[IM ANASTACIUS DE ALGER OBELIA]

CHAPTER 6- a normal day

IN THE DIAMOND PALACE

"What a story," said Anastacius while flipping the pages of the book and looking for interesting things

 "but I'm quite saddened by the fact that this wonderful story. Has a happy ending" 

Anastacius brush his golden hair and signed while bored looking at the pages of the book 

*knock knock*

Anastacius looked at the door and signed "come in" 

maria his nanny smiled while looking at anastacius and handed him some snacks to eat

"how is your day your highness?" maria ask while carefully putting the tray on the table

"Likewise, a normal and boring day" anastacius replied to maria's question 

anastacius looked at maria and maria looked back, anastacius smiled brightly so do maria 

"thank you maria for the food you prepared for me," anastacius said with a well-mannered tone

maria blush how cute at the same time handsome could anastacius get while just speaking a simple word

maria bowed and walked towards the exit but before she could open the door anastacius spoke

"maria" anastacius said trying to grab maria's attention maria looked back and asked, "what is it, your highness?" 

"are things prepared?" anastacius blankly said. maria smiled and said "of course your highness"

anastacius smirked "well then thank you you could go now" maria nodded and opened went out of the office

'hmmm, it's going to be fun anastacius winked to himself while thinking of those words

"ahhhh what a wonderful life it is," anastacius said while stretching his body 

"hmm what should I do?" anastacius said while standing up and opening his huge window the soft breeze went inside his office making all his paperwork fly around the room

anastacius smiled softly while inhaling the breeze he could smell 'roses' he thought while looking around his garden 

he suddenly remember his past the 'bloody garden' he thought, he remember the things that happened in this palace in the past

he remembered how he killed his mother in this garden he could hear his mother's pain while slowly dying and begging him to be saved 

"save me!! arghhh" the empress shouted while begging his son "my son save me!" 

he looked emotionless he didn't give any emotion he stared at his mother begging him on his knees crying in pain 

all the maids and soldiers were shocked and scared while seeing the sense they looked at the crown prince with disgust and fear of him

"ahhhhh!" the maid shouted

"your majesty! your highness!" the other soldiers shouted while the other soldiers tried to step in but they failed because of the mana of the crown prince stopping them to go through 

anastacius looked blanky while imagining those memories but he didn't feel any regret about killing his mother he felt really happy nothing more, he felt happy that he will be free from the cage that his mother put him into since he is little 

he breathe heavily and smirked 

"well let's get going," anastacius said to himself while walking out of the office he puts on his soft and bright smile and walked confidently into the halls 

his people in the palace smiled at him and bowed respectfully as usual anastacius put his soft smile to them and greet back at them and of course, his people are all blushing at his beauty and all the maid cause some gossip just seeing him walk by 

"the crown prince is really good-looking" the maid whispered to the other maids while holding her mouth 

"of course, he is the crown prince after all" the maid whispered back

"I can't wait to see him grow up," the maid said excitedly 

and they continued to talk about the crown prince without knowing he could hear them because they are too loud 

"people this day," anastacius said silently putting his hands on his neck while walking away from them 'annoying'

OUT IN THE DIAMOND PALACE

Anastacius walked to the rose garden silently and not bothering to be aware of his surroundings 

the wind blows softly towards anastacius, he kept walking while he covered his eyes with his bare hands the wind made anastacius hair messy "what a mess" he scoffed fixing his hair

"anastacius" a rough manly voice called, anastacius looked at the person who is calling him 'father' he thought with a blank expression on his face

"Blessing and Glory Upon the Sun of the Obelian Empire. Its nice to meet you here father" anastacius greet while bowing respectfully to the emperor his father 

"its been awhile" emperor alexander smiled while patting his sons head, anastacius didnt mind at all its his father and the one and only emperor of this empire

"indeed, its been awhile seeing you father" anastacius replied smiling at his father "would you like to have a walk with me father? just for awhile" anastacius asked 

"i would love to my son" alexander replied walking slowly and anastacius followed 

alexander puts his two hands in his back and smiled "did you like this rose garden?" ask alexander looking at anastacius

anastacius looked innocently at his father's question he thought it for a second and smiled brightly "yes, i do like this garden a lot happened here, its really memorable for me my father" anastacius replied to the question

"hmmmm, im glad" alexander said while looking away, anastacius stared at his father's face blankly for a second and looked back in the way

"father may i ask" anastacius spoke suddenly the emperor nodded and didnt say a word to his son

"not to be rude your majesty, but why are you here in my palace?" anastacius asked normally not wanting to look at his father 

"i like the to walked around here" the emperor replied

"in my palace?" anastacius asked, alexander laugh "i would be lying if i said i dont" the emperor scratch his neck

"then you like walking around in my palace?" anastacius asked again hiding his devilish smirk 

"i do, do you want me to tell you the reason why?" the emperor asked and furrowed his eyebrow questionally 

"i think its your pravicy father so i wont ask anymore" anastacius said innocently "if father agree, would you like me to go with you everyday you walk here?" anastacius ask with a big cute eyes 'shit, why am i doing this again?' he thought 

alexander softly smiled and patted his sons head "of course you are my son after all" the emperor looked up in the sky "well then, ill get going" alexander said walking away and didnt wait anastacius reply

'hmm looks like my plans is going well, im thankful. Father' anastacius darkly said and walked back at the diamond palace
