Blessing Of Yuri Goddess

Chapter 40: Volume 2 - Prolog - Genius and Beautiful Royal Princess

A horse-drawn carriage stopped in front of the royal palace. The symbols and flags on the carriage signified the highest position of all royal members.

Behind the carriage door that suddenly opened forcibly, a hard kick was seen that damaged the entrance door, and a loud crashing sound was heard.

Braaak!!

Wuush!!

Along with the fall of the broken entrance door that flew freely, the figure of a young girl in a royal dress and crown ran fast toward the entrance of the royal palace. Every step she took caused a small commotion among the residents of the royal palace.

The young-looking girl ran through the long corridors until she stopped at a tightly closed room door with various barrier symbols that restricted access.

The girl arranged her slightly messy hair after running fast and seemed to have a gentle expression with a charming smile like a Queen of the Kingdom.

With one small kick that did not use magical energy, the door that protected the room was shattered into pieces and an unpleasant stench spread out through it.

From behind the tightly closed door, the body of a little girl was seen sleeping soundly. Her body was covered with black lumps of flesh and pus bubbles that were about to burst. Her physical condition was worsened by the smell of the medicine bottles that were around her bed.

Hearing a small commotion that occurred at the entrance to her room, the little girl slowly opened her eyes. It was useless because she no longer had eyes to see. There was only a lump of rotten black eyeballs left behind her eyelids.

"Good morning, Anastasia," the soft and soothing voice came from a ruler of a kingdom with the title Queen Victoria Rie VII.

The soft voice was answered with a sweet smile from the little girl. Once again, the smile seemed useless because her entire face was covered with lumps of flesh and pus bubbles that covered her sweet smile. From behind the destroyed face, there was a small twitching hole, it was the mouth of the little girl named Anastasia Rio who was trying to answer her mother's call.

"Good morning, Mama. Will today be the day I die?" replied Anastasia with a cheerful tone covered by sadness after feeling the suffering of her illness.

"Heeeh~ are you ready to die?" Victoria replied in a cheerful tone, ignoring her beloved daughter's sadness.

"Mom, why do you sound so happy when you say those hurtful words?" behind the face covered by the disease. Victoria realized a small smile from her beloved daughter who looked pouts after responding to her little sarcasm.

"Don't worry, this medicine will work," Victoria said with full confidence.

"Haaah~ another strange medicine? Whose medicine is it now? An old hermit who has lived for hundreds of years and lives in a remote forest? Or an Alchemist who found an eternal medicine? Oh! Could it be a forest witch who is obsessed with making strange potions without side effects?" Anastasia said with a barrage of sarcasm.

"Um... Anastasia.. Do you still hold a grudge against those con artists? I have to admit, it was your father's fault for easily believing their lies."

"There's no way I would hate the best decision of my parents. I would even take medicine from those con artists in the hope of a cure. Even though all that effort was in vain. Maybe... it's time for me to give up my youth with my death-" before Anastasia finished her words. Victoria poured the Elixir liquid into her mouth.

Gluuuupp...

"Ukrr!! Hukk!!" Anastasia choked a little when she forcibly drank the potion.

"Ugh.. what is this? It tastes quite good?"

"Eh? Good? Since when did the strange liquid that entered my mouth taste good?"

"Mama... Are you trying to poison me with sweet honey?"

"Guhh!! M-My body feels hot.. Mama.. goodbye!"

"I-I love you."

The Elixir liquid that passed through Anastasia's throat tasted very sweet and refreshing. The effect of the Elixir liquid began to work to cleanse the disease that was eating away at Anastasia's body from the inside.

The disease that Anastasia suffered from was no ordinary disease. It was a combination of curses and dark magic that created active disease magic for the rest of her life.

Anastasia was the First Princess of the Aurora Kingdom. Anastasia is now seven years old and suffers from a disease that is difficult to explain by magical law.

Anastasia got the disease from an incident that she will never forget.

It started at a dinner party that led her to the disease. Someone had hired the services of an Assassin with the main purpose of killing the First Princess of the Aurora Kingdom using a disease that distorted her appearance.

Anastasia was not an ordinary girl who became a Crown Princess of the Kingdom before being handed over to her younger brother, because of her graceful physical appearance and extraordinary intelligence, it had made her a very perfect Princess of the Kingdom.

Several young princes from other kingdoms began to glance at her and the competition between kingdoms to win Anastasia's heart had begun when she was five years old.

At that time, several princes of other kingdoms began to compete to propose to her and that was what caused her to get the strange disease from an Assassin who was assigned to eliminate the love competition.

The jealousy experienced by other girls made her acquainted with the disease. Luckily, Anastasia had an above-average brain capacity. With her extensive knowledge in all areas of kingdom management, Anastasia was able to become a Royal Advisor who determined the rules and laws that applied in the Aurora Kingdom while fighting her disease from behind the shadows.

The glory of the Aurora Kingdom was fully held by the First Princess of their Kingdom. A little girl who can become a threat to the neighboring kingdom and the wisdom that sleeps from behind the shadows. Until the terrible incident happened at the dinner party and became a great trauma that left a mark on Anastasia's memory.

For the first time, she was stabbed with a curse that dragged her into an ugly princess covered in disgusting lumps of flesh.

Thanks to that ugly physical appearance, a room was created to accommodate her under the strict supervision of the King and Queen of the Aurora Kingdom.

