353 – Friday the 13th (6)
Even if you are a strong person, your stamina will eventually run out. In particular, if you move inefficiently, your stamina is greatly consumed.
Diana was using all her strength, but she was nothing more than a flower in a greenhouse. Moreover, she is a wizard.
It is already common knowledge that wizards have weak physical strength. Workers who would rather read one more book than exercise.
“Lower jaw… Lower jaw… Lower jaw…”
Diana was panting her breath heavily. She could feel that her stamina was slowly running out.
But paradoxically, the fact that you are out of breath means that you have stamina.
When a person’s physical strength is truly low, most people’s reactions boil down to one thing.
“Cough! Ugh! Ugh!”
Difficulty breathing accompanied by nausea. It’s graceful, it’s rude, and that reaction is completely normal.
As a result, Diana had no choice but to stop in place due to sudden breathing difficulty.
After a while, she was able to catch her breath, but it was still difficult.
In particular, her entire body was soaked with sweat and it felt very heavy.
“Huh…Huh…”
Diana weeps, shedding tears and snot befitting the dignity of a princess. It didn’t matter whether her makeup was ruined or not.
She only has one instinct left: her survival instinct. She struggled to somehow escape from Shivar.
‘I miss my mom. Mom······’
She is her mother who has already returned to her her natural embrace her. But her children always miss their mother’s embrace her.
Moreover, Diana’s mental state could be seen from the fact that she called her ‘Mom’rather than an extreme title such as ‘Mama’.
She is pushed to her limit and feels like clinging to straws.
Her feelings she got worse because no one was by her side her her her.
Hehe… Hmm…”
There are hardly any tears left now. Diana took her steps, sobbing.
The sobs made her eerie mood even more eerie, but Diana didn’t realize it.
She has no mental health left, so she just wanders around aimlessly. She didn’t even have any light, so it was hard to see anything about her.
‘Please someone…Help…’
Did someone hear such earnest prayers? Or is it empty in the monkey’s hands?
-Phew!
Suddenly, one of her hands popped out from under her.
-Wow!
He grabbed Diana’s delicate ankles
“aaah!!”
Diana let out a terrifying scream. Her voice was already resting, but her voice was still there.
She was horrified to see her hands sticking out of the ground like they were undead. She is struggling to escape somehow.
-Suuuch
Soon, the owner of her hand began to rise little by little from the ground. Diana didn’t even know that and was busy struggling.
The sight of her scratching the ground, not caring even if her fingernails, which she managed to manage to the best of her ability, were broken. It was truly pathetic.
It was literally a struggle to survive. A wild man completely ruined a member of the royal family.
“Over there.”
“Please save me! Please save me! Anyone please!”
“There you are. It’s soothing.”
However, the owner who actually held Diana’s ankle was very carefree. Instead, she told him to calm down.
Eventually, Diana, having exhausted all her strength to struggle, grabbed her head and slammed her face into the ground.
Her body shaking was a very frightened reaction. The female student said, “No, it’s undead.”
“Are you okay?”
“Ugh… Ugh…”
“I’m sorry. Maybe I’m a teaching assistant.”
“Hmm… Huh?”
A woman’s voice penetrated Diana’s ears one after another. At that voice, Diana turned her head with a trembling expression.
As soon as she turns her head, what catches her eye her is her her blue hair her her her. Hair that is clearly visible even in the dark forest.
She also gives the impression that even though she seems a bit dim-witted, she is full of confidence. It’s a face I know.
“I’m sorry. I thought you were a teaching assistant.”
“Ugh…”
The identity of the person who sheepishly scratched her head and apologized was Raina. She was the first female student to deal with Sivar.
Diana looked at her blankly. I couldn’t understand why it was in the ground.
I didn’t even care about her almost absurd command of the language. She doesn’t even have the energy to care now.
-Shhh…
“Huh? What kind of smell is this…”
“··· ···”
“··· ···”
More than anything, I had to pay more attention to other things. Raina couldn’t help but pause while speaking.
Even though she couldn’t even see an inch in front of her, she could clearly see Diana’s expression of her.
Instead of feeling relaxed, my face turned red with shame.
Tears formed at the corners of her eyes.
“······Ugh.”
