"Haah!"
A sharp gasp tore through my mouth as I woke up with a start.
'Huh?'
I was about to stand when suddenly...
Whoosh!
The wind blew and I literally froze in place.
'Fuck is up with this insane cold?!' I thought, shivering.
"W-where... where the hell is this place?" I stuttered, my voice trembling as I gazed around. The icy air wrapped around like a suffocating blanket.
Wait.
Wait a minute.
'A forest?'
Yes… this is... a forest.
But... that doesn't make any sense.
I shouldn't be here.
Sigh.
I sighed and rubbed my temples, trying to calm the storm raging in my mind.
"Hm," I placed a hand over my chest, feeling a hollow ache I hadn't experienced in a long ti.
This... Numbness.
Damn.
What the hell happened to ? Why can't I rember anything?
"!"
And then... it hit .
mories I'd seemingly forgotten.
"Argh!" I groaned as a sharp pain sliced through my skull, leaving clutching my head.
Crap!
This feels worse than a hangover!
"Tsk," I clicked my tongue in frustration, relieved as the pain gradually faded.
"...,"
I....
.... I rember.
I was shot... in the leg.
But... that explains nothing.
I was shot in the leg... that's all I rember.
'....,'
Sighs.
I leaned back, staring up at the sky.
'Why do I feel like there's more to the coincidence of the princess's attack and my sudden appearance tonight?'
The thought had been nagging at ever since I got mixed up in the princess's ss.
None of it adds up.
And then, there's the strange fact that no one from the 'party' bothered to step out during all that commotion.
It's as if sothing was keeping everyone inside... or maybe... soone.
Could it be there's an inside man?
But does that an the attack was solely to force Angelina into awakening?
I can't see any gain in that.
Oh, right.
I've been thinking about this from the ga's perspective.
Maybe their real purpose was to eliminate her, not just force her awakening.
But if that's the case... why didn't they send soone strong enough to kill her?
Or… was it because sending a higher-level assassin would've raised too much suspicion at the party?
Hmm... That seems plausible.
But the connection between Kyneal and the order of the voiceless god… That's odd.
They're both dark organizations, but in the ga, they were never exactly on good terms.
Now that I think about it, the order of the voiceless god were always searching for sothing...
"!"
An avatar.
How could I forget?
Wait! Could it be they never intended to kill Angelina? What if they were only planning to abduct her?
But... the timing... It doesn't make sense.
They could've done it at any other ti. Why did it have to be the day Kyneal was involved?
OR!
Could it be that at this point, both organizations were in an alliance?
That's an entirely new angle.
Maybe sothing happened that turned them into enemies later on.
But regardless, my initial thought about an insider still stands.
None of this adds up.
What was the princess even doing in the garden at that exact mont?
Why didn't the guards protecting Amael notice the agents of Kyneal approaching?
"Well... I guess I'll figure it out... eventually," I muttered, pushing myself up.
And then, sothing strange happened.

"What the hell?!" I blurted, suddenly rembering.
'I think I saw this before I lost consciousness,' I thought, as a realization hit like a brick.
A system.
'Hah, well, I guess I'm not completely screwed in this fantasy world,' I mused.
But that thought quickly changed...
... when I saw it.

Haah.
and my luck.
"Sighs," I clenched my fists in frustration.
Why does nothing ever go my way?
Why do I always have to suffer?
Why can't I just be ridiculously overpowered?
Why does it always have to be this way?
Why... am i always in a difficult position in life?
