The Lady of Miracles: Trouble in the Border
Last Updated:
2024-10-29 19:42:56As I stood outside the gates of our city, I looked back and thought about how long I would be gone for. I don’t know how far I’d be able to go but I promise I would come back. I’d come back home to my father once I found what I’m looking for. I was hoping for someone to say goodbye but no one showed up. I turned my horse and left the gates. I made my way to the northern border, where I’ve been to before. According to the map in the book, the Taiyou Empire is in the middle of the land. Nanto is in the south so I need to go north until I reach it. I reached the city by the northern borders by nightfall and I w

We arrived in an old dilapidated inn by the shadiest part of the city. This looked like a place where thugs and criminals would hang around. There were a few patrons at this inn but they all looked very shady. The man stopped in his tracks and pointed towards a group of men talking and having a drink by the bar.

After a long journey, I finally arrived at the borders of the Taiyou Empire. There were a lot of merchants passing through the border gates and I decided to just walk along with them. The guards by the border weren’t as strict as the guards we had back home. The merchants scattered all over the city to put up their shops and trade with the people. I walked aimlessly for a bit, trying to observe what the Taiyou Empire had to offer. I noticed that the Empire is much more modern compared to our empire. They have streetlamps now and even though they’re not powered by electricity, they’re powered by gas which is advanced for this age.“Miss, can I interest you in some candy?” One of the merchants walked up to me and showed me an array of candies. I was surprised to see that they had a lot of modern candies. Most of them were in the shape of animals and flowers and I know that
Reborn Series The Lady of Miracles: Why am I here?
“I humbly offer my greetings to the Empress of the Taiyou Empire.” I said politely. I suddenly wondered why I was meeting the Empress instead of the Emperor but it didn’t matter to me. The Empress was exactly the person I was looking for. She asked me to raise my head.“Let me see your face, young one.” She said. I raised my head and met her gaze. We looked at each other for a few seconds before she stood up from her throne and she walked all the way to me. I was astonished by her beauty up close. Her hair was especially eye-catching to me. She must’ve noticed that I was staring at her hair. She quickly brushed a few locks forward and made me touch it.“It’s real, just to let you know.” She said jokingly. I was a bit surprised that the Empress could joke around with me about this stuff. But in my

"You must be here to ask about how we came to this world." She said. I quickly nodded my head. I wanted to know why we were here, why this world, why us. I had so many questions and I was excited to ask her everything. Before I could speak, she stopped me."Before I answer your question, I have one thing to ask you." She said. I nodded and told her she could ask me anything."What will you do once you find out how you came into this world?" She asked. I was stunned with her question. I didn't even think about that. All I kept thinking was how much I wanted to know how I got here and why it was me. It could've been anyone but why was I chosen? I looked at her and she patiently waited for my answer with a smile on her face. I couldn't answer her question. Now that I think about it, there's nothing I can do to go back to my own world. I don't think I e

“Nice to meet you.” He said. I was surprised but I quickly pulled myself together and smiled at him.“Nice to meet you too.” I answered. He smiled at me and went back to his mother’s side. I stood up and looked at the Empress. She was happily looking at his son with a smile on her face. It made me wonder how long she’s been here for. I wondered how she got to where she is today. She met my gaze and smiled at me.“You must be surprised that my children know the customs of our world. They all know who I am and where I came from. I teach them the things I remember from my past life and they accept it as their own. Even the Emperor acknowledges this phenomenon. I’ve met a lot of people who are from the same world where I came from. When I heard that there was an envoy from another Empire coming, I had a fe

“Please, help us.” One of the people who were just lying in the streets reached out to me. A lot of them looked to be in a bad condition. I doubt the Empress knows about this part of town that’s why none of them are getting the attention they need. As I observed, they seemed to be in pain and there were marks on their skin. I wanted to take a closer look but I knew that I shouldn’t touch them. I could tell that the marks on their skins were a result of bleeding under the skin. If my guess was right, they might be suffering from the plague. This was a desolate part of town and none of the other citizens would even think to come here so that’s why they’re in the shape that they are. They need immediate medical attention but I don’t have any authority in this Empire. I need to speak to the Empress again.“I’ll come back, I promise.” I reassured

I coordinated with the doctors and palace physicians on where to get the resources to make the cure. I’m still not quite sure if I’m dealing with the bubonic, septicemic or pneumonic plague and the first thing I should do is isolate that part of the city so no one else can get the disease. Second, I need to observe the affected patients. I can only check the symptoms to see what kind of plague it is and then start the medication from there.“How’s everything?” I turned around and saw that the Empress was standing by the doorway. I was inside one of the rooms in the palace since I had to stay and plan out what I was going to do first. She walked closer to me and I showed her what I had in mind so far. I’ve written everything I set out on doing and the materials I needed. The Empress looked over it and smiled.&ldqu
Reborn Series The Lady of Miracles: Start of The Cure
The next morning, I immediately set out to get the materials to quarantine the part of town where the disease seems to be located. There were tarps made out of the same material they use to make tents and I was planning on making a big tent-like building so we can contain all the patients. I also need to instruct a few of the physicians how to handle the infected persons so they won’t get infected as well. It’ll be a big job but we need to do it as fast as we can.“Please help me set this up.” I asked the guards to set up the isolation room. We don’t have the proper materials to make special suits for the physicians but we can make do with gloves and masks. The isolation tent was set up and we placed about 15 beds inside since it could only house a small amount so as to not let it get too crowded. I instructed some of the guards that were there to help us to prepare grav

