Multiverse of MiChaeng (Oneshots)

Kingdom

Genre: Fantasy

Castle of Atnala

A horse galloping with silver plates worn on its body while wearing a silver helmet, neighing and increasing its speed as it was being ridden by a young girl, a girl wearing no armour but only a sword by her waist, accompanied by three men riding their own horses as well behind her. They seemed a bit stained, looks like they had just come back from their quest, as Chaeyoung was riding her horse while her free hand was holding a big bag holding something mysterious inside.

They arrived at the kingdom, the castle, and rested their horses in the stables. Chaeyoung petted her female horse softly as she planted a small kiss on her forehead before leaving with the bag, her silver blood-stained sword still attached to her waist. Her three men had gone to the armory to have their weapons and outfits repaired by the blacksmith.

She wiped the sweat off her forehead and walked casually with her footsteps audible as they were heard by the maidens and the other servants cleaning the fortress. She stopped in front of a big gate that was guarded by four elite guards. As soon as they recognized Chaeyoung, they lifted their spears and opened the gates for her. Chaeyoung then entered a tremendously big room with many more guards around.

She cleared her throat as she made her way approaching the royal king Romson who was sitting on his throne comfortably as he laid eyes on her. As soon as she reached a safe distance between the king, Chaeyoung kneeled down in front of him as a sign of respect.

"Your majesty, I have returned from my mission, and I have what you asked me to bring here on this very floor." she said while holding the bag that was still unwrapped.

"Open it, please." Romson softly said and moved a little in front to get a better look at it. Chaeyoung nodded and soon she put the bag on the floor, taking out the rope that was binding it, and unwrapped the bag, revealing the head of the orc that had been slaughtering the kingdom's villagers at night. Romson gave her a proud smile and stood up from his seat, approaching the girl as he patted on her shoulder like a proud father. "Well done, Katarina, you have made me proud once again by slaying the very beast that killed my people. We are safe for now." he grinned.

"It's my pleasure and duty, sire." she bowed. "I have sworn to protect and serve this royal bloodline with my own life at cost." she sternly said and stood up. Romson smiled and cleared his throat.

"I know I can count on you, Katarina. I have never regretted choosing you as my best warrior. You truly will be a great leader one day." he added. "Well, I think you'll make an even fine pair with my daughter." he chuckled.

Chaeyoung was walking at the garden in the kingdom, the garden so vast and wide, even bigger than any other houses. She whistled while her hands on her back as she admired the fascinating scenery of the place that never ceased to visually amaze her eyes. She had put her sword back for the blacksmith to modify, and untied her hair that was previously in a ponytail.

While humming to a song, she caught a glimpse of a fairly beautiful young girl sitting on the bench in front of the pond while playing with some rabbits and other mammals and birds. The girl was wearing a white dress with a small tiara on her head with her long hair untied. Her facial features amazed the girl. She looked beautiful indeed.

"That must be the princess." Chaeyoung chuckled and slowly walked to her, trying not to startle the girl, but she failed, as the princess immediately noticed her presence by listening to her footsteps. She looked at her and widened her eyes.

"W-what are you doing here?" she stuttered and looked at her sudden appearance in her garden in disbelief. Chaeyoung chuckled and made a grin.

"I mean no harm." she smiled. "I'm Katarina, or also Son Chaeyoung." she introduced herself.

"I know who you are." the princess furrowed her eyebrows. "You're my father's best warrior in the kingdom. They say you have slain many unstoppable creatures, including the Dragon of Borde." she stated. "Am I not wrong?" the princess smirked.

"Well, you're right, and you must be the king's daughter, the princess, am I not wrong?" she smirked back. The princess only chuckled in amusement and stood up while carrying a fox in her arms, with a chipmunk lying on her bare shoulder comfortably and butterflies flying around her head. Soon the chipmunk and the other animals fled back to their places.

"So is this your way of flirting with other people, Katarina?" she slyly smiled and brushed her hair. Chaeyoung didn't reply and only looked at her, admiring her beauty. "Why so serious, warrior?" she chuckled and gently poked on her forehead, making the younger girl blush at her actions.

"N-nothing. It's just that I expected the princess to be shy and timid, not this brave and open-minded." Chaeyoung clarified and cleared her throat, trying to sound mature.

"You're funny, Son Chaeyoung. Anyway, I should go now. It's nice meeting you. I wish maybe we could meet each other again next time, if you don't mind." she winked.

"Well, if you insist." Chaeyoung kneeled. "Your highness." she smiled. The princess chuckled and started walking back to the castle, but not before looking back at the girl.

"And one last information. I know you're curious about me. My name, is Myoui Mina." the princess smiled before disappearing out of sight as she entered her home. Chaeyoung slowly nodded and smiled without herself realizing.

"We shall meet again, Myoui Mina."
