Chapter 9 Beginning Of Everything 2 (Edited)
After giving birth to my first child, I was happy that I had someone else I love except my mother. Even though many criticise Delvi and me, I still had a happy life with my daughter.
Time went like that for 4 years. I got to know that I was pregnant with another child with the same artificial pregnancy method. Since it was the same method, I didn\'t have to be with that man.
I knew if this child were to be a girl or boy, there will be people always trying to harm our small family, and then the time to give birth came after another 9 months. I gave birth to a beautiful baby boy, I knew at that moment castle will not be a safe place for my children anymore.
Most of the people in the Empire wanted to crown my child as the crown prince. This brought the dissatisfaction of many parties among them most dangerous was that old cunning lady.
I got to know one thing during these 5 years that is despite the outer appearance of Queen Andriya she is rotten from the inside, so I always kept high vigilance toward their activities. I couldn\'t ask for help from my family because all of them were people I hated to the core. Even if I ask for help, I won\'t be able to say they won\'t betray me for sure.
As I suspected they made their movement today.
"Lyra, Delvi, Listen this castle is not safe for us or your brother anymore tonight we will leave this castle to a village I know. It pains me to take all these good foods and clothes from you but I must do this for your two and your brother," I said while caressing my two daughters\' hair.
"It\'s okay as long as I have my family I don\'t want any of these things," Delviny said while cutely smiling.
Lyra also nodded to my surprise I felt a small hand tightly holding my fingers. Velian was holding my fingers like to say everything will be all right.
"We will leave tonight pack some clothes and come to this room quickly," I said and left the room.
Velian POV
No matter what world I\'m in problems always follow me. I promised myself that I won\'t allow anything to happen to my family in this life. I already consider the mother and two sisters as my real family, but I\'m helpless in this infant body even though I have storage magic skills I can\'t even use them because my mana core is still not awakened.
"We will leave tonight pack some clothes and come to this room quickly" I hear mother advise the other two. It\'s the best option now even though the mother is an A rank she can\'t fight protecting 3 children. It\'s either fight or flight.
After a few hours, the sun took its break and the new moon is visible in the sky.
I heard two footsteps coming closer to our room. Mom got ready to use magic, but she didn\'t have to because it was two sisters with a small bag.
"Girls, are u ready to go now?" She asked
"Yes mother," both girls said at the same time.
We went through the passage and somehow after a few minutes, we were able to get to the capital\'s main gate. There were two guards but they were half asleep.
(Sylph\'s Hymn)
Mother chanted a spell to put two guards to sleep. Slyph\'s hymn is a wind elemental skill which brings drowsiness and decreases the agility of the enemy but it cannot be essentially used on battlefields effectively, after that we entered into the carriage to leave the capital, at the same time I used appraisal on mother to see her status.

"Woah She has two A-rank skills, I knew she is not to be taken lightly," I thought while getting onto the carriage.
3rd person POV
The royal palace was in a panic, as there were many attacks on servants as well as guards and also royal family. The Crown prince also got injured by this attack but only a few individuals know the real reason for this farce, that\'s to kill Queen Daphnia and Prince Velian.
"Where are they how can they escape without us knowing? Did someone sell us out?" Gilmorton asked the others angrily.
"Lord Gilmorton, we got information from a guard that they escaped from the northern capital gate in a carriage." A man clad in a black outfit suddenly said while running toward Gilmorton.
"I\'ll follow them and send two more C ranks to help me," Gilmorton said while quickly running toward the carriage.
After twenty minutes in the forest, a carriage sound can be heard running toward the direction of Rapidclaw kingdom.
Suddenly the carriage stopped without any sign of obstacle or anything. A sound of a man can be heard from the outside. Daphina tried to look at what happened to the driver but it was too late there was a dagger stuck to his neck.
"Your highness Daphnia, Come outside I don\'t want to make this anymore harder, we\'ll give you all a painless death," Gilmorton said while getting close to the carriage with his other two companions.
*Whoosh
Suddenly a pillar of ice pierce the head of one assassin and he fell to the floor lifeless.