I walked towards the shadow guard who called for me. When I was finally in front of him, he slowly lowered his mask, revealing his face. This was considered taboo for a shadow guard. No one, not even their master should see their faces. That was the only secret they were allowed to keep from their masters. I was surprised when he pulled down his mask."What are you doing?" I asked him frantically. I didn't want him to get into trouble. He shook his head and sat down on the windowsill. He was calm and it didn't seem like he was going to cause trouble. I relaxed my shoulders a bit and I took a step back from him."Why did you do that?" I asked. He was looking down on the floor when I asked that question. He turned his head towards me and shrugged."All this time, I believed that the master that I was serving was a good person. I knew of his story yet I couldn't understand the decision he made." He answered. I wasn't able to recall any memories fr

We arrived at the Imperial Palace and all of the guards weren't present outside. This was really unusual since guards were supposed to be stationed all over the Palace to ensure the safety of his Majesty. Whatever is happening must be big for all of these changes to happen. Prince Shiro held my hand as we ran towards the audience chamber of the Palace. There were guards sprawled all over the place, thankfully there was no blood which means the guards are only unconscious and not dead. When we arrived at the audience chamber, I was shocked to see the chancellor, on his knees in front of the Emperor. Imperial guards and Shadow guards were scattered all over the whole room, all of them were unconscious. "Father!" I instinctively called out.

"The Emperor knew of the Empress' schemes however he was unable to stop her. The fight for the throne was a battle that your mother shouldn't have been a part of yet she was killed because of it. The Chancellor was blinded by his grief and anger over the loss of your mother. Ever since then, in his heart, he blamed the Emperor for the death of his wife." The shadow guard finished his story. I couldn't believe what I heard. How could something like this happen to Himawari's family? Is this the price the chancellor had to pay by being so close to the Imperial Family? "But it wasn't because the Emperor didn't do anything for the Chancellor, he was unable to do anything for fear of the people's reaction towards the Imperial Family. He had to keep everything in secret and so the crimes of the Empress were never investigated and she was never found guilty for all the people she killed and all the crimes she committed. Until recently, when you exposed her crimes for the whole

Reborn Series The Lady of Miracles: History
I didn't know how long I was trapped in my room but it felt like forever. The shadow guards would put water and food down by my door during meal time. I tried talking to them but they were silent as usual. The maids never came around to my room either. Even Mei, who would usually be with me, never came to visit. Did father do something to her? DId she leave or is she just following my father's orders? Either way, I really have to get out of here. All my windows had shadow guards under them. I couldn't even try to escape through them. There was no other way for me to contact the outside world. I was locked up and trapped inside my room. It's been a few days and maybe Prince Shiro will figure something out. Unless my father talked to him about my whereabouts, he would surely try to look for me. "Hima..." I heard father's voice on the other side of the door. I walked closer hoping to hear what he had to say. "I hope you're not putting your fait
Reborn Series The Lady of Miracles: Locked Up
I was in front of the door to my father's office. My heart was pounding in my chest and I was unsure of whether or not I should confront him directly or investigate further before I jump to conclusions. I trust my father but it was just too suspicious of him to be in contact with the First Prince all this time. My gut is telling me that I should get to the bottom of it. After all, I know he wouldn't hurt me. If he really wanted to hurt me, he could've done so long ago. I took a deep breath before I knocked on my father's door. I slid it open when I heard his voice calling for me. He was standing by his desk, a cup of tea in his hand. He was looking out the window when I came in. He turned his head towards me and smiled. When I saw my father like that, I felt guilty for concluding that he was a bad guy when I haven't even heard of his side yet. Maybe it was all just my own misunderstanding. "You called for me, father?" I asked. He nodded and pointed towards the

I had to know more. I had to be sure that my father was innocent and that he wasn't involved in any way. There was an unsettling feeling in the pit of my stomach and I didn't like it. I didn't know how to go about with my day knowing that my father could be an accomplice. But I couldn't understand anything. If it was true, why would he do that? Why would he work with the first prince to kill the Emperor? If I was right that the First Prince was the one behind the assassination attempt on me and Prince Shiro, that wouldn't make any sense. He's my father, he wouldn't do anything to hurt me. "Miss? Are you still awake?" Mei knocked on my door. I quickly composed myself as to not seem too suspicious. I told her that I was still awake and she slowly opened the door and peeked her head through. "The master is calling for you." She said. I felt my heart drop to my stomach. This is such a coincidence. My father calling me right when I was being suspicious of him.
