CHAPTER 08: THE FIRST ATTEMPT

Dawn Scarlet

As soon as I got out the window I immediately followed the smell of blood. Well, I am a doctor and I can easily smell blood even though it is meters away, I also worked on the military field before and so it is also easy for me to detect blood lust from people. And it is no different now that there are assassins in the Palace.

Assassins have intense blood lust especially if they are well trained. I just followed the smell and then not just long I saw what I was looking for. Trajan is fighting the assassins with a sword as his weapon. However, I can see that he is quite in the disadvantage. Before revealing my presence I looked around first.

There are 10 assassins present in the battlefield, 3 are wounded, 7 are still standing and surrounding the prince. However, I can still feel another blood lust not in this place .. But where is it? Who could that be?

"I didn't expect that we would be killed before a prince" - I heard one of the said and I could see Trajan's face darkening. This is the first time I saw him with that look. Of course he will be angry! Who wouldn't be angry when you were insulted? But what I did not except that he is also capable of making such look.

"You can't kill me that fast. I will not let you kill anybody here especially my brother and his wife" - he said reason for my two percent but I realized what he said he had lost his liberty ko sakanya. Like heck! I am not his brother's wife!

"We'll see about to that" - I heard one of the assassins and they rushed together. I prepared myself and as close as one of them was with Trajan I immediately threw one of my daggers and immediately dropped to the head of one of the assassins and before they could react I threw one again And for the second time one was reduced to the enemy.

"Who's there?! - One of the assassins exclaimed for them to look at me. I pulled out my two more daggers. I really did four and four. I hope I'll remember to get that two other that that is buried on those two assassins head. It's just a waste that the one I killed is already wounded, I am expecting to kill the one without wounds.

"What do we have here .. The target just revealed herself .." - said the same assassin who first spoke earlier and I could see in his eyes the excitement. He raised his hand and twisted his finger and as if on cue he immediately turned the attention of the remaining eight assassins. They are about to make theer move when Trajan suddenly blocks himself for him to focus on their attention.

"What the heck are you doing here Dawn Scarlet?! They are after you! Go away!" - Trajan exclaimed which made me roll my eyes. I am a doctor, gifted with talent and hands to heal but who said that I could not also kill with these hands? I tried my best not to kill in my past life. Even if it's an enemy I tried my very best to cure them and just let them stay in prison, even my family who only cares about money, I loved them unconditionally and I didn't chose to rebel even if I was given a choice that time That I can fully cut my connection with them. Even the major, who I adored killed me while I am asleep together with my sister.

And with all that has happened in my past life, I already told myself since I came here that I am going to live my life to the fullest, I will not anything hinder me from being a doctor that can serve the people. I will not let anyone destroy my life again because now I think it is time that I will use my hands for another purpose.

THIRD PERSON'S POINT OF VIEW

Dawn's grip on the dagger tightened and her emotional face was replaced by a blank face.

"Get her!" - shouted as the leader of the assassins because it was a command of their command. The uninitiated opponents immediately obeyed Dawn's cause for Trajan to blame. Trajan pushed the assassin he was currently fighting and his sword immediately went through the body of the other one that was about to attack him from behind.

Trajan was about to run to Dawn when he saw that one was on the floor and was bathing in his own blood and the other was a girl and even though he was a bit far away he could see how to go to the chest The opponent is the little doctor's dagger.

"Fuck! You put the doctor first! Did I think he didn't know how to fight?!" - The leader exclaimed and when Dawn heard this, her eyes immediately searched for the noisy opponent, and when her eyes landed on the enemy she immediately gave him a smile that he probably won't forget the rest of his life.

When their eyes met, the assassins leader automatically felt strange fear. In his eyes he saw a giant red bird behind Dawn's back. He knows that is a Phoenix, the legendary bird. The four remaining assassins, beside their leader, rushed to attack Dawn but even before they could get close to her, the four assassins suddenly threw away. The two fell to a nearby pond because it drowned and the two went straight to a separate tree. The both assassins broke the bones in their body when they crashed on the trees and at the same time their lifeless bodies slid down the ground. But they didn't die because of the impact .. They died because of the dagger buried deep on their chests.

"Die" - Dawn said and in just a blink of an eye drops to the heart of the remaining assassin a dagger. The dagger even almost sliced the Prince face. The leader fell to the pond and his body gradually sank.

Prince Trajan looked at Dawn with a shock face. And he was about to approach it when he saw something on his shoulder.

Prince Trajan was shocked to see it on Dawn's shoulder and in shock it was too late to notice that the girl was unconscious.

"Dawn Scarlet!"

"Tell me it's been two days and she hasn't still woken up! You are all useless doctors!"

Huh? What the heck is going on? Why the heck is my room so noisy? Did I get tired of a night shift in the hospital or did I just sleep in bed?

"Y-y-your highness, we beg your pardon but we really don't know what's wrong with Doctor Dawn."

What? You highness? What the heck - oh shit I almost forgot the fact that I actually transmigrated to another world when I died. But how the heck did I lose consciousness?

