“So, ugh, in the end… pfft, you were imprisoned?”
Valer was covering his mouth and leaning over while he spoke .
He said he would listen to me seriously! In times of confusion, I thought he was the one I could trust, the one to listen through my stories . But now, it seemed like he was holding back his laughter instead, which made me yell .
“Don’t laugh at this, Valer, if you don’t want to die . ”
I had undoubtedly warned him not to laugh, but when I said what happened, he still snickered out loud .
As I heard him gasping for air in between laughs, I started to imagine choking him .
I really wanted to do it, for real!
Now, he was on the floor, clenching his stomach and rolling . I wanted to kick him as punishment, but Sanse, on the other side, asked seriously .
“What is the reason?”
“No dating!”
“Oh my god!”
Sanse seemed shocked .
The reason made Valer laugh even louder . Seeing him hit the floor with his hand really made me want to yell out loud .
I knew Sanse was the only one I could trust most . I felt proud of him . I promised that if I could go to a party safely and live to tell the tale, I would definitely speak glorious stories about Sanse .
Of course, Valer was like the worst part of humanity .
Cito was over the window, clicking his tongue with an irritated expression .
“Your Majesty is really something, to do that to a fully grown daughter . ”
“I know!”
Right, that was what I was saying!
Thrilled with his words, I stood up .
Right! That was what I wanted to say! I was all grown up! No, I was never a kid to begin with . My mental age was different; how long did I have to stay like this?
“It’s really crazy and unexpected, but my father is the enemy, so I can’t do anything about it . Ah, really, wah!”
As I grabbed my head and screamed, Sanse took a step away from me . After living with hysteria for a day or two, it seemed like everyone had gone sick . I was the elegant and graceful princess in front of others, but I never had to hold that act in front of my childhood friends, so after seeing a lot of wicked behavior in our childhood, I was sure they wouldn’t bother with my tantrums .
I stopped pulling on my hair and sat down on the couch again . I was really nervous . No matter how much I thought, I couldn’t develop a brilliant idea to overcome the situation .
“I should have learned how to use a sword . ”
“There are so many people here who would protect you; why a sword?”
Cito frowned at my words . Sweeping away my messy hair, I screamed .
“So I can fight with my dad with a sword . Did you think I would harm myself? Uh, as a threat, even that could work well, but dad might feel hurt . That man is subtly delicate!!”
“He is related to you after all . ”
Cito shrugged while saying that .
Meanwhile, the maids ran over to adjust my messy hair . Only a few people said it, but it was unusual to see a princess of a country with messy hair running around like a crazy bitch . I sighed, and Sanse scooted over to me .
“If it was someone else, they would have been killed . ”
“You get away with things because Your Majesty is on your side . ”
I wasn’t feeling good, not a little bit .
They were telling me one or two reasons why I was blessed . Although I was too irritated to understand it in my current situation, I knew that .
It wasn’t that I didn’t love my dad .
However, he was too unreasonable .
It had been so long since the palace was filled with Fall Star Knights and Winter Moon Knights . The fact that the twins and Cito were in the room was proof of that .
Everything was being done .
I couldn’t do anything about the irritation welling up in me as I looked outside . No, shouldn’t a knight be defending the country?
Using them to lock up his daughter? The country is ruined . It has to be ruined .
I sighed as I thought about the future of this country, but Valer, who was behind me, laughed . Placing his hands on my shoulder, he said .
“Would you like to be loved?”
I took a heavy breath .
With a smile as bright as I could manage, I looked back at Valer .
“Keep talking like that; maybe I could show you how fast your life ends in my hands . ”
“… I am sorry, princess . ”
As if he didn’t want to die, Valer immediately removed his hands from my shoulder .
Anyway, I had to threaten him to make him listen .
Glaring at Valer, I fell into deep thoughts .
“Confinement at this age . I didn’t commit any crime . Ugh, this is messed up!”
It would be less unfair if I were confined for sinning, but I didn’t do anything! I even said that I didn’t want to do anything! I worked hard every day and struggled for the peace of the country more than anyone else . How could he do this to me?
Me! Every time dad got angry, I stopped him!
Whenever Ferdel came up with a policy, I would be the first one to approve it!
Ugh? At the same time, I devoted my body to help the country and the people, but for me to be placed in like this?
The more I thought about it, and the more I remembered his words, the more unfair it felt, which made Valer suddenly ask .
“But if that was what the Emperor wanted, then shouldn’t you be forbidden from meeting us too?”
Pathetic .
Snapping back at him, I asked .
“Are you a man?”
The three of them went silent . Valer answered back quite seriously .
“I am a man . ”
It was true that their gender was male, but the man I wasn’t just talking about gender . We had known each other since our birth and saw each other in diapers . Rather than a man, they were like brothers…
Well, when the relationship was like that of siblings, the emotions one felt differed .
Ah, just the thought alone was making me nervous .
“So you are a woman, after all, huh?”
Seeing Valer on the verge of crying, Sanse mocked him . Although it felt good to hear, I couldn’t help but realize how angel-like Sanse had been .
There really was no one like Sanse .
