Surviving As The Protagonist
Chapter 23: The Terrible Woman
“Lucy.” Someone has called his name which somehow feels so familiar when pinning the name ‘Lucy’ on his lips.
‘Woman who is this? Did I mistake her warm gaze sometimes looks terrible at the same time.’ her inner confusion.
‘I feel fall.... and fall deeper and deeper. A dark and empty room came up to me again. Am I unconscious? How is Reygan's reaction currently in front of me huh? Why did Lucy suddenly bring me here? Is it because I just heard that name?’ he said in his heart, the woman only stared at the confusion when she saw a sudden condition like this.
He rambled in confusion, ‘This time I appeared as a spectator huh. This is in dream?’ so question.
All right, Lucy looks fine. Currently he is only a transparent human figure whose existence is not visible to anyone. When given a dream like this, the woman just shut up, watch, and follow wherever they go. Yes, they are all the main characters in this dream.
At this time, he sees Lucy running around with a cute dog in the palace garden, in a place that he thinks is not so foreign.
The brown net was now turned to the source of the voice that called out to him in a soft tone, under the tree that was illuminated by the sunlight, there was someone who was looking at him with the most revealing smile in the world. “Kakak!” exclaim that girl. Lucy Barayev is 8 years old.
“Come here, the waiter brought you a snack.” said the woman who was reading a book under a tree.
“Good.” The girl said she then ran towards him.
“If my brother had always been like this to me.” he said very slowly. There, no one noticed her straying because the girl spoke very slowly.
The girl with an orange mane accompanied by ruby-colored netra was Lyonora, her 2-year-old sibling. The very beautiful parasite is a derivative of Countest Rosella, although in fact Lucy herself has never seen the form of her mother directly.
The pace of someone who is getting closer is now heard in his ears, “Lucy, let's go with me,” invite someone suddenly. He was the Crown Prince who seemed to approach them after practicing the sword.
“Rean!” exclaimed the girl after eating a mini strawberry cake given by the waiter. “Haha, eat a real dong,” chirp while wiping the leftovers on the tip of the lips of the girl. Lucy just fell silent clumsily receiving Reygan's always warm treatment as usual.
“Good day Your Majesty.” The girl named Lyonore is now greeting Reygan accompanied by excellent etiquette after heading the book he is reading.
“Siang,” response that somehow looks not interested.
“Where are we going Rean?” lucy asked innocently when she saw her wrist being pulled by the 10-year-old.
“Let's meet Her Majesty the Queen and have tea there!” take him with a passionate look.
“Baik~” Ogre Lucy who looks happy, their departure seems to forget the existence of someone behind. Yes, the existence of Lyonora that seems not considered there.
“Your Highness, wait say—”
“I don't intend to invite you,” ketusnya pitched sharply. The girl flinched then stopped her steps. “How can His Majesty say this to me? You showed me you liked Lucy better than being with me.” The 10-year-old girl now looks gloomy when getting treatment like this.
“If I say yes, how will you?” ask him with an eye not like. Although the boy was as old as 10 years old, but his intimidating gaze was not playful, Lyonora who stood in front of him was quite made to creep when she saw him.
“But I am your fiance Your Majesty...” said he who feels unfair with Reygan's current attitude.
“I was forced to choose you because you are the eldest daughter of Count Barayev, so do not expect more, and do not exceed the limit.” his lips are not happy about the existence of Lyonora.
“But Rean, who brother said was right. You can't be like this, I'm just a Rean.” interlocutor said Lucy who tried to fix between the two of them. Not that Lyonora was calm, then at this time he was made more fiery to him. “Jaga your greeting Lucy! How dare you call His Majesty with—”
“Close your anger! Save all your compulsion, I'm fed up!” cut Reygan with an annoyed look. Lucy who is currently only 8 years old is not very understanding of their dispute. It's just that his feelings feel that he is a bully here, he feels that it is impossible to continue to be among them, to understand the situation that requires leaving this place. He bowed and greeted His Majesty in front of him.
“Pardon me for resigning Your Majesty, I forgot today there is an etiquette class at home.” Her pampit was accompanied by a lentic fingers that pulled her dress. Shortly after, both of his feet stepped away to leave them both.
‘What is this situation? Yes. indeed, it should have been from the beginning who was engaged to the Crown Prince was Lyonora, and not Lucy.’ said his inner voice who was responding to this incident.
‘So this is yes, which is related to the incident 2 years ago. What's the reason you died? In the novel the story about the sister is not so explained. It is only told that Lucy is engaged to replace her deceased brother.’ thought he suddenly.
He wondered, what this incident had to do with the change Reygan since 2 years ago?
If noted, it seems that marriage for reasons of the bankruptcy of Count Barayev is only rumpr alone, judging from the age of Lyonora who is still 10 years old but iq is already engaged to the Crown Prince.
