《Change My Heart, Change My World, Change Me》Chapter 34 : Noah, Angela, Rhuifen concluded

November passed quickly. After that disastrous thing that happens to us settle, we finally able to enjoy our vacation. Originally, we were planning to visit The Ethervizh Kingdom again but with so many things that need to be done, we decided to delay the visit. They come to visit us in exchange. Not only to meet Kii and Aoi but also to attend our big events.

There is Nii-sama and Midori engagement party which I am glad to announce that it went nicely. Also, mine and Kii's wedding that soon will be held. Kii's father decided to invite Uncle Ra and his family, including the King himself in honour of Kii's Mom for the wedding discussion. It was the right decision as they seem very happy to be included, especially Aunt Rose who looks great. If you see her now, you wouldn't believe us if we told you that she has been bedridden for these past years.

Aunt Rose, Uncle Ra, Uncle Romero and Uncle King come to celebrate our happy moments. It was really a blessing. I would like to assume that our relationship with their kingdom is also good.

King Father asked Kii and I if we still want to continue our study or not. As I have said before, the school itself is not that important for us. There is no certification or something similar. The Academy is just a place for nobles heir and heiress to interact. For us to maintain and found a connection.

The material we learn there also no different from what we learn when we were young. The instructors that there are not there to teach us a new thing. They are there to help us control our magic better and to help us perfect our swordsmanship. Not that I said their job is easy. It is hard as hell, you know. They are dealing with nobles brats, after all. And, some of them? Us? Are such spoiled kids that feel as if we/they are in a higher position than the teacher. It was not easy to teach them.

The royal family are different from other nobles family, though. Sometimes, the heirs will no need to finish his study if people around them already acknowledge them for their skills. In dark time in the past, sometimes they even need to leave the Academy to go to war or become a hostage in a potential ally's territory.

We live in a peaceful time. So, for the past decade princes and princesses usually able to finish their time in the academy until graduation. I was a special case, though. Even before all of this happens, the instructors in the Academy already made several reports to King Father saying that they had nothing to assist me anymore. According to King Father, they think that I don't even need to come to the Academy.

My magic is nicely under control. My swordsmanship is excellent and I have a very good reflect in a fight. Their observation from the first time I attended the academy up to now is good. They said even when I was on a quest to subjugate beast, I always able to finish it without getting hurt. Based on that, they think I only need to train and have some experience, maybe to go on a trip to polish my skills.

They have the same opinion about Kii. Because even though Kii is just starting the academy, she is already good. Not as good as me, but better even when compared with other graduates student. Of course, she is. Kii has been training with me since she was young, of course, she is good. My training is not the same as their normal training here, it was similar to the training that I did with Luffy and Gramps (minus the fist of love) in my previous life. That is why when I took her away for a break last time, they have easily given us permission as they thought we are bored already in the academy and they also think it was a good experience for us to go on a trip.

All of the instructors in the Academy even dubbed us as the strongest couple. Weird, aren't they?

Come to think of it, our rapid development is thanks to Lexy who always went with our crazy training ideas. Whether to go to the forest, creating and practising a new magic move, finding and fighting the dangerous beast, all of those wouldn't have possible had Lexy refused to accompany us. Lexy is great, isn't he?

Ah, what was I talking about again? Oh yeah, about me and Kii attending the academy. We told King Father, well, actually I told King Father, Kii only said that she will follow whatever I decided to do. She said that because she would want to be with me anyway so whatever I decided, she would be okay with it. Adorable, right? So, yeah. I told King Father that I wouldn't want to leave Aoi and Midori alone in the academy, so we will still attend it. But, if they need someone to go outside the world to help them with something, please let us do it. Because we also want to help them.

I never care about this kingdom before, but now that I have many precious people living in this kingdom, somehow I want to help to make this kingdom be a good and peaceful place to live. This kingdom is also my home, after all.

As requested by so many fellows student and the instructors in the academy, my wedding and Kii will be on the first day of the new term, that means it will be held on the first January. I am complicated and somewhat happy to marry her on my birthday (my past life birthday, but still my birthday, right?). It will become my best day. In my previous life, that date never means anything to me, but maybe here it can become a precious date to remember.

I am beyond happy right now. I am so happy that it scares me. I don't want to lose this happiness.

