A Bad Example of an Adult

A bonfire crackled on the riverbank. The flames that dimly illuminate the darkness of the night were warm; and Mia involuntarily let out a sigh of relief.

“For the time being, we won’t have to worry about catching colds with this.”

The Kingdom of Remno is not in the frigid north. Nor was it a tropical country with tropical nights. If their body gets cold, they may get sick. So, they started a bonfire quickly… Well, Prince Sion did. Princess Mia was just watching.

“You surprise me. I didn’t expect you to know how to start a fire.”

“… Well, I used to go hunting. I learned a lot at that time.”

For some reason, Sion turned away. His cheeks are slightly red. It is quite understandable. They are only wearing underwear to dry their wet clothes. Sion was looking away from Mia as much as possible. He was trying his best to be a gentleman. Mia, on the other hand, was looking at Sion with her chin resting on her knees.

She was delighted with the naive reaction of Sion, who was known to be a perfect superhuman. 　Of course, it wasn’t like Mia was not ashamed as well. She was just as vulnerable to the embarrassment of being stared at by the opposite sex while only wearing her underwear. Even so, Sion is a 12- or 3-year-old boy. On the other hand, Mia’s internal age is 20 years old. No, she is 21 years old because she was already reincarnated for a year.

She was technically, an adult. This doesn’t mean she’s mature though. She enjoyed the embarrassed reaction of a little boy. All while having a creepy grin on her face. She was a bad example of an adult.

“Rather, I was more surprised. I don’t even know which wild grasses can be eaten, but you’re surprisingly knowledgeable about them. I guess it comes with being the Wisdom of the Empire.”

“Ufufu, it’s not that surprising.”

Mia says with a smug look on her face.

There was a reason for her attitude of superiority. Mia already has the experience of spending the night in the woods. It was on a timeline before, even before what happened in the Sealence Forest.

To escape the Revolutionary Army, Mia hid in the woods. At that time, there was only one unreliable maid with her.

They couldn’t secure drinking water and had no food. Wild beasts seem to be everywhere because they are far from the escorts. Moreover, her captors were already nearby, it was impossible for them to ask for help.

The maid soon flees to one of the nearby villages while cursing Mia. Mia became utterly alone in the forest. Unable to endure the darkness and loneliness of the night, thirst and hunger, Mia went out to a neighboring village. She was promptly captured there by the Revolutionary Army.

After all, there is a river nearby. It is easy to secure drinking water. Besides, Mia had already researched in books what kind of edible food was in the forests of this continent. Mia, who is eager to escape from the guillotine, now has the knowledge that it is no exaggeration to say comparable to that of a survival specialist.

She didn’t have to worry too much for the time being. Especially with Prince Sion at her side.

Mia smiles while a sense of security that fills her heart.

Any bystander could say that Sion, being a boy, would have a hard time fighting against a bear or a wolf. Sadly, there is no nearby bystander to burst Mia’s bubble.

Mia thought while gazing at the profile of Sion, who was looking toward the forest. When she saw the beautiful face of her enemy, she could not resist the urge of being a little mean to him.

“Hey, Prince Sion, I have something to ask, but only if it is okay?”

Mia opened her mouth.

“Sure. Ask away. I’ll answer if I can…”

For a moment, Sion turns his face towards Mia before immediately turning away again.

Mia said in a quiet voice, keeping her eyes on Sion.

“If your friend and schoolmate, Prince Abel, was involved in the oppression of his people, would you kill him?”

“……that is”

“I heard that you are as noble as Rafina. You are a person of integrity Prince Sion, that’s why I want to ask you. Even if you know the other person and he is a friend, if he is doing evil, will you condemn him with a sword?”

This was a question that have been in Mia’s mind for a long time. In the previous timeline, the Revolutionary Army, led by Prince Sion and Tiona, took her life. To some extent, she understood why it happened. She could see the wrath of the hungry people. Together with their other grievances, they have enough motive to execute her.

But that was then. Now, they are people that she knows. In fact, to some extent, can be considered friends. This is why she is really curious about how Sion felt now. Was it the same feeling when he watched that terrible blade descended upon her neck?
