CHAPTER 1

Chapter 1: Rebirth

Seraphim,

"Lady Seraphim! you need to practice your dancing for your seventeenth birthday!" A lady running on my back shouted but I didn't give a damn and continued running towards the gates of this not so palace place.

First things first, the name is Elijah Mijares but since I am now a girl, they call me Lady Seraphim Katz and I hate it!

Just being a girl is too much for me!

"Sorry young lady but you're prohibited to go out." The other guard said while both of them stopped me by crossing their spears on my face. "The hell I care!" I punched the other man's stomach without even thinking that he is wearing a breastplate!

"No more running young lady." He grabbed me from my left arm, I tried to free myself but it was hopeless. Now, I am back in this room filled with artistic designs, sitting on this wooden chair, listening to this waltz music that have been playing on my head for the past week!

"You have to do it like this young lady." 

She grabbed her long cream skirt and hers should popped off with elegance. She swings around and round, her steps are in harmony with the melody of the songs being played. Out astonishment, I didn't realized I was drooling.

"You could make the crowd react as you do now if you'll learn the way of the dance." She winked and before stopping, she turned around three times on the same spot and as the last note of the song played, she bowed.

"Woah! that's amazing!" 

I clapped as loud as I could as I approach my teacher. She then smiled and pinched my cheeks then fixed my hair.

"Of course dear, your father didn't hire me for nothing." She said as she walked away from me, she's standing in front of me, hands on her back and a glamorous smile is fixated on her plum lips.

She's aged well.

"No, should we start over?" she asked and played the song again. I nodded aggressively as a lewd thought wonders on my mind.

Living as a man as I am, I very much appreciate to get the attention of everyone that I met or in any place that I attend.

That it'd make me cry if no one notices me!

"One, two, three, One." As she counts, she clapped her hands in accordance to the tempo of her counting and to the music. I am looking down because I'm very concern about me stumbling my own dress and fall to the ground.

I stretched my legs elegantly, turned and my hair's as if it has its own life that it accompanies me as I dance.

I've never danced before, in fact I never dreamed of experiencing one. That's the sole reason why I find what I am doing right now weird and a degrading act. Especially for a man like me but then again;

I'm a young noble lady on this world.

"Finally!" 

She almost jumped due to her excitement. I'm catching my breath but I managed to smile. After almost a day of practice I managed to complete the duration of the dance without looking down and maintaining a smile on my face.

"You're now ready my lady!" she said as she politely stopped in front of me, a step away before our bodies met. 

"You can just call me by my name when it's only us." I said as I whip my hair out of my face, it's oily and sticky because of my sweat but I didn't mind.

"If you say so, Seraphim." She said and her smile became more wider. I sighed and imagined how exciting it is to see the faces of the people who's going to witness my elegance while performing!

I can't wait to see lewd faces of girls!

I blushed and unknowingly showed a weird smile

"You must be tired, let's head to your house." She straightened her skirt as we walk out of this empty room that tomorrow night will be filled with guests from this country.

"I'll be leaving now." She bowed before I closed the door. After a long day, I deserve a cold bath!

I stripped out my clothes and threw them to the basket where I collect my used clothes for convenience.

"That was tiring." I raised my hands, stretch my back and yawned. After doing those I almost felt sleepy but I shook it off and went to the other room to soak my body with cold water.

This is connected to my room which is pretty unusual but I talked to my parents about it that it ended me with this situation.

You see, they weren't planning to throw me a big party on my birthday because since I was six years old, I kept on ruining the event.

And when I have a big request, they used as a chance to corner me. Now I have to deal with tomorrow's event and I also promised not to run again or disappear.

I did that almost every year so, yeah.

It's only for a few hours while this bathroom will be forever as long as I'm alive and lives here. I gained more that I didn't even care that I would have to wear stack of clothes again.

I rested my nape on the edge of this tub and started to hum.

I'm not sure if I was supposed to have all of my memories from my past life but I enjoyed it. Having two thoughts at the same time is a steal!

But the thing is, my life would be as a girl would be a bit more lighter if I don't have my memories.

It's hard to be a girl if my memories are of a man. I also miss the thing between my legs!

Now I'm stuck with this bouncy breasts and this thing over here!

"Lady Seraphim!" 

I almost choked from the water on my mouth when I suddenly walk up due to shock. I squinted over the door, they entered my room without permission again.

"What is it?" I asked, I'm still getting used to with my voice, it's so feminine that even my past self could sleep upon hearing my voice now.

"Your father wishes to see you on the dinner table tonight!" she answered. I held my head and sighed, if I could remember, it's been two days since the last time I joined them to dinner. I'm always tired that I slept early on those days.

Magical class has been tough lately, especially for me who's not very much interested to such things.

Specially healing spell!

My parents wants me to learn that because I'm a girl!

I frowned and shook my head as I stood up on my bath. 

"I'll be there in a minute." I said as I dry myself using my towel that's hanging from the door. "Heard you loud and clear my lady!" she said and I felt excitement on her voice. That got me thinking that after I've put on my night dress.

A lighter version of my morning dress.

I'm still full of curiosity as to why she feels excited.

"Eh? where's everyone?" 

I looked around but I didn't see anyone, not a single soul, lurking here in the dining area. I squinted my eyes expecting to see a faint movement but I failed.

I scratched my head and,

"Don't come near me I'm going to kill you!" I screamed and prepared my knuckles as I closed my eyes. I started throwing punches on the air, I am not looking but I should have hit something!

"Eh?"

I looked small after opening my eyes and saw party banners, hats and poppers. My mother is holding a cake with candles lit on it.

They all laughed at how shocked I am. I frowned and my brows crossed.

"Happy birthday Seraphim."

"Happy birthday young lady!"

They all screamed through their lungs.

"My birthday's tomorrow." I reminded them just in case their heads are full of air that they forgot the date today.

"We know but we want to surprise you!" my mother said and as they stepped, approaching me, they started to sing the chime of the birthday song.

My soul slapped his face as I receive the magic staff my parents gave me.

I'm not pursuing sorcery!
