I headed to the family head's office asking the butler to gather all the workers in my residence. They were all standing in the middle room. The room is where the other room, there is a ladder to go to the bedroom.
I stood on the stairs and said, "Now I am the new head of the family, serve me!"
They all looked at me and looked down.
"Well, Miss!"
"Go back to work!" my orders to them.
I went to my room. The walls were broken and the floor was destroyed. My bed was also scorched due to fire magic. I should've asked Trevor to fight in the yard instead of in my room. I took a long breath. Unnecessary expenses I'll have to pay for Trevor. But even this is good. I'll have a new room. I'll decorate it better than it is now. Meanwhile, I have to sleep in the guest room. I don't want to sleep in Trevor's room. I also don't want to sleep in Dad's room because it will remind me of him.
I'll prepare for tomorrow. I'm going to the palace to receive the title of head of the family.

I walk on the red carpet. Bowing my head deeply while prostrating in front of the person wearing the crown. That person approached me while putting the magic book beside my shoulder.
"I hereby appoint you as the new Head of the Moonlight Family, Diana Moonlight," the person said.
The king moved his magic book to my other shoulder.
"I ask your oath of allegiance to serve me forever" the King commanded.
"I Diana Moonlight promised to be loyal to the King and protect the Sunborn Kingdom until death picks me up" I replied as I looked at the King.
King Eric. The king ascended the throne more quickly due to the death of his parents when he was a child. Many people are looking for an opportunity to kill their lives. However, those who spoke of his life were afraid of his power. He is like a sun that cannot be touched by man.
We were friends when my father took me to the palace. At that time his father and mother were still alive. Our age is not much different. I easily got along with her because she was lonely.
Many noble girls approached her. Eric has no wife. Even in my previous life I didn't hear she was married. It could have been wrong, too, because Trevor isolated me from the outside world. Trevor never told me what was going on out there.
Eric lifted up his magic book. I stood up and greeted him and walked out of the room.
***
Eric's workspace looks luxurious. Although it is a bit messy. I don't know why he didn't hire an aide. I think because of his nature that is difficult to trust others.
He served me tea and snacks that I liked. I picked up some snacks and sipped my tea. It tastes sweet and smells good. Like all those years I've been eating it. I almost forgot the taste. Good food used to taste bland on my tongue. I try to keep myself from spending it all right away.
"Spend it if you want it Diana," said Eric.
He looked at me gently. I don't know what that means. It seems like he noticed my gurgle eating like a starving man.
"Well if you force." In the end, I couldn't help but spend it all.
"You haven't been to the palace in a long time."
Thas right. I haven't been here for two years. I was afraid to disturb him, because of his busy life as king. In my previous life I couldn't come here because my senses were lost one by one.
"I'm sorry if it's a mess" he said, holding his hands together.
"It's okay. So why did you invite me here?"
I can understand him because of his nature. However, is there anything important Eric wants to tell me?
"I want to congratulate you for being the Head of the Family."
"thank you. Is there any more? I don't think you just want to congratulate me."
If you want to congratulate me, it doesn't seem necessary to take me to his room.
"About the bird is that true?"
It seems like it was about me fighting with my brother for the title of head of the family.
"That's right. I fought with Trevor to determine the title of head of the family. I'm sure he faked my father's will. Ah. I also brought the letter. You can prove this is manipulated or not?" I took out Trevor's father's will. Actually I did want to see him to prove whether this letter was manipulated or not.
Eric accepts. "Of course."
A device to detect the presence of magic flew towards us. Eric scanned my father's will using the device. The device sounded.
"This letter is manipulated, the proof is that it reads. You are the rightful head of Diana's family" Eric said as he returned my father's will.
I grabbed. "As I suspected."
No, it's because Trevor told me this in my previous life.
"I will spread this all over the kingdom. I'll help you find your brother. I'll let you know if I find him" he said with a smile.
"Thank you, Eric. Then I'll go home first." I returned her smiling.
I stood up and said goodbye to go home. Eric doesn't have to find Trevor. I already know where Trevor is, he must be at his friend's residence. No need to quickly visit it. I wanted to scare her little by little. My revenge is not to kill him.
***
I was in the head family's office. There are a lot of gifts here. All to congratulate the title of head of the family I got. I read the letter addressed to me. Most letters to propose to me. The rest is a letter of cooperation. The news of me being the head of the family must have spread. Eric spread it. Actually I know what he means, he doesn't want people to misunderstand me. Because shortly after Trevor became the head of the family, he disappeared replaced by his sister. People will think I snatched the title of head of the family out of envy.
If the response is negative, the application will not be this much. The news delivered by Eric is the rightful head of the family is Diana Moonlight. The Moonlight family's first child manipulates her so that the second child only asks for her rights. That's why he asked me about the bird. Actually I don't care if my reputation gets damaged or not. However, when it ends well I'll thank Eric.
I burned the letters one by one. I don't want to get engaged to anyone. There was a letter that caught my attention. I kept it just in case. The Skyrise Family.
I smiled wryly even in this life she also wanted to be engaged to me. Keith Skyrise was my fiancee in a previous life.
I will not forgive you for leaving me. I'll get engaged to you this time, but only to see you get hurt. I'm gonna make you fall in love and throw you away just like you did to me in a previous life.
