《This time, instead of laughing I will help you say "I love you" to the princess》 Chapter 01 - What If... (editted) Chapter 01 - What If... ¡°Yo Udin, what happened to you last night? I heard you broke your girlfriend again. as expected from a top class playboy, you don''t know the word restraint huh.¡± ¡°Bryan, actually what do you want to do in here, huh? every time rumors about me circulate you always come to my room just to bother me, right?¡± At this time I, Hajime Udin, was in my room accompanied by a friend who had often been with me since I first entered the university, Bryan Junior. while Bryan was reading a manga, I turned a few pages of the fashion magazine I bought at the store a few hours ago. Like what Bryan said before, I just ended a relationship with my girlfriend about 8 hours ago. Whatever rumors like that were circulating about me, I could already imagine it. as Bryan said, my friends in my campus called me an accomplished playboy. this is due to me who always ends the relationship with my girlfriend no more than 3 months. for me chasing a woman is more fun than when they date me. even though I say it''s fun, it doesn''t mean that I understand what love or liking means to the opposite sex. but one thing I know, I just like when I chase them. that''s all, not more or less. maybe if I have to equate it, that feeling is more like when you play hide-and-seek and only you who still have not been found. ¡°Hey udin ?! why are you suddenly smiling proudly like that? for some reason I feel disgusted when I see you like that, so please stop that disgusting smile.¡± ¡°Shut up, I just admire my good looks. for some reason I feel guilty for having good looks that make a lot of girls lined up to date me.¡± ¡°Seriously, have you just hit your head? not that I don''t understand what you say ... it''s just that I''m trying to ignore that, so please stop that disgusting smile. and don''t look at me like you see strange things, the only strange thing here is you.¡± ¡°What do you mean by disgusting? my smile is an undeniable beauty. my smile was a very expensive work of art.¡± ¡°All right, forget about all my words, whatever I say to you is useless, in the end you are just a narcissistic fool.¡± Once again, my room was quiet again. the only sound that was heard was the page from the manga that Bryan read and the magazine I read. but not long after that, Bryan closed the manga he read, suddenly he invited me to watch a movie that has good ratings and feedback. the movie has the title The heroes of arsenial. As I looked at various types of the latest fashion trends, Bryan gave a synopsis about the movie. it looks like the movie tells about the journey of a noble boy who eventually becomes a hero who saves the world. the boy fought with various factions ranging from demon kings, black dragons and angels. really a very ordinary story. I honestly don''t understand what is good about a movie that has a storyline that is easy to guess like that. As I continued to look at the magazine, Bryan started playing the movie from the laptop he was carrying. the story begins when the boy is still in the magic academy. from what the narrator says, it looks like the boy is around 14 or 15 years old. ¡°So ... how about the epilogue of this movie?¡± ¡°Huh, what are you saying? 20 minutes just passed and you have asked for spoilers from this movie.¡± ¡°It looks like the ending of this movie is very unexpected. in the forum they said this movie ended quite tragically. they said in the end the royal princess married a red-haired boy but because the boy had sacrificed his whole body to seal his enemy he lost all his ability to act and make decisions, in other words he ended up as an empty shell. seriously, what''s interesting about this movie?¡± ¡°What The--!!! Why did you suddenly give a spoiler of the whole story of this movie even though just 30 minutes passed. Can''t you see someone else enjoying the movie. shut up and watch!¡± After Bryan said this, I finally watched the movie. at first this movie tells the daily life of a boy at the magic academy. but after a series of important events occurred, in the end the child formed a contract with the six elemental emperors and at that moment his fate changed drastically. starting from being chosen as the candidate representing the academy for the battle between the magic academies and eventually becoming the champion until he was chosen to be one of the ten strongest people in the entire magic academy. really a very predictable start.The story has been stolen; if detected on Amazon, report the violation. After the incident, the boy was finally sent with the seven chosen men to save the world from the attack of the demon king. when the story entered this stage, there had been a time skip for 3 years, in other words when he had graduated from the magic academy. at this time, it was seen that the boy had a romantic relationship with the silver-haired girl. The movie is told if the journey from the hero group passes through