Death and Rebirth

One night, at the same time...

Two special people died.

A gentle soul who died for a precious person.

A cold-blooded soul who was nuked to death because nobody in the world can arrest her.

By the powers of the Black Jade she has, both souls were taken away by it and passed on together, that in another world...their souls fell towards an estate. One in a shack, the other in a Dungeon.

For this one...

Emiya Shirou reincarnated as a girl named Dongling. A pretty young girl of age fourteen with pink hair and gold eyes. Being what she once was, gender didn't matter to her but now, now that she was 'not a sword anymore', she gained a sense of identity that her mind quickly adapted to her new body when before, she was a man in love with Sakura, choosing her over the world. She still has Avalon inside her soul that still has the remains of Saber Alter's mana, still unused for now. Because of Sakura who was connected to the Grail and Angra Mainyu, it remained full because Saber was always full until he died, consumed by swords as he defeated Kotomine.

She hoped Tohsaka is OK even without Rule Breaker. Only he could trace it and left it to Rider as she can't move anymore so she gave it her all to trace it before she died.

She was the loyal maidservant of her mistreated princess, Huang Beiyue, because she was a timid coward and a fool who cannot do martial arts in a world where Martial Arts is everything. But all she was, was not the girl's fault.

As soon as her mother, Princess Royal died when she was eight years old, like hyenas on a cornered prey, she was stripped of all that's rightfully hers by her cruel family, and forced to live in a shack when she fell ill and never recovered. Dongling has some training in Martial Arts that never continued because of Princess Royal's death, but Dongling continued her routines to stay in shape to protect her miss. As she is now before Princess Royal died, she was a 3-star in terms of cultivated noumenal energy. Despite all this power, Dongling only knew basic martial arts, thus has no way of using her powers, having no clue how. At least, she was educated!

Not only that, they have no money, so she eked out a living by selling Embroidery for their livelihood, worth 10 copper coins as handkerchiefs were all she could make.

"3-star...about the equivalent of a Servant with E-Class powers." she thought. "And I no longer have my damaged circuits, turning into this Elixir Field or the Dantian. And unlike Magic Circuits, Elixir Field gets stronger and bigger the more you cultivate. Tohsaka's going to spit bloody nails..." she sweatdropped. Not only that, she inherited Archer's knowledge because of his arm implant.

However, cultivation in this world...is expensive. Only the wealthy can reach arcane levels of cultivation with the help of Pharmacists. Thank goodness laws of power in this world is different. Back in Earth, you're set for life with what you were born with as a magus. Plentiful or few circuits of various qualities, such is your fate.

This was why the wealthy Huang Beiyue, was stolen from by the crafty and cruel Concubines Xue and Qin who used the money for their luxury, and their childrens' cultivations.

Xiao Zhongqi, the heir of the family was a Silver-Class A Warrior. The equivalent of about Tohsaka's strength. He enjoyed scaring her cowardly miss.

Xiao Zhonglei, the second son was a Silver-Class C Warrior. Tohsaka on a 'bad day'. He never mistreated his half-sister because it was beneath him to be a bully bullying the weak, that he looked down on his other siblings for it. But he didn't defend Beiyue either.

Xiao Yun, the second miss is the darling of the Xiao Family was a 3-Star Summoner with a Snow Cat, being an Ice Element.

Xiao Rou, the youngest miss is also a Warrior.

Xiao Ling, the eldest daughter is inept with Martial Arts. Due to Huang Beiyue's situation, has a sense of superiority over her that someone was weaker than she.

All these have same fathers, different mothers.

Ling is the daughter of the kind and modest Concubine Fang.

Zhonglei and Yun are the children of Concubine Xue. Dongling-the-original sees her as a slutty slag who was once the maid of Princess Royal Huiwen. Dongling knows she poisons her miss with her so-called medicine, but Dongling was powerless to stop it, thus was forced to play dumb.

Zhongqi and Rou are the children of Concubine Qin who fancies herself the household mistress because of her backing, being the daughter of a Counselor-in-Chief in the Royal Court. She was dystopic, domineering, cruel...and she was the cause of Dongling's death when she begged for leniency yesterday morning. And got whipped for her trouble. She was capable of fighting back, but could never use her powers due to the political situation against her and her miss.

It wasn't with the whipping...rather, Dongling died from cold in the dungeons, freezing to death.

From what Shirou can tell, Beiyue probably died from cold tonight too...since she, an ill girl was made to kneel in the Ancestral Hall for a whole day and night without food and water.

