Chapter 2 - The childhood friends

In front of me was the holy emperor; he was radiating an extremely dense divinity, resulting in it manifesting as a light. He wore a white robe with mysterious lines curving on it. He did have extremely pale skin and golden hair. The holy emperor was not really that handsome, but if you see him even at one glance, you probably will never forget about him. After all, he emits a completely different and strong charisma, enough to make every girl's heart flutter. Showing his gentle smile, he spoke.

"My dear daughter, how to explain that thing?"

"What do you mean, your highness, by "that thing'? "

Kai smiles warily.

"Do you really think you can fool me, my dear daughter? Don't underestimate your old man; it's obvious the black light a few hours ago is from you. After all, you are the only person in the entire world who can use a black flame."

'How did the holy emperor even see it? If I am right, he was definitely in another dimension before I used it.'

And then suddenly a voice echoes in his mind.

'First of all, my father's perception is covering the whole world like it's nothing. As for you, you can also do that with my body; however, I don't think you can even manifest my perception, and the distortion made by that magic is so strong to the point it cannot recover with just a few minutes or hours, so my father, even if he's at the end of the universe, could still feel it.'

'Ahh'

After listening to Rene's explanation, Kai doesn't understand even a little bit of her explanation. It's not that Kai was stupid or anything, but casually destroying the natural law of the universe and knowing everything in the world is just unbelievable.

"You got me, Father, hehe, but I'm just experimenting with a new ability of mine, and then something goes wrong."

Kai used the term 'father' so the holy emperor would soften his hearts towards him

"Huh?" The holy emperor tilted his head a little, like he was confused. At the same time, he feels extremely happy because her one and only treasure, daughter, is calling him again, Father, like it's one of the most unbelievable things that happened to him, to the point he was about to cry; however, his daughter doesn't want to see him like that, so he suppresses his emotion as best as he can.

"Something goes wrong? Is that even possible for you?"

In the face of this question, Kai didn't know how to answer; he knew Rene had never experienced something like this going wrong. Or failure, even a mistake, she is always successful in everything she does, no matter what.

'Hey, Rene, help me, please, please.'

(just say, "There's no such thing as perfect; even the most perfect person could make a mistake," to my father; do not forget my milk tea.)

'yes'

Is that something like quotes or what? But it doesn't matter; he knew Rene was the only person who could help him in this situation, and he reluctantly put his trust in her word.

"Father, you should know, even the most perfect being in the entire world can still make a mistake."

As I anxiously waited for the words of the holy emperor, my hands were sweating while my heart was beating so crazily. He knew if the holy emperor became aware of their situation, he would probably kill my soul so his daughter would never exchange bodies with me.

"I guess so; even I, who was known as the strongest being in the world, could still make a mistake." As he said that, he slowly stood up from where he was sitting, and then his figure slowly became transparent, and in just a few seconds, he was gone.

'Phew, another dangerous situation successfully avoided,' as I lower my breath to relax my nerves. And drink the tea my maid provided for me and the holy emperor. Suddenly someone knocks on the door. My 6th sense is telling me that something troublesome will happen if I let him, but whatever, my day is already troublesome.

.....

"My lady, your highness, Prince Leonhard wants to meet you."

Wait, I heard that name before, if I'm right? Where on earth did I hear about that name ? Before he could remember, another voice answered his question.

'It's my fiancé,' Rene said indifferently.

'Huh, fiancé???? You have a fiancé? '

Kai is extremely shocked by this sudden revelation, and also he feels quite fearful; after all, if Rene's fiancé found out about their relationship right now, he would probably do everything he can just to remove his soul from Rene's body.

(Don't worry about it; there's no one who can forcefully remove your soul from me. Only my father can. Also, it's just one-sided affection between me and him, so don't be sad.)

'Who's going to be sad? '

'Wait, how does the holy emperor not feel the difference between our souls? Like, it's impossible for the most strongest person in the world to mistake someone for her daughter, right? '

(Who can it be when you're the only person who can hear my voice? And the reason why Father doesn't feel any strange thing on you is that my absolute defence is activated, or rather, it's always activated, which means any form or kind of ability, skill, technique, ability, etc. is automatically ineffective against me, even if the person using it is my father. That's why one could feel neither my soul nor your soul, even my emotion, idea, scheme, plan, presence, etc.)

She answered his question casually.

'By the way, what kind of person is your fiancé?'

Kai changed the topic of their conversation and asked her about his fiancée instead; after all, if he was some kind of pervert guy, it would be problematic.

(that gut? If I were to describe him, I guess the only word fitting with him is 'awesome'; he was extremely smart, had a great personality, was a genius, etc.)

It was the first time Rene had a high opinion of someone other than himself and his father in their 1 month of switching, and because of this, it made Kai really astonished.

"Give him this letter."

Kai picked up the letter from the table, then he threw it to the maid, and magically, the letter landed on her palm.

"My lady, this is?"

The maid was stunned by these words; after all, the young lady never had a fight with the prince, which made their perception of them that they are really on good terms.

"Yes, I'm breaking my engagement with him. I only agreed to this engagement because of thousands or even hundreds of thousands of my pursuers, with his name as my fiancé. Naturally, there's no one who would dare to approach me again, and I picked him because he was my childhood—"

'Wait, he is your childhood friend? '

Kai suddenly asked Rene; everything he just said before is the words of Rene on his mind, but he unexpectedly learns about the childhood friends of him.

'Yes, he is my childhood friend; my father, who is the holy emperor, and his father, known as the martial emperor, are friends. Because of it, we are always seeing each other at some gathering, event, party, etc.'

'Ahh'

As Kai satisfies her own curiosity, he continues what Rene told him before he stopped.

"And my, I guess, friends? But right now I don't think I need him."

The maid was stunned by what his lady just said now, but he quickly regained his composure and bowed gracefully to the beyond, describing the beauty in front of him.

"My lady, I should now deliver this letter to Prince Leonhard," she said as she slowly walked in the door.

'Hey, Rene, are you sure about this? 'I asked him because that guy was still his childhood friend.

(yap, don't worry about)
