Alma POV 5/17

I looked at the window of my room. Now that Elred was here I wondered if the guards would let us go out with the pretext, I was going on a date outside with him. I don ’t know if they would eat that pretext, but maybe Rose who has moved almost to tears as she saw these two little elven children playing to be a future married couple could help us. If she could, she would easily be able to convince the guards.

She had a lot of authority despite being a maid, mostly because she was the Head Maid and also the one that served the Princess directly, the princess ’ favorite maid had her authority over other lesser servants after all.

After having enough tea and cookies, I decided it was time to have our small ”date ” only an invention of mine so we could go out of this cursed castle, the place I ’ve been confined to for YEARS since I was born. I can ’t believe I landed into an Isekai, but I ’ve not been able to get out of my freaking house not even once… this really frustrated me, so today that was definitely changing.

I was thankful that my brainwashed parents were not around for the moment, so I decided to get moving and start my ”exploration ” plan with Elred as my ticket outside (I hope).

”Come, let ’s go out, I am bored of being here, ” I said.

”Huh? A-Alright! ”

Elred quickly followed me over, he was already a very obedient boy, good.

I held his hand for extra corny points, so he got even redder, and we walked towards the gate that led outside the castle, into the gardens that I had never visited but I wished I could visit.

The two guards greeted us with Rose behind us.

”We are going on a date, so move over, ” I said.

”Eh? P-Princess-sama? ”

”Is that…? ”
