Second Reincarnation: The Inept Prince Greatest Comeback

The Prince Second Reincarnation

A dull black and a white executioner block, a man soaked in blood were tied up in a guillotine. His ostentatious suit that showed his prestigious status was already stained with various dirt from some time ago. The enrage people shouted louder.

“Kill him!”

“A disgrace in the kingdom! You’re the reason why my family is dead!”

“Kill that corrupt prince!”

“We almost lost to war because of your indecisiveness! Die!”

Sticks and stones are hurled towards the prince. Even though he is bleeding vividly, no one seems to care about him anymore. They only threw rage-fueled curses towards him.

“Are there any last statements you would like to make?”

The King stood in front of the execution site. He only held contempt towards the person who was his brother. Then he spoke with a cool voice.

“Your inactivity, stupidity, sluggish, immature actions only caused ruins to our great nation. Therefore, to repent of those sins. You will be sentenced to death. But as a merciful king, I will grant you your last words or sentences that you would like to tell everyone present here.”

After hearing that, his eyes grew fiercely instead of remorse. The reason is that there is a conspiracy committed by the king and to escape from it. He fabricated evidence and pointed it towards him. Wrong decisions that lead the country into ruin. Even though he is just a prince. He played a major role in the development of the kingdom. However, he’s inept was the opportunity grabbed by the king, and blamed everything for his poor decisions.

And the thing that he hated the most is that the King stole his fiancee which is now the Queen of the kingdom. With his rugged and stifled voice. He gathered every inch of his energy from within his body and threw a statement that put the execution in trance.

“What the King has said to all of you is nothing but lies! A fabricated, brainwashing lie! All of his claims supported by substantial evidence are easily fabricated! You even stole my wife you b***h! Now that it has come to this, my only last sentence to you is...It will haunt you in the future.”

“Lies? You’ve lost your chance to make the citizens here feel remorse about you.” He said coldly.

“Atone your sins in hell!”

The king coldly demanded. The eerie guillotine blade fell on her neck.

The scene has changed.

It was nothing compared to the last scene that he has before. The scene changed into what seems to be an office with a NASA logo painted on the wall.

“Hey, Thomas!” His colleague called, “Have you ever have a chance to send me those rocket blueprints”

Thomas, who was once a prince, turned towards his colleague.

“Yep, I already sent it yesterday”

“You’re the best” He joyously replied and went back to his desk.

Thomas looked at his watch and saw the time that made him shocked slightly.

“f**k, I’m late.”

He hurriedly turned off his computer and snatched his identification card. He headed to the door, grabbing a trench coat from a clothes hanger on his way out.

The night had already darkened considerably, but the extravagant street lights were still bright. He drove towards one of the prestigious hospitals in Texas. That’s right, not only was he a NASA engineer, he is also a renowned doctor in the state.

Thomas has already been doing it since eight years ago. Graduated from one of the prestigious schools from an early age due to his keen intellect thanks to his maturity in his past life. He took advantage of it and decided to climb up in the ranking. He is a surgeon and also one of the board members. He serves as the head of the hospital’s surgical department, and then later.

40 years in this modern life which is obviously different from his past life, he took this world’s modern wisdom in case that he’ll return to his previous life. Be it anything including engineering, sciences, chemistry, medicine, biology et cetera. In doing so, he attained four Ph. Ds in different fields utilizing every modern knowledge in this world.

Arriving at the hospital, he was paged and called immediately. There was a patient in critical condition that is beyond saving. Thomas stepped in immediately and began changing his outfit into a surgeon's outfit.

Entering the operating room, he saw familiar faces. It was his self-proclaimed rival who boasted his medical achievements to him. The doctors are clueless to what they should do next which is evidently seen as they stood still around the patient’s whose

The chief of the operation began to fall on the ground as if he lost consciousness. Everyone was worried and began to group around the chief. It seems like he was paralyzed.

“Chief? Do you hear me?