"Get out!" - The Emperor exclaimed causes me to look up in shock. This guy is a shame! If he could scream like no one would disturb ah? If my sleep was really disturbing because of his shouting I would definitely hit him

"Don't make them leave I am already awake" - I promise and I see his automatic look at me and the sigh of two other men in my room is also noticeable. I think they are the imperial doctors. How damn ironic that I am a doctor yet I am also being taken care of by a doctor.

"Check her pulse!" - The Emperor exclaimed and the two seemed to be in shock and the other hurried to me. He put a small cloth on my wrist and he put his two fingers to look at my wrist.

Well it is an etiquette in the Palace that if a woman is being checked male doctors are obliged to put a piece of cloth on the patient's wrist. I just heard it before and I really don't know why. Maybe the doctors are afraid that the husband of the patient will be jealous. However as for my case, no one is jealous because I have no love interest in this place.

"She really is fine your highness. I am not sure if she just fainted because of fatigue" - the doctor said and I could see the sweat coming out of her forehead. Okay I understand him being nervous since they had just been yelled at by the emperor but having such reaction while checking my pulse and telling his observations will leave a different impression.

"How do you feel Dawn Scarlet?" - Aurelius shen suddenly asked me which made me started to check my own body. I don't know how to tell her to 'but I do feel something weird from my body. I am pretty sure that when I say this to him and he will torture the two doctors to '

I am also well aware that the problem is not physically but more like spiritually. In my one year of stay here I have known that people here are not entirely normal, some can actually use magic.

"I am fine" - I just said and he just made a hand gesture and the two imperial doctors finally left. And only the two of us left.

"Tell me what exactly happened two days ago?" - he seriously promises to make me feel better. So I am actually asleep for 2 days? Now that he is asking me what happened actually I don't actually quite understand as well. Anyways, I just better tell him the truth if I don't want to lose my head.

I tried to sit and leaned my back on the headboard of the bed. I looked at him seriously. Only then I realized that he was already sitting on the wheelchair I accepted the craftsman to make him. After all, two days ago, maybe the craftsman decided to have it delivered her since I told him that it is for the Emperor.

"Will you believe me that I only remember killing two of those assassins and I suddenly felt like my soul is being removed from my body?"

"What?!" - He exclaimed. Because of her sudden cry, I was naturally surprised, I almost jumped out of bed. It was also a man who was a man and suddenly cried


"Your highness can you keep your voice down. My eardrums just don't want to break because of the power of your cry" - I seriously said and he automatically shot me a glare cause to make me laugh. My fool really! He is the fucking emperor and I just dared to say such nonsense!

"* ehem* Anyway, when I felt my soul being removed from my body, I just saw everything turned into the color of the night sky, then I saw a blinding light and everything just disappeared" - I divert his attention and his attention and I think I just succeeded because he seemed to think deeply about what I said.

* ehem* How can I put it .... actually what I told him right now is just half of the story. I did something and I was able to have a conversation with him.

I saw him opened his mouth and I know he is about to say something when someone knocked on the door and interrupted whatever he is about to say.

"Your highness, the Prince of Calurd is looking for you"

"You'll stay here Dawn Scarlet and have a rest. I'll just have a quick talk and I'll come back to check on you" - he said and I just nod my head. I just kept looking at his removal figure and when I was sure he was gone, I was holding my chest.

What happened two days ago Felt like a dream but I know it is true.

"It's fine and you're awake. Well I guess it is my fault why you were actually in coma for two days since I forced your soul out of your body to be able to talk to you" - I heard a familiar voice said and immediately I searched for the voice and I immediately frown when I saw the man who I just had conversation with two days ago, he is also the one who actually saved my soul and transferred it here in the not so ancient realm.

"I thought you would just watch me from afar, fourteen" - I said as I raise my eyebrow at him. He said that he was one of the five gods of this realm and when he actually saw how I died he decided along with the other four to save me.

"Well, I shouldn't be here right now. But I am worried that maybe I caused damaged to your spirit and at some point created a damage to the power inside you" - he said which made me frown. Alright, I do believe that magic exists but why the heck did he say that there is a power inside me?

Before I could even react I could feel his hand on my forehead.

"I guess your power restored itself, as expected with the divine lady" - he suddenly said with a smile and I automatically raised his eyes.

"What the hell are you saying?! What Divine Lady?!" - I exclaimed and he just laughed

"The white nine tailed fox beside you and the red feather tattoo on your wrist are just some of the proof of what I said." - He said reason for me to look at my side and there was a white fox with six tails. It is looking at me straight in the eyes.

Tangina! Where does this come from?! And what did he just say tattoo?!

I quickly looked at my hand and I turned pale when I saw that there was indeed a red feather on it ..

"What the heck-- fourteen?! Where the heck are you?!" - I exclaimed then I clenched my teeth when I couldn't find him anywhere my room. That bastard! I thought I should be grateful when he actually helped me in living again but now that I have this strange things I am quite doubtful if I can still survive this place!
