BELLE'S P.O.V"Do you think this is all right?"I showed him what I was holding. Before he responds, he inspects it for a few moments."Yes, my lady," I said. Okay.""Should I place this somewhere?"He gestures to the bag near the stone, where our carriage is waiting."That's okay, my lady."I gave a nod of approval.“Alright.”I walked to my bag and placed the items in my hand inside.We're presently gathering leaves for which I have no idea what the advantages are. But Hendrick advised me to just go ahead and do it.He stated that he would require this in the event that monsters attacked us. Although that is difficult because this location is well-kept, and monsters rarely visit. Nonetheless, I obey him.We've been choosing those curves for two hours now. It's already early afternoon.And I'm starting to get hungry!I cast a peek at Hendrick. I couldn't believe he was actually accompanying me on my journey.Who would have thought that the person with whom you rarely communicate migh
BELLE'S P.O.VGoodness.I can feel my body shaking just looking at the monster in front of us. Shit, I heard Hendrick cast beside me..“We should look for another direction,” he said to coachman Fernando. While I was still panicking on my spot, I tightened my grip on the rope. “Let's go that way!” Hendrick shouted to the coachman.They change direction to where there are no monsters. But it hasn't been a few minutes when a group of monsters appear in front of us.What should we do? I can now understand the situation. We are surrounded by monsters that we couldn't even realize they are here even before Hendrick and Fernando had a decision. We heard the huge monster roar. I was shocked because it was so loud that it hurt my eardrums.But what shocked me more is how it ran towards our direction.“I will deal with this.” Suddenly, Fernando shouted.“Are you sure, Hendrick?” What is he going to do? Is he going to fight those monsters by himself?“Yes, secure the safety of the lady.
BELLE'S POVI woke up feeling like there's something touching me. It's kind of hard and hairy at the same time. It's ticklish.What's that?Later on, I felt like I was being lifted. I tried to move my body but there's a hard thing around me that keeps me from moving.What's that?I tried to open my eyes to see what's happening. At first, I saw a brown hard wall beside me.Oh, that's why it's hard.I roam my eyes around me. On my left, I can see the outside of the cave. It's raining…But, why do I feel like I'm moving? At that moment, I realized that I was floating, the ground was below me. "Huh?" My eyes widened. "You're awake, my lady."My eyes landed on where the voice came from.Just above my face, there's Hendrick's face. Hendrick?I was confused at the moment but my eyes widened more when I realized where I was.I'm in Hendrick's arms!Goodness!"Pardon my rudeness my lady, but I have to move you because you'll get soaked from the rain."Oh… I nodded my head.I couldn't ans
BELLE'S P.O.V.After we were done eating, we just sat in the cave. There is nothing much to do since we are both waiting for the rain to stop. I am glad that there's a corner in this cave that we can use as our bathroom since we can't go outside because of the rain.It would be embarrassing if there was no place here where we could hide when we need to be or something. "My lady…" I glanced at Hendrick weirdly because the way he called me was kind of slow. "What is it?" I asked."What do you plan to do after getting what you wanted to get in the north?""Hmm…" I looked at him again. He seems really curious about what I will do after getting what I want to do. But right now, I don't really have in mind what I will do next. I don't have any other plans except renovating the mansion and knowing why the original Belle can still occupy this body. Oh right, should I ask about his recommendation of what is the best place to spend my time forever? Since I plan to buy a house in the co
BELLE'S P.O.V. What did he say?"You-what?" Hendrick faced me.“I tied her up, my lady.”“Why did you do that?”“Because she wants to go out but it is still raining outside, and you are weak. I don't want you to get sick after she occupies your body.”“Oh, is that so?”I should thank him, right?I was quite embarrassed by what he said.“Thank you, Hendrick, for thinking of me.”“You don't have to worry about that, my lady.”“Then, may I know what happened after you tied her up?”“She shouted. But it's no big deal.”That's exactly what she would do but my body is hurting so bad.“How long did I remain tied up?”“It's three days, my lady.”“Really? Wow! Thankfully, the original Belle only occupies this body for only three days. But how did she manage to get out of this body? Is there any particular thing that happened that can cause her to get out of this body?”He shook his head.“As far as I know, there isn't any particular thing that happened before you went back to that body.”“Is
BELLE'S P.O.V The man in front of us is pretty handsome and tall, but not as tall as Hendrick. He has a good posture, and he also looks clean. But why is he staring at me like that? Like all of the people around us, we are staring at us, too, especially to me quite awkwardly. I waited for Hendrick's answer about it, but it never came. Instead, he tapped the man's shoulder and pulled me towards him; we headed to the second floor.While we are walking, I can feel the deadly gaze of the people around us.Why didn't he answer them? Won't this create a misunderstanding with them? But first of all, where are we? This place is beautiful; I can't deny it. But this is suspicious. Why am I always meeting strange species of little things since this morning? "Hendrick…"I tried to call him, but he didn't hear me.We went straight to the second floor. It's pretty tiring because the stairs are big and the floors are significant as well. That is why we took some time to go to the second fl
BELLE'S PO.V "Are you ready, my lady?" Hendrick asked me.We are now preparing to go to his friend. "Yes, I am ready. But are we going to ride this horse alone to go there?"Hendrick nodded his head."Yes, my lady, because my friend doesn't like it if you go there with a carriage." "Why? What's the problem with the carriage? And will it be more suspicious if we go there with just a horse? Two of us are going to ride on one horse, and I'm sure they're not used to seeing that. Although this horse is beautiful, is it really okay for us to go there through this?""Don't worry, my lady, it won't be a problem."Although I can't understand his friend, I still ride with him."You should not talk to him about other things, my lady," Hendrick said."Pardon, I couldn't hear it properly because we are in the middle of the road. The horses and carriages around us, and the street is busy with many people in it. It's causing too much hindrance for me to hear."He leaned toward me. I suddenly felt
BELLE'S P.O.V I knew it.I know that he already knows who I am from how he looks and acts. It seems like there's no point in hiding it from him. "Yes, you are right. I am not the real owner of this body."He stands straight like someone ready to fight."You don't have to do that. I am harmless, and I don't want to be here in the first place."He still looked suspiciously at me. "I know that it's not easy to believe someone like me, but what can I do? Look, I didn't purposely lie.""Okay, you can explain from there."I didn't expect to do any good after someone found out who I was. I am just thankful that Alfonso didn't tell Hendrick right away and still asked me to talk alone, which is a good act for me.I started explaining who I am, where I came and how I got here.I didn't leave any details about my life. After all, I already know what will happen in my life because I have read the comic. I will not tell them that this world is inside a comic because I don't know how they will