I was about to go over and tease Valer a little more, but then Assisi came into the room right away .
Once I saw Assisi…
“Assisi!”
Yesterday, once I returned from the dining hall and was trapped in my room, my dad called Assisi over .
Once I caught Assisi, I began to bombard him with questions .
“Do you know anything about the situation? Don’t you think that this is unfair? Can an Emperor do this?”
Assisi frowned .
“It isn’t right to speak like this about Your Majesty, but I certainly think that this is too much . ”
“Right? And…”
“But . ”
Assisi continued… Huh? But?
The dry feeling in my throat spread . I had a bad feeling .
“I would have preferred if the princess didn’t do anything . ”
Why? Why did I always get the premonition right for the wrong things in life?
Assisi’s expression seemed stern, and that only made me feel worse .
No, when did I ever say that I was getting married!?
When did I do that!? Things just looped into a colossal mess; there was no person I could lean on .
Assis’s quiet gaze leaned on me . He clearly seemed angry at me . This was unfair! How could they do this to me?
“I am going crazy, really!”
As I grabbed my head, Sanse and Valer shouted .
“Ria is exploding!”
“Woah, everyone, run away!”
“I really want to kill you now!”
Passing by them, I walked towards the couch and sat down . Assisi looked at me and then went away .
Assisi, bad!
He must have met my dad . My good Assisi couldn’t do this to me .
Yes, he was doing this because of my dad . Dad was horrible!
My dad was bad; as if curious, Sanse asked .
“But for some reason, you just let him punish you? Didn’t you fight back like you normally do?”
“Right . You ran away?”
As I bit my thumb, I sighed ultimately .
It wasn’t like I didn’t think of fighting back like I always did .
“I learned from my dad that fighting back isn’t good through experience, and fighting back would eventually find its way back to me . ”
The three of them seemed lost . It seemed that they felt pity for me, well, moving on .
Still, I evolved from the time I was a child, so did my dad . After all, he couldn’t overcome his daughter’s charm, but I had to come up with a countermeasure…
Right .
This was the time for me to think big .
“Anyway, since I have a father who lives alone in the world, I need to get used to this; one day, I will be able to get back at him . ”
At my words, Valer coly asked .
“So, Ria, are you dating the man?”
“Who said anything about that?!”
“Ah, ah, ah! Save me!”
I had to beat the guy once .
I hit him once .
A few hits were enough for Valer to flee . I wasn’t really in the mood to follow him for another hit, so I just went back to my spot .
“I have been holding myself back for years, so that was a big blow!”
Cito seemed shocked at my words .
“Everyone who says that the Princess of Agregiant is quiet and modest should reflect . ”
“Not reflected . They should pay a fine for thinking wrong about her . ”
“Right . Guilty for believing the wrong facts . ”
These guys…
This time, I wanted to punch Valer and Cito at once, but Sanse suddenly raised his hand . I nodded, letting him ask his question .
“So, what’s your plan?”
Plan .
Nothing as of now, but I wanted to do something about it . In the meantime, my heart was telling me to do something soon .
Just thinking about this entire situation made me sigh .
I leaned back and let the sofa comfort me .
My dad was trying to lock me up so that I couldn’t leave his grasp .
It didn’t matter to me when I was a child because I was innocent, but I was all grown up now, and things change with age .
Even before that, I always had an adult’s brain with a child’s body, but the situation was different now .
I had to go into a relationship and live a life of my own; not everything had to be about my father . I couldn’t always be under my dad’s shadow, but I did want to be in safe hands . When my dad acted like this, I always felt more like a pet than a daughter .
I knew that parents didn’t like it when their children suffered, but this was paranoia and obsession .
If I was a know-nothing princess, this might have been good, but I was not that! I was an independent person .
What was I supposed to do?
Until now, I had lived the way my dad wanted me to .
Pretending to know nothing, not hearing anything, pretending to see nothing .
But to do more of this in the future? Right, it would be annoying . For how long should I endure? What if I lived under my dad’s word until he died? Then what should I do? At least, he would have to tell me what I was supposed to do when left all alone .
There had to be some basic education method .
I could do nothing without my dad in this world, but what should I do when something bad happens?
I couldn’t live like this forever .
After a lot of agonies, that was my conclusion .
Dad said that I needed to just be with him and let him take care of everything .
However, my opinion differed . If there was anything I really wanted, then I liked working on it . It was cliché, but it was the right thing to do . The results would only be worthy if it worked .
Even if my dad gave me the whole world, would it mean anything to me?
Eventually, when my dad disappeared, everything would end for me .
Besides, I didn’t want to bother my dad anymore .
I couldn’t always live as a daughter to him . I had lived in this world as a person named Ariadna .
Now, I wanted to work on what my dad gave me .
However, this situation made it impossible .
Right, impossible .
“… I am going to run away . ”
“WHAT?”
The three of them seemed shocked and doubted their own ears, but my decision was firm .
Right, let’s go all the way to the end .
“I am going to run away . ”
The stillness settled in the room . The three went silent for a while and finally waved at me .
“Die well . ”
These bastards!
