I went to the park and cried. "How could your majesty say such a cruel thing? I have to hold on for this baby, I don't want this baby to be the same fate as the one in the novel."
"Hows it? Have you read it through?" ask someone.
I looked towards the source of the sound. " Mister Lucas?!"
"It seems you've read it through. Don't call me sir, just call Lucas. I don't like the name of Mr."
"All right, Lucas."
"So you believe I'm the tower leader?"
I'm nodding.
"Next time read something more useful, stupid!" resounding.
I came back crying. Lucas saw it was a crime. "Hey hey don't cry. You're not that stupid, actually, but you're still stupid."
I was crying harder.
"L-yes, you're not stupid. Then stop crying."
"Lucas, please help me" I pleaded.
He immediately agreed. "Yes yes, I will help you but stop crying."
"really?! You're gonna help me?"
He's nodding. I stopped my crying and hugged her. "Thank you, Lucas"
Lucas who was suddenly hugged by me was surprised. "Hey le-let go!"
I let go of his embrace and chuckled.
"So what should I do?" ask Lucas.
"I don't know. Don't you know the solution?"
"Ah so this is still a problem yesterday?"
I'm nodding.
"What are those fools doing in my tower? They just eat blind paychecks."
"Interesting? Aren't you just their leader?" my many.
"I am the leader and owner of the magic tower" I replied.
"I didn't think I'd meet a great man like you" I murmured.
"It was this child who drew my attention" Lucas said, pointing at my stomach
"I hope you can be friends with this kid later" I said with a chuckle.
Lucas looked the other way. "Who would want to be friends with your son."
I'm just chuckling.
I don't think Athanasia's birthday is any minute. Everyone was nervous, especially Claude. He was getting away and away from me more and more. He should have been with me more often because we don't know when this child will be born. I'm upset with him who's been keeping away from me lately. I approached him to his study.
Arriving in front of Claude's study, the guards greeted me. "Blessings and glory upon the sun empire obelia."
I asked them. "Is the noble one inside?"
"Yes, your highness the empress" they answered.
"Please tell him I want to meet." One of them came in and conveyed my intentions. Soon he came out and told Claude that he didn't want to see anyone.
I opened the door and entered. "Hey Claude, don't you care about your son anymore?!"
Claude answered without looking at me."Since when do I care about her?"
Hearing that I clenched my hands. "So your reaction to knowing I'm pregnant was just a lie?"
"That's it" he answered.
I was crying too. "You're evil Claude!"
Claude immediately got up from his seat and walked up to me. "Stop crying there."
It turns out that he is still weak with my tears. My inner.
Claude breathed. "OK okay I'm sorry. Honestly, I've always loved this kid, but this kid's gonna take your life."
"Then listen to my explanation first!"
"What do I need to listen to? At least it was your whining that asked me to choose this child!"
"Not so Claude," I said.
"How is it?! If you keep forcing me to be like that, I'd rather just die than live in this world without you!" emphatically.
My chest hurts hearing that. I hugged him and Claude returned my arms. "Please don't force me to do that, Diana."
"Claude, I've found a solution. I can give birth to our child safely."
Claude let go of his embrace and looked me in the eye. "Solution?"
I'm nodding. "I've met the owner of the magic tower and he promised to help me."
"Lucas? Wasn't Lucas dead a few years ago? Are you sure it was him? Maybe you're hallucinating, Diana," she said.
"I also thought like that but he's really still alive. She will help me when I give birth to this child" I replied.
Claude shed tears. "really? Ja-so this kid and you can survive?"
I smile. "certain."
Claude hugged me back "I love you, Diana."
Hearing that, my feelings warmed. "I love you too, Claude."
Suddenly Felix walks into Claude's office. "Blessings and glory upon the sun empire obelia. I brought the world's greatest wizard, your majesty."
Claude let go of his embrace. "Bring him in."
The witch came in. How surprised I was to see the witch. "Lucas?!"
"Lucas?" claude and Felix said.
I'm nodding. "Yes. This is the owner of the magic tower I'm referring to, Lucas. How did you get here?"
"Suddenly this redhead pulled me in," Lucas replied, pointing at Felix.
Felix felt guilty. "I'm sorry Mr. Lucas. I was too happy to see you."
"So what's the solution you're thinking of?" ask Claude.
"Should I explain? Very inconvenient. You guys just get it sorted out later, the important thing is the child and the mother survived, right? So don't ask me much" Lucas replied.
"If you don't tell me how we know what you're doing is dangerous or not" Claude said.
