How much do you hate this world? How often do you wish to disappear or end it all? The hypocrites, the mindless work, the pain of betrayal, the broken family.
"Ahaha... if there is someone who can survive all of that, he is truly the person with the strongest mentality," I said while looking at the city view from the top of a tall building.
I'm tired... everything seems so annoying now. sometimes I wonder what's the point of me understanding people all this time.. they say if I can understand others then others can understand me too..ahaha what nonsense.
I'm sick of everyone, the words I understand you really sound like a curse to me. They say I'm too much, they say I'm too negative. ahaha..so funny..blaming myself for something you don't even understand..die..die..die...
*whoosh....
Even the breeze tonight seems to be laughing at me. Ah... I hate this.
''This world really sucks'' I muttered while standing between the fences.
Seriously, don't you dare judge me and say I'm weak. I've tried okay? I've tried my best and this is my limit.
''goodbye trash world''
I closed my eyes and threw myself into the city sky. A strong gust of wind immediately hit my long hair as I fell.
Ahahaha, thoughts of my trashy life are starting to flood my mind. Annoying...annoying...
Ah... I..really will leave this world now... I don't know why there's a strange feeling that enveloped me, making my tears just come out. Even though there's nothing I should cry about... there shouldn't be anything...
*SRING
***
I thought my story was over...I thought once I fell off the building it was all over but...
"What the heck is this?" I said while staring at the menu screen in front of me.
Is this one of the gods' ways to send me to the afterlife? Even the gods are using sophisticated methods these days?
(welcome, let me introduce myself, I am a system or you can call me AI)
(I'm sure you're still confused about what happened, so let me explain)
(you are dead and now you will be reincarnated in a story called ''golden rose'', a story that_)
"HOLD ON!" I interrupted quickly.
''What the hell is reincarnation. Is this a manga or a manhwa huh!?..don't joke around. And besides, aren't those who are summoned to isekai usually the ones who get hit by a truck!?..since when does isekai also accept people who commit suicide!?'' I exclaimed
''Listen. I ended my life because I was tired of this life. I just wanted peace. And you gave me a second chance!? What kind of joke is this!?''
"I refuse! I just want to die in peace. Don't give me a second life. It will probably be the same. I will still suffer, I already know this. Isn't this a really cliché plot? Reincarnated as a villain or a supporting character, then struggling to stay alive because it might get a bad ending. I don't want to do all that." I rambled at length
(Don't worry master, you won't be an antagonist or a supporting character. In fact, I offer you a much better life)
(You will be the protagonist here. Loved by many people and you can get anything you want. The world seems to revolve only for you. Isn't that an extraordinary offer? Like heaven)
..heaven he said.. I will not fall for those honey-sweet words. All I want is a peaceful death. There is no peaceful world. There will be no such thing
What was the title of the book he said earlier? I've never heard of it, "golden rose." Is there really a story about it?
(So how? Are you willing to accept this new destiny?)
''do I have a choice or not?''
(ahaha..unfortunately there is no such option)
"Then don't ask again."
Well..if he says life seems to revolve only around me maybe this will really be a better life right?. I hope so.because if not.I will end this story early
(Then get ready..you will be reincarnated as the daughter of Marquess Florin, a daughter who is very much loved by her family and the people you will meet in the future..of course..it depends on how you behave later)
!?!..wait what did he say?
''OI!..what did you just say!, wait a minute!..oi!'' I shouted but the damn system didn't hear me.
As soon as I opened my eyes I found myself waking up in a luxurious looking baby bed, the decorations and toys around me looked like they were worth millions.
...baby?..am I starting this life as a baby??
welcome to the world of golden roses.
Name: Rosalia aiska florin
Age: 1 year
third child of the marquess florin
strength: (not yet known)
mana level: 50
(if you have any questions, don't hesitate to ask for help)
Uwah.. look at this I really feel like I've entered a game world. Do I have magical abilities in this world? It says it's not yet known. If so, there's a chance I'll be able to use magic.
(that's right, usually 5 year old children will awaken their powers at that time)
Then I just need to wait another 4 years to find out what my magic is
(exactly *plok..*plok..*PLok)
So what does a mana level of 50 mean? Does it make sense for a one-year-old baby to have such a high mana level?
(because you are the protagonist)
So?
(... because you are the protagonist)
...so you mean because I'm the main character, my level can be cheated? The balance of this world really needs to be questioned.
(....)
So how high can adults reach at their mana level?
