Princess In Another World: New Story
1.

“Thank God you survived.”

“Where, me?”

“Thank you for coming back, I'm so happy. Thanks.”

“M-sorry, but, do I know you?” His gaze made me unable to say anything more, he completely forgot about me.

This is the continuation of my story, the story of Touji Ari who managed to escape the body of a girl named Iona L. Thorwn and I have lived as Iona for more than a dozen years. Then, right now I managed to get out and start my new life.

A bright morning in an old hut.

“Ari, are you awake?”

“Iona, what's up early in the morning coming here?” I've been in this world for a few days as Touji Ari, and I've been given an old hut outside this kingdom as a place to live. Actually I could have accepted Iona's offer to stay in a more decent place, but I turned it down. “You want to retrieve the documents that you gave me a few days ago?”

“Iya, is it done?”

Yes, the current one who takes care of documents or other matters related to the military is me. While Iona was only in charge of delivering the documents to me, and his other job was to stay focused on his learning as an Academy attendant. “This, at least I've finished it.”

“So, thanks.”

“Iona, how about activities in your Academy?”

“I recently joined a magic research group.”

“Magic research?”

“Iya. But since the magic was something included in the taboo, so the group was still kept secret.”

“So, then what about your other friends?”

“They also joined the magic research group.”

“So.” Stay here and just do the tasks, documents and more. That bored me a little.

“Ari, how about you go to the Academy.”

“Huh? But I don't have a letter graduating from royal school.”

“For that matter, take it easy. As long as you pass the test, you can enter without needing a graduation letter.”

“So.” I'm pretty interested in that. “Alright, besides I have no other busyness.” At least I want to go back to school, as myself.

“Then, you can take the entrance exam next week. I'm already impatient.” Iona looks pretty happy.

“Already, you better get ready to go.” soon

“Ah, true too. Then I'll see you later Ari.”

“Ya.” She went. “Haaa, Academy, yes.” I don't know what I'm going to answer when I take the entrance exam, but getting something challenging feels like it's quite exciting for me. “Good.”

Next week, just as the entrance exam is held.

I was provided with clothes by Iona as well as some books and notes that she said would be useful. ‘It looks like Iona has also started to change.’

I entered the Academy area. This place is very large and there are also a lot of people here. ‘It looks like this place is indeed a pretty interesting place.’

Exam time begins.

‘Huh?’ I was surprised to see the question I was asked. ‘This, easy.’ I've learned everything before and it's easy.

After finishing work, outside the room.

“Ari, how about the test?” Suddenly Iona approached me. “Yes, even so I'm sure that you will be very easy to answer. You know I used to be like that too, it feels about it very easy.”

“You already know that, so there's no need for me to explain anymore.” When I look around, everyone looks at me. ‘It looks like I've attracted a lot of attention.’ I slowly started to leave. “Iona, I have business. If the test results are out, send it to me.”

“Eh, b-alright.”

A few moments later.

“Keep.” Some people are blocking my way.

“Hey hey, watch your commoners talk.” Judging from his appearance as well as his speech style, he was a noble. But…

“You want nobility or prince though, this is an Academy. Social status has no effect here, so..” I clenched my hand. “If there is a fight in this area of the Academy, it will only be referred to as an ordinary fight. Do you understand what it means.”

“A-what do you want to do!!”

“When again a commoner could hit a noble so calmly without fear of punishment.” When I say that, the person here looks at me. ‘It looks like I'm back to attracting attention again.’ I slowly moved away. “You know, life in the academy is not as smooth as you can think.’

Old shack.

Afternoon.

“Ari.” Iona came here. “You graduated with perfect grades, as I expected.”

“Haa, perfect value, yes.”

“Ari, you look dissatisfied.”

“No, I'm quite satisfied with the result.”

“Oh yes, the teacher also said something. But since I don't really understand I ignore it.”

“Haa, you better not ignore something. At least if it is an important thing.”

“Ari, I heard you got trouble from the nobles.”

“No problem. There are no nobles there anyway.”

“Huh? What do you mean?”

“Limit between the academy and also the outside world, that's what I mean.”

“I still don't understand.”

“I mean, if outside the academy you are a princess but if you have entered the academy area you are an ordinary student.”

“Ah, so. You're using a sentence that's hard for me to understand.”

