Vol. 2 Chapter 36: The Princess's Surprising Abilities

Rogan raised his guard up the moment the princess launched a surprising barrage of attacks. Never in the slightest did he expect she would immediately try to attack him this mercilessly. Her speed and magic were beyond what he had expected, not to mention her firebolts packed a serious punch.

But that was not the most troublesome, her movement speed was. It was absurd that she suddenly was able to do such actions. And she even taunted him, it almost made his jaw drop.

At first he ...

Vol. 2 Chapter 35: The Fallen Chef & Fighting Rogan

Hunger, stomach in pain. A stench of urine emanated in the air. Dusty and cold floor. Dark and barren cell. No light from the outside was able to come through to this underground prison.

The torches were unlit, likely it was daytime outside. But the young woman inside the prison cell would never be able to see the light of the sun in this place. It was hopeless.

She wore ragged clothes — might as well describe it as a stepping mat. Her hair was rough and muddy, and itchy as well...

Vol. 2 Chapter 34: Estevan's Efforts

Right before the strike of noon, Estevan entered the library with an assorted set of flowers in his hand. His smile was wide in excitement, he was confident that Estelia would warm up to him today. After all, he cooked the best food he could.

It was the dish that Estelia said she loved so much the last time he cooked for her, and that was a long time ago. He knew Estelia would be thrilled to taste them again.

When he entered, he only found her servants in the lobby. He timed his e...

Vol. 2 Chapter 33: Spells From the Grimoire

The next day, my father and I entered the library and made our way to the grimoire. We passed by other pedestals where other important-looking books were placed. However, the major feature here was the thick silvery book wrapped in chains.

Only the two of us were here, it would have been alright if there were others like my servants. However, the book will be unsealed today, so it was decided to not let others come near.

We stopped before an extravagant pedestal where the grimoire...

Meditation is a lie.

Yeah, that’s how we’re starting.

Now, why would I say that? Because I was at the moment trying it out, expecting that I would feel something, but nope! Not wooorking for me, what a waste of time.

Don’t I sound bitter? Well I am bitter right now.

I heard it was effective to others, but why not for me? Ugh!

Fuck this shit what am I even doing. I am trying to think and get a peace of mind!

Vernon even tried calling me from t...

There were still a few staff here, so maybe driving Vernon off would be useless. But not completely, the staff here can’t touch and hinder me. But Vernon could. I wanted him out of here for a while to make things go my way smoothly.

I made my way to the room where my mother was working. When I arrived at the door, turning the knob, I discovered it was locked as expected. No problem.

Casting the barrier spell, I shaped it akin to a pair of thin slips of metal, to be specific, loc...

Vol. 2 Chapter 30: Secret Hidden From Me (Part 1)

About a week had passed, I wanted to get the major stuff done first. So I have been focusing more on my magical abilities while doing minimal social interaction. In other words, I have become an introv— ahem… well, I was always like that so… no wait, that was the me in this world, I mean “Estelia.”

Of course, I did the usual. Dancing practice, academics, and music. Nothing noteworthy really happened except for the last one. Lanivia suggested I can sing an original song during ...

This is cringy as fuck!

Nothing has ever frustrated me so. This sucks! Why can’t I design an outfit that doesn't incite this disgust within me? Dammit, crea...

Vol. 2 Chapter 28: Locking Herself in Her Room

Lucious could only watch as Estelia rush away. He might have imagined this scenario once or twice, but it didn’t help him feel any better. No, it was worse than he had imagined. Was he too hasty about it?

Should he have done it differently? Why did he even do it so directly?

He didn’t know what came to him, but he just expressed what he wanted, said what he wanted. How else should he have done it? Maybe he should have just been slower and gentler about it.

But… View Post

Vol. 2 Chapter 27: Would You Consider Going Out With Me?

Lucious glanced at Rogan who was beside me for a second, I turned to look at Rogan to see him wearing a small smile, but I could tell he was amused.

I returned my beautiful and innocent eyes to Lucious.

