Chapter 3

Start writing your story

"The screen shows Latte Taking out stacks of paper with a quill. There are pages flying round as she writes full pages for her novel.


"I've never been good at speed reading and now I can shorthand."


The screen is now cut to a bookstore with girls fangirling over the book. The screen than shows a girl talking to a cashier.


"Where's the "Wandering knight Edwin"?!"


"I'm sorry It's still in the press..."


"WAIT YOU SAID THAT IT WAS IN THE PRESS THE LAST TIME TOO!!!!!!"


"AGHHH DON'T PULL MY HAIR!!"


Back outside the store you can see a group of girls talking civily.


"Did you hear? Rumour has it that a sequel's coming out?"


Now you can see Latte with a hat and a jacket. 'Due to my unbelievable hard work, my first work was selling like hot cakes. It didn't take long for it to get to #1 recording of the most number copies sold in the Bimor genre. The publisher in charge of my work welcomed the news with open arms, I was ranking in unbelievable amounts of money at the age of fifteen. The screen shows Latte holding a pile of gold diabolically laughing. "


"She started this at fifteen?!!"


Princess asked kind of flustered. People played it off as being shocked about how successful she was, but knowing the contents of said book she was shocked how dirty minded Latte was at such a young age.


"So that was where she got all that money from."


Esula said with no expression in her voice as she clutched her head. Everyone look on in either pity or empathy.


" 'To this day, copies of "The wondering knight Edwin" Ate sold at even higher prices' Latte is humming to herself as Esula comes on screen.


"Miss, what are you reading, you're smiling so much!"


To that question Esula was ignored left questing what was going on. After a few minutes Latte responded.


"Huh..? Its you, Esula I was just reading a letter hahaha..." "


Esula was flushed at her sudden appearance on screen finding it quite embarrassing. As Bishot was blushing for another reason.


" ' Father is usually benevolent. But he's still conservative enough to stop me from publishing Bimor novels... If blabber mouth Esula knew, the secret would get out in a heartbeat.' "


"I am not a blabber mouth!!!"


Esula was quick to defend herself whilst looking at the screen in astonishment Latte would say such things about her.


" "Oh right Miss! You're going to attend the tea party, right?"


Esula suddenly spoke up.


"Oh yeah right.. I forgot about it."


"Since we have plenty of time, we can prepare slowly. I'll fix your hair first."


Esula is shown taming the untamable that was Latte's hair. 'Woah this is the handiwork of a true master..! The only one who can tame my disastrous curls, is you Esula! I love you so much!!!'


Latte is shown smiling as Esula is shown slaving away combing her hair. "


"It is not that big of a deal"


Esula said clutching her face hoping her screen time will go down soon.


"That is quite impressive."


Arwin said in mild amazement.


"You have to be very skilled to comb that rats-nest of hair."


"Hey her hair is not like a rats-nest"


Again the princess came to her defense. Though there were other Latte fans in the theatre no one really tried to rebuttal Arwin because Latte's hair always cosplayed a nest that just got swept away by a hurricane.


" 'If it wasn't for her mouth, she would've been just perfect..' "


":o"


Esula now really wanted to get off the screen.


" "TADA!!! You're all set how is it?"


The screen shows Latte beaming.


"Of course I like it! Esula you're the savior of my social gatherings."


"Oh no~ My pleasure miss~"


"What dress shall I wear?"


"You'll look great in anything ,my pretty lady."


"Really?? AWW, thanks."


'I cannot hare her although I know it's an obvious comment to flatter me.


"Miss, how about you put this on and waer the Topaz necklace."


"yeah all right."


"I'll prepare the blush you bought the last time."


'I look 100 times better than when I was Kim Hyejung..' The screen shows a skeletal image of Kim with her friend laughing at her. "A middle schooler can pit on make up way better than you!" "


"Pardon me, no matter how sweet this is, why are we reacting to this? Does this have any meaning or help regarding this?"

Kenneth spoke. Of course he got no response but some glares from a certain magician and princess.


" "Than I'll be back"


"Have a safe trip!"


It shows Latte with a guard. 'Ahh so annoying! It is within walking ditance and I have a guard.'


"Latte.. you have to come home safely...!"


Called Latte's mother. 'Sir Hans is quite handsome, has a nice body and is a kind man, but.. He's too shiny.' "


'Should I kill him?'


Was Arwin's first thought the second Latte started praising the man. Not really knwing why it bothered him, but still willing to end said mans life.


" "We have arrived at count Olive's residence"


Spoke Hans snapping Latte out of her thoughts.


"But it's really close; only took like 3 seconds, Hello."


"It's been a while lady Ectrie."


"Good to see you, lady Olive. Have you been well?"


"Nothing unusual. How about you?"


"I'm fine too. Thank you for inviting me.


"No problem. Please take a seat."


"Latte."


"Oh my, Cano!!"


"the Castella's delicious" "


A small curse echoes in the background. And with another sound of a snap a girl appears out of thin air.


"WHERE AM I?"


Exclaimed Cano as she looked on to see a group of people. Immediatly regretting her outburst when she spots the crown prince. She blushes and than gets teleported to a seat. With no answer she speaks up again.


