Traversing to another world, Lin En is captured right from the start. The captor is the antagonist princess from the original work, intending to control him by using him for hypnosis experiments. In a critical moment, Lin En comes up with a quick-witted plan, feigning the success of the experiment and deceiving her with his acting skills. But this was only a temporary measure. Because in the original story, her ending is very tragic, and none of her associates meet good ends. Hence, Lin En must pretend to be under the hypnosis while secretly being ready to flee at any moment. But gradually things start to take an unexpected turn. ... The Princess's Diary [The experiment was a success!] [As the sole specimen, I've decided to keep him by my side.] [Due to the curse mark on my face, I am loathed by the public, but he says I'm beautiful.] [I'm happy because people tell the truth when hypnotized.] [Alone with him, I impulsively kissed him.] [The feeling was strange and made me lose my composure, fortunately, he won't retain any memory of it after the hypnosis is lifted.] [So, it's okay to be a bit bolder, right?]
The afternoon of the next day.
Upon the suggestion of a maid, Lynn, who had nothing better to do, made his way to the training ground at Augusta Manor.
He planned to stretch his muscles for the first time in a while and contemplate the direction of his future upgrades.
Though it was called a training ground, it was really just a vast expanse of sandy soil constructed at a corner of the manor's side.
The ground was dotted with numerous straw dummies for training purposes, and shelves nearby were filled with various types of wooden weapons.
There were single-handed swords like the Scottish Broadswords from his past life, sabers used specifically for horseback riding and slashing, maces and war hammers with extremely realistic counterweights, and even long-handled axes painted in dark gray.
At this very moment, a group of brawny men with bare chests were sweating profusely in the training ground, happily frolicking.
