Chapter 454: The Emperor’s Daughter 454
I would never betray soone.
My life must have been filled with bad luck.
Ever since I was born as my dad’s daughter, it was the only thing that hadn’t changed, but I realized sothing. I was a girl who could break her nose when she fell forward!
Maybe it wasn’t much of a miracle that I was alive till then? Oh, well, usually, it would have been a miracle.
No matter how much I thought about it, I didn’t understand my situation, let alone run away from them.
What the hell happened when I was asleep? Now, I was in the arms of my eldest dad, whom I have never seen even once in my life.
‘What the hell is he?!’
“Must be a dream.”
... ah, bull shit.
Yeah, a ridiculous bullshit story, and the only thing I could imagine. It had to be magic.
I must have gone crazy,
Well, even if I went crazy, this situation was probably the worst that could happen.
So now I... I felt like I had been kidnapped.
Well, I wasn’t sure since I had never been kidnapped before.
“Looks like you are still out of your mind. I can’t imagine why you wouldn’t be confused.”
I was taken aback. The dream began to fade away after hearing his low voice.
If I couldn’t wake up from this sleep, it had to be one of the two situations. Either I stayed up for a week and my mind had lost it in sleep, or I was just plain insane. Fortunately, it wasn’t either of them.
‘Ah, let’s gulp sothing and pinch myself.’
Right, it wasn’t a dream.
When I stood up and looked again, I saw a man who claid to be my eldest father.
Could it be true? Was he really my dad’s brother?
First of all, he looked a lot older than dad. That could an that he really was my eldest dad, but he didn’t look much like my dad either. Plus, the peculiar hair color he had was a color that couldn’t be bought with a dye.
Was he really my eldest dad then?
He was a little weird, and I couldn’t affirm it.
Oh, well, he said he was my eldest dad for a reason; I didn’t know if it was the truth or not. How would I even know if that was the truth or if he was deceiving ? I never even saw his face before.
But that wasn’t the important part.
I tried to get my mind together, trying to ignore everything else.
“Isn’t this our first ti eting in person?”
“Yes, nice to et you. Good morning?”
Stillness and silence sank into the room. The cold air around us made more confused.
Did I say sothing wrong?
“Uhahhhahahahah!”
Suddenly, the man began to laugh hysterically. I felt frightened.
What was that? It was scary.
Maybe I said sothing wrong.
Did I even say anything weird?
I tried to act more familiar and polite, but it seed like he took it differently.
I felt a little upset.
“You are so bright in person.”
“Ah, thank you. It is just how I behave.”
“Is that so? I didn’t know that.”
... at least I was sure that my personality was better than his.
No, I was sure that I was saner than anyone else on my father’s side of the family.
Well, it looked like I was having a day. I didn’t know my maternal grandfather ended up being alive, and then I t my aunt. Now, there was that guy who called himself my eldest dad.
I had a considerable family, wow!
Of course, unlike my aunt and grandfather, this man gave the feels that we wouldn’t get along.
Ah, this feeling. It didn’t feel right.
“Hmm...”
His cool gaze looked at my body and reached for my eyes. From then, he looked into my eyes for a very long ti, drifting them away.
‘What is it? Can’t he take his eyes off ?’
‘Well, I am pretty, really, really pretty.’
Although his eyes scanning up and down were blatantly unpleasant, he was lucky I didn’t glare at him. By the way, the way he openly showed his scrutinizing eyes was an offensive act. That being said, I had a clear impression ford on him! I already understood his behavior.
“You are pretty. There must have been a lot of guys saying good things about you.”
“I am a little popular.”
At my response, the sixth prince laughed.
Young people were generally cute, so elders wouldn’t care much. He was smiling with his face, but how co his facial muscles were displaying a smug look?
Was he really smiling? I wasn’t the kind of person who could think and act imdiately, but at least in this situation, I knew that it would be better to draw so lines between us.
Right, laugh. Just laughing along with him wouldn’t an that my face would get worn out.
“You seem quite confident. Yes, is there any fiancé promised for you in the future?”
It was a very formal question, but I just laughed.
‘Mountains are mountains and water are waters.’
Far from getting a fiancé, I grew up without even dreaming about dating, thanks to the strict protection of Caitel! Solo all my life! It wasn’t like I wanted to get married, but my solo life was sad.
“No. I grew up fine...”
“Ah, a woman’s life is always for marriage.”
‘Haha, what did you say?’
‘A man was telling a woman that her life depended on a man, wah!’
‘Phew, calm down. I couldn’t act rough. He was fortunate that I wasn’t an emotional person. Patriarchal much? It would be very nice to see him die.’
“You must be hungry. I prepared sothing you would like.”
I was trying to calm my anger when the sixth prince said that.
A small tray entered the room at his voice.
Until that mont, I felt angry, but when I saw the food co in, I felt relieved.
Why was the food in the tray so familiar?
It was the food and desserts I often ate in the palace.
Did he know my preferences? I wasn’t sure of the details, but I felt reluctant to ask. Did he do a background check on ? My face went stiff. The composition and decoration of the food were too much of a coincidence, no?
“Thank you. I’ll enjoy it.”
I had no reason to refuse the food given to . Most of all, when I saw rice, I turned hungry.
I realized that my stomach had been empty. Since I left Bureti, I only ate a small al, so it had been three to four days since I had a proper al. I was feeling bad that I was getting a proper al from a stranger, but I was ready to eat it.
Well, it tasted good.
Once I started to eat, all the noises around just vanished. I lived only for the food, and once I started munching on it, it was as if the noise was being eaten away too.
I hated it. In the end, I needed to talk with him again.
“Where are we?”
I wasn’t expecting him to answer. I only asked because I had to talk to him. Not so shockingly, his answer was what I expected.
“Secret”
“Then, how about a little hint?”
“Umm, let just say that we are still inside Uprichit.”
A smile ford on his lips, but I overlooked it. Did he an that we were still in Uprichit or that we would soon pass Uprichit?
When he said Uprichit, I felt relieved. I wasn’t sure how long I had been asleep, so I didn’t know how long it was since I had been kidnapped, but the situation didn’t seem too bad. At least my dad could find here.
Of course, finding us wouldn’t be easy, but I wanted to believe that he would find .
... there was nothing else I could do. Damn it.
“What are you going to do with ?”
“Well...”
“I am very useless. I can’t even cook.”
“Haha.”
I couldn’t hunt, clean, or do laundry, but I knew how to ride a horse.
‘Ha, I really am useless.’
I wasn’t trying to be funny, but he still chuckled. With a laugh, the sixth prince grunted and added.
“It is natural that you can’t do those things.”
“Is that so?”
“A woman’s use is determined by her beauty and how she beds.”
What?
He was barely holding back a smile, but I was smart enough to see through him.
‘What bullshit is he spouting!? Yah! You! Eldest dad? People have the freedom to think, but they should at least filter the words coming out of their mouths; words need to be restrained.’
I wouldn’t say that no humans thought as such, but at least such humans weren’t around when I was growing up.
Did he grow up fine? I guess not!
There seed to be humans worse than my dad.
I lost my words upon hearing the bullshit he spoke; I didn’t even know what to say.
“Have you ever heard of ?”
While I was in thought, a question ca up for .
What did he say? Had I ever heard of him? I was a little flustered at his sudden absurd question.
What? What did he even want?