"Seriously where am I?"


"We are in a theatre currently examining lady Latte's life."


Spoke Bishot.


"Fair enough... Why?"


"We don't know we were all brought here against our will like you"


Spoke matter-of-factly by Arwin, in what looked like a way to tell her to shut up, which if that was his goal, he succeeded.


" "Did you save this for me? Thanks!"


"I am sure you all know why we have gathered here today."


Latte is shown tilting her head in confusion 'Huh? WHy's she skipping the food introduction? That's very unlike her'


"Of course. Isn't it because of the Princess Roseline's birthday banquet in two weeks?"


'The author must have rummaged through the kitchen because of the supporting role's name' It shows Latte looking at season dressing and laughing to go to unamused. The screen showing 'Ameri Cano and Latte' "


"What do you mean author?"


Cano spoke in a questioning tone.


"Well we are basically a bunch of novel characters in one world and Latte or Kim is someone who transmitted into this world becoming Latte"


"WHAT?"


Cano threw an outburst to Kenneth's strangely calm explanation.


"WE ARE NOVEL CHARACTERS?!! WHY ARE YOU ALL SO CALM ABOUT THIS??"


Everyone kind of just shrugged already coming to terms with their current situation. Besides why would four out of the seven be scared they were the main characters. After 10 minutes Cano calmed down and the film continued to play.


" "Correct. The banquet hosted by the imperial family is highly important. Because.."

"Crown prince Rondemio will be attending."

Olive stated finished by lady Canola. While eating Latte adds on.


"Rondemio? Come to think of it, there's no originality in the name. Isn't his name just extended version of "Romeo"


"I've heard that as well, but I wasn't sure if it was true.."


The lady's spoke avoiding the incoherent mumbling that was Latte. 'Ugh. I don't blame you. I still have yet to see even a sign of him.'


"However, it will be real this time. This year princess Roseline turns seventeen. They means it's the princess' coming-of-age banquet."


Latte is shown spitting out her food. 'Oh my gosh.. I can't believe I've forgotten about this! The seventeenth birthday party for princess Roseline is, where the heroine Ibelin appears for the first time and dramatically runs into male lead 1 at the same time!'


"Oh my that is"


"There's really a possibility?"


"We'll finally get to meet his highness Rondemio."


"I must admit I'm looking forward to it. Rumor has it that there will never be a handsome man as him.."


"I've been told that you mustn't eye other men for quite a while after having seen his highness' face. For they'll suddenly look like seafood rather than humans haha.."


"Lady Olive haven't you met his highness once? How was it?"


Cano is shown interested as Latte seems to be the polar opposite during this conversation. "


Cano couldn't help but turn red as her pining for the crown prince was shown to everybody especially the crown prince!! But the crown prince seemed to not be affected by the compliments and pining.


" "His face was truly, you can't dare imagine his beauty without actually seeing for yourself... blah, blah yada-yada."


'Hmm, how did the novel describe him? Platinum blond hair, radiant like the rays of sunlight with eyes as deep and blue as the sea... I think..? In short Rondemio was a blonde-haired and blue-eyed man. I remember that the way the male lead 1 described in the novel, indeed had been the typical fairy tale prince. What will he really look like?' She is snapped out of it through the others lady's' murmuring.


"Oh yeas, I will be ordering a dress from the Eture salon."


"Why I've actually made a reservation at the Aritare salon"


"I personally like the Mire salon."


A bunch of dresses appeared on screen with Latte thinking whilst eating 'Oh, now we're instantly moving on to dresses to wear to the banquet. But then again it's be weird if we wore the same brands.'


"How about you Latte? What brand are you going to wear?"


"Oh um, I dunno~? I'll probably be going yo Andre's shop~"


'When my answers were required I responded with lukewarm reactions and killed my time.'


"I Had a lovely time lady Olive."


"Me wtoo. My time was very well spent thanks to you."


"Please invite me again to another one of your tea parties. I'd love to be back."


'Lady Olive is pretty arrogant and since she led long grudges, I offered her just the right amount of flattery as my good-bye' "


Cano couldn't help but laugh at how painfully true that statement was. Which got her a few glances from the others, but that didn't really bother her.


" "Indeed it is much enjoyable to talk with people you fit in with. You think so too right miss?"


The knight spoke up laughing.


"Ahahaha, yeah well you're right."


Latte responded rather dryly.


"I'm back~"


"Latte~ come on in. Was the tea party fun?"


"Yes of course. I'm a bit tired... I'll go up to rest!"


"Sure"


"I can't believe the evet that I was looking forward to is just around the corner... my heart is racing."


"To be continued" "


"That's it??!!"


Cano shouted out.


"yeah the chapters seem to be quite short.."


Arwin responded.


"At least we will be getting to the important and interesting stuff soon."


Replied Rondemio.


"How long will this take..?"


Asked Bishot not expecting to get a response.


"Well there is 139 chapters so probably a long time. 178 chapters including the side chapters."


"WHAT??!!"


Everyone screamed but the got cut off by the playing of the next chapter.
