Reincarnated Princess Wishes To Avoid Death

Chapter 533



Princess Mia’s Angry Intervention!

“Well, there is a little more that I would like for you all to listen to, but I hope you don’t mind if we end this here for now because from here on out, it’s about the history of each individual clan.” said Mayun as he set the lute aside.

Then he took a deep breath.

“So, how was it? What did you think of my song?”

With a smile on his face, Mayun eagerly asked for everyone’s impression of the song. However, the response he got was silence.

While everyone was disconcerted by the subtle traces of the Chaos Serpents’ involvement, Mia was enjoying the subtle lingering fragrance of the exquisite milk.

As everyone seemed to hesitate to speak…

“Hmm. I thought that it was troublesome for Father to insist on the guests listening to his songs. However, I suppose it can be useful sometimes.” said Malong

“No, my son. I’m not asking for your opinion.” retorted Mayun

Mayun seemed a little disappointed by his son’s cold and indifferent attitude. Bel decided to cheer him up and said “It was so much fun to learn about the history of the Equestrian Kingdom! I thought it was nice to learn history in the form of a song as it didn’t make me sleepy or bored.The sound of the lute and the singing voice were both very beautiful.”

Well, that seemed like a slightly odd impression, but…

“Is that so? Well, that’s good. In that case, whenever you have time, please feel free to come and listen again.” responded Mayun with a smile. Bel’s encouragement seemed to have made him happy.

On the other hand, Citrina was watching Bel’s reaction.

“Singing… I see… I suppose I can request Father to arrange some songwriting lessons for me… yeah”

Well, setting aside Citrina’s mumbling …

“That was a big help, Lord Mayun. Thanks to you we were able to understand the circumstances of the Equestrian Kingdom in an easy manner.”

After giving a safe impression, Mia once again reflected on the song she had heard.

It was a story that highlighted the desire of a very ambitious person to control his natural enemy, the wolf, and seek dominance over the world. After failing to gain the support of his blood-related brothers, Ka Seima of the Fire clan fled his ancestral land in despair. What fate did he and his fellow clan members meet afterward?

As Mia folded her arms and was in deep thought…

“That was quite the conveniently interpreted song, very befitting of the cowardly Equestrian Kingdom.” Aima spat out the words.

“Oh? Then, how is it told by the Fire clan?”

Mayun looked at Aima with a calm smile. He wore a slightly troubled expression, like that of a Father facing his daughter who was going through a rebellious phase.

“That’s obvious. It has been said that all the people who remained in the Equestrian Kingdom are not only cowards who cling to what they have now but also lazy people who fear change.” Aima declared as she glared at Mayun and sent a sharp look towards Malong.

“The results speak for themselves, don’t they? Look at the current Equestrian Kingdom. Nothing has changed even to this day. You still struggle to protect your prized possessions from wolves and end up lagging behind not only the Kingdom of Sunkland, but even the Remno Kingdom.” remarked Aima

On hearing those words, Prince Abel of the Remno Kingdom couldn’t help but give a wry smile.

“If, at that time, we had taken the power of the wolf into our hands, we could have dominated the entire continent. We could have been a country on par with the Kingdom of Sunkland. Scared of the taboo, scared of change, scared to fight, scared of power — isn’t that why the Equestrian Kingdom is in this position now?”

Then Aima looked towards Mia in a huff and turned the discussion over to her.

“Don’t you think so, Princess Mia?”

However Mayun didn’t give Mia any time to respond, and chimed in instead.

“Are you suggesting that leading a pack of wolves and entering into conflicts with the Kingdoms of Sunkland and Remno would be a good idea?”

“We are the descendants of proud warriors. We have fought to protect our treasures — the sheep and our family. Naturally, we wield power when necessary, for the sake of our friends and family. Moreover, the power of the wolf is formidable. Those of you who are used to fighting them should know that. If we could gain access to this great power, there was no reason to refuse. You people of the equestrian Kingdom fear war, power, change. That’s what cowards do.”

“Change is not necessarily a good thing. Instead of heading in the wrong direction towards something bad, it is better to stop and stand still.”

Mayun said with a calm expression, however Aima snorted and let out a laugh.

“Hmm, words befitting the descendant of the dense Fulong –- unmoving like the forest, only swaying at the mercy of the wind.”

“Having power doesn’t always make you right. In fact, you tried to use your power to steal food and ended up falling into our hands. Even if you learn how to use great power, you can’t even think ahead as to what you wish to achieve with that power. With such ignorance, even if you hold great power, it is nothing but an invitation to disaster — befitting the descendant of the reckless Seima, who grew arrogant after learning the use of fire and reached for the stars.”

Just as Aima was about to speak after glaring sharply at Mayun…

“Oh my! How long do you plan to discuss such trivial matters?”

Suddenly, a voice echoed in.

“What did you say?” Aima unknowingly raised her voice and was immediately shocked by the sight.

It was Mia — the gentle and great wisdom of the Empire, the one who gladly handed over cookies to a girl who was a bandit, who was shaking with anger.

“I am asking, how long will we have to continue such fruitless discussions before you are satisfied?”

After gazing at the faces of Aima and Mayun, Mia spoke.

“What do you stand to gain by arguing over something that is already over, something that happened a long time ago?”

Mia shook her head slightly and said in exasperation.

“Isn’t that something that has already ended and is a thing of the past?”