(normally adult men who are commoners reach level 20 in their adulthood, for knights it is around 30-40, it is not uncommon for some to reach 80-90 depending on how strong the person is. because the higher the mana level of a person, the stronger the person is)
...wow, and I, as a one-year-old baby, was already blessed with a mana level of 50. I defeated a knight. That's incredibly insane.
Who is the person with the highest mana level currently?
(I still can't tell you because of data privacy)
What the heck is that? I thought I had no limits here, but it turns out there are still one or two things I can't seem to get.
*creek..
Um?..someone coming? In the middle of the night like this?
I heard footsteps getting closer and as he got closer I could see his figure which was now clearly visible. A person in a black robe covering his face with a knife...
Eh?!!..
W_..wait what is this!?..hitman!!!!!!?
"Don't hold a grudge against me, Your Majesty," he said, pointing his knife at me.
HUH!?!
Wait..wait..wait!!.. I just opened my eyes in this second life, how can it be over in a few minutes!!..ISN'T THAT TOO UNFAIR!!
*SRAK!!
HUWAAA he slashed me!!
... um?...strange?..I heard a slashing sound but it didn't hurt at all?
I slowly opened my eyes to see what had just happened. Black hair blended with the moonlight and bright purple eyes reflected the red color of blood splattered within them...
Who is this handsome boy?
*thud!
HIK!..was he the one who just slashed the killer?..yeah..although thanks to him I was saved..
"Huft...who would have thought that a mouse would sneak into my little sister's room?" said the child while wiping the blood from his cheek.
Little sister?..is that me?..then..he is..my older brother?
(exactly right!...)
Name: Blaze Raze Florin
Age: 7 years
second son of the marquess florin
power: fire
mana level: 55
!?!..blaze.. 7 years plus what level is it already 55!?..crazy!.I thought in this world I was the only one who was given that cheat level at an early age. It turns out my older brother is the same!?
''um?..this is weird'' said blaze while glancing at me
Eh?..strange?..what's strange??
''Shouldn't you be crying now? Why aren't you crying?'' asked Blaze while poking my cheek.
"Aren't you afraid? I just killed someone," he said.
Ah..is that it..if I were a real baby I would be crying right now. no. Should I cry?
*CRACK!..
''What's going on here!?'' exclaimed someone who had just entered. He had longer black hair and purple eyes that were just as beautiful as Blaze's, but you could say he looked calmer and taller than Blaze.
Is it possible that he is my eldest brother?
(exactly!. You have met both of your brothers in this life. Congratulations!!)
Name: Vered Aster Florin
Age: 15 years
first son of the marquess florin
power: earth
mana level: 15.
''!?!.. BLAZE!. What's going on here!?..plus that corpse''
''Ah.. Brother Ver..'' ''As you can see, there was a rat that tried to hurt this boy. Luckily, I came just in time.. so I could kill it,'' said Blaze while looking at the corpse next to him.
''...huft..who would have thought they were even targeting Lia too..'' said Kak Ver while approaching me and carrying me
''You must be scared, right? Yoshi..Yoshi..Everything will be fine..Don't be afraid, my little sister,'' said Vered while patting my back gently.
''Regarding that, she didn't even cry at all. Isn't that strange? Shouldn't a baby her age cry when they see this?'' said Blaze.
''eh?..ah.. that's right..'' said Vered while looking at me
''Aren't you scared?'' he asked.
.... If I said I wasn't afraid, I'd be lying. After all, that was a gamble between life and death in my second life...
''Well.. the important thing is that Lia is okay. Then, immediately clean up this mess. Blaze too'' ''Go and clean yourself, you're covered in blood. That's not good for Lia,'' said vered
"Huh? But she doesn't look scared of me either," replied Blaze while staring at me intently.
"Don't be like that. Lia is still very small, she will definitely be shocked and you don't want her to be scared when she sees you, right?" said Kak Ver, which made her flinch.
"HMPH!.. if this is why she's afraid of me. It means she's too weak," Blaze replied, but still intended to leave, but before that, he turned to us.
''Tonight she better not sleep here alone'' said Blaze before leaving the room.
...um? Did he just worry about me?. Even though he speaks a bit harshly, he doesn't seem like a bad brother.
"Hmph..of course," said Kak Ver while looking at me gently.
"Tonight Lia will sleep with me, okay?" he continued with a gentle smile.
....eh? .....EH!!!....
***
.....in the end I actually slept with him.
Who would have thought that in this second life I would sleep with a man this quickly. Even though in my previous life I couldn't even hold hands with any man.
