Falling into another world was a mistake

The palace

A/N: If you have already read this chapter I had mistakenly wrote the wrong names for the Matriarch and Seraph. So there is no need to reread this chapter.

(Y/N POV)

I looked around the carriage that had been set up for Vi and I. It was an elaborate dark stained wood  and roomy enough to seat the both of across from each other and a small coffee table between the two of us. I looked down to the new suit that I was no wearing. It was strange I've been here for two weeks and now I'm the servant of the 2nd princess of the nation. What would my family say. God it's been 2 weeks and I haven't even thought about my family, was I dead or just missing back home? I can't imagine how my parents or siblings are taking that. This would be the first time I had a real retrospective of my current situation, I was always worried or focused on other things.

I'm probably declared missing and a cold case back home, I watch a poor guy get cut clean in half, and now I am working for this worlds country that enslaves other species for various reasons. Despite having magic and being safe from slavery there really isn't that much to be positive about.

Almost like she could detect my souring mood Vi had attempted to distract me with some questions.

Vi: Y/N are you doing ok, you look really upset?

Y/N: Uh yeah Vi I'm doing alright.

Vi: You shouldn't lie to your employer or a member of royalty.

My back straightened in fear of how she was gonna follow up that sentence, but my worries were pointless as I looked at her with a smile and sticking her tongue out at me.

Y/N: That's an improper face for a lady of your stature.

Vi: Way to take the fun out of it. I am serious though you can speak to me if anything's wrong, you aren't a slave.

Y/N: I never really thought about what I had left behind until now. I was always busy or working to something, but now we just wait until we reach the palace. Made me think about home, friends and family. Did I just go missing? Did I die back home? How is everyone taking this.

I looked at Vi she furrowed her brows looking to either empathize with my current situation or theorizing what could be happening.

Vi: Which would you prefer to be the case of you don't mind me asking?

Y/N: For their sakes I hope they have a body so there isn't any hope that I may turn up later. For my sake I hope it's missing.

Vi: Why are they different?

Y/N: The thought that something that isn't me is being buried extremely bothers me. It feels like a lie or even worse I lost a part of myself when I fell through the portal.

Vi: Oh... I know how about we do some magic lessons on our way to the palace.

I really appreciated the topic change for a few reasons. It not only got rid of my lingering thoughts of home, it was a magic lesson nothing better than that, and I lied to Vi. I want to learn enough magic to get back home, I know she won't treat me like a slave but I'm nothing more than a glorified servant, with a couple extra privileges and less personal freedom infringements.

(VI's POV)

We spent the last few hours practicing magic and looking out at the peaceful country side. He took me by surprise by how eager he was to learn magic. Magic isn't necessarily looked down on in Rocheria but there is certainly an emphasis put on physical prowess then intellectual or magical. It's quite refreshing actually meeting someone with as much interest as me in magic. Currently I was having him practice moving magic throughout his body so that he can get a better grasp on controlling it, since he can't cast without assistance. I looked at the small figure he made in the cell, a stone person holding up some fire stick with a crown on.
