Reincarnated Princess Wishes To Avoid Death
chapter-114

Princess Mia is Kidnapped!

It is easy to follow the logic as to why the king hesitates to send his precious Diamond Legion to the battle… but for Princess Mia to realize all of these in an instant… She never fails to impress.

Sion looked at Mia with a renewed admiration and awe.

Mia was waving to the merchant with a seemingly airheaded smile. There wasn’t a glimmer of intelligence in her eyes. If Sion has to describe her current expression, it would be like she’s stup…

No, why say something that is not true. I’ve heard that the wise lion hides its claws, but this is the first time I have seen that saying action. This appearance is surely nothing but acting.

“Thank you for your help. Please give my best regards to Muzic!”

“Will do, young lady. I hope you can find your friends too.”

After giving the merchant a few more extra enthusiastic waves, Mia turned to Sion.

“By the way, it’s nice to finally be in a town, but what are we going to do now?”

Mia asked with a wide-eyed expression that seems to be empty of thoughts. Even knowing that it is an act, it could have still deceived Sion.

“Hmm… Let’s see. I want to meet and join up with Keithwood and others for the time being.”

A meeting place was decided in advance for events like this. When they asked the merchant earlier, it was about half a day by wagon to their pre-determined meeting place.

“Fortunately, there are regular passenger wagons, but …”

Sion muttered with a hint of dismay. Seeing this, Mia couldn’t resist. A mischievous grin appeared on her face…

“Oh my, Sion. Don’t tell me you don’t have any money.”

“All the gold is with Keithwood.”

“My, my!”

She put her hand on her lips in an exaggerated expression of astonishment before giggling.

“You’re such a child. Well, I guess it can’t be helped.”

Mia crouched down and pulled down her white socks. It revealed her white calves. On which were glued three silver coins on each leg.

“That is……?”

“Emergency funds. I tried putting them in my shoes, but found it hard to walk.”

The attempt almost gave her blisters.

“But why in such a place?”

“Of course, so it won’t be easily stolen!”

It was a Mia-like preparation based on her past experience.

Mia, who fell into the hands of the Revolutionary Army on the previous timeline, was robbed of all the jewelries and money she had. Even the gold coin bag that she thought was carefully hidden.

“Oh, I don’t have anything anymore! Really!”

“Liar, then jump!”

Jangle.

“I hear them jangling you liar! Now hand them over.”

She never thought coins can be found through such a method.

Who would have known such a method exists… It’s pretty clever, but still… that got on my nerves.

That ridiculous smile of the Revolutionary Army soldier… just remembering it made me angry.

Anyway, that was the last time I would fall for such a trick. I need to put them in a place that won’t make a sound…. A place that they don’t easily check but is easily accessible… it has to be inside my socks, right?

Even if Mia doesn’t normally think, she still does use her brain every now and then. Moreover, she was fortunate that she was collecting foreign coins so that she can escape smoothly if a revolution occurs. These has been collected by her trusty aide Ludwig who thought that Mia had begun investigating foreign currencies to widen her geopolitical knowledge. He was wrong of course. But point is that Mia had the forethought to bring them with her.

Actually, I wanted to give one of these to Muzic as a thank you…

Mia carefully stroked the silver coins on her palm, and then…

“Is this enough for a wagon ride?”

“Always ready for anything huh?”

Sion looked at the silver coins in Mia’s hand and tilted his head slightly. In an uncertain voice…

“That’s probably enough…”

They are after all, a prince and a princess of a great countries. There is no way to that they would know the market price of a wagon ride. For Mia, when something happens and she has to escape from the imperial capital, her loyal retainer Anne or Ludwig will accompany her. So, she didn’t bother personally checking the market price of a carriage fare.

“May I leave the negotiations to you?”

“Yes please… It would be terribly ungentlemanly of me if I let the lady do everything.”

That being said, Sion was clearly lacking in confidence. Mia found this rare display of vulnerability surprisingly endearing.

Ufufu, even the perfect superhuman guy has things he is not good at.

Mia watched Sion’s back as he went off to negotiate with the coachman…

Suddenly, felt being Mia lifted from behind.

“Huh? Hmmpff !?”

The next moment, her mouth was covered with a slightly damp cloth. Mia fluttered her limbs, but immediately after that, a sweet scent drifted from the cloth and her mind began to fog.

“Hurry up, before the other kid comes back.”

Even with her addled brain, she could feel being carried away.

M…my… Am I… am I in trouble?

“Mia !? Damn, you guys!”

She felt like she could hear Sion’s voice in the distance…

Everything faded into black as Mia lost her consciousness.
