Tensei Saki ga Shoujo Manga no Shiro Buta Reijou datta Chapter 145

"Are you fine? As soon as we heard your screams, we rushed over here to figure out what happened. For some reason, there are any soldiers on guard along our way."

"Merrill and Britney! Have you any injuries? Come here!"

Merrill cried, "Onee-sama~!" Then She threw herself into Angela's arms.

Then Princess Angela, as her elder sister, tried to comfort her.

Despite the frequent conflicts, Angela had become a princess who cared about her family members. On the other side, Merrill also gradually accepted some suggestions of her sister and brother.

Emirya and Angela ordered soldiers to arrest those assassins who were knocked down to the ground.

"I truly appreciate your help. But I think, they didn't act like assassins."

"Perhaps their targets were daughters from noble families, so they just dispatched some ordinary people to assassinate. After all, there are many assassins at different levels."

Emirya answered as she watched the soldiers to leave.

"What's more, I think they have been warned not to kill you. If not, it's impossible to ask us to meet their requests. So they just wanted to capture you as hostages."

"Have these assassins really showed us mercy?"

"Yeah… But I felt they became anxious for Briney's extraordinary combat skills. They didn't even care about the task anymore when we arrived here."

From the beginning, it was destined that Merrill and I wouldn't be killed like that in the manga.

Right, they had just wanted to capture us as hostages to threaten others.

(But these assassins really wanted to kill us in the manga. What elements made the difference? Right, the existence of Angela's party.)

I became aware of this possibility.

The so-called Angela's party was generally referred to the first princess and the bad noblemen around her.

Of course, Nora and Britney were also included in this party.

If it was Princess Angela who ordered those bad noblemen to do that, then these assassins would definitely kill Merrill, rather than capture her as a hostage.

Actually, Angela's party also tried to expel Merrill from the castle in the manga. Angela told her, 'No door for a civilian in this castle.' Then the story began with the treatment to refuse her to enter this castle.

When many people ate together, they added a lot of chilies to her dishes, which made her feel extremely ashamed. Once Merrill screamed when she found a cockroach in her bed.

Furthermore, they employed some noblemen to lure Merrill, got her dresses ripped, or cooperated with a profiteer to sell her in a slave auction. They treated Merrill in a cruel manner, over and over again.

That was also the reason why Britney was sentenced to death.

Incidentally, after Angela managed to kill her brother Marlow who was a thorn in her side, then she planned to succeed to the throne. In order to eliminate her father, the King of this country, she tried to poison the King.

In the manga, Angela became the leader of those bad noblemen. I doubted that it was those bad noblemen who abetted Angela to poison her own father. After all, as long as Angela managed to succeed to the throne, then they could do whatever they want!

Angela commanded Britney to put the poison into King's food in the manga. Sure enough, Angela didn't tell her the truth, so she considered it as a kind of nutrition.

However, for a person like Britney, the only thing they cared about was delicious foods. So, Britney had some dishes before putting the 'nutrition' given by Angela into the food.

Moreover, the dishes were so delicious that she had lots of them.

After that, she just put the dishes back carelessly.

The King was poisoned to death, then the investigators found something suspicious from the presentation of the dishes. At last, they arrested a suspect, Britney.

Then Britney, who had been abandoned by Angela, was sentenced to death.

By the way, after her sentence, Earl Hakusu's family rapidly declined. Finally, their territory was occupied by the Royal family.

After this matter, the story had taken a sharp turn. Merrill had built a stronger relationship with her two brothers, and Angela went to a cloister. 

There were no royal members alive, so Merrill became the new Queen. It was a happy ending, wasn't it?

(For the new Queen, it would be better if the turbulent situation in the north of this country could be settled.)

Thinking of my end, I cared more about Earl Hakusu's territory.

(No, it takes place after my death in the manga… So I have no way out.)

However, different from the happy ending, the story in the second manga would unfold in a different way.

Especially for the North Country, they had long expected for the civil strife and conflict. Once Lucas didn't join hands with Merrill, it was the time for others to seize power.

(While there was no existence of Angela's party in reality, so it wouldn't develop like that. Take it easy and it won't… Perhaps so.) 

The situation of Marlow and others worried me.

(Ryuze onii-sama and Ricardo, please protect yourselves and don't get injured.)

I gazed out of the window, with a deep feeling of unease.
