A Sorceress Struggle

Chapter 9: When birds make Karma Rain!

It has already been two week since I recalled my past life memories and a few days passed since my prohibition period ended.

And so I ended up in my super fancy bedroom of young noble lady attended by a squad of maids and pampered all daylong… to realize actually that today… I’ll be attending a garden party in the imperial palace

What a pain in the ass… I already have plans for the entire month! My schedule is full you know?! This shitty invitation is taking from my time… I could have already taken over more animals you know?!

I almost mastered the [Take over] skill if not for this unexpected invitation… I should really reconsider sending a few birds squirrels and rats to spy and gather information inside the palace

Yeah… I’ll put a few on each of the imperial family members, but the thing is that these animals are not discreet at all… the guards and servants might end up shooting them or try driving them away… so I am searching for a better way to monitor all my targets’ movements 24/7

I’ll think about it later… because right now I have more urgent matters in my hands… for example, breathing while being harassed by this torture device called “Corset”!

This bloody device that squashes your guts and bones, making you feel the pain of being strangled on the long term! And on top of that I don’t even have the right to complain about it…

All I can do for things to go smoothly is to ignore the pain and keep silent during this carriage ride…

Ughh… the greatest calamity… Corset torture!

Inside the carriage, Cassius and I were sitting face to face… but there were two more others inside the same fancy big carriage…

Vincent spoke to me with a look of disgust in his eyes… and near him sat a young woman older than me by a few years and one year younger than Vincent…

I almost forgot about her… Vincent childhood friend and fiancée, the daughter of marquis Bernier, a purple haired green eyed girl named Katherine Bernier.

She is one of the few in the world that see Satiana as a normal girl that deserve to b loved… so in other words? She is big sis figure for me!

Basically I m telling him “mind your own business and keep flirting instead of nagging during the entire carriage ride”

He obviously didn’t like it but Katherine calmed him down… thank you pretty big sis, your help sure is a blessing! Especial in these hard times of war against the waist crusher…

This garden party is a party organized by the crown prince, a ball for young nobles to socialize and make connections as well as matchmaking!

That golden haired bastard is actually organizing this a few weeks before the festival to probably introduce “her” to the high society

And quietly and discreetly raise the public affection towards her making the idea of her being his escort at the festival an acceptable idea

Yep this is not a triviality, by doing so he is declaring war against me and the Evanson house! But well… it would be a shame to back down right?

The fancy carriage with the Evanson house crest engraved on it, stopped in front of the imperial palace. There, four figures descended from the carriage.

The duke went to work inside of the palace while the three others went to the garden where the party was held.

By the way… this place is fancier then what it was in the game… the Victorian like style of building, with those steeply pitched rooftops with a church like finials with a small touch of the renaissance style

Yep this place is fancier than any palace you could ever see on earth… I guess it’s all thanks to magic?

Upon arriving to the garden then I suggested we get separated and let the two love birds enjoy the social gathering. I quietly sat on a chair at one of the tables with my attendant waiting on me.

By the way I am wearing a purple dress with topaz jewelries, garden party shoes, and silk embroidered black gloves as well as an umbrella that I haven’t been using till now.

The skirt of the dress is short suitable for a garden party so I am wearing long socks.

I look like those cute little gothic noble miss… you know them right? Those crazy little psycho girls in anime and manga, that’s the impression I am giving, at least that’s what I think.

But nevertheless I look cute but noble and beautiful and unapproachable. Of course the demeanor of a sophisticated noble lady attracted other people’s attention and gossip.

It appears like I am only sitting doing nothing right? The truth is that I was actually spying on everyone’s conversation and quietly gathering information on each and every person, after all, it’s better to know the enemy and the pawns I’ll be using for my advantage.

I am planning on basking in the sun and enjoy this delicious fruit tart till the main actors of the farce come on stage.

And it seems like they have came… this party’s host and his escort.

People greeted the imperial little sun, the heir to the throne and my fiancée, a golden haired young man, 17 years old, sky blue eyes, arrogant and sly smile on his face… yep the game main male lead, the Goat!

Errr, I mean the crown prince, Lukretus La Solis Regulus.

He started going all out with a majestic attitude, greeting people one after another, behind him a brown haired emerald green eyed girl stood.

Oho? It seems like he did as I have predicted, so in the end you brought her with you, fine after all I have already prepared for this situation beforehand, can’t waste time trusting a moronic bastard can we?

It was my turn to greet him when they came to my table.

