Rebirth of the Southern Duke's Wife

Chapter 49

What the fuck is with this revelations?

Kaagad kong binalik ang buong atensyon kay Flora.

I can feel the intense anger and envy from her voice, parang ang tagal-tagal na niyang galit sa akin.

Na para bang kinimkim niya lahat ng iyan sa napaka habang panahon at iyon ang hindi ko maintindihan.

We just met for like not so few months ago so where is it coming from? Her wrath and envy?

"And after him, Frederik barged into my room holding a sword!" she laughed, nag-isip siya kung ano'ng sunod na nangyari.

She must be talking about the deal Flora and Frederik agreed on.

She giggled. "He almost cut my neck that time! He threatened me that he will alter my memories and turned me into a dumb lady if I'll touch you too, and of course knowing Frederik who's been keeping his love for too long. He didn't just threaten me, he made a god talk to me and you know what that means? Alam mo ba ang kapalit sa ginawang pakikipagsunduan ni Frederik sa isang Diyos?! He won't be fucking able to reincarnate anymore! All of that, just for you?"

Sarkastikong sigaw niya sa akin at tuluyang umawang ang labi ko't kasabay no'n ay ang pag-atras ng kaluluwa ko.

W-What?

My breathing goes very heavy.
My body felt numb after hearing all of that. Sumikip ang dibdib ko na para bang may pumipiga dito at pinipigilan akong huminga.

I want to cry and show how surprised, hurt, and worried I am but I couldn't when the emotion that's been ruling over is anger.

Gulliver is willing to be a slave just for my safety.

Frederik won't ba able to reincarnate anymore just for me.

I grit my teeth while clenching my jaw. My heart hammered alongside with aches.

Putangina.

Hindi ko magawang i-angat ang tingin ko kay Frederik dahil nadudurog ang puso ko para sa kaniya.

Nalilito rin ako sa inaakto ng damdamin ko. I am confused why my heart seemed crying.

Huminga ako nang malalim para hindi bumigay. In order to regain my composure I have to fully ignore what I had have heard.

This is a battle Sariyah, face your emotions later. You have to be fierce!

I think of another question to ask.

"Why you want Frederik to be dead?"

She laughed like a mad lady.

"Why because we're siblings?!" natatawa niyang tanong sa akin at sa paraan ng pagkakasabi niya ay para bang wala itong pakialam kung magkapatid man sila o hindi.

She signaled the ten person to stay put kaya wala pa silang ginagawa. But I am still on my guard, there's no room for me to breath.

Umirap siya. "I don't care, he just became my brother in this life. I must get rid of someone who keeps manipulating what's been planned to happen by the gods."

Ano?

I cannot understand what she meant by that but I can feel her resolve to get rid of Frederik and it made my heart ache for him.

Who could have taught that this will happen. I meant, her and Frederik are close.

Tinignan ko ulit si Frederik at hindi ako makapaniwalang natawa dahil hindi manlang bumago ang mukha niya.

So all this time he knew? Alam niya na gusto siyang patayin ni Flora? Then why he acted like he doesn't!

He has the magic to know everything! Literally mind reading! Bakit hindi niya sinabi sa akin kanina na traydor si Flora?

"Oh, I forgot, you don't have any idea what I'm saying! This bastard manipulated our memories before reincarnation after all. I'm just lucky that I regained my memories when I married Gulliver. Your best friend really loves you Erin, he sacrificed a lot but still, it's all so useless! It's his first time to confess his love despite the fact that we have been all reincarnated multiple times but sadly sa unang pagkakataon at hanggang sa buhay na ito, hanggang kaibigan lang talaga ang papel niya sa buhay mo! It's so funny!"

Tuluyan ng kumunot ang noo ko sa narinig dahil wala akong maintindihan.

I want to call her crazy but she doesn't seem to lie.

Fred's first time spoke about his feelings kahit ilang buhay na ang dinaanan namin? What?

Hindi ko maintindihan!

Is she just making things up to confuse me and so later on she can attack me with my guard being down?

I stared at Frederik, nahuli ko siyang nakatingin sa mukha at mga reaksyon ko habang naririnig si Flora.

He exhibits a smile, this time apologetic one.

My brows knitted. "What? Ano'ng alam mo na hindi ko alam?" tanong ko kay Frederik.

He stayed silent, refusing to answer me. Matagal kaming nagkatitigan pero hindi pa rin siya nagsasalita.

Puta.

Ang dami niyang alam na hindi pala sinasabi sa akin?!

"Don't worry, Erin. Just like last time, I'll end you in this life too. I promise."

Napayuko ako dahil sumasakit ang ulo ko sa naririnig mula kay Flora.

I want to get rid of her mouth but I can't when my head is hurting like this.

Ano'ng putanginang last life, memories, reincarnations at sacrifices ang sinasabi nito?!

Shit.

I have to calm my ass down.

"Oh no, you must been so confused. Don't worry—"

"Silent!" I shut her down using my magic without even landing my gaze on her.

Pumikit ako dahil sa lito at sakit ng ulo.

This body seemed to remember something but my memories are showing nothing.

I held my chest as it started hurting even more compared before.

Nasasaktan kong tinignan si Frederik at sumalubong lang sa akin ang malungkot nitong mukha.

Why is he looking so painfully at me?

"Sari, you don't need to know. You shouldn't know. Please escape now, Sari please?"

He sounded so gentle with me, his face is almost an angel every time I am the one he is facing. Everything by him goes on his softest kapag ako ang pinag-uusapan.

His eyes were pleading me to run away. Umiling ako sa kaniya.

Battles don't need a runaway princess, they need a queen to conquer a war.

You can't win by running, you win by facing them.

Napahinga ako nang malalim. I won't run, I will stand on my ground and fight for my country.

"I don't understand what the hell she's talking but I'll get you both out of here so Frederik and Gulliver, both of you better get rid of that handcuffs!" sigaw ko sa dalawa kaya natawa sila.

"The nerve to laugh in front of me?! You'll die now Erin, not from my hands but from theirs!"

Kaagad sinunod ng mga mata ko sa itinuro niya at gulat akong napatingin sa sampung tao dahil kung kanina ay parang normal lang sila at madaling talunin.

This time, their aura definitely changed a lot.

They have gotten ill and dangerous.

"Now Behemuth's ten Generals, show me your greatest strength! Kill that woman!"
