Chapter 8: Make a plan to survive!

Long story short, after Yulia Austern left my room, I was alone. Yulia told me a variety of things and answered my questions.

So I could make this conclusion based on my opinion and Yulia's story...

I, who was a twenty-five-year-old regular employee of the company's software department, am possessed, or more precisely, I am in the body of Princess Irene Sophia de Grande Santasos. Despite the fact, I was a seven-year-old princess...

My goodness, the distance to my age is much different from the original!

According to the novel {The Tragedy of Winter Coldheart}, Princess Irene Sophia would feel sadness and anguish from her father before dying after the 'death' of Queen Qasella Carla de Grande Santasos.

So, right now, Queen Qasella is still alive from before the 'tragedy' occurred. A tragedy in which there is a rebellion inside the Santasos Kingdom and an attack by the Demon Kingdom, Quasar.

If I recall correctly, as a dedicated reader of the novel, the tragedy will occur on Princess Irene Sophia's 17th birthday.

That implies ten years from now?!

*Gasp! *

"Huh..." I held my throbbing head in the bandage.

After that, I leaned back on the bed to think again.

Therefore, in order to ensure Princess Irene's survival—or rather, to ensure I didn't meet my end before my father, King Aaron Lucius de Grande Santasos, could grieve the Queen's passing—I needed to devise a strategy promptly!

A plan to survive as this unfortunate Princess Irene Sophia!

Let's reminisce...

I tried to recall the verse from the novel in my memory since I had read it completely.

( "Father, I wonder why you would hate me. Did I do something to make you despise me? Is my birth on this world as your king's daughter ...Was it a mistake?"

"I guess this is the end for me."

As soon as Princess Irene Sophia said this, she looked out the window, which was covered in thick snow.

The snow falling slowly appeared to comprehend the mood of the situation. Her bedroom was dark and without light, much like her dismal heart.

When she exhaled heavily, the blood that had been seeping from her stomach gradually stopped. Her body appeared to freeze and turn blue in the cold.

The night's silence and thick snow welcomed and mourned her death with coldness... )

( The end. )

Oh no, not this sentence...

I almost burst into tears when I came to remember the last sentence of the novel {The Tragedy of Winter Coldheart}, before it ended.

Why do I feel like I've experienced that when I only read about it?

My small body felt anxious and chilled for a brief moment.

True, her name is simply Princess, however Princess Irene did not receive love from her father until she died in the winter.

It's quite sad...

Don't worry, Princess Irene; as an otaku—that is, an avid reader of novels—I, Riana Qisha, will assist you in using your body to receive the love and devotion you deserve as a human being! Also a princess!

Even though my previous life was not as lovely as I always hoped...

However, I am really determined. Since Princess Irene and I are now united in the same body, I hope we obtain the happy ending that we desire!

"Hmm..."

I sat back down after standing in various postures and thinking different thoughts in my head.

Although I don't even know how I can enter Princess Irene's body, it seems that, apart from surviving myself, I also have to think of reasons and find out how I can be in this world and body...

More importantly, where is the actual Princess Irene? Is my only soul here in her body?

*Node, node*

I nodded, acknowledging my hypothesis and my own thoughts.

While holding the bandage on my little head, I tried to come up with a plan to survive this novel as Princess Irene and gain a happy ending.

So, first and foremost, I must prevent Queen Qasella's kidnapping, which will occur ten years before my seventeenth birthday. Then I had to consider how I could get close to Queen Qasella Carla and King Aaron Lucius as their daughter, becoming a precious child.

Furthermore, I need to figure out how to earn money!!

If all of my efforts fail, I will quietly utilize the money I saved to flee to somewhere far from this Santasos kingdom, save myself, and live in peace. Although this strategy seems a little selfish...

However, that is the only way to stay safe and survive.

"Hwargh...Just thinking about this makes me dizzy."

I took a deep breath. I lay back on my bed, my hands at my sides.

"It's just so hard to think about how I will survive..."

As I mumbled quietly, I remembered something.

( King Aaron Lucius de Grande Santasos —A ruthless and cold king with a look in his eyes, appeared to wish to kill. A merciless tyrant who shows no mercy to his opponents.

The moment he swings his sword upwards, know that it will be the last you see before you are beheaded. )

"Urgh..."

Just remembering the sentence from the novel already made me feel nauseous and dizzy. My small body felt a little scared.

So, why is that nasty monarch suddenly becoming my father?

Nonetheless, I'm grateful that His Highness hasn't paid any notice to me yet, as I need to figure out the most secure method to communicate with him.

However, how should I become close to him and the Queen?

"I wonder what the faces of King Aaron and Queen Qasella look like."

As I whispered to myself, I fell asleep on the exquisite bed, exhausted from my complicated thoughts.
