Surviving As The Protagonist

Chapter 3: The Knight and his Love

After soaking herself that even almost made Lucy fall asleep, now Lucy dressed herself in beautiful clothes like the Princess Royal. Her beautiful white dress combined with steel blue is now successful in making it a hallmark that Lucy has become part of the royal.

But her current pretty face looks not so comfortable, “Isn't this an exaggeration of Flona?” tanyanya who felt riled up about her current appearance.

“No Miss, you are engaged to His Highness the Crown Prince. If dressing up like this is only natural for Miss,” he said accompanied by an adorable little laugh.

“Really? Wear blue rather— I will still be engaged to him,” he said who felt bad. Because blue is the color of the royal coat of arms of Garfield.

“Nothing Really,” firmly while trying to tidy up Lucy's hair with her skillful hands. Lucy's head was currently buzzing loudly.

“I think my condition is not good.” Celoteg girl while on her own temple massage, he said he was currently feeling dizzy.

“Then I will find a more comfortable horse carriage for Miss.”, he said with attention. Lucy just nodded her head in a sign of agreeing with him, at least her body condition would not be worse if she rode a comfortable horse carriage without causing heavy drunk on the way.

Finally Flona had finished dressing Lucy well, he seemed to smile with satisfaction after seeing the results of his own masterpiece.

“Miss want to dress like anything stay beautiful like an immortal witch!” he who is showered with praise.

“Note it's too much for me.” said he who felt disliked, Flona even reacted clumsy at this time.

“But you get that nickname for being born with beautiful blonde hair!” his grunts who do not like every time his humble nature relapses.

Huft.he just sighed, shortly afterwards he nodded his head just confirming Flona's words. After all, who was that immortal witch? What does this have to do with my blonde hair color?

...***...

Now that a chariot had entered the gates of the royal palace, the journey to the present day was to go to the palace of Philia, the palace where the Crown Prince lived and grew up there since childhood.

Her routine today is to learn to get an education as a future Queen there, in her heart Lucy just hopes that today she does not need to cross paths with the annoying Man.

Hopefully, today will be a long and boring day.

His net seemed to twist with a feeling of laziness, he felt heavy when he looked at the Diamond Hall which was far from his sight, accompanied by a horse carriage that was still walking quietly, his feelings became chaotic.

Just yesterday I set my foot in that place, now I must also return to this sickening place.

Time did not seem to have just flowed by, now that he had arrived at Philia Palace, an endless amount of time someone dressed as a knight appeared and opened the door of his carriage slowly.

Her fingers wrapped in white gloves were now outstretched to help her get off the horse carriage, the girl simply smiled as she accepted her help happily.

“Let's follow me Miss.” her door which shortly afterwards steps straight in front of her.

“Good Sir.” nods the girl while following her steps behind.

His heart was currently still pounding incoherently when faced with the knight in front of him. Not because of feelings of like, but this is because of uncomfortable feelings. Although a year had passed, he still felt uneasy around the white-haired knight.

He is Crylo Emillo, a knight sword master who has good looks with silvery white hair that sparkles with blue netra like diamond gem.

If Lucy becomes the female protagonist in the novel, Crylo is her second male character, as she is the only one who loves Lucy to the end.

In the future he will also be my guardian knight, just like the plot set in this novel. Given the feeling that he would love me with all his heart, this somehow made me feel burdened every time I saw his eyes. Crylo I'm sorry, I hope this time you don't have to love me, because I'll never love you either.

His sparkling brown net was now fixedly staring at him who had stepped faster in front of him, if he heard from the newspaper.he had just returned from his great task for months huh? He said the Crown Prince sent Sir Emillo westward because a band of bandits appeared there. Apparently he's home.

Bruck..

Long washed away in his daydream until when the man stopped his steps, Lucy hit the back accidentally. “Ugh.” ringisnya while gently rubbing his forehead which might turn into swollen.

What is that back anyway? Hard rich stone..

“Sorry Miss if I stop suddenly.” The man now reacted nervously to her, her unnecessary apology even making the girl feel even more guilty towards him.

Though it was my fault that went wrong, I hit him why did he apologize? Uhh…. Just make the feeling bad.

“Nothing Sir..” he said with a smile.

The man seemed to nod and thank Lucy for Lucy's generosity to him, before long he began to elaborate and instruct her about the routine of today.

“Miss wait a moment in this room, Master who will teach you will arrive soon,” clear the young man with a tone that seems quite friendly.

Lucy's response was merely a nod to a sign that she understood with her instructions, before long she breezed away into the room Sir Emillo had determined before.

There is a scene that once made Raflesa stunned when he saw the side story of Lucy after the eve of her death, where the story pov is given to Sir Emillo who mourns the death of Lucy who is the female villain in the novel.

The scene begins with a man who looks sculpted while staring at a beautiful handkerchief held by him. It was the sweetest handkerchief Lucy ever gave him.

“I.. should have been trying more to stop the wedding Miss.” quote filled with regret.

Just before leaving her room, Crylo as her guardian knight came clutching tightly onto Lucy's wrist, with a pleading face she said, “I beg you, stop this Miss.” his words that really feel desperate.

The girl just shook her head, “Can't Sir, I love her.” reject her with a radiant face.

