"I want to eat pudding!"

As soon as she woke up, Lilith's words made, Tenna, the maidservant at her side, tilt her head.

"Pudding?"

"Yes, pudding. It looks very delicious! Soft and -- !"

"... Lilith"

"No, it's not like this! More like this and... yes! That's why it's a pudding!"

Lilith tried to explain to Tenna, but the maid didn't understand a word.

When she realized it, she decided to excuse herself quickly.

"Anyway, I'll write it down and make it later."

"Yes, yes. I hope you succeed this time."

"I'm determined to succeed! And it looked so easy~~"

Seeing the confident Lilith, Tenna had her doubts about this new recipe but said nothing.

In this country is illegal any attempt to stop Lillith of writing down what she sees in her dreams.

That is the first thing they have to know when starting to work for the Family Freud.

Only a few knew the reason: The family members, the veteran maids like Tenna, and of course, Lilith.

This kingdom is ruled by the Freud Family, a vast land, from where you can see the Hot Mountains, with the world's highest mountain, Mt. Marun, like the background of the landscape.

It is an idyllic country where agriculture thrives, with cattle farming in the highlands and field farming at the foot of the mountains.

However, it is in a delicate position, being surrounded by powerful countries: In the east, the kingdom of Fontae, which has a long venerable history, in the south, the Independent Commercial Federation of Matinukan, and in the west, the Great Empire Ayrus.

Lilith, the girl who said "I want to eat pudding!" just after waking up, is the third princess of the Amaryllis Kingdom.

The princess, Lilith of Amaryllis, is supposed to be so sick that she rarely can get out of bed.

Therefore, the skin that wasn't exposed to the sunlight for so long, is white like snow, but despite that, her hair color is of a common light brown, her face and nose aren't particularly beautiful neither.

However, Lilith is proud of her green eyes, which are like emeralds.

The story about the Princess' illness is something people came up with when noticed that she rarely appears in public, and eventually everybody started calling her "The beautiful sleeping princess of Amaryllis"

――The story is wrong, but convenient. Lilith simply sleeps well.

Two-thirds of the day she's asleep.

Tenna is one of the persons in charge of looking after her while she's asleep, and after sometime, she also started jokingly calling her "the sleeping princess".

So why does Lilith sleep for so much time?

Only her close family, the King, her mother, the Queen Casablanca, her brother, Prince Spiris, her second brother, Prince Eam, her sister, Daria, and her personal maid, Tenna, know the secret.

By the way, she has another younger brother, Prince Reno, but is only one year old, so he doesn't understand anything of all this familiar mystery.

When Lilith was young, everyone didn't care, just saying, "It's usual for babies to sleep all the day"

But after she turned 3 years old, her parents started to worry, so they called a doctor to check her.

He only said she didn't have any health problem, it was just that she didn't do much exercise, so her body was weak, and at the same time, because of that, her body tends to get tired more easily and to sleep for longer periods of time.

However, shortly after, the young Lilith began to talk about strange things.

At first, no one gave it much importance, children use to dream and tell the dreams to her parents.

Things changed when the Queen discovered that something her daughter told her she had dreamed about, was happening on another country.

And so, other events she dreamed about, started happening after she told her mother about them.

That is when the Queen realized, those weren't simple dreams, she was seeing the future.

"Oh my God!!"

"What happened? What happened, Casablanca?"

"Our-- Our Lilith ..."

"What happened to Lilith !?"

"Lilith is a genius!"

"What?! Ohhh, Is that true!?"

"Yes, no doubt!"

"Well, I'm very proud of you, my dear!"

The Queen told the King, but he first thought of it as something all parents say once or twice about their little kids.

The king and his wife were such a carefree couple, that didn't give it too much merit, however after more events like that, the King decided to put only very trusted people around Lilith.

Lilith's dreams were in truth, very special.

Through her dreams she sees the past, the future, the events happening in other countries, everything like if it were a story being told to a kid...

Not only that but soon after, she started dreaming about other worlds, the knowledge she gained from those dreams was amazing.

At first, they were skeptical, but they had to believe it after seeing with their own eyes that doing what Lilith told them to do, many problems solved all at once.

In short, the King was able to solve the problems of his kingdom using with the knowledge Lilith gained, and that is why now he's called the 'The wisest King in history'

--Although he often says that he isn't a wise man, those around him believe that it's true because not many would believe a young child and the way he handled everything to protect his daughter while implementing all she taught them, is what makes of him a wise man.

In short, his attitude of trying new things without being bound by stereotypes is what makes him a wise man.

Lilith explains it like...

"I'm not dreaming, I'm seeing the reality while I'm sleeping. The past, the present and the future... Also, different worlds events! In otherworldly terms, it's astral projection! That is why it's so tiresome, since I'm not sleeping, when I open my eyes again I feel tired! The so-called non-REM sleep! So I've to sleep twice as much as other people, that is all! Also... Don't ever try to force me to wake up! No matter if I look like having a nightmare, never do that! It happened once, when I was unconscious, someone shook me trying to wake me up, and my body woke up, but my consciousness didn't. And I can't return at will! I really had a hard time when that happened, so please don't do that"

The maid wasn't sure what Lilith was saying, not only her but the family of the princess and everyone else that hears her.

Her family made sure that only a limited number of people were allowed to enter Lilith's bedroom, and to avoid any mistakes, someone who knows her secret have to be at her side while she sleeps during the day.

This was also done during the night, until one day Lilith said.

"Everyone needs to sleep at night. That is the natural rhythm of human life. So, let's not add unnecessary work, like watching over me at night too."
