Chapter 265
Miabel Introduces a Friend to Grandma
“Wait... But... How? Huh?”
Even though it was hard for her to say anything, her mind couldn’t stop going.
Sweet moons... But just how did I die?
Mia’s tragic flaw was that she couldn’t stop herself from looking up her own cause of death. After the guillotine and poison had been used, what was next?
Would she go to sleep peacefully? Or one with a lot of violence? She was most interested in this part of her death.
She looked through the book quickly. And at the end, she read, “Bandits attacked me at night and killed me. Then wolves ate my body. This doesn’t seem like a good way to go at all...”
She gave a shiver. This picture wasn’t much better than the one of someone dying from poison and bleeding from every hole in their body. It could be even worse than the first one, which at least happened in bed.
“W-Well, I guess if I die before I get eaten, at least getting eaten won’t hurt... Still, how in the world did I get murdered by bandits?”
Mia was still the Princess of Tearmoon, even if she didn’t tell everyone every day. Keeping her as a hostage would be useful, but there was no mention of a ransom demand.
“...So they must have killed me before they could catch me. Was an arrow shot at me? Or knifed in the back? Ugh... Ooooh... Just thinking about it makes me feel sick...”
She walked shakily to her bed and fell face-first into it.
“...Why were bandits even after me in the first place?”
After reading the Chronicles again, she found out a few more things.
First, she had sneaked off Saint-Noel Island during the Holy Eve Festival and left. It seems that the bandits attacked her while she was galloping across the plains outside of the island on a horse.
“I see... Hm hm... Mmm...”
She read the important pages over and over again and then let out a long sigh.
“Nope. I still don’t know how any of this came about. What in the moons?”
She couldn’t even think of a reason why she would sneak out of Saint-Noel on Holy Eve. It seemed like such a crazy thing to do. What could have gotten her to act that way?
“I have the feeling it was for something stupid and silly... If I stay in the academy, there shouldn’t be any problems, though. If I’m careful and don’t leave the island, I should be fine...”
Rafina made Saint-Noel Island into a place where people could be safe. It was not easy to trespass into it.
Still, Mia couldn’t shake the feeling of worry that kept coming back.
It would happen on the day of the Holy Eve Festival, after all. The most people would come and go from the island at that time every year. Of course, to keep out would-be killers, everyone who came in would probably be closely watched.Vissit for updates
But what about the ones who are leaving? Couldn’t you hide in some kind of vehicle that was going away? What if she gave some money to a merchant behind his back and asked to go for a horseback ride in the evening? Could she get off the island by herself?
Perhaps.
But even if that is true, how did she die?
But that was back when she was still the selfish Princess of Tearmoon and could still get her way, so her complaint was worded in a very roundabout way.
Oh no, I’m onto you. You want to do the least amount of work possible. Who would have thought that the gods could also be lazy?
After giving this higher being a personality trait she didn’t know much about, she felt a connection to it. She felt like she could pat it on the shoulder and say, “I know how you feel, man.”
But because she was working so hard on her thoughts, she didn’t hear what Bel was saying.
“Oh, Miss Mia? Did you hear me?”
“Huh? Oh, uh... I wasn’t, no. I’m sorry about that.”
She sighed loudly and shook her head.
“So much is going on. I had to stop for a moment to get my thoughts in order. Could you tell me again what you were saying?”
“Okay. I was talking about how I became really good friends with someone I met over the summer. I’d like to tell you about her.”
“My! Bel, you made a friend? Certainly. I’d love to meet her.”
Mia quickly got out of bed and put on a soft, grandmotherly smile. As soon as Bel opened the door, the smile turned into a strained, twitching half-grin.
Especially since the young girl who walked in...
“Your Highness, it’s a pleasure to meet you.”
She smiled in the nicest way.
“I am the daughter of Duke Yellowmoon, who is a loyal servant of His Imperial Majesty.
I am Citrina Etoile Yellowmoon.”
Author’s Note:
* Setting disclosure for consideration
Mia’s reasoning is somewhat correct, but for the sake of those who want to think about it, some settings are disclosed. It will be a spoiler & it’s not science fiction, so it’s somewhat fuzzy... but if you’re interested, go ahead.
“Time Paradox and Resistance”
Basically, if a time paradox occurs in this story, correction power will work to correct it. The diary, the description of the princess, etc. have been rewritten with the correction power.
And depending on the time-shifted objects, there are those that are susceptible to the corrective force and those that resist to some extent and try to maintain their current shape.
Basically
Written character The resistance increases in the order of , and if it is a living thing, it will be almost unaffected. However, since it is not completely cut off from his own time axis, if he dies... As for “???”, it will continue to maintain its shape without being affected at all, but eventually it will be integrated into one time axis and processed as ~~, so the person in question will not notice it. .......