“I'm willing to follow Miss wherever you go, as long as Miss never gets hurt like this again.. I beg! You do not need to live by forcing yourself to this extent Miss. You do not need to beg for love just because you want to be by His Majesty's side.. let's go together.” His face looks sad, he looks at Lucy's face with a meaningful look. The man offers Lucy to run away from the kingdom with him.

Unfortunately Lucy is unlikely to grant his request, she rejects the man's request accompanied by guilt. “I'm sorry sir, after these twists and turns happened to me. In the end I am still the winner, soon I will be crowned Queen of this kingdom, I just believe that one day, His Majesty's Heart will still return to me.” reject it that both feel grieved.

Lucy only believes that one day, the Crown Prince who has been turned away from her will come back to love Lucy as time passes.

In the end his refusal made the man's face look moody accompanied by a feeling of disappointment that enslaved. “Until the end you always call me with a formal name yes.” softly with an empty gaze.

Lucy who was in front of him could only be silent filled with feelings of guilt, because he could not return Sir Emillo's feelings until the last second. The feeling he had was only to love Reygan even to his last breath, Lucy's mind would only always be filled with that Man.

Like a cruel maelstrom of fate, Lucy was never given a happy life for even a second, their deep talk was a farewell greeting Lucy gave Sir Emillo. Because just as the sacred promise ceremony was taking place, Lucy was dragged from her own wedding altar even to receive inhumane treatment there.

After being stoned while being yelled at, “Basic Witch!” by his own people. His body was now bound and burned alive until the woman actually died.

Truly a poor life, their love story neither of them materialized. Where Lucy never gets her love back from Reygan, and Sir Emillo who has lost someone most precious to her forever.

“Instead of me.” he said accompanied by resignation, the girl just felt inexhaustible with her soul that must be trapped in this body.

I don't want to have a horrible death like Lucy. Isn't the author of this novel too evil to have created Lucy's character with this cruel treatment? Least.. Lucy is just a lonely little boy, she only expects love from someone.

He always tried hard to meet all their expectations. Lucy who willingly accepts her fate as the future Queen only expects Reygan to reciprocate her feelings in the future. But His Majesty did not even respect Lucy who would be his life partner.

The Crown Prince falls in love with a girl from the baron family until they have a romantic relationship behind Lucy. Fufu, who was so impassioned when he heard such news? It is only natural that Lucy who is an official fiancee blindly and rampage against the woman of his affair.

He vented his frustration, all his anger piled up in his heart to Sheyra who was the main character in the novel. Until Lucy gets a death that is considered as a reward for her actions so far.

“I don't understand anymore! The one who cheated on him, Your Majesty, why is the one who was put to death even Lucy?! Absolutely disgusting,” his murmur stuck in the throat.

A knock on the door made his long daydream crumble, immediately allowing someone to enter his room. Soon someone appeared with an aura full of pressure and dignity.

“Happy Miss, I'm Jeanne Lagherta. Nice to meet you.” Greet the middle-aged woman.

“Happy to meet you too, Marchionest Lagherta.” The greeting is friendly accompanied by greetings of the etiquette of the nobles.

It has been hereditary for the family of Marquess Lagherta in providing education to future Queen candidates. This is not strange because it has been done from generation to generation along with a fascinating and proud history.

Without the need for long pleasantries, the teaching of the Queen-to-be class has now begun. The education that will be provided gradually includes training in communication, etiquette, political science and economics. Because a Queen must be able to contain connections and invite beneficial cooperation among merchants, nobles and even between countries.

Ethics is certainly considered strictly, how to be polite but authoritative so as to make people feel reluctant to him who is a Queen. How to establish good relations between the nobility and the people. And live by maintaining her dignity, because the Queen is the face of her Kingdom.

This lesson will be a tiring session for her, fortunately the girl is willing to take Marchionest's teachings well.

...***...

The lesson for today has been completed. Finished saying goodbye politely, it seemed that they would meet again tomorrow. Lucy now just drops herself on the couch, something smoky seems to pop out of her head.

“I can go crazy!” grunt while covering his ears tightly.

You just imagine, since earlier for 5 hours Lucy was told to memorize the history of the establishment of the kingdom of Garfield without a break though?!His head seemed really willing to explode, he even missed his lunch hour which made his tiny stomach sound a rumble.

When checked his body temperature, it feels like hot because of fever, “I seem to be too forcing myself since yesterday,” the wean who tried to revive himself. Moreover, my brain that had been out of function for a long time might feel a little overwhelmed when it received the Marchionest's teachings earlier.

Not long after, Sir Emillo entered the room after knocking on his door several times. With a stern look on his face, he now wanted to convey a message from the Crown Prince to him. But before that, “Are you okay?” she asked him who looked worried

“I'm fine Sir,” he said trying to cover his own body condition.

“But your face is pale Miss,” said the young man, you are really worried about me huh? Then then..

“Really it's okay. I am just a little tired.” he exclaimed accompanied by a cheerful smile on his face. Seeing Lucy's usual attitude is enough to make the knight breathe a sigh of relief and gratitude if Lucy's condition is fine.

But in reality the man was only fooled by his small acting, “What is sir?” ask the girl curious. Isn't it time to go home? Does he intend to take me back to the horse carriage? He thought to himself, but Sir Emillo's answer seemed to be beyond his expectations.

“Yang Mulia invites you to enjoy lunch together,” said the man accompanied by his face looks very serious.

“Umm.”

WHAT'S?! He's taking me to lunch? Want to especially?!
