I Am Your Death
Chapter 06's

Varya listened to the report from Finix quietly. His suspicions were true that Duke Lawrence betrayed and it seemed to have been going on for a long time. Varya must think of a way to keep her power from faltering now.

"Your Majesty... Aren't you surprised by your fiance's behavior?"finix asks when he sees Varya's casual expression, after she tells him Dirto is playing behind her.

"Of course not. I had expected that. Now I just have to figure out a way to get my engagement, cancelled as soon as possible. But right now there are no supporters behind me, while the br*ngs*k has Duke Lawrence behind him" Gerrutu Varya, he has to find his way as quickly as possible now.

"Your Majesty... Is it only Duke Lawrence who is influential in Astra? Is there anyone else who is almost equal to him?" Varya rounded her eyes.

He found a way out of it now. Right, it will attract the person who will be his supporter. And Varya knew who it was.

"Finix, do you remember that girl who was with Grace the other day at the store?"

"Eum, if it's not wrong, the Lady's name is Bella. Is that true, Your Majesty?"

"Yes, that's exactly it. Soon an invitation will come from Marquis Frod, it is the birthday party of his youngest child, Bella Dev Frod. Of course we have to give a special gift, right?"grinning Varya thought of a plan that had been laid out in her brain.

"Finix, go somewhere. Choose the most valuable gift there. We cannot fail to attract an opponent... Be friends.."

_________________

A week later, exactly what Varya said. He got an invitation to attend the party, in the past he did not want to go there. Because he knows only the scorn that's there.

But not today Varya has gone to the residence of Marquis Frod. He is one of the most influential people in Astra besides Duke Lawrence.

Before long Varya got off her horse carriage which was greeted by her loyal bodyguards. A look was on him, as he entered the big door. Then he stepped into the place where the event took place.

Everyone stared at him, they did not expect Varya to be present at the event. There also looks Grace who does not like to see Varya, especially today the girl is wearing the dress she chose yesterday.

"Welcome Your Majesty to our makeshift residence. I am honored to attend this simple birthday party of my daughter" the Marquis welcomed with his wife and two daughters.

"This event is beyond the simple word. Hopefully at an increasing age Lady Bella can find her happiness" Varya said kindly.

Then the Marquis and his wife agreed to greet the other guests. Bella and her brother accompanied Varya there.

"I'm very happy to meet you, Your Majesty. I heard a lot of Your Majesty's intelligence from childhood." said Brother Bella named Vella.

"Ah~ really? I'm so flattered to hear that, Lady. I heard you also suggested a lot of development ideas to the Marquis, it was a great sting. I don't think it's wrong for the Marquis to always be proud of you" Varya praised Vella for making a shy smile.

"Lady Bella I hope you can follow your sister's path." Varya then gets a flat face from Bella.

Bella is very fond of her sister, she always felt jealous of the praise that people throw to Vella. He also wanted to get it, all this time he tried to attract the attention of his father, but his father never heeded it. This also makes the relationship between Bella and her brother tenuous.

"I'm sorry, Your Majesty, it looks like I have to go to the restroom now. Hope you enjoy the banquet"pamit Bella then go from there.

"You have a very cute sister Lady." chuckles little Varya, leaving Vella confused for a moment.

"Thank you Your Majesty"

"Damn!"yelled Bella tight.

"Damnfucking!" Shouted Bella again.

"Has your anger gone, Lady?" Bella looked back when she heard that voice.

"You? Wh who? How dare a bodyguard like you come here!" Bella said as she saw a man in uniform approach her.

"I'm sorry Lady, but I just wanted to invite you to see my employer."

"Who is he?" Ask Bella again.

"Please follow me so you can find out for yourself." The man then leads Bella to the living room in her residence.

Upon arriving, Bella is surprised to find that it is Varya. The girl smiled looking at Bella who had already arrived.

"Ah~ thank you Lady for fulfilling my call. I want to give you something. Finix please close the door" asked Varya, then Finix closed the door and stood guard outside.

Bella is still confused as to what she should do, Varya tells her to sit down. The girl was very friendly to Bella, making the jet-black haired girl point at her.

"Sorry Your Majesty, may I know what your purpose is?" Bella asked frankly.

"I just wanted to say happy birthday to you and... It's a gift I've prepared for you" Varya gave Bella a box.

Bella raised one eyebrow looking at the red box made of wood.

"Can I open it?"

"Of course Lady. It makes me very happy" Varya said with a friendly smile.

Bella opened the box and found a paper roll. He glanced at Varya who was drinking her water. Bella opened the scroll and read the writing there. Before long his eyes were round, he could not believe whether this was real or not.

"Yes-His Majesty did you really give this to me?"

"Ah~ Of course. Is there anyone else here besides yourself?"

"But this is a precious letter, Your Majesty. Even my father failed to get it. So how can I accept this?" Bella asked with concern.

It was a land letter in the territory that the Marquis had been aiming for a long time. Bella heard that the letter had failed to fall into the hands of the Marquis, but now she with both hands was already holding such an important letter.

If his father found out about it, surely he would get the attention and praise of his father. Surely Vella's place will be replaced by her.

"I give it to you because we are FRIENDS. Isn't that so Lady?"varya's grin makes Bella swallow her saliva.

"Ten-tu Your Majesty. I'm so happy to be friends with you. I'll make sure to be your best friend" Bella's grin makes Varya laugh now.

"I'm very happy. It's so much Bella" fun"
