My Knight Rescuer is a Jerk! So Why should I ignore the Prince?

"Always remember, no matter how much a fae may seem like they experience emotions, no matter how human like a fae may behave...a fae can never be a human." The Keybearer. A young maiden from another world foretold by ancient prophesy, destined to collect the seven keys and save the world. Surely that's the kind of story that finds some plucky high schooler dreaming of adventure and whisks them off to find their true love, right? Overworked salary women like Emily have long passed the point where such fantasies can come true, and even if they did, it's not like she'd know the first thing about what to do. ...So of course, nobody even bothered to ask her before dropping her into an entirely new world full of magic and danger. Like the three hungry orcs eyeing her as soon as she wakes up. "What do you mean I can sense the keys if I use magic?! What magic?!" If Emily could, she'd have immediately issued a rejection letter, but unfortunately, the only way back is to finish her quest somehow. But it's not all danger and confusion. The knight who rushed into battle to save her is charming and kind and gorgeous, and the beautiful and lonely prince has a soft and kind smile only for her. If everyone she meets along the way is like them... Well. It can't be that bad, right? "...--I'VE BEEN KIDNAPPED BY A PAINTING?!"

"Do not lose heart." Adrien murmured, as if sensing her distress.

Emily managed a faint smile. "T...thank you...for trying to help me..."

Adrien chuckled. "It is the very least I can do, considering everything that you have already done for me. And all that you will do for...everyone else, in Verilonia..."

A light pink dusted his pale features and he cleared his throat, averting his gaze.

Merwyn pursed his lips and shook his head. "Well. I suppose we can have you kiss every person in the crowd!"

"Guh-?!"

...What!?

No.

Just - No.

She would rather not-

She definitely didn't want to do that.

Not at all!

Merwyn had to have been kidding!

He did it just to tease her!!

But-

Unfortunately. It was the best, most surefire method to detect the keys.