A miracle happened after Anastasia swallowed the Elixir liquid that passed through her throat.

Anastasia's body suddenly emitted a golden light. The flow of black magic in her body slowly came out and clumped in the air. The black flow of magic gave off an unbearable stench as the source of her illness.

Her body which was filled with lumps of black flesh and pus bubbles slowly shrank as if purified by the blessing of the Goddess. The appearance of a disgusting monster slowly disappeared and revealed the smooth body of a beautiful girl who radiated the beauty of an innocent girl without sin.

The appearance of Anastasia's body which changed into a normal girl's figure had exceeded the beauty of her old body. The black magic flow disappeared as if swallowed by the holy air.

"Haah... Haaa... What is this?" Anastasia exhaled heavily as if waking up from a nightmare.

"Anastasia.." Victoria called her beloved daughter.

"Mmmmph~" Anastasia who did not realize her body's appearance had changed only mumbled softly as usual in response to her mother's call.

"Anassssstaaaaasssiiiiaaaa.." Victoria slightly lowered the strength in her voice to attract her daughter's attention.

"Hiiieekkk!!" Anastasia who woke up after hearing the terrifying sound hurriedly got up from her bed reflexively.

"How long are you going to lie on the bed? There is a lot of work that has piled up and needs a lot of advice from you!" said Victoria in a firm tone.

"What are you talking about, Mom? My physical condition doesn't allow me to do that work.. right now.. eh?" Anastasia who had gotten up from her bed stood still after realizing her light weight.

"Um.. is this what it feels like to die? My brain seems to be hallucinating. Oh! So that's it! Is this the phase toward the realm of death?

Hooray!!"

Anastasia patted the back of her hand and pinched it.

"Auuu!! It hurts too for just an illusion?" Anastasia felt the back of her hand which felt sore and accidentally saw a reflection of herself in the mirror...

"Wow! Who is this beautiful girl? Hello, sweet girl.. what's your name?" Anastasia's gaze was fixed on the mirror in front of her.

"..."

"..."

"..."

"Are you done praising yourself?" said Victoria who was standing beside Anastasia and getting ready to drag her to work.

"Kyaaa!! Don't surprise me, Mama!" shouted Anastasia who was surprised after her gaze was fixed on the mirror in front of her.

"Wait a minute! What just happened?" asked Anastasia in a surprised tone.

"Haaah~ I just found a medicinal potion that can cure your illness," replied Victoria. Although her tone sounded indifferent, it was the relief of a mother who saw her child recover from a serious illness that she had suffered from since early childhood.

"Umm... Mama?" Anastasia looked at Victoria with a confused expression.

"W-Who are you? Why does your voice sound so similar to the Queen of the Aurora Kingdom?" Anastasia asked, slowly walking backward when she saw her mother's much younger appearance without any wrinkles of aging.

"Fufu~ it is what did your beautiful mother look like when she was young?" Victoria smiled as she answered Anastasia's question.

"Aaahh.. This must be my hallucination," Anastasia rubbed her eyes as if she couldn't believe the sight in front of her.

"W-What just happened? My brain seems can't comprehend the situation!" Anastasia exclaimed, still thinking that this was just an illusion of her death.

"Haaah~ it will take a very long time. Now.. put on your clothes and listen to my long story!" Victoria ordered.

"Uh.. Um... Okay.." Anastasia, who was very confused by this strange incident, could only follow her orders.

Anastasia opened the wardrobe containing a thick layer of robes. She looked for clothes that were suitable to wear. During her illness, she was only able to survive by drinking holy water from the Saintess of the Aurora Kingdom. Then she grew into a girl whose identity was kept secret by the royal family members.

Because of her ugly appearance, she kept various thick robes to cover her disgusting body.

However, in her body condition that had changed into a beautiful one like this. Anastasia was a little confused when looking for suitable clothes to show off her body after she stopped fantasizing about the illusion of her death.

"Um... Mama.. Can I borrow some of your youth clothes for now?"

"Eh? That's a very old style of clothing. Ah! That's right! I almost forgot! Try wearing this.." Victoria realized with a cloth bag tied around her waist.

From behind the cloth bag, there was a set of school uniforms that looked foreign in this world.

"Umm.. how do I wear it?" Anastasia looked at the clothes she received from her mother. A strange-shaped outfit and the first time she saw it.

"Fufu~ just leave it to Mama!"

"Eh... Eeeh!!"

Victoria helped Anastasia wear the school uniform given by Lily.

Lily wanted to give a souvenir in the form of a sweet chocolate parcel. However, Ciel and Sia finished all the sweet chocolate treats without leaving any trace, and Lily was forced to give them souvenirs in the form of school uniforms from another world.

For some one reason like seeing the cuteness of the girl wearing the school uniform, the Goddess suggested Lily give a set of school uniforms to Victoria and forced Lily to wear the school uniform too.

Thanks to the school uniform that Lily had worn before, Victoria understood how to wore her uniform. In between their small activities, Victoria told some small incidents about Lily and her little pact to become her Pet Queen.

"Huh? A five-year-old girl can order you around like that?"

"Wait! What do you mean by making a rule for marriage between women?"

"W-What has happened to this kingdom?!"

Anastasia's mind was spinning rapidly with the unexpected change in her kingdom.
