After that exhausting dinner, Yra felt dead tired. The Emperor only looked at her once, asked her once, then spoke to her once. And she only managed to utter one word, and she even made a blunder with this one word.

Truth to be told, the Emperor was really really handsome. If not for Yra acting reserved, she might have been salivating after the Emperor now. She actually doesn't care if it was her father. She doesn't have any feelings for him, as his blood relative.

Still, with just one glance, Yra did capture the Emperor's scum aura. He wasn't like his Claude-sama at all! Yra sborted, as she walked with steady footsteps back to her room. 

That Emperor has a cold, hard heart. Yra knew a person with the same disposition, but that person, at least recognized her own blood relative and was very possessive of her own sweetheart. 

Yra clicked her tongue. She always thought of her cousin. She really missed her. Actually, not her, but her cousin's sweetheart. It's just that Yra was used to seeing her cousin's sweetheart with her cousin, so mentioning her cousin is equivalent to thinking about her cousin's sweetheart. 

Anyway, this current Emperor, Yra was really afraid of him. Because he was the type to sacrifice anything. She even wondered how the Emperor became like that, having such wonderful and loving parents...'just as I thought. This world really has a problem.'

...

After walking such long corridors, and climbing such long and tall stairs, Yra entered her room together with Milo and Doti, while Yra made Sir Irus rest for the night. Irus didn't need to guard the door of her room since no one really wanted to come here.

Even in her room, Yra still needs to maintain her indifferent expression while enduring her exhaustion. 

Although these two maids have taken care of her since she was young, Yra still can't trust them. Who knew, maybe they were a spy from one of her siblings. 

Anyway, Doti helped Yra take off her clothes, while Milo proceeded to prepare her bath. 

Few minutes later, Milo came out. She bowed to Yra then said, "Princess, your bath is ready." 

Yra entered the bathroom, and the two retreated outside. 

Yra didn't like being served in the bath. Specifically, she didn't like people to look at her naked body. Yra didn't like it because she was a modern person, but the original, of course has deeper reasons. And it was connected to her deep secrets as well. 

Yra walked to the bath, the whole room was shrouded with steam. It felt warm, and she felt relaxed. 

As she slowly stepped forward, Yra removed her silk bathrobe she wore after taking off her dress. Her golden hair, free from all restraint, flows down from her back. They looked fluffy and lush, as they bounced as she walked. And as the bathrobe completely fell out of her body, her hair swayed, and her small build was completely revealed. 

Milky white skin, plump and soft touched the steamy air of the bathroom. Her cute little toes curled up, as she stepped on the warm tiles, looking so comfortable. She then approached the bathtub and sat on the edge of it. Yra stretched out her hand and dipped her finger into the water, testing the temperature of her bath water.

Letting out a sigh of relief, Yra completely submerged her hand in the water. Then move her hand, and played with the rose petals floating in the bathtub. 

Feeling satisfied, she took her hands away, then brushed her hair with her hands, gathering them in left shoulder, revealing her petite back. 

She bowed down, preparing herself to soak for a while, completely revealing one of the secrets she desperately wanted to hide. 

Yra has a pair of wings tattooed on her back. The wings were formed using a drawing of complicated symbols. The pair of wings were very beautiful and were engraved very delicately. The color of the wings was also special. It was gold, no, more like the color of the sun when it was at its peak. It was a bright yellow, with a hint of golden hues. 

"Ah~"

Soaking inside the warm water, Yra completely relaxed her expression, and smiled refreshingly. Then she began to sing an anime song she thought would really suit this relaxing atmosphere. 

After her bath, Yra dried her body up, and wore the bathrobe she discarded on the floor. Both Milo and Doti came in after Yra had given her permission. 

Mio was carrying Yra's night dress, while Doti stood to the side and helped Milo dress Yra, who was dressing in a partition, from time to time. When everything was finished, Yra dismissed the two of them and she finally threw herself in her own bed. 

But after laying on it for a while, Yra got up slightly annoyed.

