Chapter One

I opened my eyes and saw an unfamiliar room. I tried to sit up and became dizzy the moment I did.  Where am I? What happened? I tried to steady myself and fight off the headache and dizziness I'm feeling. I took one look around the room slowly and tried to figure out what was happening.  It seems like I'm in a hospital or a clinic. There are three other beds aside from mine, it looks like a ward. I'm trying to remember what happened to me.  Did I finally collapse from overwork? I heard the door open and saw a man enter. Professor Xander. Huh? How did I know that? I don't think I have ever met him before. Wait, no,

Chapter Two

The moment I woke up, I looked around the place and realized it was still the same room as last night. I'm still here. Did I really die and reincarnate? Can I go back? I don't like this place. There are no computers, tv, microwave, internet, consoles, and so on. Women also do not have many rights. I would like to thank the women who paved the way for us young, okay, and not so young girls in modern society for the rights and privileges that we are receiving now though there is still some inequality, it's not as bad as in this country where women are practically like trophies being flaunted about. It's like a sin here if you are a woman, especially those who were born into nobility, and are still unmarried. "Would you like to freshen up now, my lady?" Carmella asked when she entered my room and saw that I was already up.

Chapter Three

I looked at what's inside the door and saw that it was stairs going downwards. I looked up at Professor Xander's face to see what he is up to but he just told me that it leads to his laboratory. I started wondering if he's gonna slice me open or something. I felt scared and the sofa I was sitting on suddenly got sliced into two."I'm not gonna do anything to you. My laboratory is a much better space for you to release your magic than destroying my office. It has seals to control the magic output. I use it to try experimental spells. Nothing deadly, of course." He explained.I still have some apprehension on going down those stairs but he's right, I have been destroying his office. He's not gonna do something to me right?Let's trust him. He's my professor anyway. Maybe I can slice him like the sofa, if he tried anyt

Chapter Four

"Carmella, do you prefer the 'me' now or the 'me' before? Be honest." I told her."I prefer the 'Lady Audrey' who could live her life to the fullest. For you to live your life with no regrets, my lady. It's not just me who wished that, it's everyone who had sworn loyalty to the house of Garrick." Carmella said solemnly."No regrets huh. What if I tell you, I don't want to marry the crown prince. That I want to take charge of our ducal house." I told her."Then I and the rest of your servants will follow my lady's order." She vowed."Be honest with me, how high are my chances in becoming the head of the house?" I asked."It's… impossible. The law doesn't allow it. Unless the law changes, there is no possibility for you

Chapter Five

I'm on my way to Professor Xander's office to practice my magic again or to drain my magic so I don't have random outbursts. I entered his office and saw that no one was inside as I had expected. That is the reason why he had given a key to his office. He told me last night that he still has a class by the 14th hour and that he would be free to join me after the 15th hour. I just finished my last afternoon class, calligraphy. Let's not talk about my calligraphy, there is a reason why I chose a computer major.  I proceed to the underground room, and begin my attempt in creating fire again. First, I need to balance the right amount of mana to produce fire. Mana is the magic energy inside our body so using less mana produces less fire or even no fire at all and large amounts of mana produces a large fire or large explosions. The amount of mana used is propo

Chapter Six

When it became the 17th hour, Professor Xander stopped the practice and told me to go home. "Professor, I have some questions not related to magic." I said testing the waters but he only looked at me and was waiting for me to continue. I'm just wondering if he would answer questions after the 17th hour. Also, he might not be interested in talking to me if it's not related to magic. "Is there a way for me to earn money here in the institution?" I asked. "None. Students here are all noble. The institution can't exactly ask them to work for money." He replied. Right. They came here to study. What do snotty nobles know how to do anyway? Wait, that means I'm also a snotty noble now.

Chapter Seven

I was walking in the hallway going to the clinic when I met my lovely little sister Emily with her henchmen. She's looking as cute as ever with her blonde curls, which she inherited from her mother. I think what makes her cuter is her size, she's petite and has a very loveable aura. But if you ask me, I think she's trying too hard to look the part. Unlike me, who is naturally pretty and has an air of elegance, yes, I'm talking about me. I look a little pale and malnourished but that's nothing that can't be fixed with healthy meals and exercise. "Sister, how are you? I heard you were in an accident the other day." She said when she met me, looking all worried. "I am alright now Lady Emily. Thank you for your concern." I replied meekly. "Are you sure? I heard you fell

Chapter Eight

When I arrived at the training ground, Professor Xander also asked about my eyes and I told him the same thing as I told Healer Jan that I was a damsel in distress but he only raised his eyebrows at me. He then proceeded with giving me lessons about light and dark attributes as the two of them are both special attributes. Light attributes are those that increase a person's capability like different kinds of heal and enhancement while dark attributes are those that hinder a person's capability like stun, poison, and the like. He also explained how to produce these kinds of magic as they are a bit different from producing and manipulating magic. It's actually a bit of both. Professor Xander prepared a frog for me to practice on but the lecture took the whole morning.  By the 10th hour, I asked Professor Xander

Chapter Nine

Once the 15th hour came, Carmella started preparing the milk she collected and the tools I asked her to be created for butter and heavy cream making. While we took a break, I helped Carmella and explained the process. It's not really that hard but she might be turning the knob on the tool for a few hours until we can create butter. Professor Xander and Healer Jan got curious about the tool used to create butter and asked what it was for. I explained to them about the process and they looked interested. They watched Carmella turn the knob but after a few minutes, they lost interest when nothing happened. I told them, it will take hours. These little boys… tsk tsk... I left Carmella and continued to practice while checking on her from time to time. After the first hour

Chapter Ten

"Why is it Xander's name written here and not yours?" He asked when he read the contract. "I can't exactly use my name for certain reasons." I said. "So? Why are you using Xander's name? You can use your maid's name." He said. "Because if I use her or any of my people's names, it will go back to me. I have some circumstances at my own home that prevent me from doing so." I said. "But still why Xander's?" He asked. "Because the professor was the one who suggested you and I trust him. This contract is only good for 2 years after that. Depending on the circumstances I can change the name of the contract but for now, I'll be using his name. After all, if my circumstances get out of hand, the contract can serve as your eviden
