Chapter 200


입양딸 역할을 지나치게 잘해버렸다 200화

A massive carriage emerged, cutting through the military band’s march.

It was a giant carriage of pure white.

Someone stepped down from it.

This carriage was a special creation of the Master Mage, a priceless treasure that couldn’t even be valued. “Sister…?”

  

I swallowed hard. The military band was accompanied by numerous elves, who were playing their mysterious instrument, the “Marika Flute.” “What kind of money is this… No, this is a money riot?”

I felt like money was exploding with every step the band took. However, the owner of this procession was wealthy enough to take it in stride. It was Hela.

“I came to greet you. Let’s head to my carriage.”

Viola jumped onto the carriage in a daze. Suddenly, a new world unfolded before her. Space expanded, revealing a very spacious and comfortable room.

Indeed, it was a masterpiece of the Master Mage.

“How is it?”

“It feels like I’ve entered a mansion.”

Inside was a bed large enough for two people. Hela lay down on the bed first, stretching her arms wide.

“Come here. I’m sleepy.”

“Huh?”

“I’ll cuddle you.”

“Out of the blue?”

Hela kicked and laughed. “When we slept together as kids, I could fall into a deep sleep.”

It was like that five years ago. Hela always reminisced about that time.

“It felt good being in your arms.”

……” “Now it’s my turn to cuddle you.”

Unlike the grown-up Hela, Viola was still small. Hela tilted her head.

“Were you always this cute?”

There was a slightly different feeling compared to before. The presence felt enormous, but seeing Viola through current eyes made her seem small and young.

Hela tapped the bed while lying down.

“It’s quiet here, and no one will disturb us. Come here. I’ll wake you up when we arrive home.”

Viola, who was already tired from being with Pongpong and Bichen, lay down on the bed. A bed this comfortable inside a carriage!

What a wonderful world.

Hela kicked and laughed again, then patted Viola’s back.

Viola quickly fell asleep.

Hela gazed at the sleeping Viola for a long time.

“I used to be like this.”

When she was with Viola, she could sleep deeply. Now, so much has changed.

She decided to watch over Viola as she slept peacefully.

“I’m your sister.”

The carriage glided along comfortably, like a yacht floating on water. It traveled for a long while.

Viola opened her eyes and spotted Hela, who had been watching her all this time.

“Sister, you didn’t sleep?”

“I just woke up too.”

“What were you doing?”

“I was watching because you’re cute.”

Hela stood up. As many clerics were being trained, miracles happened for Hela as well.

If she absorbed a certain amount of divine power daily, she could walk for a period of time.

“Do you remember where you sat?”

“I remember.”

Hela walked over to one wall and pulled out a book. It was a map book.

When she opened it, a large magical image appeared.

It was a map.

A moment that made one forget this was “inside a carriage.”

“That’s here.”

Hela pointed to a spot with her finger. A red dot was marked there.

“From here.”

She pointed to another spot. A red dot was marked there too.

“This is all my land.”

Viola blinked in surprise. She knew Hela was immensely wealthy, but it didn’t seem like it was to this extent.

‘For five years while you were lying down, I was desperate. When you wake up, I must repay my kindness. I must live for you, who sacrificed for us.’

Hela thought that the one thing Viola wanted most was the Winter Castle. Viola was a child fit to be the ruler of the Winter Castle without a flaw.

So she said. “And it’s yours too.”

Hela kicked and laughed. She spoke sincerely.

“I’m glad I can breathe alongside your grand dreams.”

Viola couldn’t say anything. If she said she didn’t have those grand dreams, it felt like a disaster would unfold. *

In front of the southern gate of Winter Castle.

Every day, many people flocked to Winter Castle.

Mercenary King Kaiser was overloaded with work.

His voice echoed loudly. At the base of the southern gate.

It reverberated across the plains.

“Stop the gifts!”

Those damned special envoys. Envoys and all.

Gifts directed towards Viola..

‘Ugh, this is so annoying.’

Kaiser seriously contemplated firing the southern gate commander due to the daily influx of people. “Hey, Hixson, can’t we just take them all out?”

“Then Viola would hate it.”

“Ugh.”

