Western Fantasy: The Princess Wants to Save the World
Chapter 17 Unintentional words
Life on the ship was more interesting than Cecilia had imagined, of course it might also be that Valken had arranged it in an interesting way.
Because we go downstream, it actually only takes one day and one night to get from Port Vila to Clifton Port.
The first mate estimated that we would arrive at Clifton Port around eight or nine tomorrow morning.
Valken finally listened to Cecilia's suggestion on patrol arrangements and divided the knights into six groups to take turns patrolling.
Celine also became bolder after this incident and basically stayed close to Cecilia.
Whenever Cecilia wanted to walk or stood for too long, Celine would droop her rabbit ears and look pitiful.
Every time this happened, Cecilia would soften her heart and compromise.
Mel had the opportunity to witness such a scene once, and he was a little contemptuous at first.
A princess is a princess, and she is so pampered.
Until that night, Mel saw Valken picking up Cecilia, and after seeing him, he quickly put Cecilia down.
Cecilia's little face was red because she was embarrassed.
She really didn't feel any pain in her foot, but it seemed that in the eyes of these people, the minor injury on her foot was like a terminal illness.
Cecilia couldn't accept that she was being treated like a disabled person while she was in good health.
But in Mel's eyes, Cecilia's embarrassment was just shyness.
Mel looked at the young Captain of the Royal Guards for the first time.
As far as Mel knew, Valken seemed to be only four years older than him, currently twenty-eight years old, and had climbed step by step from the position of knight to the position of captain, and was deeply trusted by His Majesty.
After Cecilia was put down on the ground, she frowned and threatened Valken in a low voice, "If you act without authorization next time, you will go back to Petra."
The aisle in the cabin was only that big, and there were only three of them in the aisle. Although Cecilia's voice was very low, Mel could still hear it clearly.
For the first time, Mel didn't think Cecilia was angry.
It looks more like a kitten with its blunt claws stretched out and baring its teeth. It's not fierce but very cute.
Mel was shocked by his own thoughts. Was he crazy?
Do you actually think Cecilia, this domineering and arrogant princess, is cute?
He's really crazy.
"What are you doing? I'm really curious, Princess, if any man can do it."
Mel regretted it as soon as he finished speaking, he didn't mean to say those ugly and insulting words, but seeing the atmosphere between the two of them just now, those words just came out of his mouth.
Cecilia and Valken had different reactions when they heard what Mel said.
Valken felt that he had caused trouble for the princess. As the princess's personal knight, he naturally had the obligation to protect the princess's reputation.
"My dear little prince, please be careful with your words. His Highness's reputation is not something you can tarnish casually."
Mel looked at Cecilia, hoping to get a reaction from her. No matter what the reaction was, he would follow Cecilia's attitude and apologize.
But Mel forgot that once words are spoken, the damage has already been done, and an apology cannot always solve the problem.
Cecilia noticed Mel's eyes, but she ignored it. She tugged at Valken's clothes and said, "I'm tired. Take me back."
Valken moved aside to make way for Cecilia.
Cecilia shook her head, "My feet hurt, I don't want to walk."
She thought she might have really become spoiled, and just felt wronged when she heard such words.
She could have thought that Mel was talking about the original owner, but Cecilia still felt aggrieved.
Valken glanced at Mel, who looked a little unhappy, but Valken didn't care.
He said to Cecilia, "Excuse me, Your Highness."
Mel watched Valken carry Cecilia to the end of the corridor and up the stairs.
Mel realized at that moment that he had done something wrong, but he didn't know how to make up for it.
Celine was in the room and saw Valken carrying Cecilia into the room. She thought the princess's foot injury was serious.
"Is the wound split open?" Celine's concerned expression made Cecilia's previous grievance disappear completely.
Not only did I not feel wronged, I even felt that I was being too pretentious just now.
Cecilia sent Celine away and called Valken over. After a moment's hesitation, she asked, "Do you think that what I did just now was not good?"
Cecilia sat on the bedside, and Valken squatted down to look Cecilia in the eye. "No matter what your highness does, the final right of interpretation is yours. You can do whatever you want."
The identity of a princess is really great!
"Thank you, Valken."
When Valken left Cecilia's room, he was still sighing that Her Highness had really become polite and humble.
The previous Cecilia didn't care about other people's opinions or views.
For a moment, it was really hard to tell whether the princess's change was good or bad.
Before he had taken two steps, Valken heard the sound of a door opening behind him. He subconsciously thought that the princess had some instructions.
But what he saw was a hesitant Mel.
Valken walked back to the door of the princess' room and asked, "What do you want to do to the princess?"
Mel's hesitation seemed to be Valken's illusion. Mel returned to his previous arrogant appearance. "Instead of worrying about what I did to the princess, you should worry about what your princess might do to me."
Mel's tone was very firm, as if Cecilia would really do something to Mel.
Valken sounded a little unhappy.
The two of them stood in a stalemate at the door of Cecilia's room.
Mel found the stairs by himself and asked, "Why did Cecilia let you carry her away?"
Valken thought to himself, is the little prince starting to care about the princess?
Although I think this is a good sign for the princess, but when I think about how Mel said such harsh words in front of me just now...
Valken really didn't think that little Prince Mel was suitable for a princess.
But the princess's grievance and sadness were almost written on her face.
Valken guessed what Cecilia hoped for, but he told Mel the truth, "When the princess came to look for you in the early morning, she didn't have time to change her clothes and went out in slippers. The slippers soaked with rain water were too much of a hindrance, so the princess walked barefoot for a while."
Mel's eyes slowly widened, "W-what did you say?"
What the nobles have always cared about most is their image. If we were to name an exception, it would probably be the current Princess Cecilia.
But Cecilia doesn't care about other people's evaluation and opinions of her, which doesn't mean she would go out in tattered clothes.
Why would a princess like her go to look for me in person?
Mel remembered that in that hotel, Cecilia always coughed twice when listening to Valken telling the details.
I thought that was Cecilia's way of attracting me, or a hint that Valken could start lying.
I didn't expect that you were hiding these...
Details that seem insignificant but are actually extremely important.
