❀ : Solitude of death.

"OI, K-78! IF YOU'RE REALLY MY MONITOR THEN TELL ME HOW TO GET OUT FROM THIS DREAM!"

If someone sees me right now, I'd be labeled as Crazy Girl. Who cares anyways? It's nighttime and my sense of panic is overflowing.

Why, you ask? Today's crazy!

"You look beautiful." Sana-chan compliments me after she prepared me. I agree, this dress is way too elegant and smoking! Whatmore, this face that compliments with the dress. Geez, Sana-chan did me good.

The door suddenly opens, "Pardon our insolence, my Lady!" a man says before several footsteps follow. Eh?

"WHA-"

Knights surround me as two of them holds me down on my knees. What's going on?!

"Wha- what are you guys doing?!" I try to struggle. Perhaps thinking of my ranking, their hold isn't too painful but it is tight and uncomfortable.

"Do not be too harsh with Eru-sama's body." Sana-chan steps backward. Whaaaat? I thought we were best friends?!

"Our Lord has sensed humungous amount of an unknown energy. It must be you, show yourself, you monster!" Huuuuuuuh?

"I can't believed Eru-sama's posessed by a demon..." One of the maids start crying.

WAIT, POSESSED? WHAT? WHAT'S HAPPENING?!

𝗔𝗡𝗦𝗪𝗘𝗥. Due to your reckless and OOC actions, they have made the judgement that you are posessed.

Is it my imagination or K-78 sounds disappointed....?

𝗗𝗘𝗡𝗬. That is your imagination.

"Wait, wait- I'm not posessed!" I cry to them. Please, this is all a misunderstanding!

"That's what they all say." A long-haired beautiful knight man replies with sarcasm. This man-?!

"If my memory serves me right, she is posessed by a demon named Mai." Sana-chan, that's wrong! I am not a demon but my name is Mai, yes! I'm just a oh-so-sweet highschool girl with the tiniest-bit addiction to Otome Games.

"Looks like we need to do the process of exorcising." THAT SOUNDS DANGEROUS, PLEASE NO.

"Woah, woah, wait. There's no need for exorcism." I protest but they all procees to ignore me. Hey, pay attention to me!

"Exorcism is too much hassle, I'm sure the whip will work just fine. It never failed us." The knight man with long hair sighs.

I don't want the whip, what the heck is that even?!

"Pardon me but may I have a say on this?" Sana-chan interrupts them. Does she plans to save me? Sana-chaaaan- huhuhu.

"Go on."

"If Eru-sama is capable of showing us a proof that she is not posessed then do not continue the whip." Sana-chan suggests. Um... How am I supposed to do that? Should I put myself on the Garbage?

"Ever so kind, are you not? Very well, we shall take on your suggestion. We will wait by 8 AM."

Seriously, who's this man with long hair? He is so rude! I feel like he just wants to bully me.

They all leave at once, following the rude Rapunzel man. The two knights release their hold at me and leave. Ow, ow, my arms is finally free. Thought I got sprained.

"Are you okay, my Lady?!" Immediately, Sana-chan comes over my side and asks. Don't act as if you didn't sell me out!

"I am extremely sorry for my rudeness earlier. It was not my purpose to betray you but it was the Knights of Holy Church, I had to be mindful of our situation."

"Knights of the Holy Church? What's with them?"

"They belong to the Jikai Rulers- in the West. Currently, Jikai are known for their unbeatable strength yet arrogance."

Oh, no wonder he has such sour personality.

That's the whole story except I'm currently being locked in my own room as their sideline safety. What do they expect me to do? Haunt them with my eyebags?

𝗔𝗡𝗦𝗪𝗘𝗥. This is not a dream. To answer your question, you cannot leave this world as you have made a deal with K-sama.

"Are you really serious about the fact this is not a dream?"

𝗥𝗘𝗦𝗣𝗢𝗡𝗗. It is undoubtedly correct. Due to your health not coping, you have passed away on your sleep.