However, from afar, the sound of a military band could be heard. Dust was rising thickly; it didn’t seem normal.

“What’s that?”

With a scale that large, inspections would be quite strict. There were many things to consider, so Kaiser frowned.

“I can’t let this slide. We have to chase them away.”

But it turned out that, “What? Viola is inside?”

It was said to be a military band led by the ‘Terra Group.’ A procession for Viola.

Kaiser leaped down from the castle walls.

Although there were many people waiting to enter, Kaiser didn’t even glance their way as he ran.

“Viola!”

Another rhinoceros was charging next to him. It was Hixson.

Just like at the ‘Sacred Ground of the Ancient Warriors,’ Hixson was faster in running. On the castle walls, the warriors of Winter Castle shook their heads.

“Look there. They made tracks.”

The two elephants, who jumped off the walls, had dug two massive pits. “When will they dig them up again?”

“Quickly, grab a shovel and get out! The princess is coming!”

As much as he disliked digging, digging for Viola was acceptable. Fortunately, Elcina was nearby, and she magically flattened the path quickly.

In any case, Viola entered the Duke’s Mansion, welcomed by Hixson and Kaiser. The main gate of the Duke’s Mansion opened.

‘Ah…’

For some reason. ‘I’m tired.’

Even though she had deep sleep in Hela’s carriage, she felt tired. After waking up from five years of sleep, the world felt very exhausting.

‘They’ve become obsessed.

I understand it, but it’s a problem that it’s not just one or two people. That exhaustion didn’t end upon returning home. Chief Butler Carlton came to find Viola.

“Miss, it seems you should head to the reception room.”

“Why the reception room?”

“Since you found Elbato’s grave, guests have been flocking here.”

There were too many guests. So Carlton filtered them out at his level. Nonetheless, many VIPs still came to the reception room.

“Some have waiting in the reception for three whole days.”

All were esteemed persons wanting to meet Viola. Viola sighed.

Well.

If it’s something that needs to be wrapped up anyway, I should finish it quickly and rest.

“I just returned from a long journey. You’ll give me some time to wash up, right?”

“Of course. I’ll wait in the reception room.”

Pongpong said while walking along the hallway with Viola. “I could wash you up.”

I could wash you with a pleasantly warm spirit water. “It’s quite inconvenient for humans to have a castle.”

6 “I’m neither a man nor a woman; you can just use me, right?”

Pongpong split in half. No matter how distracted I was, I ended up sending Pongpong back with one attack.

“Rest in the Spirit Realm.”

“Hey, you bad kid………!”

Pongpong’s voice grew distant. The one who split Pongpong in half was Tundra.

After being deceived by Bichen and traveling to the west, Tundra stood next to Viola.

“I’m back.”

“Okay.”

Tundra didn’t say much. He quietly walked next to Viola.

Viola was grateful for that.

A reliable presence that quietly stood by her side.

Even if the whole world betrays me, I was certain that Tundra would not betray me.

But…… where’s Zeno?’

Originally, the escort was always Zeno’s job, but he was nowhere to be seen. The reason would only be known after reaching the reception room. “Everyone….”

The reception room was not just a regular one. Just as the inside of the carriage had expanded, the reception room had transformed into a massive banquet hall.

Within, palace musicians were creating melodies. ‘What is this……?’

In the distance. Three people sat at the head table.

‘Dad?’

Along with Dad, there were two more people. ‘The Emperor and Lady Selina?’

The Emperor and Selina were present too. It usually caused chaos across the continent when the Emperor moved…

‘Did they come secretly?’

Bringing palace musicians with them? ‘And the elves….’

The elves who were part of the band earlier were also there. In the reception room, Zeno was waiting.

“Viola Bellatu, the 6th Princess, is entering.”

Clap! Clap! Light applause began to ring out.

  

The first to clap was Medea Iah.

“Viola, your sister loves you.”

Hixson and Kaiser, who had caused a ruckus at the southern gate, awkwardly presented one flower each. “Heron said you would like these, right?”

“I couldn’t give you anything else…”

The Mercenary King was relatively poor and presented flowers instead of rare treasures. Viola accepted the two flowers.