various obstacles to arrive at the demon king''s castle and that''s where the peak war occurs. when this happened, the battle scene began to become very interesting because it missed a bit from my guess. what happened was everything was chaotic due to the arrival of the black dragon which eventually triggered the emergence of angels so there was a fight between the 4 camps to determine the fate of the world. But like a movie in general, the mainstream scene always happens. this time it was a scene where a soldier who felt frightened and ran away scuttled out of the formation lineup. but one thing that was a little strange was that the soldier had been seriously injured. although it''s not too clear but one thing I believe in, characters seem to have a terrible ending. sure enough, when he managed to get out of line somehow he seemed to be silent for a while and as if to say something but, who cares ... in the end the soldier was burned down after being hit by a black fire magic that suddenly headed right at him. seriously, what the soldier did made me laugh a little. Not long after the cheap scene, the fight arrived at the climax where at this point 4 of the 7 people accompanying the red-haired boy had ended tragically. not only that, even the silver-haired princess was highlighted as having been injured and was on the verge of death. really curious scenes. Will there be another death or is that sacrifice enough to open the future in this movie? at least that feeling is what I feel right now. but I immediately knew it. the next scene that happened was when the red-haired boy called for elemental emperors who controlled time and space by making himself as a payment to borrow the legendary elemental emperor''s power. Sure enough, it caused the demon king, black dragon, and angel to be sealed inside the red-haired boy''s body and this was the end of the movie. however, after the credit is finished a final scene is shown where the red-haired boy marries a silver-haired princess who is waving their hands. but one thing is certain, this is not a pleasant ending because the boy''s expression is empty like a theater puppet that has lost the string to move. Really, what an unpleasant ending. but I''m serious if the scene where the final war takes place is really great and exciting. ¡°wait, it''s already 3 o''clock in the morning? I have to go to bed immediately because at 6:30 a.m. I have to come first and give a report for my advanced psychology course.¡± When I closed my eyes, I somehow felt my body was floating in the air but at the same time it felt heavy. That night, I had a dream. not a dream about myself but a dream about a boy who lives his life very normally. like a movie that is playing, I can only watch scene after scene displayed before me. but one strange thing is that I can''t hear anything said by the boy. like a popular silent movie a few decades ago. Until one time I heard a voice. a voice that seemed to be full of regret whispered right in my ears. [What if¡­ at that times I¡¯m Talk with her] [What if¡­ at that time I don¡¯t feel embarassed] [What if¡­ at that time I Try my hardest to reach her] [What if¡­ at that time I can break a Status Cap between me and her] [What if¡­ at that time I don¡¯t see her smiling face] All the series of sounds that I have heard have a similarity, that is, everything starts with the words "What if". every time this voice whispered in my ear, the sight before me always fixed on a silver-haired girl. a girl who is none other than a royalty who becomes the main female actor in the movie "The Hero of Arsenial". the whole whisper seemed to contain regret related to the silver haired girl. several times the voice whispered a story that tells of a boy who likes a daughter born to a family who has immense power, is idolized by many people, and has a good personality that is loved by others. while the boy does not have all of these things. he was born into a family that was mediocre, had no influence whatsoever, and did not stand out like the girl. [What if¡­ at that time I put my effort to join the strongest party] [What if¡­ at that time I learn some of sword technique] [What if...] [What if...] [What if...] [What if...] [What if...] [What if...] [What if...] Hear various sounds that tell a variety of circumstances that only end in wishful thinking makes my head feel dizzy. as if the sound was trying to break into my mind to make me grant all requests under the "What If" condition. the voice continued to ring in my mind. Not long after my head feels like it will break, I finally hear the voice whispering something that is not preceded by the words "What if". the whisper was heard by me after the scene before me turned into a battlefield. The scene where that will make me think again,-- [At least ... I can become a meat shield for her. for the girl I had liked since 8 years ago, Princess Revita Elfrina. Haaa ~ I hope I can tell my feelings to her. I really want to say that I really like her smile at that time, it