Chapter 12

Parsed with an automated reader. The content accuracy is not guranteed.

Alicia was a princess of Heter, an enemy country, who came as the spirit of reconciliation.[1]

She was the first woman to die if the agreement was broken. Even if they looked at her favorably and sent her back, she had nowhere to go, and she was already deported from her home country.

Her choosing to commit suicide may have been the best she could have done as she was pushed to the brink.

That Princess Alicia, who is not his wife, is pretending to be the illegitimate child of the sickly 8th Prince Kion with her young body.

‘Did you mean this when you said I had a lot of work to do?’

He thought it meant tearing down the shabby mansion and fixing it. Because there was enough space for that.

Beldum seemed to know a little now how complacent his thoughts were.

It meant to create the illegitimate status for Kion, the 8th Prince, so that the younger Alicia could live without any difficulties.

He studied to do this, and I feel ashamed and pained that I came all the way here after resigning to do this…….

“Live, live, I see him make his wife his daughter.”

One word that comes to mind once again. ‘Animal Kingdom’[2]

Although it was a status created for her to live, he felt strange.

Naturally, he remembered Alicia, who called Kion dad. It is said that she lost her memory, and it certainly seems to be true.

You can’t call your husband that in your right mind.

He tried to shake off the soaring desire to go back.

I’ve already learned the secrets to keep. I didn’t think he would let me go.

Maybe he’ll find out more secrets in the future.

“Haa….. Was my fate this dirty?”

He grabbed his throbbing head and turned his head to look at the old dirty bed.

Beldum was more troubled by the fact that he had to sleep in that small, smelly bed today than by the problems that disturbed his head.

He was so neat that even among his friends, he could say that he was trembling. With a tearful face, he lifted up the smelly bedding as he imagined and layed down.

He had to take a rest. After coming all the way here, he suddenly learned a lot of secrets, and his body was exhausted in an instant.

First of all, he had to rest well and meet the princess of Edharth who is now the Crown Princess.

No, the little master who’s now an illegitimate child.

Bekdum buried his face in the rotten moldy pillow and turned quickly with an illusion that his skin was about to rot.

“Ah, damn it.”

In his dream that day, Beldum had a nightmare of being endlessly sucked into a black and white pit.

“…for this reason, I will call you Miss Illia until you return to your original form.”

“Yea.”

“Your mother died while giving birth to Miss Illia.”

“Yeah.”

“If anyone asks you about your mother, tell them you don’t know anything. It’s only natural that you don’t know because she died right after you were born.”

“Yeah.”

“We will fill out the relevant documents as soon as they are organized. Do you have any questions?”

I shook my head while listening to Beldum’s calm words quietly.

It has been a week since Beldum came to the mansion.

I don’t know about this world yet, but he seemed quite capable.

He came to me suddenly and heard the story, and calmly explained that from now on, I will become Kion’s illegitimate child, ‘Illia’ until my body returns to its original state.

Beldum had a rather gentle personality, just as his appearance.

“Even if your external status is like this, Miss Illia is the hostess of the mansion, so please feel free to ask me for anything.”

In addition, he said that even if I’m not necessarily the host, I can ask for anything even if I’m the daughter of Gion.

“Yes! I understand!”

Certainly, considering the rank of the mansion, the first place was Kion and the second place was me, Alicia.

Next, ‘Illia,’ an illegitimate child, came in third.

Ironically, the second and third places were the same person, but the fact was firmly fixed that no one should know except Kion and Beldum.

Alicia, the villain of the time, had so many enemies, and she was a princess of an enemy country, and had many restrictions on her movement. So, it was Baltham’s judgment that it was better to let them know that she was alone in her room, pessimistic about her plight, and locked up in her room.

Even in my opinion, it was a situation where the sound of “Ah!” came out automatically, so I applauded him and praised him.

Beldum was competent, and the two maids he hurriedly picked during interviews were fine. Because everyone was kind.

It was good to see new people and it was good to have someone who could have a proper conversation.

I haven’t seen Kion for a day since waking up here.

However, after the Beldum came, there was no shadow to be found like a person who had never existed. After the maids entered the mansion, there was no smell of him, so my lips were sticking out without me knowing.

I tried to wander down the hallway to find him, but I ran into Beldum and was often dragged into the bedroom.

Even if I told him to leave me alone while I was taking a walk, he said, ‘I heard you are not feeling well. You can catch a cold if you feel the cold wind.’ He just made the same annoying reply.

