(Lancelot’s POV)As I brushed my light brown hair backwards, I stared at myself many times in the mirror. Now that I look closely, I really have reincarnated as Lancelot Ral Constance. A slightly 23 and slender stature, Caucasian skin, with amber eyes and light brown wavy short hair. He has such beautiful features yet not much readers remembered him as he died very early in the novel. I also felt guilty because I too never cared to remember him, especially because he was an evil person, who just does everything that Avery asked him to do. Speaking of Avery, today was the day where I finally was asked to accompany her to the royal ball in the palace to celebrate her engagement with the second prince, Louis Ilya Tristan. That night will also be the moment where I will die, either by the first prince’s hands, or by the poison. I have trained my swordsmanship skills enough already, so maybe the poison will kill me later than usual.“Master, are you ready?”Taylor knock

(Lancelot’s POV)I unsheathed my sword and get into my battle stance. 6 empowered intermediate beasts, huh? Luckily I remembered this scene in the novel where Cecilia would be attacked by the beast when she secretly went home to meet her parents. In the original plot, they fought the beasts for too long that the second prince realize her being gone and searched for her. Ultimately, the second prince would also put the blame of releasing the beast to Lancelot when in actuality, it was Avery who had done it. I don’t care much even if the blame were put on me, because I’m gonna die anyways, but if I were to let things be, Cecilia’s close aid, Dante Arville will be rendered disable due to the damage that was caused by the curse on the beasts fang. And in the later half of the novel, Dante somehow became evil and wanted to take the throne of the country....Sounds mad, right? But I forgot to tell you that the main theme for the novel is action before romance, so of cour

(Asher’s POV)“My word...”My mother gasped.“Has he ever been that beautiful?”She said, and we continued to be in silence again. Gradually, noise come back filling the hall. People continued to chatter, but I’m sure that the words of smite were less than the words of praise to the Baron, may it be his outfit or the different aura that he emmitted just now.When the ceremony started, the main door opened and two figures stepped in. As expected, Louis was the one who escorted Avery into the hall. They both look beautiful, but unfortunately, tonight is the night where they will annul their engagement so wearing that beautiful outfit seemed like a waste.The ceremony continued on. Why does it feel very long before the moment where they annul their engagement? I couldn’t seem to sit still.Finally, after some time, they finally declared their annulment and I left the seat to continue with my plan to kill the Baron.***(Cecilia’s POV)I grasped my hands tightly as I s

(Asher’s POV) I brought the Baron’s body closer to me as the color of his face drained. In that moment, my mind went blank. I have killed the Baron, now what? Oh, right... I have to make his body a display for people who wanted to tarnish the kingdom’s name.Then...What comes after that? Strangely enough, seeing as his soul slowly slipped away from his body, I also felt like all of my emotions had faded away.I feel empty. I gazed again at his soulless body. He looked very stunning in his outfit, a soft turquoise green long coat paired with white shirt and white trousers. Unexpectedly, he also used an ear cuff on one side of his ears, making him look beautiful, even when he was dying. I clenched my trembling hand that was smeared with his blood. Earlier when our eyes met, I unexpectedly almost mouthed a praise to him just like what I was about to do back in the hall.As he basked in the moonlight, looking as if he was waiting for me, my heart w

(Lancelot’s POV)“...What is this...?”I glanced towards the pair of handcuffs that were put on me by the prince a few minutes ago with confused eyes.“This is a magic handcuff. Whenever you try to escape from this mansion, it will immediately transmit electrical magic and zapped you on the spot.”The prince explained nonchalantly. Also, without me realizing, he also put the cuffs on my neck.“Do you really think that I would escape from here? You’re the one who told me that we are now in your family mansion’s at the southern part of the continent, that’s too far from my estate!”          What I said is true. A journey from the south back to my estate which was located in the northeast part of the continent without the help of teleportation magic is very far, and I have to somewhat revise a plan before I could escape and gather up enough
