I'm in Otome World, Really?

Chapter 13 - The Magic Festival (part 2)

A/N : Long chapter again! And, this is my drawing of Sylven Wiztar! I drew Sylvon Wiztar too but it kinda fail when I drew his eyes, so maybe next time.

'And now, I also lost Kayla... I seem like taking care of a child.' I let out a sigh.

After Kayla managed to see the king come out of his carriage, she suddenly disappeared. So, I quickly searched around that area to find her, but no clue at all. Beside that, I also didn't find Nicho and Kei anywhere.

I ran through the crowd, continued my searching for the three of them. Almost 20 minutes passed, but I hadn't found them at all. If only there was a cellphone in this world...

"Hey."

I suddenly heard a boy's voice. It seemed to call me, so I turned to look at the source of voice. There was a boy, hiding behind the wall with the hood of his cape covering his entire face. Even though he looked younger than me, I couldn't let my guard down since this wasn't my world and I didn't know much about this world.

The boy gestured me to come over there. I doubted him, but still slowly walked toward him. I actually planned to run away from him after I was near him since he looked suspicious. Perhaps because he knew that I didn't plan to get near the boy at all, he pulled my hand to let me hide behind the wall as well. At that time, I almost fell down, but he supported my body with both of his hands.

"Sorry to do this, but I want to ask something."

While saying that, he finally uncovered his hood, letting me see his face. I was shocked at that time.

'How can he...'

Yes, the prince with black hair, Sylven Wiztar, was in front of me. I blinked my eyes a few times, almost couldn't believe what I saw right in front of my eyes.

"I suppose you know me since you are surprised to see me. I am the prince of Wizania, Sylven Wiztar. Nice to meet you." He gave me a gentle smile. When he did that, I didn't know why but it was as though his smile made me feel comfortable and I would say it can make other people smile as well. Somehow... I almost mistook him as an angel who descended from the heaven.

Still with his angelic smile which could take people's heart anytime, he asked me politely, "It's not good not to know a lady's name. What's your name?"

"... Luna."

Perhaps because I was in awe, especially because he was the first person I've ever met in this world who was really polite and kind compared with Nicho and Kei, I only answered his question with that.

He smiled again. "Luna. Actually, what I want to ask is...." He coughed once and averted his eyes from me nervously, perhaps because what he wanted to ask was something embarrassing, and then after a while, he continued his words with hesitation. "Are you from the other world?"

Still admiring how polite and gentle this boy, I answered his question spontaneously.  "Ah, yes." But then, I quickly realized what he said. So, I widened my eyes and almost exclaimed, "Eh, what?!"

I stared at his face for a few seconds in confusion. He just scratched his head, with a tint of red on his cheeks since he probably knew it was a ridiculous question. However, I knew it was true, so I didn't make fun of him. I decided to ask him back. "What made you think that?"

At that moment, some questions immediately popped up in my mind. 'Why did he ask that? How did he know that I am from another world? Did someone tell him that? But for what reason? I just know Nicho and O.W.H and some of other high-ranked wizards who know about me coming from another world... But, it's impossible for them to tell him that I am from another world.' I was in silence, thinking until I found an answer of my own questions in my mind. 'That's right. He knows because he is the prince of this country. As a royalty, he must know that. The king must know that as well.'