“I’ll give oxygen. Doctor.”

Then it was that moment! The doctors turned towards him with a relieved expression. They are thankful that the legend in the surgical field has come to the doorstep. Their faces lit up as if he was their savior.

“Tell me about his condition!” He demanded.

“Unconscious. Left side paralysis observed.”

“Get a stretcher and fast! There may be a possibility of a stroke. Contact Neurosurgery and do a CT scan immediately!” Thomas ordered as he knew the flow of the situation. He remained calm until. Due to the chief's old age, there may be a possibility that his health is not being taken care of. But he admired his competency towards him.

“You. the anesthesiologist. Vitals.”

“Blood pressure is below 60 over immeasurable. A heart rate of 170.”

The anesthesiologist said fluidly and Thomas glanced at the surgeon who seems to be the chief’s first assistant. His hand holds a scalpel with an intention to continue surgery.

If Thomas wasn’t here continuing the surgery is dangerous

“You, assistant.”

The first assistant is trembling, he doesn’t know what to do. It was a sudden misfortune that the Chief will collapse at the operation. The alarm blares in a monotonous tone telling them that the patient is in danger.

“It’s just you here, so you’re the first assistant.”

Thomas walked towards his position but the assistant denied hesitantly that he should be the one to continue the surgery despite his trembling body.

But, Thomas shoved him aside with his elbow.

“Don’t touch him with those gloves, Everyone, hold up!”

The doctors present in the operating room raised their hands incredulously.

“Ventilate the room as much as possible. Hurry!”

“Yes.”

“Anesthesiologist, take one ampule of epinephrine. Administer it in the trachea from the tube.”

The anesthesiologist followed his orders and then a nurse came up in the operating room with a tray in her hand that contained gloves on it.

“Everyone changes their gloves. Hurry!”

Everyone began changing their gloves.

“Administer steroid with an IV when you finish.”

…

“First, detach the adhesions. Metzenbaum scissors.”

Thirty minutes later, the patient began stabilizing. Thanks for the inhumane skills of Thomas who took the operation. It ended splendidly and flawlessly.

“We will proceed to abdominal closure. 3/0 absorbable suture.”

…

“Blood lost amount?”

“200 ccs” The anesthesiologist reported.

“Before the patient wakes up, administer 100ml of steroid.”

“Okay, we’re finished.”

The operation ended flawlessly.

One week later. He was on his way to the American Surgical Association to briefly discuss his newly invented procedure. While en-route with his latest Lamborghini Urus. He received a phone call from one of his colleagues Billy, who have come across three new potential surgeries. Including a thirty-five-year-old Air Force colonel who had crushed his lower spine in some kind of experimental armor and a sixty-eight-year-old woman with an advanced brain stem glioma. After turning down the first two which he deemed below him, Strange eventually showed interest in a schizophrenic who had been struck by lightning.

As Thomas took his eyes off the road to view the patient’s records, becoming interested in the x-ray Billy had sent him. Distracted yet fascinated at the x-ray. He never thought of watching carefully on the road. And in an instant, he collided with an upcoming truck in the opposite lane. His car was sent flying straight off the road rolling in the side of the mountain and crashing in the nearby riverbank. Trapped in the wreckage of the car, Thomas lays in utter agony and eventually loses his consciousness.

“Will, I experience death again for a second time” Those are the words he said before passing out.

He loses too much blood and death awaits him. If he just drives carefully instead of looking at the x-ray. He might have been alive. Feeling a deep regret for his actions. He prayed to God and mouth a prayer before passing out.

“God, if you were to give me again a second life...I will definitely never let this thing happen again! I will be mindful on the road, I will not criticize my colleagues badly. Please, God, I don’t even have a family in my past and present life… Is this really going to end?”

♣♣♣♣♣♣♣♣♣♣♣♣♣♣♣♣♣♣♣♣♣♣♣♣♣♣♣♣♣♣♣♣♣♣♣♣♣♣♣♣♣♣♣♣♣♣♣♣♣♣♣♣♣♣♣♣♣♣♣♣♣♣

“...!”

