Chapter 7: July Night Danger Moonlit Night Concert - The Lying Princess and the Blind Prince

That night. The two of them came to the flower field again, because all the flowers they had collected for the first time were given to the hedgehog rats, and the princess wanted to give the prince a bouquet of the most beautiful flowers. It was late at night, and there was no other light except the lantern in the prince's hand and the moonlight, which was obscured by the clouds, and the fields of flowers illuminated by the moonlight shone like a dream. The princess chose a bouquet of flowers that she thought was the most beautiful, picked them and handed them to the prince, who held out his hand, and the princess took the prince's hand. The prince also shyly shook the princess's hand. The warm body temperature came from the palm of the prince's hand, and the princess at this moment left behind her heart that she was a monster and was afraid of the prince lying, how much she wanted to let time stand here.

That's right, the princess at this time was careless.

Suddenly, a ray of moonlight shone through the clouds, shining on the two of them, and the moonlight shone only for a short time, and the hand of the princess who held the prince changed back to the original wolf's hand, although it was only for a moment, but for the prince, it was enough to evoke terrible memories. The touch that wrapped the prince's wolf fur for a moment was indeed scratching his eyes, and the hand that was still holding his wrist suppressed the fear that he almost screamed. Why is that? Why did the princess's hand become the same as that monster's?

The prince couldn't believe it in his heart, but the princess's soft hand that he held did become a monster's hand.

"Princess, are you a monster?!" The prince shook off the princess's hand and stepped back far away.

"No, no, Prince, not what you think!" The princess tried her best to explain, but the prince could not listen.

"Princess, you—don't come here!" The prince continued to retreat, and he had no idea that there was a cliff behind him.

"Prince! Dangerous! ”

The princess pounced on the prince, who had stepped on the air, and finally grabbed the prince's hand, and the lantern in the prince's hand fell off the cliff.

"Prince, give me the other hand too, I won't be able to hold it!" The prince, who heard this, just lowered his head and remained motionless.

"Princess, are you lying?"

"What are you talking about, what are you talking about? Don't talk about this, you wait, I'll pull you now. But the weak princess had no strength to pull the prince up, and even her thin arms trembled with exertion.

"Princess, are you really a monster?" The prince asked stubbornly, looking up.

"No, it's really not, it's your delusion, you must have encountered a misunderstanding!" Although the princess knew that if she turned back into a wolf, it would be easy to pull the prince up, but she didn't want the prince to know her true appearance anyway, so she could only continue to lie at this time.

"Please, prince, give me that hand too!" The princess grabbed the prince by one hand with all her might, but the prince still did not say anything and kept his head down.

Unfortunately, the sky cleared, and the moonlight shone mercilessly on the two people on the edge of the cliff. The transformation magic of the princess, whose whole body was wrapped in moonlight, was completely unraveled, and the lie was exposed, turning back into a wolf. "This, this, no, not what you think." The princess's hand in his own hand turned into a wolf's hand twice in a row, and the prince's suspicion turned into firmness. "Why are you lying to me......"

At this time, the wolf had no excuse to lie

"Prince...... Me, right ......"

"Big liar!!"

"Huh?!"

"Let go! You ruthless monster who cheats feelings! ”

For the wolf, this was the last thing he wanted to hear from the prince's mouth, and this sentence pierced deep into the wolf's heart, making her chest ache, her breathing became painful, and her vision was blurred by tears, and her heart had never been so painful.

The prince's hand, which had been tightly grasped in his hand, was loosened, and the prince, who was desperately struggling, broke free from the wolf's hand and fell off the cliff.

The wolf could only stare at the falling prince, kneeling on the ground in a daze, watching the prince disappear into the dark forest, thinking of nothing, just in a daze. How long has it been? Finally, an ominous red light flickered in the dark forest. In the blink of an eye, the forest was dyed red, and the lantern that fell off the cliff lit the forest!

