────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────Chapter 2 – I Became The Youngest Princess Of Asuramasura (1)

There was a story in the beginning.

From the beginning of the story, I remembered my role. I’m unsure whether my eyes were closed or open, but a feast of white light poured into my retinas.

‘This must be salvation.’

It was the only thing I could think of.

***

I often whined during the night. But I didn’t wake up or truly cry. It was because every night, without fail, I dreamed the same story repeatedly.

‘Are you all right, Lady?’

‘Do you think I’m lonely?’

‘Don’t talk to me as if you know me.’

‘The young lady’s mother’s name… what is it again?’

‘No..! Calm down, Millie!’

As if I could forget any part of it.

And so, as I grew and my senses had gradually begun to develop enough to accept the adult’s reasoning, I began to understand what kind of situation I was in.

“It is a great blessing for Asuramasura.”

…what a weird country name.

“Your Majesty Optimus III is so virtuous…”

The name sounded like the giant robot and made me think of the daily necessities of modern people.

And so, stories that take place in Asuramasura under Optimus III continued to play in my chaotic night.

Yeah, this situation was really familiar to N-year-old Romance-Fantasy novel readers.

The name of the country and the name of the Emperor I’ve heard of, and even the fact that I, a newborn, know of him…

So, I was possessed by the book I had read. Is it more accurate to say that I’ve transmigrated?

My last memory of my previous life…

I was walking on the Mapo Bridge.

The phrases ‘Think of the good memories’ and ‘You must be having a hard time’ caught my attention, but the reason for the bridge’s fame had nothing to do with me being there.

It was a bad day, and I was on my way home after drinking beer and soju by the Han River Park.

My face must have been red from alcohol. I caught a breeze of air from the river andpicked up my phone and dialed the top caller on the call list. It was something I did once or twice in the evening for several days, and a few times at the riverside today.

[♡My love♡] ↗(13)

– Rrrrrrr…

Thoughts clouded my mind at that moment, as I listened to the dial tone that I had heard dozens of times for the past several days.

Half of me hoped that he would pick up, at the same time, half of me hoped it wouldn’t connect again.

If he answered, I wouldn’t know what to say or what I wanted to hear. Because I wasn’t prepared for anything at all.

– Cannot connect to the voicemail…

The automatic response message I had heard countless times today alone was clearly stuck in my brain even with the noise of cars passing by.

‘I knew it…’

I stood still holding my phone.

A goodbye again.

Although I did my best in a relationship, it always ended the way I didn’t want.

Sound of cars passing by deafened me.

I don’t want to be alone today. Shall I go home?

“Your brother’s examination is just around the corner. What’s the rush?”

“You’re going to be bloated if you eat chicken!”

“Spending the money on useless things rather than using it for your younger brother’s medicine. How did I give birth to such a fool…”

…No. Then maybe a friend to call at this hour…

“Have you seen your ex-boyfriend? Did you say you transferred? It was worth the transfer. Much more you…”

“Don’t you feel pressured because you’re doing a good job? Usually, men ran away when you chase them.”

The faces of family, friends, and acquaintances played through my mind, but the ambitious words I heard one day jolted at me.

“If we were in a novel, even if you act like that, there’s still a destined person for you. I’m jealous…”

Recalling the novel’s story, I lifted my head and sighed as I walked along the riverside.

Suddenly, my vision blurred.

A red streetlight, red rear lights of a car passing on the street, and the skies dyed red with rain clouds…

Then, there was darkness.

That was the last thing I remembered of my past life.

Have I died? Actually, I don’t know.

If I say it like that, can’t I say it’s my past life? Well, I don’t know… What was certain is that the life I have now is my real life.

‘This must be salvation.’

Wasn’t that phrase that remained vaguely in my head, a turning point in my life?

Ahh, I’m sleepy…

‘I think I’ve done everything for today.’

I may have lived for twenty years in the past, but maintaining my consciousness was so limited, it was difficult to recognize my surroundings. Maybe it was because my body had not yet properly developed.

“Look, the baby’s yawning.”“She’s like a baby bird.”

“She’s so lovely.”

Haa, sometimes it’s a bit awkward to hear those compliments.

“The baby is now sleeping.”

“She’s supposed to sleep a lot at this time of her life.”

“You were like that too when you were a baby.”

At that moment, I sensed that my presumed family members were around near the cradle.But, why does my family look at me like that?

‘Is that possible if you’re a baby…’

Losing my senses, I fell asleep again.

How many times did I repeatedly fall asleep and wake up? One day, I was bitten and I was confused whether it was my body or someone else’s.

After a while, the surroundings grew noisy, and I slowly opened and blinked my eyes.

‘Why are there so many people?’

There seemed to be more than ten people gathered in the room where only mother, the nanny, and the maids were usually seen.

