I Was Threatened To Go Out With Her Majesty the Princess - Chapter 44
44 – Episode 44 Theater
Clatter-clatter-clatter-
The sound of carriage wheels rolling violently.
Stella nodded. I’m bored and sleepy.
She stretched out her arms.
“Haam. Is there anything interesting?”
It’s fun.
“Would you like to hear a story?”
“story?”
“Yes. Wouldn’t it be a little fun to hear the story?”
“good night. “Try it.”
When the approval came, I thought about what to say. Soothe your lips.
“Do you know how the Mysterious Island was born?”
“Know.”
Stella nodded as if it was obvious. She usually read a lot of books, and among
the many books, some contained the story of her birth on the Mysterious Island.
Stella muttered.
“Isn’t this the land that a god fell on and ruined?”
I don’t know if God actually came down. Here, God is both a metaphor and a
figurative expression.
Several scholar wizards say stars, meteors, meteorites. It has been hypothesized
that this land was created because such things collided with the ground and
caused mana oversaturation, but it has not yet been completely revealed how this
land was created.
Since ancient times, stars have been faith, truth, and God. Therefore, another
name for the mysterious island is the land where a god fell and ruined it.
The essence of the land is closer to a certain area caused by mana saturation.
It is a strange land with an abnormal concentration of mysterious mana.
The island of mystery is a place where the mysteries that may or may not exist
are made.
I rubbed my sore shoulder. My back hurts from sitting for a long time.
“Then you know why it is called an island in the land.”
Even now, people confuse land and island, but that place was originally land. It
was relatively recent that it was called an island.
Stella narrowed her eyes.
“Isn’t that because the area was divided in the Magic Tower?”
“That’s right, but more accurately, it’s a land, but it’s closed like an island
as you can’t enter it except during specific times, so it’s called the
Mysterious Island.”
The official name for the mysterious island is probably the mysterious land.
However, as it is only accessible for one month out of the year, a wizard said
it was more like an island than land.
Soon after, the Magic Tower changed the name of the mysterious land to the
mysterious island.
“You know well.”
“I’ve been there a few times.”
I have been to the mysterious island quite a few times. I also went with my
father.
I even went back and forth to bring the magic herb that was in my arms.
After a brief pause, Stella opened her mouth.
“Hmm… I don’t really have anything to talk about.”
“Neither do I.”
I didn’t know during class, but the princess and I didn’t have anything to say.
That said, I couldn’t just stare out the window all the time, so I spoke first.
“What’s your schedule after the night of truth?”
“Well, nothing has been decided yet. How about you then?”
“I have to go to the manor once.”
I have to go to my hometown after finishing this work. I had been told to come
before, but this time my father called me so that I could not leave it out, so I
should go right away as soon as it is over.
“You seem to have a good relationship with your family.”
“Yes. It’s not particularly bad.”
Among the nobles, there are quite a few families who fight over inheritance
issues but maintain a close relationship, but at least my family was not one of
those families.
Other than that, time passed quite quickly as we chatted about trivial matters.
Percussion.
When we almost reached the mysterious island, the princess and I got off the
carriage.
“ok rr
As soon as you get off, the muscles in your body that were sore move more
freely, and the numbness in your body automatically gets better.
Stella stretched out.
“You’re tired even though you’ve been sitting all day.”
“Riding a wagon for a long time also requires a lot of stamina.”
As we relaxed our tense muscles, the guides from the mysterious island greeted
us.
“It’s an honor to meet you. The first star of the Empire. Her Highness Princess
Stella and Royal Guard Cadian de Yuzatran.”
The guides were wizards belonging to the Mage Tower.
took a step forward. From here, you have to walk to the mysterious island.
The Mystic Island is normally closed with a thick fog, fire, or water barrier at
its entrance. But once a year.
When the saturated mana stabilizes to some extent, the entrance is wide open.
A twilight light descends and walks through the fog.
The reverberation of mana scattering under the dazzling light source created a

dreamy scene, like petals fluttering in the wind.
If you pass by a place that is good for attracting attention, what comes out is
a person.
