Reincarnated Princess Wishes To Avoid Death
chapter-107

Princess Mia Tries the Mushrooms!

Early in the morning the next day, Mia and Sion started walking along the river. Rather than blindly entering the woods, they bet on the possibility of a village near the riverside.

And it’s a little scary if there is no water.

From the previous timeline, she knows the suffering of thirst due to lack of drinking water. So, Mia decided this route, and Sion agreed with it. But …

This… this may have… have been a… a mistake.

She regretted this with every laboured breath. The riverbank was littered with large rocks and walking over them proved to be extremely exhausting. Mia did try to improve her stamina in case of emergency, but there is still a limit. The road was a little too harsh for a girl’s feet. Sweat spilled from Mia’s forehead, and her cheeks were slightly dyed red. Her knees started shaking and they could give way anytime.

“Are you okay? Princess Mia”

Sion reached out from the top of a rock. He was offering her his hand to help her up the rock.

“Thank you, I’m saved, Prince Sion”

While wiping the sweat off her forehead, Mia looked around. Unfortunately, there was nothing like a village in sight.

“I wish there was something we can ride. Even if it’s not a carriage, but at least a horse.”

“Oh yeah. I almost forgot that you could ride a horse.”

Sion shrugged a little and then said.

“But unfortunately, you won’t find a wild horse, maybe a wolf …”

“Well! Prince Sion, can you ride a wolf !?”

Mia remembers that in the manuscript written by Elise, there was a a prince riding a wolf. She stared at Sion, and he couldn’t supress his laughter anymore.

“I can’t ride a wolf as you expect me to. Princess Mia, you can be gullible sometimes.”

“Now!”

She gave him an angry glare while puffing her cheeks out.

Stupid Sion! Just because I’m a little naïve about these things…. I really hate this guy! His guts and everything!

However, she couldn’t antagonize her only ally now. So, she decided to direct her anger elsewhere.

“… It’s all because of the guys who attacked that carriage.”

Upon hearing her words, Sion frowned slightly.

“What’s wrong, Prince Sion”

“No, I think it’s a little strange.”

“What do you mean?”

“Sure, the Kingdom of Remno is now a politically uncertain and dangerous zone, so it’s no wonder that the caravan is attacked. But at that time, we were attacked by regular bandits.”

“Now that you say it, I remember someone saying assassins.”

“Yes. They were thugs with specialized combat training. Needless to say, those kinds of guys aren’t the ones that suddenly show up just because the public order is in decline.”

“Well! So do you mean to say that someone hired those assassins to take our lives?”

Sion shrugs and shakes his head.

“Maybe not all of us. Maybe just I or you. Well, I suppose Miss Tiona as well…”

In any case, the carriage was full of dignitaries. It may not be surprising if the assassins were sent…

“But no one should know that we’re in that carriage… Does that mean that information was leaked from somewhere?”

“It would be natural to think so, but …”

Sion went silent. Apparently, he remembers what was in that carriage and is thinking about various things.

On the other hand, Mia…

Well, if this guy is doing the thinking, I should not think about it myself.

Judging from that, she started looking for something that could be eaten instead.

I can’t catch fish. I wonder what kind of herbs grow along this riverbank. Hmm… is that…?

A mushroom growing by the riverside caught her eye. This one was bright red like a burning flame. It looked beautiful and caught Mia’s attention. However, the words of her head chef came back to her, “Your Highness, it’s okay to be interested in wild food. But take note of one thing. Mushrooms are very difficult to distinguish between poisonous and non-poisonous. It’s dangerous if you’re not an expert. So, it’s better not to touch it. ”

“That’s a mushroom, a water mushroom … isn’t it?”

Recalling the advice, Mia retracts her hand as she was about to touch it.

But if you think about it, I’m an expert, right? I’ve done lots of research about how to survive in the forest…

After spending the night in the woods, a strange self-confidence grew in Mia. She had a strange self-confidence that she can tell the difference between being edible and poisonous plants. This came from her guts, which just happen to be empty at the moment.

“It looks so beautiful. It’s decided. We can eat it.”

Then Mia reached out to pick it again.

“It’s better if you don’t pick it up!”

A voice suddenly called out which made Mia jumped up.

Stop! The author’s HP is already zero!
