55 Rest Well

"Indeed, your family included must never know of such things, why I said this to you because I fear that if you tell any of your family members they might come to this inclusion… you know full well why he must not be revealed or should I say it out loud" said the Headmaster with a serious tone.

"Indeed. Lest that he dies before his time" she replied with a look filled with complexity.

"What do you mean?" said Lady Akari when she heard that

"Don't worry, I will not tell anyone" replied Lady Lissandra "I owe him my life. I won't be so little to reveal his secret, however, he too must know that my family's power shall not be handed to anyone without a fight, I shall remain silent on this yet he must know that if he ever dares stand in our family's way, he shall not be tolerated." She said

"Can someone please explain to me what is going on!" shouted lady Lissandra.

"The Conqueror… of the royal family, he was our ancestor." Said Lady Lissandra. "Before he turned… to that… he was a normal man with a family and a home. Once he reigned supreme and defeated the singularity, he became loved and some even wors.h.i.+ped him. This place was nothing but a small town, with the protection of the Conqueror it grew and they elected him their king. After he survived the calamity and pushed it back. The people revered him and all took it to heart that the Conqueror is their rightful ruler. However few words from him left them dazed, these words are still told to every generation from the first king. The calamity shall come once again, a thousand years later, once the red star pa.s.ses, it shall signal the birth of the singularity. Five years after it the gates of h.e.l.l shall open and the calamity shall come once again."

Taking a deep breath Lady Lissandra then said

"The calamity that we all fear is due these years. And of yet we still have no signs of people strong enough to compare to the Conqueror of legends, thus this school was erected to create people strong enough to defend the land without the need of someone of old myths. Yet it seems that this boy here… if he truly is wielding the conqueror's book… rumors might spread, people might think he is the rightful ruler and the n.o.bles might split. Some will try to entice him to take the rule so that they become stronger. Many will try to lure him to their homes, groom him then use him to their agendas… these thoughts might become of great trouble to our country, and I will not allow anyone to trouble father's reign" she said

"Huh? I understand your fear, but… shouldn't you be saying your brother's reign? I know for a fact that your father will soon elect one of his children to be the next heir, and clearly, it shall not be you. Pardon the words, so why not say your brother's reign?" she said

Lady Lissandra could only smile as she said

"Indeed, I feel indebted to father for raising me, and truly I would love to see him govern, however, if the rule falls down to brother's hands… I really won't have any will to stop him… no" said Lady Lissandra as she pondered a bit

"Hmm, interesting, right." Said Lady Lissandra as a smile grew on her face. "It seems that if he truly is the one that holds the conqueror's legacy… it might actually work… Alright, Listen Lady Akari. This is a vow I swear, if indeed this boy is the one that is ent.i.tled to the conqueror's legacy, I shall claim him as my husband." She said

"What?!!!" replied the girl, while the headmaster could only chuckle thinking how truly blessed this child was.

"W-what do you mean husband? He- he is, euhh he is a servant! You can't be thinking of him as suitable" said Lady Akari a bit fl.u.s.tered

"Oh, and I thought that you of the house Ling treated your Servants better than that"

"We do! We do!: but why? I mean no, what do you mean your husband!" lady Akari could only speak jumbled words as she was fl.u.s.tered and unable to think properly.

"Why not, if he truly has the Conqueror's legacy, then he will be the one with the most influence in this world. Not even kings can oppose him, I better take the chance as long as I have it. Do you feel jealous though? You are a bit too embarra.s.sed if I remember correctly you have a fiance right?" said Lady Lissandra in a teasing manner

"J-jealous? Me?! No! I have a fiance indeed, right, right… you can do whatever you want, I don't care.. husband! Unbelievable" said Lady Akari as she turned to look at Basara

"And here I was worried about you! Humph!" she said as she stormed out.

The boy was still in pain, but the two remaining in the room could only smile.

"Lady Lissandra, your words right now you should know they hold a lot of weight. Are you sure about this?"

"I don't really know, but this is the best way. Becoming an enforcer might reduce the influence of my family on me, however, they will still control my movement to an extent… becoming the ruling queen, however… that is a different story altogether. It seems that fate brought us both together. I hope that you can inform Basara of this. I will be needing to head to the capital in the following days, I will have to miss the first courses. I need something from our household." She said as she left in a hurry.

The veins on the boy's body began to recede, more and more. And his creamed became duller as he finally fell unconscious.

The headmaster looked at the snot and tear-filled face of Basara and said in a humorous way

"May you rest well, your highness" then left the room with a smirk on his face.
