The Princess Diary
Cercei's P o V
~
I guess if there was one thing I am thankful about my life, it was the people's indifference towards my business. Unlike my brother, I am allowed to do as I please and behave the way I wanted since no one cared about the insignificant princess, to begin with.
The lack of attention I am receiving from everyone turned out to be a blessing in disguise because it presented me an opportunity to leave the palace walls unnoticed.
No one was paying me any heed inside, anyway, so I might just as well enjoy my time outside. Amongst the company of common people was where I am the happiest. Everyone seemed to like me when I am not the princess. I wished I have never been born as one.
Unlike the mundane life within the palace which was all about following the rules and presenting oneself in their best foot, never showing a bit of weakness; my experience outside the grandeur of roya life was much mor

REBIRTH: This time I will be a Witch! Folklore
Many had initially set eye at the mission regarding the Petrifying Monster. Mainly because of the handsome reward it promised. Yet only a handful decided to pursue it after finding out that the underlying task it required was too troublesome to complete.Most of the students abandoned the idea right at their first try simply because they did not have the luxury of time to take on burdensome mission when all they were after were to earn a few merits.They reckoned that with the Annual Assessment closing in, it was better to take simpler missions so they could focus more on their studies afterward.Moreover, upon doing further research, Audrey and Steve found out that there were rarely any written record about the said monster.In fact, the only text that mentioned it was the same folklore Allan was talking about and it goes without saying that this lack of information was not playing well on their adv

Just as when they were losing hope and was starting to think that they were lacking out of luck, someone useful arrived and came handy."Look who we have here?"The man said with a drawl before he leaned his shoulder at the edge of a shelf nearest to him."I wonder what brings the two of my favorites students in the library this late at night and on a weekend at that."He insinuated further and almost immediately, the two youngsters were brought to their feet to greet the other party back."Good evening, Professor Morgan."Audrey and Steve said almost in sync with one another; low and behold it was no other than their teacher who coincidentally specialized in Beasticology!"Oh come on, kiddos! No need to be so formal. There is just the three of us here."Professor Morgan insinuated with a big bright smile; a dent on h
REBIRTH: This time I will be a Witch! Trees do get stress too
After leaving the library, Audrey and Steve walked back to their dorm in silence. Initially, Audrey thought that part of the reason why the other party volunteered to go with her was that he wanted to talk to her in private.So she was totally unnerved on their first few hours at the library. Thinking that Steve would question her for her secret. However, to her surprise, Steve acted like he did not discover something about her!Only after realizing that her friend has no intention at all of asking further question regarding her secret and that they were there purely for research, did she felt relieved."I am glad you are taking my secret too well."Audrey started to strike a conversation. They were still a long way home so she believed air would soon turn awkward if they continue the silent treatment."Well, whether you are Audrey or Andrew, you are still the same you and it doe

"Our respectable school guardian, forgive us if our presence have offend you in any way. But we humbly ask for your help. We came here because we need------"Before Steve could even finish saying his piece, the oak tree already interrupted him mid sentence."Okay, just say the password. Let us just get this over, real quick."Clearly, the tree wanted to dismiss the group as soon as he could as such he no longer entertained their pleasantries and cut them straight to the point."No. You don't understand. We're not here for the exit."Allan retorted followed by Jace"We wanted you to tell us everything we need to know about the Land of Dawn. We were told you are from that place and the insight you could provide us can be useful in our next mission."Seeing that the school guardian had no desire to listen to them while they were beatin
REBIRTH: This time I will be a Witch! The then young blacksmith
One thing among the many commendable aspects of Iridos was that it was very transparent when it came to its school records. Anyone who has the time to spare in learning where, when, and how things were acquired by the school could visit the library anytime they wanted and check it for themselves. It was no exaggeration to say that every bit of information was made readily available for those who would seek it. As long as one was diligent enough, they were bound to find the answer they were looking for. Of course, Audrey's group searched thoroughly even dividing their member into smaller groups so that they could work efficiently as well as make sure that by the end of the day, no book was left unturned Thus, with the group's combined effort, it did not take that long before they finished going through every inventory record that stretched back to the founding of the school. "Found it!" Steve announced after a short while, waving a folder that contained the details regarding the b
REBIRTH: This time I will be a Witch! Work smart not hard
"I must say, it was quite an impressive feat how Mr. Hefetus was able to start his own workshop at such a young age." Audrey could not help but commend after reading a book detailing the other party's achievement and Niccoli seconded her afterward by stating his own praise. "Not only that, he also managed to make himself a household name in the field of weapon making on top of it. His business was booming and it was evident by how Steelfire Emporium was always overflowing with customers." It was no secret that Niccoli and his brother, Nike, were both sword enthusiasts. After all, it was their go-to weapon during practice combat. Their mastery of sword art granted them a fascination with fine steel. As such, it only made sense that they had already heard about the said shop. However, it was only a pity though that despite hailing as a prince from their own respective kingdom, they still could not afford to buy a weapon from Hefetus since wielding a sword forged from his shop was a
REBIRTH: This time I will be a Witch! Odd quirk
Asking around within Brujeria for the direction of how to get to their current destination, the group managed to pick up useful intel from other shop owners along the way. "He and his automatons monopolized the production of many if not all the magical items available in the market inside their Steelfire Emporium." Said one of the older folk they interrogated and judging from the way he sounded as well as his expression, it was not hard to infer that he was quite bitter about it. "Believe me when I say that guy was an oddball. Could you believe how stupid he was? I heard that the guy was once recruited to teach at Iridos but he declined the schoolmaster because he claimed that he preferred doing business to teaching." Another one interjected when she heard who they were talking about and before Audrey could even know it, more and more shop owners around the square expressed their own opinion. It was clear for all eyes to see how unhappy these people were about Hefetus. They sure h
REBIRTH: This time I will be a Witch! Insensitive as always
Audrey's group took a great deal of time, before they were even granted entry to the said shop. Apparently, people have to wait in long line just to get inside. That was how highly demanding and thriving the business was. They were never short of customers considering that Steelfire Emporium was known for its fine metal works. As a matter of fact, by the time their group were finally able to enter the shop, it was already sunset. The shop also happened to stop accepting customer around that time. This goes to say that their group would serve as the last customer of the shop. "Goodness gracious! Thank the heaven we got in before closing hours." Niccoli exclaimed while others also heaved a sigh out of relief when they realized how they almost not made it in time to the cut off. On the flip side, those other unfortunate customers who fell behind the line could only swallow their discontent and hope to get better luck tomorrow. Meanwhile, wandering their eyes around the shop the stu
