Who Made Me a Princess

I heard a small mutter of 'Aren't you treating me as a bad guy too much when I saved you' from my back but that wasn't my business.

But when I was about to run to Claude, but realized I had no strength in my legs and I started to fall. Oh my. How embarrassing.

Am I going to slip and fall on a carpet after seeing this black idiot as the first thing I see after waking up from spitting out blood and suffering?

"Ack!"

I lost my balance with a pig-like sound.

But Claude caught me before falling. It seemed like Claude automatically moved when I started to fall without his wills.

Because uf it weren't, he wouldn't be this stiff and surprised by me going straight into his arms. Gasp. But you won't throw me off again, right?

Something unbelievable happened when I slowly lifted my head up.

After a while in this awkward position, Claude would just pick me up.

"Is everything fine now?"

Claude even asked for my wellness. His voice was still cold and emotionless but I saw resemblance of the emotion I heard in my dreams.

I was surprised just at that and I shook my head. Then Claude scanned me quick.

"There will be no side effect for it, correct?"

Claude who confirmed that there was nothing wrong with me turned his face towards the bed. Ah, right! Black idiot!

"Daddy, that person!"

I was going to ask why this bast*rd was here but Felix was faster.

"Ah. Seems like he is out of energy treating princess."

Yus? Wut?

Who is out of energy treating who?

I couldn't understand Felix's words. Besides why is your face like that? What's up with a touched, and thankful but pitiful face?

"I need to thank you for that. But of course after seeing this princess fine afterwards."

"I apologize but princess isn't completely healed yet."

...Huh? What?

I became speechless as the goosebumps rose.

Wasn't this the black idiot...? But who is that kid with teary eyes? Also acting mannerful?

"What do you mean not healed completely?"

"I apologize. I am too young to heal the princess completely."

I turned my head unnaturally to the black idiot like a robot.

Then I saw black head bowing to Claude.

But he was the idiot who sat legs crossed beside me a while ago.

"But she is not in a serious condition anymore so she would heal naturally soo.... Cough!"

The boy who seemed to be like 11 or 12 was holding onto his chest then started coughing as if he couldn't breathe.

"This might happen, cough. A few times afterwards, cough... however this one will gladly sacrifice himself for the pri... Uek, cough cough! Uek, gasp!"

The boy had a pale face and he fell tk the floor. Of course I was just watching him surprised that my jaws dropped.

W-what the! Who are you! Where did that idiot go?! He wasn't this young!

I felt like I just witnessed a goblin's magic. What is happening?

"Your majesty, I think it'll be better to let him rest for now. Since princess woke up now, we can talk the important stuffs later. The young wizard seemed to be tired, too"

No ine could feel bad for a suffering little boy like this. Claude made a 'tsk' sound and had to agree.

So the mini version of black idiot had to move with the support of Felix. And right before he left the room for good, he turned around with his crimson eyes looking at me. He smiled the smile of a winner.

That, that, that! He's that black idiot, right? Right?

"Princess!"

But I couldn't continue from the person who came barging in.

"Lilly!"

Lilly ran to me with her teary pale face. B-but hey, can you come in like this? Claude's here.

"Princess, to be able to meet princess again, I, I...."

Ah, you were surprised too. Well since I fainted after spitting out blood. Lilly ended up crying in front of me.

"One moth really was too long. I really thought we won't be able to see princess again...."

Hehhh? Wait. What?

"A month?"

"Yes."

The one to answer my question was Felix. And from his word which sounded relieved surprised me more.

"It's been exactly 48 days since you woke up."

"Heh?"

***

They say I woke up in a month. I really thought I dreamed for one night but 48 days! Is it real, huh?

"Of course its real."

Eating chocolate cookies on my table, the mini version of the black idiot spoke.

"Consider yourself lucky. You were going to die if I came a day later."

So explain why you are here. And why are you eating the cookies Lilly gave me to eat? Eek, you snack theif!

He didn't look anything like the boy who was dying a few days ago. He was doing too fine.

"Since I have nothing to do today, I'll just spend my time here."

"What? But you said you need one hour of time to heal me to otther people."

"Thats obviously a lie. Hah, kids who don't know the world yet."

Ack, who is ignoring who?

It was so detestable to see him munching on my cookies with a smirk.

Is this actually the kid who bowed to Claude a moment ago? Is this why your here saying you needed to be alone with me because you need to be extremely focused and so chased everyone out?

"Everyone over reacts at the handsome young skilled wizard when they see me. Anyways everyone's annoying."

Handsome young skilled wizard is sh*t.

Eek, shoot. I couldn't deny his 10 year old appearance was amazing.

Aaa I don't wanna admit! But he's too pretty! That silky black hair, even that teary crimson eyes (Of course only in front of other people) and his every part of facial structure, he really looked pretty like an immortal.

Him chewing on cookies with crumbs on his mouth looked cute as well.

"This is crazy. Why is this so good? Tell the maids to bring more of these later when they come."

But how is the inside....

I couldn't do anything but watch him eat.

"You were correct. Your dad was not Aetherunistas."

"Oppa really is an idiot, right? Aetherunistas already died 200 years ago."

Then Blackie who was under my bed carefully came out. I glared at Lucas petting Blackie.

This again? Is he some kind of 9 tailed fox who was alseep for 20 years? I really don't get him.

"I thought I felt something wrong."

Blackie was drooling at the cookies that dude was eating.

But he didn't dare take them. Same goes for me. Kuuck. Blackie, I'll give you a plate full of cookies when he leaves.

I don't know why I have to take hint even if its my house. Sob. Its unfair.

But he seemed to be a life saver in the palace. A title of a genius wizard who made a princess wake up in a month. Looks like there were a lot happening when I was asleep.

I heard it from Felix that the reason why I spat blood and fainted was because my mana started to move around rapidly all of a sudden without my control.

But no one could figure out why that happened or the solution for this to now happpen again. They say I cried waking up and fainting repeatedly.

So Claude made me sleep. And he hired a wizard who could help me.However they say every wizards would shake their head that they cannot do anything.

Meantime, this idiot happened to come and stated he can treat me.

I don't know how but he became a genius wizard supported and guarded by palace wizards. And he was acting too different of when he was with me and with the others including Claude.

He seemed to have found this fun and now he was acting like a well mannered weak and fragile handsome young genius wizard in front of others except for me.

I glimpsed at the idiot in front of me. I need to be thankful to him but strangly I don't feel anything like it.

But he smiled still chewing on his cookie when he felt my gaze on him.

"Why, you want this? Do you want to switch with that?"

"No thank you! I won't change!"

Wahh, this bast*rd is still hunting for Blackie! Blackie seemed to have also felt danger and he started to whine in my arms.

"You're too cold even though I saved you. I'll give it back after a little taste."

"No!"

A little taste?! Wahh. I cannot give Blackie away to that idiot!

He tilted his head when I showed disgust.

"Its that thing's fault you became like this?"

"What? Why is this Blackie's fault?"

"Since his mana went back into you a little. When ever you make contact with him or are close by him, his mana gets absorbed into you. This is rare. Your mana must have a strong revival system. Or you must have too much mana even for a divine animal to control."