She walked out of her own bed and sat on the floor filled with carpet, while hugging a blue pillow. 

She was upset.

"...f*ck! What a troublesome thing to do."

She bent her body forward, squashing the pillow in her arms, then took a deep breath. When she released her breath, huge wings then emerged from her back. 

Her wings were really huge, much larger than a petite body frame of a child. Nevertheless, Yra didn't seem bothered about the weight of her huge wings. She spread her wings, then closed it. She spread them again, then flapped it several times before spreading it again, then closing them again. She was doing this action several times until she stopped. 

Yra moped around the floor before she sighed and closed her eyes. Her brain moved, thinking about something, all the while, her wings unconsciously moved based on her mood swings. Both her wings spread widely, then gathered forward in a defensive stance, shielding Yra from the outside world. 

Yra felt warmth enveloping her whole body. Then something soft touched her skin. She knew it was her wings. 

But just thinking about her wings made her stomach ache come back. She gripped the pillow tightly and hugged it closer to her stomach. 

"Shucks...I hate this kind of plot..."

From the very beginning, when Yra learned about this body's secret, she wondered if the original owner's age was not actually her real age. After all, Yra has yet to undergo the Gift Manifestation Ceremony. 

In other words, Yra shouldn't have her wings yet.

That's right. Yra wasn't human. In fact, there aren't any humans in this world. More like, they didn't exist. 

In this world, the one who occupies the top of the food chain is the Celestials. 

This is why it's a shame for anyone to have any kind of fear towards heights, after all, Celestials all have wings, and they can fly. 

In fact, the Gift Manifestation Ceremony is an awakening ceremony of the wings. 

According to Yra's research, Celestial was born with wings, but that was before. She doesn't know what happened, but in the current era, children need some sort of stimulus to awaken their wings. 

And the wings are the source of power to the Celestials. 

It's like this– 'Faith' is the energy, while the 'wings' is the container of that energy. Meanwhile, 'Faith' came from the 'belief'. 

The stronger your belief is, the stronger the faith. And the more power of faith you have the larger wings you have. 

Just looking at her super huge wings, Yra felt complicated. 

After the wings are awakened, a tattoo mark on the back will appear. It will appear whenever one retracts their wings, and it will disappear after they call upon their wings again. 

Also, wings are like DNA, like fingerprints. There was never a completely identical pair of wings ever. 

Yra's wings are huge. And her feathers were big as well. More so, the individual feathers are really beautiful. Her feathers have rounder tips instead of those pointy ones. Every hair on her feathers were soft, shiny and silky. Additionally, they were warm. Maybe it was because of her gift that made her wings stay warm like this.

Speaking of gifts, A person's gift is related to the color of their wings. The purer the color the better. 

The color of Yra's wings is pure yellowish with golden sparkles all over, like the color of the tattoo on her back. And just based on the color of her wings, Yra's gift was totally obvious.

It was light.

She has a gift of light.

Sighing, Yra made her wings disappeared. Big rounded shaped feathers flew away and vanished into gold dust. Her back glowed bright then it slowly dimmed. 

Yra stretched her neck, feeling troubled about tomorrow, then finally gave up thinking and went back to bed and sleep.

Anyway, let's gamble everything tomorrow.

...

Yra went back to her bed, trying to sleep. But she can't sleep. 

She was nervous for tomorrow, and at the same time the scene from the dinner keeps appearing in her mind.

In such a wonderful place that could be called sceneric, a gathering of royalty was being held. Yra sat quietly on her seat, minding her own business– no more like, trying her best to stitch together her brain hole. 

After successfully enduring her otaku tendencies, and regaining her calm, Yra was immediately greeted by the Emperor's call.

"Princess Yra Astera Asaeveth."

Yra was scared that she almost made a blunter. Fortunately, she was trained by her cousin's northern cold winds everyday in her past life, and she was already immune to this kind of tense atmosphere.