Also, I'm glad to say that I don't need to worry about that pink thing anymore. She seems to change her target to Noah. Like it or not, we still meet them as Noah comes with his father to our place. The pink thing seems to stalk him now. Sometimes, I saw Noah sighs in annoyance when he noticed that girl following him. Since the kidnapping ordeal, she has lost interest in me. It was a blessing, indeed. I am glad to be able to free myself from her interest.

The pink thing also seems to stop bothering Kii. I was worry that she still wants to harm Kii, but one time she comes to greet Kii. It was not a nice greeting. She did not suddenly love Kii or anything. She still dislikes Kii and so did Kii.

The pink thing... Dare I say that she comes to talk heart to heart with Kii?

We (Aoi, Akai, Midori, Nii-sama, Kii and I) were gathered in the garden for a picnic lunch after our family finished talking about Nii-sama and Midori engagement when the pink thing comes to sit beside Kii. I was half expected that she would start talking nonsense to Kii. I also can see everyone gave the pink thing cold stares. She ignored us.

"I told Noah about me. He cried and told me that he needs to be alone for a while. I asked why he needs to be away from me for a while. I am not her but I also still her. I love him as she does and I am sure that I can make him happy. Much, much, much happier. He said that his loved one has gone and I am not her. He said that he wants to be alone to clear his mind. I don't want him to leave me, but he always refuses to meet me. So I..." She trailed in a choked voice.

I can see the other had the same thought as I did. What the hell is this girl talking about? And why she even told us this? But Kii seems to understand what she meant and why he was talking to us.

"So you give up like you always do" Kii nodded in understanding.

The pink think looked at her sharply.

"I didn't give up. Yet" She said.

"Oh?" Kii asked.

"I didn't! It just that I know I can't be like her. I'm different, but even so, I love him. I am sure that my love for him is not lesser than her love. I am confident that I also can make him happy! But I am not her. I can't be her." She said with a soft tone at the end.

"You don't need to be her" Kii said in a matter of fact voice.

"But he wants me to," The pink thing said sadly.

"Did he tells you that?" Kii asked.

"No, but..." she tried to says.

"No, but! Don't assume about something you don't know. Why don't you give him space to breathe? To think about all this, and when he calms down and ready to face you again, talk to him" Kii said firmly.

"I am giving him space!" She said in despair.

"Stalking him, bugging him every day, asking him to just fall in love with you soon is not an act of giving him space" Kii snorts elegantly.

"I just don't want to lose him" She tried to explain again.

"On the contrary, you will lose him if you keep doing that," Kii said again.

"I don't know what else to do," pink thing said in a defeated voice.

"Change your way?" Kii said after she looks at that girl for moments.

"You said I don't need to be her" Pink thing said.

"I didn't say you need to be her. I said change your way." Kii explained.

"Like what?" she challenged.

"Oh, I don't know. The way you live? I don't know about your past but I don't think Noah-san will fall in love with someone who can't even respect herself" Kii rolled her eyes.

"Hump! You're useless! Why do I even talking to you? (Yeah, that what we are wondering too, I want to say) I will show you the power of a heroine! I will find my happiness with Noah. I will make him fall to me. I will much, much, much happier than you that even Arzen-sama will regret not falling for me! ( I snort at that) I am the heroine after all. I will take Noah back and we will be happy. Happier than you or any other couples. We will grow up old together. We will become a happy couple until we died. And for your information, I only have Noah now. I don't care about other that is not Noah anymore. I only belong to Noah, like I am always supposed to." She said before she leaves.

Her tone was harsh, but her expression told different tales. She seems to be more determined. It is maybe just me, but she seems to be grateful to Kii?

Kii looked at her retreating back in silent, ignoring all our questioning gaze. Kii smiled at us and said that everything is okay. I more or less understand what she meant, but the other seems to be really confused. Though, in the end, they didn't think it was important enough to warrant our concern. As long as that girl stop bothering us, we are fine.

I saw Noah sighs in the distance. He had been in alerts since he saw that pink thing approaching Kii. I turned to give him a thumb up. He snorted while giving me his own thumb up. I don't understand nor I care about what happened between him and that pink thing, but Noah is one of Kii's precious people, so I also want to look out for him.

So, that was Noah and that pink thing. I am glad that we don't need to take a drastic measure to solve our problem regarding them. I want to say that we are lucky that she decided to give up on me and Kii, but I know it is because of Kii. Something must have happened that time they were together. As I said, Kii is amazing. I am sure that deep down even That Pink Thing knows that.