It was the opposite of Kion that drove me into the hallway on a day when I was constantly trying to build up my physical strength.

It was the same today.

I was caught in the hallway and dragged into the bedroom, sat on a pleasant sofa, and listened to all the explanations.

Glance- rolling her eyes, she looked at Turen in the middle of the room. There was no sign of Kion, but his Guardian, Turen, stayed around 24 hours as if he were a shadow.

“How are you, Miss Illia? Aren’t you cold because the house doesn’t have proper heating? The fireplace… oh, I can’t use it right away.”

Baldum’s unexplained sighs and grumblings continued for several days.

She shifted her gaze, which had been secretly glaring at Touren.

“I’m fwine.” (I’m fine)

Blinking my eyes, I said it was okay and reached out and patted his shoulder, which I couldn’t reach. Since I couldn’t reach it, I pretended to be patting.

The maple-like plump hands moved like Pat pat- in the air.

Then, I could see Beldum rolling his fist and tightening his lips.

You must have forgotten everything, I called you old man a week ago. He would often look at my actions like this with his eyes wide open.

Unlike his calm attitude and formal tone, his face was very relaxed.

Yeah, it would be cute. It’ll be cute. It will be so lovely that you can’t breathe and want to bite.

I was surprised every morning when I looked in the mirror.

“Kuhum.”

Beldum turned his head, coughing in vain, as he realized that he had seen me unconsciously.

I’m glad to know that you know the embarrassment.

Kion didn’t react much to seeing me as a young person, but I knew that looking through all the memories of my previous life, this appearance could never be ugly.

I’m cute. Is it just cute? I’m lovely and pretty and cuter than an angel.

Even though Beldum knew I was Alicia, the villain of the time, his face would loosen from time to time, he looked at me as if I’m so cute, he’s gonna die. I wondered what would happen to those who didn’t know.

It was also confirmed that Isha and Mina were chosen as maids two days ago.

I’m so, so, so, so, so much that I’m special! I was a beautiful, lovable, and cute creature.

‘Oh, Hm! I’m embarrassed.’

To Isha and Mina, who did not know my actual past, I was a poor child who lost my mother at the moment of birth, and my father even got married by the order of the Imperial Palace.

The house where I live is also a shabby place known as a haunted house, so it must be hard to believe.

‘Still, Beldum came and I felt so much better.’

It is said that Kion was poor because someone stole the budget that should have been given to the prince in the middle.

Somehow, he said that if he was a prince, he would have a precious status, but his circumstances were very strange.

Maybe that’s why life has become very comfortable overall since Beldum came. To be honest, considering the time when I lived as Kim Jiyoung in my previous life, my current life was even luxurious.

“Ummm”

Come to think of it, life is incomparable.

Although shabby, there is a house that is neither cold nor hot. Even sleeping. I didn’t have any worries about monthly rent, and even if I don’t work, meals come out regularly.

‘This… Isn’t it so much better?!’

Every meal was full of side dishes and there were two people who were taking care of them.

‘Come to think of it, this house…… It was huge.’

My eyes narrowed. A semi-underground room full of mold came to mind.

In comparison, my room now was so large that I could believe it was a playground. Even without furniture, it was spacious.

“Heok!”

Is my life now, the golden spoon[3] I’ve been dreaming of…..?

After becoming the daughter of Kion, have I become the gold spoon I’ve been hoping for?!

Alicia, who is said to have been a princess of the Heter Empire, would be unhappy, but I am not.

When I think of my previous life, I was so lucky that I had to bow down.

Although there was a pitiful real identity that might die if war broke out again, right now I’m the daughter of Kion.

She was able to lead a life that she had longed for.

“Uhuhuhu”

An insidious smile came out of my lips.

She shook her shoulders, covering her mouth with her hands in surprise. Turen’s strange gaze followed, but it was none of my business.

I’m satisfied.

I don’t know how I got into this body, but God may have listened to my wish even for a short time.

I’ve already forgotten the past when I cursed, asking why I came into such a body.

It may not be long, but I will enjoy the life of a golden spoon to the fullest.

“UHAHAHAHA!”

I laid my hand on my waist and laughed loudly.

I’m very proud that my fat belly has healed.

Turen’s gaze as if it were looking at a crazy person was stinging, but I ignored it and enjoyed my current joy.

The eyes of the beast! As if I’d get scared!
