I Don’t Want This Bad Ending

Chapter 6: I'LL JUST WORK HARD!



Chapter 6: I'LL JUST WORK HARD!

Early in the morning, Evelyn was starting her routine that she come up with to maximize her time and at also powering up her mana capacity, although she has the affinity for half of the elements it didn't mean that she can use it to her expense because of how trash her mana capacity.

She came up with a list to do for herself...

Exercising her mana manipulation, extensive mental training, running in the morning, eating healthy meals with a lot of proteins because Evelyn needed to gain muscle, doing Yoga and lastly, as a young noble lady, she needed to take care of her skin. 

She came up with a light daily routine that she would be embedded with her body and soul that will eventually become her habit.

The looked in Adelyn's face can say that she's being serious at her goals right now.

Even after doing some exercise for a month, her mana is still weak because the Evelyn "before" didn't practice her mana and just constantly avoid doing magic exercise and training thus her body were not adept to the changes.

So that is why she needs to plan everything and plan over the things that her now body were accustomed.

"I can do this...!"

Adelyn...no, Evelyn were become accustomed to being called Evelyn now. She was also getting comfortable at the treatment at the Duke's house whereas they treat her like a temperamental nosy kid.

However, that became an advantage for Evelyn who was still trying to learn the things that she didn't know in the world that she was tossed to.

After doing her new planned daily task, she changed her previous casual clothes to that of a noble young lady.

The medieval-like clothes that have layers of layers of petticoat under the dress that seems to add weight to her whole body and is colored in light blue and frills at the end of the sleeves that cover the entire arm and a ribbon in the side of her stomach which make her look innocent and docile.

She was ecstatic about how her body becomes much more beautiful than her last even if it's still young and in the stage of maturing.

"All set... I should probably hurry, the new tutors will be coming today..."

The next destination is the room on the second floor of the mansion where the big oak doors are standing before her. It is the time for her first lesson, magic.

Opening the huge wooden doors that was decorated in a fancy manner, a man was patiently waiting inside, his desk was filled with books that compromise about beginners' magic.

His glasses and curly hair were visible to Evelyn who walked towards him.

Adelyn did a curtsy that she remembered in one of Evelyn's memories that she gained. She slightly bend her body forward, arms at the end of her dress and pulling it lightly that looks similar to an open fan and lastly, she bows her head in an elegant manner fitting that of a duke's daughter.

The teacher was shocked, to say the least, rumors about the Emsworth Young Miss was that a notorious spoiled brat that didn't bow with anyone if it's not the royal family.

She was rumored to be obnoxious who always thinks that she is the center of attention, however the girl in front of him doesn't have those bitch qualities. He started to see her in another light.

'You can't really believe what rumors are said... this girl is too graceful to be a snob and a brat' The magician named Ivo thought as he watches the young lady do perfected her greetings.

"Good morning Sir Ivo, it's a pleasure to be your student. Please take care of me." Said Evelyn with a smile on her face. She was excited to properly learn magic.

Ivo's face was slightly painted with red but can't be seen with his unkempt grey hair and his pair of thick glasses that cover his face. He quickly made his new student to sit so that they could start the class.

Thud!

The book in Sir Ivo's hand closed after he explained the lesson that he planned for the first day of the class.

"Let's end our class here..." He said.

The class ended with Evelyn wearing a big smile on her face when coming out of the study room, she bid him farewell and quickly escape to be in her next class.

Evelyn can't wait to try what his teacher said about accessing magic with a bit of mana for beginners like her, she's skipping throughout the hallway were no people are around and she quickly went toward her next class, she really can't wait for the fun things to happen.

***

The class with Lady Trisha, the teacher for the etiquette class went smoothly as Evelyn learned all the proper greetings with the memories of the previous owner.

Though she thought that it would be a fun class like when she was learning the origins of magic, when it comes to the etiquette class she felt too stiff.

'This is hard...' Evelyn thought to herself as she repeatedly greet and walk back and forth inside the ball room with her head held high, chin up, stomach in, and her butt sticking out.

Clap!

Evelyn turned around and heard Lady Trisha's announcement.

"Let's resume the class next time we meet, for now, I'm quiet satisfied with the Lady's performance... as expected of the Duke's daughter..." Lady Trisha said.

'Duke's daughter... huh...' Evelyn thought and pondered.

They bid their goodbyes after the class and Evelyn is now in her room changing her clothes to more appropriate training clothes.

"I'm quite beat... I didn't know that class for a child could be this exhausting..." Evelyn mumbled to herself.

"Are you alright, Lady Evelyn?" Sheila, the maid said.

"I'm fine... it's just that I'm not accustomed to the schedule yet, that's why I feel my whole body giving out..."

"I'll prepare a warm bath for you after... I'll also massage your body."