...but this world is really like the isekai I always read in novels..the visuals are really good.
Curly eyelashes, slightly pink lips, quite long hair.. damn. He's a man, right? How can he be this beautiful?
Sigh...let's put that aside for now. So much has happened so suddenly that my brain still can't process it all.
First of all I should have died, because I fell from that building. Then there was a light that said I would be reincarnated in a story called the golden rose.
The problem is... I don't know the story of the golden rose!!
No, I've never even heard of a story like that before. Isn't that a famous story? AGH! Seriously. Usually, the people who are summoned are those who know the storyline of the world they enter. But I don't know anything and have never even heard of that story. Plus, I'm the main character in the book. This is really a joke that's not funny.
But on the other hand... I can be grateful for having this system called AI. I think it will help me in the future.
''AI..'' I called
(yes master)
*I don't know anything about this world or even the story of the world I'm in. That's why I need clear information*
(then do you want to read the story of the "golden rose?")
*Yes*
(okay..then..request processed)
Let's see what kind of world this is and the flow in it.
(Golden rose)
A fantasy romance story, like most romance stories, tells the story of Rosalia, a girl everyone loves. Her story begins when she enters the academy, where she meets many other male leads who will fall in love with her and compete for her affection.
Even the prince was made to fall in love with her. Even though Rosalia was the child of a commoner__
*wait..wait..wait!!!*
(master you haven't even read it all)
*before that! what do you mean commoner!?. It's clearly written in my status that I'm the daughter of a marquess. Why did I suddenly become a commoner!?*
(that's why you have to read it until the end..)
???..what does that mean. What happened.. how could I, a marquess's daughter, suddenly become a commoner?
I continued reading the story to find the answer and the results were truly surprising.
Even though it is written in a captivating style like a romance novel in general, what happens before the main story begins is truly tragic.
The marquess florin family will be destroyed in the next 4 years. Which means exactly when I am 5 years old. An attack or what could be called an eradication by members of the Kingdom will occur. The current king will issue an order to execute all members of my family in the future. The reason is because my family is an agent of a hitman. Even though we work for this Kingdom, the king who is afraid of my family finally decided to get rid of it. In addition, the florin family apparently has begun to distance themselves from members of the Royal family since the disappearance of the marchioness, therefore the king who does not want to take any risks decided to eliminate this family.
Despite that, thanks to my family's help, I managed to escape and run away. Rosalia's identity was always hidden, so no one ever knew the Marquess had a daughter. That's why Rosalia's origins remain unknown.
In short, after Rosalia ran away, she was found by a couple from the common people who only had a small bakery on the main road and adopted her as their daughter. Because Rosalia was still young and the shock she experienced, she suffered from amnesia and didn't even remember her own family and that's where the story begins. Where the main female character is a pure and innocent girl from the common people like most fantasy romance stories.
But what makes me speechless is the end of this story... even though it is written as a happy ending, in fact there is a tragedy before that happens, namely regarding the antagonist in this story, namely
Blaze raze florin.My second brother himself is the antagonist in this story.
Blaze managed to survive the massacre tragedy and because of what the Kingdom did he decided to take revenge but ironically his sister, Rosalia, who he thought was dead, turned out to be the fiancée of the Kingdom's prince. And in the end, Blaze had to die at the hands of his sister's fiancé, even Rosalia, who was his sister until her last breath, still didn't recognize him and even chose to live with the man who had slaughtered her family!!!
***
*WHAT THE FUCK IS THIS DUMP STORY!!*
In the end, I will end up side by side with the killer of my family!?. I'M CRAZY, RIGHT!
Even though Rosalia has lost all memories of her real family, she's still together with the person who caused her to lose her family. That's truly insane!!!
In addition, Brother Blaze, who had been fighting to avenge himself, instead accepted the reality of his sister... his only surviving family member was side by side with the man who slaughtered his family.
No matter how you think about it, the pain must be unbearable.
*OI! AI!. What is the meaning of this story!. You said that in this world I am the protagonist. And again you said that the world seems to revolve around me, but what does this mean!?!. Why is there a tragedy like this!?*
(Am I wrong? Won't you really be loved? In the academy you will be like their Light of Hope, you will even have a family that loves you even though they are your adoptive parents, you will also be loved by many handsome men. Isn't that the perfect protagonist life?)
*perfect...you say this is perfect?*
(I said this is the perfect life for you, even though you have to sacrifice your biological family to erase your origins of being born into a criminal family, but look at the bright side, you will get a much better replacement and even a much better life)
!?!....do I have to sacrifice them for a future like that?