is so cute after all] --why I laughed and was fed up with a cheap scene where a soldier was exposed to black fire magic that killed him instantly. Chapter 02 - A Certain Tragic Scene Chapter 02 - A Certain Tragic Scene Is this a dream about that soldier? Before Udin¡¯s eyes, there is a lot of scene that suddenly appear in front of him. At first, Udin see the scenery changed into a corridor where the boy looked towards the outside of the window. In there he saw a silver-haired girl walking cheerfully with two men who walked exactly 2 to 3 steps behind her. *Thump* *Thump* * Thump* What is this? why suddenly my chest was pounding very fast like this? Before he realized it, his chest was beating very fast. the pounding never stopped as hard as he held it. the more he saw the smile of the silver haired girl, the faster his chest pounded. So Cute¡­ [What if¡­ at that time I don¡¯t see her smiling face] When Udin thought that the silver-haired girl was very cute, once again he heard a soft voice full of regret. a voice that seemed to ask him what kind of future would wait for the boy if he never saw that sweet smile before him. after the sound slowly disappeared, this time the scene changed again. at this moment he saw a scene where the silver-haired girl was sitting alone by the lake. his eyes slightly reddened, tears dripping on his smooth cheeks. his small mouth seemed to shout something that could not be heard by udin. however, at the same place Udin also saw the figure of a boy hiding behind a tree. the boy could only be silent facing the sky while hearing all the words from the silver-haired girl who was crying beside the lake. Silent ... without doing anything as if he realized that there was nothing he could do, just fell silent until a red-haired boy approached the silver-haired girl who was crying and comforting him. [What if¡­ at that times I¡¯m Talk with her] Once again he heard a voice of regret. currently in front of Udin, the silver-haired girl smiled after the red-haired boy made various funny faces to entertain the girl who was crying a while ago. seeing this udin felt something stinging on his chest. he does not really understand what he feels, but he believes this is what is called a feeling of jealousy. Wait¡­ is it not the protagonist in the movie? then the silver haired girl is the princess? Again, the scene before udin changed. this time he saw a boy who struggled to do something but like being betrayed by fate, whatever he did ... it didn''t change anything. no matter how much he learns, he can never get high exam scores, not only that in the practice of magic, his efforts are always covered with the results of red-haired boys. the boy can only try and try again. in the morning he trained physically before anyone, during the day he practice magic longer than the others. in the afternoon he took classes on sword technique and in the evening he studied the theory in the guidebook. none of the results of his efforts were appreciated by others. even the highest achievement was only ranked 55 out of a total of 200 people enrolled in the academy in his generation. but the boy never gave up. as if feeling what the boy felt, a sentence suddenly appeared in Udin''s mind before he realized it. I will do whatever I can so that I can stand next to her. standing on equal status. like someone who has lost his mind, the boy tries and keeps trying to achieve the goals he has set. no matter what others think about him, he keeps trying and trying. but, once again he felt betrayed. no matter what he does there will always be a sky above the sky. whether it''s the election of candidates to represent the class in inter-class battles or become one of the ten strongest members of the academy. the distance the boy felt was getting away more and more especially when the silver-haired girl raised his healing ability and managed to establish a contract with one of the goddesses of the water ruler. the boy gradually began to think that the effort he had done was meaningless before extraordinary talent. he began to think about crying ... but he could not do it because when that happened he felt that at that moment he would truly be betrayed by his own efforts. [What if¡­ at that time I Try my hardest to reach her]Unauthorized usage: this narrative is on Amazon without the author''s consent. Report any sightings. Once again he heard a regretful voice whispering in his ear. this time the voice sounded lower. as if conveying all the feelings he went through ... made Udin''s chest feel tight. never once did he think he would feel this feeling. looking back, he felt all the things he did by playing with the feelings of all the women he approached made him embarrassed. shame ... shame on what the boy has done before him. loyal and ready to do anything for someone he likes. whether it is as difficult as what he feels, the boy never gives up to reach his goal. Even though no one appreciates his efforts, he still does not give up while hoping that one day his