The True Princess (Wmmap Fanfic)

Chapter 5: Blackie

Athy's POV

"Mister.. Why are you here?" I asked cautiously.

"Anyways, who arè you?" The man nonchalantly asked.

He keeps changing the subject...

"Can't you tell by my eyes?"

"Ah, so you're the daughter of an emperor?"

"...Something like that." I said, not noticing the sad expression I was making.

"Hmm.. What do you mean?"

"It's personal, okay?" I was beginning to feel irritated.

"Which one though?"

"What do you mean?"

"Which emperor?"

"What?"

"Are you stupid?"

"I think so, I'm a child after all." I talked back.

The man came close to me and held my chin up.

I was slightly afraid of his actions.

What the..

"Hmmm.. Interesting."

W-what?!

The man then let go of my chin.

"Ha, you're not young though?" The man slyly smiled, making my blood run cold.

Does he know.?

"Mister... I don't know what you're talking about."

"Tch. Whatever. Who's your father anyway?"

"...You don't know hi-"

"Be quiet and answer my question."

Is this man kidding me? How can I be quiet if I have to answer him?

"Claude De Alger Obelia." I say.

"Ha, Claude?" The man grinned.

"It seems I've been asleep for too long. Even my mana is depleted..." The crimson eyed man muttered.

"But Claude? That's your father? Seriously?"

"...Yes..?"

The man then burst into laughter.

What is he laughing about..

"Mister, I still don't know who you are.."

"Lucas."

Oh? I never expected him to give in easily..

"Ah, I see..."

"Anyhow, I won't ask why you were crying. But I'll have to go for now."

"Thank you.. But aren't you trespassi-"

"Shh. We now have dirt on each other. I know you were crying, and you know I kind of trespassed. So let it go already."

'Kind of' trespassed.?

"..Okay.."

The man the looked at me hesitantly.

"If you don't trust me, then here." He said as he extended his hand out.

"Huh?"

"Pinky promise."

Isn't he a little too old for that.?

"Alright.." Our pinky fingers intertwined.

Soon enough, he left.
