Chapter 53: Amnesia?


"I have no memory loss" Ava denied.


"Oh, I feel sorry for the forgotten Duke Frost," Rai was still empty-minded.


"I don't know anyone you call Duke Frost," again, Ava denied.


"Although the Princess's face is rarely seen, your love story is very popular." Rai was clearly not listening, the man's ears seemed to be deadlocked by his own delusion.


Ava could have left Rai just like that, letting him create a drama theater script in her mind. However, if Eve's identity is indeed that of an Edodale royal princess, all of her actions will be followed by more complex issues than they should be.


First, Ava is ignorant, not curious, and does not want to get an overflow of responsibilities and obligations as a royal family.


Secondly, even though Ava and Eve had identical faces, the dozens of old scars on her body would not be suitable to be found in the entire body of the Princess.


Third, Ava is indeed an expert in acting, but completely changing her identity as someone else is certainly not easy, there will be many holes captured by people close to Eve such as attitude, memory, memory, and the taste is not the same between the two of them. After all, she doubted Eve would volunteer to help her in pretending.


Fourth, just thinking about it is tired, even though the life that guarantees luxury as part of the royal family is very tempting.


Finally, Ava did not want to waste any longer in this dimension,


"My name is Rina Hoffman, an ordinary hunter from a small village of the Igoceolon Kingdom."


"Sure, sure." Despite nodding, Rai looked completely unchanged, still holding firm to his false beliefs.


If the defense does not work, Ava will start attacking. "Looking at you who can misidentify people, you and the Princess are not very close."


For a moment, Rai stopped moving, completely not expecting that statement. "W-what?"


"This Princess seems to be a person of high status, so it could just be you who feel close to her."


"Y-well, for that, I've never spoken directly, you're not wrong." Suddenly using my-you subject?


"Why do you know me?"


"U-um." Ava broke it down.


"In addition, wouldn't it be dangerous if you were caught talking to a Princess as if she was just the main exhibition of a drama? Then, on what basis do you conclude this-that without ascertaining its truth? Isn't defamation of the royal family punishable by it?"


Only the whirring of the wind accompanied by the friction of the leaves filled the atmosphere of the frozen awkwardness. Finally, Rai listened, and what he said was digested.


"I'm not the person you think I am. I don't know you either. I don't have amnesia."


"Amnesia?" That term does not exist in this world apparently.


"Forgot a memory, I mean. By the way, you never introduced yourself, did you?" Ava already knew, but she asked just to avoid any suspicion regarding her skill.


Rai's two hands crossed, the man's depressed lips formed a thin line, while the corners of his eyes sharpened. The man's cotton swabs were open, covering his face from his chin to his nose. Defensives. Rai's attitude is inversely proportional to whatever he did three minutes ago.


"If you're not the Princess, then what's the point of living?"


Wow, Ava understands that Rai is upset with her now, but for such an extreme sentence?


"You'd better talk carefully with me, '" Rai warned coldly.


"I keep talking formally, sir." Is correct. Ava until now chose the word raw and formal, intonation is also polite, only the content in her statement that needs to be refined.


But Rai was unable to point to this as evidence of the source of his anger. Because he began to believe that his slack was unfounded. It was true that he immediately jumped to the conclusion that the girl in front of him was Eve Weinhamer. It's true that the girl kept convincing me that she was just misunderstanding. It is true that he was not too close to the Princess, his face which was rarely seen at the royal party as well as just once he had seen, perhaps Rai only remembered the characteristics of Princess Weinhamer's appearance in general, short black hair and dark black eyes. So ... he may be wrong. His ego was hurt by the conclusion. He, a 30-year-old man, had a fight with a woman 10 years younger than him over this matter?


Whatever it is, Ava manages to instigate Rai.


He only hoped that this topic would not appear again. Yet it seemed almost impossible considering their identical faces. It would be much more difficult to convince others who knew Eve the Princess of Edodale well, not distant acquaintances like Rai.


"Why did you get into the woods like this?" Avoid without apologizing? Ava doesn't mind.


"Hunting, a little sport. If you haven't heard, just yesterday my broken body was crushed by a giant frog. Bandages make me stiff." Normal answer. And boring based on Rai's standards.


"Then, what have you done to Hao? To the extent that he was heartbroken to the point of being drunk."


"Oh, I was also wondering, because one day he came, and then immediately proposed."


"Applying?!" This is just Rai heard.


"Perhaps if I don't reject him first, I'm sure Hao will. The man was already kneeling with one leg in front of me." Of course Ava was a little overdone, but Rai seemed to like the idea.


"That boy fell in love fast and seriously, huh?" rai muttered to himself, secretly inserting the information into the list of boos aimed at Hao.


Ava caught the change in Rai's expression. He's no longer bullshit.


As Ava guessed, the man liked gossip and dramatic stories.


So he will feed Rai's imagination with an interesting story. "Hao if drunk is also very .. wild, fortunately there are not many people around here."


"Ah, right, right, that brat can't control his temperament at all, let alone while drunk."


"And also, even though Hao very boldly expressed feelings when the first day met, he was utterly lame in seducing, his body always pecked every time I touched him."


Laughter can be heard from behind the sakura fan. "That's a shame, as far as I know you're the second woman Hao's ever liked."


"Both?"


"Ah, there was another one, the blonde girl he met at the gate and at the bar when we were in Englerock. But this one romance story should be dashed because Hao can't see the woman anymore, so take it easy."


Wait, the blonde girl he met is remembered and in the town bar Englerock? Isn't that ... Ava while in disguise?


"Eh, why shut up? Jealousy?"


What jealousy? By yourself? Ava shook her head while smiling, "Poor hao, it's been broken twice already."


Rai liked Rina's smile, as if the girl was scoffing at Hao's feelings in her viewpoint.


He is interested in this woman.