feelings will be conveyed. But ... immediately the scene before Udin changed drastically. this time he saw a battle full of blood. unmistakably what he saw today was the ultimate battle of the film he witnessed before he slept. a battle where all hope rests on powerful forces representing humans, hero''s strongest party. one different thing that was highlighted this time was not the heroes who fought against the demon king and the black dragon nor the battle that showed the hero against angels but rather towards a boy who ran as hard as he could through the forest without caring about the surroundings. His face and body were covered in blood. the pain that came from his blue feet due to dislocations was ignored. if you notice, the boy''s left hand is no longer in place. he bit down his lips with all his strength to resist the pain he felt. but there is one oddity that Udin feel. the boy seemed to be talking to someone but Udin did not see anyone near the boy. whoever the boy was talking to but immediately his face changed drastically and he looked panicked. the boy ran while looking at the conditions around him but the reflection of his eyes was not the battlefield but the figure of a silver-haired girl who was now grown up lying in the battlefield surrounded by guards and magic users who were experts in healing methods. if my memory was correct, this was a scene just before the boy suddenly came out of group that march to protect the princess and was killed by magic. As if answering udin''s guess, the next scene was what he had previously suspected. the scene where the boy was killed by magic which accidentally shot right about his body. but this is where an irregularity occurs. if previously he laughed at this scene because it looked very stupid considering a soldier suddenly escaped from a battle, but after he looked back, the soldier was not out of formation with such superficial reasons. if you pay close attention, the soldier appears from the right side of the line and suddenly runs to the left side whereas if he wants to escape to get out the line isn''t it easier if through the side where the soldier is located? but what happens if he has a strong reason to come out through the opposite side ... for example there are powerful monsters or something more important than monsters? but there is still a possibility if he just runs away because of cowardice. but when viewed from the current situation, the last guess is the most unlikely thing. When udin thought hard, he heard a voice ... but different from before this time it was not a voice full of regret in it but the opposite thing. the voice he heard seemed to be satisfied with what he had done. [At least this time I have succeeded in doing things I have never done ... that is protecting the girl I like.] Protect ... the girl you like? Do not tell?! Udin immediately looked towards where the silver-haired girl was lying and sure enough, had the boy not done that, no one would have realized the fire magic came right towards the silver-haired girl who was unconscious. at that moment Udin also realized one more, the boy was moving even before the fire magic arrived ... in other words he knew it earlier than anyone and the wound he received explained why he did not have the time to tell that to anyone . Seriously ... how far are you willing to sacrifice your life only for a girl who hasn''t even seen you at all? even I doubt that she knows your name. When udin admired what the boy had done, at the same time he also thought that the boy he admired was very stupid. even to the point he wanted to say there were still many other women out there. Besides that, as long as I saw all the scenes in front of him, he did not find a single thing that could make the boy crazy about the silver-haired girl he liked besides the sweet smile he accidentally saw. When udin was thinking about this, the scene in front of him changed to the epilogue of the movie. scenes where credit in the film has finished playing. it was a scene where a boy who had succeeded in becoming a hero finally married a silver-haired girl. but not the slightest feeling of happiness was felt because the boy now looked like a doll that had even lost a rope that could move his body. Wait, is this scene there after the very tragic happy ending is over? I don''t think there are scenes like this? the scene where ... the silver-haired girl died just after she finished waving her hand from the castle. The scene seen by Udin was a continuation that he did not even expect, after the many sacrifices made during the war, in the end there was no happy ending that had been anticipated. after the girl waved her hand, as if losing her support ... the silver-haired girl''s head fell to the ground from a height of about a few hundred feet from where she stood. this happened because suddenly a demon-like figure slashed the silver-haired girl''s head with her hand right from the back of the girl. not only did the scene end with the destruction of the kingdom due to a light filled with dark energy created by demons that resembled the man. truly a tragic end for a story of which told about heroism. Before he realized it, the entire scene before him turned to pitch black. but this time it wasn''t just sound, he could see a man standing in front of him and asking him, "What do you think about all of this?" ¡°Seriously, this is the most tragic end I''ve ever known¡± Chapter 03 - A Certain Conversation Chapter 03 - A Certain Conversation *Chirp* *Chirp* *Chirp* ¡°Urgh ... sky and ... forest? Where is this?