"Um... huh? Lia? Are you awake?" said vered while rubbing his eyes.
"What's wrong? Can't you sleep?" he continued while rubbing my back.
"Let's go back to sleep, Lia... the night is still long," he said while holding me and rocking me while accompanying me with a lullaby.
.... Brother Ver.. warm... this person's hand is really warm. Even though we just met and to me you are still no different from a stranger.. but.. this kind of warmth.. is the first I have experienced both in my previous life and this life. You are the first person who is so warm to me like this..
.... Letting you die in the future for my happiness..is that the right thing?..
***
I still can't imagine it... I just reincarnated into this world but... who would have thought that the time I have with my biological family is only 4 years left... even though I was told that I would live happily with my new family but...
''Aaaa.. open your mouth Lia.. delicious food is about to go in..'' said vered who was trying to feed me baby porridge
....ah.. this is really childish.
Even though in the end I still opened my mouth and let him feed me
Brother Vered is truly a very good brother. He has even taken care of me since I came into this world like a nanny.
The waiters around us were looking at us with disgusted looks.
''Young Master Vered seems to really love Miss Rosalia'' ''Of course. Did you see him taking care of Miss Rosalia with such love'' ''Ahaha anyone who sees this will definitely not believe that he is a member of the Florin family'' "Shh..what are you talking about. Be careful with your words" ''Ah! Sorry"
...well.. I can understand what they're talking about. According to the story, Florin is a family of assassins, but their eldest son is a very friendly and warm person like this, very far from the image of an assassin family.
''..does Lia also think so..'' muttered vered softly
Hmm?
''Am I not suitable to bear the name Florin?'' he said, looking gloomy.
!?!..
Wait, don't ask me. We just met, and I don't know you or this family very well. Even if you ask me for my opinion now, I won't be able to answer anything.
!!?..why..why are you putting on a sad face like that..
Unconsciously my hand automatically tried to rub his cheek until
''WHAT ARE YOU DOING HERE!. ARE YOU SO FREE THAT YOU'RE GOSSIPING HERE!'' exclaimed Blaze
''HIK!.. FORGIVE US'' said the waiters who immediately ran away
''blaze..''
"Tch... those servants. If they're too busy, I'll increase their workload later so they won't have time to talk about other people," said Blaze as he approached us.
Brother Blaze... the antagonist in this story who is also my brother. In terms of his personality and name, it actually suits him very well.
(blaze means fire, while raze means to destroy something completely)
''ahaha..thank you blaze'' said vered with a gentle smile
''Why are you thanking me? I didn't do anything,'' Blaze replied.
''ahaha..not really..''
''Besides that... you're eating so messily. You're really bad, aren't you?'' said Blaze while pointing at me.
Huh!?..
''Blaze..Lia is still small. It's normal if her food is a bit messy,'' replied vered.
''But she's a woman, she should eat more gracefully. Otherwise, she'll look like a pig,'' said Blaze while looking down at me.
Ugh!..this little bastard!.did he just call me a pig!?.even though you are handsome and my brother I will not forgive you!!.
"Blaze, don't talk like that," said vered while rubbing my cheek.
''By the way, why are you here, Blaze? Is your sword training finished?'' asked vered.
''Yes..'' ''I came just to see the condition of this little one. Who would have thought I would see him in this pig-like condition'' *smirk
You have a problem with me huh!?
''au!..'' (F*ck U)
Without realizing it, I raised my middle finger at him and it suddenly surprised me and them both.
...Damn!...without realizing it I actually did it
''???..what is that?'' asked Blaze
''Is that some kind of love token from Lia for Blaze?'' asked vered
Huh?
''huh?..sign of love?''
a..ahaha..it seems like no one in this world knows the meaning of the middle finger..thank goodness...
''Hmph!..I don't need a sign of love from you'' said Blaze while turning his face away but his ears were quite red.
"...you weird baby," he said while giving me the middle finger which clearly annoyed me.
HAH!?!...ugh. This kid is starting a fight..
"Lia..Lia..Is there something for me too?..a sign of love?" asked vered while smiling at me.
Huh?..
"I also want a token of love from Lia," continued vered.
h...stop..bro ver..I don't want to give you the middle finger! Especially since you are very nice to me!..
"What...can't you do it?" he said with a pleading look.
AAAGH!!!