The entrance to the mysterious island was ordinary. It was very different from
what she had imagined.
“It’s surprisingly ordinary. I thought it would be a little more unusual because
it’s a mysterious island.”
“Isn’t that the case everywhere people live?”
handed out an invitation
“This mystery is a memory. Please keep that in mind.”
After confirming the invitation, the robed wizard spoke in a low voice.
The wizard steps aside from the entrance. Me and Stella went inside.
A bright sun greets us. Stella took the whole sight in detail. It was no
different from ordinary land.
There are people, there are shops, there are restaurants.
The road to the mysterious island is opened only once a year, but it only
applies to the road, and there were many people living on the island during the
period when the road was not open in a specific area.
The society they built is no different from the land outside the island.
The book was dotted with interesting things, but Stella was disappointed that
there was nothing special when she arrived. she muttered.
“I expected it. Only then is there anything different from other places?”
It must have been more fun to go to the Magic Tower this way.
I countered.
“Look over there.”
A thin finger points to a certain place. Stella’s eyes widened.
“That one?”
There was one little boy. She felt familiar with the boy.
It looked exactly like Cadian.
“It looks like you.”
“Yes. Because it’s me, it looks like me.”
I chuckled. memory. It is the past at the same time.
The boy, who looked to be around 10 years old, did not move when he made eye
contact with me. I approached the boy and spoke to him.
“hi n
There was no answer coming back. Are memories just memories?
Stella twisted the little boy’s hair. It was made of mana, but because it
existed, it was tangible.
“It’s amazing. You look like this when you were young.”
“There’s a picture of Stella as a child, too.”
A girl who looked even more lazy and indolent than she was now, and who looked
bored, had been staring at this place since earlier. Stella furrowed the corners
of her eyes.
“It’s a real woman’s childhood.”
Apparently, the past that he couldn’t remember so clearly was ‘perfectly
reproduced’.
“TI see. I see.”
Stella understood why this place was called Mysterious.
Impossible.
Incomprehensible things were unfolding here.
“Your Highness, Princess Stella.”
A wizard wearing robes approached her. I stopped him. Then the wizard reveals
his face beneath his robe.
“Cadian Wizard. Long time no see.”
He is a year-round resident of the Mystic Island, a magician buried in magic,
and also the general manager in charge of managing this Mystic Island.
“Professor Slant.”
The middle-aged wizard, dressed neatly and tidy enough to make one feel paranoid
while wearing a robe with patterns on the mage tower, trimmed the hem of the
robe.
“Yes. Are you here again to chew the cud?”
I shook my head at once.
“no.”
“Is that so? It’s amazing. I thought you would come to remember the dead again,
so I sent you an invitation.”
Memories are memories.
Memories are memories.
Because there is a memory, it is dismissed as a memory.
Memories of the past act as memories here.
Yes… This was also a place where you could see the dead if you remembered
them.
So, I had visited once before, and Slant seemed to remember that time.
Slant’s eyes met Stella’s. He greeted me with dry lips.
“Nice to meet you, Her Highness Princess Stella. I am the 8th floor wizard of
the Mage Tower and the general manager of the Mysterious Island. My name is
Slant.”
“W Nice to meet you too.”
Spreading his arms wide, Slant said. He was lively and had only a few words to
convey.
“Starting this evening, many academic societies, magic towers, and wizards are
scheduled to hold lectures and presentations. Originally, there would be
restrictions on lectures and presentations, but Princess Stella doesn’t have
that, so you can just listen to whatever you want.”
“You mean everything?”
“Anything. You can listen.”
Forced to do something, he exchanged a few words with Stella and disappeared.
I’ve thought about it for a long time, but he’s like a typhoon.
I looked at his back for a while, then asked Stella.
“Where do you plan to visit first?”
Stella looked around. Most of them are full of lectures on magic.
By the time I narrowed my eyes in boredom. She saw a place that looked pretty
interesting.
“Cadian.”
“yes?”
“There’s a historical theater over there.”
What she chose was a theater made of magic.
It is also reproduced by memories.
A very special theater where you can see ‘what really happened’ vividly right in
front of your eyes.
