"Angela, welcome back dear~"
A glamorous woman wearing in black from head to toe greets a beautiful girl near the entrance of a huge mansion placed on the top of a private hill.
"Yes, Mother. Where is Father?"
Grizel, no, Angela asked her mother who covered herself in gothic ornaments.
"That mad scientist? He won't step outside of his beloved lab except an earthquake occurred"
The gothic woman said scornfully to her so-called husband.
"Who are you talking about?"
A messy yet attractive man wearing a lab-coat asked abruptly from behind the gothic woman.
"Darling, can you call the government to ask for any disaster notification?"
The gothic woman said to her daughter in a panic tone asking for any news of disaster because her husband is unbelievably stepping outside his lab.
"Hah, what kind of nonsense are you talking about? Of course, I'll come outside to welcome my lovely daughter. Is that witchcraft-thing finally hit your sanity?"
Angela nonchalantly staring at her gothic mother and mad scientist father bickering on each other, it's a normal circumstance anytime she has the time to go home on the sidelines of her busy business schedule.
"Grandmother"
Angela chirped happily when a glimpse of an old strict woman with a menacing aura caught her eyes, the bickering husband and wife flinched in unison when they heard their beloved daughter called the most terrifying existence of the house.
"Oh, my cute and beautiful Granddaughter. Why don't you send me prior notice of your arrival, I'll welcome you myself"
Angela clings to her hand and the menacing aura disappears immediately when the old lady talks to her sweet granddaughter.
"Oh, I want to surprise my dearest Grandmother but sadly I was welcomed by the argument of your son and daughter-in-law instead"
She said with fake tears and a sad tone, hearing her granddaughter, the menacing aura reappear and doubled when she throwing a glare at the trembling husband and wife.
"No, Mother. It's just a misunder-"
"Silence"
The husband tried to explain but was cut mercilessly by his mother.
"Angela just arrived at the house and you two as her parent still acting childish, she just barely fifteen years old yet managing our business perfectly in charge of your absence, as a parent do you feel no shame? She is blah blah blah blah blah..."
Another long lecture just began, the husband and wife cried inwardly when they see their tricky daughter smirking behind her grandmother and waving her hand as if saying, Goodbye and enjoy your time~
"Look at our daughter's acting skills and wicked personality, as the former Queen of the entertainment industry, aren't you happy?"
The husband sneered at the gothic wife whispering about Angela's personality she inherited from her mother, known as the former Queen of the entertainment industry, she mercilessly erased her rivals in public or private with shady schemes. Naivety has no place in this harsh business, all about how to trick or being tricked.
"Humph! Aren't you the same? She got that good brain of yours and even the better version of the former heartless genius scientists"
His wife scoffed back to her husband, genius people tend to be heartless and always calculate everything based on the value or benefits, just like their daughter who always sees everything based on their usefulness.
Sigh...
The husband and wife sighed helplessly, they have created a little devil without horns, born with a diamond spoon as the sole heiress to the Samael family enormous businesses, possess the heavenly beauty yet wicked personality from her mother, inherited the good brain yet heartless behavior from her father, praised by the world and feared by her enemies.
"I see, you two still have the guts to discuss during my lecture"
Gulped!
The husband and wife look at the source of the voice while trembling like a trapped mouse, the old lady who heard their whole discussion called the nearby guards.
"Bring them to the punishment room, seems like they need more than lecture"
"NOOOOOOOO...!!!"
-â¢-
Jolt!
Grizel wakes up in surprise, she holds her heavy head and could feel pain all over her body while observing the surrounding, it's her chamber in Belial castle.
'Seems like I was having a dream about my former family as Angela when I was fifteen years old'
'Pfft...'
Grizel, no, Angela recalled the faces of her hilarious parents at the end of her dream.
'They are the only entertainment whenever I am at home'
In her former life, she has a hobby to make fun of the miserable life of her rivals when dealing with business, but whenever she is taking a rest and back at Samael's mansion she will get bored easily because of the peaceful environment, therefore she chooses to make a little prank for her beloved parents whenever she is at home.
Grab!
Someone who sits next to her bed embraced the half-awakened girl tightly, the shocked Grizel get a glimpse of reddish-blonde hair next to her face then mumbled.
"Prince Rex...?"
"You almost make me a widower right before our engagement party huh?"
Rex whispered in relief while drowning his face in Grizel's warm shoulder.
"Your Highness, you better not to touch any alcoholic beverages before your coming of age ceremony"
The confused Grizel only answered him casually, then she heard a chuckle before Rex lifted his head and look into her oceanic eyes.
"I am not drunk"
Grizel tilted her head looking at the visible black circle under his gleamed citrine eyes and a tired yet relieved expression not befitting his usual princely appearance.
Rex pinched her nose in annoyance.
"Do you know how long you have been unconscious?"
"A day?"
Grizel asked while rubbing her red noose caused by her fiance.
"A week"
She looks at him in disbelief as if saying, as expected he is drunk.
The prince just sighed and point his index finger to the corner of the room.
"As I said, I am not drunk. Look at them"
Grizel's gaze shifted to the pointed direction, a woman with maid clothes and a Butler sleeping soundly on the floor.
"They just barely sleeping in a week and collapsed at the moment when your breathing finally stable"
Grizel tried to get up but feels numb all over her body just like 9 years ago when she is still a baby, she can barely move.
"My Prince~"
Her sudden sweet tone makes the surprised prince blushed but considering his fiance's personality, she won't do something like this without any reason.
"What do you want?"
He asked her with anticipation of being tricked and fell into her trap again.
"Please carry me to them~"
Grizel asked him with puppy eyes while opening her arms with the hope of being carried to her sleeping subordinates.
The prince couldn't refuse his fiance's small request and started to carry her like a Princess towards the fatigue servants.
"Do you want me to wake them up?"
He asked Grizel who is still being carried by him in his arm. They are standing next to the sleeping Levi and Lucy.
"No need, it's already within the range"
Grizel mumbled while stretching her right hand above the sleeping two.
"Range?"
Prince Rex asked but suddenly he could feel someone is gathering mana, someone who is still in his arm, he looks toward his fiance.
"Grizel?"
A white light appears on Grizel's palm like a miniature of the sun, the sparkling sunshine wrapped both her servants, it's warm and full of vitality.
Along with the sparkling white light, she activated the blessing of Solomon, the white color aura, suddenly Grizel's body emits a powerful calming air, make the surrounding feeling peace and secure with her existence.
Levi and Lucy drowned into a deeper slumber as if warmly embraced by their goddess, their fatigue, fear, anxiety, nightmares are all gone and replaced with a peaceful dream.
Rex who is watching his fiance in silence can't help but widened his eyes, he didn't know about that sudden calming atmosphere that makes Grizel look like an actual angel comforting her servants, but he was aware of one thing.
That white mana on his fiance's palm, he knows the people who use the same mana, even though Grizel's mana is far brighter and enchanting compared to the priests, it's still the same...
"Did you awakened as a Holy Class?"
Grizel smiled serenely befitting a calm angel and nodded to his question.
"Yes"
To be continued...