***
''yeay!..I also got a sign of love from Lia'' said vered happily
*ah..I really feel guilty towards Kak Ver now*(in the end I gave Vered the middle finger because I couldn't stand to see her pitiful gaze)
I am the only one who knows that the f*ck finger is not a sign like that, but it makes me feel guilty for giving it to Sis Ver.
And it turns out the situation actually got worse after that.
''Miss, can I also get that love token?'' ''Miss, can I also?'' ''Miss'' ''Miss
...AAAGH!. WHY DOES EVERYONE SUDDENLY WANT ME TO GIVE THEM THE MIDDLE FINGER!!!!!
(In the end, the rumor about Miss Rosalia giving the middle finger as a sign of love spread quickly in the marquess's residence)
***
Two weeks have passed since the incident and now
*finally I can walk!!*
(congratulations on your progress master)
Ahahaha..finally..even though it's quite slow because Rosalia's body is weaker than most children, but finally I can walk like a normal child.
"Lia... come here..." said Vered who had been waiting for me with open arms.
"Vel..." I said while trying to step closer to him and as soon as I got closer he immediately hugged me and carried me.
''kyaaa..lia walked towards me and called me. So cute,'' said vered while rubbing his cheek on my face.
Ehehe..two weeks after my arrival, the system demanded that I develop quickly, even though I wanted to relax considering I was only one year old, it seemed the system wouldn't let me relax for that long.
Thanks to that, I managed to walk and say a few words, even though I should be able to talk normally, but my body is still growing, it takes time for me to adjust to the real age of this body.
Then during that time I also started observing this world, especially Vered.
I spend most of my time with him. he's also the one who helped me learn to walk and so on. In other words, he's truly my best nanny.
In this strange world, so far only Vered is the one I can trust so far..
''Tch... why does he always stick to you. Even though I'm also his older brother,'' said Blaze.
"Ara.. are you jealous of me, Blaze?" asked Vered while carrying me.
''Huh!?..how is that possible!. Why should I be jealous of you just because that kid likes you more?'' said Blaze while looking away.
Uwah... look at this kid... so far I can't tell if I can completely trust Blaze. After all, he's the antagonist in this world. However, he's also my brother, and his reasons for becoming a villain are also acceptable. But...
"Ahaha, don't talk like that, Blaze. Honestly, you also want to be close to Lia, right?" said vered.
''I told you it wasn't like that!''
Honestly, Blaze isn't a really bad older brother. He may be rough, but he also cares deeply for me. He's saved me several times, including the attempted murder that day, the time I almost fell off the bed, or the time a dangerous object almost hurt me. He's always there to protect me. In other words, he's like my knight in shining armor. Even though he always teases me when he has free time.
''Put that aside. I heard dad will be home soon. Shouldn't we be getting ready to welcome him home?'' said Blaze.
Father?
''um?..ahaha again where did you hear that rumor from?. You already know that yourself, right?. Dad won't be coming home anytime soon. Dad_''
"I know," Blaze cut in.
''Dad is still looking for mom, right? I know that.'' he continued.
''Forget what I just said. I'm going now,'' Blaze said, then turned around and left us.
''blaze..''
.... Is it your father? I just found out a few days ago. The marquess is currently absent from this residence. According to AI, my father is currently searching for our mother, who suddenly disappeared. The case of my mother's disappearance is also not explained in detail in the book. I only know that she disappeared shortly after giving birth to me and our father is currently wandering to find her. And all of the marquess's obligations are currently given to Vered.
*it does sound cruel to entrust the duties of head of the family to a 15 year old child but it also proves that my father really loves my mother* I thought to myself while glancing at Brother Ver
According to the story, our father was supposed to return a year before the destruction of this family. He would bring news that our mother had died. The cause of her death was unknown until the end. Father only returned with mother's rusted wedding ring.
Sigh... this family is truly filled with tragedy, no wonder the author wants to exterminate them to create a better environment for the protagonist's growth. But still... this is too cruel...
''um?.lia are you sleepy?. Should we go back to the room and sleep?'' asked vered
''um'' I nodded in agreement
There's still a lot I don't know about this family... I also can't decide if they're really worth getting rid of. After all, they're just supporting characters...
*....just a supporting role..* *greb...
No.. don't sympathize too much. Just love them enough.. besides.. I know one fact in this world... no one really loves me sincerely.
***
A surprising fact I learned 5 days after I came to this world.
*love cheat?* *what is that?*
(in other words this is your passive skill that will make everyone love you)
!!!? * WHAT THE FUCK IS THAT SKILL!!*
(um?..what's wrong master? Do you not like this skill?)