Shaking her head, Shirou-Dongling warmed herself up with magic, and easily healed and freed herself quietly...and snuck around the main residence to steal needed things.

She snuck into Lord Xiao's room, casting a sleep spell to prevent him waking up until sunrise, and checked the amount of money in his lam card. It was astronomical because he stole his daughter's annual income with the help of his evil concubines. Surely he wouldn't miss 100 million gold?

She also stole some other treasures, and snuck into Water Garden Pavilion where Concubine Xue lives to study the poison she uses on Beiyue. She stole a pill for study as it appears to be the same brands.

She left the Pavilion to go back to Flowing Cloud Pavilion where she and Beiyue were forced to live in.

Her miss is back?

"OK, I'm Dongling the maid now." Shirou thought. A young defenseless girl needs her now. She has to stay in character.

Late night at capital, no one saw a black fiendish aura, like ten thousand beast stampeding, rolled into ancestral hall in backyard of First Princess' residence.

In midst of dim candle light, a pair of pitch black but cold eyes slowly opened.

Looked at swaying light, the cold pupil did not move, after a long time, Huang Beiyue slowly digested extra memory in her mind.

Groaning weakly, she had to accept a factーー she...transmigrated!

Huang Beiyue, a princess with the same name as her, the daughter of Princess Royal, yet such prominent identity yet is the entire country's joke.

Coward, ignorant, cannot learn martial art, natural sickly person.

Imperial physician said she could not live past eighteen years old.

Not only that, she was real idiot, as First Princess' only daughter, yet let those commoner born brothers and sisters bully her worse than slave.

Her father's concubine is domineering and arrogant, father disgust and cold to her, since four years ago after Huiwen's death, her status at home drop a thousand zhang in one fall.

This time because speaking wrong words, offended his father's most favorite concubine, Concubine Qin, she was punished to kneeling in ancestral hall for a day and night, without food and drink.

This body from small has been frail and sick, this kneeling is the same as wanting her life.

But no one thought, by chance in the modern world know as 'Ultimate Weapon' Huang Beiyue, transmigrated to this body of twelve years old.

Slowly from the cold ground stood up, Huang Beiyue looked a glance at Huiwen's memorial tablet in ancestral hall, she actually felt a weak light flashed from memorial tablet.

Warmly like a kind look toward her.

Beiyue lightly sighed, said: 'Don't worry, since I have occupied your daughter's body, I would not let her died in vain.'

Her words finished, that light on tablet then gradually dispersed.

Paying attention to her plain white skirt, Huang Beiyue slowly exit the ancestral hall.

'You naughty boy, not here, there's someone in the Ancestral Hall~"

Feminine woman voice sounded in a dark corner of the yard. Her voice was playfully teasing her man. Apparently here to fool around.

'What are you afraid of? What can the sickly ghost inside can do?' came the derisive snort of a man. '-didn't you say she is an idiot? She even can't compare to a slave!'

Sickly ghost? idiot? She even can't compare to slave, as expected of previous Huang Beiyue, too weak.

'But people are shy ah~~~'

'Shy what? Baby, faster, i can't stand it anymore~~'

Undressing sounds were heard, then there was rapid panting and not harmonious ramming sound of wet slick flesh ensued.

Just coming and met this kind of thing, unlucky!

Huang Beiyue slowly walked over, moonlight slowly move over, shine her face.

Pale complexion, thin little face, because all year round sickly weak and eating medicine she appear to have deep eye socket, kneeling for a day and night she seems more haggard, her hair are messy, white colored dress fluttering.

In corner, a sturdy man pressing a seventeen to eighteen years old girl on wall, excitedly do the action, completely didn't know a deadly crisis is slowly approaching!

That girl began to feel pleasure, lightly whining, two snow white legs tightly wrapped the waist of man.

Within ancestral hall is quiet, this sound seem to be more ear piercing.

First Princess' memorial tablet is inside, these two people actually here shamelessly doing this kind thing, don't know to respect departed spirit a bit.

Is it because the daughter of First Princess is sickly, so they can satisfy their lust regardless of the law and of natural morality?

Huang Beiyue put cold expression on her clear little face, one step across, and by chance the girl looked up, suddenly seeing her floating white dress scared quivering.

'G, Ghost...'

'How is there a ghost? There's no ghost. Almost, almost, baby...uhhh...'

She recalled this pair.