“Lucious… hi.”

“Hello, Estelia…” he glanced at my book. “Is it a bad time?”

“... Um, no. This is merely a casual read.”

“Quite a thick one.”

“Well, it is the history of the kingdom.”

“I see.”

He awkwardly looked aw...

Vol. 2 Chapter 26: Royal Disappearances

There were only very few people here in the library, unlike the last time I was here when it was only me and my gang. But I guess after the traitor was found, there wasn’t much need for tight security such as keeping the staff out of the library just for me.

As I made my way amidst the shelves, I saw at the corner of my eyes the three looking at each other. There must be hesitation, but it shouldn’t be that surprising for Vernon and Mera since this had already happened before.

Vol. 2 Chapter 25: Embarrassment

I heard knockings on the door and I groaned awake.

Aaaagh, I need more sleep. Time is too short…

But, I can’t be like this… If I fell into the temptation of falling back asleep, I would be a failure.

But it feels so good to sleep… but I can’t.

I forced myself up and opened the door with droopy eyes. The first face I saw was the cute Mera, I have gotten used to seeing her face first thing every morning. I then noticed that both Vernon and Rogan had ar...

Vol. 2 Chapter 24: The Princess Tries to Design an Outfit

The day after I requested to have a tailor sent for me, I decided to start sketching the ideal clothes I would use in times of need. The schedule for the tailor’s arrival may have yet to be made, it was still better to get sketching right away. Although I could just have him design it, I think it would be hard for me to explain and describe what I want to him.

Plus, he wouldn’t think that I would need it for fighting, not that I would tell him. I will be spending the night thinking ...

Vol. 2 Chapter 23: The Young Man Who Has A Crush

The moment the door clicked closed, the two men left inside the office sighed loudly in relief, their shoulders drooping.

“I almost had a heart attack when she was attempting to leave.”

Lucious put his hands on his hip as he endeavored to let out his fear.

“Yeah, that was a close call. It would have been too difficult for you if she had exited the room.”

The crisis was only averted when Eleden insisted for Estelia to stay. Otherwise, if she left without anythin...

Vol. 2 Chapter 22: Requesting New Dresses

After breakfast, I returned to studying as usual. Very soon, the library should be finishing its repairs, so I should be able to study there for non-dangerous things. I was wanting to read a few things there anyway.

While I was reading the magic book, Mera was training on her physical enhancement, she seemed fond of it so I let her be. She was making more progress than I was anyway, so it could be a sign that was her thing. I have been slowly making progress on the enhancement though, t...

Vol. 2 Chapter 21: Music's Back

Good morning. What a good morning indeed. I had decent progress with my magic spells than with physical enhancement. Yesterday I tried doing the technique, but as expected I didn’t progress that much, I was like a baby making her first steps and falling off after just one. Needless to say it sored my arm.

Therefore, I decided to practice my magic spells. I focused more on healing spells since I wanted to use the spell to at least soothe my arm so I can perform more physical enhancemen...

Vol. 2 Chapter 20: Rogan Dorien

Rogan made his way to their usual hanging grounds — meaning the courtyard where they usually train or do some stuff. He preferred to call it a place to hang out since well, it was basically a place where he can hang out when nothing else to do, and he also barely comes back home, and he preferred not to.

It was more fun here and less annoying.

His excited steps were a bit loud, but that was a voluntary action, which caught the attention of the common soldiers and knights. He wan...

Vol. 2 Chapter 19: Cooperation Realized (Part 2)

I glanced back at my two servants for a moment before following inside. After Rogan closed the door, his smile vanished from his face, likely realizing the same as I. I sat down in front of Father’s desk while Rogan remained standing.

His eyes as I looked at him, and him at mine, seemed to say “We’re fucked, aren’t we?”

Were we? I don’t know yet.

Also, um, aren’t you going to sit down, dude?

Maybe that’s how things work since father merely sat down and ...

Thank you!

I want to give my big thanks to my Patrons who have supported me. Thank you so much for the support!

