Chapter 447 Onward To the Capital Once Again
Just like in my previous life, my birthday came and went with me having my coming of age early. And currently, I am walking around Cyrilia village with two people. One was a cute fox girl who was hugging my right arm, and the other was the princess of the kingdom hugging my left arm.
"I really like it here." Adel looked around at the farming village with soft eyes. She really did seem relaxed just being here. "I think I can understand why you are so great, Faith."
"I am not that great, Adel. I am a person who is selfish and greedy for the things that I want." This was very true. I mean, I am, after all, a person who went back in time multiple times just to save the person I loved. I interlocked my fingers with Adel's and Sophies. "I would destroy the world itself. If it meant protecting the two of you."
"No destroying the world!" Adel pursed her lips as she stopped and looked up at me. "You can not use innocent lives to save me."
"It depends on what happens," I said softly. I could not promise that I would not destroy the world. I could not promise this at all.
"Humph! Just don't do it." Adel leaned into me. Sophie was looking over at us with a smile on her lips. Adel was still probably oblivious to her feelings for me. But I could tell that she was already in love with me. Otherwise, she would not be holding my hands and leaning against me as she was.
"Yes, yes… I will do as my Adel says." I replied while planting a kiss on her head. This caused her to blush and giggle as she nuzzled into me more. The people in the village all looked at us and whispered. But they were not saying anything mean. Just saying how cute the three of us looked. Or how close we all were.
We walked the entirety of the village before returning back to my house. I was now currently in my room with both girls lying on my bed reading a book on magic that I have read many, many times already. "Faith, why are you reading that all over again?"
"Because I always find details that I miss. Unlike just glossing over it to find what I need, reading through it will sometimes prove very resourceful if I pick up something that I missed." I replied as I rolled over.
"I see… I guess I should read more then." Sophie went to the bookshelf and began shuffling through it while I could see Adel trying to sneak up on me out of the corner of my eye. I pretended not to notice as she launched herself on top of me and tried to tickle me.
"You know Adel…. You can't tickle me like that, but I can tickle you!" I dropped my book and began my attack. Adel was already shouting for mercy as I wiggled my fingers about on her sides.
We spent our days like this, just enjoying every day until it was finally time to leave. We were now heading to the capital. And this time, I made sure everything that could cause my mother to begin her regression was taken care of. Even the area where the dungeon would appear was sealed off, so no one could ever enter it until I allowed for it.
I did plan to go there. After all, it was a place with technology that could help the kingdom. But that was something I would worry about at a later time. If the dungeons did suddenly appear here again.
I could have done something that would make them not appear but just in case, I was already ready. There was a lot that I still did not understand. About the realm, Atollie came from. The dungeons themselves and the parasitic race that had tried to cause chaos all over the continent. I wanted to try to protect everything without actually getting too involved. After all this time, I really wanted to spend my time exploring this world with these two girls at my side, along with Grace and Atollie.
But our first stop this time around would be to visit the spirits. I wanted to see if any of the spirits would take a liking to Adel. It might come in handy down the road. It could also be one of the ways to avoid the previous timeline.
As long as both Adel and Sophie were safe, then all was fine. Of course, I still had to tie up a certain count and present it to my fluffy fox girl so she could get her revenge. I sat in the carriage leaning against Adel, who was blabbing away about this and that. She never seemed to run out of things to talk about.
While I might be missing the chance to befriend Gesel and Fred this time around, I can always do that at a later time as well. There were many people I could talk with, but I did not plan to get too close to too many people this time. Of course, if the dungeons do appear this time around, then I would be making sure to deal with the goblin dungeon along with Azengrade in one fell swoop. But I do wonder if the one who is protecting him will do so again this time. I can only wait and see. For now, things were only just starting. A new life and a new adventure were truly about to begin.
At night we did not stop. Atollie kept the carriage going while I laid in bed with the two girls next to me. Adel was sound asleep, half lying on top of me, while Sophie was staring daggers at me. "Yes, Miss Sophie, what is it?"
"Kiss!" Sophie replied while pouting. I turned my head and leaned down, and kissed her lips. "Go to sleep and get some rest. Tomorrow will be another long day in the carriage."
"Alright…." Sophie was reluctant, but I guess she was tired because not even five minutes later, she was sound asleep.
