My hell training will begin. They will shape me to be a proper heiress of Morte. They will help me to gain powers before I came of age. As Tom Marvolo Riddle is a person who likes power, I should be able to catch his attention if I am powerful enough and I already had a high status as Morte's heiress. So, I hope everything will go smoothly… even if I know it will never be…

°• MORTE IV•°
"She's different."
Seraph looks at her husband knowingly. After Rhadamanthus dismissed their daughter, they sat face to face to decide what they are gonna do about Sephira's unique condition.
"We should teach her all of the knowledge we know about. It will help her." Suggested Seraph.
"No. She can't handle it." Her husband refused.
"She's special, Rhad." Rhadamanthus closed his eyes.
"Her body can't handle it."
"You had the aging potion. What are you afraid of, dear?" Seraph moved to her husband's side and placed her hands on her husband.
Rhadamanthus shakes his head, "It's just because we never did that to our previous child before. I am afraid it will damage her mental health."
"She's maybe physically a child, a baby, but an adult mentally."
"Even an adult–"
"Shhh." Rhadamanthus leaning to Seraph, his wife rubbed his back soothingly. "Everything will be alright. She said that she can do it. Let's believe in her."
Rhadamanthus only closed his eyes and snuggled closer.

"Do you think they will agree?"
Sephiroth handed her a book about the history of the magical world. Sephira sat on the study chair in her room while Sephiroth wandlessly summoned books about Charm, Transfiguration, Herbology and Potions for a beginner.
"I'm sure they will, princess." Sephira hummed and opened her history book.
"Is there a way to speed up my study? Just curious."
Sephiroth stared with his flat expression. "Such as?"
"I don't know." She flipped a page. "When I was in my world, I watched an anime called 'Naruto' there is a technique to clown our self with an energy called chakra. The main character can use it to spy and when the clone dispelled, its memory will come back to the real one. Which can speed up his progress if he used it to read or to train." She explained. "And I am wondering if there is a way to do that in this world with magic."
Silence.
"There is." Her eyes lit up.
"Really? How?" Sephiroth chuckled.
"I'm not sure if I should tell you about that, princess. In case you tried that."
Sephira pouted, "I just want to know, didn't mean I want to try it."
Sephiroth smiled, "It's doppelganger, my princess."
"Doppelganger?" I parroted.
"Yes, it's a dark magic. The way to create another human being as an exact person. Absolutely a perfect copy."
Sephira nodded, "Is the real one will gain the clone's experience and knowledge too?"
"Yes."
"Did anyone can detect it if it was a Doppelganger?"
"No. They had a perfect magical signature as the real one. Like I said, princess, a perfect copy."
"And how to get rid of it?" Sephiroth arched an eyebrow.
"The only way is to kill it." Her eyes widened in realization. It's meant to kill a living being who had a soul and feelings too.
"Let's begin your study, princess. We wasted enough time." Sephira only nodded silently.

"Sephira."
She peeked from the book she read when she heard someone called her name. Her mother walked in her direction with a smile. Sephira marked the page before she closed the book.
"Yes, mother."
Seraph gestured her daughter to follow. Sephira stood and trailing behind her mother without asking. They walked to her father's study room. Sephiroth already stands in front of the door, welcoming them both.
"Come in, sweetheart. I will introduce you to someone."
When Sephira walked in, she saw a feminine figure standing in front of her father's office desk. That person turns back and her mouth slightly opened to see a girl who looks like a human, but inhuman at the same time who looked at her with an expressionless face.
"Sssh, sweetheart. Remember your etiquette lessons." Seraph whispered quietly, barely covering her amusement. Sephira closed her mouth and fixed her posture before following her mother.
"Sephira met Alice. Your new caretaker." The little girl named Alice offered her hand to Sephira to shake it. "Alice met Sephira. The heiress of the main head of Morte's family."
Sephira's studying her at the moment. A little girl in her seventh with pale skin. She had a short blonde hair that reached her shoulder and a white ribbon as a headband. She wears a blue dress and black shoes. Her eyes were white with a cat-like pupils.
Yes. Sephira recognizes her at the moment she saw her.
"I want you to do just one more thing for me," Alice asked with her soft voice, she didn't let go of Sephira's hand. Even if Sephira knows what that girl wants, she still looked at her with curiosity. "Would you die for me please...?"
Silence filled the room.
"Sure."
That girl smiled and let go of Sephira's hand. "You've heard of me."
I nodded, "Alice Pleasance Liddell. A demon."
She smiled, "I hadn't heard that name in a long time."
Alice sat on the sofa in front of her. She immediately recognized two figures who standing on the right side of Alice. They now accompanied her on the sofa, sat on the right and the left side of Alice. Seraph sat beside her daughter.
"How did you know her, sweetheart? I never mentioned about her." Seraph asked in confusion.
"It's your previous knowledge, isn't it?" Sephira nodded at her father. "That's mean you know about me too."
"Yes, father. You are the judge of the netherworld." Rhadamanthus massaged the bridge of his nose. "Your knowledge never ceases to surprise me." Seraph giggled.
Alice gestured to the two figures, "They are my uncles and I suppose you do know who they are, don't you?"
"I am. It's nice to meet you Count in Red and Baron in Black." They just nodded, "And you too, of course, Alice." Alice nodded, still smiling.
"Back to the business." Rhadamanthus gained their attention. "Alice here will be your caretaker. She will become your teacher too in the meantime and I can assure that you are in the right hands. That's applied to Lord Count in Red and Lord Baron in Black too, of course."
"Yes, father."
"And I shall accompany you to Hogwarts in the future too!" said Alice excited.
"What?"

Author's note:
Actually, I had an interest in Personas and because many of the arcana was based on mythology, I decided to add them in Morte's family. Morte is Death, so I put the death arcana in Morte's family. That was where Rhadamanthus and Alice comes. But, as you know that Alice's accompanied by two demons in Persona, they take care of her and both care for her deeply.
These are information of them.
Rhadamanthus in Greek mythology is the son of Zeus and Europa and one of the judges of the dead. He was to be the judge of souls from eastern regions, and along with Aeacus and Minos, would judge damned souls and determine their punishment in the afterlife.
Alice is a character from a famous story Alice in Wonderland, some say that she is also based on a myth of an Aryan girl who died at a young age. When Alice died and became a spirit, she gained extreme magical power that drove her insane. Alice was used to scaring Scandinavian children into behaving, or else Alice would visit them at night and kill them so that she may become "friends" with them. It makes her a perfect caretaker for Sephira.
And for her uncles. Count Red is Belial and Count Black is Nebiros. Both of them are demons.
What do you think?
The house of Morte is full of the death creatures. The next one will be a long time loop.
Leave a review, if you don't mind ^^
