Chapter 8.2

The magic train, which went off the rails, seemed to fly in the sky and disappeared in the air. All over the place, there were still glittering trains which could be seen in the sky.

“Oh… he’s gone.”

“It takes five minutes to get to another country with a magic train, right?”

“I’d love to ride it once.”

Even though it’s destination is far away, even overseas, the travel time is only about five minutes. No matter what technology, like the steam locomotive, which was driven by physical force, it could never keep up with the magic train.

Considering its efficiency, the ticket price for the magic train might have be rather cheap.

On the spot where the magic train left off, only passengers and guards in black uniforms remained.

Magical trains were also used by criminals to escape,  because they could travel to foreign countries in a really short time.

Therefore, the palace thoroughly investigates the identities of its the passengers. Those guards in black uniforms must have come for that.

As the passengers moved on the platform one by one to wait for their train, I found a girl who collapsed on a bench.

I think she’s a little younger than me. She had a black hood on cover her face and her hair, but still, she was so beautiful that I looked at her as if I was bewitched.

Despite the white face, the sweat on her face and her trembling pink lips which started to turn a pale purple, she looked beautiful.

That girl is going to be a life. The dark purple dress she was wearing also made it visible at a glance, that she has to be a daughter of a very rich family because of it’s fine glossy fabric.

“Are you alright, Astaire?”

“Drink some water. You will feel better after you drink some cold water.”

The girl was asked about her condition, after she took a few sips of water.

“Do you have a headache?”

“Can you even walk?”

A women around her, probably a maid, weas fanning the girl named Astaire.

The girl seemed to dislike the weak breeze and tried to fan it away with her hand.  Her maid folded her fan, put it away and wiped her sweat on the Lady’s face away with her handkerchief.

‘Is she unable to speak?’

Strangely, the girl did not open her mouth and shook her head or was she ordering only with a gesture? With that alone, the maids around her understood the girl’s intentions.

The girl looked of very high status.

‘Is she a princess?’ There’s no way a person of her status would be here.

The clothes of the people around her also seemed to be of great quality, so she doesn’t seem to belong to an ordinary family. Why didn’t she take the magic train?

At that time, the girl’s purple eyes found me as if she felt my gaze on her. Her eyes, which shine brightly like amethyst, were so beautiful that I kept staring blankly at her, unable to dodge her gaze.

The girl smiled grimly at me while moistrning her lips with her red tongue

Her expression was so beautiful, I couldn’t look away from her.

She was like a fairy who seduced human to come into the water only to kill them there later.

When the girl turned her head towards me, her pink hair fell out of the inside from her black hood.

Then, the girl was so surprised that she lowered her black hood even deeper. I couldn’t even catch a glimpse of her hair anymore.

Only then did we stop looking at each other.

…?

That was weird. Why did I feel a sense of dejavu? I saw the girl’s face for the first time today, but it gave me a weird feeling.

This is the world of a BL manhwa, but everything in front of me and all the people were real and alive.

So at first, I didn’t realize that I had entered the world of “Magic Mirage”, and it was hard to recognize the main characters at a glance.

So I couldn’t even think of who that girl was.

<Magic Mirage> was a BL manhwa in which the lack of female characters was extreme. At most, it was Kayla, who is about to die in the middle, and Marianne Dimitrov, who is Franz’s fiancee and didn’t take part much in the original story.

Marianne and I had already met on vacation last summer, and although she has a pretty fave, she is not the girl here.

Then who is she? Was she another noble girl whom I have encountered in high society? Why does this day feel so ominous?

Strangely, I felt uncomfortable.

It took about 40 minutes for the train I took to arrive at the station near the Kratier Academy. Inside the station, there was a snack bar and a small store selling souvenirs.

If there was a duty-free shop that made high-priced goods like in my previous life, it would be a good business.

There is even a magic train that can move abroad anytime, and I thought it would be good to take advantage of it and do business when there is still a market niche, but I gave up right away because I thought of all I had to do. *1

Now wasn’t the time for useless fantasies.  I just off the contact between Franz and Rittaus with our butler’shelp, but it won’t stay like this for long.

And it is not difficult for Rittaus to take advantage of my absence and meet up with Franz.

Franz’s ownership of Sitzero did not mean that my work was done. I still need a place to hide Franz thoroughly until the day when he will finally becoming the master of [Sitzero]

Where would be a good place to hide him? A place where there is little contact between people would be better. And somewhere where I can communicate with him anytime I want. And a place where there are no guys.

“Would a place be safe where only women are?”

Kwaang!  Chaenggrang!

At the moment when I was about to come up with a wonderful idea, I heard a bursting sound and the sound of a massive rock and metal colliding.