*how can i like it. This skill..is a curse for me*
I know that. After all, I have experienced something similar in my previous life. People who said "I like you" "We will be together forever" "Aren't we friends? I promise to be with you forever" . A sweet word that is like an oasis in the desert.
I used to feel that I was really lucky to get love like that, hearing those words was like sweet honey in my ears but... I forgot.. it was a virtual world.. a fake world where everyone was wearing a mask.
The love I thought was reality was actually a mirage.
A simple analogy: when you see an oasis in the desert, you feel so grateful and run towards it, feeling like your life has been saved by it, but in reality, it's just an illusion you've created. No matter how much water you drink there, you're not really drinking it. That's the reality.
And now... this world has given me this kind of cheat. Just when I thought I could find true love, or at least be truly loved, it turns out it was all because of this skill...
*it's all just a lie*
Once again, I'll be trapped in fake love. I hate him... it would be better if he just truly hated me without having to pretend to like me...
Ugh... *I want to deactivate this skill* I said
(it's a shame this isn't a skill that can be deactivated just like that. besides, this is an important key as a heroine)
Ah.. is that so...
I should have known.. the protagonist is a figure loved by everyone, a pure and innocent figure, no matter what mistakes he makes, he will always find justification and happiness. That's what makes the protagonist such a strong figure. But... living in a lie like that.. I can't accept it... I don't want to accept it
***
Brother Vered is a good person. He's always taken care of me all this time, but if it's all just because of that love cheat skill... I can't accept it.
Even though I want to believe you, sis... but this world doesn't let that happen... what a shame
*cup
Um?..
"Have a good rest, my little sister," said Kak Vered after laying me down on the bed until I fell asleep.
....really loved...
***
Vered
... ''hmph she's sleeping so cutely..'' I said while putting a blanket on her
Even now, I still can't believe that a daughter as cute as this will be born into the Florin family.
Since childhood, there is a bitter reality that I have to accept about this family. The fact that this family is a family of criminals. What I mean by criminals here is that we are the ones who handle the work behind the scenes. On the king's orders, we will kill anyone the king wants. Even though I know my family is like that, the kindness and affection given by my parents sometimes makes me forget the identity of this family. I grew up with a soft nature that the Florin family should not have. Even so, my parents never had a problem with it, even my mother said
''You don't need to hide your desires, Ver, live according to what you want''
Words so sweet that they make me not want to dirty my hands just because I'm from the Florin family.
But because of that naive thinking, I also became looked down upon by the servants.
''Young master is very friendly, isn't he?'' ''Yes... he is so friendly that I can't imagine he is the son of that Florin family.''
They don't respect me. While the rumors aren't necessarily bad, they make me feel like I don't deserve to be part of the Florin family.
A few years later, my eldest sibling was born. She was gifted with extraordinary powers. Unlike me, she was incredibly talented. Her cold and firm nature also reflected the name Florin.
If even my little brother can be like that, I think it would be very embarrassing for me as his older brother to have this kind of character, but...
''Why? vered, just stay like this. If everyone is cold-hearted, this residence will definitely feel numb,'' said Blaze.
''you is refreshing here. If you were as cold as ice too. I would have run away from here ahahaha''
Words like that are an encouragement to me, and I hope it's okay if I stay like this...
And I don't think Blaze is the only one who thinks that because...
"Little sister," I said as soon as I saw that my second sister had been born safely into this world.
''yeah....isn't he cute?''
"Yes!... she's very cute and her hair is white like her mother's. She's so beautiful..." I said while stroking my second sister's cheek.
Even in this family full of darkness, a little angel like her could be born here.
Very small and soft... unlike blaze she looks more fragile. is it because she is a girl?
''does ver like it?''
''Of course. I'm very happy to have such a cute little sister,'' I replied with a happy smile.
"I see...thank goodness...if that's the case, I want to ask Ver for help," said my mother while gently stroking my head.
"Please take care of this child, just like you took care of Blaze. Ver is a kind and warm child. This child definitely needs an older sibling like that. Can Ver do it?"
''of course!. I will take good care of it!.
''Lia.. Big Brother will definitely protect you and make you the happiest princess in this Kingdom ehehe''
''... thank you ver.. mother is relieved to hear that''
***
''ummm...vel...mm..'' said Lia who seemed to be talking in her sleep
Um?..did he dream about me?..kyaa so cute..'' You really are my very sweet little sister Lia.. I promise I will protect you. whatever happens'' I said while rubbing his chubby cheeks

(2 months passed.)