¡± For a moment I opened my eyes, I saw a blue sky stretching out before me, besides ... I also saw shady trees surrounding me. although at first I felt a little confused, but it didn''t take long for me to realize the current condition. no doubt, this must have been the work of a boy in my dream. while I was still lying under this shady tree, I recalled my conversation with the boy¡­ not a boy but a demon. *** "What do you think about all of this?" ¡°Seriously, this is the most tragic end I''ve ever known¡± even though I was a little confused, I answered the question from the boy without thinking. tragic end. that''s the only word I can express after seeing a truly chaotic ending like this. I honestly have never seen the end of a story like this. when I answered the question from the boy whose face was covered by the black mist, he laughed resignedly in a very small voice. whatever the boy thought I would not know. "''tragic end'', huh? ... really a very honest opinion" "So, who are you? Why did you suddenly appear in my dream? And ... Am I really dreaming right now?" "* Laughs * for your first question, you can call me by the name of Scott, the demon of darkness that regulates lonely souls and leads them to peace." Scott, the demon of darkness? uh, demon? will i die? ¡­ and ... what do you mean by lonely souls? it''s true that I just ended my relationship with my girlfriend but that doesn''t mean that my soul emits a lonely aura that can summon demons, right? "And to answer the remaining two questions, I don''t know ~ maybe yes and maybe not, I have no obligation to answer them. But one thing is certain ... now your soul is meeting at one point with the soul of a boy you saw for a while ago, this also allowed me to interrupt your dreams at this time " "Interrupt ... my dream?" "Yup ~" what exactly is this demon talking about? if this is truly a dream, I should be awake if I feel pain, but since a while ago I have pinched my thigh but I still haven''t awakened from this dream. seeing me who was a little confused, scott continued his words while softening his face that seemed to want to bully a small child. "And because events like this are very rare, I finally thought to make you help finish my work" "Job? What do you mean by work? Will you kill me if I reject it?"Did you know this story is from Royal Road? Read the official version for free and support the author. "Take it easy, I won''t kill you, and please don''t show your face as if to say I will lie to you" "So you won''t kill me if I refuse your request, right?" "Of course I won''t kill you. It''s just that I won''t return your spirit to your body, so whatever your choice, your chance of being killed is very small" "if my soul does not return, it is the same as death for me! And ... what do you mean by ''whatever your choice, your chance of being killed is very small'' ... So you mean in the end I will still have the chance to be killed?" "Exactly" Seriously anyone please wake me up !!! give up on the situation, finally I will try to calm my mind for a moment. silent. that''s all I do. trying to find a profitable solution for me, but in the end I could not think of anything that seemed to be beneficial to me. after I sighed a few times, I also asked Scott a question, "So ... what job do you mean?" "Oho ~ so finally you agree? It''s good then. Remembering the boy''s soul that I took at this time is so unique that he has such a strong feeling of hidden love that it makes me difficult to get his pure soul, I want you to give an end that can at least make the spirit of this boy calm. " "''the end that at least makes the spirit of this boy calm'', so what should I do? ... and one thing you must know, humans are not gods who can change the destiny that has happened and if my guess is right, isn''t the child is just a side character from the story of ''The Hero''s of Arsenial?'', how do I change his destiny? Wouldn''t it be faster if you went straight to the person who made this story to give a happy ending to this boy? " "* Laugh * ... don''t you know? All the stories that you humans enjoy, tell, and know are memories of the past that you forgot? ... and the past I mean is a past that comes from another dimension" it''s hard to digest what Scott said, I can only show a confused expression. so all the stories that I know come from other dimensions? ignore me, scott continues his words, "Take it easy, I''ll make sure your job is complete when the deepest desire