You know there's a problem when things look... normal.
It was just a day from the planning of how the reincarnated ones could live. So, obviously, something would've changed, right? So many people were reincarnated and yet...
Yet no one thought that Alyssa and Alon clinging together, spending father-daughter time and playing together was out of the ordinary.
Yet no one thought Erica and her orphanage being funded by Alon was weird.
Yet no one thought Alyssa becoming a Prophet (instead of the 'Black Fox') was unexpected.
In every Isekai Harold has read, something or the other deviated from the original novel. Like, the main characters warmed up to each other (like how Alyssa and Alon were doing now), or a character befriended the main character instead of the antagonist (Yuki)... or, just anything!
Each and every cliché – you name it, and Harold and co. would have tried it.
This novel's plot wasn't changing. Instead, their memories were... fading.
And so, reincarnated Alyssa and Alon (Harold) took on sword-fighting – a necessary skill that was required to survive in the medieval times. A Duke had so many enemies, not to mention how much the Ren Dukedom held – even the Emperor was in a certain degree of control.
But the novel won't let them realize that Alyssa's body was extremely compactible with the sword... and that the Emperor despised Alon.
And, this way, Alyssa being the 'Black Fox' was inevitable, just as how Erica's arrival to High Society catching the attention of the Emperor – a potential candidate to shake Alon from the roots – was unavoidable.
How scary.
And just like that, thirteen years passed – progressing from the backstories to the main plot.