"Even if you say that, I can't take it seriously... I did read about Isekai but I never did believe it was true."

𝗦𝗜𝗚𝗛. I am afraid you cannot keep being delusional. This is the reality.

"I'm in Trash Eru's life now, right?"

𝗡𝗢𝗗. Precisely.

"Wait so doesn't that make me a villainess? Gosh, I'm reicarnated as the Trash Villainess!" I sigh.

Times like this makes me feel glad to have K-78 to talk to, it helps me keep my sanity. I can't feel the fact that I'm dead. Am I supoosed to cry? How did my father react, I wonder? Did he cry?

"I just realized... Don't the villain always end up dying?! Are you sure I won't die?"

𝗔𝗡𝗦𝗪𝗘𝗥. That lies on your choices in the future.

"I'm dizzy, I wanna get some fresh air." I stand only to realize the door is locked. Why so mean, everyone? Hmph.

I open the door to my balcony.

"Mhm, the air feels so refreshing yet lonely." I inhale deeply.

"I wanna go to the garden." It's the perfect moment to stroll on the garden.

𝗥𝗘𝗠𝗜𝗡𝗗. It is not the best time to act so leisurely. You still have to prove yourself by tomorrow.

Hm? You guys hear something? Yeah, that's the garden calling us, let's gooo! How can I do that, though? The door is locked and although I won't die from jumping on the balcony, that will definitely sprain me and cause too much noise.

I pull the long white curtain, "Gyuuuuuuu!" until it let go and finally fall.

I start doing what I usually see on every movies. I tie the curtain to something solid very tightly before heading down. I'm never the type of person to love adventures so I'm very lacking in experience.

"Phew." I sigh as I manage to land safely. Good thing, none of my imagination happened.

I tiptoe, making sure to check my surroundings before walking in. There could be some knights guarding. Fufufu, I feel like a ninja.

"What? You accidentally ate the chocolate cake of your daughter?"

I retreat a step and hide upon hearing the voice of a man.

A different voice of a man reply, "Yeah- I was so hungry so I couldn't help myself! And now she's acting as if I'm the worst human being in this world."

Hah, that's what you get for eating her chocolate! Anyways, why are these two knights talking instead of focusing on their work? Slackers.

I need to do find a way to make them leave so I can cross and head for the garden. I'm pretty close already.

I walk very slowly, making sure my footsteps stay inaudible, heading near the forest side. It's really dark so I'm sure they're not able to see me.

I hide behind the tree and grab some rocks before throwing it in the opposite side. The noise catch their attention but they ignore it afterward, too. Oi, oi, what's up with these guards?!

I throw two rocks again. Focus on your work, you slackers!

"Wait, did you hear that?" Knight man #1 asks. Finally, they're paying attention!

The other knight replies, "No, I don't. Anyways, the chocola-"

STOP TALKING ABOUT CHOCOLATE, YOU STUPID KNIGHT! GYAAAAAH.

I really want to throw this rock at his face instead but I can't get caught.

For the last time, I throw the rock really hard which made a much more louder sound. If this fail, I will smack them.

"And you know, the choco-" The chocolate-loving knight chatters but the other party raises his hand.

"Someone's there." He says as he intensely gaze at the direction I threw the rock at. Yes, finally!

They head towards the place of attention. I wait for them to go further before heading closer to the garden.

"Uwaaah." I whisper as I stand in front of the entrance to the garden. I was meant to come here.

The cold air brushes in my skin but it feels only refreshing. I walk deeper.

Unexpectedly, most of the flowers here are red-colored ones. But I can't say it's anything familiar on Earth.

"It smells really good." I sniff the flower.

It smells like the fresh blossom of springs, how wonderful. This is just the perfect way to clear off of your mind from problems.

It's clear that whoever is in charge of the garden actually cares for it.

I'm not a nature person but I just want to stay here forever. With the comfort and solitude, it's a little date between me, the moon and these flowers.

"Who goes there?!"

It was the voice of the knight man with long hair.
