Chapter 1 : Rebirth

Chapter 1

--------------------------------------------

In a deserted land with sparse vegetation and scorching heat.

A silver haired woman who's walking weakly, can be seen. Her appearance is like a totured slave with tattered white clothes which is also stained with dirts and mostly blood.

Red beads of blood drips on his trails as it was easily absorbed by the moist thirsty sand.

Despite her pitiful appearance, her face is still beautiful. She has a slim face containing her dark green shallow eyes which shows despair and her eagerness to live.

She has an elegantly shaped nose bridge, with thinly shaped peach coloured lips.

Despite being wounded, the back of her ear shows that she has a white fairy like skin. Malnutrition gave her a wimp fragile-like body. But you can still see feminity in her body as her right sized boobs and buttocks gave shape on her body. Probably every woman will be envious of her when she's not on her wounded state.

Until...

.

.

.

The weak, beautiful, slave-like woman maybe can't hold on anymore and suddenly dropped. Forcing her body to lay on the merciless sand. She can't stand the heat and maybe the starvation.

Until her cracked and dehydrated lips opened.

"I wont accepted death. I won't allow you to be happy. I will return you all the pain hundred times the pain that you'd implied on me. I Altairia von Choufeirden, The woman that haven't receive pity on gods, The woman that you'd envied for her beauty, Shall take her revenge!" A bead of water filled with sorrows rolled from her eyes as it was absorbed by the merciless sand. "No gods can't stop me, not even death" she said as her tone showed determinition on her speach, her eyes showed desperation for life and fearlessness to death

Not long after the womans laboured breathing stopped.

Altair's body turned pale caused by the extreme loss of blood.

.

.

.

Altair's POV

I can feel my warm body turning cold despite the hot scorching heat of the desert. I can't simply accept death. I won't allow death to just claim my vengeful soul.

.

.

I live in an era ruled by the arrogant gods.

They seek fun and wreak havoc in this world. They give no care on this world as they we're higher beings. Some of them waged war, some demanded sacrifice, some trained humans to kill other gods as they are Ironically forbidden to kill their own kind.

.

.

.

Over 22 years of existence, even once, I haven't even experienced parental love and the support of my family as I was the result of my father and mother's treacherous deeds on the empire.

My mother is one of the Emperor's Concubine, And my father is one of the Emperor's royal guards.

My mother and father we're normal couples back then. Until my grandfather offered my mother to the emperor as a Concubine. My mother don't want to part with my father but she was forced and threatened.

My father blamed his weakness for not protecting my mother. As a result, father trained for years just to become one of the Emperor's royal guard.After many years of training my father succeeded.

Every night my father would sneak into the palace just to see my mother.

.

.

.

Until, A palace servant discovered their secret love affair.

They we're captured and were sentenced to death.

.

.

.

At that time I was on my mother's womb.

The Emperor issued an edict to let my mother conceive and give birth to me. It's not because the Emperor loved my mother. They had let me live as to be tortured and be turned to slave. It is to heavy my mother and father's burden even in the afterlife forbidding them to rest peacefully.

.

.

I was raised by the palace maids and trained in an early age. I was maltreated, starved, poorly treated, and forbidden to make friends.

Only the Palace's head servant Mama Su Li, gave care and loved me.

Everytime, when I'm starved by the Empress, Mama Su Li would sneak into my room to give me food. Everytime I was whipped by the Empress for my mistakes, Mama Su Li would secretly treat my treat my wounds wounds. Mama Su Li taught me various medical techniques and ways to defend myself. She taught me all the knowledge that she had learned in the mountains in her early age.

I was contented with my life even if I was poorly treated, 'cause I know that Mama Su Li is always there for me.

But Destiny don't want to see me happy.

The Empress discovered that Mama Su Li was the one sneaking in my room and secretly giving me food, care, and medicine, which is against her order.

Mama Su Li was tortured. The Empres was not contended and ordered the guards to slowly mutilate Mama Su Li's right leg.

I was angry but I felt fear. I was angry because I can't protect the one that I love. But I felt fear that they might heavy Mama Su Li's punishment if I interfered. I felt Mama Su Li's pain and agony on her screams.

I was traumatized that night. I decided to forbid myself on tying close relationship on others, until I'm strong enough to protect them. .

Mama Su Li was demoted from head servant to a lowly slave.

I grew lonely.

.

.

As I turned eighteen, nothing their treatment didn't change but my body did. I was bestowed with beauty and a body that would give arousal to men and would make other women feel envy.

The Palace's princesses and the Epress was no excuse as they also was envious of my body. As a result, The Empress sent me to Set, The god of chaos of our land. The empress sent me as a sacrifice to the god of chaos.

I struggled with all my strength.

But my strenght is not enough. I am weak and I hate it. The Empress drugged me as she did not dare to use violence on me. It's not that she love me, She wants to preserve my body as a sacrifice to the god.

.

.

As usual I was also tortured by Set. But I didn't expect Set to be also captivated in my as he is a god. But it turns out he is no different on humans except for his powers. I was nearly got raped, thanks to the assassin trained and sent by other gods to assassinate Set, I got a chance to escape on that hellish place.

.

.

And now here I am struggling to live, laying weakly, injured, and dehydrated on this hell like place that seems like destined to be my grave.

I took my felt my heavy curtains falling due to fatigue and loss of blood. I took my final breath and felt my heart slowly and weakly stopped its function.

I felt my body drift in lake like space. I hear no noise, I felt no warmth nor cold.

Is this the afterlife?

But i can't just simply get over it.

"I will never rest in peace as I will surely take my revenge" I muttered, but i felt no noise came out of my mouth.

Until.
