Chapter 2

“Enoch, Sylvester, it’s training time.”

Sylvie and Enoch raise their aesthetic bodies at the words of Gaspar, who put his face into my room.

They didn’t seem to want to leave because of my worries, so I smiled and waved at the children as if it was okay.

Like this.

Only after I heard the children closing the door and leaving, I lay down on the pillow that had tears in the shape of my nose and mouth and climbed out of the cradle.

Oh, I came out.

‘Ouch!’

I almost fell on my head, but I managed to balance and land on the floor.

Moving away from the cradle, I pulled out the notebook Lulu brought yesterday from the drawer.

‘If I write in Korean, no one will recognize it.’

I haven’t learned how to write in this world yet, but fortunately, I still…

I remembered Hangul.

Grabbing the feather pen with a chubby finger, I moved my hands while enjoying the soft texture of quality parchment.

1. My name is Leonora Estrelad Hachania. The only daughter of the Hachania family. Currently, I’m three years old. Destined to die of illness at the age of 19.

‘Oh, it smudged.’

The ink splashed on my light cheeks because I put too much strength on my hands thinking about the upcoming future. I rubbed the ink that was spreading like squid ink, and then slowly continued to take notes.

2. Dad is Duke Gaspar Hachania of the Wilenin Empire, and the emperor’s right-hand man now. A character who loses his wife and daughter and confronts the emperor, the father of the original female lead.

Noel, Gaspar’s wife, was the only female admiral in the empire.

She left the voyage as soon as she gave birth to me due to the stubbornness of the empress, but was caught by pirates and unable to return home ever.

‘And it was around this time that rumors spread that Noel had a child with a man in the imperial family.’

As soon as Noel went missing, an oracle came down that said the imperial blood would flow down to one of the children of Duke Hachania’s family.

The duke’s family was only a symbol of the country’s founding, but was not related by blood to the imperial family. Besides, the imperial blood flows only to ‘one person’.

‘Then it doesn’t make sense except for Noel’s denial.’

I understood Gaspar, who eventually betrayed the imperial family.

How did it feel when he realized that his beloved wife had betrayed him when he was about to hold a funeral without her body?

Still, he endured the anger that rose with loyalty.

The decisive opportunity to turn to the other side of the emperor was the death of his daughter, an illegitimate child.

I narrowed my eyes, recalling the events of the original work that I vaguely remembered.

‘Was Aines and I suffering from the same disease?’

3. The disease Aines and I will suffer from is called Luer’s disease, named after a god (I would be offended if I were that god).

Luer’s disease was a terrifying disease in which the muscles of the whole body gradually became paralyzed and soon hardened to the heart.

It was called Luer’s disease with a desperate desire for Luela, who gave an incurable disease that could never be cured no matter how much holy water was poured.

Fortunately, elixir, the only cure for the disease, appears in the original, there was only one in the continent, and of course, it didn’t go to the extra, but to the female protagonist Aines.

4. It wasn’t the male protagonist, Tristan, or the emperor who came to get the elixir to cure Luer’s disease.

Who is the one who saves the legendary elixir that can only be reached by crossing the endless desert and the open sea day and night?

It’s my first brother, Zakari, whose face I don’t even know.

Zakari, commander of the Black Rang and the commander of the Imperial Guard, risked his life to save elixir under the order of the emperor.

My brother was destined to save elixir, so there’s nothing to worry about.

If the future goes according to the original plan, I will die without exception.

Since Zakari was the unlucky second male lead.

The male lead and second male lead are usually idiots who only know love.

Perhaps he didn’t even notice his dying sister when he saw his beloved Aines in pain, so Zakari pours the elixir he’s been able to save into Aines’s mouth.

‘He turned away from the sick Leonora because he thought about his wife every time he saw the child, but when she died, it must have been quite difficult for him to suffer from guilt over her weak disposition.’

Gaspar Hachania was such a character.

He was sincerely angry and saddened by the death of a child who imprints his wife’s betrayal every time.

‘If it were me, I wouldn’t care if I died or not…’

Although it was not accurately described in the novel, it was a fact that Leonora was an illegitimate child. Except for Leonora, the youngest daughter, all three of her older brothers resembled the duke.

‘That’s probably why the Duke of Hachania wasn’t eager to find the elixir.’

