28. What’s Left in the Box (1)

[Chapter 28] – What’s Left in the Box (1)

“Frankenstein…”

It’s a name I really, never, completely, never want to meet.

I shook my head thinking that it might be a man with green skin and scars all over his face. Why Frankenstein in Snow White in the first place? Even if you transcend the genre, you’ve transcended it for a long time.

However, I thought that if he was the only ‘doctor’ who could fix Ainsel, it would be okay to meet him at least once. If he really is the man with the screw in his head I think he should run away.

And come to think of it, back in the days when it was a game, there was also a ‘witch in another fairy tale’ that appeared in ‘Snow White’. A witch who helps a grown princess once. I thought it was just an homage…

Are witches usually like this? Do those beings from other novels or fairy tales double as ‘witches’? When I thought about it, the fact that there were 13 of them made me dizzy.

I slowly opened the Kerven invitation sent by the white owl. I was scared for some reason, so I narrowed my eyes and opened the invitation. So let’s check the contents of the invitation-

“Huh…?”

The contents of the invitation were roughly as follows.

Gather in an unknown area on the night of the full moon. In the invitation, with my daughter, it was written in one line. As soon as I saw the contents, I burst out laughing without knowing it.

‘I can’t even leave the castle, so where do I go during the night?’

I could go out of the castle, but at least it was a position that I couldn’t go out ‘alone’. Did I expect too much from witches? I thought I would borrow the power of the fairies to teleport or teleport, but…

‘I can’t help it. If I can’t go, I have no choice but to call them here.’

I took out the stationery from the desk drawer and started writing a letter. Ainsel said that the witches definitely knew that I wasn’t ‘Vivian’, so I didn’t have to hide it.

I briefly wrote down what had happened so far, but before I knew it, the letter was going over three chapters. I read the letter I wrote carefully once again, and smiled bitterly at the contents.

Summarize the content of the letter I wrote.

‘Something crazy is going on here in the royal family. Please help me.’

[Aurora, the first queen of this country, turned over the corpse of her fairy, ‘Ryananshi’, and sucked the blood of her husband, the king, with it. And that wasn’t enough, so she possessed her king with her own corpse.

I don’t know why. I think Aurora was tricked by someone because they wanted to become one with each other. The king is already dead, and according to her Sylphy, her brother Laura will die soon too.

In the meantime, my friend Ainsel lost her consciousness due to the ‘rebound of the contract’. We need a ‘fairy doctor’ called ‘Frankenstein’ who can fix Ainsel. Can you help me?]

He folded the letter carefully and put it inside the envelope. Then, after taking out a sealing stamp with the seal of the royal family taken out of the drawer, I fanned it a few times to dry it well.

After confirming that the seal of the royal family was properly stamped on the red sealing seal, I glanced around and looked at Sylphy, who was lying on my bed and sleeping soundly.

Sylphy was sleeping comfortably on the futon, holding the round magic candy in her arms. When all the magic candy I made was eaten, there was only one candy left in Sylphy’s arms.

I collected the mana that had fallen all the way to the floor, made three magic candies, and placed them in front of Sylphy. Sylphy opened her eyes and looked at me as if she had smelled the sweet magical power.

“Can I ask you one last favor?”

Sylphy rubbed her sleepy eyes and nodded her head.

“Send this letter to the witch who sent me the invitation. Or you can send it to that witch called ‘Frankenstein’.”

-That’s easy enough. It’ll take some time, but let’s get back to you soon.

Sylphy, who stretched her wings all the way up, let out a big yawn, then lifted up the letter I handed her. The letter was three times the size of Sylphy’s, but when Sylphy folded the letter, it quickly shrunk to the size of a fingernail.

Sylphy took the letter from her with both hands and flapped her wings gently, then flew through the sky and headed for her window. She said it was okay to go to bed for the night, but Sylphy shook her head and urged her to open the window.

-The baby is in charge of the candy, but he’ll be back to pick it up soon.

“You have to be careful.”

-Huh, yeah, baby, try to be careful while I’m gone.

When I opened the window, Sylphy really flew up into the sky like the wind. As Sylphy disappeared from sight in an instant, I thought that the letter would be delivered soon.

As I looked at Sylphy who had disappeared through the star-studded night sky, I let out a worried sigh and closed the window. All I could do now was wait.

Waiting for the king’s body to be found and waiting for a reply to the letter to the witch. Clearly, thinking that it wouldn’t take long, I turned my head and looked at Ainsel’s main body.

Looking at the still unresponsive Ainsel, he sighed again and lay down on the bed. It was late, so I thought I should go to bed.

I have a lot of work to do tomorrow.

Since then, four days have passed.

For four days, there was still no contact from Sylphy, and Ainsel was still unconscious. And yet, no one had noticed that the king was dead.

