Reincarnation Diana

5

"Claude why did you tell Felix to stay away?" my many.

"Because he's too intrusive" he replied.

" It can't be like that next time!"

Claude showed a dislike face.

"Hmm? Is king Obelia sulking? Funny thing," I said as I poked Claude's arm.

"Don't tempt me, Diana!" the upset.

I chuckle.

"How about we dance? We haven't danced since our wedding day, have we?" take me.

Claude approached Felix. "Athanasian Jaga. Don't let any flies come to her!"

Felix holding Athanasia. "Okay, your honor. May I take Athanasia's daughter to the balcony? It's too crowded here, I think the princess needs some fresh air."

Claude nodded. "May, but don't stay out too long because the wind is not good for Athanasia."

"Okay, your honor."

After that Claude approached me and extended his hand. "Are you willing to dance with my noble consort?"

I smiled at Claude's behavior. "Of course, with pleasure."

I received Claude's hand. We walked to the center of the hall and danced there. The guests purposely made room for us to dance. They're watching us.

"Claude, I'm ashamed" I said, hiding a face in his chest.

"Hmm? Shame why?" tanyakanya.

"Why are they all watching us? Why don't they dance with us?" my many.

"They respect us as a royal family. That's why they dodge and make room for us to dance" he replied.

"But this room is big enough for all of us to dance together."

"Oh, don't think about them. Focus on me, Diana." Claude pulled my body closer to him.

We started dancing, but I was too nervous to step on Claude's foot. "I-I'm sorry, Claude."

Claude chuckles. "What's wrong, it doesn't hurt."

"really? I've been gaining weight lately."

"Yes dear."

We continued the dance. When the song was about to finish, there was a commotion. Claude and I stopped the dance.

"What's this commotion?!" ask Claude.

One of the nobles replied, "A-there's an intruder over there, your majesty. He hurt one of the nobles."

I was surprised too. "Inbid?!"

"Where did the intruder go?" ask Claude.

"He went that way. The knights are already chasing after him," he replied as he pointed towards the balcony.

"Balcony? Didn't Felix take Athanasia to the balcony?" manyworry.

"Evacuation of guests. Get them to a safe place!" claude's orders to the nobleman.

Claude ran straight to the balcony. "Damn, I hope Athanasia is okay."

I followed Claude to the balcony.

Arriving on the balcony, I was surprised to see a crying Athanasia in Felix's arms. The royal knights have also fallen a lot.

Claude approached but Felix stopped him. "Don't go near your highness, dangerous!"

"You crazy Felix?! My daughter is in danger!" angry Claude.

"The Athanasian princess is safe with my noble one. I will take care of him even if I lose my life."

"You still speak so despite being surrounded by enemies?!"

"I can finish this noble one."

"Don't be crazy Felix! Let your majesty help you," I said angrily.

Suddenly the intruder caught me from behind. "DIANA!"

"What do you want?!" claude asked the intruder.

"All we want is for you to die, your majesty. With that we'll get out of here" he replied.

"You crazy bad guys! You should be grateful to have a leader who can lead this kingdom well!" my spoken.

"Be quiet empress. You don't want your son and the knight dead, do you?"

"Don't touch my daughter!"

"It depends on you."

"All right, hand me the sword" Claude said.

"Claude?! You crazy?" Claude ignored my words.

Is Claude serious? When I was a young widow? No, you can't! My inner.

The criminal gave Claude a sword. But beyond estimation, instead of stabbing himself with the sword it turned out Claude stabbed his sword into the intruder.

"Diana, come!" Claude's orders.

I bit the hand of the criminal who caught me. But instead of approaching Claude, I broke through the intruders who surrounded Felix and ran towards him.

"WHERE ARE YOU DOING?!" shouted Claude.

I took Athanasia from Felix and carried her. "Cup cup pretty boy, this is dear mom. Stop crying."

The intruder that I bit his hand was angry, he took out magic and attacked me. Luckily Felix repelled the magic.

"Stay standing behind my noble consort" Felix said.

I saw Felix's body full of wounds. "Felix?! Your body is badly injured!"

"I'm fine, your Majesty. Thank you for worrying about me."

"It's okay how? Blood keeps coming out of your body."

"Your Majesty forgive me for giving you orders, but please listen to me. I'll attack those intruders and when there's a gap run to safety."

"But Felix, how can you attack them? They're a lot and you're hurt bad."

"It's okay, I can settle this noble consort. Trust me on. I'll definitely take care of you."

I finally nodded. Felix began to brutally attack the intruder. When there was a gap, I immediately ran and looked for a safe place to hide. But I haven't found a safe place to hide yet, there's another intruder ready to kill us. Athanasia started crying again. I tried to calm Athanasia down.

"Cup cup Athanasia, mom's here. I'll protect you." But Athanasia's cries never stopped.

