I Raised Snow White!

43. Time to say goodbye (1)

[Episode 43] – Time to say goodbye (1)

I almost snatched the invitation from Kerven from the princess’s hand. Then, the princess pouted his lips and glared at me, saying that Franc had stolen the present.

“Mi, I’m sorry. Wait a minute Fran, why the hell are you giving this to Titania?”

“There is no great reason for the invitation. It’s just that the princess seems to have enough talent as a ‘witch’, so I just gave it as the most valuable thing I can give.”

I frowned upon hearing that the princess had ‘talent’ as a witch.

As much as there is a ‘witch ending’ in the game dealing with dwarf fairies, I already knew that the princess had ‘talent’ as a witch…

I made a bitter expression as I looked at the ‘Curven Invitation’ in my hand.

“…As expected, no. If you’re going to give me a present, give me something else. Something other than ‘witch’ related.”

“Why? I’m not specifically asking the princess to become a witch. Also, just cutting your face with the Witches of the Kerven might be of great help to the princess in the future.”

“It could be… it could be…”

Fran calmly began to explain what ‘Kurven’ was like.

A gathering of witches, a place where many talented ‘witches’ gather to share their knowledge.

And they say they are all ‘experts’ in one field, just like Fran is a doctor.

I knew this to some extent, but the princess, hearing about the curve for the first time, pricked up her ears and focused on Fran’s words.

For a princess who has lived her entire life in the palace, stories about the outside inevitably stimulated her curiosity.

Fran said that if they were like that, they would definitely help the princess when she was in trouble.

From noble mtl dot com

I snatched the letter from Frank’s hand to the princess’s again, and looked at her princess and shook her head.

Then the princess, who had been deprived of her own gift twice, puffed out her cheeks and held out her hand to me, begging her to return it quickly.

“No.”

“Why…? Fran gave it to me… It’s my birthday present…”

“…Anyway, no.”

Because I don’t want you to become a ‘witch’.

I can’t help Fran, who has already been entangled, but I didn’t want the princess to be entangled with other ‘witches’ from now on.

Because I know how everyone views Vivian, who is rumored to be a ‘witch’.

I could be careful not to get caught, but I couldn’t help it because I was worried because I knew what would happen if I got caught. I looked at the crying princess and shook her head vigorously.

“No way! Not all witches are good people like Frank! Among them, there are witches who eat people, but do you still want to visit them?!”

“There are no man-eating witches in The Coven.”

I tried my best to ignore Fran’s words and looked at the princess with a serious expression. The princess opened her eyes as if she wasn’t afraid of a witch who ate people! She opened her hand and glared at me.

“Give me back!”

“No! Nothing good will happen if you get involved with a witch!”

“Your Highness the Queen is also a witch! You told me I was a good witch!”

“That, that is…!”

I looked at the princess with a bitter expression on my face in a situation where the remarks of the past held me back now.

As if the princess had no intention of stepping down any longer, she approached me and tried to take away the letter from her.

As I held her letter high above her head, she started running in front of me, asking me to return it.

Just when I was wondering what to do, Fran took out an invitation card from her pocket and showed it to the princess.

“There is still a lot left.”

“Wait…!”

Seeing the invitation with both hands full of Franc, the princess widened her eyes and hurriedly ran to receive her letter and hid it in her pocket. The sight made her head throb, and she had no choice but to place her hand on her forehead.

‘I really don’t want to get involved with a witch…’

As I let out a deep sigh, the princess was busy glancing at me. Do you think I’m mad? The princess glanced at me, then she hid behind Fran.

I let out a deep sigh once more, sat down in her chair, and looked at the princess hiding behind Fran. The princess made eye contact with me and then hid behind her Franc’s back and looked at me intently.

Then, Ainsel, who was hanging around the princess’s neck, made a suggestion.

-I can go with Vivian when the princess goes to the curb later, right? I know you’re worried about the princess… But you really don’t have to worry. It’s not such a bad place.

“…Yes, I understand if you say that.”

I nodded her head in agreement, and the princess’s face lit up. As if it was so good that I allowed it, the princess even jumped in place with the ainsel hanging around her neck.

“…So good?”

“Yes!”

Ehehehe Looking at the smiling princess, I felt her guilt pierce my heart.

That’s right… I gave them permission to go to the curb, but I had no particular intention of going.

