I just got reincarnated and I'm already in trouble?
(This is quite important!
Please, if you see any grammar mistakes and such, feel free to complain, and please give me suggestions for grammar. English is my second language, so I'm not that good!)
「You have woken, huh. Wait in there and don't do anything, we're currently discussing what to do with you.」[Guard]
「Okay?」[Kyle]
Such a sweet voice.
「Hm?」[Kyle]
As I checked my body, I noticed. I'm a woman now, 4 feet tall but, aren't I sexy? The chest is just medium though. But, why is it that I don't care? I feel nothing about it. Aren't I supposed to be frustrated about this?
So I lost even my pride as a man, huh?
I guess I'm not going to be able to use it anymore.
Let's see… is there some kind of status in this world? If there is, that's going to be helpful.
「Status… open status… stats… Menu… Status open, oh, it's here.」[Kyle]
Let's see…

[Exhibitionist]⟩Increases favoritism from the opposite gender, more effective when the user is naked up to some extent
Exhibitionist? What did I do to get such a title? And I thought she's going to give me over 100 skills? Ahh, can't be helped.
(Author: Where on Earth do you think I can pull out such a tremendous amount of skills? I don't want to give separated skills with only specific functions. I'll do it for other people though.)
But hey, aren't I op? (Author: Not really, you'll know later in the story.) Even with fewer skills, I can make them all :LVL10: let's do that then.
:SKILLS:
Active:
Self status, Appraisal, Skill Manipulation, Stealth 10, Magic Manipulation 10, Magic Creation 10,
Full enhancement 10(Magic UP, Mana Capacity UP, AGI UP, STR UP, DEX UP, INT UP, LUK UP, VIT UP, Body Enhancement, Blood Enhancement, Thought Enhancement, Additional Healing),

There we go, I'll try all the functions of :Skill Manipulation: later.
Now, what should I do? I can escape from here but, I still want to know what I did to get here. I'll just sleep then.
Roughly 30 minutes later.
「Hey, you, get up, you're going to have an audience with the King.」[Guard]
The king? Am I in the castle's prison? I know that my location is going to be random but, aren't I unlucky? I'll have to do it, I guess.
「Okay.」[Kyle]
The guard unlocks my cuffs and puts on some new ones so that I can get out.
Should I escape? I don't think I should, it's the king, after all. Don't want to get into more trouble than this.
We've arrived in the King's Hall, there's a lot of people. Are they nobles?
*Murmur*
I guess that's a given. Me, a prisoner, gets an audience with the King, and I'm still naked. You could've at least given me some clothes, you know? Not that I'm embarrassed but, to keep my public image good.
Appraisal. I felt a sudden click in my brain and got injected with information about the nobles and soldiers here. The nobles' total average level was 17, lowest 13 highest 26. Soldiers' total average level is 25, lowest 23 highest 28.
「We're now going to judge this woman that suddenly appeared in the first prince, Jerome's 18th birthday party. State your name, woman.」[Prime Minister]
Name: Loire Cro
Race:Human
Age: 48
Level: 5
(Note unworthy stats, I'm kind of tired of this.)
Skills: Diplomacy 7, Thought Enhancement 4, Eyes of Truth(Unique Skill that can detect lies depending on the users' level and the target's level and strength.)
Titles: [1st Prime Minister of Alphore of the 18th Generation]⟩Grants a great authority in the Kingdom of Alphore, [Never deceived eyes]⟩Grants the Unique Skill: Eyes of Truth
No wonder he's the 1st Prime Minister of his generation, he's great when it comes to diplomacy.
The knight I'm with, forced me to kneel. That's rude, don't you think? But the name, huh? I guess I won't need the name "Kyle" anymore now that I'm in a different world, and now a female. Hmmm… Let's go with… Celeste, as for the surname… Crourem. Meaning, Celestial Blood.
「Um… I'm Celeste Crourem...Uhh, may I ask why I'm being given a trial?」[Celes]
The PM shook his head twice when the King glanced at him.
