38. The Time Without You

[Episode 38] – The Time Without You

-Vivian…?

“Ainsell?”

Ainsel’s expression began to brighten as he looked at me with a calm voice. When she finally thought that Ainsel had come to her consciousness, a feeling of crying came up involuntarily.

To be honest, up until now, the anxiety of not knowing what would happen to Ainsel had occupied one side of my mind. She said she believed me, but she said, what if I can’t help and end up wrong? Anxiety to do.

As soon as that anxiety disappeared, the tears in my eyes grew redder without realizing it. In order not to be caught crying, she let out a long sigh and looked at Ainsel.

As if Ainsel was still awake, she looked at me and smiled bashfully. Are you laughing now? I thought it was just burning up my stomach until now.

For no reason, I swept away leaving her fingerprints all over Aincell’s body. Then, Ainsel let out a small scream.

-Why, why are you doing this…!

“Are you laughing?! Do you know how worried I was?! You said it as if you believed in me, but after that, your consciousness suddenly didn’t come back, so I was very nervous…!”

I was relieved a little when I rubbed the mirror and made it full of fingerprints. Ainsel struggled with her hands as if she couldn’t see her well and urged her to quickly wipe the mirror.

“Really… He asked to see me in the room, but he suddenly lost consciousness, and after looking into it, he said he didn’t know when he would come back to consciousness because of the contract…”

-I’m sorry… I really didn’t know it would happen then…

“Profit! Make no excuses!”

As I smeared her fingerprints on Ain Cell, who made an annoying excuse, Ain Cell burst into tears as if she were about to cry. It’s me who wants to cry, but what makes Ji cry?

After a few more minutes of fighting with Ainsel, she finally wiped the fingerprints off the mirror. Ainsel, who opened his eyes as if he could finally see what was ahead, hesitated while looking at me.

“…But I’m glad, it’s worth the treatment from Fran.”

-…? Are you franc? No way, you mean Frankenstein from Kerven?

“Yeah, right. That Frankenstein. For now, we should talk while you’re gone.”

After Ainsel lost her consciousness, I began to explain step by step what she had been through. Thinking back, a lot of things happened.

“First of all, after entering the room you opened, I realized that the king was dead and that Aurora had become a lianas. And with Sylphy’s help, I was able to get out of there.”

The thing that expelled Aurora with Sylphy’s help.

“And in the end, the king was found dead by Vinshaw. Including Aurora’s corpse. Sylphy said that maybe Aurora was dead too. I haven’t really seen it since.”

After that, the bodies of Wang and Aurora were found.

“Then… The king’s funeral.”

The king was found dead and held a funeral.

“After the death of the king, the council of elders held a meeting to ask what to do with me, who did not receive the royal family name, and I ended up staying here until the princess’s academy graduation ceremony.”

Fighting with the Council of Elders because of my treatment.

“And… To wake you up, I sent you a letter after noticing that there is a doctor, Fran, who treats fairies in Kerven. That’s how Fran came to visit her, and she healed you.”

Sylphy brought Fran through a letter sent to Kerven.

“And before Frank came here…”

And even the story of ‘The Little Mermaid’ by ‘someone’.

I told him everything I had been through, but Ainsel didn’t say anything and avoided my gaze with a look that looked like he was going to cry.

“…It’s not your fault. Why are you crying so much?”

-But… I made a mistake… You were having a hard time alone…

“…It was difficult. How many times have you asked, ‘What would it be like if you were here? Could I have made a slightly different choice?'”

Ainsel’s shoulders trembled at my words.

Does Ainsel think I’m blaming him? I slowly brought my forehead to the surface of the mirror, Ainsel. I could feel the cold inorganic texture, but the place she touched was warm.

“So… If you’re going to do this, don’t do weird things like you’re going to take responsibility next time. Got it? Because I’m really tough. I get really tired if you don’t help me.”

-I’m sorry…

“I didn’t mean to apologize. Just say yes.”

-…Okay. I won’t do that again.

As I removed her forehead from the mirror, I saw Ainsel crying.

Ainsel, who had been crying, met her eyes with me and eventually burst into tears. I pretended to stroke Ainsel’s hair and smiled bitterly.

After Aincel calmed down to some extent, we talked about many things.

The most intense conversation among them was the moment when Aurora’s death was confirmed. Ainsel, who couldn’t say anything about Aurora because of her contract-

-Aurora XXX! XXXX! Ah! Cool inside! You are finally dead!

He proved Aurora’s death by cursing at her.

Because they said that the contract is canceled when the other person dies. Ainsel, who was caught in a ‘contract that could not harm Aurora’, jumped and jumped with joy at the fact that Aurora had died and that her contract had ended.

I don’t know if she died before I knew it, but I was able to feel a little relieved by the death of my younger brother Laura, who was so ambiguous. It was as if nothing threatened the princess anymore.

I asked as I looked at Ainsel, who was jumping and jumping with joy.

“If you hate it so much, how the hell did you get caught on a contract?”

-You said it then. ‘Someone’ stole my body. For a very, very short time, I was distracted by my alter ego for a while. When I came to my senses, I was confined to that room, and in the end, I was forced to sign a contract.

The ‘someone’ that Ainsel, who was running around saying he was angry, said.