In the first place, even if I received an invitation from Kerven, I couldn’t go there easily. Just like the reason why I couldn’t go to Kerven, the princess also had the position of being a ‘princess’ of the kingdom, so she couldn’t easily leave the royal castle.

So, for now, he only allowed her words, and later, when the princess grew up, the princess would realize her own situation and understand her spontaneously.

As she nodded like that, Fran also nodded her head and stroked the princess’s head. Then, I comforted the princess with words I never expected.

“I’m glad Vivian allowed it. If you want to go to the curb, you can always open the letter. I will come to meet the princess and Vivian myself.”

“Huh?”

I opened my eyes wide and looked at Fran, and Fran showed me an invitation as if she didn’t know. And when I opened the invitation, the necklace on Fran’s neck rang and the alarm went off.

“As you can see, an alarm has been set for me when I open the letter. And since I’m a good witch, I can get here in no time. And, it can be transported to the meeting place in Kerven in an instant. To say it again, because I am an excellent witch.”

Fran put her arms around her waist and confidently spread her chest to show off her competence.

‘So… Does that mean that Fran will be notified as soon as the invitation is opened, and that Fran will come here as if teleporting and take us…? I thought it was just an invitation…’

Involuntarily, I swallowed dry saliva at the invitation with various functions, wondering if it was granted for nothing. For some reason, various uses came to mind, but I shook my head to shake my thoughts.

Whether she knew my feelings or not, the princess just said she was curious and jumped around in front of Fran and liked it. I want to confiscate the invitation, let’s reach out to the princess-

“Titania, I’ll take care of the invitation first. If you want to go later, be sure to tell me-“

“No! I will have it!”

In an instant, the princess avoided my hand and ran to the corner of the room to protect the invitation by rolling her body into a circle. And even growled, telling me not to come closer.

It seemed to overlap with the image of a child struggling to not want her parents to take away her money. As if she no longer believed in saying that she would return it when she grew up, the princess crouched down and tried to protect the invitation.

-They say giving and then taking away is the worst thing…

“That’s right. Vivian doesn’t know the human heart.”

On top of that, even Ainsel and Frank shook their heads and whispered whispers.

For some reason, I felt like I had become a bad person, so I had no choice but to withdraw my hand from the princess.

I also crouched down on the floor to make eye contact with the squatting princess.

Then, hugging her knees and burying her head in her arms, the princess curled up and lifted her head, and met her eyes.

“…Yes, I won’t try to take it anymore. Instead, when you open an invitation, you really, really, really must tell me first. Got it?”

“Ehehehe! Yes great!”

The princess who was curled up in a circle poofed her body! Opening it up, he jumped up and hugged me. Yeah… How can I refuse you when you ask me like this?

I held the princess in my arms and sat down on the chair. Looking at the princess looking at the invitation as if she were really happy on my lap, I thought it was okay now.

‘Yeah… It’s not particularly dangerous, just think of it as a tool that sends an alarm to Fran if you open the invitation, right?’

Later, when something really dangerous happened to the princess, I thought that if I had this invitation, I would be able to get help from Fran. You can get help not only from Fran, but also from other witches.

‘Yes, let’s think of it as a simple ‘insurance’.’

I pressed my cheek against the princess’s face to soothe the uneasiness that had risen in her chest for some reason.

The princess giggled at the tickle and shrank her body, but I fixed her head and rubbed her cheek.

After our short party, the next morning. Fran said goodbye to the princess, saying that it was time for her to leave.

*

“Are you really going back…?”

“Yes, Ainsel, who was a patient, is now well, so it is time to go back. Even where I was, there are many patients waiting for me, so I can’t help it.”

Before leaving, Fran, who had packed his little things, crouched down to look at the princess, looking at her. The princess did not want to meet her eyes with such a franc, but turned her head away from her gaze.

And then, at last, the princess leaped at me with her galloping stride and hid behind my skirt. Fran looked at the princess who shook her head as if she didn’t want to see her, and held out her hand to the princess.

“Princess, say your goodbyes one last time.”

“……”

The princess, with her lips pouted, looked at her fran, then reached out her hand helplessly and took hold of the fran’s hand. And let’s try to wiggle her up and down –

Oops!

Fran’s wrist was pulled out as he was waving. The princess’s eyes widened at the sudden Franzoc, but instead of being surprised as if she was used to it, she threw her hand away at Frann in anger.

“Whoops, this is the last Franzoc.”

“I really hate it!!!”
