Who Made Me a Princess

Chapter 82

Translator: HH Editor: HH

I looked at Claude like I couldn’t believe he was being serious.

No, it’s nice to have someone who’s been through life and death back, but what kind of joke was this?

Lili and Felix had very shocked faces, but this situation didn’t feel realistic anymore, so I just didn’t feel anything.

What? You don’t remember me? No, does that make sense? Ah Is this the case?

“Is this a secret camera?” “Hm?”

Felix and Lili looked at me as if asking what I was talking about.

You’re not trying to make fun of me, are you? It was also weird that Claude, who had been asleep for 15 days, woke up as soon as I arrived.

Yeah, it was ridiculous from the beginning. I couldn’t believe that this man almost died trying to save me a single bit.

“You’re all messing around now, aren’t you? It’s not funny.”

I said so and looked at Claude again. And I stretched out my hand toward him, still half-lying on the bed.

Dang. No matter how bad it was, how could you play such a nasty prank? My heart almost stopped thinking it was real. Oh, it was a relief it was a joke…….

“Dad ”

“Do you want to die?”

But my hand was blocked by a grim voice that dug into my eardrums, and I stopped in the air. “How dare you continue blabbering in front of me?”

In an instant, the air around me became cold.

“Yes. And now I see, your eyes, at least, are of the royal family’s.”

.I had no choice but to look, frozen, into his eyes.

“Do I have to pull out your eyes for you to stop saying that you’re my daughter?”

At that moment he was not the Claude I had known. My hand, which had stopped in the air, trembled for a moment.

What is this ? Why are you looking at me with such hostility?

What filled me now was an uncanny sense of looking at a stranger. “But wait a minute ”

I stared at him, unbreathing, until Claude frowned and opened his mouth as if he had found something weird.

“But why is the magic power in my body Ow!”

However, Claude’s body was folded in half as he wanted a suppressed groan. It was just then that black blood began pouring over the white duvet.

“Your Majesty!”

Dead blood dripped from Claude’s fingers.

“Your Majesty! The palace doctor, I will call the palace doctor!” “Why am I! Cough!”

Claude painfully bowed his upper body forward, and once again, black blood poured out.

Soon the room was filled with the peculiar smell of blood. Felix rushed out of the door, and Lili wiped the blood that soaked Claude’s mouth with a quick movement.

But Claude continued to cough up blood without a rest and made a black mark on the white duvet. I couldn’t do anything other than standing still like a stone statue.

Now, I can hardly remember what happened afterwards.

After a while, a group of people who looked to be courtesans and magicians rushed into Claude’s bedroom and made a fuss, but as soon as I woke up I was lying down in a bed. Lili said it was because of

my mental shock. So I was taken to the Emerald Palace after being treated by the palace doctor. And until after a week, I wasn’t able to see Claude again.

***

My routine has been normal ever since. Eat, sleep, eat, sleep, eat and sleep…….

No, this wasn’t normal, I was just being lazy.

Since this was the first time since I was a kid that I fainted, and I was literally treated like a flower in a greenhouse.

I asked Lily what happened to the tea party, and she said her and Felix took care of it.

I became more concerned because Jannette was beside me at the time and had fainted as well.

But Lily happened to know news of her injury and said that she only had faint bruises. Blackie was behaving calmly after that day too.

When I heard that, I felt relieved.

I didn’t deserve to think that since it was my fault, but I was still glad no one else had gotten hurt.

It was weird Claude was letting Blackie be. Did he not know this had happened because I touched Blackie?

I tossed and turned in my bed and looked at the ceiling.

It’s been a while since I saw Felix. He used to come and update me about Claude, but he was silent these days.

Immediately after Claude woke up, Felix had stayed right by his side. They were my orders. I figured someone should stay close to him because he didn’t seem to be okay. So like 9 years ago, Felix remained with Claude at all time.

Based on what he told me a while ago, Claude was feeling a lot better. He didn’t vomit blood anymore, and had healed a lot.

He said that he had started to take care of the things that had been pushed back because he was unconscious spring, and now everyone could relax a little.

To be honest, I was able to rest assured after hearing that.

I thought that’s what would happen. What kind of person is Claude, after all? He only saved me because he knew he could. I mean, Claude looks like he’s going to beat a bear with his bare hands! But he wouldn’t risk his life to save me.

That’s it…….he’s not a fool, and he wouldn’t have stepped up knowing he could potentially die…since when was he such a sacrificing person?

I repeated my thoughts to myself so I was convinced.

But I didn’t like how he immediately got back to working again. He didn’t know how to take care of himself. Did he think he was a triathlete?

After a while, however, a little doubt and anxiety began to grow in my mind. Why wasn’t he coming to see me?

Was he not in shape to come visit me at the Emerald Palace? Wasn’t he even curious? Of course, I didn’t forget about Claude not recognizing me

But Felix and Lily clearly told me that Claude woke up for the first time in fifteen days, and so that’s why he was confused. And I thought so, too.

Wasn’t that so? Claude, the fearsome man, nearly dying because of me, but even more so, struggling with the aftereffects with his memory? No, no, no, no. It was such a foolish idea that I laughed.

So I just decided to think that Claude was busy.

Yeah, yeah. He used to pull all nighters finishing his work, so he was just playing catch up after 15 days. I was the cause of the situation, so I didn’t deserve to say anything.

I was still a tiny bit upset he didn’t come visit me, but oh well.

I convinced myself, and pushed back going to see Claude day after day.

***

I stared blankly at the blue bird in the cage as it began to chirp, flapping its wings.

I was so bored these days because I had nothing to do except for breathing. Except for eating and sleeping, the only thing that I did was look at Bluie.

I couldn’t even read a book or leave for a walk under Lili’s strict orders.

The palace doctor had visited the Emerald Palace and said I was fine to continue on with my normal lifestyle, but Lili was adamant to the point that I thought she was being too much.

So now Hannah and Ces had to stay inside my room with me as well. If I got caught trying to sneak out of my room like last time, I would have to listen to Lili’s endless nagging. Which was the only reason why I stayed in my room. But that was my strategy to lower their defenses!

I realized that for the past few days, security had become more loose, and decided to escape from my room today.

Knock knock.

“Princess, I’m heading in.”

“Aw. Blueie is such a good little boy. You must’ve been so hungry!”

I pretended I didn’t notice her entering my room and played with Bluie. He tilted his head at me as if asking why I was acting so nice, but I didn’t care.

Lili quietly closed the door and left so as to not bother my resting time, and I stopped feeding Bluie. I could hear the footsteps moving away from my door and stood up.

Nice. This was my chance! Creak.

The sound of the door opening was louder than I expected. I peeked my head out into the hall. Ah. Going outside like this reminded me of the old times when I hid my little pretty jewels.