I held Claude's hand. "Claude, there's no way Lucas's gonna harm me."
"You trust her too much, Diana," Claude said.
"Of course I believe him, because he's my friend" I replied.
Lucas chuckles. "Your friend? When do I consider you a friend?"
Felix pulled out his sword and pointed it at Lucas. "See your speech, sir. Even if you are the witch we are looking for but please pay attention to your courtesy to your noble consort."
"Felix, put your sword down now!" my orders.
Felix followed my orders, he immediately lowered his sword.
"It doesn't matter if you don't consider me a friend, but I will always consider you my friend" I said.
"It's up to you" Lucas replied.
"Felix, take this witch out! We don't need him!" Claude's orders.
I'm appalled. "What does that mean?! You're kidding me, right?"
"As I said, we don't need it" Claude replied.
I glanced at her words. "You crazy? He's the one who can help me."
"Diana I don't like to be denied. Now everybody out!" his orders.
After that day Claude locked himself in the office. I haven't seen Claude in a few days, he's really never been out of his office. Even for eating, he did not come out.
"Felix, what's Claude doing to never get out of his office?" my many.
"Perhaps his highness is doing a lot of work so he does not leave his office even for a moment" Felix replied.
My forehead. "Does that make sense? He won't even let me see him."
"Your Majesty must have a reason why you don't want to meet you. Maybe your majesty is cooling her mind too." Felix replied.
"Huh we should have stayed together because we don't know when this child was born. When this kid was born we didn't know if I'd be safe or not."
Felix was surprised to hear that. "What are you talking about, noble empress? Of course you'll be safe!"
"But Lucas was cast out, but he was the only hope that I could give birth to this child safely."
"Your majesty must have thought of a way, you don't worry."
"Is that so? I doubt it because at that time he drove Lucas away with emotion."
"Who was expelled?" ask someone.
I turned to the source of the voice and shouted. "Lucas?!"
Lucas immediately closed his ears as if to break. "Hey! Don't you scream. My ears are still working fine."
I hugged Lucas. "God I thought you were kicked out of the palace."
Lucas smiled arrogantly. "Diuser? No one can kick me out."
"What's the queen's majesty? Is anyone sick?" ask Felix worried.
"N-no, it looks like this baby is happy to see Lucas so he reacted" I replied.
LAD!!! Lily dropped the glass and shouted. "God your highness the empress, you bleed."
"Blood?" I looked down and sure enough it turned out that fresh blood had flowed.
Lily walked up to me and held my body back from falling. "Your Majesty what has happened?"
"Miss Lily, we'd better take her noble consort to her room" Felix suggested.
Lily nodded. Felix's holding me in a bridge style. "Pardon my impoliteness, noble consort."
Before I left, I held Lucas' hand. "Don't go, Lucas."
Lucas held my hand back. "Think of yourself being stupid!"
I just chuckled at Lucas's curse. After that Felix rushed me to my room.
My breath hunts. I try to breathe in as much oxygen as I can but never enough. It was as if there was a door blocking oxygen from getting into my lungs. So crowded, that I felt like crying. "Felix, please call your highness. I'm not strong anymore."
Felix shook his head. "Not your highness empress, you must be strong! His Majesty is on his way here. You tau? He immediately ran like an infidelity man when he heard the news of the empress's majesty."
Lily just cried and clasped my hands as though she wouldn't let me go anywhere. "Your Majesty, you must endure! You must be strong for the sake of your majesty."
"I'm not strong anymore" I said with a hunting breath.
BRAKK!!! Claude opened the door violently. He came with a messy appearance. "DIANA."
Claude walked up to me and grabbed my next hand. "Diana, what's going on? Why are you like this?"
"Your majesty, I'm sorry" I said weakly.
Claude nodded quickly. "What do you mean apologize? You're not wrong, it's me who's sorry for ignoring you lately. I promise I won't do it again, but I beg you to hang on."
I'm shaking. "Sa-I'm no longer powerful, your majesty."
"Stop talking nonsense! Felix, find the witch until we meet. Soon!" Claude's orders.
I'm shaking. "No. No need to call him."
"Diana, don't act now!"
"No, your honor. Let me go, will you?"
"No Diana! Till any time I won't let you go."
"We just met before and now you look like someone who wants to die" said someone.
"Master witch?!"
Claude walked over to Lucas and grabbed him by the shoulder. "Hey witch, please save my wife. I'll do whatever it takes for my wife to survive."
