Fake Cinderella

19 Escape

"... Earlier, Elaine said you were being targeted."

"Yes."

"How did you know it was you?

Being Princess Wang, I am always in a position to be targeted. But what made you think you were the cause?

"... a letter of intimidation came to my husband."

"A letter of intimidation, is it?

"Of course my husband didn't show it to me, and he gave the house a saying. But you know there's something wrong with that, right? They say I'm often blunt, and they say I can't read the air, but sometimes I know."

"Understanding"

"Yes.... that my husband is hiding something to accompany me for fifty years. Something about it involves me... I knew it right away, and it's about me. Every time I went out, I knew something was wrong and that they were after me more and more."

Master Elaine says it like it's nothing, but I feel like it's quite a big deal.

"What was decisive was that we found a copy of the blackmail letter"

"Copy, is it?

"Yes, there was exactly a rewritten copy left in the dustbin in the study"

(... I don't know if I should blame the Duke for being a detour or praise Lord Elaine I found)

"So, I found out that my husband was being blackmailed about me."

"... when it comes to intimidation, it's something that has a purpose, but how are you intimidated by what?

It said, "Someone with a grudge against me will kill me."

"... resentment"

"Yes.... I'm not willing to make excuses about that. I think it's something I should bear."

Lady Elaine says clearly.

"But I am very sorry to have involved Her Royal Highness."

"It's okay now."

(In the meantime, I don't think there's any danger when you go underground...)

The problem is, I don't know where this place is.

And I don't know where I'm going to keep walking.

(Perfect, you're lost)

"I am sorry for all this noise in the royal palace and for my husband"

"I don't think you have to worry about that."

"Huh?"

"I'm a couple, so I think I'm a lotus student. This kind of thing."

"Shit, is that it?

Master Elaine looks at me with a sober look.

"Yes.... Your Highness and whatnot, but how can you be so secretive? It's about me, and you hide it right away."

"... well"

Master Elaine can smile at my stupidity.

"I was a little relieved to find out that every husband was something similar."

"Yeah. Yeah, right. You're not just my husband."

"Yes."

I snort out clearly.

Then, me and Lady Elaine told each other to compete on how secretive each other's husbands were.

There is actually an age difference of fifty years between us, but I didn't feel that at all.

Continuing our prolonged walk down the stone corridor, and in front of the door we reached, Lady Elaine and I looked at each other.

Swallow the rice noodles.

We knew that the board was a door, and we knew that I could open that door.

"Let's go."

"Yes."

We nod at each other with a slightly nervous face.

And I touch that door.

From the slowly sliding open door, a fresh breeze blew in.

Take one, two steps and a foot.

And ---.

"Wow..."

"Well......"

We swallowed our breath at the sight that spread in front of us.

"Oh my..."

How beautiful......

Lady Elaine lost her words. She's just in love.

"That's amazing"

On one side, it was flooded with light.

But when my eyes get used to it, I find that there are a lot of people in the light.

"... what the hell is this place"

It must have been the first sight to see for Master Elaine. Makes me look a little anxious.

"Probably the lower town of Wangdu. The only thing I've been to is the Utrian district, but it's very similar."

Probably somewhere near that in Utria. Because the streets are like that.

"Lower town......"

It was an unknown world for us.
