Reincarnated Princess Wishes To Avoid Death

Princess Mia and Correct Way to Do Artificial Respiration

Immediately after the feeling of floating, struck the feeling of cold water. Mia, who fell headfirst into the river, was saved by the depth of the water… and the next moment, she was about to be killed by that depth.

“Ababa Baba …”

Yes, Mia … can’t swim. She had hardly been to any water in her two lifetimes, and so she had no idea how to handle herself. She may love bathing and large pools, but swimming was never a part of Tearmoon culture

“Aba… blub… blub…”

While spitting bubbles from her mouth, the powerful torrents pulled Mia’s body deeper into the bottom. She couldn’t breathe and her chest became painful. Her eyesight began to falter.

Ughhh… This is really really bad…

Mia couldn’t figure out which was up or down as she kept being swept by the torrent. She was already fatigued from the ordeal in the wagon. She belched out her final breath of air as she reached her limit.

Oh, I’m dying here. So, this is it. At least this might be better than dying at the guillotine… Urgh…

She felt a little bit better thinking about this. What was left behind was a sad, sweet, and sour, slightly bitter aftertaste as her consciousness sank into the darkness.

“… Princess. Hey, reply, Princess Mia!”

She heard a voice calling her somewhere far away. Next, the feeling her body being shaken. Then a few slaps to her cheeks. There was a sourness in her mouth. But everything felt as if they are so far away. Her senses were dulled.

Uh, what is this? What happened to me …?

Mia tried to open her eyes with all her energy. Immediately in front of her was Prince Sion’s dashing face just mere inches from her own.

Prince Sion? What on earth?

Vaguely hazy thoughts came into her mind about something Anne told her before.

Oh, Anne said that she learned from Elise’s novel a way of saving drowned people by breathing them air through a kiss.

She was slow but the current reality was starting to catch up.

I remember saying that it was indecent… but even then, I actually thought it was wonderfully romantic… oh?

Mia was in a pinch! She finally realized what was happening.

Does this mean that Prince Sion wants to kiss me? This is going to be my first kiss and I want to save it for Prince Abel!

Mia was very confused by the situation in this world. This had never happened to her both in the past and in this world. And to think it will be with her archnemesis, Prince Sion.

Oh, Prince Abel, I’m sorry … But, well …, this situation is a little nice, isn’t it? This can’t be helped, even if my heart is pounding a little. I guess anyone’s heart would pound with a situation like this. It’s not really my fault. This is beyond my control, isn’t it?”

With her conscience cleared, Mia closed her eyes tightly and waited for the inevitable. But there was bit of water in her mouth. And it tasted bitter. It would be inappropriate to have water in her mouth for such an event. And so, she spit it out.

The next moment! Mia’s face is turned sideways …

Hmm? Oh my, how odd. Why sideways …?

She didn’t have much time to wonder as something touched her lips…

Hin!

The next moment, Mia screams with all her heart! It wasn’t exactly as Mia thought it would be. The sensation was… well… something parted her lips, pushed past her teeth, and wriggled its way into her mouth. And the texture was coarser than she imagined.

Oh, oh? What on earth is this?

Then suddenly, it came into Mia’s throat.

“Blueeghh!”

Mia made an unromantic sound and forcible woke herself up.

* Notes on Sunkland artificial respiration!

③ When a drowned person vomits

If a drowned person vomits, turn the person’s head to the side immediately. After that, scrape off the foreign matter with your fingers to clean the inside of the mouth, and then continue artificial respiration.

Because of Sion’s clumsy but appropriate treatment, Mia managed to hold on to her first kiss. Good for her!

Teary eyed, she crawled on all fours, spitting out water on the spot, and then Mia raises her face.

“Oh, praise the sun. You are breathing again.”

In front of her was Sion with a very relieved expression.

“I… I thought I’d die.”

“Yes. That torrent was certainly dangerous.”

No! It was because of you! It was painful because your finger was stuck in the back of my throat! Do you really want a lady to say that out loud?!

Mia was even more embarrassed because her mind was full of dirty thoughts earlier. But at the end of the day, Sion saved her life.

“Thank you for your help. Prince Sion”

To her surprise, her polite words of gratefulness were met with a serious look.

“It’s a little bit early to thank me…”

Sion looks around after saying that. Following his line of sight, Mia also looks around as well.

“Where…… where are we?”

“Downstream from where we fell. From the map I saw before, my best guess is that we are in the north-western part of Remno Kingdom.”

“Oh. We were able to enter the Kingdom of Remno…”

“Indeed, we were able to get in… but.”

Sion continued to have a serious look in his face.

“This location is pretty bad. I think it’s quite a distance from the royal capital. And to cross back to the border, we need to cross again that river… and…”

Without saying a word, Mia followed again Sion’s line of sight that pointed to a high mountain. To escape, they have to cross that mountain to reach the border.
