How would a person feel when everything they cherish disappeared in an instant, and they fell into rock bottom?

I don’t know how other people would react if they find themselves in that kind of situation, but Monia is overcome by a strong sense of insecurity. 

“Argh!”

“My neck, why does it hurt so much”

It was then when Chester, who just finished drinking the coconut and was lost in thought, then he suddenly realized it.

‘Why does my neck feel like this?’

She suddenly started to swallowed her saliva again and again, and she was confused by the tightness of her throat.

“….”

Soon, she noticed herself staring at the sea waves with her eyes and realized what she is feeling

‘Am I thirsty...?’


 

thirsty. hungry.

It is the first time she felt physical pain after being born as the daughter of a ducal family and living without lacking in anything.

‘I’m thirsty.’

It is the first time.

Being thirsty, and desperately seeking water, but the butler or the maid not bringing the water. That is melted from the snow on the top of the lofty mountain where the dragon lives, and in a wine glass made by a famous glass craftsman.

With the pain she felt for the first time, she finally realized the situation she was denying just a moment ago.

She has been abandoned, and she all so lost everything.

as she was thinking dose thoughts, Chester suddenly got up and began to enter the forest without a word.

 when she watched Chester disappear into the darkness of the forest, Monia was swept away by an intense feeling of anxiety.

it's a feeling like she's On a loud festival day that excites the whole village, and the anxiety she felt is as if a child lost his parents’ hand and was left alone.

 It is the fear of losing someone to rely on an unfamiliar environment.

Fear filled Monia's thought

And she hurriedly got up and followed Chester as he started to disappear.

"What the heck are you doing! I'm so thirsty, why didn't he offer me any water?"

 She is still not mature enough to face the reality of her situation, and she followed Chester through the forest with such a far-fetched thought.

* * * * * *

Chester picked up a large stone and took a mental image of the bamboo he had seen beforehand.

 After hitting it with a stone a couple of times, the bamboo splits open and water flows out.

“Hururup.”

Chester pressed his mouth against the bamboo and drank as much as he could from the clear, clean water that flowed from inside.

His thirsty body kept asking for more water, and Chester broke another bamboo and drank all the water in it.

“Ahhh! Much better.”

 Finally, his thirst is quenched, and the water goes in smoothly in the mouth and throat.

This clear, cool water was hundreds of times better than berry's or coconut juice.

Chester stood up with a satisfied smile on his face, as his body and head felt more refreshed than before.

“gulp.”

I looked at Monia, who is staring at the empty bamboo, while swallowing saliva that didn't even exist.

“Oops!”

 When Chester saw her, Monia hurriedly turned her head away, pretending not to be interested, but it was too obvious at that point.

“Are you thirsty?”

Chester broke another bamboo with the stone he was holding.

“Oh, no?”

“Your voice is trembling so much. Do you want a drink, I still have some.”

 “Oops! Oh, do you think I, the daughter of a ducal, will fall down on all knees and kiss your feet like a filthy commoner begging

“A…a kiss.”

Chester hit the bamboo with a stone.

“gulp.”

Seeing that, Monia swallowed her saliva without realizing it, but there was not a single drop of saliva to swallow in the first place

“Go if you don't need it.”

As Chester threw the stone and turned around, Monia’s vision suddenly got dizzy.

“Ah, ah… .”

Monia’s eyes became dizzy.

 I followed Chester’s back, looked at the bamboo trees, and quickly headed for the bamboo's.

The moment she realized that her mouth was dry, she was overtaken with an unbearable thirst again.

Unknowingly, as soon, as she took a step closer to the bamboo's.

“Kyaaak?!”

And suddenly, her feet went down and she fell.

“….”

Chester, who watched all of it from a distance, sighed and approached Monia.

“Did you fall?”

“Ugh…!”

My ankle hurts.

Walking through the rough and rugged forest in high heels felt like my feet were being torn to shreds.

 I am in so much pain and suffering, but my throat is dry, and there are dust in my eyes, so I cried profusely.

 ‘Why! Why the hell do I have to be like this?! What did I do wrong!’

Of course, if I actually said it, Chester would snort, saying that it is absurd.

If you stay calm, a commoner girl who doesn't her place will get close to the prince and will be ‘disappeared’ on her own, so why bother and make a mess?

Of course, I thought of this when I was working as her butler, but since it was Monia who had the money and power, so at that time I just silently followed her orders.

 Of course, it has nothing to do with Monia. 

She was a duke, and so, everything she does is correct.

So she couldn’t understand.

She couldn't believe that she would be subjected to such a situation for harassing a commoner ‘female’.

What was that livestock?

“Shut up! Black! Oops!”

After that Oops, an unknown things hit him and pushed him, and as both his body and mind became confuse, the limit broke. 

 And the limit, infinitely expanded like a balloon about to burst, and burst with his precious treasure,the heel and ankle of her high heels made by artisan Flalon, twisting him as he stumbled and fell down.

