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

Vyom leapt up and positioned himself on Head Sage Yue's shoulder in a split second before Mana and Raven fainted – and along with Vyom, the big bubble that had been supporting Raven, Mana and Vyom underwater moved to Head Sage Yue as well.

Just as Head Sage Yue caught Mana and Raven, the holy sceptre reduced its size and jumped towards Vyom, who caught it smartly with his mouth. He even chewed on it a bit, realising suddenly why Big Brother Azar had told him that it felt good to chew on the holy sceptre. The rich and powerful magic in it felt nice.

Head Sage Yue noticed Vyom's action and remembered how he had seen the little black dragon using the holy sceptre as a chew-toy earlier as well. He shed a moment's silent tear for the ancient sacred relic, but a tendril of proud amusement was hidden in it as well. After all, these amazing baby magical creatures who used the holy sceptre as chew-toys were his grandsons!
