Surviving As The Protagonist

Chapter 17: Rejected?

A bright morning had arrived, the girl rubbed her eyes then looked around, her gaze still twitching as she seemed to still be gathering lives.

It seemed that the sun was currently scorching, he was aghast and got up from his bed in a hurry.

Wait-wait..

Wasn't it..

“Hah? Didn't I sleep on the couch yesterday?” tanyanya weird.

“If not wrong yesterday the Crown Prince came looking for me right.” he said while remembering the events of last night.

Hem I don't know, the sofa looks neat like it's not used to sleep, was he just hallucinating last night because of the influence of drugs yesterday?

“But there are no nightmares.. I feel refreshed after waking up.”.

The eyes were also back sayu, ‘I only dream of heartbreaking things.’

Lucy pulls the bell tucked away on the nightstand and shakes it to call Flona, and the girl shows up after a few minutes.

“Ya Miss Lucy..” her mouth is approaching.

“I wake up like a slacker, why doesn't Flona wake me up?” tanyanya felt bad, he also thought about what the Marchionest Lagherta would be like in assessing his negligent attitude to time.

The girl shook her head, “Yang Mulia said Miss's class today was closed and told Miss to rest and recover Miss's health first.” explained Flona while looking down.

“Ah.. I don't feel pain anyway?” he said effectively asking.

“So morning Your Majesty visited, Miss's body is hot. and Miss looks restless.” he said as he led Lucy towards the dresser.

“I trim Miss's hair first yes.” say gently while reaching for the comb and tidying the mane skillfully. The girl just nodded.

‘Lho, why did Reygan visit? I guess he sleeps here.’ his mind is strange.

‘Third, to be called a dream, this is too real, besides my body feels pain because yesterday forced to fall asleep with the body tilted on the sofa.’ he said felt strange.

“If today is off, I can finally relax again even if only one day.” he said accompanied by a wide smile.

“Nona please wash your face first, I will prepare the bath water.” he said after carrying the water container, and the girl just complied while thinking this is very refreshing.

Although previously he was quite difficult to accept his new world, he was also actually very difficult to adapt in a new place like this stranger.

But the memory of Lucy's body is enough to help her, at least Lucy is quite grateful for it. Until in the end the girl was accustomed and over time enjoyed her life as a noble Lady.

It's just, ‘Death makes me unsettled.’

Now the girl was soaking in the bathub, accompanied by Flona who was pouring shampoo into her hair. The girl is also quite accustomed to following the routine of noble lady like this, where all the actions and needs are not done alone, but served by them.

‘At first things like this make me awkward anyway.‘ murmured inwardly.

‘When more than a year has passed, I did not expect the hunting ceremony held in the last year Lucy partnered with Sir Emillo, at that time, at least the real Lucy is still alive.’ hatch without energy.

‘Ah... what Sir Emillo thought when I met I asked his name again.I was too rash. whereas they had met.’ he continued feeling frustrated.

“Nona relaxes your muscles.” the nagging Flona who is massaging Lucy's head. “Ah alright, I had a chance to think about a few things.” he replied while closing his eyes.

‘If you think about it, I entered Lucy's body with her unfavorable condition. Flona says Lucy has been unconscious for 5 days. If you think the servants at the Count's residence always whispered about the hunt.’ thought suddenly.

‘They said, Miss they changed since that incident.’

The girl raised next to her eyebrows and thought hard, ‘Actually what happened to her in the hunt yesterday? Until Flona hopes Lucy forgets the incident.more.’.

‘You chose lost and pulled me into this world?’

He thinks all this makes sense.

‘And I can not fixate on the Novel I read myself. because everything does not go the same.’ assumption.

“Ah yes by the way, how about Sir Emillo.” he suddenly remembered something, and Flona just stared clumsyly, “Soal Miss Sheyra ya?” tanyanya.

“Yaa, what is the search about him there has been progress.” tanya confused considering until now Sir Emillo still has not said anything.

“Well Sir Emillo also sent a message to me, he said late-akhr this he could not keep Miss to meet some informants directly.” is clear Flona while pouring water into each strand of Lucy's mane slowly.

