Can You Please Keep the Original Setting?
Chapter 12.2
Just because they weren’t wizards, it didn’t mean that magic power didn’t exist in people’s bodies, but most of the people who knew how to energize weapons became knights. Cain belonged to that type.
“But you only brought one escort. Are you sure it’s okay? There are not many people here.”
I was out of breath. I glanced back at the knight escorting the princess. It wasn’t yet time for the incident to happen, but still, she was the princess. And I also left Ian back there.
“Of course. Our castle is absolutely safe. And the Archmage built a protective shield for us! He also repairs it every year.”
“But, Ingrit. Wait, wait a moment. I can’t breathe…”
I took my palm to my chest to catch my breath. I felt a slight dizziness and my vision faded for a moment. Immediately, my legs gave in.
“Are you alright?!”
The knight behind us hastily supported me.
“Oh my! What should I do? I’m sorry!”
Ingrit, who was one step ahead of me, examined my complexion in surprise. Then, she started half crying.
“Shall we sit down for a moment?”
“There’s no need for that, just walk slowly.”
“Alright, I’m sorry. I was careless. I still have a long way to go. I couldn’t be more stupid.”
Her shoulders drooped and she started blaming herself. After saying three times that I was fine and telling her to stop, Ingrit stopped talking to herself.
Fortunately, she didn’t walk fast after that. But she glanced at my face the whole time as we chatted.
“Well! Here it is!”
The place where Ingrit stopped was in front of a small side door.
“There’s someone I want to introduce you to, Celina!”
She grabbed the doorknob with a very excited face. I entered the open door. The smell of perfume filled the room with mirrors and cosmetics, so it seemed like a dressing room.
Inside, a young woman was sitting with her back turned to us. The strange thing was that she was looking at the wall, not at the mirror.
“She is the female protagonist of today’s performance. She wanted to get acquainted with you first, Celina. Diana? I’m here. What are you doing?”
Ingrit asked in a soft voice as she approached her. The actress’ profile view was obscured by her coveted orange hair, so she could not be seen.
As she slowly got up from where she was sitting, a sudden tingling sensation spread all over my neck. Dark energy fluttered before my eyes.
“Hello?”
The moment I questioned, a husky voice rang in my ear.
… Why did you come here?
I realized the situation a few seconds later. I belatedly realized that this lump of black light that wrapped around my neck in an instant was a restraint that Elijah had refined with powerful magic.
It was messed up. How could this suddenly be so unimaginably twisted? The original story was about someone disguised as a knight kidnapping her.
The confusion increased and a swear automatically welled up, but no words came out because of the restraint.
“Princess, if you do anything nonsense, this woman will die right here.”
The villain’s subordinate dared to grab Celina by the hair and shoved the escort against the wall, knocking him out. My face crumpled in pain. Tears welled up.
“…”
Ingrit’s lips trembled with tension as she was surprised and unable to say anything. Her green eyes were constantly scanning her surroundings. Unfortunately, in my setting, Elijah and the villain Zeno could not detect each other’s magic, so there was no one to help us at this moment.
Even if the knights could infuse their swords with special energy and attack, it was, of course, impossible to go against a wizard who borrowed the power of the main villain. At the very least, it was only possible for someone like Cain.
I could clearly see that she was anxious. However, right now, my reason for being anxious was different from Ingrit’s.
How could they kidnap Celina and not the princess, who was standing there so terrified?!
After the opera is over and the princess is captured, Cain and Mikael come together and do all kinds of things. And they also meet one of the main target characters; the villain Zeno, who has his own circumstances.
[Oh no. Something’s wrong. Keep your chin up.]
Even the chat window was making me angry. The man undid his transformation and murmured sneakily next to my ear. I got goosebumps and wanted to cover my ears, but my hands were also not free because of the restraints. Suddenly, I felt like crying.
“Well, shall we see how quickly the Great Archmage will come to rescue his beloved daughter? Then, make sure to let him know, Princess.”
The man behind me said so, casting movement magic.
Hey, you lunatic! It’s not me, it’s her―!! I shouted as I was helplessly captured. Though, of course, none of it could come out of my mouth.