That Pink Thing, maybe I should start to remember her name? Nah, too much work. She is not important, everything is good so no need to change anything, yeah?

That was Pink Thing, Rhuifen on the other side... Pfft! I can't stop laughing when I remember him. It was both funny and weird. It seems that all this time he has been mistaken about who he falls in love with.

So, the story went like this. Rhuifen went home on vacation and because he was jealous of my relationship with Nii-sama, he also tried to get close to his siblings. He is successful. They start to spend time together and talk more. On one occasion, his esteemed brother mentioned his first love to tease him, he answered that his first love already belongs to me, which baffled his siblings, which in turn make him baffled too by their reaction. As he was sure that his siblings know that he loves Kii.

As it turns out, the little lady Rhuifen was in love when they were young was not Kii. Yeah, you are correct. It was Aoi. When they were young, Rhuifen little sisters were such spoiled brats and forceful being. So Aoi who was in charge of them sometimes forced to play in their dress up game. They would dress him in their dress and styled his hair with a wig which made him look like Kii. They are twin after all.

So, that time when Rhuifen supposed to fall for Kii was when they talk on one occasion. Rhuifen found that Kii is interesting and start to give her attention. Even if he never went to talk to her again. Too bad for him, if he just talks to Kii for one more time, he would have realized that Kii and the supposed girl he is in love with is different.

After the princesses explained to him about everything, he said he both feels relieved and silly. I was always wondering about how he looks so chill when I was proposed to Kii. So that time he already knew that the one he loves is not Kii. Yet, even so, I still baffle of how fast his heart heal. I meant, even if that girl is not Kii, he is been thinking that he is in love with Kii in ages, how can he just let it go that easily? Not that I want him to stay in love with her, mind you. I just wonder. But again each person has their own way to deal with their heart. Who am I to judge?

Rhuifen, to Aoi's horror, has been wooing Aoi since then. It was troublesome for Aoi but kind of another blessing for me. I don't know whether I should feel sympathy for Aoi, feel amused by Rhuifen's antic in wooing him or just feel glad that Rhuifen is not after Kii anymore. I really can't decide.

Meanwhile, Akai is kind of freaked out by it. Not in a bad way, but Rhuifen is his best friend and Aoi is his brother. Also, Akai used to the idea that Rhuifen likes Kii, so to suddenly witness him pursued Aoi is kind of weird for him. He did tell Aoi that Rhuifen is a good man and he was sure that Rhuifen will try his best to makes Aoi happy in a very serious and brother-like tone. Aoi, of course, stops talking to him for a while as a sign just how much he was irritated by that.

Midori only said that she is happy if Aoi happy. Whoever Aoi chooses to be his lover won't change her love to him. Nii-sama agrees with her. They mean well. They just want to support Aoi, but sadly it only fueled his irritated feeling. Worse, (in Aoi's eyes) that is, when his father's reaction is only patted him on the shoulder and said that Aoi is responsible for his own life choice and as his father, Asagi-san (it's Kii's papa name in case you forgot) only can support him from afar.

"I like women! I used to be a playboy for heaven sake! Why did everyone just assumed that I have the same feeling as Rhuifen?" Aoi vented on me one day.

"Dunno. It is because you never date in this lifetime, I guess" I told him.

"I was busy looking out for Kii" He answered.

"I know. But they are not. It also may be because you always been treating Rhuifen nicely..." I trailed.

"It is because I feel sorry for him! I also thought that he is in love with Kii and he is doomed because Kii is only had eyes for you. Besides, I think of him as a comrade in being deceived by Angela's fake personality. So I was kind of have a soft heart for him. But it doesn't mean that I have a romantic feeling for him, dammit!" He shouts.

"There, there. The rumours will go away soon. Maybe Rhuifen also will find another girl. He only had been with a girl after all. Remember that Rhuifen also used to be with a girl. And if he still wooing you, at least you can take a relieve in knowing that Kii doesn't mind about it. Like Kii said, Love doesn't know about gender. Love can come to anyone" I tried to cheer him.

"Ha ha," Aoi said without humour.

