My head was cut off, and when I opened my eyes, I was thirteen again. I wept tears of joy, and I made a vow. "The revenge I meant to take in hell, I'll carry out in this life." ~ All I had was money. What I lacked was people. So I gathered some people with my money... "Let's poison him. (cough) You're rich, so you can clean up afterwards, right?" Said the sickly prince, twisted through and through. "You'll really get me a corpse? May I cut it open?" Said the genius doctor, mad for anatomy. "Just give me information.

I will be able to become head of the house and take my revenge, won't I?
