Surviving As The Protagonist

Chapter 20: The Hunt of the Year Yesterday (2)

“It should not be this.” said the young man while clenching his wrist, he felt disbelief in the situation that occurred at this time.

‘Should Miss smile welcoming my gift.’ he said with a blank look.

After the hunt was over, he ran over to the place where the noble ladies gathered while drinking tea. But after being looked at and noticed here and there, he did not find the existence of the girl, even the current atmosphere felt strange.

‘Why does everything look panicked like this?’ tanyanya confusion.

‘Where's the phone?’

‘Why does that woman also not exist?’ his inner self finds Lucy and Sheyra equally missing.

The man was quite washed away for a long time in his daydream, until a familiar scream appeared and successfully broke his daydream. He heard the sound of Lucy screaming hysterically elsewhere.

“ARGHHH! NO!”

“Nona!!”

The scream that sounded in pain was enough to distract him, he ran a little into the forest to see a crowd of invited guests and servants there, he ran a little, in the end he was transfixed and frozen when the glare of his sharp eyes found someone limp on the ground, his net shaking when looking at this kind of shocking scene.

The sight of Lucy lying limp on the ground crying, as if showing how sick and tormented she was, she said, the woman was just writhing with her entire body that looked dry and paled as if her strength had been drained away.

Soon, now the woman was just silently glued with her adorable gaze, “Sakit.. stop..” her shrill look dying.

The young man gritted his teeth a great sign of anger, a fog of anger was now beginning to envelop his body. He is visibly upset when all this crowd is only there to think of Lucy as a spectacle instead of going in search of reinforcements.

‘For a long time Miss could have died! Actually she was in pain because of what?!’

Unwilling to take time, Emillo rushes to break up the crowd and holds Lucy with the intention of taking her away, but the corner of his eyes was now turned to look at the same red-haired woman who was lying helplessly on the ground. It's just that there's a slight difference between them, that she doesn't look as hurt as Lucy. The girl with red eyes only lay unconscious at the corner of her bloody lips.

‘Not seen from his clothes.it looks like he vomited blood.’ Assumption Emillo with a serious look.

But there is one question that arises in his mind, “Why is the woman in the same place as Miss Lucy?” confused muttering.

Coinciding with Sir Emillo trying to step away from the crowd, the Crown Prince appeared suddenly with a worried look and ran towards him. The young man named Crylo Emillo was just a little chuckle, he felt like this was the right thing to leave to the Crown Prince.

Because his little heart thinks, ‘Lucy is his fiancee.’ But instead of coming to him, Sir Emillo was only wide-eyed when he found His Majesty Reygan running past him, as if he had never seen the sprawled Lucy dying on his lap.

‘Why did you even run and hold the woman? You are more worried about her than Miss Lucy, who is your own fiance?!’ it's in the heart.

The young man with the sapphire netra just silently stared at the warmth of the Crown Prince who was worried about Lady Chevelle who was stiffened. For some reason, for the first time in his life, Sir Emillo felt a sense of disappointment towards someone he had always admired up to this point.

...***...

Lucy's dying sprawl is unlikely to require a doctor's treatment, as it will only take time in vain. As a favor to His Majesty, he ordered the great Holy Temple Priest to heal Lucy, even though the girl was not fully healed.

At least after receiving the holy power from the priest, Lucy now looks more comfortable and breathes well. Even though the bad news is Lucy hasn't come to her senses.

A witch from the magic tower intervenes to help investigate this incident, but one fact she discovers is Lucy with her magic energy drained. No, his dying body had only a little bit of his strength left. If his mana had really reached its limit, the woman could have lost her life.

Thousands of questions flowed about this incident. But unfortunately, Lucy who was already human just silently pecked like an empty body without a soul. As night approached, Lucy simply cried out hysterically with rags, “Darkness gnaws at my soul!”

The king sitting on the throne just looked at him with an intimidating gaze from up there.“So why did Lady enter the forest filled with wild animals?” his Majesty's words were accompanied by a feeling of disbelief in Miss Sheyra's statement.

“No.. I— just want to pick flowers for His Majesty Reygan.” With a strange face.

‘She was surprised?’ inner Emillo felt strange.

“Sheyra..” sahut Crown Prince by looking at him fragile. The young man was about to help Sheyra stand up, as from earlier the girl just knelt down as if being treated like the main suspect in this case.

But this action successfully reaped criticism from His Majesty Raja.“Keep your attitude Crown Prince!” he said sharply, not forgetting The middle-aged man noted it did not like.

“For what did Miss give dirty flowers that were picked carelessly to my Son? Moreover, Miss already knows, my Son will soon be officially engaged to Lady Barayev.” said Riana with a cynical gaze, she is the 3rd concubine of the king who ascended the throne to become queen. Although she is not Reygan's real mother, her feelings for the child are very warm.

Hearing the statement, Sheyra was increasingly made to wave.“I— only.. no. I just want to give it because lately His Majesty Reygan is being nice to me. I am also the victim of Your Majesty! Why are you even cornering me like this?!” tanyanya was desperate. He said the sentence while patting his chest which gave an emotional impression.

“Dad?! Didn't you say you'd only ask Miss Sheyra?! Why did you corner it like this?!” the chirps don't like it.

Sir Emillo who had been silent beside him just silently stared flat. ‘You behave like you are not. Who is this Your Majesty?’ tanyanya. Why cold men seem to be so attentive to Sheyra lovingly, when they have just met in the space of one month.

“At a time like this you call me Dad?! What's really going on with your head?! You're defending a girl who's about to defile your own fiancee's name? All this time when she was sick what were you doing? You didn't even go see him.” King spray bertubi.

The Crown Prince was now silent while looking down, his face a little pale. “I feel my head throbbing.” he said slowly.

Hearing the King's statement, Sheyra just lowered her head with her sobs that were increasingly breaking. “Ck.”

‘What is it? I didn't see wrong? At first glance she just looked down from crying, but-’

‘He grits his teeth?’ The mind of Sir Emillo who had been secretly watching his movements.

“Your Majesty, the woman has done immoral things by demonizing our future queen candidate.” whispered Riana who had just stood beside Her Majesty the King.

“I know that. According to the testimony of the maid, Miss herself was the one who followed my daughter-in-law to go into the forest.” said the King who successfully silenced the young girl's mouth.

Degs..

“Itu-”

“As you said, my daughter-in-law attacked you with her magic power? But the Tower Witch found no trace of any magic in your body. I just found out that you're unconscious from drinking poisonous tea. The fact that your body was in that moment left only traces of healing magic. Can you account for your statement just now?!” press the King with a look of fed-up eyes.

It took Sheyra a long time to reply, Sheyra was now only silent in thought. In the end, he lifted his neck and looked up. “I admit wrong Sire, it is true that I followed Miss Lucy into the forest, this is because I was worried about her. Actually I do not know anything about Miss who is lying sick, because I also suddenly vomited blood and unconscious.” explained the girl suddenly.

“Lantas, why do you give false testimony?”

“I said so, because I was threatened by the person who poisoned me, he forced me into this plan and promised to give me the antidote, because I must not die until the plan succeeds.” clear again with a resigned gaze.

“Diancam said you?”