Bangshow, who had been handing out food and paints in front of his room every day, must have noticed it, and his expression as he watched the food piled up and rotting in front of the room started to get darker.

Looking at that figure, for some reason, I felt like I was holding a time bomb that was about to explode. A time bomb that is certain to explode soon.

Effortlessly ignoring the creeping guilt, I continued the princess’ class today. However, the absence of Aincel, who was in charge of the princess’s party etiquette and other education, was greater than expected.

I remembered the conversation I had with the princess on the first day of class without Aincel. The princess looked up at me with slightly worried eyes after confirming that there was no Ainsel attached to my ear.

“Your Highness the Queen… What about Ainsel…?”

“…Ainsel is taking a break because he is sick. Don’t worry, I’ll get better soon.”

“So, would it be all right if I go to the hospital…?”

The princess was at a loss when she heard that Ainsel was sick and asked me. I gently stroked the restless princess’ hair and tried to lie.

“Ainsel went to see the doctor for a while. That’s why I’m not here… Really don’t worry. She is with the doctor who treats fairies well.”

“Ummm…”

I placed my hands in the armpits of the princess with her lips pouting and lifted them up high to hug her, so I could see her sullen face even better. A face that looks like it’s about to cry, and a look that looks like it’s upset.

To the princess, Ainsell is her first friend, so she must be very worried. She still couldn’t help it. Because Ainsel is still unconscious.

I let out a small sigh and, holding the princess in my arms, headed for her class room. Ainsel is also worried, but the princess has to worry more about her ‘her birthday party’ that is just around the corner.

Because it’s my job now to make this boobies princess dance her perfect waltz. I smiled as I looked at the princess in my arms.

“Worry about the class before Ainsel. Did you memorize all the dance moves I taught you last time?”

“Yes, yes…! I practiced with Ellie! Ellie said it was perfect now!”

The princess performed one of her dance moves, raising her arms above her head in my arms. According to Ellie, the princess danced this rhythm every day in her room.

At this rate, wouldn’t it really be taller than me someday? Thinking that such a day would come someday made me smile without knowing it.

“Then let’s learn a different rhythm today. Because I promised to teach you another dance.”

“Yes!”

As if expecting a new rhythm, the princess smiled broadly and started singing her rhythmic song with her hum.

So, four days have passed since I taught the princess a new dance.

Party, pair, pair!

From noble mtl dot com

“One, two, three! One, two, three!”

The princess began to step in her own waltz to the sound of my applause. The tempo is still strong and the body is limp like a squid, but it is definitely better than before.

If it used to be an earthworm, should we call it a squid now?

The appearance of the princess continuing the dance with erratic steps was still dangerous. I was still busy stepping on my skirt and stumbling around in place every two times.

“Ah, wow…!”

Again, the princess, who was spinning in a circle, stepped on her skirt and stumbled. Watching that, I tried to hold the princess’s shoulder without realizing it, but the princess stood tall again and continued her steps.

‘Is it because there is no one to lead?’

The princess still found it difficult to spin in place. I wondered who the princess’ dance partner would be, but it was clear that, if nothing happened, it would be an aristocratic child the princess’s age.

Originally, the royal family’s first dance partner was his parents, the king. It was also customary for children of the princess’s age to perform from the second dance. But now there is no king…

Since the princess also has to enter the social world after this birthday party, I thought it wouldn’t be a bad idea to partner up with an aristocratic child the princess’s age and get a face stamp.

It is said that the social world is like a jungle to the extent that there is a social world for children and a social world for adults. I was worried that such a fragile princess would be able to live in such a tough social world.

Let’s watch the princess dance while lost in thought like that-

Good!

“Ha ha ha…!”

After the final movement of the waltz, the princess let out a weary sigh and wiped the sweat from her forehead with the back of her hand. It’s still awkward and lacking, but there was no doubt that it was a big growth just by finishing it.

Perhaps he was moved by the fact that he had finished the dance, the princess looked at me with bright eyes like a deer. I clapped my hands at that figure and lifted the princess with all my strength and hugged her.

“I guess I can do a little more now. Shall we stop here today?”

“Yeah… my leg hurts so much…”

The princess knocking on my knee while holding me in my arms rested her head on my shoulder as if in distress. Feeling the weight of the princess, which still felt light, the moment I tried to put the princess on the bed-

Smart-

Someone knocked on the classroom door. When I told her to come in to see what was going on, Ellie entered her room and looked at me with her hands trembling, her face contemplative.

Looking at that expression, I could tell.

“Wow, Her Highness the Queen… Hold on… Her Excellency the Prime Minister…”

“…Yes. Go soon.”

That Vinshaw had noticed the king’s death.
