Money Heist Arc (2)
After 3 days of rest I prepared to depart for Etherial.
I thought I wouldn't go to any Carriage in Etheria Kingdom. I will walk and run the whole way.
I made this challenge to myself.I will surely lose without any preparation. Even if you think that you will win, you must not forget about losing.
There is a word called 'if'. What if I lose? However, losing, winning can be thought of later. I have to reach the state first now.
I started running straight along the south side of Coculam region.
I have not yet understood where Squit goes and how he comes to me.
He is called 'Queens Hope'. I have no idea why he was named 'Queens Hope'.
After going to Etheria kingdom I will have to go to the library and research this topic. Etheria kingdom is famous for researching magical beast, magical item and magical atmosphere.
I have been running continuously for about 7 hours. I never yawn. No matter how far I run.
I don't understand why people spend money to go from one area to another by carriage. They can run from one area to another if they want. So why don't they run?
Wait a minute.... Going to Carriage, this thing is normal for everyone. They never run and don't look like they can run that far. So I'm not normal?
I think it is better not to think about this matter now. I think it's better to focus on my path now.
I think I have a problem. Whenever a thought leaves my head, another one comes on its own.
If I win the festivals competition, there's a problem
If I win that competition, my name will be known. Then if my name spreads in neighboring states then I myself will be in trouble.
I may enter that contest with wrong name, address. But when I win they will definitely check all the information I gave.
Then if my real identity comes out in front of everyone then I will be in trouble. If this comes out in front of everyone that I am the prince of the Eternal Kingdom, then there is no point in my running away.
Because such news spreads very quickly.
It won't be good for me if the news gets out. But even from the Eternal Kingdom, will anyone come to catch me or try to catch me?
For the night I fled I escaped past all the defenses of the kingdom. Did I actually get through all the defenses or was everything pre-arranged?
The prince of a kingdom has escaped but no news has reached any of the neighboring kingdoms! I was so neglectful to them? They are satisfied that I am gone.
There is no need to think about anything else now. Because thinking about it now won't change my past. If I think about my future now, I can change the future by making use of the present.
I am now running through the hills. Climbing a mountain and thinking.
Suddenly I slipped down the hill into the forest below. I got a lot of pain in my hands and feet. I stood up and started walking slowly.
The moonlight seems to have blessed the forest. The light came through the trees and brightened the forest. As I walked through the light I heard music, it seemed like someone was singing.
I started moving towards the direction the music was coming from.
After going there I saw a white haired girl sitting on the edge of a pond wearing black clothes.
Fish jumping in the pond, moonlight reflecting the full moon in the pond. It looks like the reflection of the reflected moonlight is falling on that girl.
Seeing her, all my frustration went away. Seeing her, all my pain went away. My eyes seemed to be purified anew by the sight of her.
I will never forget this day. This is a moment in my life that I will always remember.
-King of the Reticence Kingdom
