was that and what are you going to do—

Coachman—I plan to let you go, miss—

Me— I like it, well this you will do, I want you to push the carriage into the river with us inside —

Coachman—That's very risky, miss—

Me—I know, but it's the only thing we can do, do it and take a horse to the duchy and tell them that as it started to rain, the carriage lost control and we fell into the river and you couldn't save us—

Coachman—Okay miss—

Me—Well, remember that you have to arrive dirty and with blows, and after taking the money that Jazmin will give you, and resign—

Luna—Miss, what will we do—

Me—Escape from this empire, my dear Luna, don't worry about your parents, later we can ask them to go with us—

Luna—Yes miss—

The coachman pushes the carriage into the water and there we go, I'm calm while Luna is trembling, that's normal, oh how I would like to see Jazmin's face, now she must be happy with my supposed death and not to mention my dear stupid brother, that idiot must be very, very happy

I remember when he told me (I wish you hadn't come into our lives, we were happy without you) I swear that hurt me a lot, I felt like my heart was squeezing.