“So now Sir Emillo is not here?” tanyanya.

“No Miss.”

“Waah~ You guys are looking closer huh. Fits too.” timpal Lucy suddenly. And the brown unravel girl flushed out instantly, “No-nona! You mustn't say that, Sir Emillo will feel humiliated later! Anyway I'm just your personal servant, I won't dare-”

“You also remain a noble family right.” cut Lucy suddenly. ‘Well to say that, didn't the law of destiny tell Emillo to love Lucy? Seeing Flona's timid reaction like this made her smile.’

‘Yaa, Sir Emillo is handsome anyway.

“My mother is indeed a sister with Miss Mother, but I am still a commoner Miss. After all I will only live and support Miss with all my heart! I have not thought of getting married at alli~” he said accompanied by a wide smile.

“There is Flona.” he said while shaking his head.

“Nona silence!!” when Lucy did not want to be quiet.

“Ahh well~” his kekehny happy to prank Flona.

...***...

Lucy now only wears house clothes and sits on the bed, actually she wants to do some of these activities. Flona insisted on banning it.

So right now the girl is just sitting in bed and collecting the dissertation that Flona brought, she feels like a lazy girl.

“Says I have a fever. Am I pushing myself too hard to learn magic, or am I tired of studying science? I also did not expect to wake up when the sun was already scorching.” murmured strangely.

He can heal anything with his magic power, but he cannot bring the dead to life. If his body is like this, he can't do anything either. It means he has reached the limit of his ability, and in the novel too.. Lucy who looks strong, tough, and always looks okay it turns out to have a physical that is not so good.

‘So explain to me, all this time how can you not show your weakness in front of everyone? Well except about his love that claps one hand. Everyone already knows about it.’ slice at the end of the sentence.

“Entah why this feels bland.” he said while staring at the sweet food, the girl also got out of bed and went towards the balcony, there she closed both eyes and inhaled the air slowly. The wind brought the mane flying.

“If I could be like this every day.” he lamented with a sullen face.

“So this queen candidate actually wants to live with laziness huh?” someone's limp suddenly.

KYAA!

The girl was aghast and shouted in shock, she thought who it was just the Crown Prince suddenly appearing beside her.

“Your Majesty! you make me surprised..” cleanly while wiping his chest that terrace will hang.

“Is that?” tanyanya did not feel guilty.

“Ha.. besides you why enter my room at will.” replied the girl.

“Your room door is wide open, after all why Lucy is standing in front of the balcony.” her tone is worried.

“.... You're afraid I'll jump from up here?” tanyanya. Instead of answering, the man looked the other way.

“Take it easy, I cannot escape Your Majesty. After all the letter of the agreement said if I broke the agreement, then my father would die burning with magic.” he said accompanied by a forced smile.

“No, not like that.” refuted the man who inexplicably had his expression look upset.

She chuckles, so the reason Lucy stays by her side is because of this, in addition to the scary thing is that Lucy also survives because she loves him. So the point is, all the flan he planned for this dive fell apart.

The girl sighed in annoyance, why is this agreement that heavy so much that it must involve magic? And why is it only Lucy that needs to be emphasized?

‘So if the Crown Prince is breaking, is it okay?’ pasrah.

Lucy daydreamed, last night the real Lucy gave her a dream, where there was Count Barayev and His Majesty the King, not to forget the Crown Prince who was beside her.

Count Barayev was seen slicing one of his fingers and dripping his blood onto the covenant paper protected by a powerful magic circle.

‘If you think about it, why did they get to her.. were they really afraid that this girl would go on the run?’ pepas wonder.

Why didn't Lucy's father tell her that, was he afraid to make her daughter worry?

This is strange, but Lucy is a girl who has unique magic power.

“Yeah, in the end I have to face the altar yes.” he said unconsciously, because from then on the girl just daydreaming alone.

“Sorry?” ask the man with a shrunken forehead.

“Ah.. no.I mean-I can't wait for that day.” he replied in a panic.

“Not you refused this wedding huh?” ask the man, Lucy screeched in annoyance. ‘What does it want?’ ketus.

