Run Maelle!

Prologue

The place was full of flowers. The field of flowers spread out so wide that the end could not be seen was like a masterpiece painted by the artist with all his might. And in the midst of such a scene, a girl is sitting in a bright dress.

There's a girl with honey-like blonde curls at the waist. Her eyes were also golden. Maelle approached the girl who was smiling innocently among her blooming flowers and spoke to her.

"Princess."

Knowing that someone called, the girl turned her head. Her long hair fluttered as she nodded. As she looked at the angelic face, Maelle smiled softly.

"What are you doing here?"

"Maelle."

"Yes?"

"What is your dream?"

Maelle tilted her head. Why are you asking that all of a sudden?

It was strange, but the question of the royal family must be answered first, no matter what the content is. Maelle responded softly.

"I just dream of living happily with the people I love. Princess?"

"I destroying my country."

Maelle thought for a moment that she had heard it wrong. What?

"Yes? Princess, what just...."

"I'm a state-of-the-art."

The girl added a word with a calm face. He was a brazen self-praise, but Maelle was not surprised about her. Because it wasn't already a day or two for her girl to praise her own face with her own mouth. If you are surprised, you should be surprised that she used the difficult word of Gyeongguksaeksaek* in an unfavorable way.

* Gyeongguksaeksaek: An old-fashioned idiom that refers to a thrifty beauty who could jeopardize the fate of the country.

Maelle was completely bewildered, and at first she affirmed it. Anyway, it was true that the girl was that pretty.

"Yes, that's right. That's right."

"Then the country should lean?"

"...Yes?"

"The country must be destroyed because of me. 'Cause I'm a state-of-the-art right? So my dream is to destroy the country."

"Oh, princess? what the hell...."

"It's not like this, but I have to go and destroy the country. Fufufu~"

"Wait! Princess? Princess!"

Maelle jumped up from her seat immediately, but could not catch the person who had vanished like the wind. Maelle was just stunned and maintained a standing posture. Just what? in vain? Are you hallucinating in vain?

Huh, as the days get warmer, you see all sorts of weird and nonsense.

At that moment, the scene suddenly changed.

-----------------------------

"Aaaah!"

People died

The houses were set on fire. Screams resounded from all directions to the point of pain in the ears. The sound of horseshoes, the horrific sound of cutting living creatures with blades, mixed in random places and scattered in the air.

Among the scorching smoke and flames, armed soldiers ran wildly on their horses.

A desperate scream, as if poking his head out. Howl. Clamor.

People pour blood and fall like pieces of wood.

"Sa...ve..."

The heat of the flames touched my skin amidst the unrealistic Abyss. Hot. Maelle screamed like it was torn.

"Ugh!"

Maelle jumped up. A few strands of dark brown hair were clinging to his pale, bloodless face from cold sweat.

In that state, she did nothing for a moment, only holding her breath. She was only waking up from sleep, and her heart was pounding as if she had been sprinting. It was only a little while later that she was completely awake.

"It's a dream......"

Dream.

Maelle murmured while looking down at her fingertips. The tips of her fingers trembled slightly as if there was a lingering aftertaste on her. The scream is as vivid as tinnitus, and the heat is as vivid as if it were real.

Unknowingly, Maelle reached out and grabbed the first thing she touched. Soft duvet. This was not a flower garden or a street where war broke out. It's just an aristocratic girl's bedroom with a large bed and luxurious duvets made of soft fabric.

Maelle shook her head as if trying to shake off the remaining sense of the dream.

let's forget it's a bad dream. It's a bad dream that doesn't even need to think about its meaning. It's just that I had a brief nightmare with bad luck, and it's just a worthless phenomenon with no further meaning.

And a few hours later, as soon as the day dawned, Maelle kicked out the blanket and ran.
