Who Made Me a Princess

He frowned as he rolled his hand into a fist a few times, as if his body won't move as he want it to. I shouted in excitement.

"Are you a wizard?"

My voice was showed my excitement. I apprached a bit him more and looked him up with shiny eyes.

"What, ugh annoying. Why, is this your first time seeing one?"

He looked at me as if he was seeing a strange child.

Is he a palace wizard?! It makes sense now, how he was able to wander around like this!

Even Obelia had few wizards, so even with the wizards in the emperor palace, they say there are less than 50 wizards.

Of course I heard Claude can use magic, but he never showed me once so leave that.

I started to feel this person's, an amazing person as I thought that.

"Others, can you do other things too?"

Those eyes changed into a gaze of seeing something weird when I acted too happy. He had a face not knowing if he should smile or not, then without a word he lifted his hand.

"Like this?"

Snap, and the bubbles appeared around me.

"Wahhh!"

Right now! From a hand! Bubbles came out!

I thought he was going to show me a big cool stuff but it was pretty small magic. However when he kept on summoning bubbles, I became excited like a real 7 year old.

Clear bubbles popped up and flew around me. It was shining naturally in the sunlight. Those bubbles approached me when the wind blew.

I waved my hands trying to catch them. Then the bubbles popped leaving a soapy smell. Ah, smells good.

But is it just me? I feel suffocated....

"Crowl!"

Just then the bubbles I was playing with suddenly just disappeared. I opened my eyes as if I just had a dream. Huh? But since when was I closing my eyes?

Qu-quing. Quing....

But a d.o.g.g.y sound since a while ago.... A while ago was a crowl sound of a beast but now it was a whimper.

"Hah. What's this."

I moved my gaze to the guy and was surprised.

"Did you just get in my way with that useless talent?"

The guy was muttereing glaring at Blackie. Those eyes were icy cold.

"You little puny beast. Should I just kill it?"

Then Blackie started to whimper.

I didn't know anything, but I was sure he was abusing Blackie.

"Do not abuse Blackie!"

You can't abuse our Blackie! Abusing little animal is bad human! A human garbage! A fireproof garbage! Recycling impossible!

"Oppa isn't Blackie's owner, are you?"

I asked with confident that he didn't own Blackie. Then his face turned dull.

"This thing's owner is you. What are you taliing about?"

He was speaking words that didn't make sense from far back then. If I was his owner, would I have asked you if he was yours in the first place?

"First time seeing a wizard, same goes for a divine animal. Did you live in a rock?"

But he was seeing me as a crazy person. I mean I'm getting a bit mad now?

He then frowned as if something was wrong and asked.

"Are you actually a daughter of Kailum?"

"That is not my dad!"

I wanted to tell you from the start! What were you doing naming all the emperors back then?

"No? Then is it really that? Seems like I slept a little longer than I planned to

Then his son name was...."

He held his head with a face of frustration then made a face as if he remembered the thing he wanted to remember.

"Ah, right. Aetherunistas. Then are you that bast*rd's daughter? Even though Kailum was one smart guy but his daughter and son are...."

(Ah-eh-ru-ni-tas is the pronounciation.)

This time, it was the name I knew well. Aetherunistas. He was the emperor 3 generations ago whose name meant 'eternity'.

"What are you talking about! My dad's name is Claude!"

Okay, say I lived in a rock. Then did you lived in dirt under that rock? What do you call someone speaking of the emperor three generations ago like calling a kid in your neighborhood.

Ah! Now I remember the name Kailum. Wasn't he the emperor before Aetherunistas who died too quick that his name is rare to find even in the history book?

"Claude?"

"Yeah!"

"Wait, is that really the current emperor's name?"

"Yeah!"

Gasp. Then am I in the garden alone with this crazy dude?

I shouted in annoyment and shut my mouth immediately realizing what I've done.

U-um I think I gotta leave now. Just remembered I had this important thing to do....