He burst his eyes wide open. He found himself lying on the bed.

“It was a dream again huh? Thank you, God, I will definitely keep my eye on the road from now on.”

Feeling energetic, he tried to rise up on his bed but it was no use. He also found that he is in an odd situation. His body is small, his arms and feet are small similar to the average kid. He explored the room with his eyes and found out that it was different from his expensive condominium.

Based on the designs of the furniture laid throughout his room, he concluded that it was similar to a medieval age era.

Not convinced, he rubbed his eyes again to confirm and validate it. And then he comes to a realization. This was his old room in his previous world.

He looked down at his body to validate it again. The last thing he remembered was that he got caught in a deadly accident. But he was definitely alive and in a very familiar body at that! He sighed deeply and looked at the mirrors as if he couldn’t believe he was seeing. With blonde short hair and a doll-like face.

The second prince of the kingdom of Brittia. Prince Gerald Stuart.

He had returned to the body belonging to his first life.

“What is happening?”

She sighed deeply. She was absolutely sure that Thomas Miller was dead. He was killed in a car accident. There was no doubt about that but when he opened his eyes he had returned to this body from the first life. Not only was it his previous body but it was when he was 8 years old.

With that, he shook his head.

“Whatever. The important thing is that I’m alive and God listened to my dying wish.” He said proudly.

But, how did he get into a bed in the first place? Let’s recap. At the royal palace, he was tasked to guide the daughter of Duke Belmont. His goal is to guide the princess around the royal palace gardens.

Meeting the princess for the first time, her pristine white hair and light violet eyes were so beautiful that it was like an angel face. She was so calm and composed that you wouldn’t think that she was an eight-year old child. He fell in love at the moment he laid his eyes off on her, and single-mindedly stuck himself close to the princess. Since he was a spoiled child before, he did not care about bothering others or whatsoever. Then, since he was the princess so closely, he finally got too close and fell on her. The falling momentum was not a big deal, but...the location was bad. There is an ornamental rock garden right before them and hits his head there strongly. He hit his forehead and apparently was spouting quite a large amount of blood. All of the prince’s servants accompanying them were in a panic.

However, to him, something such as his blood was no problem whatsoever. Anyhow, the shock had caused his modern life’s memories to return. The previous he was Thomas Miller M.D, Ph.D. A renowned doctor, engineer, and scientist in the modern world. This meant that in the current eight-year old’s memories and mind. 43 years old worth of modern knowledge came flooding in. Frankly speaking, he thought his head would short-circuit. The stunned prince was taken to the infirmary for treatment and then deported to the prince Gerald quarters right after.

After that, He kept having feverish nightmares for the next seven days.

♣♣♣♣♣♣♣♣♣♣♣♣♣♣♣♣♣♣♣♣♣♣♣♣♣♣♣♣♣♣♣♣♣♣♣♣♣♣♣♣♣♣♣♣♣♣♣♣♣♣♣♣♣♣♣♣♣♣♣♣♣♣

Seven days later, somehow both the fever and the memories settled down, and he was finally able to get out of bed. Then somehow, to such an exalted person like him, the Princess had come to inquire about his well-being. It seems that the princess was concerned about him that could barely get out of his bed and visited his bedroom.

“Hello, how are you feeling now, Prince Gerald?”

The duke’s daughter gave him the honor of her angelic face and voice. He was lost on cloud nine. Ahh, such a beautiful angel-like her pampering him. It feels like his fever instantly cured.

But his cute expression turned into a gloomy one. Because the girl in front of him was his fiancée, stolen by the first prince that was the king that executed him. The hatred feelings towards his brother began to swell as it was to burst. However, he needs to act like a child. The man who regained his forty-three years of memory would never entertain the idea of love with an angel eight-year-old girl. However, Princess Catarina healed him just by looking at the adorable appearance of an angel. Naturally, this would have been his reaction according to his previous life. While appreciating the thought, Princess Catarina turned towards him with a clouded face.

