How To Survive as a Crazy Prince

At a terrifyingly high place, in a sharp flash of thundercloud, I rotated my body and used my sword like a lightning rod to load up my power.

The reaction of the sword was much better than when I dealt with Neza before. The sword body cracked violently to the point of giving goosebumps. It was a limiting output that would burn itself if it made even a slight mistake in output. The clothes made to withstand electricity exceeded their limits and were tanned black.

I gathered all the power of the thundercloud into my sword and looked at the target of attack. Lenny looked up at me blankly, not understanding what was happening and forgetting to hide.

“Goes… … ! Bicycle work island!”

I shouted out the routine I had been thinking about and swung my sword.

aaa!

A blindingly intense light followed the path of the sword. The torpedo struck down split into dozens of branches in the air and covered the wasteland without a blind spot.

“What is this… … !”

Sadly, Lenny was not able to see the lightning strike directly. Because it was such a bright light.

“I’m sorry, but this side had no intention of fighting alone from the start!”

I added my mana to the power of the artificial thundercloud made of Proud’s heat and wind, Caspal’s fog, Dimitri’s ice, and Eugene’s water to strike down, a lightning strike that was only possible because of my comrades.

That is Poongrim Volcano and Jajeonilseom. There is no shortage of introduction to the beginning of my legend.

But one troublesome thing happened.

‘… … How do I land?’

Watching the wasteland overflowing with my electric shock slowly approaching as my body crashed, I faced a great crisis.

‘Ugh. I have no choice but to try something with the magic of the earth!’

I don’t want to wear it in front of others, but it won’t be easy to see it flashing with lightning strikes now. It won’t be easy to respond to the distorted mana, but I’m sure it’ll work somehow——.

“Kheuheouk!”

Just as I was thinking, a strong shock came to my back. I was shocked to learn that Lenny had survived and intercepted it, but before long, my body floated up.

“I’m sorry, Crown Prince! It may smell like a beast, but bear with it!”

Mi-ryung was carrying me. There was no time to feel the smell of animals.

“Now, can you land well?!”

“You can!”

“Looks like it’s going to be like wrestling skills right now!”

I prepared my mind and gave strength to my whole body. And after a while, with a strong shock, Mi-ryung and I rolled on the floor excitedly. No bones were broken, but it was incredibly painful.

“Miryeong, are you okay?”

“Okay, it’s okay. But, let’s just stay down a bit… … .”

Mi-ryung, who was lying down, lifted her upper body and fell flat. I thought he died for a moment, but judging from the fact that his mana did not disappear, he seemed to have fainted from exhaustion.

Is it because it absorbed most of the shock I was going to receive? Thank you very much.

“… … There was a handmaiden. Somehow, the detection was quick.”

The moment I thought all that was left was to find Lenny’s body, a voice came from behind me.

Lenny, badly burned behind me, stood on his knees. The clothes and camouflage clothes matched to the color of the forest were almost soot, and with the red distorted body, it looked like a half-crowned corpse.

“I would have survived even if I got hit by that. Awesome.”

To be honest, I expected that the body would not be found. It is said that the emperor’s torpedo was about that much, but am I still far away? A little steam leaked.

“Elves don’t die easily. I think I will die soon.”

“indeed. I’m glad I had the chance to tell you a story before I die.”

Residual magic leaked out like smoke from various parts of Lenny’s cracked body. It is a phenomenon that occurs when a person with high magic power dies.

“okay… … . Great.”

“So what do you want to say before you die? Make sure you listen.”

With my permission, Lenny smiled as if he had waited and tried to say something.

“me… … .”

“However, please don’t talk about commonplace things like that I’m only one of many subordinates, that you shouldn’t think anything will change just because you defeated me, that the wheel of fate has already turned and you can’t stop it. I’m sick of it.”

“… … He said he would listen, but he won’t let me say anything.”

but couldn’t say It seems that he was trying to say the second example, judging from the beginning of ‘me’.

“Then let me tell you a story that will surprise you.”

Lenny was about to fall forward as if his strength was running out, but he barely supported himself on the ground.

“This is the land of the ancestors of the elves.”

“Come to think of it, that’s what you said.”

“Because you destroyed it, it has become this cursed land now.”

In terms of ability, unlike beastmen, who are on par with humans, elves, which are few in number and strong individually, were classified as a major risk factor and were thoroughly eliminated to the extent that they were similar to Amerians. It was not easy to have children because of their long lifespan, so it didn’t take long for only one person to remain.

“My ancestors are asleep on this earth. And as the last elf… … .”

The magic power flowing from Lenny’s body was concentrated on the ground. Feeling foreboding, I reflexively moved my arm holding the sword faster than I realized.

With a flash of light, Lenny’s neck rolled to the floor.

“I can wake up the ancestor you call a witch.”

Nevertheless, Lenny continued with only his head remaining. It was an unpleasant sight.

“May it be a pleasant trial.”

As Lenny finished, the forest started howling.

The forest screamed. As if there was an earthquake, the ground shook like crazy, and birds flocked out of the forest. It was like an animal’s instinctive escape when a natural disaster strikes.

“The witch of the forest, the witch of the forest… … .”

Mi-ryung, who was lying down, stumbled and got up from her seat. As if feeling a visceral fear, his ears were erect and he trembled.

“Oh, come on. If you don’t run away, you will die. You will die, if you don’t run away… … !!”

“For now, calm down… … run away!!”

There was no time to calm down. Beyond the wasteland, countless black hands were sprouting from the ground.

“Wh, what happened?! Are you okay?!”

“I can’t afford to talk at length! Run away!”

Fortunately, it did not rise from the entire mountain, but rather came down from the top. I ordered everyone to descend and sprinted away.

