016 - Daily Life Of The Hidden Princess (3)
The morning has arrived. The birds were busy chirping, and the sun was starting to shine in Faerie's room from the window.
Thanks to the sunlight, Faerie woke up with an annoyed look on her face.
But moments later, Faerie opened her gray eyes wide as her ears heard a very low whisper.
"Don't...!"
"Shhh! Please. Come here...!"
At first, there was no way Faerie could hear a suspicious low whisper that she didn't recognize considering how large the mansion where the Princess was hidden was.
But strangely, this low whispering voice could be heard clearly in her bedroom. Which meant that the voice had indeed come from inside her bedroom.
Unfortunately, Faerie was still half asleep so she thought the series of events especially the encounter and contract with the God that made her enter the novel was just a long nightmare.
'Who's this?'
Faerie lived alone after her grandmother died, so there was no way anyone would come in and make a fuss in her apartment.
Faerie lives in an apartment that is quite elite and its security is guaranteed so that thieves can't infiltrate.
So who is this? Did distant relatives try to get back in touch with her to talk nonsense again?
Thinking of that made the half-conscious Faerie start to get angry involuntarily because her deep sleep was disturbed.
"…It's noisy…" A low, irritated mutter escaped Faerie's mouth and echoed slightly in the luxurious white and silver room.
"I beg your pardon, Princess! I am guilty!" a voice full of regret as well as the sound of knees hitting the floor loudly entered Faerie's ears.
Faerie who rubbed her still unconscious eyes and still wanted to close them again opened her mouth, "Princess? What nonsense are you talking- AAAH!" Faerie immediately exclaimed in surprise as she immediately rose from her lying position.
She immediately remembered the reality she faced when she saw the ceiling of her room which was far different from the ceiling where she lived on earth.
"Yes! I am the Princess!" shouted Faerie.
Faerie immediately took off the thick fluffy blanket that covered her whole body perfectly when she fell asleep last night.
She straightened her body and her head was facing straight ahead. She crossed her legs and put her hands on her thighs elegantly.
Faerie didn't know why her body spontaneously behaved like this. She was just following her instincts to act like a Royal Princess.
Faerie looked around and saw no one in front of her. "...There's no one?" she muttered in a confused tone.
"... Your Highness?" The soft voice of someone Faerie had known recently sounded low.
The soft voice of someone Faerie had known recently sounded low and barely audible if Faerie were still half awake.
Faerie glanced around for a moment to find the source of the sound. But sadly she couldn't find anyone.
At the time.
Faerie lowered her head under the bed and saw a young girl her age, complete with a maid outfit, kneeling on the floor of Faerie's room with her face down.
"Meila, what are you doing here?" Faerie, who managed to recognize who the maid was, asked while frowning.
Meila, raised her red face as if she was holding back something after hearing Faerie's voice.
"Are you okay?"
A few seconds later she finally started to sob loudly when Faerie asked how she was in a sincere tone.
"Meila...? Wait, why are you crying?" Faerie was taken aback by the sudden change in atmosphere.
"M-My pardon, Your Highness!" Meila, instead of explaining the reason why she was crying in front of Faerie, was crying louder and louder than before. Like a child who just lost her favorite candy.
Faerie wanted to cover her ears because of her loud sobs, but, Faerie was afraid that the maid's cries would get louder if she did that.
A few minutes later.
Finally, Faerie managed to persuade Meila to stop her sobs first.
"I, I'm...!"
[Name: Meila.]
[Age: 17 years old.]
[Personality:
> Kind. Cheerful. Honest. Very loyal. Helpful.]
> Meila likes Princess Faerie.]
[Special ability:
> Has healing power that exceeds the average holy priestess in general. If trained further can become a high-level priestess, or even higher than that.]
> There is a low chance of its healing power evolving into a purification power containing strong and pure divine power.]
[Current status: Meila feels very sorry and also guilty for disturbing the Princess's deep sleep.]
"... Surely you have a reason why you came to my room so early in the morning, right, Meila?" Faerie asked after she finished observing the
'Crazy... After I looked closely, this Meila could be a candidate for high-ranking Priestess or maybe more...?' Faerie was surprised by the character information about Meila that was never told in the novel.
Faerie held the temple of her head. She couldn't help but feel envious that a maid had even better abilities than Princess Faerie.
'Never mind, let's just focus on what I have to take care of...!'
Faerie looked at Meila. "Of course, you didn't mean to disturb my sleep, did you?"
'What a cheating skill.' thought Faerie when she saw Meila's reaction, who was surprised to hear her question.
Meila looked at her like a ghost because Faerie could tell what was on her mind.
Well, it was clear because Meila had prostrated herself to beg for forgiveness while crying loudly to her.
Maybe if the other maids saw it, they would think Meila tried to attack her while she was asleep but ended up being caught off guard.
When Meila was about to open her mouth, there was a snorting sound accompanied by a cute jumping sound approaching Faerie's bed.
"Oh," Faerie blinked as the tiny white furry creature climbed onto her lap, "it's you, Mister rabbit."
Faerie stroked the rabbit's head while trying to hold back her screams that wanted to praise how soft the rabbit's fur was sitting comfortably between her thighs.
"I was going to give him breakfast before waking up the Princess. However, Mister Rabbit suddenly escaped from his cage."
"When I tried to catch him, it turned out that the direction of his escape was towards your room, Your Highness."