“Um…”
“Ughhh!”
“Ooh, don’t cry. Don’t cry.”
Diana’s loud waves echoed throughout the forest.
*****
When other students got caught up in Shivar’s pranks, Raina didn’t get involved at all.
On the contrary, she was able to focus more on the practice itself. Thanks to her quick judgment of the situation, she quickly realized Sivar’s intentions.
‘It’s because I’m out of my mind and go camping.’
The twin siblings and the students who follow them are the problem. All Sibar has to do is to be faithful to practice.
Right time and right situation. These two conditions met so well that it was sublimated into a terrifying production.
From Raina’s perspective, all she could feel was something close to the feeling that something was coming. So she was able to focus more on practice.
“Let’s wash here. Do you have clothes?”
“······I’ll just use magic to stop you.”
“Okay.”
Hiding in the ground was also to escape from the trainers’ pursuit.
Because there was no need for her to fight at all. The ultimate goal of this exercise is to play tag.
As long as you don’t get caught by the tagger, it’s over. When Raina realized this, she was hiding in the ground.
“······Frozen Princess.”
“Yes?”
“What I’m saying about this is…”
“Don’t worry. I won’t say anything.”
“··· ···”
Diana hung her head down, probably out of shame, and said nothing. The shameful expression on her face is a bonus.
The place they arrived at after a slight accident(?) Was a lake. The forest designated as a training ground originally had a lake.
Because it is a lake that can be used for drinking water, quite a lot of students visit this place. Moreover, it is very spacious.
“··· ···”
“··· ···”
After cleaning up the unexpected accident and drying the clothes neatly with drying magic, a heavy silence came.
Diana had a dark history that she would never be able to wash away, and Raina somehow became a living witness.
It’s a shame she was a woman. If Reina had been a man, Diana would have bitten her tongue and committed suicide.
It was a major incident that seriously damaged the image of the princess and shattered it. Just thinking about it brought tears to my eyes.
“Are you calm?”
“·······Yes.”
“What happened?”
The grammar is still crappy. Diana looked at Rayna with a subtle expression.
Her entire body is covered in dirt because she was hiding in the ground just moments ago. Still, I just wash her face and that’s it.
This is a behavior that can only occur if you are familiar with this situation. Unlike the male student before, I am calm and relaxed.
“······A lot has happened.”
“Please explain.”
“So…”
Unlike the male student earlier, is it because I have a reliable person by my side? Diana explained the situation in a calmer voice than before.
Although it was difficult for Rayna to speak, she had no trouble listening, so she understood everything Diana said.
The more she listened, the more strange Raina’s expression became. As soon as she heard it, it felt like she was being followed by some kind of killer.
As soon as she finally heard her story about meeting Kara, Raina couldn’t help but laugh.
“Phew! Is this really true?”
“It’s no laughing matter! That wild man…!”
“Don’t worry, the joke is real.”
I’m sure it’s a joke. Raina believed so.
At least the Sivar she knows is not someone who would carelessly harm others.
It was a bit strange that he harmed the crown prince, Karas, but everything will be explained the next day.
“What a joke! I saw it with my own eyes! Everything that killer did!”
“Yes. I know.”
“If you really don’t believe me…!”
“You lived, sir.”
Putting everything else aside, you are alive. Raina said so.
Diana interpreted the words for a moment, but then seemed to give up and let out a long breath.
She looks aggrieved.
‘It’s definitely a joke.’
It’s definitely a joke. Otherwise, there would be no way for Diana to be alive and well.
Shivar is very strong. She’s not the type of person to go around because she can’t handle Diana.
Moreover, according to Diana, she also has a location tracker.
Professors will not just sit by and watch this, but if they see that the practice is progressing smoothly, they will probably turn a blind eye to everything.
‘It doesn’t make sense to be sleeping when all the royal family members of the empire are gathered together.’
If that’s really the case, it goes far beyond the level of negligence. Instead of having your job cut off, your head would have been cut off.
How will Diana react when everything is explained? I’m a bit curious about this.
‘By the way…’
Reina looked around her. She said she has a location tracker, so she will follow shortly.
It didn’t change that she had to escape somehow. She needs to hold on until the morning sun rises.
