I woke up in a very uncomfortable bed of hay covered by animal felts. Nonetheless, I was still surprised that I was able to sleep. I was even drooling.
I only woke up when someone let out a horrified scream outside of the tent that I was staying. “THE CHIEF HAS BEEN STABBED!” I heard a guy say and a few footsteps were heard as they used in panic.
I let out an irritated sigh and rolled over to continue to sleep. So the chief has been stabbed. Apply a bandage on it! No need to announce it. This is the very reason why tw*tt*er was invented in my world. To avoid these attention seeking-
“AND THE CHALICE IS MISSING!
I blinked sleepily and turned my gaze to the direction of the voice. It was sti
“Goddess, how can we ever repay you for all the good things that you have done for us?” The chief asked with teary eyes as soon as Ren helped me up on my feet.I glared at the chief and pointed a finger at him. “Do not get stabbed again. That would be the first one because I am not gonna heal you again even if you start croaking right no-” Nate cut me off by coughing into his hands. It was a warning cough.I pulled my lips upward and swiped my tongue over my teeth in annoyance. Suddenly, being a goddess is no longer fun.Even though I still feel sick, I decided to play into character as I made my voice soft and raised my palms in the air. “Mortal, one must not apologize for that. Thank the spirits and not me for they have whispered these commands to me. I simply am a vesse
My gaze was casted onto the ground as I waited for the reply of the others. I think all of us were in shock as we tried to absorb what Custard just revealed to us. I mean, I don’t even know what to feel.“If that’s the case then, Rose, these are your people.” Ren says. “That means that you are not their goddess, but their princess.”I actually wanna correct that and say that I am a queen, but we all know that I am not ready for that responsibility just yet. I already want to quit being their goddess and they expect me to what? Become the queen? No thanks. I’ll just nod and pretend that I haven’t realized it yet.“Uh huh. Wow amazing.” I nodded as my eyes rolled to the side, avoiding their gazes.
Ren wrapped me in a fur blanket as he carried me back to the tribe. The devil’s root paste and a few other books were in the bag that he borrowed from the hut. SInce the dress that I was wearing became loose, Ren made sure to pin and tie the excess fabric of the dress so it wouldn’t fall. It was only a temporary outfit for me until we could find a smaller dress. That or a way to turn me back to normal. Along the way, I could not help but notice that Ren was stealing glances at me with a look as if he was about to cry. I even saw him raising a hand like he was about to pinch my cheek, but I glared at him warningly. Wolf prince? More like the prince of simps. I slapped his hand away for the 4th time as we entered the village. “No!” Stupid werewolf. He’s still trying to pinch my cheek!
“Goddess! You look wonderful!” A few of the tribe ladies fussed as they tailored the dress that I was wearing to fit my size. Now, the dress has a few ruffles at the bottom where they sewed it since I refused to wear a kids clothing just in case I turn back to normal at any moment.Trust me, babysitting the princes when they became kids taught me that it is better to always be prepared. I mean, it was easier for them since they have abs to show off.“The goddess is beautiful when she’s older, but she’s so adorable when she’s a kid!” Another lady fawned as she braided my hair into two. I wasn’t happy about this at all that as soon as they were done, I asked Custard to escort me out of the hut. He was following closely behind me just as I exited the place.
I was pretty shaken up at what I just saw that I was silent for a moment. The goosebumps at the back of my neck and on my arms didn’t go away even as I tried to rub them.Fical has the chalice and we accused the wrong person.“Come out now, little one. I think he’s gone.” I flinched as Ingka started to speak. At first, I thought that he was speaking to someone else, but then I saw through the gaps of where I was hiding that he was looking right at me. I stood up and shamefully looked at the ground. I don’t even know what I was supposed to say to him.I gulped as I slowly lifted my head and found the old man sitting peacefully on the ground with his back pressed against the wall. His hands were tied in front of him. We were separated by a bunch of bamboos that were be
“You guys better not look while I undo the stitches!” I warned them as Ren and Custard raised a blanket over me while I fixed my dress. “That includes you, Ren.”“Me? I was the one who covered you first!”“Oh, right. Thanks.”Of all the times that I have to detransform, it has to be out in public. I was crouching on the ground with the blanket surrounding me when I saw a hint of red hair peaking. I sighed. “Custard.” It was all that I have to say as my familiar raised one of his gigantic paws and slapped it over the perverted vampire’s face. Nate cried out loud as Custard made contact.“GAH! My face!!”Serves him right. I thought
“Hurry! Move!” We were scrambling on our feet in a panic that Nate, Ace, and I decided that it was fun to exit through the same door at the same time.“Admit it. Who gained weight!?” I demanded as I attempted to squeeze myself through the thin space.“YOU!” Both princes yelled at me while Ren was busy pulling at my hands.I let out a gasp at their words and suddenly I was three as Ren successfully freed me from the tight space. I crashed into his chest before I turned around to look at Nate and Ace, who were now fixing themselves. “You guys think I gained weight?”They ignored my question and started to move. I looked at Ren, who was the only prince who was still by my side. “I gained weight?”
‘A royalty!’ A voice laughed inside of my head. It was clearer compared to the other voices streaming in the background.I jolted up immediately as the eeriness of its voice sent shivers all throughout my body. “Oh Gosh!” I yelled, scaring my familiar that was resting it’s chin on my bare stomach. I then looked all around me. I was back in my hut.‘Master!’ My familiar whimpered excitedly and started licking my face while wagging it’s tail at me furiously. He was getting crazy smothering me that Ren had to pull my familiar back just so I can breathe.“You’re alive!” Ren whispered and suddenly engulfed me into an embrace. As soon as we parted,
