The knights ran towards me as if they saw something miracle. I started to analyze my surroundings and noticed how everything was burned.
Even if I panicked right now, it wouldn't help me on handling the situation. I check the knight's uniform and my hands flinched as soon as I noticed it's emblem. Altalune.
I rushed over to the side where a huge hole was present due to the fire and saw a village. In a distance, I can barely see the Kingdom but it was enough for me to convinced myself that I am inside the movie.
"Was this house on fire just a while ago?" I asked calmly. To be honest, in the back of my mind, I still can't believe I got inside the movie but I'm the type of person who believes in science. Thus, I believed that at some point, some elements and components are met that allowed me to get inside the movie.
"That's right." He simply said and observed my body as if he was expecting me to have injuries. "Even if the survival rate is below ten percent, it's a miracle you've survived without any injuries." He said after observing my body.
"Miracle? Maybe I'm a beast!" I grinned planning to scare him away but failed. Their eyes sparkled at my answer thinking how cute my childish response is and that is what I was going for.
"I guess we have another candidate." One of the knights said.
"Let's find her an orphanage first." The first knight who spoke to me said and the others agreed. I looked at them with a wrinkled face showing how I hate being treated like a kid. I mean, I may have a body of a kid but I have a mentality of a 23-year-old adolescent. Well, I was the one who started this first.
I decided to go along with the flow and trusted the knights since Altalune is known for its loyalty, secrecy, and bravery. Two knights escorted me as we go outside. They then asked me to wait underneath the old oak tree since they're still investigating the burnt house.
I agreed and waited. As I wait, I was still shocked by the unexpected turn of events. I walked in circle until a question popped into my mind as soon as I saw the knights coming in my direction.
"Excuse me, may I asked what date today is?" I asked the knight who spoke to me first a while ago.
"It's the 13th Moon of the month." He smiled.
"And the year?" I asked politely.
"342nd year of the Sun." He looked confused. "This may be a sensitive question but perhaps... are you being abused by the late owners?"
I blinked a few times. I was dumbfounded and did not expect that. I thought once again if I looked like a traumatized child but did not even see myself as one. Perhaps it is due to my appearance.
"To be honest, I don't remember. I might've lost my memories when the disaster happened. I found myself waking up on the floor in the room." I scratched my cheek lightly and acted cute even though I'm cringing inside.
The knights blushed thinking I'm cute while others touched their chest trying to surpass their smile.
If I am currently in the year 342 then it means that the movie is just starting. Based on my appearance, I calculated that I am the same age as the Archduke, 6 years old.
"I can't believe I just estimated my age just by the sight of my feet, hands, and how high I view the world." I mumbled.
"Pardon?" The knight apologizes for not hearing me clearly.
"Nothing." I smiled as they helped me get on a horse as the knight did also.
The knights were gentle with me almost as if one rough touch and I'll be hurt. They reassured me that this orphanage is my safe place. Just one look at the orphanage, I smelled something fishy but it seems the knights were busy thinking about the investigation.