"Your son is very noisy, the empress's majesty," said the intruder.

"It's only natural that children cry when they feel unsafe" I replied.

"But her crying made my ears hurt. Oh shall I kill your son so that he doesn't make any more noise?" he asked while drawing out a sword.

I slowly back off. "Don't fuck around!"

"I don't mess around, but only one. Give me your son and I'll let you survive."

"No will! Don't you dare touch her even a strand of her hair!"

I saw a sword near me and took it. It turned out that the sword was heavier than I expected let alone I raised it with one hand because my other hand was holding Athanasia.

"What do you want to do with that sword that noble empress?"

"Of course you kill me!"

The intruder laughed loudly. "Hahaha killing me? Very amusing. You even seem to mind raising that sword."

I'm silent.

"Just give up your highness, empress, I will send you to heaven painlessly."

"You're a lot of talk!" I said as I pointed his sword at the intruder.

The sword injured the intruder's wrist slightly.

"Cih troublesome. If you want to hurt me, do it right. Wounds like this don't feel like anything to me."

I tried to attack him again but the intruder repelled him and the sword I was holding was thrown.

"It's been quite a mess of his noble consort," he said.

"Who told you to do this?" my many.

"People who are going to die don't have much to ask."

Deadlocked. I don't know what else to do.

Huh if you know there will be an attack like this I should have learned the sword before. I hope I can still say goodbye to Claude and Lucas. I said in my heart.

Suddenly I remembered something. I took something out of my dress pocket and threw it on the floor to shreds. Within seconds, Lucas appeared.

"You used that jewel for a long time. I'm tired of looking for you in this huge palace!" namel Lucas.

"Searching for me?"

"Of course it's stupid. There's no way I don't know if something happened in the party hall but I can't find you anywhere. I only saw the noble and the redhead fighting."

"Are Claude and Felix okay?" manyworry.

"Sure, I helped her before you finally used the jewel to call me," she replied.

I let out a sigh of relief. "Thank God they're okay."

"So which fool would dare to attack you?" asked Lucas while researching around.

The intruder who recognized Lucas immediately attempted to escape but unfortunately he was caught by Lucas. Well no one can escape from Lucas.

"DIANA, ATHANASIA," cried Claude.

Claude and Felix ran towards me.

"Are you guys okay?" claude asked while checking on me and Athanasia. He held Athanasia and calmed her down. "Dad here Athanasia, everything is safe now."

Slowly Athanasia's cries stopped.

"We're fine, Claude. What about you and Felix?"

"I'm fine, Your Majesty. Thank you for worrying about me" Felix replied.

"He's not worried about you Felix, he's just worried about me" Claude said.

"But I heard that the empress mentioned my name as well" Felix replied.

"You heard wrong."

Felix looked at me and put on a face. "Is that really the empress' highness? Did I hear wrong? You're not worried about me?"

"No Felix. You didn't hear me wrong, I was worried about you too" I replied.

"Diana" whined Claude.

"Don't worry about other men."

"Felix I've taken it like my own little brother."

"It's an honor for my noble consort" Felix said.

"Silence Felix! Take ten steps back!" Claude's orders.

Felix.

"Your highness consort," cried Lily.

"Lilly? Are you all right?" my many.

"Oh my goodness, empress, are you still worried about me? I'm fine but I'm upset" Lily replied.

My forehead. "I regret why? Who would dare to piss off my beautiful Lily?"

"The knights held me back when they wanted to find you and Athanasia's daughter" Lily replied.

"Certainly the knights will hold you back. Outside it's dangerous, stay somewhere safe" I explained.

"What about you? While I was being evacuated, I didn't see you."

"Hmm that..." I didn't continue, I didn't know what reason to give.

"Of course, the redhead will die if we all keep talking here" Lucas said.

"Rubber. Felix must be treated first Lily. Take him to his room, I'll call the royal doctor!" my orders.

"Alright, your highness the empress. Mr. Robane let me take you to the room." Just as Felix was about to walk, suddenly his body was shaken. Lucky Lily caught him before Felix fell. Lily finally got Felix into Felix's room.

"Let's treat your wounds Claude" I said.

"no need. I'm fine," she refused.

Athanasia said her first word. "Well"

Claude surprised. "Did Athanasia just call me dad?"

I'm nodding. "Yes. Ah why the first word that came out of his mouth was you. Why not me?"

Athanasia said, "Mom"

This time I was surprised. I took Athanasia from Claude and carried her. "Dear, this is mom."

Athanasia hugged my neck. I hugged him too.

"It's very moving but your hands have to be treated" Lucas said.

Claude looked at my hand which turned out to be full of wounds. "Diana, are you hurt?! You said you were okay."

I saw my hand. "Ah it turns out to be a wound, I thought it was fine when holding the sword earlier."

"Sword?"

"Yes, there was a sword near me. So I used it against the intruder but it still didn't work" I explained.