Lucas brushed Claude's hand off. "What about the baby?"
Claude was silent for a moment. "Please save the baby if possible."
Lucas raised his eyebrows. "Didn't you want that baby before?"
"I didn't want the baby, it was just that I was too worried about Diana but right now there you are so I trust them to you" Claude replied.
"Let's think like that a long time ago, this incident won't happen" Lucas replied.
Lucas approached. "Hold you fool, I'll help you."
Lily bowed before Lucas. "Master, please save your highness the empress and her baby."
"Yes, I'll try. Now everybody out!" lucas' orders.
"I'm not going out!" reject Claude.
"Your Majesty please obey. Hey redhead, take your master out!" lucas' orders to Felix.
Felix begged Claude to wait outside.
"No Felix, I have to accompany Diana" Claude said.
"Your highness, your highness the empress is in good hands. Just trust him." Finally, with all the courage, Felix forced Claude out. He was willing that after this he would be killed or something by this master but surely his noble consort was more important now.
"Lucas," called me in a very weak voice.
Lucas approached. "Don't talk much. Save your energy."
"Don't waste energy just to save me."
"Here it is, if I do not save you this kingdom will be destroyed. You don't hear, your husband yells like a man of loyalty outside."
"I'm not strong anymore, Lucas. Just save the baby."
"Then you want to just die? Didn't you say I'm your friend? You want to just leave your friend after he's comfortable with you?" tanyanya.
"Bu-not that," I replied.
"Trust me, I will definitely save you and your baby." I just nodded.
Lucas began to heal me with his powers. Shortly after that, my condition began to improve. "Thank you, Lucas. I feel better now."
"After this I will help you to give birth to your baby. You have to hold on because it feels like it's gonna hurt so much."
I'm nodding.
"Now rest first, 30 more minutes I'll be here."
I held Lucas' hand. "Where are you going?"
"I'm just gonna go for a second, there's something I need to find."
"Can't you get someone else to look for her?"
"Who can I ask? Those fools in my office? They won't be able to find it."
"Felix, ask Felix to look for him."
"The redhead won't be able to find it either. You take it easy, I'll be back soon."
"Not so, I'm just worried about you. You just used your power, it must have been exhausting."
"Hey did you forget? I'm strong."
I chuckle at hearing it. "Go back soon, Lucas."
Lucas nodded.
As Lucas exited Diana's room, Claude walked up to him. "How's Diana doing?"
"Currently her condition is more stable but she still has to rest because she is going to give birth to her baby now. Talk to your wife, don't make her emotions unstable" she replied.
Felix approached the two. "Sorry witch, where are you going?"
"I have a little business and will be back in 30 minutes" Lucas replied.
Lily who was about to enter Diana's room was immediately detained by Felix. "Give time for the noble and noble empress to speak."
Lily nodded.
Claude went into Diana's room. "Diana."
"Claude?"
"How are you doing? Is anyone sick?" claude asked while giving the healing magic.
He knew that this was useless but at least he wanted to help ease his wife's pain.
"I'm fine, Claude."
"really?"
"certain. I never lied to you, did I?"
"Yes." Yeah."
"Oh yes Claude, do you want it now?"
"Want who?"
"Our baby."
Claude sighed. "I've always wanted our baby just that I was blinded by worry when I found out that this baby could take your life."
"Claude, that's called a mother's struggle."
"I know. Sorry, Diana. But I still want to raise this baby with you. Hang on for me and our baby, will you?"
I'm nodding. "Sure, I'll hold on. But if I still can't, please love this kid like you love me?"
With a heavy heart, Claude nodded. "Of course it's dear."
Claude kept me company until Lucas came along. He kept talking about what he was going to do when this child was born. I'm glad to hear it, from the story I know that Claude really loves this child. According to the novel, Claude loved Athanasia very much, but because of Diana's death, he turned dark and hated Athanasia. But this time I'm going to stay, I don't want Athanasia to be hated like in a novel.
Lucas is coming. "Alright let's start the delivery. You wait outside."
Claude refused. "No. Why can't I accompany my wife to give birth?"
"You're just gonna bother. Anyway, this is no ordinary delivery, you'll be hurt if you go through with the process" Lucas explained.
"No problem" Claude replied.
" It would be very troublesome. So out!" lucas' orders.
I held Claude's hand. "Wait outside with Felix and Lily. I'll be fine."
"Please promise to hold on, Diana."
I'm nodding. "Sure Claude."
With a heavy heart Claude came out of my room.
