Capítulo 3: The Ashir Family (Part 2)

While Nala was put on such a high pedestal, Tria was treated the complete opposite. Tria was known as the fool and disappointment of the family, her mother died soon after giving birth to her. She was never given any personal servants, and she barely saw her father; therefore, she basically raised herself. Her living area was in the outermost of the estates, in the back towards the dark forest, and it was quite shabby. She had to do everything herself and sometimes would go to sleep starving when the servants would deliberately shorten her supply of food.

Now that she thinks about it, the night before was one of those times. She was extremely hungry and knowing that she was becoming an adult soon, she figured she would be bold enough to go to the inner areas to find food.

'She really was quite slow, she didn't even reach far before she got caught and dragged away. Yet, she still dared to come back and actually fell asleep here- wait, the memories of this girl are hazy, there's something missing', Amalthea turned to look at the bald boy by the bed who has been quiet since getting shushed earlier by her.

He was one of the servants of the estate, however, his identity was a bit special because he used to be upper-class. His family tried to commit treason and was then entirely executed, leaving him as the last one of the Clars. He was barely 3 years old, and so he was spared and got sold into this estate as a servant.

The Land of All was divided into four powers under the King: the Sun Land, the Moon Land, The Earth Land, and the Unknowns Land. The Land of All, shaped almost like a rectangle, in the upper left corner would be the Sun Land, where Tria currently resided. It was always sunny, and the inhabitants used the power of the Sun to derive powers from. Opposite of the Sun Land, in the right upper corner, was the earth land, though it was sunny there as well, however, the Earth Land people get their powers from the land. As for the right lower corner, it was where the Moon Land people lived, deriving their powers from the moon. The days there were always dark as if time was stuck at dawn all day. In the remaining right left corner, the Unknowns Land was still a mystery to the people. It was a forbidden area before, but as the other powers have found out there is spiritual power there as well, people migrated there in hopes to get stronger. The Spiritual power in the Unknowns Land was invisible, nobody knew where it came from, however, it was a very magnetic power.

The boy currently standing in front of Tria, was from the Earth Land, born as the noble Phi Clar, but now a lowly slave named Lan.

"Lan, you were saying?"

Lan was extremely puzzled, rubbing his eyes he looked at Tria from head to toe.

'She is Tria, but what does she seem so unfamiliar?'

"What are you playing at? After what you did last night, everyone has been looking for your whereabouts, and you escaped into the guest room to sleep?" said Lan, with his eyes bulging at her, there no signs of respect whatsoever,

"What's the big deal, I'll just go back to my area and await my punishment, haha, here I thought I did something irreversible with your nonstop banter" answered Tria nonchalantly, picking up her stuff to sneak out the room.

"STOP!", Lan face-palmed himself, not knowing where to start, he decided to blurt the most crucial part, rapidly saying " After you waltzed into the guest room last night, you saw someone in a situation, you should not have seen, and so you were betrothed to that person after the master learned of it"

"…", Tria blinked her yes at him

"…", Lan blinked his eyes back at her, waiting for her response

"…"

"…And so, you are currently being summoned by Master in the meeting hall, along with your fiancé's representative to sign the official documents for the wedding", Lan observed Tria, and seeing her not respond, he believed it was because of her slow brain, and so he did not care to explain much, "let's go now, the master has been waiting."

"…"

'What is this situation? I just got here, and I am already getting married to someone I don't even remember seeing, what had this stupid girl got me into? What if it's an old man, or some pervert? Gah, just take me back to my world please' crying in her head, Tria had no choice but to follow Lan, as she just learned from the body's previous owner, it's in her best interest to not anger her 'father'. She was too weak right now, she could not offend anyone. She will think about how to deal with this later, right now she has too little information about her circumstances to make any moves.

'Aw, my head' she moans, massaging her head, hoping to relieve the throbbing pain.
