《Tale of Pathetic Prince》1.04.02- Maisei Bradford
Advertisement
My mother Died while giving birth to me. And my father being a busy official, never gave me enough attention so the only one I could talk to were the maids that took care of me.
From the time I was able to talk, the maids told me various stories.... but my favorite one was always about how the queen fought legions of monster hordes and got out without a scratch.
I dreamed of becoming like her.
They told me that she became an adventurer at the age of 14yrs, with B ranking at that. She was the only woman I looked up to.
When I was 4, I got a chance to meet my idol. The king invited everyone to the birthday party off his son.
My dad took me there thinking it to be good way to socialize, though all the time he talked to his colleagues and putting me in the maids care.
That was when I saw her, she was the most beautiful women I had ever seen. Her silver hair shined like diamond.
And it was also when I saw him, the little prince was walking beside the queen in big strides. His body plump and cheeks red, he was the definition of soft and cute.
"Mother I wanth to eet tath!!......" While pointing his fingure toward desert, the little prince said to his mother.
"OK!! honey let's go". His mother as it was normal to let her kid eat some more started walking towards the desert.
I couldn't hold it in after seeing my Idol up close and, so I went towards her to greet.
"My queen it's a pleasure to meet you. My name is Maisei Bradford daughter of General Bradford " I said in a cute voice.
"Oh!! what a lovely little girl, my son can't even talk properly and your wording is so clear already?...Leo!! you need to study more."
Hearing his mother, the little prince started pouting.
"Happy birthday! my lord..."

Getting congratulated on his birthday made the little prince to laugh again.
While laughing he said.
"Mothel I don't like hel!!"....
There was only one thought in my mind at that time.' why is the wording and expression so different?'
After telling her how I worshipped her, she was creeped out at the beginning but said to some to castle tomorrow.
"Well little Mai!! I am going to get him to eat something ....Bye!!"
Even though the queen and her child were gone from there.
'She called me Mai!!'
That was the best day in my life, because of father being the major General of the army, I never had any friends and a nickname was something I always dreamed of having.
I couldn't wait to meet her again tomorrow.
******************************
The next day when I came to the castle.
"So Mai!! do you want to be like me?"
I was small, so hearing something like this I gently nodded my head.
"So from today I will teach you what it is required to be an adventurer... so from now on you don't need to that school for nobles."
What she said made me a bit confused.
"Don't be confused... from today I will teach you the basic study and make you adept in fighting.. you will learn literature with my son and other times, you will need to train with me ok!!"
At that time I was happy that my idol will personally train me, but at that time I didn't knew the reason for her generous offer.
That was also the day I met the young prince again.
"So mish sour pus!! what al you doind in my loom?"
"????????"
The young prince looked innocent, but when in not front of his mother, he shows his true self. That's what I understood from his antics that day.
"The queen ordered, that from today I will study with your highness.... so please!! take care of me"

"What?? Mothe taid that.... well I alway wanted a fend.."
The prince spoke while rubbing his hair. He looked very happy.
My days were spent getting lessons in the castle and learning the basics of magic. I always wanted to help the queen, so I bacame a spirit ranger.
**********************
When I got 6yrs old the queen started training me in combat, she only taught me to use a short dagger as a defence for a ranger at close range.
Today also something training alike was happening.
"Remember, you cannot parry with a dagger, so try to get in as many strikes as you can."
I nodded and started slashing randomly at her, she swiftly dodged all those in her gown as it was child's play.(It was childs play)
"Slashing won't do any good while using a dagger, remember to attack at the weak point of fthe opponent. Like at the neck or the eyes, these are an assassins technique but are still pretty useful for a ranger like you."
She was coaching me like this regularly, even though I felt tired, it is good that someone cared for me.
I tired to stab in her throat, but she easily stopped the dagger between her 2 fingers.
"Good!! you need to keep some more force when stabbing someone, but you pass."
When the queen was boosting my confidence.
"Mother let's go eat!!."
Came the idiot of the prince, after studying for 2yrs with him, I was able to understand this one thing.
"No honey!! I am teaching Mai now, so go and wait, I will come soon."
"But moth....er!! I am hungry."
"Just wait for 10mins"
after epending an eternity to make the young understand we went back to the training.
But my mind was not in the training anymore, It's a usual occurance the during training whenever the prince came, the queen will always go with him abandoning my training. But today, she detered even her son.
After some more training, in which I needed to dodge the attacks hurled at me ( but I mostly get beat up)
After the training ended, I went to take a bath in the shower.
When I reached the place,I could't see what but I found that the prince was doing something while standing next to the pool.
Curious because of that I went close to the prince.
"Hehe!! that bitch is taking Mother away from me... hehe!! she needs to be punished!! haha go and bath in my pee pee Mai!!..."
Is this really the crown prince?.... No way a great woman like her give birth to such a vulgur person.
He was peeing in the royal bathhouse while laughing loudly alone.... is everything right with the prince's brain?
And he didn't even notice me standing beside him.
I didn't went to the bath that day, all I did was tell the queen and she punished the young prince by giving 20 slaps on his bottom.
His squeal was heard throught the whole castle, even when the !st queen came to stop her sister, she couldn't help the young prince.
It was a funny incident, which got out to the general public outside the castle.
Because of this I felt some shame I stayed indoor for sometime , but the person responsible was still walking in the streets in big strides.
After I grow up, I am going to become an adventurer like the queen, I don't want to help a king like him.
But when I got 8yrs old, I understood why the queen was so good to me.
"My daughter Maisei, you are going to be the next queen, queen Angelica has bethroted you to her son... the future king.... rejoice."
That was the day when I went into my first seizer...... I don't want to marry someone that stupid!.

Risen
Note: Slight edits to early chapters (and removal of one chapter - previously chapter 2) have been made 2/2/21 The city, my city, had once been alive in a way that was hard to describe. Thriving, active, hopeful. Vibrant. But life, as I had come to learn, sometimes possesses only the most tenuous of grasps. Finally, in the end, it became my city - mine alone. I was, after all, the only one left. Worse, it was entirely my fault. There was red in my ledger that could never be wiped clean. Not while I still lived, anyway. This story follows Eran, a man who became the opposite of everything he had ever wanted to be; in a world where superpowers began to appear in a rare few, his lack of control over his own power relegated him to the role of a terrible villain - the Reaper, named so for the countless lives that he absorbed and made his own, each only furthering his deadly lack of control. Gone mad with guilt and isolation, he strove for a single heroic act - his own demise. Death was less permanent than he hoped. Centuries later, he woke to a changed world and in a body not his own. Unfortunately, his power came with him. Yet this time, things would be different. This time, he had a chance to bring it under control. He could never truly make up for the things he had done; he could never achieve redemption. That wouldn't stop him from trying to be a hero.