of this boy is granted" "the deepest wish? ... in other words saying his feelings for the princess? isn''t that easy?" "* Smile *" "If that''s what you want, I''ll do it. But remember after that return my soul to my real body, do you understand?" "Then I will make a contract with you so that after you finish your assignment I will return you to your real body, and one thing you need to remember ... the devil never lies about a contract that is bound to him" *** As I changed positions to sit, I saw an octagonal red symbol in my right hand. maybe this is the symbol of my contract with Scott. really a troublesome devil. "Looks like I have to find a way out of this forest" while I stood up, I heard the sound of water flowing from my right direction. because I don''t have a clue or direction that can take me out of this forest, I finally decide to head to the sound of the water flow. I walked slowly because for me it would be dangerous if I met wild animals. at first I was a little confused with what kind of clothes I was wearing, but after I saw it, right now I was wearing a typical academy uniform on the movie ''the Hero''s of Arsenial''. the clothes I wear are a white uniform with long sleeves and there are blue flames on the arm. not only that in the chest I wore a red bandana cloth worn like cowboys in films. the pants I wear are white trousers. At least for me this is the pretty cool clothes I''ve ever used. about a few minutes walking towards the sound of the water, I finally saw some light reflected in front of me. I accelerated my pace and sure enough, I arrived at a very clear river with some fish swimming freely. if only I wasn''t in a situation that made me have to find a way out, I would have chosen to swim and catch the fish to eat. You really are a lucky fish my friend, don''t expect when we meet again you will still see the sunset. after I said something like a criminal in a story, I continued my journey along the river. I walked far enough until my forehead sweat. I don''t know how many minutes I''ve walked down the river, until finally I can see the end of the river beside me. at this time in front of me I saw a very wide lake and the scenery around it was very beautiful. I immediately ran toward the lake, and sat for a moment to get rid of my fatigue. seeing the flow of the river that finally collected in the lake made my throat thirsty. unable to refrain from drinking water, I immediately headed towards the lake to drink water, "Huh? Eh? I-this ... who is this damn face?" Chapter 04 - A Certain Meeting Chapter 04 - A Certain Meeting "Huh? Eh? I-this ... who is this damn face?" when I saw the reflection of a boy''s face that I didn''t know, I was a little confused because both his appearance and posture were different from my original body. the most characteristic feature of this boy''s facial appearance is the absence of anything special. but, if I have to say it, maybe the only interesting thing is the color of my golden eyes. the rest is very ordinary. Her black hair with bangs covering her eyes and ''bob'' or ''bowl'' hairstyles really look very outdated. are you serious? ... with a look like this how do I get the heart of a princess from a very big kingdom? if this is the way, it will become almost impossible thing to do. while holding my face with both hands, I could only be silent while sighing several times. because complaining is useless, I start trying various things. starting from the pose where I lift my bangs back with my right hand, to the pose that makes a man look masculine in front of a mirror. I tried various types of things that I knew to increase the attractiveness of the face of a boy who seemed to be a side character I had to help. it''s really a new challenge for me to pull all the things that can make my face now have more appeal. If I have to compare with my former good looks, maybe I will give my face a bad value now. "At this rate, I have to rearrange my plan, it seems the first thing I have to do is improve my appearance entirely." after I finished setting my goals, I took a sip of water several times to get rid of my thirst. resting for a moment behind the tree, I saw an object that resembled an apple in the tree that was where I leaned. the fruit is shaped more like a ''Love symbol'' when compared to apples, but on the one hand it has a unique color that is blue on the part that leads to the middle and red for the part that leads to the outer circle. after trying to jump several times, once again I feel annoyed with my current appearance. I feel this boy has a height below 170cm. this is also the reason I have difficulty reaching the fruit that has the shape of the apple. feeling tired, I sit down again. why is this boy short and tired easily ?! "Haaa ~ why should my life be like this" it seems like I''ve sat beside this lake for a few minutes. somehow I feel the air in this place is very fresh just by sitting next to this lake. a view full of purple, blue, and red flowers that surround the side of