Chapter 12
The first to speak to Kagen was a woman.
“Weren’t you a slave to the escort? I remembered that you seemed to be exceptionally good at wielding a sword, but why were you assigned to the stable?”
It all started from then. From the time when a slave boy who was good at swords came into her indierent eyes, who was of the same age as hers.
“Princess, never go to Mt. Rinobe. Even after seeing that hideous monster castle, would you still keep climbing Mt. Rinobe alone?”
Seventeen-year-old Floris listened to the nanny and didn’t take her eyes o the book she was looking at. Floris, the eldest daughter of the Duke of Neviev, grew up being praised as the ‘perfect noble girl’ from the age of seven. White skin, dense facial features– there was no fault of any kind. From her wealth of knowledge and abundant culture to her perfect pronunciation and grammatical tone.
In addition, although not friendly, her arrogant tone, which cuts out the necessary words, made her stand out more. “I told you. In Mt. Rinobe There are crazy monsters that take away rulers!”
“I heard it when I was too young, but I don’t really feel it right now.”
Floris slowly turned the pages and answered indierently, and the nanny’s voice rose as high as her calmness. “If it’s just to scare the children, why don’t any women climb Mount Rinobe? It must be full of Mushrooms and herbs.”
The nanny folded her arms as if frustrated. “The stories I told the princess when I was young are not all nonsense. It is said that 100 years ago, the wizard Thrash, who was crazy about women, was frustrated with his finite life and made a contract with the devil. It is said that the devil stopped him aging according to his will, but in return took away humanity. So that place that was originally a wizard’s castle became a monster’s castle… “

The nanny trembled once, pointing to the black castle in the distance. Floris glanced at the dismal citadel hanging from the cli’s edge, and then returned her gaze back to the book.
“It is said that only greed for women is left for ugly monsters. Monsters are sensitive to blood, so if a woman sheds blood at Mt. Rinobe… they flew away and kidnapped her to her castle.”
“Then I won’t get hurt on Mount Rinobe.”
“If you trip over a rock, get swept away by a branch, or have a nosebleed because you are out of luck… Miss, why are you going to Mt. Rinobe like that? No one is going!”
“There is no one there, so I only go there very occasionally. I’m tired of other people telling me what I know that no matter how much the nanny say will never leave me alone.”
Floris eventually closed the book as if annoyed. The nanny opened her axe’s eyes saying that she had to watch over her again.
“The story of Gatrashu, the monster, is completely dierent from the fairy tales I used to tell when I was young.”
“Fairytale…..”
“The story of the warriors who went to rescue the princess who was captured by the evil dragon. The King gave the princess as a reward to the hero who rescued his beloved daughter and lived happily ever after. Don’t you remember filling up the bookshelf by collecting only those children’s books?”