They must have tried to detect if I'm lying or not, which failed.
「Celeste Crourem, is it? The one in question can't ask questions unless given permission, which is unlikely.」[Prime Minister]
「That's unreasonable, don't you think?」[Celes]
Not really, it's half reasonable. Even back on earth, you're not allowed to talk if the Judge didn't give you permission but here, they don't seem to give the defendant any right to talk. Sooner or later, greedy nobles will corrupt this country, or maybe it's already corrupted that's why the trial is like this?
「This is the last warning, quietly listen as we judge you!」[Prime Minister]
This is troublesome. Should I scare them to answer me? Let's do just that.
As I thought of that I broke the cuffs and created some sort of plain white dress for myself, it cost quite a lot of magic power since I don't have the materials :MP:2743/2984:
「Guards! Cease her at once!」[King]
I bound the guards with :Blood magic:Crimson Bind:
*Clamor*
「Can you please answer my question please?」[Celes]
「You! Stop thi- Forgive me, my King.」[Prime Minister] The king waved his hand to stop the PM.
「You seek answers, am I right? I'll answer you so free my men for now.」[King]
Finally, someone reasonable, and someone I can talk to.
「Okay.」[Celes]
After I freed the guards the King ordered them to go back to their positions and stand by.
「My first questions. Why am I here? Why do I have to go through a trial? What did I do? Who are you?」[Celes]
The king had a mixed expression of relief, confusion, and disappointment(What does it look like? Such expression...). I guess he's disappointed in his soldier that can't do anything against a little girl. Well, they don't know I'm a vampire so I'm guessing that's a given.
「Forgive my rudeness, I'm the king of this Kingdom, the Kingdom of Alphore, My name is Riel Alphore of the 7th generation. You're being judged because you suddenly appeared out of nowhere in midair, and fell on top of the first prince. It's his 18th birthday party so we have siezed and imprisoned you, and decided that we will decide what to do with you after the party. We have to keep up our guard against assassins of the sort, you see.」[King Riel]
Identity can't be appraised. Cause: Identity concealing item: S+ grade.
I can't appraise him? I guess that's a given, considering that he's such a huge figure of this Kingdom. There's also the possibility that he's just a double but still given the Concealment Item to be more convincing that he's the king.
But my location is an unlucky pull, eh?
「So, out of caution, you labeled me as an assassin? I'm pretty sure I'm in a bad condition at that time, and you still labeled me as dangerous? Well, I am dangerous if you're my enemy. Now, are you?」[Celes]
I definitely must have quite the bad condition since all that power suddenly entered this body.
I invoked all attributes as balls and formed a circle above me as I stretch my arms upward to intimidate them.
*Panick, clamor*
The King looked like he's not bothered at all while everyone in the vicinity is moving away from me.
「Could you please stop that or I'll be forced to order my best man to eliminate you? Right now our relationship is neutral, nothing more, nothing less.」[King Riel]
Neutral, huh? That works for me.
「I see. Forgive me for that but, are you threatening me?」[Celes]
I added more magic power to the attribute balls to increase the size and firepower.:MP:2645/2984:
「I am not but, any more than that and we're going to have to stop you.」[King Riel]
Fine, as long as I'm not going to get troubled because of the politics of this world.
I sucked all the magic back to cease it.
「With that can I leave now? I don't have any business with you in the first place, forgive me for trampling over the Prince, I held no hostilities what so ever.」[Celes]
「You still can't, we have to discuss things such as your identity. Who on earth are you?」[King Riel]
Didn't I already introduce myself? This is quite annoying. Wait, annoying? So I can still get annoyed and getting annoyed leads to anger and anger is the feeling of wanting to hurt someone but, I don't think I feel that way right now. I'll have to do a lot of things if I want to regain my emotions.
「 As I said, I'm Celeste Crourem. Is my name not enough?」[Celes]
「It's not enough. Give us, for example, where are you from, what's your race. Humans certainly don't have slightly pointed ears.」[King Riel]
So he noticed, huh? Should I say it? I'm the last of my race, you know? I'll just say that I'm only a Vampire.
