So apparently I was reincarnated as the 3rd prince of the Mearis Empire,One of the most powerful allied human empire’s in gilgamesh.But that meant nothing the other races They all saw us as inferior being..just potential slaves or livestock. The worst part is, even after being born i didn't see much of my father if any at all, the only times i've seen him is when he sits upon his throne with a dead stare as if nothing mattered to him or when he offers hos comfort to the people of the empire, otherwise he took no interest in me as a son, instead all that interest and attention went to my older siblings, my two brothers and my sister. Saul, Amelia and Troy, this was due to their Jobs being powerful.
Paladin, Arch Mage, Arch Priest and me..i was nothing special...They said i was blessed with no Job when we went to the priest of the capital Church of Mearis to find out what it was, so i became the shame of the royal family.
My mother was a Maid servant whom served the Queen, but my father the king lusted after her and one thing led to another, at least that's what i heard and due to this my siblings and the nobles of the Castle hate us, So they disrespect me in every way possible whenever they can, they would call out to me and make remarks.
"Look! It's the son of the whore"
"Worthless prince Raoul"
"It's a great misfortune that a Bastard was born into royalty"
"Truly disgusting sight you are child"
"Why don't you just die!!? It would save us all the trouble"
This had become the norm for me and i didn't really care, i had a new life and i wanted to make the most of it but i worried for my mother, though i had memories of my past mother, this woman now was my mother and it hurt me to the core that she had to endure this kind of torment day after day and my so called father would do nothing about it and just sat on his throne, i would help my mother with her duties around the castle as much as i possible could just to make her work easier she would often refuse my help but i still help the guards and the nobles seeing this would often glare in disgust as i helped my mother to clean but said nothing.
Things remained this way for a while, at least until that day mother accidentally broke a gift that was given to my older sister.
"You fucking whore!! How dare you!!"
"I-i-i'm sorry Princess Amelia...i-it was an accident"
"ACCIDENT??? YOU DID THIS ON PURPOSE!!"
"N-N-no it truly was an accident"
My mother kneeled face down pleading to my sister to forgive her but her cries were in vain, the same day the king called for all of us siblings including the nobles in the throne room. It seemed as if everyone was there, i walked in with my mother and looked around...disgust..that was the look on there faces and as i looked up to the king i saw my sister standing beside his throne smiling as if satisfied about something, my brothers stood side by side in their armor while my oldest brother held a sword before him as he glared.
"Mhmm..you have offended my child maid...how will you rectify this?"
"..W-what?"
I looked at father in confusion, this whole thing could not have been just because of the gift broken accidentally by my mother, my fathers expression remained unchanged and emotionless as i turned to my mother she was already down on her knee's pleading to him to forgive her. I looked at what was happening with shock, why is my mother apologizing for something she didn't do? I grit my teeth and look at my father.
"Please my king...forgive me...but it was an accident I didn't mean to..."
"So you are implying my daughter is a liar?"

"N-NO! your majesty i would never!"
"Then how do you plan to rectify this maid?"
"Is this some fucking Joke!? Is this your way of telling me to give up my right for the throne Father!!!" I shouted at him while clenching my fist.
"Haha he thinks he has a claim to the throne? He doesnt even have a Job!" The whispered while laughing.
"All of you in this room have never liked me nor my mother for as long as i can remember! And I've had enough of this! And you father...no...your no father..your nothing but a shallow man"
You could see the veins in the king's head pulse..as he glared at me in anger.
"Well i renounce my right to the throne, if this is what it means to be king i refuse to be a part of this" i held up my mother and pulled her to walk away but she would not move, even through all this suffering she still wanted to stay?...no..she was afraid.
From the corner of my eyes I saw my brother step forward lifting his sword as he came closer and closer, he pushed me with brute force sending me flying back into the throne room door almost losing consciousness.
I fought to stay conscious filled with nothing but rage, staggering as I stood up. I felt something splash against my face...
Bam!
Something hit the floor and rolled towards me..
A feeling of terror and grief consumed my entire being.
"No....no...no no no no no"
I lifted my head and saw my mothers body fall to the floor..and her head right in front of me...her face filled with fear..
"Where is all that talk now little brother? You were so convinced this would end well for you hahaha" Princess Amelia shouted.
The entire room was soon filled with laughter as they all mocked me.
My brother, unfazed by this, now pointed his sword towards me .
"Saul...I'm your brother...your own flesh and blood..why are you doing this?"
But Saul remained unphazed by my plea.
I glared at father thinking of nothing else but to end him, thinking of nothing else but to kill every last one of them...before I knew it my mind went blank, nothing but a loud ringing could be heard. My left hand started to lift on its own ..the ringing in my head getting louder and louder...
Raoul stood up and glared at his brother with eyes that were hollow and black, filled with nothing but resentment and hate.
Flash!
A massive amount of pressure came down in the room filling everyone with fear.
Saul looked at his brother surprised at what he was seeing.
"IMPOSSIBLE, How can he do this? He has no Skills much less a Job!!!"
The king trembled, Gnashing his teeth as he tried to stand, Amelia in Shock stumbled, backwards falling on her back, Troy even more surprised than anyone, even in fear put on an insidious smile, amazed at his younger brother’s power.
"K-kill him !!! Kill him now!!!"
"I swear on my dead Mother....my brothers..oolder sister..father.... as of now, this empire is my enemy, All of you are my enemies and I will lay waste to all of you in this room , for your sins against me and my mother...i will make you all suffer.."
In the blink of an eye Saul slashed at his brother, cutting off his left arm, Raoul jumped back trying to put distance between them Saul thrusted his sword towards Raoul piercing through his chest.
Raoul slowly came back to his senses as he spat up blood,
He looked at his brother with a look of pity, his brother enraged by this pulled out the sword from Raoul’s chest. Causing him to fall to his knees. Saul pulled out his short sword and slowly slit Raoul's throat.
"You will never lift a finger against us, you weak, pathetic brother of mine"
blood streaming from his neck and chest as his vision slowly faded. Raoul Fell to the ground his mothers head was now in his view. Tears streaming from his eye’s, Raoul gave his final smile to his mother before everything went completely dark.
"What should we do my lord? If the kingdom hears of this the repercussions will be disastrous. The king sat down and breathed a sigh of relief.
"It will be handled...worry not...Saul toss his bodies into the ocean make sure it won't wash back up ashore...Amelia you have some planning to do to explain why he is missing to the people once they start to ask questions, make it believable...Troy you take the maids body and burn it"
"Yes My Lord" they all said together and went on to carry out the King's orders.
A carriage left the Empire heading to the coastal town of Purgus, passing through the minor villages and the dark Forest, upon arriving, three knights and the 1st prince Saul exited the carriage with Raoul's body inside a straw bag, as they boarded the ship. the sailors started shouting and a horn was blown soon after they departed from the port town out into the Sea of Necron.
Sailing through the sea they went further and further away. Soon the port town was out of sight. They sailed for 7 days. Locating the deepest part of the ocean.
"This is far enough" Saul shouted as he went to retrieve his brother's body. Immerging from below the deck with the body over his shoulder, Saul walked to the taffrail and looked over into the sea.
"This shall be your resting place brother..maybe you'll have better luck in your next life"
Saul then threw Raoul's body into the Sea after tying a large anchor to it.
And watched as it sank deeper and deeper.
"Let's return Quickly...we're done here"
Raoul's body continued to sink deeper and deeper ,fading more and more away into the depths, leaving nothing behind except a trail of bubbles floating back to the surface.