“I really am so very sorry. To have you injured your face…”

It seems that Princess Catarina was bowing her head for some reason.

In the first place, it was because of his single-mindedly following closely that caused the fall, and because he caused bloodshed at the lovely royal palace garden...He said and truly felt.

“No, no, no. it is I who should be saying sorry.” He replied in a hurried calculated response.

He probably might answer her in a mature manner but if he does that. There may be a suspicion that arises. He needs to act like an eight-year-old child who is ignorant of this world.

“Please raise your head, Princess Catarina. This incident is entirely my fault alone. Rather, since it is multiplied by the convenience of your personal assistant and mine. I must go and apologize to them once I fully healed.”

And when he admirably lowered his head, the princess had an extremely surprised face.

Thinking about why that so, He remembered that he was still a selfish prince when he met the princess. By the way, these surprising features of him after these seven days were all rage amongst their palace servants. The prince that was raised like a flower was an arrogant prince even at home acting like a spoiled child and had always conducted himself arrogantly.

Looking at the princess, it was a pity that she was stolen by his brother. Who is completely opposite of Gerald. He is smart, wise, decisive, while Gerald was a stupid, arrogant, and spoiled child. The first prince was adorned by many princesses and ladies. He can potentially build up his harem if he wants to. But, when he laid his eyes off on Princess Catarina. He was determined that she would take her no matter what barrier might erupt. Unfortunately for Gerald, eight years later he successfully conquered the heart of princess Catarina. Leaving his heartbreaking grief.

The king died nine years later. The first prince took the throne due to his competitiveness akin to the former king. Gerald, who was inept at academics, couldn't find a decent role in the royal family. And therefore, drags the family in shame to his mischievousness. He was hated by the girls, no one seemed to care about him at that time. But, when the first prince took the throne things began to go bad. He’s not the man who the citizens of the kingdom think he was. Losing at the pandemic, wars, and in international politics theater... He needs to find an escape from his action. He took Gerald as an emergency exit of his indecisiveness and blamed all the misfortunes of the kingdom on him.

To describe him, George compared him to an average guy who is just good at academics but bad in real life.

It also leads to his death, to prevent that. He only needs to do one thing. To compete for the throne and become the new king of Brittia. The King died due to an unknown disease. If he were to find out the cause of it. Then his popularity would skyrocket, the citizens would favor him more. The nobility will support him and lastly, he can be together with Princess Catarina.

Now that he is back to his previous life, he thought of a plan that will ensure his great comeback. But before that, he needs to entertain the princess who was looking at him blankly. He ignored her for some time while pondering in his thoughts.

“Sorry, Princess Catarina did you say something…”

“I haven’t” She repulsed immediately and she was completely displeased. Those words were like a knife piercing his fragile heart.

“I’m sorry please…” He pleaded.

“Don’t worry your Highness, you just need to recover from your injury right? Then I will take my leave and return once you are fully healed.”

Those words of reassurance made George flustered. It was like an angel forgiving his sins.

“Thank you for your compassionate words, my Lady, then I would have my royal guards to escort you from your house so I can assure your safety.”

“Thank you for the offer but I already have my personal attendants covered. I will be okay please think first about your injury first.”

“I will.”

♣♣♣♣♣♣♣♣♣♣♣♣♣♣♣♣♣♣♣♣♣♣♣♣♣♣♣♣♣♣♣♣♣♣♣♣♣♣♣♣♣♣♣♣♣♣♣♣♣♣♣♣♣♣♣♣♣♣♣♣♣♣

Everyone seems to have left the room leaving George alone. He clenched his fist as he thought of a way on how to avoid his doom and to retake Princess Catarina. His eyes are determined and at the moment he regains his strength, he will do the planning.

The comeback of Prince George Stuart will begin his journey. Again.
