Wooooahh! This Toad's stats were! Actually, I have yet to learn what regular stats look like, but I can assume that they're not bad? Oh well, I will have to ask Eclaire about it; for now, all I knew was that the creature belonged to me! It was my Toad!

Hehe hehe! Now, how do I mount this thing? Can I order it to put its head down so I can jump on its back? What?! I can?! That's so convenient! As soon as I thought about it, the Toad moved and acted as if I had given it orders! WOOOOOH Sho, cool!!

{Ribbit! Ribbit!}

"Thanks again. We will leave now, A."

"Pleasure doing business with you, miracle girl! Come back whenever you like! My doors are always open!" Said the man who I still didn't know the name of.

"Uh, Uh, thanks. Uhm, random, sir!"

"You can just call me Mr. A."

Well, he was a weirdo; who calls themselves a single letter? I didn't know how to feel about it besides thinking the author, Misa, is a lazy bum who can't come up with names on the fly. Puff girl, I swear.

["Stop indulging so much against me, Anabel, or I will give you another permanent Nerf! Don't tease me like that!"]

Sorry, sorry, Misa! I was just kidding just kidding. Geez, you're so dam sensitive. In any case, there is AI for everything, so your case is just laziness. Just ask one of the AI chats to give you names! Cheat!

["NO! NOW CONTINUE THE STORY!"]

Ugh, you're no fun. In any case, now all that was left was option A! Return back home! Option B! Go on a little side quest to look for metals and complete my weapon faster. Honestly, I wanted to go for a little trip, but as things seemed unfavorable, I chose option A.

Boring, boring, I know, I know, okay? But think about it. I'm still being chased by the lord of this land, and my guards are on their way. If I head home, I should eventually meet up with them. It makes the most sense to choose option A.

"Hey, kid, we gotta go stop wasting more time."

"Okay, okay."

Eclaire interrupted my train of thought again, but it didn't matter; I already knew we had to go. Whatever. If this was the end of my first arc as royalty, then it was going too smoothly. I had a bad feeling about it. Since when that fucking Goddess makes things easy for me? That's right! Never! Her silence was making me nervous.

It's like that feeling hunters get when they're in nature hunting their prey, you know what I mean. The suddenly dead, silent forest when it was full of crickets and other animals around. The feeling of being watched over from a distance, simply being stalked like a sitting duck.

What was the Goddes planning? She couldn't be quiet for this long; she had never been this inactive against me. She was always messing with me somehow, even in everyday life! So the fact that she had apparently left me alone was concerning!

{sight} No point in worrying about it. It's not like I can stop whatever she might be planning. I don't even have a gun yet, so all I can do is survive! And I will survive. I will make sure I can prove everyone wrong!

And so, I mounted my Toad and walked outside to the middle of the street while mounting a walking TOAD! Every single soul was staring at me as we passed by. The shame of being observed was killing me, mainly because I was still kinda smelly!

Eventually, we met with L'arc, who had been waiting for us next to an outdoor blacksmith shop. Gosh, he was so manly. If I had to use a single word to describe his looks, it would be "Manly."

L'arc was the epidemy of a warrior, with his marked abs and huge biceps. His clothes resembled that of a Japanese wandering samurai, which was probably why he was so good-looking; oh gosh, why am I talking about him like that? I'm still straight! I still like boobs!

But wait, I'm no longer a guy, am I? {sigh} I have to eventually come to accept this body and its desires even if my mind still indulges in my previous desires. It's only natural that I find L'arc a little attractive but maybe a little too much. Calm down, heart!

"Oh, hey! Uh! Ehm Eclaire! What the hell is the meaning of this? Why is there a homeless girl riding a toad next to you!"

"Hey! I'm the girl you saved!"

"L'arc, get on your dragon." Said Eclaire.

"Oh, sorry! It's just that you're all dirtied and also smell so bad. Sorry, kiddo."

he called me a "homeless girl." EHEHE EHEHEHE! I'm not embarrassed to be called that by the alpha of alphas, not at all. It's not shameful in the slightest! It doesn't bother me even a little bit! I'm completely shameless! Waaahhh!! TwT

Soon, we headed straight for the city exit gate, and surprisingly enough, the guards let us through. They wanted to stop me from passing the gates as they recognized me as the target their lord had set, but when they saw I was with L'arc and Eclaire, they let me go.

Who the hell were these two? Nonetheless, they had to be some big-shot adventurers because the level of respect the guards paid them was unbelievable! The merchant did call Eclaire "Miracle Girl," after all.

"Dam, kiddo. You got some big fish chasing after you, just who are you?" Asked L'arc as we left the city gates after a quick exchange with the guards.

"I'm Anabel, the crown princess of the nation..."

"Ahaha! Well, that's odd! A princess without magicules? I don't believe it. Prove it, kiddo!"

"L'arc, come on, leave her alone."

Before Eclaire could finish stopping L'arc, I handed the man my Royal identification sigil, and he finally believed me.

"Well, I'll be dammed. I could have sworn I heard the Princess was the most powerful mage in the entire country! Are you sure you didn't just steal that?"

"L'arc! Come on! Do you think she could steal anything? She's useless!"

Yeah! You tell him, Eclaire! I'm good for nothing, you heard! I can't even steal. Wait a dam minute! Are you on my side or roasting me, Eclaire?