"Give Athanasia to me. Witch, treat your highness empress!" Claude's orders.

"Okay, your honor." Lucas treated the wound on my hand and it disappeared in an instant.

"Thank you, Lucas."

"Either. Then I go back to the room" said Lucas.

"Wait for Lucas." I held his arm.

"What's wrong?" tanyakanya.

"I want to ask you something" I replied.

Lucas scrunched his forehead. "About what?"

"Before that...Claude can you go back to the room with Athanasia? I think he's tired so put him to bed early."

Claude scrunched his forehead. "Why did you suddenly throw me out? What do you want to ask the witch?"

"It's nothing and I didn't kick you out, Claude. I'm sorry to see a sleepy Athanasia."

Claude looked towards Athanasia. "Ah yes. Then don't be long, hurry back to the room."

I'm nodding. After that Claude left.

"So what do you want to ask?" ask Lucas.

"Lucas, can I learn magic?" my many.

"Hmm? Sure, as long as you have enough mana to learn magic," he replied.

"Then do I have it?" ask again.

"Yes, you have but not as big as your son's" he replied.

"That's enough. The important thing is that I can learn magic. Then please teach me defense magic, Lucas," I asked.

Lucas, who felt strange at my request, asked "Why do you suddenly want to learn magic?"

"After this incident, I thought it would be nice if I could do magic at least to keep Athanasia" I explained.

"Without you learning magic, your husband and the redhead will take care of you."

"We don't know when to use our own abilities. I don't want to be a burden to them. Please teach me magic?" my door.

"All right."

"Thank you, Lucas. So when are we gonna start learning?" I'm just impatient.

"Later," he answered briefly.

"Don't wait, soon."

"You are very impatient. Day after tomorrow."

"But Lucas, I have one request."

"What else?"

"Please keep this a secret from everyone. Enough of you and me to know."

"All right." After that Lucas left. I went back to my room too. But before returning to the room, I called the royal physician to treat Felix.

When I walked into the room, Claude was reading the documents. "Claude, why haven't you slept?"

"I'm waiting for you. You were so long. What are you talking about with that witch?"

"It's nothing."

"You don't want to tell me?"

"Seriously it's nothing, Claude. I have a request for you."

"What's that?"

"I want to learn the sword."

Claude looked at me strangely. Why is everyone looking at me strangely when they hear my request? Is that as weird as my request? I guess not.

"Why do you want to learn the sword?" tanyanya.

"To take care of yourself" I replied.

"You have Felix as your personal bodyguard. Although I'm lazy to tell you this, but I admit that Felix is the greatest knight in the world."

"Yes I know. Not that I doubt Felix's ability, but Felix can't always be with me, right? There are times when he is not near me. What if there's another attack when Felix isn't around?"

"Should I choose another knight for you?"

"no need. I just want to learn Claude's sword. I beg ya?"

"Alright, but you will be taught directly by me. I won't let you be taught by anyone else."

"Yes, thank you very much" I said, hugging Claude.

"At a time like this you just called me baby" Claude said.

"Hey I call you baby!" my exposition.

"really?"

"of course. You're the one who didn't notice it." Claude tightened his embrace.

I was curious about the documents Claude had read. "What are you reading, Claude?"

"Your calling changed again."

"OK okay. What are you reading, baby?" I said repeating the question.

"I was looking at the household budget while waiting for you earlier."

"Is there something wrong with that?"

"Nothing, but I'm surprised."

"Why?"

"Why are the expenditures from the empress' palace so few? Don't you ever shop for anything, Diana?"

"Yes, I'm too lazy to shop. There's nothing I want to buy anyway."

"You're weird. The noble ladies out there are vying to buy things that are trending but you are not. You are the queen of this kingdom."

"I'm not too interested in following the trend. Better to keep the money and save it."

"Kown? I won't be poor even if you buy 20 mansions in Obelia."

"I also shopped. You know I don't have any friends, right? It's too boring to shop alone."

"Then bring one of the noble ladies. They'll want you to take her."

"Yes, but I don't like them all."

"Why?"

"They're all hypocrites. I don't like hypocrites."

"Has anything ever happened to you and the noble ladies?"

"Not really. Never mind that I'm sleepy. Let's go to sleep, Claude." take me.

"Yes in a minute. You sleep first."

"don't want. I'm gonna sleep hugging you."

"Alright, I'll tidy up these documents first."

While waiting for Claude to clear the documents, I suddenly remembered Athanasia. He was crying so hard earlier. "Well, is Athanasia okay? He was crying so hard earlier. I'm worried that he's hurt somewhere."

"He's fine. He seemed to be surprised by everything that had happened. But take it easy, I put him to bed and now he's fast asleep" Claude explained.

I feel relieved. "Thank God."

Claude finished the paperwork. "Let's go to sleep."

I got into his arms and fell asleep.
