Surviving in my Own Unpublished Failed Novel

~ Knock knock knock…~

"Princess, Princess! Wake up, it's almost 7 A.M now, you're going to be late in class!"

The sound of knocking reverberated on one of the dorm room in the Rigel Building where the students from A-1 Class resides; a maid personally assigned to Elizabeth von Etherion, a Princess of the country 'Etheria' on the Northernmost part of the Orion Continent, persistently calling to the sleeping Princess.

"Arghhhh!"

Opening her light green eyes that seems like to contain the depth of nature itself, she unconsciously checked the time beside her bed where a small clock were place on a study desk.

6:45 A.M

As Elizabeth saw the time when her class' start is 7 A.M, even though the place where she's sleeping in is within the Obelisk Academy itself, considering the large area and the room location for her class, and preparing herself, she would still be late unless…

[Activating Skill: Body Purification]

[The body of the target been cleanse]

[Your body will continually be cleanse automatically for 5 minutes]

A green light enveloped her body as the unwanted dirt were cleanse instantly before she even got up from her bed.

"Elein, have you prepared a breakfast?"

She asked while sitting on the bed in stupor, seemingly want to sleep more.

Elein, her maid face palmed with the Princess' question because there's no time to think about such meal considering the time.

"Princess, I'm sorry, but the food are almost cold right now." She replied with a worried tone as she's standing in front of the closed door with the room number '2'.

"Don't worry about it, you can go now. I'll be out in 10."

Elizabeth sighed a relief as she don't want to trouble her maid. Though she's a maid, she considers her as a nanny as Elein was there when she's born, and took care of her until today.

"Alright, Princess, good luck in your class. If you need anything later, just call me, I'll be in the lodging!"

Even though A-1 students reside on the 'Rigel Building', one of the difference between the aristocratic, wealthy renowned individuals and commoners was the option to pick their own personal maids and butler to go guide and serve them while they're in 'Rigel Building'. Considering the status of people like Samantha Hall, Princess Elizabeth, Anya Amasawa, Rumia Flora, and Leon von Obreyon, they have the privilege to choose their own attendants, while people who managed to become an A-11 student due to various reason such as potential talent were assigned their own attendants by the Obelisk Academy. One might think the unfairness of treatment, but the assigned attendants to commoner A-1 students were by no means incapable. Privilege like that were given to the tycoons' daughters and son with the premise that they will lead the future of humanity after their parents.

…

Arriving inside the classroom, Elizabeth looked around and started greeting some students.

"Good morning Rumia!"

"Good morning Samantha!

The two people received her greetings, and nodded at her.

'Ah! I wanna sleep more,' she inwardly lamented.

Contrary to her status as a Princess of the country 'Etheria', she's a free-spirited person that one might think she's not a part of nobility at all.

Her parents didn't force their ideals to their child unlike some aristocrats, developing her free-spirited behavior causing her to be approachable, but she's not naïve that everyone who approach her would have a good intention, even though she's like a bird that had let go of her mother, she's a rational and powerful woman befitting of a Rank 2 position in the whole first year class.

…

'Monster and Anatomy Evolution Class'

"Chaos Miasma was felt with every monster whether alive or after its death in every Tower Dungeon Raid, but wild beasts outside the Tower Dungeons also exudes something called 'Chaos Miasma' based on the System's messages received by the Players who slayed them.

Question, does monster evolution achieved by consuming the Chaos Miasma of another monsters?"

Professor Emmanuel Lyncoster, the scholar and researcher of Monster Origin Research in the Obelisk Institute of the Origin, asked and called the student with blonde hair and light green eyes.

"Ms. Elizabeth, what are your thoughts?" he asked.

"Sir Lyncoster, based on researches on previous years until today, there's not much known regarding the 'Chaos Miasma', but if I'm going to have an opinion regarding such matters, I'd say that 'Chaos Miasma' is like a 'Blood-Type' that humans have. Experimentations showed that collecting Chaos Miasma on a specific monster, for example Goblins, using a special tool, then injecting it to another monster showed abnormal reactions, but surprisingly, injecting Goblin's Chaos Miasma to Orcs seems to produce relatively good results."