‘That will do.’
Then something caught Rayna’s eye: she was a small, small boat. She is the one and only boat.
If she rides this and she floats on the lake, she might be able to hold on. The depth of the lake is quite deep.
‘She never said to be a good swimmer.’
She probably had her boat to take advantage of this in the first place. Reina floated her boat on the lake.
Diana was puzzled by her completely incomprehensible behavior, but as soon as she launched the boat onto the lake, she noticed.
“Get in.”
“Now? In this situation?”
“Run away.”
Rayna said to Diana who she looked dumbfounded. Diana’s expression softened at her words telling her to run away.
‘No matter what I say, they won’t listen anyway.’
Raina’s personality is just passionate, but she’s not blind. So she immediately recognized Diana’s distrust of her.
Just adapt to the situation and she will listen obediently. The judgment of the situation was very quick.
Diana looked back and forth between her boat and Rayna and spoke in a voice of disbelief.
“Is this really okay? Just a small boat?”
“Then don’t ride.”
“Oh, I didn’t say I wouldn’t ride it! It’s just suspicion! Suspicion!”
To be simple. Reina chuckled to herself.
She was the princess’s grace and beauty, and when her true nature was revealed, she was nothing more than an ordinary woman.
It would have been okay if I showed that side of me on a regular basis. It was a little disappointing, but it was someone else’s business so I moved on.
“Do you know how to row?”
“Yes.”
“But where is the oar…”
“This.”
Raina proudly showed off the battle ax she would use instead of a paddle. There was no need to explain Diana’s expression when she saw that.
The area is large enough to drive a small boat, but the weight is different. Diana’s reaction is normal.
However, her Reina her power her she is much stronger than that of most male students. This was a piece of cake for her.
-Okay. Okay.
Using the Battle Ax as a substitute for an oar, the boat began heading to the middle of the lake.
She had an eerie atmosphere because even the moon was covered by clouds, but it didn’t matter.
I can just hang on here anyway. When Raina arrived in the middle of the lake, she collected the battle x.
“Tsk. Let’s rest now.”
“Is it safe?”
“For now.”
“··· ···”
Diana’s eyes were still filled with disbelief. Of course, Raina didn’t mind at all.
As time passed, only the sound of her insects was filled.
“··· ···”
“··· ···”
There were no words exchanged between the two. There is only heavy silence.
Neither of them had a topic worth discussing, and Diana was the first to not open her mouth.
Normally, Raina would be the first to open her mouth, but she began to refrain due to her lack of knowledge of the common language.
“······Over there.”
“Huh?”
“Excuse me… But you’re not good at speaking the common language, right?”
“Yes. I can’t.”
“Isn’t there a problem with the language?”
“What, you pee-pee princess. Are you revealing all the rumors?”
Raina, who must have been a little upset, fired off a black weapon. But she is not the common language, but the language of Frozen.
Naturally, there was no way Diana could understand her. When Raina saw that, she looked relieved.
“Then… “
It was just as Diana was about to say something.
-Splash!
I heard the sound of something falling into the lake. Since it was not a small sound, both people could hear it clearly.
Before long, ripples started flowing from the right. It is certain that something entered the lake.
“W-what is it? What did you just hear…”
“··· ···”
Instead of answering, Raina gently held the Battle She then looked to where the ripples began.
It’s such a dark place that it’s hard to even see the human figures. Especially since it’s in the water.
However, there is something called presence in each living thing. Reina felt something huge approaching.
“There, there, there!”
“I see it too.”
Soon they were both able to see clearly. A large, pitch-black shadow.
The shadow wandered near the boat and went under. At the same time, Raina missed the shadow.
‘Where is it? It’s definitely not a fish…’
Before Raina’s thoughts could even end.
-Fuaaak!
Something big suddenly shot up from within the lake. This happens to be the direction Diana is looking.
And Diana could see. Red eyes that glow ominously even in the dark of night.
“Kyaaa!”
One woman screamed, almost fainting.
“Wow!”
-Bwak!
One of them was so shocked that her fist naturally went out.
It was an automatic, reflexive fist, but did it hit her chin properly?
-Plop!
The person who had soared as high as possible, Sibar, went back into the lake due to the shock.