Because of your support I was able to save up money to buy a PC(Desktop), even though I still wasn't able to complete the parts since the hardware was quite expensive, I'm still making progress. I am grateful to everyone! Once again, thank you! I hope for your continued support.  :)

Vol. 2 Chapter 18: Cooperation Realized (Part 1)

When my arm was a bit sore that time, right about nightfall the redness had mostly subsided, which was fortunate. I don’t have to worry about my family noticing what I just did, except if they use their keen eyes to watch me. Quite a weird thing that they would just closely look at my state all of a sudden, but I wouldn’t be surprised if they did. Then of course they would notice what’s wrong with their precious and cute daughter, that is me.

Honestly, I am a beautiful girl, I sho...

Vol. 2 Chapter 17: The Sealed Thunderwrath (A Short Side Story)

There was a plain adequately lit chamber filled with chains attached to the metallic walls. A small amount of electrical current littered the air only to be absorbed by the metal chains. The floors were clean, the ceiling plain, and windows nowhere to be seen.

It was almost similar to a prison cell. No, it was precisely a prison made especially for one. A specially sealed chamber where not even insects or rodents were able to enter, only having small vents to allow air to get in and out...

Vol. 2 Chapter 16: Foreteller (Part 2)

There a person was lying sideways on the bed facing towards the window. A girl that appeared to be in her mid-teens, a beautiful girl with a fairly short height. She had long silky orange hair and fair skin.

On top of her head were orange furry ears of an animal, as well as a pair of long furry and fluffy orange tails behind her waist, both reminiscent of a fox.

She was the person referred to as the Foreteller, a beastman and a fox type — an incredibly rare type of fox beastman ...

A group of carriages crewed by elves entered through majestic open gates, flanked and installed upon curved sturdy trees colored with green leaves. There was quite a traffic on the way inside the city surrounded by forests.

All manner of creatures can be seen walking on the road. There were elves, beastmen, centaurs, a few dwarves, and also a few satyrs.

The group of elves was instantly allowed inside without any tolls since the guards had already recognized that the head of the g...

Vol. 2 Chapter 14: I will do it even with the smallest freedom

As my maid and I sat together side by side, Vernon explained his physical enhancement technique with a resigned sigh, giving us a verbal warning that this would be a bit dangerous if something went wrong. He warned that we will experience pain in the process, and the amount would vary.

I’m fine with a bit of pain, but I don’t know about Mera. Well, it’s just pain anyway, I’m sure she can bear it.

Physical enhancement, unlike normal magic casting, has mana used within the b...

Vol. 2 Chapter 13: Finally Giving My All To Dancing

Finally finished with breakfast, I made my way to the training hall. The large hall could be used for special occasions and was spacious enough to be used as a dance floor for my training.

I dislike dancing, but I guess I have no choice but to do what I can. I don’t want to be scolded again by Eleanore, no one likes being reprimanded at, right?

Ah, breakfast by the way was okay. Only okay. But there was a bit of improvement, I think, maybe just a coincidence. Which reminds me, F...

“Hey Eleden! You saw that, right? She willingly spoke to me!”

Eleden grinned at the excitement and joy that his friend and assistant, Lucious Vekenas, was showing. His friend’s eyes were wide and bright with spirit and his cheeks almost flushed. He was like a child finally noticed by his crush.

“Yes yes, I saw everything.”

Eleden was amused at seeing his long-time friend acting this way, and at the same time feeling wonder at why Estelia suddenly decided to give a ...

“Well, he was acting a little weird earlier. Did you perhaps mention something to him that should be put to my attention?”

Vernon smiled.

I exited Father’s office, intending to return to my usual chambers of study immediately because I want to think more about the situation. The side objective may have been satisfied after the ambush I devised encountered oppositions that I was hoping for, the main objective still failed.

Not everything was a wasted effort, but there sure were some wasted efforts. More than that, now I’m more troubled about the possible strength of my enemies. If one elf was able to face down that man...