The rumour didn't die out, nor did Rhuifen advance. He even asked permission to be an assistant instructor so he can stay in the academy. He said that he made a mistake in the past. That time when he thinks he was in love with Kii, he never takes action which made him lose Kii to me in the end. So now he learns from his mistake and will pursue Aoi diligently. Jeez... Poor Aoi, Rhuifen is such a handful person, isn't he? His two best friends slash bodyguards also in the same shocked situation. Their usual professional and cold expression turned into an exasperated face. I often find them cleaning up Rhuifen messes and apologizing on his behalf to everyone, but mostly to Aoi. Poor them too...

Well, in conclusion... If we forgetting about Aoi misfortune (or maybe it was also a blessing in disguise? Only the time can answer, I guess) everything ends well. Our life back to its peaceful self. Our Kingdom starting to move to be better by cleaning up our corrupt nobles and help the citizens that have been suffering under them.

Lexy finally has officially become a Royal Knight. He is a symbol of hope among the commoners who have a dream to be Royal Knight. As a man born from a commoner family, Lexy able to climb high and placed in a position which usually only someone from a noble house able to gain. He is treated and respected equally as a noble would, even when he was from a commoner house. Witnessing his effort, young people from commoners family are also able to hang their dream as high as possible.

There was some trouble with the holy land regarding of Midori's biological father who was hiding there as a slaver named Garu. He is really a despicable person. The holy land was threatening us because they don't want their name looks bad in public. It would be such a bad reputation after all for the religious country like them to have slavers network in their territory.

They can't do anything though when it was the actual truth. We suspect that they even aware of that network and some of their high up gained fortunes from it. They also can't go far about their threat, because even though they are the biggest and most powerful kingdom in this world, even they wouldn't be able to take us and our ally. As the other four Kingdoms along with the two small tribes has joined forces, they finally decide to sacrifice the man to be given to us to accept his punishment. We are only going to put the man in prison, but sadly the man died poisoned when we arrived to collect him. So we only able to retrieve his body.

We suspect that this man was one of the high up in those slavers network and the other from that holy land decide to silence him so their network wouldn't be exposed. As peaceful as this world seems to be, corrupted people, corrupted governments will always exist somewhere inside it. Hidden they might be, but if we aren't putting our guard on them, they will grow and eating our peaceful period in no time.

We have established our alliance with the demons. As I thought, Nii-sama and Yulan get along very well. And I still keep an eye on him too. His body and hair kind of resemble my past self, minus the freckles of course. I never thought that I'm going to feel really grateful to those freckles. I don't want to lose Kii to him.

Kii always say that I need not worry because she only loves me. But I can't help feeling jealous. Even Yulan said that he likes Kii as a sister but I still jealous. Well, maybe Aoi was right. I do have this acute case of possessiveness towards Kii.

I don't mind it though, because everytime Kii feels that I was jealous, she will take time to make me feel better and loved.

Deep down I knew Kii only loves me. There is never even a need for me to worry. Maybe I only wished that my past self also can feel this happy, can have Kii's love. So, seeing Yulan posture makes me keep thinking that he will take Kii. I know it is silly, but I can't help it.

Oh, thinking of it is no good on this happy occasion. If you are wondering why even Yulan is here, I will tell you that it is not only Yulan that is here. There are also some elves, Rikki-san, Manbagi-san and other from beastmen tribes and the Ethervizh's people. We are currently preparing for mine and Kii's wedding. Woohoo! All of them are so excited and so I am.

Kii is shining with happiness. I am sure I am too. In a few days, Kii is going to be my wife. Officially mine.

I smile to myself as I look at how happy she is. I am really a lucky person.

I close my eyes and imagine Arzen and his Kii. They materialise in my mind. They are happy. Arzen is holding their baby in his arms with his Kii smiling beside them. Then, I think of Luffy, Sabo, Oyaji, Gramps, and all the family I left behind in my past life.

Guys, I am getting married. I am happy. I have a perfect life here. I hope you guys that I left behind there also have a fulfilling life. I hope all of you are also happy. I love you, guys. I will always do. I try to convey my happiness to them in my thought, I hope it somehow passed to them.

I open my eyes and think of Ether. I know he is looking out for me somewhere there. I know wherever he is, he will able to listen to me, so I whispered to him.

"Thank you for giving me this life"

Kii said that I change her heart, change her world, change her. Kii also did the same to me. Kii also did... Change my heart, change my world, change me.