「I'm a vampire, I won't tell you of my origins. That is mo-」[Celes]
「A vampire? Only a celestial vampire can survive in this much sunlight, and they're already extinct. So cut the chase and answer honestly.」[King Riel]
(The room has a lot of windows.)
Is that so? Then I guess it can't be helped. This has somehow become troublesome, I want to start finding ways to regain my emotions.
「Then why don't you use appraisal on me, but I'll conceal my stats, skills, and titles.」[Celes]
Some of those titles are troublesome, after all.
「Appraisal? Are you really fine with that? It's taboo to appraise a person, did you not know?」[King Riel]
Taboo? I've been appraising all of you here though? I probably shouldn't say that.
「Yes, I'm fine with it.」[Celes]
「Well then, Arthur come here!」[King Riel]
「Yes, my King.」[Arthur]
He's quite strong-looking and intimidating.
「This is Arthur, the strongest in this Kingdom, soon, the whole continent.」[King Riel]
Now that's quite ambitious.
Same as the King, I can't appraise him because of a concealment item, now it's an S+ grade.
「You flatter me, my King.」[Arthur]
「Now, appraise her.」[King Riel]
「Understood.」[Arthur]
Hmm? So this is what it feels like to be appraised, this is sort of uncomfortable, do they not notice it?
「Name: Celeste Crourem, LVL: none? Race: …」[Arthur]
Oh?
「What's wrong, Arthur? What's her race?」[King Riel]
「My King, I suggest that we talk about this in private.」[Arthur]
「Is that so? Is she that rare to do so?」[King Riel]
「Yes, my King.」[Arthur]
This is getting more and more troublesome, I don't want anything to do with the Royal Family.
「Well then, shall we move to another room?」[King Riel]
「Don't want to, you guys can talk about that on your own, I'm leaving.」[Celes]
「We still ha-」[Prime Minister]
「Let her be.」[King Riel]
「But, my King, we still don't know if she's safe to us, to the Kingdom!」[Prime Minister]
「What did I say?」[King Riel]
「Agh, u-understood, my King.」[Prime Minister]
「I'll get going then.」[Celes]
I got out of the room as I said those words.
*King Riel's POV*
We relocated after she left. Now then, what is it that Arthur is so scared of revealing to the public? It's her race but, I believe that she's just another "wannabe."
「Well then, what is she, Arthur?」[King Riel]
「Yes, my King. I'll get straightforward, we can't deal with her in terms of strength. Similar to those guys, but slightly weaker.」[Arthur]
For those words to come from someone who's already a cut above all. Just what is she?
「And why is that?」[King Riel]
「She, my King, is a Celestial Vampire, the last of them, I believe she has lived for more than thousands of years.」[Arthur]
(Author: Naaahh, she was just born this day.)
「A celestial Vampire? They're supposed to be extinct 500 years ago, am I wrong?」[King Riel]
「Yes, they're supposed to be but,...」[Arthur]
「But? Continue, Arthur. I hate beating around the bush.」[King Riel]
「Yes. I saw a glimpse of her title, my King. These 2; [True Ancestor] and [The last Celestial Vampire]. She's an endangered species, and I suggest we befriend her, for the Kingdom's sake. No, for the world's peace.」[Arthur]
「Is that so? Then, deploy our best scout, observe her in the shadows, don't do anything else, that's an order.」[King Riel]
「Understood! Please excuse me!」[Arthur]
For the world's peace, huh? What on earth did we just poke, a bees' nest? No, we just got ourselves involved with Despair's Incarnate. Life ahead is going to be a troublesome one if we fail this.
*Celeste's POV*
At the King's room with Stealth on.
Hmph, it was a good idea to show them my titles. With that, the King will be more cautious of me, and won't do anything but to watch. I'll have to find a way to shake off that scout though. I don't want them spying on me while I'm looking for a way to regain my emotions.
Let's get out of here for real then.