"Ahahaha!"

But a sudden sound of this guy's laughter caught my ears. I moved my gaze to where the sound was coming from. Are you listening? It was supposed to get scary that he started laughing all of a sudden from silence, but it wasn't scary at all maybe because his laughters were so bright.

"Haha! What is this! I've never seen something like this before. Did the world corrupt when I was gone?"

And from his bright smiling face, I was amazed. You look like you're in your teenage years if I see you this way. Is it because his smiling face is bright like a young boy?

It was more mature than how he glared at Blackie some time ago, so now I was confused of how old he actually was.

"Huh?"

But he suddenly stopped laughing and examined my face. The face which held a faint smile was corruped by seriousness.

"Wait."

He even started to touch my face.

W-what are you doing? How dare you treat a girl's face who you just saw today this way?!

"Hmmm?"

Meanwhile, Blackie jumped down to the grass from this guy's arms.

But Blackie jumped onto my arms instead of running away. Gasp. This is great. It would've been more great if this dude in front of me wasn't here.

"What's this?"

He examined my face by turning my head in different directions. It was as if the crimson eyes close to me was looking deep into me, my soul maybe.

I couldn't push him away because I felt as if he was holding onto my soul

and controlling it.

"This is impressive. I've never seen something like this before."

The crimson eyes started to glow in interest. I just stared blankly at his eyes which was getting lively that looked like a flower blooming.

"I was bored these days but now it's going to be interesting."

It felt like a doll trying to act out with human emotions.... But now it felt like the doll has actually turned into a human.

"What to do."

But I was soon shocked at his next words.

"Should I just keep you alive?"

Umm, hey...? Is that concern related to me?

Uhh this is my life? Not your life?

What is wrong with this world that Claude along with this bast*rd here are all for my life?!

It really didn't make sense that fear wasn't the first thing that comes up, but this world's craziness.

Or maybe I didn't believe his words because his eyes looked so pure. Anyways, Isn't he really crazy?

Qing (whimpering sound of Blackie)

But then Blackie who was in my arms made a whimpering sound. From that sound, the gaze once was on me, moved to the other.

But the guy smiled kind of wickedly at Blackie.

"Okay. I'll tell you what this is. Since I am feeling good today."

Nope, I'm not curious anymore. No curiosity, no answer. Can't you just leave now? But his next words caught my interest in a second.

"This is born from your mana."

Wha, my mana?

"Born from my mana?"

When I asked feeling suspicious, he looked at me as if he was seeing an idiot again.

And of course I faltered. Y-you bast*rd! I am treated as a genius here but how dare you treat me as an idiot?

"That is why you don't contain mana even though you're a decendant. Won't your father tell you? Seeing those eyes, he must be fully royal blooded. Even though his name is Claude he is the emperor's decendant. Besides naming him Claude, I knew Aetherunistas's personality was pretty bad, but this is more than I expected."

I didn't know what part I should correct him first.

First of all, I didn't hear anything like decendant's mana from Claude, and secondly Claude wasn't a son of Aetherunistas. Didn't I mention he was the emperor THREE generations ago?!

"Ah, it's already getting annoying."

He said its annoying just speaking few words, this bast*rd!

"So you're saying Blackie is a divine animal born from my mana? What is a divine animal?"

"A divine animal...."

He thought for a while then spoke.

"You could say it's mana's crystal."

"Mana's crystal?"

"It will absorb into your body and you'll be able to use magic freely when mana's crystal turns into a airy light."

He made a face seeming to say 'do I have to explain these things too' and continued.

"And that divine animal doesn't appear to just anyone but the owner who's mana overflow it's plate. So a creature made of mana."

A bell rang in my head hearing his words.

"So that is why normally it would like to stay close to it's owner but this beast seems to be shy."

So to put it simple, it means that I'm too great, right? That is why my mana escaped me, right? Because my mana is too strong. So for my safety!

"Do you mean that I'm a great wizard?"
