Transmigration: Life In A Novel Is Not Simple! (Dropped)

Chapter 2

In this dark void, images flashed before her eyes.

She sat there, staring into a koi pond, lotuses of all colors floating around as the fishes swam about. Staring back at the her was a ungodly beautiful young girl, around the age of six. Yet, with the beautiful, red flower like birthmark on her forehead made her look more mature than her age. The eyes held wisdom and a spark of intelligence.

There was no doubt that once she grew up, her looks would be the downfall of kingdoms.

"Hic, hic, please wake up. Ling'er promises to be good, promises to listen to jiejie. Just please wake up. You promised to play with Ling'er. Daddy and meimei hates Ling'er. But Ling'er doesn't care, Ling'er only likes jiejie."

This voice caused another wave of images.

Two girls sat around the same koi pond. The woman, along with another girl. This girl though had a huge pink birthmark that covered half of her face, and she knew that she(Ling) had always been mocked for her ugly birth.

However, she felt something in my chest, the way the other girl bounced around with a pure smile of her face. The feeling of an older sibling doting on their younger sibling.

"How is she doing?" A rough, husky voice asked.

"She's alive however..." This voice was slightly older.

"What?"

"Her qi center is completely destroyed. She's only eight, meaning that her qi has yet to spread throughout her entire body... she's crippled." The last part was said with great pity.

"What?!" 

"She can no longer cultivate."

Silence followed, allowing me to sink into my thoughts.

Qi? Cultivate? The words made her mind wander towards the novel she had just read before dying.

And the word dying lead to another thought.

Was she dead?

But what about the event that happened before? Where there seemed to be an assassination. 

Maybe she was going insane?

But something in her gut told her that everything was very real.

She may have been sane, but then that means that she was a totally sane person in a completely insane situation. She did not like the sound of that.

That thought didn't make her feel better.

"It's all my fault. She took the arrow that was meant for me. She's still so young, with a future ahead of her... and I basically stole it away."

Again silenced followed, but that familiar voice made me jerk.

Mother...? Two faces popped into her head. Two nearly identical faces. One of her mother, the other of the empress.

So she had saved her? Somehow that thought made her guilt that had weighed onto her back lessen.

"We'll make it up to her. Why don't you go check on Ling'er, she asked us to take care of her."

Then everything turned silent.

Ling'er. From the novel?

Does that mean she transmigrated?

The first image popped into her head. No way. No fricking way.

She is going insane.

There's no way she could be her. But reality slapped her in her face as she browsed through the memories of this body.