Elizabeth answered the question with a straight face as if she studied such things for a long period of time, other students who were listening to her explanation gawked at her as if imaginary smoke came out of their heads, even Freya Moon, didn't understand a single thing about such process or experimentations like that.

"I'm impress, Ms. Elizabeth. Everyone, listen. Based on Ms. Elizabeth's answer, it was proven, until further research that 'Chaos Miasma' acts like a Blood-Type with different signatures that affects different kind of monsters on various ways. It's the same way that holy or divine mana cannot possibly co-exists with unholy or evil mana."

"Now, if you're wondering about the difference between 'Chaos Miasma' and 'Chaos Aura', it is that Chaos Miasma refers to the 'chaos power' in the surroundings or environment like air, while Chaos Aura is within the body of a monster. Remember that no human could ever have 'Chaos Aura' inside his or her own body."

The curious Elizabeth raised her hand, taking the opportunity to ask a question back to the professor which is a scholar and researcher.

"Sir, based on what you said just now that no human 'ever' have 'Chaos Aura', does it mean it's not possible for someone to possess it in the future? How could you claim such conjectures? Does it mean there were human experimentations, forcefully injecting chaos inside their bodies thus making the inference of 'no human could ever have' Chaos Aura?"

Rumia Flora, who's beside Elizabeth elbowed her, and whisper something with a tone of concern.

"Hey, hey Elzabeth, what are you doing?"

Looking at her side, Elizabeth replied to her with a monotonous tone.

"I'm asking the right questions."

Rumia face palmed with the stubbornness of Elizabeth, thinking of their difference and similarities.

'We're both Princess, you know! Your tone of asking is condescending!', she sighed looking at the other Princess beside her, continuing to tell her point to the professor who's listening professionally.

…

'This Princess will attract more danger in the future for a different reason than being a noble.'

Professor Lyncoster thought as she listened to the thorough questions that seems to pierce that missing puzzles of incomplete unknown researches.

"To answer one of your questions Ms. Elizabeth, yes, there were human experimentations that failed that tried to absorb chaos through their bodies. That's all the answer I can give you because regarding the name of organization or group that did those kind of horrible things, it is not something I could divulge on my own discretion."

Different reactions of students were painted on their own faces; gasps, shock, concern, daze, and unimaginable expressions seeped into their hearts, even Elizabeth who asked the questions agape with professor Lyncoster's answer as she didn't expect such information to be said.

"I am telling you all such things because in the future, you will encounter far more dangerous and terrible things, so better to learn to be responsible of your own actions, not to regret it later."

~ Diriririring! ~

A bell sounded, signalling the end of the class. Professor left the classroom with an expression of professional as if nothing happened.

…

"Hey, Elizabeth! Want to grab a breakfast? I haven't eat earlier, sigh…"

Rumia Flora asked Elizabeth who's writing something on her notebook while looking at it with a serious expression on her face.

"Nevermind, hey Leon! Samantha? Accompany me!"

'Why does no one wants to accompany me? The mood became sour because of last class, it's not even a Philosophy subject!' she lampooned.

She looked around the classroom, hoping for someone to accompany her while lamenting within herself, felt like an abandoned child, then she saw a girl, waiting for other two women tidying their belongings, and without a second thought, she approached them.

…

"Hi...? Can I join you guys?"

A woman with a noble aura, pigtail blonde hair, and sapphire-like eyes, at least 165 cm in height asked Freya, Amery, and Amelie a sudden question, prompting the trio to be stupefied.

'What's going on?'

'What's going on?'

'What's going on?'

As if the trio have a hivemind, thought of the same thing without speaking with each other. The five-second silence resulted to the awkwardness of the situation, and Rumia, who asked something out of place said…

"Ahhh… are you guys going to the cafeteria?"

'I asked them if I could join them without knowing first where they'll go! What an embarrassment!'

"Yes, why?" Said Freya, the assumed leader of the trio.

"That… yes, ha ha haha." With an awkward laugh, Rumia felt like she lost her nobility.

"No problem, you can go along, we're going in the same place, after all." Freya replied, showing consideration with the sudden predicament of a poor noble, while prompting Amery and Amelie to move. Rumia followed suit.

'What a weirdo.'

'What a weirdo.'

'What a weirdo.'

The trio respectively thought.