“Yah. however I am not given another option here.” he said with a small smile.

The man's face looks strange. “So you have to be with me.”

“Ya.?” tanyanya's confused.

“Forget it.” he said as he turned around and left, but shortly afterwards the man came back to inspire him. The girl simply stared at her puzzling behavior, deftly The man stuck his palm on the girl's forehead intending to check her body temperature, and the man squealed in annoyance.

“Still hot, you can't move much. Come back to bed.” his scolding while lifting Lucy like a bundle of sacks.

“Heup! What the hell are you!” he said nauseous, the girl hit the man's back several times but was ignored.

‘Instead of being healthy fast, you hauled me like this stuff makes me dizzy to know!’ he felt nauseous.

It did not take long, finally Lucy back in bed. ‘Then the breath of air alone should not, anyways I do not feel my body hot tuh.’ criticism in the heart.

“Rest.” his timpus while turning around, The man was about to leave his room. But Lucy snickered his wrist. “Wait!” suddenly stopped.

He fell silent and turned to him, “What's wrong?” ask the man confused. For him this is a rare thing, because usually Lucy will tell him to quickly go from his room.

“Begini, he said.you received a letter from Lady Chevelle's birthday party invitation yes.” slowly, Lucy's face looks agitated, both fingers from earlier did not want to be silent other than squeezing the blanket. He thought that the Crown Prince would refuse his offer to go with him to Sheyra's celebration party as a Partner?

“Oh the Baron's Princess.” he said he did not seem interested in this topic of conversation.

“.... ” Lucy is speechless. The girl just stared with her mouth open.

‘Si the Baron's Princess? What kind of reaction it is, but in the future she is the girl you crave tuh’

“Yaa, will you attend it?” asked the girl curiously, her fingers were now scratching her non-itchy hair.

“He asked me to be his Partner.” he replied expressionlessly, The man looks to sigh and throw his face.

“WHAT?! Shameless as hell yes to the princess BARON class girl!!”

‘Ups!! I'm flabbergasted! Why must this man in front of me!’ he beat his mouth a few times.

“Huh? ( ⁇ )” deftly the young man turned towards the girl, but right now the female iu was just smiling sweetly as usual.

“Did I hear wrong?” tanyanya's confused.

“Sorry?” ask the girl back.

“???” His facial expression showed such a question mark.

“Ahh.. no Your Majesty, I'm just upset. Because he has demeaned me by not sending one invitation only to me.” he replied accompanied by a bitter look.

“Clearly sih.”

“What?!”

“No.”

“(╬ Ò ‸ Ó)”

This time the man laughed, and Lucy just frowned strangely. “You ate wrong huh?” ask him with a face that looks not bad.

“No, my food is always well served by the palace kitchen chef.” her successful reply made Lucy want to hit her face. ’Gruesome.’ Inner that Youth.

“Alright, so what does Lucy want?” he asked while sitting in front of his bed, his hand was now raised to scramble the top of the girl's head.

‘Peka kayak gini dong from earlier!’ decihnya.

“Oke first I want you to reject his offer. but that is impossible yes.” his dejected now gloomy face.

‘He must have accepted it yes. they are soulmates.’ he complained resignedly.

“Why impossible? without you asking for it I have sent a rejection letter.” he replied smoothly, the girl rounded her eyes great, she did not believe the words of the man.

“Why do you do that.” tanya feel impossible.

“Why did Lucy ask that?”

“Hah?”

“Isn't it clear because I'm your fiancee? Why did I accept another Lady's invitation? Anyway it seems lately he has been acting rude to my fiancee.” he said accompanied by a slanted smile.

‘Lho... this is different.‘.

“Me, will Lucy attend the party as my partner?”

“What?” tanyanya still silently stared. It's too sudden and it's quite difficult to make him understand the current circumstances.

‘Loh-loh why is it like this? I didn't hear wrong, she rejected Sheyra?’

‘APA?’

‘WHY?!’

‘I did not put more expectations when my request was allowed to be rejected, but I was more unexpected when the man rejected his future girlfriend!’