Perhaps, the ‘someone’ who turned Aurora into Ryanan City, manipulated the Little Mermaid, and stole Ainsel’s body was all the same person.

Who the hell is that?

Why do people who are obsessed with love create a terrible ending by turning them into other ‘fairies’?

The Little Mermaid also said that the last figure discovered was not a ‘mermaid’, but another ‘fairy’.

There was no doubt that that ‘someone’ was making a ‘fairy’, whether it was a fairy or a human.

I don’t know why, but it only seemed to harm people who were obsessed with ‘love’.

“…Well, they say they do it on their own, won’t they be caught soon? Because Fran said she didn’t need my help. You will do well.”

-…Come to think of it, why do you call him Fran?

“Yeah, because Fran told me to call it that. And, you seem to be closer to the princess than close to me. Because we practice dancing together every day, but? At first, the princess really hated Fran…”

Every time he talked about Fran and the princess, Ainsel’s complexion turned pale. Ainsel, who was boiling with the feeling of having the princess’s friend position taken away, asked to go to the princess right away, but-

“Calm down… Princess, it’s already bedtime. So, let’s wake up tomorrow morning and go straight to it. I’m sure the princess will like it too.”

-Is that so…? Could it be too late…? Now, if you like that witch more than me…

“There is no such thing. Don’t mind too much… Oh right, come to think of it, what about her earrings?”

I couldn’t even carry her body around, and although it was definitely heavy, it was much more comfortable to carry the ainsel around her ears.

She originally intended to make it her necklace, but when it was made into her necklace, her breasts made Ainsel’s gaze uncomfortable, so she had no choice but to wear it on her ear.

Ainsel said not to worry. There is a small box under her bed, so she said to open it. She leaned down and looked under the bed. She saw that there was a really small box that she took out and opened.

In the box were many mirror earrings. Her decorations were a little different, but when she picked up one of her earrings, small enough for Ainsel to fit in, she called out to me with Ainsel smiling.

-I always have replacements for earrings here. You can take it and come closer to me.

“Like this?”

As I approached Ainsel’s body with her earring, a small figure of Ainsel began to be reflected in the mirror attached to her earring. Could this be her way of creating an alter ego? I was accustomed to wearing her earrings in my ears to check.

-Ha… This is a stable eye level. It seems like a really long time.

“My ears hurt because I haven’t worn earrings in a long time.”

Let’s say it in a grumbling tone, Ainsel also giggled and laughed. She put the ainsel on her ear and looked around her room. As expected, her earrings were the most familiar and nice.

I whispered in a small voice as I stroked Ainsel, who hadn’t felt familiar in a long time. Ainsel rejoices in her recovery.

“Welcome, Ainsel.”

-I’m back. Vivian.

-Princess!!!!!

“Ainsell!!!!!”

Wow!

As soon as Ainsel informed her that she was conscious, the princess hugged her earring containing Ainsel. As the princess rubbed herself in the mirror, she could tell whether it was a dream or reality.

When he realized that this was reality, he looked at Ainsel with tears in his eyes and smiled bashfully. He said he was really fortunate, and that he really missed him while he was away.

Then Ainsel also cried and shed tears like a princess. She said that she was the same, and that she wanted to see the princess. She said she was sorry Whoops.

‘It looks nice…’

It was nice to see the princess holding a mirror and jumping around and rejoicing at Aincell’s return. As she looked at it, she saw Fran, who had come to my side before she knew it, staring at me.

It’s still expressionless, but I was able to learn a little how to read Fran’s expression, probably because we spent some time together. Frank’s expression now was regretful.

“Are you afraid you will fall with the princess?”

At my question, Frank shook his head.

“No. My work here is now done. We will return to our home as quickly as possible.”

“Already? Can’t we go see the princess’s ball? The princess would want that too.”

“That is-“

Just as her franc was about to say something, the princess grabbed her franc by the sleeve and raised her head to look at her franc. She looked up at her francs with her deer-like sad eyes, as if to say, “Where are you going, don’t go?”

“Going already?”

“…No. I will visit the princess’s ball and go back.”

“Ehehehe.”

The princess smiled broadly as she held the franc in one hand and the ainsel in the other. Is she glad she has two friends? The princess started introducing each other to Fran and Ainsel.

“This is Ainsell! My friend, the mirror fairy!”

“…Nice to meet you. Ainsell.”

“This is my friend Fran! It’s an artificial human!”

-…Nice to meet you. Frankenstein.

…Does the princess know that out of the three of them, she is the only one who really laughs?

In contrast to the smiling princess, Fran was still expressionless, and Ainsel had a confused expression.

Let’s look at the three beautiful greetings like that-

The queen’s maid knocked on the door.

“Come in.”

“Your Highness the Queen, Her Highness the Queen Mother said, ‘When the hell are you going to come looking for me? If he doesn’t come today, I’ll see you at the ball.'”

“Ah.”

“And… This is my personal opinion, but I think Her Highness will be angry if she visits Her Highness within today…”

As the queen’s handmaid looked at me with really worried eyes, it was only then that I remembered.

She promised to tell the Queen Mother that she would name the princess within two weeks.

And, the date promised as of yesterday has passed.

‘…A big trouble.’