“Then, I'm sorry.”

“T-it's okay.” The atmosphere became silent for a while, until Iona finally started the conversation again. “Ari, don't you want to live in a more comfortable place than this?”

“Once, yes.”

“Haa, why are you putting on such a sad face. That face doesn't suit you.”

“You always refused, I can't imagine you sleeping in a place like this.”

“No need to imagine. Never mind, it's not that today you have a diistana.”

“Ahh, true too. I almost forgot about it. Then, Ari I go first.”

“Ya.” Iona's gone. “Hmm, what will I do next.” Ever since I made that choice, I don't have a purpose anymore.

Earlier.

After leaving Iona's body, I met someone. He gave me a choice, to live in this world or to go where I should be. Yes, because I thought Iona would not be able to do anything else after what I gave the instructions I gave was exhausted, I chose to be in this world. At least to accompany her, and because of that, I lost my purpose.

“Haa, this is troublesome. Even so, this is my choice. What I started, I had to finish. Yes, although my prisipku it does not apply to Iona.” Today, passed by with nothing else happening other than what had happened earlier.

Tomorrow.

A clear morning, that's what I expected. “Hmm, today's wind is quite strong. I doubt this place will survive if it gets worse than this.” Since last night, the wind started to blow strong.

“Ari.”

“Huh? Iona, what are you doing? Why are you here, not today there is a task that you must complete?”

“Hehe, I finished it yesterday. So today I can be free.”

“So.”

“Despite that, today's wind is very strong, yes. Not as usual.”

“Possible seasons will change, or maybe something else is happening.”

“So.”

“Changes like this are common, maybe after this there will be a storm.”

Sfx: Lightning sound.

Suddenly the sound of heavy rain was heard. “Eh, right.”

“You forgot to bring..”.

“Huh?”

“No, forget. You've always been like that. Even so, this will be bad.”

“Huh? Was bad? Why?”

“If anyone finds us both in this place, there will be an uproar in the corner of the palace.”

“Attempt?”

“A princess who stays in one place with a stranger. Maybe it's like that.”

“Ari, it's overrated. Aww.” I clenched his forehead.

“It would be very bad. Chances are you'll get into trouble about it, and for me, maybe I'll go to jail for harassing a princess.”

“Ehh, why can it be so. Wouldn't you not be able to do it.”

“Everyone's view is different. I would be grateful if only imprisoned for that, worse things maybe I will be thrown away or other things that are creepy.”

“Is it that bad?”

“Anxication of a princess from a kingdom is a very big matter.”

“Despite that, I just need to explain that you..”.

“Haa, I don't know what you're going to explain but for sure. No one will hear you, everything is already recorded in the royal regulations.”

“Once, if it will harm you. I'll go.”

“Haa, you stay here. If you're cold, there's a blanket there you can use.”

“How about you?”

“I'll go to place Dravin.”

“Wait, instead it is near the mountains and it is also quite far from here.”

“At least not as far as the trip to Groem.”

“But..”.

“Already, I'll be back when this storm is over.” I'm goin.

A while after that.

“Haa, the weather will not improve anytime soon. I'd better hurry up.” The extremely heavy rain was accompanied by a flash of lightning, indicating that this would not end in a short time.

Meanwhile.

“This, the blanket Ari used. There is the scent of Ari's body, and warm.” Iona is enveloping her body which is starting to get cold with a blanket. “Ari, is she okay in the middle of a big storm like this.”

After taking a long time.

Near the mountains.

In front of me was a huge cave. “Haa, finally arrived.” My body was already shivering with cold. I slowly began to enter the cave, the deeper into this cave the temperature became warmer until at last. “Dravin, are you asleep?” No answer from him.

A dragon who helped me several times, I gave him the name Dravin because it sounded cool to me.

“I will hitchhike here as long as the storm continues, after which I will return.” Dravin breathes out heat that makes the temperature here warmer. “Thanks.” I slowly started to close my eyes. “Maybe after this, I'll have a fever.” A little murmuring, and after that I fell asleep.

Somewhere.

“Chairman, we managed to use that high-level magic, in this way we can guarantee that the thing that we had planned all along will succeed.”

“It's good. We will repay the things that the princess did to us, take the slaves we have worked so hard to get. He has to pay for it.”

A little dispute, at the beginning.
