Lahat ng Kabanata ng Phoenix Egg for a Pheasant’s Egg: Kabanata 1 - Kabanata 10

"Ever since I became pregnant, I had to sleep in the room next to the sycamore tree. Otherwise, I can't sleep at all. Sometimes flocks of colorful birds and magpies gather around me, chirping endlessly. It must be the little one in my belly causing all the commotion."I looked at my sister, Freya Horn, as she feigned distress and made a show out of rubbing her belly while recounting the strange signs that had been happening since she became pregnant.It was then that I realized I had been reborn.A pheasant egg having to sleep next to a sycamore tree? Magpies circling a tree? What a joke.Regardless, I knew better than to call her out on the spot. Since she had been setting up her act since I was pregnant, it would take more than a brisk comment for me to expose her.I smiled and remarked, "Hey, Freya, with all these strange things happening around you, it looks like you’re going to give birth to a little phoenix, eh?"Freya beamed at the suggestion.Unbeknownst to her, I sensed

That was when I felt the fireblood in my body coming to a boil and seemed to erupt. It hurt so much that I cried out in pain.Horrified by my cry of anguish, my maids and guards hurried me into the villa.The Phoenix Queen remarked cheerily, "She’s surrounded by fire, so it must be a phoenix! There is a sycamore tree house in the villa. Take her there for her to deliver the egg!"That was when something flashed in Freya's eyes. She cast a spell over herself so she would also deliver prematurely and then let out a sharp yelp. She clenched her teeth and announced that she was going into labor as well."What should we do? There is only one sycamore house in the villa!" Emmett played along as well.There was no need for a sycamore tree if she was only laying a bastard egg! I knew they only wanted to use the chaos to switch the eggs!Sweat poured down my face from the pain I was going through at this point, and I was losing my cool. All I could do was instruct my maids to surround me

Asgon cast a spell and channeled it into Aunt Rue’s body before threatening her, "If you let anything slip, the spell will kill you instantly before you even realize what’s happening!"Aunt Rue nodded frantically and did not utter a word. She fixed her expression to look composed before retreating from the room.Soon, I heard Freya’s voice, shrill with delight, coming from the adjacent room. She cried out ecstatically, "My prince, Your Majesty! I've laid a pure-bred golden phoenix egg!"Emmett's and the Phoenix Queen’s spirits brightened in an instant upon hearing this. They poured into the room to see her and seemed to have forgotten about me and Asgon.Asgon and I exchanged a smile. Then, he carried me and the golden egg back to our home.I fell asleep in the carriage on the way.When I woke up, I found myself in our palace.By then, Freya had spread the news of her pure-blooded golden phoenix egg far and wide.The Phoenix King was overjoyed. Soon, a steady stream of gifts fo

With that, there was no satisfying resolution. It was decided that the decision would have to wait until the golden phoenix was hatched.Freya cradled the "golden phoenix egg" while flashing a smug smile at me. I observed how sallow and shriveled her skin had become.I wondered how she would react when she realized the egg she was cradling was the pheasant egg she had laid herself. It would be quite the spectacle.The Phoenix King and the ministers had arrived at a compromise. With this, it was publicly known that when the golden phoenix hatched, the father would become the successor to the throne.With that, Freya would also become the Crown Princess.Upon hearing the news, my parents personally came to visit Freya to shower her with gifts.Meanwhile, all I got was some perfunctory gifts in the form of several sugared eggs.Mother hardly cared to take another glance at me. She was more occupied with herself and remarked scornfully, "Your sister Freya has always been a model child, unl

In my past life, Asgon was killed because they had forced him to exert the very last drop of his divine power!Freya was furious. It was then that she realized everything I had told her was a lie. The egg had never been swapped! The pheasant she was looking at was the one she had given birth to!The Phoenix King listened to everything relayed to him. He had been ruling for long enough to see through the foolish act the Phoenix Queen and Emmett had committed.His face darkened in an instant. He immediately gave the order for the Phoenix Queen to be imprisoned. Then, the Prince was taken to a platform to have his blood examined to determine his lineage!Everything Asgon had gone through in my previous life was now inflicted on Emmett instead.The color was drained from his lips. He cried hysterically while pleading, "Father, please spare me!"The Phoenix King ignored his pleas and ordered the execution to proceed.A blinding bolt of divine light burst out when the sword slashed ag
