Fake Princess
CdlxvIII Chapter
Kou landed his body in the forest that was in the corner of the Kingdom, I jumped down by grabbing Haruki's palm as his hand pointed towards me. I turned around by letting go of my hand in my brother's hand as my foot approached Kou's head and gently rubbed his head.
“Thank you,” I said slowly, Kou stood up as I walked backwards following the others.
“Sa-chan.”
I turned my head back as I set foot following him, occasionally I glanced towards Kou who was flying around us before his shadow was completely lost in the sky, “what here is now autumn?” I murmured softly as my eyes fell on the leaves on the tree that looked yellow.
“It seems, although the air around is still a little warm,” reply Izumi who chimed in the murmur I did before.
My steps continued again, occasionally rubbing my head as I felt something fall into my hair. I took a strong bite on my lips when the smell of cooking knocked my nose, my feet felt reluctant to step.. Because the smell of the cooking I meant would be more clearly smelled in tandem with the farther we stepped.
I threw a glance around, towards the people who were passing by following the boisterous sound of the merchants peddling the goods they were selling. “Nii-chan, don't we have the least bit of money?” I exchange a glance at the back of Haruki who is walking in front.
“Nothing. In my bag only contains books, in your bag that is in Izumi contains herbal medicines, in the bag of Eneas containing poison. Do you want us to sell them for money?” Haruki replied to me using Japanese.
“I was tempted by all the food,” I whispered softly using the same language while sipping my own saliva as my gaze was thrown around.
“Why not sell your precious necklace? Or tell them, ‘I'm a future Queen, I want your food. So quickly give!’” Izumi who was walking beside me chimed in on our conversation.
“What will they believe?”
“Of course not, they will definitely consider you an insane woman. At least you will get two possibilities, expelled by them or fed by those who pity.”
I cast a sideways glance by strongly biting my lips, “you, it always managed to piss me off, nii-chan,” I replied while still taking my eyes off of him.
We kept walking and kept walking through the crowd, if it used to be . Only a few girls could I see passing through the streets. Now, this place is seriously changing, at least I no longer see the depressed look in the eyes of the women.
“Nee-chan.”
I turned towards Eneas who was also walking beside me, “what's up, Eneas?” ask him.
Eneas reached into the bag he was carrying, “your hand, nee-chan,” he said while still walking with a still focused view on the inside of his bag.
“My hands?” I murmured by raising my palm towards him.
Aeneas raised his face again, he pointed his palm which he held towards me. Both my eyes widened as several coins of money fell from his hands onto the palm of my hand, “I only realized if I saved the rest of the money while buying a small child from a merchant. If nee-chan doesn't bring it up, maybe I'll forget it,” she said by re-justifying the bag that was hung on her shoulder.
I glanced at the coins, “this is more than enough. Eneas, you are the best,”, I said while holding firmly the money given by Eneas.
“So wait especially? If you want to buy something, buy it now before we continue the journey!”
“Just do it, we will wait for you there while looking for information from the residents. Buy us food too,” said Haruki who stopped his steps and turned to me.
“Alright, Eneas! Accompany your brother to buy food,” my connection which immediately turned towards Eneas.
I walked away from them with the hand of Eneas. “This reminds me, when Izu nii-san came to punish those of us who left secretly,”.
“Do you want to taste the food back? I mean, sheep's intestine?” reveal me while releasing my hand on her wrist.
Eneas shook her head strongly, “I'm not interested. I just want food that can be eaten by ordinary humans,” his reply that threw his gaze around.
“I want to buy everything!”
The voice of the woman who said it managed to make my footsteps come to a halt. “Give me, all the beautiful clothes you have,” said the same female voice.
I glanced to the left, towards the crowd of women wearing beautifully multicolored dresses, complete with headdresses adorning their hair, “are they a noble?” I whispered a little bit to them.
My eyes turned towards the middle-aged man surrounded by women, the man looked exhausted from the innuendo that one woman threw at another. “If only my father had not said that His Majesty likes to visit this place, I would not have bought clothes from a place like this,” said one of the women as the other woman pushed her body.
“I heard if Your Majesty is looking for a future wife, since the news spread .. I always messed with the behavior of those who make troublemakers and shameless.”
“Thankfully there is a rule to prohibit the torture of women for no apparent reason, if there is no.. I may have killed them all,” chimed the voices of men whispering near me.
Both of my eyes widened as I caught the shadow of several women walking out of the building, I stared at one of the familiar women in my eyes, “not her, Princess Khang Hue?” I muttered still looking at the woman who was walking away with her face down.
“Oi,”, I glanced at the two men standing near me.
The two young men frowned back at my glance, “explain to me, what is really going on here?!” ask me without heeding their eyes.
One of the men walked over, he raised both his hands clutching my shoulders. I took a breath by glancing towards his two hands earlier, I raised both my hands close to the face of the man earlier with my two thumbs moving strongly pressing both eyes. The man groaned a little down, his groans getting clearer as I kicked his groin forcefully with a hunch until he fell down followed by his hands moving to hold the sensitive body part.
“Why do you have to make me expend energy? Just tell me, what exactly happened here?”
“Excuse.”
I glanced sharply to the side as a delicate female voice sounded, “what is it?” I asked a woman who was bowed by holding her hands forward.
“Nona, want to talk to you,” he said back, this time more slowly heard than before.
I raised my gaze towards a woman standing not far behind her, “Nona?” I muttered while returning the gaze of the woman called Miss.
