Chapter 3: When the Sorceress learns about the world and fixates goals for the future!

I opened my eyes a moment after disintegrating within the abyss… or so it should have been…

I was supposed to get reincarnated as a newborn baby fresh and clean… but why in the world am I in the body of a 16 years old young woman?!

<Abyss you fraud! What is the meaning of this!>

You would think I am pissed off because I am already a grown up, right? Well, that’s not everything, truth to be told and things have to be clear!

The “Evanson” name, this silver like the full moon bright in the sky, Crimson red eyes the color of two soaring full blood moons in the sky! A face that would make a Hollywood actress cowers in shame like a squid standing in front of a goddess! Yes… that kind of beauty/cuteness/nobility!

One of the characters in that Role Play Game that I liked the most! The noble daughter of the noblest house after the imperial family! The house of the duke leader of the aristocratic faction, the man with Silver hair and ice blue eyes, with the name Cassius Von Evanson, he strike fear and oppress those squids with his charisma! That same man whom lost his wife that he loved the most the day his second child, the first noble young lady of the house, was born.

The once a noble and righteous duke, turned onto a block of ice obsessed with power and ranks! Neglecting his daughter wish he despised for killing his own and one only love, turning the girl onto the villainess of that served as pawn for him to control the throne trough political weddings!

Someone knocked at the door and opened it after I gave permission, a woman dressed in maids clothes stood in front of the door and bowed in my direction then spoke.

<My lady, his grace the Duke is here>

The duke? Speak of the devil and he shall appear… everything is going to clear up the moment I meet him… if his world is really from that game or not!

The duke came in without permission; well it’s his house but still!

<I see that you are still sleeping, are you planning to spend the entire day lazing around?>

Wow… nagging me early in morning? I wonder when it was the last time since I heard something like this.

How should I respond to something like this? Maybe in a ay similar to ho I talk to a boss or the judge in the court of justice during a law suit?

Yeah let’s try that… with a touch of elegance and nobility from those manga and historical novel and series I watched!

<Pardon me, your grace. I have shown you an unsightly figure, you there, prepare a bath for me and some pain killers, I will pick my clothes myself>

<Yes my lady, at once>

<Your grace, would you excuse me for a minute until I finish dressing up? I shall join you in your office when I am ready>

<My office is not somewhere you can step in, join me in the drawing room when your are more presentable>

Such a jerk… I hate him already.

<Yes your grace, I then shall not waste your time anymore>

He left without turning his head back after staring at me for a moment, the hell is wrong with this handsome old man? Is it perhaps because I look stunning in night gowns? Nah that can’t be, he is bad not perverted, right?

Deeding on ho that man used to treat his daughter I doubt he came all the way here for a simple good morning or just to nag me, right? He probably wants to discuss something important right?

At least give me some clues! Abyss!

And like magic he answered my call and sends a notice visible only to me mid air.

    {Notice, sending information about the host character}

Another flood of information caused me another headache; seriously… my head is going to pop if this continues… but at least things are clearer now

By information, the system granted me memories of me in this world and the reason why I just remembered who I was in my past life.

It appears to be that to keep this body’s brain working the memories were unlocked when this body’s magic was awakened.

So in other world the day the daughter of Evanson house awakened her magic abilities, it triggered the switch to awaken her past self… that’s me. No wait… the current me is the daughter of this house and the orphan company lawyer that have died in that accident.

The Evanson daughter, fiancée of this empire crown prince, the daughter of the Duke of Evanson, the villainess that get’s in the way of that same crown prince love and also a company lawyer, an orphan independent woman whom died a virgin with so many regrets, became the Harold of the abyss with a world saving duty in a doomed world! Both personalities merged and became Satiana Von Evanson.

It’s kind of confusing… after all merging two personalities into one… isn’t this a schizophrenia?

I understand more now why the merging started only now… after all Satiana’s awakened magic is a psychic one. A magic that acts on the astral and plan! The magic that toys with mind and influence them! A magic that appears only in legend! That magic is called Hersey magic! Perfect magic for a villainess, but more importantly, it’s perfectly compatible with my magic!

As the Harold of the abyss I got powers, you can consider me as a type of a sorceress with a big skill tree and an additional rare skill called [Abyss Magic].

I ordered the maid to prepare my bath water as I organized my thoughts…

I sunk my body in the water, let’s see now what do I have in my hands and my role in this world…

This world got destroyed, but the Goddess of light even though she is considered as a low ranking god, she sacrificed her divine energy to reverse time saving this world from being swallowed by the void. She ended up in a dormant state, and so this world practically lost its last guardian…

The Abyss, symbol of order, balance and chaos, even after abandoning this world once, he decided to give this one last chance by sending an apostle, that’s me.

The apostle duty is to bring back order and balance with the help of the Pandora system, the Abyss blessings.

The Pandora system is practically a game interface no matter how much I look at it. Status board, skill tree and list, equipments, and an interface called… archive. I need to learn more about all of this… after all a power is useless without mastery right?

And it seems like my first quest in this world already started…

{Notice, Go and see what the Duke wants’ from you}

Let’s pick a dress and go meet that old man, and let’s get over with this first quest!

<Too ugly, too much frizzles, flashy, too boring, like an old woman, too tight, too shabby, oh! This one is good>

<M-My lady?! Are you going to wear that to meet the duke?! You should put on something more…>

<And who in heaven are you to question me? I don’t recall giving you permission to speak, I wonder who’s the master here, you or me?>

She fell down on her knees begging for mercy

<Pardon me my lady! I-I have committed a grave sin!>

<At least you’re aware of that, I guess you are not that stupid after all, very well, drag her out and give her a good beating then change the location where she works, if she dares to resist kick her out, there is no need for a disobedient servant in this house!>

<Yes my lady>

<No, please my lady! Spare me! I beg you!>

<Make sure she learns how to keep quiet, she’s quite noisy early in the morning for an incompetent servant> 

The servants dragged her out of the room while she was crying in panic. Serves you right, did she really think I would forgive her after recalling my past life memories? Hah! Like hell that would happen in my presence, it’s time for retribution!

That maid, she is one of the crown prince people, he is a spy put by my side to monitor my actions, Satiana knew it, and even though that maid treated her horribly she kept quiet for the sake of a worthless love!

Well here is a thing… This lady here is not to be messed up with! And that maid is going to be my first scapegoat in order to gain the duke’s favor. Let me show you how this chick managed to survive for more than ten years alone!
