Chapter 12 - Shadows Approaching In the room, I saw princess Mephia sitting in an armchair along with three men. Judging by their clothes and equipment, they were probably knights. It was my *first time* seeing them. “It has been a long time, *Prince*.” A sweet scent tickled my nostrils. The room was filled with a faint aroma. I soon felt my head grow heavy, dazed. I couldn’t think clearly. I felt the curious urge to relinquish control of my body to something I couldn’t see… Then I heard the…-

Chapter 5 - Dream After being yelled at by my father, I was commanded to stay put in my room. Before I realized it, I was dreaming. It was the beginning of a long, long dream. I dreamed of the time that nurtured the emotions at the core of my being. Distant and beautiful, yet so fierce, sad, cruel dream world. My whole body sank into that enticing lucid dream. ◆◆◆ <<Hey, ***!>> Someone called my name. Every time, some kind of static noise would cover my name, but only my name was…

Chapter 9 - Just an Idiot “ — haah….haah...hah….” The sound of heavy breathing reached my ears. Fresh blood dripped on the floor before me. I saw a silhouette standing tall with a half shattered blade in one hand. The knight armor it was wearing was crushed, cleaved by a diagonal slash, painted in blood. It was a matter of time until he died. The wound indeed seemed to be lethal. “<<One slash, one kill.>>” I spoke. I slowly walked towards the knight, whose eyes still burned with…

Chapter 6 - A Bleak Feeling “...Your Highness, where did you sneak off to again…?” Feli sighed as she addressed me, since I had snuck out of my room during the night. I could feel her gaze accusing me. I was ordered to stay put in my room, after all. “And you even had a sword with you...” Feli looked at the shadowy “Spada” in my left hand, which I made no efforts to hide, then looked at me again with a sharper glare. “...I went for a walk.” “Really. You’re a very early riser…

Chapter 10 - Only Look Forward I spent the rest of that day in the garden. Father, Grerial, and Feli told me to stay in my room, but I refused. I wasn’t feeling sad in the slightest. I would be lying if I said I didn’t feel the slightest resentment toward the empire, which forced the knight to take such actions, but it was just a fleeting feeling. Yet, my heart still felt conflicted. I was angry, I guess. Not at someone else, but at myself. I had no intention of saying anything about how the…

Chapter 7 - Out of Place “Your Highness, won’t you strike a deal with me?” “...in a situation like this?” “Because of a situation like this, obviously.” I looked around to review our current status. I was surrounded by several unknown entities, which overtly exerted pressure on me. What I was facing was more of a threat than the proposal of a deal. Which prompted my question. “My request is one...Your Highness, come to the empire’s side.” The knight’s tone was for the first time very…

Chapter 11 - Misfortune Comes in Droves I left the garden and headed towards my room, but heard a commotion from my supposedly empty room. I could hear three voices. Those familiar voices made it all too clear who awaited inside the room. “...what are they doing here…?” I frowned, wondering what they had in mind. I opened the door, with the fleeting hope that it wasn’t my room after all, but the window was indeed equipped with my special escape device, so that hope was quickly shattered. “Hey…

Chapter 4 - Symptoms “.......!!” My body moved half instinctively. Thanks to the danger detection abilities engraved in my soul, as soon as I realized it was an explosion I instantly created a “Spada”, getting ready to fight at a moment’s notice. Two, three swords poked out of nearby shadows. I was ready to deal with anything that might happen. “Y-Your Highness…!” Feli too prepared to fight and called my name to rouse my attention. Judging that staying in a secluded room could be risky, we…