‘Is it just a made-up pretext?’ tanyanya curious
*Note: [Chapter 1]
“If it wasn't for necessity, I couldn't have picked you.” Reygan said in a flat tone, before long the youngster rushed out of the park with his little dog and left Lyonora alone.
‘Your words are evil.You act as if you like Lucy more than her own fiance.’ her inner self feels strange.
Iris Ruby was seen shaking at the treatment of her fiance who was so cold like this. “Your Majesty... however you will still marry me, because you need a Queen who flows the blood of a witch in her body.” after saying that sentence, because you need a queen who flows the blood of a witch in her body.<TAG1>, he laughed with satisfaction as if he felt all the control of the matter clasped tightly in his hands.
‘His face... terrible.’.
KYAA!
‘What is this? Directly move places just like that,’ he said while staring here and there. Now the transparent soles of his feet are treading on the floor of the house that is familiar to him. This is the Count's residence? How thought.
The shrieking scream in the ear earlier was the groan of Lucy who felt pain when the strands of her hair were pulled by force. This is the behavior of Lyonora who is the elder sister of Lucy Barayev. “Stop brother...” lirihnya who feel powerless again. Instead of obeying his wishes, the girl instead grew more happy to persecute the sister.
“Explain, why did Your Majesty give this letter to you and not me?!” he said that was filled with wrath. Currently, in the Count's residence there were only servants there, the waiter who accidentally saw and heard chose to turn around and leave the place as if he had never seen anything.
They thought that if this time helped and disturbed the rampaging Miss Lyonora, it would only get them fired, while Flona who feels this situation often occurs just sitting resigned behind the door of Lucy's room that is locked tightly.
“If brother wants me will not be His Majesty's Partner at his birthday party! I never asked for that! I only received a letter from His Majesty!” he objected while blocking his brother's wrist that relentlessly grabbed his hair.
“Ugh...”.
A loud slap now landed on her cheek that left a trace of redness, the girl's face was now frozen with her head buzzing loudly. He asked the same thing repeatedly in his head. Why did her brother actually hate her that much? Why did this brother who was always respected by him even slap and torture him like this? How can Lucy show her feelings and affection for her sister?
“Your explanation makes me even more upset.” he said with a hand that is now busy squeezing his own hair.
“Listen Lucy, I will never allow you to admire her more than just a close friend. I hope that after the day after the party, this sweet Lucy stops seeing Her Majesty yes.” Her ink that suddenly in an instant turned into the most gentle and graceful woman, both of her hands now patted Lucy's shoulder and gently rubbed the top of her head.
“But I am His Majesty's interlocutor.
“WHAT TALK FRIENDS?! YOUR MAJESTY IS 17 YEARS OLD! THERE'S NO WAY YOU'RE GOING TO PLAY HOUSES LIKE YOU USED TO, RIGHT?!” he was right next to Lucy's ear.
The girl just kept quiet with her palm raised to close her ears tightly. His body seemed to tremble, as if he was afraid of his own brother. His brown Netra seemed to tremble as if holding back his cries that did not want to break just like that. If you look at it like this, Lyonora's behavior is like crazy, right?
If Your Majesty is 17 years old, then Lucy is 15. It seems that the tragedy of 2 years ago that Sheyra mentioned during her engagement party was about to start huh? Lucy thought in her heart.
However, Lyonora's eyes when she looked at the Crown Prince was not a look of eyes in love, it was just a look of eyes filled with obsession and thirst for power. Unlike Lucy who likes the Crown Prince sincerely but he is willing to give up for his beloved brother, but the treatment he gets is just this kind of torture. The father who was busy working and never came home never knew the events and suffering of his own daughter.
Every time Flona cried in front of him and asked to complain about this treatment to his father, Lucy's response was simply chuckling feeling that her words were very boring. “What will father care about me? Father who is rarely in that house? Haha.... I'm fed up with Flona,” he said without facial expressions.
Flona just hugged him accompanied by a sobbing that never stopped, he thought how could Miss whose legs had been whipped several times just silently put on a flat face? Shouldn't he be crying?
“Flona, would I sin if I hated my own sister?” tanyanya while returning a warm hug from Flona.
“Nona.. if you want to cry.. then cry..” the door wholeheartedly, but the girl even looks scornful. “Crying huh?”
In the end, the 17th birthday of the Crown Prince arrived, with the condition that is not good, he was forced to attend the birthday party of his best friend, his best friend, The Crown Prince went first using the Count family's carriage.
When the palace chariot arrived at his residence, the girl who descended from the stairs was Lyonora who was preparing to become his beloved fiancee partner. Reygan who had arrived to pick up Lucy was just lying down and received a Lady's speech behind him. After all for the sake of a royal order, it was impossible to leave him in such a position.
It's just that really in sayankan, the party that was originally held for happiness even ended with a terrible tragedy that befell Lady Lyonora, as well as the girl who has the status of the Crown Prince's fiancee.
