Chapter 2: M’Princess and the Annoying Bandits
Alas, the battle ended and I decided to check back up on that girl. I teleported to the area she was in last time and found her asleep. I smiled and carried her in a princess-style carry, and took off towards my common home. The girl was a yellow-haired blue-eyed beauty that’s also an elf.
Once inside, I had to convince my parents that there’s nothing going on. I carried her to my room without interruptions and laid her on the bed. With a final smile I decided to wait for her to get up with some tea. I remember all of my past life, so I can easily get the materials and make it. Even events I forgot I now remember, clearly.
I went out for the materials and waited for the girl to wake up.
On the way I came across a man who had leather armor on with a belt holding his sword and what was supposed to be a hidden dagger. His friends, looking similar to him, came behind him. I wasn’t near town anymore and there were 5 people in front of me, staring at me with sadistic grins.
“Oi, kid, what are ya doin’ this far from yer mommy?” The leader said. I depicted just how many people this man has stolen from, murdered or raped. I was angry at them. I decided to try to calm down and check his status.

If he only put his pride into his stats. He was weak, incompetent, and a criminal I’ll make suffer. He won’t get away easy.
“I’m here to kill you,” I gave a sadistic grin as I looked their way.
“Who do you thin-” The bandit didn’t finish his sentence as he was thrown into the ear and then smashed to the ground.
Some bandits tried running but I froze them using [Space-time Magic: Halt] and stopped time for me. I took my time and tied them down, and then unfroze time. They were all huddled in a circle, unable to move.
Stolen from Royal Road, this story should be reported if encountered on Amazon.
I checked their record using [Personalized Magic: Crime Check]. Apparently, Personalized Magic was given to only 10% of all mages worldwide. The entire population of the world called Erayth, which is a bad name for a world by the way, is only 2 billion. 75% of those are mages. 75% of the mages are home mages, meaning cannot be combat-worthy magicians. The rest of the 25% are combat mages, and of that 25% only 10% have a Personalized Ability. I was told that they just wake up with it. I asked one of them to give me a name for a Personalized Magic and they gave me an entire book of the current known ones. Things like [Flight] or [Spectate] are the most rare of all of them. I was gifted by the Creator, whom created this world, to have all magic as long as I understand them. I could even make my own with [Spell Create] which costs a whopping 25,000 mana for a single use. That’s without even identifying the type it is.
The record came up similar to all the other ones for the bandits.
RECORD OF BANDIT COMPANY Black Dog Bandits

…
I was so angry. LIna White was at the inn? Wait, is she that girl? I haven’t checked her status yet so it is possible. I decided to not kill them, but give them a painful disease that lasts until you naturally die. Any time you try to commit suicide, it revives you. It was perfect for these bandits.
I smiled and began the curse. I casted [Mass Suffering Disease] and target the bandits. I cast it and it drained 20,000 mana from my 154,000 mana. They began screaming in agony. It does this every 5 hours and it feels like you’re being stabbed in every place in your body.
I teleported into the inn room just as the girl was waking up. I decided to take the time to quickly check her status.

So she’s a princess. It also seems like she triples her stats, I wonder how the bandits caught her off guard. I knew what she went through, so I’ll give it my best shot at protecting her. The title “Untrusting” tells me that she won’t like me immediately, so I have to prove it. I don’t want to see people hurt anymore. I just want to save them. As they say, the white knights guard the princesses.

Lina woke up and stared me in the eyes. It took a minute but her eyes widened in surprise.
“WHO ARE YOU?!” Lina screamed.
“Calm yourself, please. I saved you from an orc earlier, and I brought you here. Remember?” I said.
“Oh, it’s you. Thank you. I forgot to say it earlier, but thank you.”
“It’s no problem. I took care of those bandits as well.”
“The Black Dog Bandits?! How?!”
“I took out their leader. It’ll be awhile before they make another move.”
“I-I see… I thank you. I get frightened easily, they took advantage of that.”
“Oh, well, if you stay with me I’ll help you whenever. If not, I’ll do my best.”
“I will stay with you because I was cast out of my family and I can’t stay anywhere.”
“Then it’s agreed. You stay with me.”
I smiled at my newfound friend.
“Let’s grab some food,” I said and she nodded.