‘Even though it’s different from the original, it’s so different. What the hell is the witch of the forest!’

Why did the episode, which was mainly about confronting the citizens of Saratov and quarreling between nobles and commoners, become such a full-fledged action escape episode? I spewed curse words that would make the students go crazy when they heard them.

“Princess! I’ll take your back! Go forward first!”

“it’s okay! Front and back, first come, first served! Go for a run!”

I stopped as I tried to speed up, yelling at Proud to stand behind me. It is impossible for anyone other than me to be in charge of the tail end and prepare for an unexpected attack.

For reference, Mi-ryung uses her beast instinct to the fullest and runs on all fours, running far ahead. I think it’s great, but I don’t feel like imitating it.

‘Damn it, how far are you going to chase me!’

He didn’t stop running and didn’t look at him, only turning his upper body to cut off the hands that came close. Just like Lenny did, he cuts off the flying stems that are entangled.

It’s fortunate that the front seems to run well without hindrance, but it’s to die for.

‘Wait a minute, rather than that, these hands and stems… … .’

The moment I cut off the stalk flying from the front, I realized a sense of incongruity.

‘Aren’t they only targeting me?’

At the same time as I realized that, there was a girl in front of me.

She was a girl who was strangely reminiscent of an Aztec priestess, wearing clothes with unique ancient patterns densely engraved on the edges.

“Let’s talk a little bit.”

Before I could shout something out of embarrassment, the girl stretched out her arms and spoke softly——I lost consciousness.

When I woke up, it was a pure white space.

It was a strange space with a welcoming and different sense from the black space of the previous sensory blocking bathtub, created by Lenny a while ago.

“I mean, are all elves specializing in illusions?”

“Don’t compare it to the skills of the half you dealt with.”

As he grumbled, a voice came from behind. When I turned around, the girl from earlier was sitting on a chair with her legs crossed. She was a girl with sparkling white hair who didn’t even look 15 years old, and looked too young to be called an ancestor.

“Don’t say it again. talk.”

The girl said, twisting her leg to the other side. It was a move that is usually said to be s*xy, but because of her youthful appearance, it was just thought of as cute.

“… … Where is this?”

“Okay. It’s like a gap in time and space.”

Resting her chin on her chin, the girl made a noise like a drag ball.

“Outside time is stopped, so you don’t have to worry.”

“Right. So, can I at least practice here?”

“Huh. That wouldn’t be too bad either. Is there a way to use it?”

At my words, the girl nodded in interest. And with a smirk, he looked at me as if he was interested. I got a little goosebumps.

“You are a witch… … Are you the ancestor of the elves?”

“yes.”

“So, what are you going to do with me? Even revenge of the destroyed elves? That’s not what I did.”

“I don’t know those guys.”

The girl——the witch frowned at the words she said nervously but skillfully.

“The guilt of the ungrateful descendants who sealed their ancestors deep in the ground just because they were too strong has been sucked away as food from the tree. joy. It’s ugly.”

The witch snorted with a displeased look on her face without a hint of sympathy. It was more cute than necessary in terms of the behavior of a person who could be considered the ancestor of the elves.

Did Lenny even know that his ancestors were thinking this way? If Lennie had been alive, he might have been attacked, not me.

“Anyway, let’s talk.”

The witch said the third sentence.

“Do you want to talk like that?”

“of course. This body has been asleep for a very long time. During that time, I had a lot of nightmares. Thanks to that, it caused a bit of trouble to the trees and animals.”

Was it because of the nightmare that the mana was distorted? I have no idea if it’s trivial or serious.

“So tell me something interesting.”

Dude, the witch clasped her palms and her eyes twinkled.

“Is it an interesting story to ask you to leave such a scary attack?”

“okay. Sadly, my seal wasn’t completely broken.”

The witch put her chin on her chin and let out a deep sigh.

“If it was a seal that could be broken by a half-elf pouring magic into it, I immediately opened it. Eventually, as time passes, I will be sealed in the forest again. There will soon be a limit to what is out like this.”

The witch said sadly, twisting her hair with her fingers. It occurred to me that maybe the appearance of such a small girl might be because the seal was not completely broken.

More than that, if the seal can be chased that far even if it is not completely broken, what will happen if it is completely broken? It is an existence close to a disaster.

“This is what I found in this situation. Open this gap and catch a person. Time does not pass in this space. It’s meaningless if you’re alone, but wouldn’t it be fun if you were two?”

“… … ha. So, what would you do if I told you a funny story?”

“Don’t let it go. Ah, but… … .”

The witch slurred.

“If you talk too interesting, I might not be able to let you go because I want to hear more.”

“You say you can’t let go?”

“okay. I’m going to talk here forever until I get tired of it. Become a horse partner I don’t know if you’ll like it, but it would be nice to do other fun things.”

The witch giggled as she made a meaningless gesture of touching her index fingers together. tired rapidly.

“forever?”

“okay. Well, even in eternity, the end comes, so after aeons of time, if I get tired of it, they might release it. Then you will return to the situation you ran away from, so try to live hard again.”

“I don’t think I’ll have any motivation to return to life after spending eons here… … . Then what, can we talk about boring things?”

“Huh. It’s a boring story. funny story… … .”

At my question, the witch tilted her head and pondered.

“Then I will have you killed. And bring another child.”

And he smiled brightly and spoke harsh words casually.

“In this space, I am God and the law. Do not think of going against me.”

“… … I should have run harder. Damn it.”

A story that is funny, but not too funny, moderately funny, but it shouldn’t be funny.

Having given up writing even the original fanfic, I became very anxious about whether I would be able to do it.
