Mana was a brilliant young lawyer working for the biggest international law firm in the world. With her prodigious talents, influential family and a perfect fiancé, her life was considered a dream come true…until a freak accident cost her everything. Or so she thought. After three years of being confined to a hospital bed, the man she had loved with all her heart told her about his betrayal as he slit her throat.

The next moment, Mana found herself in the body of a sickly ten-year-old princess of the same name, in a world she thought to be fictional. “The Legend of Mars” was an ancient epic chronicling the adventures of the divine King Mars and his virtuous wife, Queen Astra, and their triumph over the evil, half-demon emperor Raven. Princess Mana was the unfortunate half-sister of Princess Astra, who died at the age of ten…and somehow pulled in Mana’s soul.

And thus, Royal Princess Mana decided to make the best of her new chance at life and seek happiness. However, she soon found that what she had read in “The Legend of Mars” and the actual people she met were very different. Why was the divine child Mars an insufferable brat? Why was the virtuous Astra plotting nefarious schemes? Why did the brother of Mars look exactly like her traitorous fiancé of her previous life? And the meek little boy she accidentally rescued was actually the fearsome evil emperor …? But why on earth was he clinging to her and looking at her with puppy eyes?

The Evil Emperor's Fragile Heart

It was soon time for them to leave, and Mana and Raven joined the others in the room which housed the array to the Sapphire Kingdom.

"Mana, may be you should stay back and get some rest," Jules suggested. "Do you want to stay here for a bit and then join us in the Sapphire Kingdom later? Or do you want to come with us and then get some rest in the imperial palace of the Sapphire Kingdom? And Raven, would you stay with my little sister and make sure that she gets the rest which she needs?"

Jules's words were clearly out of concern for Mana, but the two siblings also exchanged a meaningful glance with each other, and Raven's pale face and Mana's pleading look was enough for Jules to understand that there was something wrong and that the two of them should stay behind and not accompany the others to visit Queen Dora's master.