When the Emperor's deep cold voice sounded, the already quiet atmosphere stagnated even more. Both Queen Minea and Queen Quan Yuhan glanced at her at the same time. Their eyes filled with indifference, were hiding in their contempt and gloating. The twins– Prince Adrianne and Prince Aidanne– laughed at her secretly, enjoying her misfortune. On the other hand, Princess Zephyr just glanced at her, but she looked away quickly. 

Seeing their different reactions, Yra, who planned to be a ninja with low presence– who can disappear without anyone noticing nor anyone seeing– was already shouting desperately in her heart.

'You are not my Claude-sama! Maybe your the older one! You must be Anastacius! Do you know Anastacius! His name is the boy version of Anastasia! Really a villain! Can't you just let this mob eat peacefully! Waaahhhh! Why do you have to call!? Why do you remember my name ah?! I bet you don't even know that your daughter is death!!'

And for the last time, Yra raised a middle finger in her heart. 

After calming down her raging heart, Yra raised her hand, then touched her forehead with her index finger, and then she lowered her hand towards her abdomen, followed by touching her left shoulder then the right shoulder– gesturing the sign of the cross. 

They said that this could drive away the devil. Maybe by doing this Yra could somehow drive away the evil ghost that made this Emperor remember her name. 

Of course, the people in the dining hall didn't know what she just did. Thet looked at her as if she was stupid. The twins even let out a snicker, but were glared at by their mother. Meanwhile the Emperor didn't even look at her, but no one spoke, as if everyone was waiting for her to respond to the Emperor's call.

Sighing, Yra slowly turned her head to look at the Emperor. She answered: "Yes, father."

Who knows, maybe the sign of the cross really worked, the Emperor looked at her once and then lowered his eyes to look at his plate. He acted as if saying that he didn't care about her, then said: "Tomorrow is the Gift Manifestation Ceremony, you carried the name of Asaeveth. Don't let me down."

'Oh. So in other words, "don't shame me" am I right? Tsk. Tsk. Tsk. Such simple words, do you really need to even say that surname even if I can't remember how to spell?'

Yra was about to answer him, but this Emperor, after looking at his empty plate, just turned his head to look at his other children talking to them with more words. 

Yra was almost choked on the words she was about to say. She couldn't help but suddenly close her mouth, afraid that she would let out a sound. But this abrupt action made her bite her tongue. She exclaimed, instinctively stretched her hand to hold her mouth. Although Yra tried to endure and not make a sound, her movements still attracted the people from other chairs, especially the twins who were paying attention to her. 

It was nothing actually. After the two Queens gave her a glare and the twins throw a laughed at her, nothing happened.

That's it. After that, Yra finally managed to get into her role as a ninja and became a shadow master, no maybe Ura totally became the air. 

The Emperor first stood up and walked out, and he was followed by the two Queens. And of course, behind the two Queens were their children. 

Then "bam", the door closed with Yra barely eating anything from the table. 

After everyone left, Yra quickly stuffed her mouth with food. Actually the food was really delicious, more delicious than instant noodles and the junk food Yra always ate in her previous life. She always eats cold and hard food since she transmigrated. Maybe the food she eats is actually a servant food, but well, Yra really doesn't care. 

Still this was Yra's first time eating warm and delicious food in this world. And they are really a delicacy.

Thinking about that delicious dessert she ate at that table after those people were gone, Yra couldn't help but drool. 

Then she thought of many delicious foods to eat after she became free. She became excited and drool even more. 

She is a foodie okay!

So tomorrow in the Gift Manifestation Ceremony, Yra will initiate the "Protect Yra's Vest" operation. 

And her own Gift of Light is just the best way to do it. 

After all, the eyes perceive light to see. 'Hehehe, don't worry my Daddy Emperor, I won't shame you! It's just that, kekeke....don't expect a child of light to emerge in this generation! This mob will always be a mob! Just wait for my performance tomorrow.'

With a smile on her face, Yra finally succumbed to sleep and met with sandman.