 After hitting his, treasure, Monia sniffled as she hiccuped, and eventually bursting into tears uncontrollably.

“Black! Whoops! aaa!!”

“this.”

 It hurts, it hurts, it’s scary, I'm so hungry, and I'm thirsty.

In addition, it's hard to even cry because she is thirsty. And is about to snap, but it was sad that her tears wouldn't stop, and as her tears fall down, she continued to cry and cry again and again. 

 Chester, after seeing Monia like this, various situations started to enter his mind

 ‘It’s noisy.’

I'm worried that other animals might hear the sound and come here to check

‘Should I hit her?’

I unconsciously clench my fist and thought about it.

In fact, while working under her as a butler, I wanted to hit or kill her more than once or twice.

They don't understand the harsh reality, and they have no idea, And they are forced to do things that cannot be done with just money and power, so it is very difficult for them.

And if you can’t do it, you will be criticized and punished, and your salary will be cut, so there is no choice.

When he remembered those days when he was clearly eating better and living better than when he was young, but he was also getting drain day by day, Chester thought that he could just ignore it and move on.

“Crying doesn't solve anything here.”

Chester left, and Monia, who is left alone, cried even more sorrowfully.

But there is no one here to listen to her.

But Monia is the type of person who could do nothing unless someone did it for her.

So, all she could do is cry.

That is the only thing she could do, and eventually, after shedding all her tears, she couldn't even do that.

After collapsing to the floor do to exhaustion, she felt.

The misery, loneliness, fear, and sadness that becomes much bigger when you cry.

and helpless.

She finally realized that the world is harsh.

Realizing how harsh the world is, she wondered who was it that had forced it against her.

Perpetrators of her suffering.

In Monia’s mind, the face of a commoner who persuaded the royal family without knowing her place as a livestock and the face of a prince who fell for such a commoner came to mind.

Saying that, miraculously, strength returned to her body.

You have to trample on the man who betrayed you and the commoner who doesn't know her place

A commoner woman, a prince, a person who turned their back to her, a family that abdicated her, and the royal family!

A burning desire to take revenge that wouldn't be realized, awakened Monia.

“Argh!”

I forgot about the pain and fatigue in my body as my adrenaline was pumped out with my anger.

‘Those bastards… … .’

Monia, biting her lips softly, looked at her broken high heels and the bamboo.

Then, she closed her eyes, and she sat down then crawled close to the bamboo that Chester had just indicated for her to drink.

Following what Chester did, she puts her heel where Chester had hit the bamboo a couple of times with a stone and swings the heel, hitting with the heel like a hammer.

Without decent technique or strength, she couldn't even swing her heel properly, so it is common for her to hit her fingers, but she didn't stop.

I worked so hard and I finally managed to make a hole in the bamboo and water flowed out.

“Ahhh.”

Monia cling to the bamboo as if hugging her lover and brought her lips as if to kiss the small hole.

“….”!!

When the clear rainwater that had accumulated in the bamboo came in through her mouth, her body, which was like a dry desert, stopped breathing and just drank the water.

I can clearly feel the water passing down my throat, and from there, I can feel the life returning to my slowly dying body.

It was such an ecstatic pleasure.

The joy she felt was like tasting the delicacies from all over the world that she enjoyed throughout her life.

Or, the pleasure she felt was like when she harassed and ruined a person or woman she didn't like in any way.

Or, the tickling of a shy heart when you were near the prince you loved.

The pleasure she felt was like when the commoners knelt down and bowed their heads to her while trembling.

This is the joy of winning life from the bottom of death, which surpasses all the emotions she has felt in her life

 It was clearer and cleaner than a river formed by the melting snow of the lofty mountain, and it was more delicious than any high class delicacies or seafood that I had ever eaten. It is the taste of life.

“Ahhh!”

 Full of joy, Monia let out a sudden cry, but when the water flowed a little, she put her lips on the bamboo again in a fright.

“oh! Side, chook!” 

 She even sucked on one side, like she was sucking on a straw.

Monia, who drank the water until no more water came out of the bamboo, then showing an expression that she could not have imagined herself making a moment ago, and got up from her seat. 

“Ugh!!!”

When I woke up, I felt pain in my ankle.

Seeing the swelling on her bare feet and the heels on the other side, Monia closed her eyes and took off the high heels she was wearing. 

‘This is something I don't need anymore.’

It is an object that would only be a hindrance to surviving here.


 

After taking off her high heels, Chester appeared out of nowhere in front of her.

“What, did you just take off your high heels?”

He is carrying two relatively thin logs on one shoulder and a load of vines and branches on the other.

Monia, who saw how carefree he is even though he had suffered so much, chewed her lips again in resentment and said,

“I can’t walk because my ankle hurts. So do something about it.”

“Huh, really.”

Chester laughed at her absurdity and put down the materials he had gathered and took a looked at Monia’s ankles.

“Your feet are ugly.”

“poft… ! That’s rude!”
