Pfft!"
The white table banket was dyed red. The kid who spat out blood had an expression not knowing what happened. And it was the sa for the 2 people with her.
"Princess!"
Another cup of blood was spat out after the loud shout. The blood bright red like the little shoes on the kid's feet wet the dress white as the table blanket, red.
From her tilting body, Claude's body stood up against his will. The body which escaped the chair onto the floor had no consciousness. It looked like a dead body. Thinking that Claude couldn't help but shake and flinch for a second.
"Princess, Just what is this!"
Felix who ran to the kid shook her, shouting out words. Claude was frozen without moving a muscle for a mont. This didn't feel real.
Only the sense of mana rapidly running on his hands felt real. The reason was unknown but he sensed that the mana was the reason why she fainted. If it weren't controlled soon, it would be really dangerous.
Claude reached his hand forward and was about to give so mana but stopped.
"Princess! Open your eyes, princess!"
'Do I really need to save her?'
It was because that kind of thought passed by him.
Weren't he planning on killing her? If so, he could just let her be.
From the day she was born all the way here....
"Euu...."
When the kid who stopped his hands from killing her would just kill herself.
"Ah, Euk.... Dad...."
With a small weak mutter, the eyes opened a little reflecting his face. The hand held onto his cloth then fell again. At the sa ti, his reflection in the blue crystal gem-like eyes were nowehre to be seen.
"Bring the doctor."
Claude spoke trying to calm the mana down giving his mana into her body
(This is ironic because giving Atti more mana in her body will worsen the situation.)
"Quick!"
The words he was speaking was very impatient and hurried but he himself didn't notice.

"Did princess fall asleep?"
"Yes."
"She seems comfortable."
Felix had a relieved face.
"The wizard went to his room. Stange parts of him weren't found yet but should we keep on researching?"
"Nothing bad being careful. Do not let your guard down."
"Understood."
Claude and Felix both couldn't believe in that wizard who ca like he fell down from the sky all of a sudden.
(He didn't actually fall down from the sky. Just an expression.)
But it was true that the boy around 10 years old cured the princess. No one could imagine how the princess would be like if he didn't co on ti.
Claude looked down at the kid who acted in order to defend for her pet.
Zzzzz. The faint sound of her breathing was clear in the ears. Claude who was quiet for a mont spoke quietly in a low voice.
"I thought it wouldn't matter when or how she disappeared from my eyes."
His gaze looking at the sleeping child was still cold. However the emotions in him was not hers but his.
"Funny that that weren't it."
"Your majesty."
"Get out if you're going to talk nonsence again. I don't feel like listening today."
Felix stayed quiet for a while before bowing and leaving the room. Then the room gain its aura again.
Claude stared at the kid sleeping without her guard up.
To be truth, he was always seeking for timing, a chance.
'Dad!'
Will I be able to kill her today? Can I kill her today. Like that, for each and every day. And after today, tomorrow.
'Dad. Hehe.'
But in the end he couldn't kill her.
'Atti will sing lullaby for daddy!'
Damn that won.
He held in the swearings.
You could've left and that would be good for all but uselessly leaving a thing sa as her behind.
'Daddy, good morning!'
Spiteful won.
When she left so irresponsible. But still on going on that I cannot even forget about you.... I almost forgot all of it. Just almost.
But he rembered all again seeing those 2 big round eyes.
'I wish papa would like Atti more!'
When the kid say that thinking he was asleep, Claude smirked as he made fun of it ntally.
'Actually it was a lie that I didn't want to see mommy.'
Stupid kid. That won't happen. There won't be a day before I die that I will accept you as my daughter or have good emotions towards you.
'But it is true that Atti don't need to..'
Because leaving this kid alive was just because his life was boring. If he weren't crazy, he wouldn't want to keep the child who doesn't have any good point on her but instead is noisy, annoying and needs the fullest care.
'Because Atti has papa.'
But he didn't know why these words were frustratingly hurting. Tingle tingle. And also the reason why does his heart tingle whenever he sees the girl.
The kid was always brightly smiling at him not knowing he was thinking of killing her. That is when beco frustrated.
It was normal that he wanted to kill her more as the day passed by.
But....
'Wahh! It hurts, sniff. Oww....'
But he got angry when she actually was in a situation where she was really going to die.
'Oww. Dad, it hur.... Wahh.'
Don't be ridiculous.
'This is because of so kind of magical creature.'
You don't have to be like your mom at sothing like this too.
'I will kill it.'
'Your majesty! The young wizard said he can cure the princess. Killing this creature can be considered after princess wakes up.'
'My mind's already set. Why do I need to keep a thing alive when it hunts down his owner's life?'
The black thing was easily held in his hand.
That thing would stay still rolling his eyes carefully not knowing what danger he was in. That stupidity reminded him of its owner that it annoyed him.
'Your majesty, calm down. Using this creature, controlling princess's mana can go easier.'
Atanasia, a kid inexcusable like her na.
She was annoying to him. So he thought of killing her a lot. Seeming the saying kids can see through a person's mind is true, the girl would show a little fear everyti as if she saw through him.
Even though he knew, he'd always act cold.
It would be great if she was scared and wouldn't dare co to see . The he and the child will be more comfortable. Then he wouldn't be thinking back to his past.
But the kid would always co the day afterwards and start to smile like an idiot. That was extrely annoying.
'Do anything you can. If the princess dies, you die with.'
I want to kill her who is hateful whenever I see her. But I also want to see her more. No, I want to get rid of her right now. But just for a little longer....
His mind wouldn't stay calm. Ah, everything is annoying.
"Atanasia."
He could kill her any ti if he wanted to. That is why I'm keeping you alive.
"I dislike you."
Claude whispered again at the kid with her eyes closed.
"I dislike you."
But his words wouldn't go into the sleeping one's ears but his own and would go deep inside his feelings.
"I...."
But his hand reaching for her neck would go up to her forehead and would lightly touch it. His mouth didn't open watching the girl sleep.
And his shadow by the girl wouldn't leave for the rest of the night.
