CH 38

Chapter 38: Heilon (2) (Unedited)



Wherever the words ‘flower viewing’ was attached, there seemed to be a crowd.



‘There are a lot of people.’



I looked out of the carriage window blankly. The roadside was full of people with a lot of petals falling from above. Although I felt like I was looking at the people instead of flowers, it was objectively quite pretty. And because the climate in the capital was so much warmer, unlike Heilon, the clothes here were light. The skirts of the girls holding their lover’s hand fluttered beautifully.



“Where is Miss Fiona’s hometown?”



“It’s the capital.”



Celine widened her eyes as if she were surprised for a moment. “Oh my.. Then it’s not your first time at flower festival.”



The flower festival was one of the representative festivals of the capital. Well, so it was understandable that Celine was a little bit surprised as she brought me out to tour now. However, this made me embarrassed because the capital was my hometown yet I traveled around as a tourist. 



“That’s not true. I only stayed in the capital when I was young, so I don’t remember much.”



I possessed Fiona’s body when Fiona was twelve years old, and I left the capital when I was thirteen. So I stayed in the capital for only about a year. However, in that one year, I was almost confined in the Green Mansion. Therefore, I mentally was more familiar with Heilon. 



“BY the way, are we going into that crowd?”



Celine smiled gently at my question. “No, there are other places where noble people can enjoy flower viewing. We’re on the way there now.”



Well, right.  There was no way nobles would like to be among commoners like that after all.



A couple of minutes after Celine said that the carriage then stopped at a well-maintained park. The fresh grass was spread widely, and the benches with nice designs were scattered here and there. The flower trees were planted in a nice spot and the pale pink petals fluttered in the air. There were also colorful flowers blooming on the circle shape bushes. People here sat on a wide mat on the ground under the sunshade. Most of the people here were ladies from wealthy families who went out to see flowers with maids. Sometimes, I saw lovers holding hands. It was a peaceful sight. 



It would be hard to believe the monsters would come and attack the capital city when they were this harmonious. Such thought was understandable. After all, the noble maidens and their maids sitting here probably had never even seen the shadow of a monster. The places that were attacked by monsters were the outer area. The Heilon territory was a more unusual case because it was adjacent to the mountain range which was the habitat of monsters.

“Young lady, would you like some food?”



I turned my head and saw that Celine and the other maids had laid the mat on the grass and had finished getting everything ready. 



“Huh? No, i’ll eat later.”



“Is that so?”



I laughed softly. “If you are hungry, you can eat first. I’m going to take a look around.”



“Are you going alone?” Celine glanced at the maids behind her.



It looked like she was going to attach the maid on me.



“It’s okay. You don’t need to follow me. I want everyone to have a good time.”



“But…”



I responded by waving my hand lightly. Somehow I felt like I became a real rich lady if there were a maid who tried to catch up with me. 



Then I walked through the park feeling awkward. Certainly, there were fewer people in the park compared to the main road I saw earlier. This was literally just the crowd “having fun”.



I glanced curiously at the girls passing by in groups of three or five. Everyone looked genuinely happy. The oddly peaceful sight that was very opposite of Heilon made me somewhat dazed. 



‘What am I doing?’ 



This was a thought I’ve had from time to time since I came here. I felt like I was a boat floating on a river that flowed aimlessly. When I had free times like this, my mind would always wander around, thinking about the unreality of this world. The world I created and the characters that lived in it, and the events that would go as planned. 



‘Is that a good thing?’



At one time, I trembled at the unbearable cruelty of the world I had created. However, what was different from the reality was that this world would eventually have a happy ending. Even so, when I didn’t see the characters, It did feel like the world in the book. And, even if this was a novel I wrote, I actually touched only a few parts of the whole world directly. Since I only dealt with the events that took place around the people around me, I was only in contact with the major setting of this world and major characters. I think the number of characters from the story that I paid a lot of attention to was roughly ten people. Right, Only ten people in this world. And watching them move sometimes gave me strange feelings. Should I say that if I felt like watching a movie in real-time right in front of my eyes?

“Eeuuhh…” As I was thinking such trivial thoughts, suddenly something happened and gave me a little shock. I bumped into someone.



Normally, I would never have made such a mistake. 



“Hey, are you okay?” The person I bumped into asked in a polite tone.



“I’m fine… Wait, no, I’m sorry.” It was on my side to apologize because I bumped into someone who was standing still. 



When I slightly raised my head while rubbing my forehead, I saw a man with a polite expression. I think he was about in his early to mid-twenties. An exquisite body manner that felt natural with luxurious and well-groomed clothes. This was a person who seemed to have a high status just by looking at it. Also… his face did not look bad. 



I was surprised when my eyes met his. 



Dark red hair and golden eyes. What a Beautiful feature. 



Of course, being surprised did not mean simply admiring someone’s appearance. Even more so, this world was a fictional world. In other words, it meant that It couldn’t be simply said ‘wow so handsome’ when I saw a handsome guy. Because, when creating a story, the first of foremost formula was ‘unusual appearance = lead characters’. And seeing the glow on his face, this author was certain he was one of the main characters.



‘Red hair and golden eyes…’