the lake looks like a concept of art. the blue sky reflected by the surface of the lake made me feel that this was amazing. not a normal sight that I can see every day.A case of theft: this story is not rightfully on Amazon; if you spot it, report the violation. "Why is this place so comfortable?" * Tap * * Tap * * Tap * when I will close my eyes, I hear a footstep that is heard running towards the lake. the footsteps stopped right behind the tree where I was leaning now. out of curiosity, I tilted my body and looked towards where the sound of footsteps stopped. on the lake side I saw a girl maybe around 12 to 13 years old using an academy uniform with long sleeves. white clothes and red cardigans that differentiate between the typical male and female student attire clothes look very suitable and fit the girl''s body from behind. a white skirt that covers nearly 80% of its legs looks to have a lace which makes the design of the uniform look pretty cute and has the impression of being liked by girls who wear it. very elegant uniform design but still emphasizes the feminine impression for the wearer. hmm? when I aimed my gaze to the girl''s back, I saw something that was quite shocking to me. the girl''s hair has silver color and looks very beautiful when standing beside the lake. the figure of the girl is like an artistic painting that can win an award. when the wind blows about the girl''s beautiful hair, I feel as if the girl''s hair is waving every strand of hair just to greet me. really a very stunning figure. "* hic * * hic * Uwaaa ~" "Eh? Wh-what? ... why is she suddenly crying?" While I was confused with the girl in front of me who suddenly cried, I remembered something. this scene is very similar to what I remember before my soul entered the boy''s body. but ... is my memory right? ... I don''t really remember it. when I silently thought about it, for the first time when my soul entered this body, I heard a voice that I remember very much. a soft voice whispered beside my ear. a voice that makes me think if I''m crazy? [What happens if ... at that moment I ventured to talk to the girl and comfort her?] eh? ... this voice ... I don''t think I''ll hear it again in here. "Haaa ~ looks like I have to do it ..." When I finished listening to what the voice whispered, I immediately stood up and walked towards the side of the lake in front of me to wash my hair. when my hair is wet, I take off the shoes I have worn since I woke up in the forest and slowly climbed the tree in front of me while trying not to cause a sound. after I managed to reach 3 pieces that resembled the apple, I went back down and set my breath for a moment. I looked at the girl who was still crying beside the lake. I also opened the cloth that was tied like a cowboy in my chest. after that, I open the top 3 buttons of my uniform and squeeze a little water on my chest. no matter how many times I see, my body still lacks attraction, even the muscles I have today are still not trained. besides, this body belongs to a child aged around 13 to 14 years. but at least I have done the preparation ... while I comb my bangs with the fingers of my right hand, I will advance to the battle-- "Saaa ~ Let''s conquer the fragile heart of a princess of the world''s largest kingdom" - a bloodless battlefield in which the only weapons I have are sweet words to penetrate the defenses of a girl''s heart begin. Chapter 05 - A Certain Day in the Forest Chapter 05 - A Certain Day in the Forest "Princess! Don''t run too far into the forest" "What if you fall later?" "Ehehe ~ just calm down ... if something happens to me Brandon and Fay can definitely handle it right?" "Princess ~ wait for me" "Brandon, speed up your pace ... other than that, as Brandon said princess, even though the forest around the academy is relatively safe, it doesn''t mean that the area around here is completely safe." "Muuu ~ I also know about it Fay, but look at that! Waaa ~ it is so cute ~ ¡­ Hurry Up or That eskegal will soon go farther away if you don''t hurry, Fay, Brandon" Ehehe ~ I''m very grateful because the weather today is very bright. it''s been a long time since I wanted to travel along the forest. besides, because the academy will start in 3 days I have free time. therefore, I took this opportunity to take a walk with my two escorts Brandon and Fay to walk through the forest around the academy area. as we walked, I saw an eskegal with gray fur jumping in front of me. eskegal itself is an animal that has a very small body that is the size of an adult''s palm. not only that, both his long ears and two small wings behind his back made this animal very adorable. Uwaaa ~ like what brother said ... Eskegal is very adorable ~ I really want to touch it ¡­ I want to touch it ... seeing the eskegal jumping even farther, I accelerated my pace. but because the skirt I wore had the length that covered my ankles made it difficult for me to walk through the forest, I was forced to step while lifting a little skirt I was wearing. "Wait