Chapter 7 : Never Falter

Chapter 7 : Never Falter

After Cass left the room,i to bed for a quick nap.

After waking up from my nap and i tried to get ready as a girl.

I did whatever a girl would do to get ready. However with the brainwash part of me gone for me to autopilot, I had to do everything myself using memories to guide me. It felt weird doing all these girly things using my memories. Before i gained back full control, i had just autopilot my body,letting my body do whatever it needs to do, but now i have to do it all myself physically. It felt unnatural and natural at the same time.

It was natural as if i did it hundred of times before but it also felt unnatural in the sense that i had to think deeply of what step i should do next and how i should do it.

After finishing my morning necessities, I took off my nightwear and switch to an attire fit for travel.

When i reached the dining area, i saw that everything was already set with a servant standing by the side.

“Prepare to leave,after breakfast,i will be leaving immediately” i commanded the servant as i eat my meal.

The servant left to heed my command, I could hear the bustling commotion in the background as i continue eating. I could see some of the servants having a quick breakfast before hurrying to preparing to leave. It was most likely that all of them had not eaten yet and were waiting for me to start. This gave me a sense of power, a sense of superiority over everyone.

Is this how those elites feel everyday? Feeling that everything is beneath them?

After i finish eating,i went out of the house. I could see that everything were already set up, everyone in their position waiting for my command to leave.

With a simple nod,i entered the large vehicle. From my memories, i found out that this vehicle was called Royal Carrier, used to escort VIPs. It looked similar as the vehicle before but this was purple and white in colour. It also had a symbol with a Red sword held by two beasts. From my memories of beasts and animals,i found out that the beast were called Azure Winged Lion. I guessed that the symbol was the insignia of the royal family.

After i entered the carrier, it took off to the west gate of Wall Er to leave district 1 and enter district 2.

We went through the same customs as before though the gate was less spectacularly designed as the previous gate.

District 2 was what i would described as neat and orderly. Houses were side by side,no space wasted. There were no expansive or grand in this area. Unlike district 1 or the capital, houses in district 2 were barely decorated at all. The number of apartments outnumbered houses heavily. This was so to allow more people to live here.

If i were to describe all the districts, i would say that the capital was like heaven, It was a place where one could have everything. District one was like a rich man's playground, it felt lavish and rich. District two would be a commoner’s home, nothing fancy but still nice enough to live comfortably. District three though who be akin to hell. It was a place where even the enforcers would rarely go. Even those who went there would feel dread. District one was stricken with poverty and illness.

As the carrier went through the district, it garnered a lot of attention. It was quite rare to see such an expansive carrier in such a place as district two.

Sometime after, we went by a very familiar place. It was a two story house, it was decorated simply but nicely giving off a feeling that whoever lived there was a person riched enough to live wealthy in district two but too poor to live in district one.

This tale has been unlawfully lifted from Royal Road. If you spot it on Amazon, please report it.

This house was my home. It was the house where me and my family used to lived happily when they were alive. I would always remember the times when i was young where i would play with my mother. I was a mischievous kid when i was young, always pulling pranks on my big sister and my mother and father would scold for it.

But after my mom died, things didn’t went as bad as other might have thought it would. My sister and father stayed strong and took care of me. Give me love and affection that i would have missed from my mother. Though that only lasted until i was 14 when my father died too. That was the start of my anxiety problems.

Both my parents died from an infamous illness known as mana pollution. It was said to be an incurable disease with a fatal rate of 100% but now i knew that it wasn’t true. It was indeed curable as i sweep through my memories. This disease was easily curable but the Legion did not want to give out the cure. To keep the overpopulation down in district two, the Legion lied to the masses and silenced all doctors who could cure it there. The Legion purposefully allowed the disease to run rampant so that it could dwindle down the population in district two.

Curse them! If they had allowed more people to be able to enter the capitol and district one, we would not be facing overpopulation in the first place.  If they did that ,my mother and father would still be here today.

Curse them to hell! One day, i will slay them and pull them down their high horse.

Just you wait, Legion, just you wait.

The one person who you tried to brainwash and used will be the one person who will end you.

Such irony.

After a while, we got the the south west gate of Wall San. The gate looked like just a big heavy metal door, just like the theme of this district.

We went through the same customs as before and soon we were on the other side.

I could immediately see the difference between the two districts. The road and payment on both sides of the street were dirty, unkempt, sticking up through the tarmac and in places slabs were various trees. The buildings were run down, only one in six maybe seven looked as if was being looked after by the landlords or the inhabitants. Even on the side streets that joined the main road, it looked very much the same. The pavements and roads were broken up or in the process of breaking up. They had potholes in or the tarmac had worn way and the surface beneath was visible.

Unlike district two where people clamour to get a glimpse of us, people here all ran away. Most likely due to the fear of u, they must be afraid that such a glamorous carrier that doesn’t necessarily belong here would bring them heaps of trouble.

Most of dumpsters and wheelie bins were overflowing with rubbish. There were many people living by the streets with big cardboard box. I presumed that they were homeless judging by their attire and state of well being. If the Legion cared enough, many people here could be given a home and warm food but those snobby rich elites were too busy caring about their big fancy gardens and lavish attires. They would never care about district three. This was a place where they trimmed the population by letting them rot and kill themselves via drugs.

However, the one thing that surprised and disgusted me the most were the number of pregnant women in heavy makeup and revealing outfits by the road. Life was tough for many here, there were many who have to sell themselves just so they could have a next meal.

Seeing this place made my face turned into ratchet frown that didn’t fit my beautiful face.

One day,Legion, one day you will fall and i’ll be there to watch it burn to pieces.

After some time,we reach the south west gate of Wall Si.

I had expected by the trend that the gate would be in theme with the district that the wgate would be shabby. But to my surprise, it was enormous. It was 100 meters tall and had a huge amount of automated sentry gun placed all around the gate. The gate was thick steel with an energy shield surrounding it.

I should have expected this. How could they protect the people and keep people locked in if the gate was small and shabby. It must be big and frightening to scared people off from even thinking about trying to see what’s outside.

We did our usual customs and the huge gate opened.

After the gate opened, the carrier passed through the gate and onto the outside world, the outlands.

We’re OUTSIDE!

Outside the city!

Outside in the outlands!

My knees slid out from under me and I ended up huddled in the corner of my seat with my eyes shut tight.

This is really it, i can no longer return till i have finished my mission. From now on,i am all alone in the outside world.

I have passed the gate where i can no longer returned.

Cass will not be able to find me, the resistance not be helping me unless i am in dire needs. I will have to do everything myself. There will one i can turn to for help.

From this moment on, i am Princess Anna Val Iranda, daughter of the emperor of Iranda, Ranford Val Iranda, sister of the crowned prince Azir Val Iranda.

I am a 13 year old year girl.

I have to be fully in character twenty four seven.

From this moment onwards,there is no Tate, there is only Anna.

I will do whatever it takes to get my revenge, even if it means that i have to be Anna for years.

No matter what, i will never falter, i will not allow myself to succumb to fear.

I am now a princess, full of power and i will use it to its full advantage to achieve my goals.

Just wait and watch ,Legion, one day i’ll be back and you will burn to the grounds by the own monster you created.