"That would be great... Thanks Sheila."

"Don't mention it, Lady Evelyn... it's my job to make you feel comfortable here..."

Evelyn just smiled and  wears brown pants that fitted her slender legs, it has frills around the belly and a white silk top with long sleeves and a ribbon around the neckline, her hair was tied up in a pony.

She leave the room and was walking in the hallway that leads to the training grounds when suddenly she saw a pair of sunset eyes looking at her with a cold gaze with his silver-blue hair, a young man was coming closer.

Evelyn instantly freeze in the spot and thought that she would at least greet him for the first time since she see him.

'What should I say?' Evelyn pondered.

She wasn't prepared to see one of the males leads this early when she knows that he's been avoiding her too.

Adelyn thought that now that she is in the body of Evelyn in the novel, she should try to make effort in building and mending their relationship.

'Besides they are siblings... there's no harm in trying.' She innocently thought.

Evelyn remembered that in the novel of "A Happy Ending", her brother hates the villain who harm the heroine.

'I'm not her... and besides I didn't meet the heroine of the story so I'm still safe.' Evelyn courageously thought.

*step *step *step

The sound of a young man's footstep can be heard approaching her and now he was standing right in front of Evelyn whose eyes were shining with expectancy. She regained her composure and do a little greeting to the young man looking at her with disdain.

"Good afternoon brother," she said with a stiff face It was Evelyn's older brother, Allan.

Allan only looked at her with a cold gaze, the temperature suddenly drops because of the awkward silence in the air and his sister who become frozen when she saw him.

'He resembles the Duke...ugh' Evelyn begin to lose her hope after she saw the looked in his eyes.

"There's no good in the afternoon..." said the heir of the Emsworth while he looks at her with obvious belittlement.

'Yup... I'm right! He's the carbon copy of that damn father!' Evelyn said to herself.

Then he continued...

"I don't know if you're only pretending to lose your memories or that if it's true... either way I don't really care." The words were sharp as a piercing sound to Evelyn who is now looking at his brother's cold pair of eyes.

'Like father, like son huh... they're both really treat "her" with negligence.'

Of course, the "her" that she was talking about was the young Evelyn that hoped to be loved by her family.

'This is just too sad...' She thought again.

While Evelyn was thinking how similar the situation of the Evelyn in the novel with the Adelyn in reality, she started to pity her situation but it was cut off when the Young Heir only continued with his words.

"You losing your memories is a privilege. You not only erase it the first time and now what? Did you lose all of your memories? You really only know how to run away didn't you...?"

A sharper and colder voice came out from Allan who is now looking at his sister with grim eyes, his words are prickling Evelyn's heart but she stayed silent in all her brother's talk.

"..."

"You must be happy now that you don't remember anything. What a blessed girl..." he said with sarcasm.

"..."

"Either way don't call me brother... I don't have a sister whose spoiled rotten and only knows how to beg for attention... and I don't have a family that only knows how to run away. COWARD" as Allan said what he wants to say, he quickly walks pass Evelyn whose face became distorted.

"..."

She didn't understand what he was saying to the young Evelyn, as Adelyn who was occupying this body now has certainly lost some memories when she was a child, but the look on her brother only confirmed her guess. Allan hates her to the bone.

It was clear as the blue sky that Allan didn't even consider her as his sister.

'That prick!!! I swear when I get out of this freaking novel, I'll tear every book that has his name and I'll complain to that fucking author. F*ck!!!' She's walking away from the site where her brother and her stood, the stomping footsteps can be heard throughout the hall with her clench fist.

'Now my good mood is f*cking gone. That f*cking Allan. Hateful'

"I really hate the word family..."

***

Evelyn recovered all the her irritations by exercising and training her body in the her last class.

After some time, the classed finished and she was ready to go back to her room.

The classes went smoothly for Evelyn's first day except for the conversation that she had with her brother, she was a bit tired because of the physical training her instructor made them do to her and she was mentally drained because of the repeat play of words her brother said to her.

Nonetheless, she was a bit happy as the preparation are now starting.

She had her dinner and taken the warm bath that her maid, Sheila, prepared for her. Evelyn ready herself to go to sleep but the hateful words keep on repeating itself inside her mind.

"That jerk!!!" She sprung up to her bed with annoyance visible to her face.

"I was planning to get close to him to have at least have an ally when things start to go wrong... ha" she smirked at her remark.

"In my previous world, I need to insist on others hoping they can accept me... How naive of me!"

"But not this time! I've had enough of that wishful thinking... family? Ha. I don't need those."

Evelyn started to concentrate to get her mind out of the gutter, her powers are her main focus. "This is the only ally that I can rely on and that will not betray me. I'll just work hard so I can rely on myself without needing their help!"

Evelyn decided to let out some steam and practice her magic until the sun comes out.
