I Was Just Having Fun With The Time Limit – Chapter 150

Chapter 150

I sat in front of the mirror.

Yuri, standing behind me, tilted her head.

“It’s strange.”

“What is?”

“There are no wings.”

Nanny Ruruka, who was tidying up the bed, stopped what she was doing and approached us.

“That’s what I’m saying. Yuri, do you also check every day?”

“Yes, I check every day.”

I don’t know what they were talking about, but the two of them got along very well.

“Let’s always cross-check. Morning and night.”

“Okay.”

A little bewildered, I asked.

“Why are you checking that? Cross-check, isn’t that a bit too much?”

As if they had made a promise, the two of them said the same thing at the same time.

“What if you run away to the sky?”

“You can’t run away to the sky.”

“……”

I was at a loss for words.

It felt like there was madness in their eyes.

I think I should just pretend I don’t know.

I felt like I would get seriously hurt if I tried to find out more.

“Princess-nim, I’ll do your hair. You have to stay still.”

Yuri started fiddling with my hair.

She kept applying and spraying something, but I don’t really know what she was doing.

“As expected, this kind of voluminous hair suits Princess-nim. Ah! Of course, the short cut was also beautiful like an angel.”

“Don’t you just like doing long hair more?”

“Of course, there’s that too. The more good things, the better.”

“But you’re putting in a lot of effort today.”

It’s a little, just a little scary.

“You have to be the main character today. Ah! Of course, you’re always the main character, but I mean you have to be more of a main character than usual.”

“Why?”

“Because Raydu is coming.”

“What’s Raydu?”

“It’s a term for Reina. Narmore-oppa made it.”

Then she hummed ‘Raydu~ Raydu~ Ugly Raydu~’ It was nothing special, but it was funny.

I burst out laughing.

The fun part ended there.

About 1 hour and 50 minutes have passed.

“Your hair isn’t done yet.”

“It’s been 2 hours.”

“2 hours? It’s been 1 hour and 50 minutes, no, 51 minutes. 9 minutes is a difference of 540 seconds, and the margin of error seems too large.”

“……”

“Isn’t it?”

It was so true that I felt dejected.

I have to admit what I have to admit.

“That’s true.”

“How do you define 1 second, Princess-nim?”

“The unit of time that makes the hyperfine transition frequency in a cesium-133 atom about 9 billion Hz?”

“You can define it that way too! That’s a new approach.”

“Yeah, but I’m sorry. I don’t know the exact number.”

It was 919…… something, but I don’t remember.

I guess I studied too carelessly.

Still, it was refreshing to have such interesting conversations.

“Oh, the prerequisite for defining this is the ground state without perturbation.”

“Can I roughly understand it as absolute zero?”

“Yes!”

I felt refreshed for a very short time, but I soon got tired again.

Playing with dolls is no fun!

I’m not doing it anymore!

The fact that this sturdy Bilotian body was tired said it all.

But seeing that Yuri wasn’t tired, I wondered if she had better stamina than me.

On top of that, Ruruka joined in and made me try on this dress and that dress repeatedly.

“That……”

Of course, I liked trying on clothes and enjoyed dressing up, but this was too much.

“No. It’s not done yet.”

“Okay, I got it.”

What? I’m a little scared.

After a long time, the person who rescued me was Chief Attendant Dailtha-nim.

“That’s enough.”

“Yes?”

“You are already beautiful enough.”

I turned my head and looked at Chief Attendant Dailtha-nim.

Chief Attendant Dailtha-nim was looking at me with a gentle smile.

I raised my right hand and greeted her with a bright smile.

Chief Attendant Dailtha-nim placed her right hand on her chest and bowed gracefully.

It’s amazing how she can be so graceful with just a simple greeting.

For the record, Chief Attendant Dailtha-nim and I have become very close over the past year.

Chief Attendant Dailtha-nim lost her most beloved lover, and I lost my most beloved friend.

It was strange back then.

We didn’t have to comfort each other, but we became each other’s strongest support.

‘I used to be a little scared of her.’

Now she was a very reliable supporter.

But even more than my relationship with Chief Attendant Dailtha-nim becoming close, Yuri also became close to her.

“No.”

“……”

Yuri became the most successful maid in the history of the empire, and in fact, she became rich enough not to have to be a maid.

The only reason she was still my maid was because she was my friend.