I opened my big round eyes and began to think about how to overcome this hopeless situation.

I don’t know. I couldn’t think of a proper way right now.

No matter how much I remember my past life, my body was still a child’s.

“Lady, it’s time for snacks!”

Just in time, Lulu and Lala, the nanny and maid, appeared with a tray of sweet cookies. They seem to have been named very roughly by the writer because they are servants of the extras family.

“Wa!”

Even though I welcomed them, I didn’t forget to tuck my notebook under the carpet and hide it, so I walked around and hung on Lulu’s leg.

“Noo noo noo!” (Lulu is the best)

Lulu embraced me and burst into laughter.

She started rubbing my face on my soft cheeks.

“My lady, you’re so cute today as well.”

‘Don’t drool.’

I liked Lulu, but sometimes her expression of affection was burdensome.

“Oh my, Lulu forgot about the princess’ snack time, so I brought it here.”

“Huh?”

“You’re the best, princess”.

“Noo noo esh beshst” (Lala is the best too)

Lala, who took me out of Lulu’s arms, pouted her mouth, so I hurriedly pushed my fist in front of her.

‘Oh, I was going to give a thumbs up.’

My chubby fingers like vienna sausages sometimes don’t follow my will.

“I’m sad…”

I chewed on the cookies Lala had put in my mouth and swallowed the sorrow of my insignificant body.

“Wooshy.” (Juicy)

“Oh, the chef said she’s looking for sweet things only. They told me not to give cookies and juice at the same time.”

Does that mean there’s no juice today?

Chef Lamberdi’s specialty strawberry juice…!

“Juju…Juju…?” (Juice?)

I’m sad that I’m the daughter of an extra villain-even an illegitimate and not loved-and I’m sad that it’s a time-limited life!

“Oh, I couldn’t tell the princess in advance. What should I do?”

Lala didn’t know what to do while hugging me in a panic while I was eating the cookies.

“The princess will have half of the cookies as a snack, so shall we ask for juice?”

Wise Lulu fiddles with my feet in honey-patterned socks and suggests.

I nodded in a hurry at her words.

When rumors spread that I’m an illegitimate child, employees will start turning a blind eye to me. I had to eat it when I could.

“Ouu!”

“Then you have to eat two more cookies. Can you eat more?”

“Ouu!”

I nodded my head loudly as if I were determined and gave Lulu a pinky.

“…”

‘I put it out to mean that I’m promising.’

“Nunu?” (Lulu?)

“You’re so cute…”

Lulu, who was pouring a feathery kiss on my small finger, opens the bedroom door with a big cough.

“Lady, shall we go together?”

Lulu and Lala were teaching me the structure of the mansion these days.

Lala wrapped a large blanket behind my back, perhaps thinking of looking around the mansion one more time.

“Now, the lady’s room is located in the center of the third floor of the mansion. Do you remember?”

“Yesh, my dad’s rum esh on the tup foor.” (Yes, my dad’s room is on the top floor)

“Ha, my princess is smart too.”

Lala nods with a pleased smile at my skillful answer.

“That’s right. If the princess is in danger, there is a device installed so that His Excellency can come down immediately.”

I put a bitter smile on Lala’s explanation.

Yes, Gaspar Hachania was a father who cared for Leonora enough to place the bedroom of his youngest three-year-old daughter in the center of the mansion.

‘Until yesterday, the modifier should be attached.’

It was a week ago when Noel went missing, so the trust that she gave birth to an illegitimate child would have been in Gaspar’s ear.

The emperor will call soon, fearing that rumors will spread that the blood of the imperial family has leaked.

‘Since Sylvie and Enoch are obviously dad’s sons… Of course I’m the one who will be suspected.’

There was a reason why Leonora, a member of the second male lead’s family, was rarely mentioned in the novel.

With the excuse of revealing the authenticity of the bloodline, I’ll be moved to the royal palace.

I’m going to lose.

‘It’s a separate palace, it must be like a prison.’

“Sigh.”

I already sighed at the thought of getting out of the comfortable Hachania mansion and entering the brutal imperial palace.

Lulu, who was looking down at me patting my back while holding me in her arms, opened his eyes wide.

“Lady, why are you sighing?”

“Maybe it’s something she ate…”

A miserable life. I only wanted to see the light.

The expressions on the maids’ faces became vague at my sigh.