Hearing the sound of the trees crackling and burning, the wolf came to his senses, the prince was in danger! I'm going to save him! Almost without thinking, she rushed down the cliff like an arrow to the woods where the prince had fallen, and below was the center of the forest, where the trees and shrubs were the thickest and tallest, and perhaps the prince was still alive. But when she ran down the mountain, the sight made her cover her mouth with her hands again and gasp. The flames engulfed the surrounding trees, and the fire continued to grow. The wolf saw the fire burning in front of her, and the instinct of fear of the fire kept her from moving.

"It's horrible! It's scary! Yes, it will be roasted......" Her whole body trembled, and her tears flowed, but the prince's death was even more terrible, and if he didn't save him, no one would save him. It is impossible for a blind and weak prince to escape the fire. Prince, though you say that I am a ruthless monster who cheats feelings, but ...... I like you, it has nothing to do with what you do to me! Please wait for me, I will save you!

"Prince——! Prince——! "While fighting with fear, the wolf's heart plunged into the forest of fire. Running from one side to the other, the billowing smoke almost suffocated the wolf that was moving at great speed, and also blocked her vision, and finally the wolf, running with all his might in the burning forest, finally found the prince. The prince was trapped in a burning tree and was about to be engulfed in flames. Lying on the ground with his head in his hands, desperately shouting for help.

"It's hot! It's hot! Help me! ”

In order to save the trapped prince, the wolf rushed into the flames desperately, grabbed the prince and protected him on his chest, and used his body as a barrier to knock away the hot and burning trees. Although the scorching flames burned the wolf's fur, as long as the prince under him was okay, the wolf did not seem to feel any pain.

After rushing out of the flames, the wolf suddenly remembered that the prince must be frightened if he had intimate contact with the prince in the form of a wolf like this, right? She hurriedly put the prince down, and the moment she left the prince, the panic of the fire and the complicated feelings of hating the prince for herself were intertwined and came to her heart.

"My Royal Highness, Prince, I ...... I've come to save you......" said the wolf to the prince in fear. "Please no, don't be afraid, I—I really won't hurt you......

"Princess......" The prince didn't know what to say to the wolf, the princess who was so afraid of fire, now risked her life to save herself, but she was also a monster who scratched her eyes and disguised herself. The wolf didn't know what to say to the prince, and the two were just silent in the red-hot fire. At this moment, the sound of the crunch trees collapsing kept coming, and the whole forest shook violently. The wolf looked to the place where the loud noise was made, and on the far side, there was a huge monster overlooking the forest, very angry, roaring violently, and seemed to be about to stand up. I had never seen such a terrifying troll, and the small animals and monsters in the forest were very panicked and fled in the opposite direction to the troll. Among the small animals that escaped, there was also the witch's messenger, and the messenger ran while shouting something.

"Oh no! Oh no! The forest witch is angry! "Her cherished collection has been burned, so she is furious, this forest is finished! Run! ”

The two men who heard the news faced each other. "The troll...... Is it the witch of the forest? If it's a collection that is burned and angry...... It's all our fault. ”

"Yes, it should be, but how do you defeat that troll? Anyway, this forest is my home, doesn't the witch care at all? "The wolf began to think of a way to defeat the witch who had turned into a troll, but no matter how much he thought about it, he didn't think he could win against the troll." No, it's so big, if it's attacked, it's dead, it's better to run away first, maybe the witch will come to her senses after a while. Just as the wolf was about to take the prince out of here, the prince suddenly took the wolf's hand.

"Princess, let's go and apologize to the witch."

The wolf wondered if his ears had heard it wrong. "Apologize? To her? ”

"Yes, if we do something bad, we must apologize!"

"I have done something bad, so I apologize......" the wolf repeated what the prince said.

"Let's go...... Princess. ”

The wolf fell into deep thought, and finally nodded. "So...... I got it, I got it! Prince, let's go. The wolf reverted to the form of a princess, and the smoke from the fire obscured the light of the moon, and the wolf could now remain like a princess.

So in the direction of escaping with the animals, the two continued to march in the direction of the witch's mansion in the sea of fire. By this point, the troll had fully risen to its feet, letting out a terrifying, deafening roar.