“It’s finally been a month since the baby was born.”

My body moved suddenly which had been gently held in the arms of my mother.

This thick embrace… Yes, it’s probably my father.

Blinking, I focused my vision to look at the person who was holding me. I caught sight of a middle-aged man with a kind smile and well-combed silver hair.

‘He is Optimus III…’

I am finally seeing the face of the Emperor, whom I had only known by name. Come to think of it, I think I heard his voice in my sleep.

“Ajooju, look at Daddy, Baby.”

The arms that gently shake me in his arms suddenly stopped. Ugh, it’s out of focus… Is he smiling at me?

“You’re so beautiful I feel like dying… Well, all babies are cute.”

Did the me in my past life also receive those looks when I was a baby? Even if I had, the direct line of the Imperial family and modern citizens are different.

It was not long before he turned around, and the light of the landscape changed.

“I now officially declare that this baby is part of the Asuramasura family.”

Haha, that name is still awkward to me even if I were to hear it again. There were many who commented saying that he wrote anything that he wanted.

“And the baby’s name…”

Gulp, I swallowed in my mind. The names of the direct Imperial family members of Optimus III flashed through my mind.

‘I don’t think I’m the firstborn, so I’m not the Crown Prince, maybe Roselia who will become the commander of the Holy Knights? It was really cool, but I think the knight’s training would be hard. Or is it Rebecca? I said it’s a salvation, so it would make sense to become one who has a tremendous divine power. Seeing that I’m a princess, I must not be Theodore.’

As I contemplated the family tree of the direct line of the Imperial Family.

“The baby’s name shall be Cecilia.”

‘The Fourth Princess, Cecilia!’

Ah, how did I forget about her?

When I woke up, I focused all my attention and looked at the scenery around me. It was only then that I finally could specifically recognize the surroundings I had only sensed as a mass of light and shadow.

A noblewoman was smiling softly in bed, and boys and girls were staring at me with sparkling eyes.

‘But, the voices I hear every day are different. It’s probably because I am the youngest.’

And on the heads of my father and siblings in this life, hair like silver silk, the symbol of the Imperial family, was fluttering.

‘I must probably have a hair color like that too, right?’

So, I Asura… born as the youngest princess, Cecilia!

“Ouch.”

“Oh my, You’re already laughing.”

“The Princess is smart.”

“It is a great blessing for Asuramasura.”

The indescribable happiness seemed to have created something like laughter in the facial muscles of a two-month-old.

How can I not laugh? I was born with a diamond spoon in my mouth!

The world I was born in is in the ‘The Violets of the Duchess Grow With Tears’, short for ‘Deductible Eye’.

It is the world from my favorite novel that’s like guilty pleasure.

‘Deductible Eye’ is a typical Cinderella story of a candy-type female lead, and it was a sensational work at the time of its serialization.

Why is it a guilty pleasure? Because as much as the novel was popular, it has all kinds of crazy content!

The secret birth, opposition to the preliminary market price were basic, and tea showers and pockets of gold coins were not left out.

Furthermore, perhaps to emphasize the male and female lead’s fateful relationship, there was a lot of adversity in their love story.

‘It was a slow burn. Even though the development was frustrating, it was said that even those who couldn’t stand ‘Deductible Eye’, didn’t read just one episode.

How is being transmigrated into this sweet potato field such a happy thing, enough for the facial muscles of a two-month-old baby to move?

Like I said, I was born with a diamond spoon!

The Empire was peaceful, and the Empire’s couple, my parents, created me at an old age because of their conjugal harmony.

My older brothers who were at least 12 years old, grew up unaware of the closeness of friendship, and I, their distant youngest sister, presented no threat.

Besides, unlike my sisters, I don’t think I held an important role.

‘The youngest Princess who does not have any major obligations and only needs to be loved. Sweet, sweet…’

The most important thing, I don’t think I have any part in the original.

「“Your Highness, the youngest Princess is already attending the meeting for political affairs, right? It is said that she is honored that she’ll likely to take on a major responsibility in the near future.”」

Like this, minor characters were mentioned in vague words.

「“Sir must be really close with Her Highness, the 4th princess. Calling her by a nickname…”]

It was more like appearing as a tool to deepen the love of the two by making the female lead jealous.

It only meant one thing if the fact that my part in this sweet potato field is small as a dog.

‘My life has absolutely nothing to do with the flow of the story!’

And so, there was no dead flag for my life, and the narrative that gave trials to the love of the male and female lead would be someone else’s job.

In the original, only the male and female lead rolled around in the sweet potato field, and neither the Imperial Family nor I had any stake in it.

All I needed to do was live happily as the youngest member of the Imperial Family in this peaceful life.

Giggle, it made me laugh.