Yuri was less wary of Chief Attendant Dailtha-nim and began to speak her mind.

The interesting thing was that Chief Attendant Dailtha-nim seemed to like Yuri quite a bit.

“You have to be the most beautiful in the world today.”

“Aren’t you the most beautiful?”

Yuri’s eyes widened.

“Chief Attendant-nim, I didn’t know you were the type to say such things.”

“I tend to acknowledge facts.”

What kind of expression should I make when they have such a serious conversation in front of me?

Of course, I wasn’t offended, but it was a little embarrassing.

‘But……’

Chief Attendant Dailtha-nim did try to stop them verbally.

She definitely did.

‘Why is she standing there watching?’

Instead of stopping the madness-stricken Yuri and Nanny, she was looking at me with anticipation in her eyes.

It seemed like her initial attempt to stop them was just an excuse to take that position.

Chief Attendant Dailtha-nim didn’t seem to enjoy playing with dolls herself, but she seemed to enjoy watching others play with dolls.

I felt a little betrayed.

I think I should just give up, so I closed my eyes tightly.

✦✦✦✦✦✦

Isabel walked arm in arm with Yuri.

They met Armitel in the middle.

“Lieutenant General-nim! No, you’re not a Lieutenant General anymore, are you? Deputy Chief Aide-nim!”

Armitel was carrying a thick stack of documents under her arm.

Her face was much paler than before, and her dark circles were quite dark.

There was no vitality in her face, but when she saw Isabel, she seemed to regain some energy.

“You are truly beautiful. It’s amazing how much you grow every time I see you.”

“That much?”

“Yes.”

“I’m only ten years old.”

“But you have a Bilotian body.”

After Honey Badger left Isabel, Isabel grew rapidly.

Isabel’s actual age was ten, but she looked about sixteen on the outside.

Although it varied from country to country, sixteen was considered an adult in some countries, so Armitel’s reaction was perfectly reasonable.

“You are dazzlingly beautiful. I thought my younger sister was the most beautiful in the world.”

“No. Lia is prettier than me.”

Isabel truly believed so.

What does it matter who is prettier between friends? Anyway, Asellia was the protagonist of , and she thought that a supporting character couldn’t be prettier than the protagonist.

“Then I’ll be going now.”

“You look very busy. Are you okay?”

“……I’m okay.”

“Is it okay to say you’re okay with that not-okay face?”

“……”

Actually, she wasn’t okay.

She was very diligent and competent, and that became a poison for her.

Viaton was always amazed when he saw Armitel.

‘Oh? You’re doing that?’

‘Oh? That works?’

‘Oh? You did it again? You’re amazing.’

The more competent Armitel was, the more work was given to her.

If she finished her work quickly, it didn’t mean she could leave work early, but rather that she had to do more work. It was an unreasonable ant hell.

The luxurious and peaceful life of a civil servant that Viaton had initially talked about didn’t exist in the world.

Armitel approached Isabel.

“Princess-nim, would you grant me one thing?”

“What is it? Of course.”

“Someday, I’ll assas…… no.”

Isabel couldn’t believe her ears.

She thought she just said assassination.

“Can I have a deep exchange and build camaraderie?”

There was only one person who was her superior.

Since she was the Deputy Chief Aide, Chief Aide Viaton was her superior.

“Isn’t deep exchange and camaraderie a good thing? Of course, I welcome it.”

“Yes, thank you. It will be very deep.”

Isabel couldn’t believe her ears again.

She thought she heard something crack, like a tooth.

‘……No way, right?’

✦✦✦✦✦✦

I moved towards the conference hall where the Royal Assembly was being held.

The dress was so long and heavy that it got in the way.

I ran into a few people on the way.

They all stopped when they saw me and complimented me on my beauty.

I was embarrassed, but I was still happy.

Actually, this much reaction was fine.

According to rumors, some soldiers were singing and spreading something called the ‘Isabel Anthem,’ but I thought it would be okay as long as I didn’t hear that.

‘Come to think of it, I wonder if Sergeant Lucain is doing well.’

I haven’t seen him since we met at the Jirdel Base Camp, and I suddenly wondered if he was doing well.

Yuri said.

“Oh, look over there.”

Up ahead, knights in shining silver armor were walking in a two-column formation.

“Attention!”

I didn’t know.

That those proud knights were Black Whale knights.

And that there was a new apprentice knight among them.
