Synopsis

Chapter 1LADIES MUST BEHAVE

"Have you found her yet ?" I heard Grace ask one of the guards with a worried voice.

I was always giving Grace a hard time since I was little. She was my personal maid but more of a mother. I never got the previlage to spend time and bond with my real mother . My father had 6 wives, my mother being the third, died when I was 6. How many children does my dearly beloved father have? I don't care cause he doesn't and more over I'm his least favourite child.

"You still haven't found the princess?" I felt bad for my poor Grace and thought of just coming out of hiding.

I opened the door slowly to prevent it from making noise. As I was closing it I felt someone behind me and my heart skipped a beat.

"Oh my goodness, Grace , you scared me"

"Not as much as as you scared me princess" Grace stated with concern evident on her face. "Where have you been your highness? I have looked everywhere for you but didn't find you"

"uuhm I was...I was in the..the garden yes"I lied with a cheecky smile on my face.

"your highness we searched the garden but you were not there." She gave me a question look.

The truth is I went out of the castle. I liked going to the woods to be far from all the royal drama that had been happening lately. My father had been marrying off his daughters to different kings and princes. He thought King Donward wanted to conquor our kingdom and so he wanted to gain more allies.

"Ok fine you got me I went out of the castle"

"Again? your highness the last time you sniked out your father punished you when he found out. I don't want you to go through all that again.You know ladies must behave. Wasn't that punishment enough to make you behave?"

"Well as long as he doesn't find out, I won't get punished right." I said to Grace as we were entering my room.

"Then what I'm I supposed to tell his majesty when he asks where you've been?"

"Just tell him I was sleeping in the guest's quarters because I didn't want to be disturbed"

"What will I do with you my little girl"Grace sighed and went to the bath room to prepare a warm bath for me since I was dirty and smelled of sweat.

^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^

After taking a bath, Grace ordered some other maids to dress me up. I hated being treated like a child but I didn't want to give Grace more problems so I just let them do as they were told.Today I was supposed to have dinner with the whole family, or what's left of it.

There was a nock at my door just as I was about to open it. I opened it and there was a guard waiting to escort me to the dinning hall.we walked in silence till we reached the dinning hall's double doors.The guard opened it for me and I walked in. I was the last one to arrive . All eyes where on me as I was walking to my sit, it was the furthest from father. We all ate in silence as the servants stood there waiting for us to finish. I hated being watched when eating.

"Lily" finally father broke the silence.

"Yes father" I replied to him.

"I spoke to King Conward of hackenland, he said his son wants to take a second wife, when the king saw you pass by yesterday when we were taking a walk in the garden, he was interested in you for his son and when I told him that you were my daughter and not promised to anyone, we agreed that you would make a wonderful wife for his son the prince"wait a minute..... just hold on does this old man want to marry me off like he did to his daughters? I thought to myself. I really wanted to say something but I knew better than to provoke my father right now.

"The marriage will take place in two days time. You better get yourself ready because I know you are very stubborn but I'm not taking no for an answe this time around." And with that I had officially lost my appetite.

My two remaining sister's who were not yet sent to there supposed husbands whispered something into each other's ears and started laughing. I am pretty sure they were laughing because they knew how much I hated William. The troll used to be my sisters' assistant when it came to giving me hell on earth when we were little.Even though Prince William and my siblings used to team up when teasing me, my sisters never really liked him.It had been Years sinse I last saw Prince William. I wonder how the jerk looks now.

Everyone descended to their respective rooms. I was thinking of ways of how to prevent this marriage. Coming up with nothing, I got off my bed and went to stare out at the night sky. Grace used to tell me that my mother also like gazing at the night sky. She would go out in the gardens and just stare up at the stars. I must admit, it was peaceful looking at the amazing view of stars and shooting stars too.

"What if I just run away from this place? All I have to do is find a place to stay and support myself. Its not like I need too much. I could just find a little job to support myself. I mean I am used to doing hard work coz of how I train myself for defence. That's right I will do fine on my own." I whispered to myself as It finally hit me after some time of star gazing.

I planed to make my escape after diner tomorrow so that I could built up some strength for a head start.

The Fate Of The World Is In My Hands, But All I Want To Do Is Eat!

'Kill monsters, eat meat' 'I mean, Kill monsters, save lives. Got it.' 'Tut, I could've sworn that the first one sounded better.' She wasn't a girl looking for freedom or self-righteous liberation by a hero, or whatever shit a girl who suffered for almost all her life would crave. -the shit of a life she was living was horrible, but it was bearable, and so she got used to it. Rather, instead of freedom, what this little missy wanted was money. Lots and lots of them so she never has to worry about the next day. Money - bountiful enough that when she has to spend, she doesn't need to look back or calculate her assets to see how much she has left. Money - bountiful enough to get all the fried chicken she could ever dream of. Yeah, you heard it, fried chicken. For those who did not have money to spare leisurely, getting fried chicken was like a pipe dream to them and she had been one of those unfortunate souls. A comfortable roof above her head and no worries as to when she would get ordered around to steal. No worries about when she would get her next meal-- That was her liberation. And she got it. Just that, she got it most absurdly. Awakened! Those were the people ruling the world, alongside beastly and deadly monsters who threatened the safety of average human beings. And those awakened call the shots. Alice never dreamed she would one day be awakened, and compared to others with their game-like system displaying their attributes and strength; she had a full-grown man whom only she could hear, watching her back at every turn and telling her what to do. He was kinda a pain in the ass but she couldn't complain. It was this gift he had bestowed on her that made her the most powerful Awakened there was with stats that even S-class awakeneds couldn't compare to. She was the boss, now. Mwa-hahahahaha. But life didn't go as easy and leisurely as she planned. With great power comes great responsibility, right? Well, in her case with great power comes great hunger. She couldn't go a moment without getting hungry and her stomach had become a bottomless pit. And to get food, she needed money, and to get money, she had to hunt monsters. The monsters plagued humanity, causing catastrophes and taking lives mercilessly. Those monsters, as scary as they may be, were her target and she had to face them head-on. The bigger the monsters the more money she would gain. Yeah, that was the plan, but... This guy acting as her system seemed to have other plans, putting her at the forefront of 'justice' and having her clean the mess he somewhat created. 'Ugh, I can already sense a shadow of foreboding. Someone, please tell me I'm not acting the main character role. I just want to eat, okay?'