Hearing that explanation, now Faerie knew the cause of the commotion in her room this morning.
"Haahh...." Faerie involuntarily let out a short breath. Who would have thought that her sleep was disturbed just because of a mere rabbit?
Meila who heard the sigh immediately fell back to her knees, but Faerie quickly stopped her.
"Stop."
Just one word, but Meila immediately stood up and her sobs had disappeared completely as if she had never cried so much before.
'Wow, she is a great maid.' Faerie thought in admiration.
After all, Faerie couldn't blame the maid named Meila.
That was because the main source of the problem lay with the clever rabbits she picked up.
Faerie decided to keep it after considering the
'If that's true, then I'll have my private spy!'
Faerie smiled broadly to herself as she thought of the times she could make use of the rabbit's abilities in several events in the novel later.
Faerie quickly turned her attention to the matter in front of her.
'I have to divert this conversation...'
Faerie cleared her throat. "Meila. Please bring breakfast-"
"Her Highness Princess Faerie." A flat and polite voice suddenly appeared from outside the room and managed to cut off Faerie's words.
Faerie thought she had heard that voice before.
"..."
Yes. It was the same sound she heard before falling asleep last night.
"Ah! Just in time! Head maid Melanie seems to have come to bring your breakfast, Your Highness!" Meila, not noticing the change in Faerie's expression, rushed to the open door.
'Head maid? Who?'
Faerie wanted to first ask who the real owner of that flat voice was. However, Meila had already approached the door of her room without waiting for a signal from her.
Fortunately, both the owner of the voice named 'Melanie', and Meila were still waiting for her orders even though the door to her room was wide open.
Unable to come up with an excuse to refuse breakfast, Faerie could only reply quietly. "Come in."
The sound of the food trolley being pushed was quite low as the two of them entered Faerie's spacious and luxurious room.
Meanwhile, the person who pushed the food trolley appeared last, accompanied by the door to her room which was closed silently by Meila.
Faerie opened her eyes wide when she could finally see a figure pushing a food trolley.
[Name: Melanie Ainzsword.]
[Age: 25 years old.]
[Personality:
> Cold hearted.]
> Very loyal to her master, Queen Randell (currently on temporary leave to look after her master's daughter)]
[Special ability:
> A sword master of the 12 sword masters in the Graham Continent.]
> Has sensitive senses like a wild animal.]
> Can create
[Current status: Melanie is curious as to why her master's daughter is willing to eat.]
"Haaaaaaaaah?" Faerie unconsciously let out a scream full of surprise when she saw the thin and transparent screen hovering right in front of Melanie's face.
"Your Highness?" Both Meila and Melanie looked at Faerie with confused faces.
But Faerie paid no heed to the confused expressions of the two. It was because the thin screen in front of her was scarier than anything.
'Swordmaster?! Cold-hearted?! Those are the characteristics of a killing machine who has no sympathy other than the loyalty of her master!'
'Why would the mother of this body order a sword master to watch over her child?! Can a child who is weak and knows nothing about the world escape from this island in the middle of nowhere?!' Faerie could only protest in her mind as she read the character's information content.
"Your Highness, is...is something wrong?" Meila approached Faerie carefully, afraid to offend her.
Faerie smiled, shaking her head. She smiled very, very sweetly. She also rubbed the rabbit's head which was now lying in an adorable position between her thighs.
"No..." Faerie paused to look at the food on the trolley used to carry large quantities of food at once, "the food looks so appetizing that I was surprised." Faerie continued, still smiling.
After Faerie finished saying that, Melanie was surprised while Meila smiled cheerfully.
"Chef Mona must be happy to hear that, Her Highness Princess Faerie! Isn't it, Head maid Melanie?!" Meila, with a flowery aura surrounding her, glanced at Melanie, whose hair was neatly tied up in a bun.
"R-Right." Melanie nodded her head stiffly.
Shortly after, the two of them came out of her room after Faerie indirectly signaled for the two to come out so she could enjoy her breakfast.
Faerie waved her hand complete with a sweet smile until the door to her room was tightly closed.
"This ability helped me to be able to recognize all the characters. The information displayed by the skill called
Her cheeks hurt as she forced her face into a smile even though her head was in complete turmoil with shock.
She had to hide the shock that kept piling up after entering the world of the novel as a hidden character destined to die by the main character.
"Crazy... Who would have thought that a sword master would be willing to disguise herself as a maid to keep an eye on her master's daughter...." Faerie muttered quietly.
"I have to stay away from that maid named Melanie!"
"That's for later..." Faerie paused for a moment and stared at the food on the round table with drooling saliva, "Right now I have to fill my stomach first, then think of plans!"
"Isn't that right, Mister rabbit?" Faerie stroked the rabbit's head, while her gray eyes stared at the large mirror that was neatly placed on the dressing table.
Princess Faerie's appearance today also still looked very unusual even though she had just woken up. It was as if she was a fairy tale Princess known for her pure beauty without the slightest flaw.
"...I should also try the
"Time for breakfast!" While shouting, Faerie suddenly remembered Melanie's
[Current status: Melanie is curious as to why her master's daughter is willing to eat.]
'...Could it be that this body has trouble eating?'
"Hm...." Faerie only thought about it for a while, after that she threw the thought away because now she was feeling really hungry.
Moreover, this body she possessed was very healthy, so she doubted whether the maids here misunderstood or what.
"Well, I have to finish this breakfast first!"