They once delivered her food, a mere bowl of rice in a cheap, chipped bowl. They put a mouse in as a prank and when the princess cried, they happily berated and beat her for crying too easily.

Before Beiyue let him have the satisfaction of cumming inside his girl, she twisted off the man's neck with a mere swat of her hand!

'Ahーー' that girl eyes wide open and cry out in fear.

'Go ahead and scream if you want to die.' Throwing off that man corpse on ground, Huang Beiyue pick up the girl's upper outer garment wipe her hand.

That disgusting lowly man, even killing him disgusted her, if not because he has the impertinence to insult the death of First Princess, she killed him in disdain.

Dirtying her own hands!

The girl heard this, as expected tightly closed her mouth, whole body shaking like sifting chaff.

Bright moonlight, this face, isn't it third miss who kneeling at ancestral hall? Why she can kill a man stronger than her, did she see the sickly three miss's ghost come to claim life?

'I am not a ghost.' Wipes clean her hand, Huang Beiyue lips corner perked up to a complete ice cold smiling expression, 'What you saw, if you dare to reveal a word to outside, your end is the same with him, don't think of going to complain to Concubine Qin, i am not the previous Huang Beiyue.'

No one dared to joke with their own life, especially after seeing her mercilessly twist off a person's neck!

Pei Xiang at moment in her heart has only one idea: This Third miss, is definitely possessed by ghost!

The her just now, simply like a Shura reincarnation, that part ruthless and ice cold, let her hair on her body to raise!

Thin and weak body also not like before too weak to stand up to the wind one blow and down, the Third miss right now, from head to toe emit a graceful nobility aura.

She did not see it wrong, is this really that waste, sickly ghost, good for nothing soft egg?

No matter how, she already felt the Third Miss right now is the one she can't afford to offend.

'Third, Third young miss, I was wrong before, please spare me a little life, I don't dare to do anymore.' she kowtowed on the ground so fast in fear Beiyue compared her to a knife on a cutting board. Amusing.

She thought of scenes before together with other people who bullied Third Miss, Pei Xiang only feel her neck become colder.

She is only a maid, had somewhat good look, but to be born petty and low, usually very jealous of those real nobility young miss, to Huang Beiyue this weak and incompetent, but is First Princess residence is young trueborn lady making her even more envious and jealous! Therefore she always doubly bullies her!

She wanted to prove, young miss so what? She also can freely beat and scold young miss! Her position also above legal young miss! She can do even the basic martial arts, she could not! In this world, she was worthless!

But now, even if she borrowed ten guts, she also don't dare to bully Third young miss again!

'Want me to spare your life? I need to see your loose lips speak the truth.'

Originally just now she ought to kill this maid together with the man, because in Huang Bei Yue memory, before she was bullied not less by this maid.

Only, she thought she still has a little use, for the moment she temporarily decide keep her little life.

'This slave will certainly obey, certainly obey!'

'Deal with the body.' came the cold instruction, as Huang Beiyue directly walked out of this silent ancestral hall.

'It turns out the rumored First Princess' residence waste, is actually so overbearing.'

Cold voice like a gust of wind, suddenly rang.

Huang Beiyue turned around in surprise, who? Able to quietly conceal their presence in surroundings, and she did not detect it a little bit!

Once the voice out, naturally she can accurately determine the position, raising her head, she saw on leafy tree inside ancestral hall, a pure white robe hanging down, moving with the wind.

Ink jade black long hair spread on white robe, a moment moonlight seem somewhat blurred.

Huang Beiyue frowned a little.

Exquisite face that stops breaths, moonlight like white robe in contrast with fair skin color gives the impression even more brilliance, sword like eyebrows, light purple colored eyes gleamed with the reflection of rippling waves of water in the dim light of the night. Like a demon but not a demon, like a god but not a god.

Under the straight high nose bridge, light pink colored lips yet flashed a devil like light that let people be dazzled and stunned.

Bursts of breeze blowing over, few strand of black hair lightly stroke the cheek, that facial feature how to look it still incomparably perfect, without any flaws, seizing every all the snow, the moon, the wind and flowers in earth, yet will not seem like femme female, within his expression severe killing air coincidentally showing his domineering aura.

He leaned on a branch, purple colored eyes because moonlight shading reveal a bit demon evil aura.

Huang Beiyue hugged her hand, looking at him.

This person does not exist in memory of Huang Beiyue, he is a resident of First Princess' residence, and also definitely not person of Nanyi country!

Able to appear silently like this around her, this person is definitely not simple!