for me little Eskegal ~ ahaha ~" fun. walking through the forest is very pleasant. maybe maybe because I don''t have much free time, it makes it difficult for me to feel like this. ever since I was a kid, I was required to learn many things to become a princess who didn''t embarrass my family''s name. To be honest it was all very tiring. muuu ~ why can he jump that fast? "Ah!" when I was transfixed to chase Eskegal, my feet stumbled by the roots of plants. this made me fall and my skirt was slightly torn at the knee. really painful. uuu ~ just a little more until I can touch it ... wa-wait for me, little Eskegal ~ seeing that the eskegal jumped away from me, I could only sit while watching the eskegal go away from me. although I feel disappointed because I can''t touch the small cheek of the eskegal, I try to stand up and continue my journey through the forest. but I realized one thing, Where''s Fay and Brandon? shouldn''t they be right behind me? "Brandon? Fa-fay? ... where are you?" while calling the names of my two bodyguards who were always with me since I was 3 years old, I didn''t get a reply from both of them. holding on to a tree trunk, I tried to stand up.This book was originally published on Royal Road. Check it out there for the real experience. "where are you? ... aw!" As soon as I will step forward, I feel a sting on my ankle. when I examined it, it seemed like my legs were dislocated. really painful. uuu ~ where are brandon and fay? because my legs hurt, I finally decided to sit for a while with the hope that brandon and fay could find me immediately. but no matter how long I wait, they both don''t arrive. * The sound of the leaves blowing by the wind * "Hiii-- ... What sound is that?" various insect sounds began to sound very clear to me. not only that the atmosphere of the forest which is increasingly quiet makes me scared. no matter how far I look, there are only trees and trees in front of me. like an endless region, only trees and bushes as far as I can see. i-it seems like I have to go back down the road I passed earlier ... standing slowly, I began to walk down the path I had passed while holding on to the trees I could reach. I lifted my left foot a little higher than the ground so as not to touch the ground because of the pain that kept haunting me. walk and keep going. however, as far as I walked, I did not find a way out of this forest. besides, since I walked back the road I passed, I didn''t see Fay and Brandon "W-did I take the wrong direction?" * Bird''s voice echoing * The more I stepped forward, I felt various animal gazes. how many times I look for the origin of the gaze, I can''t find the source. afraid. that''s the feeling that dominates me now. being in the middle of the forest itself like this makes me very scared. What if I can''t return to the academy before nightfall? What if I make Brandon and Fay worry? what if my brothers and sisters worry about me too? What if my father and mother worry about me? the more I thought about it, I felt the power that supported my body began to disappear little by little. before I realized it, tears had wet my cheeks. "* hic * ... * hic * ... Brandon ... Fay ... where are you? anyone ... please answer me ..." uuu ~ brother ... please help me ... while sobbing, I continued to walk straight while holding the tree near me. I understand that what I am doing now does not reflect the attitude of a princess. but I can''t help it. I''m very scared after all. as I continued walking, I saw a very dazzling sparkle right in front of me. the more I headed towards the arrival of the sparkle, I heard various animal sounds. starting from the sound of birds singing to the sound of crickets being heard by my ears. besides that, the more I stepped forward the trees around me were getting less and less. finally ... I can find my way back to the academy. at least that''s what I thought at first. but as soon as the surrounding forest began to disappear, all I saw in front of me was a lake with various vandelions surrounding the surface at the edge of the lake. vandelion is a flower that has blue and purple color and only blooms for a certain time. uwaaa ~ As soon as I saw the beautiful scenery in front of me, I forgot all the fears I felt just a moment ago. the animals pulled over to drink water, besides that I also saw some eskegal jumping towards the purple vandelion. silent. I just stared at the lake while I sat limp. as if the power left my body. really a very beautiful and soothing sight. "* hic * ... * hic * ... beautiful ~" the wind that was blowing so gently around the lake hit my hair several times. the longer I stay silent in this place, the more peaceful my mind will be. as if my anxiety was gone slowly, I heard a boy''s voice from behind me, - *The sound of an object falling * "... * hic * ... * hic * ... fruit?" "Yo! Can you get my fruit that fell near your feet?" "eh? ¡­ * hic * ... " "* Smile *" - the sound that will change my mindset about things I have never felt before.