It's surprising how quickly I've adapted to this place... a lot has happened, but most importantly, I'm starting to talk!
Even though it's not smooth, at least it's better than before. Well... even I don't talk much unless it's with Kak Ver.
Even the waiters were starting to think I only wanted to talk to Kak Ver. And this was probably why my relationship with Kak Blaze wasn't quite harmonious.
''!?!..hmph!''
???.. did he just look away when he saw me?... seems like that kid really has a problem with me
Well.. although I can say this is quite interesting.
The system said I have a love cheat skill that makes everyone love me, but seeing Blaze who seems to be openly avoiding me somehow makes me relieved.
It's better like this... than you liking me for no clear reason...
''Lia... I'm coming... um? Was Blaze here earlier?'' asked vered.
''um'' I nodded
"Where did he go? Didn't he play with you?" asked vered while carrying me.
''Nyo..gon...'' I said
"hmm... lately it seems like Blaze has been trying to avoid you. What's going on? Even though before, he was always the one who wanted to know about you the most."
Him?.. why?.. is it maybe because of the skill effect?.. did he realize the skill that's why he ran away from me?.. but that's good.. this way he doesn't have to like me just because of this annoying skill.
''Besides that, what do you want to play today, Lia?'' asked Kak Ver.
''umm...ou..'' I said while pointing outside
"Um? Do you want to go out today?" asked Kak Ver, to which I nodded in return.
''Then let's go out. But before that. Let's wear warmer clothes first. It started snowing recently. I'll be cold if I don't wear thick clothes,'' said Kak Ver then started to tidy me up with thicker clothes.
He really cares about me a lot..

A stretch of cold white snow, a view covered in snow as far as the eye can see
''Wow..''
In my country it never snowed because it is in the tropical region, but in this life I can finally experience winter.
''want..''(cold) I said while sticking my hand on the pile of snow
''ahaha of course it's cold.'' laughed vered then seemed to be making something
''Lia look..'' ''Tadaa..this is a snow rabbit'' said vered while showing the snow rabbit he made.
''Wow!!''
This!..this is very similar to the snow bunny I saw in manga or anime!..this is a real snow bunny
With enthusiasm I took it and looked at it.
''cute..'' I said
''do you like it?.i will make more_''
"Young master..." interrupted a servant
Sebastian?
Sebastian!?... the legendary name of every butler of a noble family in manga!?. who would have thought that in this world he also uses that name!.
"What's wrong?" asked vered.
"Sorry to disturb your time, young master, but there's something you have to take care of," said Sebastian while whispering something to his older brother.
''I understand''
"Lia. Sorry, I have something I have to do first. Lia, let's go inside first. We'll play again later," said Vered. I replied with a shake of my head.
''lia..wa hele.''(lia wants to be here.)
"Huh? But it's cold here. Lia will get sick."
''nyo..atel wen col..lia com in''(no, later when it's cold lia come in)
''mm.. okay. Brother will be back soon. Don't play too far, okay?" said Vered while rubbing my head and leaving in agreement
Yosh!.. I'm alone now. What should I do?...
Um?..!?!... isn't that
''abit!'' (rabbit!) I exclaimed as soon as I saw a chubby white rabbit with red eyes.
Woah!!.so cute oh my gosh!.
*and he looks so much like the snow bunny made by bigbro Vered* I thought to myself while looking at the snow bunny in my hand.
Her fur also looks very fluffy like a snowball. I want to touch it...
Slowly I tried to approach the rabbit but he ran away.
''ah!..wai!''(wait!)
Maybe it was because of the childlike nature I had in my body, my body chased after it. The rabbit ended up in the woods behind the house.
But as the snow got thicker, it became increasingly difficult for me, who was only 1 and a half years old, to keep chasing him.
Ugh...I lost it.. what's worse
...I think I'm lost..
Did I run that far?..calm down.there's no way I could run that far.if I follow my previous footsteps I can definitely come back_
!?!.. before I had time to decide to follow my footsteps before suddenly a group of white rabbits appeared behind me which made me flinch
Many...
And one thing that scares me is...
I'm surrounded
Not just one or two but it seemed like there were dozens of snow bunnies and the worst thing was... for some reason they were looking at me like their meal. which reminded me of an anime movie... about killer bunnies.
*h-how is that possible?..this rabbit too..*
(too bad it seems your guess is right master.) (these rabbits are killer rabbits..they seem hungry..it seems they see you as a delicious meal)
!?! You must be kidding!!
*SRAK!..