However, no matter who he is, it entirely not concern her matter.

'Mind your own business, and life will be long.'

Retracting her gaze, Huang Beiyue without looking back walked out.

What a callous arrogant little girl.

Feng Liangyi faintly smiled, within his face mixed with evil demon and heavenly god, two completely different traits, that intoxicates people's souls.

Huang Beiyue returned to Flowing Cloud Pavilion.

First Princess residence's most remote courtyard, covered in grass, tree shadows dancing, alone at night that it really can be startling by those swaying tree justs like in horror movies.

Soon after Princess Royal passed away, there is a doctor who said she contracted with a serious illness and will be contagious, let her move to this long abandoned yard.

She used to live in Water Garden courtyard, now occupied by Concubine Xue and second young miss Xiao Yun.

Second young miss Xiao Yun, fifteen year old 3-star summoner, within young generation of girls in Nanyi country, she considered a rarely seen genius.

Besides the current Crown Prince, it is Xiao Yun's limelight that is most flourishing.

Therefore Xiao Yun is extremely doted upon at home, Concubine Qin who gave birth to first son Xiao Zhongqi also not dare to provoke her easily.

Xiao Yun and her mother Concubine Xue seems like they're not particularly harsh to Huang Beiyue within her memory, not like concubine Qin that enjoys abusing her, only haughty Xiao Yun never put this waste little sister in her eyes.

When Huang Beiyue seriously ill, it is also concubine Xue who deliver medicine to her.

Wrong! Medicine?!

Huang Bei Yue push open Flowing Cloud pavilion door, quickly returned to bleak dark room, light the candle, pick up the usual medicine jar concubine Xue deliver and smell it.

She quickly frowned, as expected it's odd!

Inside this medicine jar has a trace of poison, taking it once will not be fatal, but after long time, body will become more and more weak, and finally whole body become limp, even not die but only can lie down on bed for lifetime.

So malicious, no wonder Huang Beiyue's body always this poor, even when Princess Royal was alive, asking so many famous physicians and still so helpless.

This kind miniscule amount of poison is difficult to find, also only Huang Beiyue knew this kind in modern world who received variety of poison testing training, with a smell she can know.

What a good concubine Xue! Princess Royal is kind to you! Without Princess Royal, you are only a mistress without status, you don't know to be grateful, instead use this kind of vicious means to harm her daughter!

Huang Beiyue sat down, slowly straighten her breath, she is not in hurry, these people, she will settle it one by one.

Death, too convenient for them!

Sky almost bright, Huang Beiyue is not sleepy, try to meditate on the bed, gathering Qi for a while, the weird thing is, every time when Qi entered Dantian, it will immediately cleanly disappear.

"FUCK! She really is a waste!"

Sick and weak is bad enough, even she is also unable to condense ki.

In this era of martial revere, powerful countries stand side by side, constantly warring, strength is the only standard to determine a person status, no wonder as Princess Royal's daughter, dubbed as Princess Beiyue, such showy identity also can reduced to a joke in Nanyi country.

The weak, no one will sympathize!

Only the strong will be respected!

Huang Beiyue quickly sorted out this world information from her mind.

Karta continent, continued the more than hundred years' chaotic period, because of upheaval and in decline, martial arts flourished, war opportunities let warriors in this era become highly respected.

As long as you're strong enough, you can run rampant in any country.

Suddenly, someone came in. Dongling!

Her faithful maid who stayed by Huang Beiyue's side in all hardships in this household. And she's carrying a lot?

'Miss?'

'Dongling? What do you have on you?' Beiyue asked her.

'Oh this? I was so angry about today!' Dongling cried. 'Fourth Miss got you into trouble for no reason so I begged Concubine Qin for leniency, but I got thrown in the Dungeon!' she shook. 'So I felt a little spiteful and stole some money and treasures! Not like Master will notice 100 million missing anyway. They spend money like kids letting sand fall from their hands!'

Beiyue's eyes widened. What a good girl! They were poor for so long, with this, things will be a bit better if they're careful!

'So I stole all these so if only for a short while, we're better off.' Dongling sighed. 'Let's hide these somewhere before I go shopping for breakfast.'

'Let's do that.' Beiyue quickly agreed. 'I need to go out too. I need some money as well.'

'Yes miss!' Dongling opened a sack full of shiny gold coins. Beiyue took out enough to fill a pouch before going to take a black cloak from the closet and left. Using movements that made 'not Dongling' pause.

'...that's not my miss...'