First step, sarcastically respond to his arrogant tone under the cover of innocence and gratefulness.

People started whispering “Is the crown prince neglecting the young lady? Just how much she yearned for his affection to the point she would feel so happy about a mere party invitation”

In other world you invited me not as your fiancée but only because of my title? Nice one Blondie! Now take this!

In other words, you’re the crown prince only because you have Evanson house backing you up, try something funny and we will easily ruin your political position.

This guy is stubborn… he is using the “my dad is the king lol” card! He sure is a hard one to deal with… as expected of someone who’s studying politics since he was in diapers

But darling… you have a weakness standing right behind you. Didn’t you mama tell you to not mess up with a Sorceress? You’ll get cursed and badly!

Telling your name to a sorceress is like asking to be cursed

I looked at her a grin on my face while using my Evil Eyes on her, I could feel the presence of Solaria on her stronger than what I feel from the crown prince… yet that influence is not rooted and fixed like Lukretus’s… more like it was temporary or borrowed… saint hein? What an odd creature

The prince asked in a defensive way, ara ara? Can’t stand watching your chick is bullied? What an obsessive prince

He adores you because of your worth as saint at least I can guaranty that, the feeling of wanting to posses that light is just so obsessive, the urge to swallow it in the darkness is barely controllable

Thanks to my [Heresy magic] I can suppress that thirst for the light… what an addictive and charming ability… So Evil!

So that’s the truth behind the saint’s powers, charming victims with light holy powers, turning others to drug addicts, I wonder if she really can be called saint… more like a charming demon in the shape of a human?

To the point it’s giving me a headache; now try responding to this your imperial blondiness! Either you shut up and accept defeat or turn into the biggest jerk of the land

So you picked the jerk way, hein? Well don’t blame me for the following!

He flinched for a moment, hoho? So you are already aware of that hein? What a cunning crown prince, planning on using that power to charm your subordinates and lake all obey you? What a machiavilique plan coming from such a bastard… not in my watch!

I then called forth my powers enhanced by the blessing of the abyss discreetly and activated my domain around Canditia and suppressed her powers using the abyss affinity combined with the [Domain] skill

My eyes shimmered for a moment in red while I stared at the little saint in front of me casting the [Domain] using my [Evil eyes] a medium

I shut down the lights and Canditia’s influence on the surrounding people was completely nullified

Lukretus saw it and knew her powers were somewhat blocked, but he couldn’t know who actually did it

But of course that didn’t stop him from doubting and staring daggers at me, so I took chance f the situation and provoked him

Ugh… someone save me… I hate the idea of fall in for him… even if I was only acting! SOS! Call the emergency number I might throw up!

The prince didn’t like how I spoke to him and totally ignore that comment; instead he picked a more sensitive subject to discuss…

He want to know if I had my abilities awakened and what are their nature, to see if I really am the cause for Canditia’s aura suppression

I already sad this but this brat sure is cunning… careful at choosing his words and he know how to use his status as the crown prince carefully… but alas, his opponents is someone experienced in this domain!

If your shameless then I am twice as stubborn!

He took the bait

IN YOUR FACE YOU STALKER! Now how are you going to deal with this your highness? Answer me! By the way thank you for letting me have this golden opportunity to tarnish your image

He didn’t answer directly and surrendered after spouting something that broke the little saint heart

He grabbed Satiana’s hands while spouting that crap after panicking for a moment

Ewwww hands off! Hands off you filth!

I retracted my hand and grabbed my umbrella and opened it as well as my fan with the other hand as a way of showing that my hands are occupied

I then secretly controlled the group of birds that I have enslaved to fly above Lukretus and Canditia and their group of people

Canditia raised her head and exclaimed

Lukretus responded

He stopped speaking when it suddenly rained bird’s filth on them all, they entered a state of horror with the noble ladies that fancy the crown prince scattering while ordering the servants to help them and complaining how much it stinks

The only one safe was me under my umbrella barely holding myself from bursting into laughter, I fanned my face with the fan in my hand while speaking to the crown prince

I approached him a handkerchief in my hand, he didn’t complain at first until I started washing the filth toward his mouth and scattering on his body willingly but innocently acted like a spoiled lady that doesn’t know how to do basic cleaning

The party ended there with me entering the carriage and bursting into laughter like a crazy psycho satisfied by my verbal detonation and little prank

Sweet abyss thanks or letting me reincarnate and have a chance to have so much fun haha!
