Chapter 2: Chapter 1

A week has passed since the death of the duchess.

The day she died in her bedroom due to her weakened body after giving birth to a baby girl, and founding out that the duke has an illegitimate child made the duchess feel depressed.

I don't know what she was thinking about letting me be alive, I don't know what she was feeling, I don't know what she was facing at that time, and I don't know why she was taking care of me.

'I don't understand it at all, she was stupid, foolish, if she would just let me die, she would not die.'

... Because that was the best conclusion, so, she won't die and won't have a hard time taking care of me as if I am not the fruit of her husband's mistake.

No, the duke is not even his fault.

As the funeral was made for her, everyone in her family, my father, my half-brother and sister, and some servants is crying while I could only blankly stare at her coffin that was slowly put in the hole that they dig.

I tilt my head,  I want to ask her, why she let me live and whatnot.

'I guess, I could ask that question once I died.'

Ironically, I am factly aware of myself, I don't want to literally die.

However, what could I do?

As the funeral finally comes to an end, the eyes of many dig down to the deepest part of my abyss.

Looking somewhere of 'me', for them to consume.

'I see, was it my fault?'

That might be it.

So it is my fault.

See, duchess? You are foolish, none of them are like you.

And a part of me blamed myself.

'It is a shame that I expect too much.'

Remembering those times, I wonder, if I did not come back here to this mansion after the funeral...

At that time, no one helped me to go inside the carriage, due to how small I was and malnourish, I have no strength to carry myself and stepped on a stair that the height is almost on my shoulder.

Without the help of others or the servants, the carriage that I was supposed to use as a ride left me without the others taking care of my existence.

But in the end, I still went back barefooted.

"Sigh..."

The servant who served me when the duchess is still alive is no longer serving me, the chamberlain that always takes care of me looks at me with disdain and disgust..., none of the chefs is willing to give me food.

As for my supposed family did not care about me, the duke only look at me with an eye of disgust and hatred, but thankfully he still give me one gold a month for my allowance.

Thanks to this, I manage to survive for how many years and collected enough money that I always hid so no one could see.

One year has passed and I already have 9 gold coins, enough for a commoner to live for many years.

The treatment is the same, I am part of the Synburn, a nonexistent one.

My life as the nonexistent second daughter of a synburn continues until I reach seven years old.

This is supposed to me having my debut because it was part of the culture of this aristocracy.

Luckily for me, there is no debut of my age.

Instead of calling this an unfortunate of mine, I would call this a lucky day

No debut means no interaction, no interaction means no trouble.

I must continue to do nothing, the duke is giving me one gold coin a month, and now I have 44 gold and 59  silver coins, what I waited is me to turn 13 years old

So I must wait for a few more years before I get out of here.

The day, this present day, something happen.

While I was lying on the bed, the whole room darkened.

The dark get smaller and smaller until it stopped in my own shadow.

What comes next is something that I should be surprised by.

But I care none of it as what I see is something astonishing and a warm feeling attacked my dead heart, and for the first time, I feel like I can talk freely to someone.

The creature that appeared in my shadow, the creature with a humanoid body of a kid of my age, stared at me with its red eyes, there are red lines all over her body, it tilted its head, no, she tilted her head towards me and then touch my arm.

"Are you... Me?"

Despite its black appearance, or if someone to see her, they would scream, what I only see is someone like a twin to me.

She nodded at me and then change her form to a black blanket, protecting me from the cold that I grew numb to it, I feel no coldness because I was used to it so it was fine, but I guess to her, I am not.

"Thanks."

As if responding to my words, the blank wiggled happily.

As I was about to close my eyes, suddenly she disappeared and the blanket that is protecting me from the cold is gone...,

I tilted my head at first before I realize that someone is coming...

I look at the door and soon enough a loud bang can be heard as the door opens with a lot of force.

"You must be Young Miss Zilla Arceus Synburn."

"...yes, and who are you?"

"For correction, you must say 'Yes, I am Zilla Arceus Synburn, Second Daughter of Duke Synburn, who might you be?' For now, I must forgive you for such insolent action, My name is Malita Bronzeil, your nanny and etiquette teacher, now without further ado, please prepare yourself and go to the etiquette, I will wait there Miss, don't waste my time."

Said the person or Nanny Malita then she close the door.

"...."

I quickly take a bath and afterward wear some dress that I found in my wardrobe.

I found a pe green dress with some frills and a puffy ribbon, I don't like it when I see it but that is the only dress I have found in this wardrobe, the clothes that I was using are my repeat wear clothes that I came to like.

I guess once I'm out of here, I must buy some clothes, preferably something that follows the trend of this world, as much as I want to wear a short skirt and some trousers, I must endure it.

Once I'm done, I then walk out to the etiquette room, I don't know the room so I have no choice but to ask some servants who were willing to answer me after I finally manage to get an answer, I went to that room, encountering nanny malita with a whip in her hand

She then whipped my back legs ten times as a punishment for me getting late.

With that done, Malita stopped and started to teach us.

Yes, us, apparently, after my half-sister's debut yesterday, she then liked me and started to study how to become a proper lady.

Nanny Malita teaches us the way of a proper and well-behaved lady and what classes we must take.

"Remember, do not take swordsmanship for that is not what a proper lady should do."

"B-but Nanny, daddy said that we can choose swordsmanship if we want-"

"Miss Lilia, I must warn you that what I said is right."

So that means even the duke's word is useless to you?

"B-but..."

"No but's! Miss Lilia, your way of speaking is not a proper lady should speak, please stand there."

"W-why?"

"Are you disobeying me?"

"S-sorry..."

My sister Lilia went to the spot where Nanny Malita pointed her finger, Lilia turn her back against us and Nanny Malita started to whip her legs earning a paipainfuly from Lilia who was now trembling in pain.

"If I heard you cry, I won't stop whipping you miss Lilia!"

While Lilia was being whipped I was staring at nanny Malita who was grinning sadistically.

'Ah, she just wants to punish us...'

I look at Lilia whose face is now purple tring to endure the pain and not crying.

That was when I remember a sentence.

[She staggeringly fled the party and lean on the floor, Lilia started to cry remembering the nightmare of her childhood days, with her breathing getting faster, Samuel came to her and look at Lilia worriedly.

Samuel hugged Lilia like he was hugging a broken doll, he heard Lilia say...

"I'm sorry... Nanny, Please stop...I'm sorry.....sister...."

... I think I reincarnate to a dark romance novel that I read in my past life....

And I am the villainous cannon podder sister of the protagonist....

I look at Lilia who is the protagonist of the novel, she was crying nonstop and a snot could be seen on her nose.

I sigh and stand up myself.

While Nanny Malita continued her whipping with a sadistic smile, I immediately blocked it and covered my sister, earning a whip on my back and getting my dress get scratched.

It's fine, I don't like this dress anyway.

And I don't feel pain so it is fine.

"Sister...?"

Sigh...

The protagonist is now here as a child... What should I do?

Really...

I don't know what to do...