Suddenly a rabbit jumped towards me, luckily I managed to dodge it but my cheek was scratched because of its actions.
!?!...
*cit..cit...
*o..oi..AI... can I die here?. in a situation like this.. what is the percentage chance of me surviving?*
(mmm..let's see..since you are the protagonist you shouldn't die here, but...there could also be a bug that causes the main character to die so there is a possibility that your position will be replaced by someone else if you die)
!!!!...then I can't die here!
No..don't worry..they won't attack straight away..I can't run either..I'll definitely lose speed and the snow will definitely hinder my running especially since I'm only one year old...there's no way I can survive if I make a sudden movement...
Animals survive by instinct..if they feel a more terrifying aura they will run away on their own.but in their eyes I am nothing more than weak food..I have to do something...think...think...
*cit..*cit..
As the rabbits began to approach me very cautiously I knew I didn't have much time left.
Ugh..I'm the protagonist here..this is also still in my home area...I'll bet on the cheat advantage that the protagonist has!
"KYAAAAA!!" I shouted, which immediately made the rabbits run and attack me.
May the goddess of luck be with me!
*CRAK.... *SRAAAK!!
The sound of slash after slash was so clear. The red color of the rabbits' blood rain stained the white snow, and once again, the black hair and purple eyes that reflected death captivated me again...
*thud...
Ah...ahahaha... I really like the luck that this protagonist has...
''baze...'' I called when I saw once again my second brother came and saved me
''um?..what are you doing here? And again with the killer rabbits!?!..oi..are you okay?''asked Blaze who saw me sitting on the snow
''um!?..you're hurt..'' he said while stroking my cheek which was scratched earlier
"Does it hurt?" he asked, to which I nodded in response.
"Huft..you..don't you know that even animals and plants here can kill you? That's why you're so stupid," said Blaze while cleaning the blood on my cheek with his handkerchief.
"And how did you get here?" he asked angrily.
... ''abbit''(rabbit) I said while showing the snow rabbit that sis Ver made
... are you chasing killer rabbits because you think they look alike?'' he asked, to which I replied with a nod and obviously that made Blaze immediately shake his head.
"You're such an idiot," he said as he picked me up and took me back.
(Thank goodness, Master..it was very dangerous. But thank goodness you're okay. You really trust Blaze. So you know he will_)
*you are wrong*
(eh?)
*I bet not on blaze..but on my role as the protagonist*
(???...ah..because the protagonist always survives that's why you bet on it?)
*that's not wrong either, but it's not entirely right.*
(???)
*more precisely, I bet on this body.* *Didn't you say it yourself earlier? If I die, someone will replace me? But in that condition, not even my bones will remain, so how can that person replace me? That's why I bet on this body*
*The body is the container and the soul is the water. You can replace the water as much as you want, but if the container is broken, you can't do it. Am I wrong?*
(..... AI is impressed with master's thinking) (interest points increase by 10+)
*Point of interest? What is it? Is it useful?*
(if you have a lot of attraction points, it might be very useful if you need the help of the gods)
*huh?..god?*
'' Lia!.."
''um? Vel..'' I called as soon as I saw Ver running towards me with a worried face while grabbing me from Blaze
"Are you okay? I was so worried when I heard your scream earlier. What happened?" asked Vered.
''she was attacked by a killer rabbit,'' Blaze replied.
''WHAT!?..'' ''Lia, are you okay? Is anyone hurt?'' asked Vered worriedly.
''No, ia god, Bze help ia, Baze stong (no,lia is good blaze help lia, blaze strong)'' I said while pointing at Blaze
''Is that so...thank goodness...'' ''Blaze alone? Are you hurt?'' asked Vered
"I'm fine. Lia's cheek was scratched earlier, it's best to treat it immediately. I'm going to take a shower," said Blaze and then just walked away.
''Ah..Okay..Thank you Blaze..'' ''Now Lia. Let's go in and clean yourself up. You've had a thrilling day, right?'' said vered with a gentle smile
''um'' I replied with a nod
Today really surprised me...

(meanwhile in the bathroom)
Blaze
....
''baze...''
...again she didn't cry..strange...even though before her mother disappeared the child always cried all the time. but lately. I haven't even heard her cry anymore.
she also looked very calm and never mind crying she just screamed, but the look in her eyes didn't show any real fear, instead she looked amazed.
"What's wrong with that girl...she's so weird..." I muttered while soaking in the bathtub.
... has she really been eating wrong lately? I really don't understand
''.....''
I want to see her cry one more time...
