I Thought I Was The Main Character - Chapter 4

Translated by Lara

After returning from the tea party, my father sighed with a face that had been aged ten years older.
“Aesvin. Why did you act so recklessly?”
Benjamin Samuel, my father, who I belatedly met properly, was not a strong-looking image like a knight.
Since I was possessed by a novel, I thought I would have a swordmaster father, but Aesvin’s father was normal.
The special thing was that he was a little handsome.
I have to say that he felt like a young man who only studied. It was unbelievable he had an 8-year-old daughter.
“Honey, mom was surprised by your behaviour today.”
Aesvin’s mother, Lily Samuel, was also so young and beautiful that it was hard to believe she had children.
Her dark brown eyes with a slight reddish color and sky blue hair were soft colors, as if they showed her delicate personality.
And Aesvin looked exactly like her mother.
In other words, it means that I would also become a beauty in the future.
I knew I was inside a novel, but the sudden appearance of my parents were very unfamiliar.
‘I don’t know what to do.’
Usually in novels, both parents were rarely alive.
If both of them were alive, there would be a harsh environment where they were really trashy parents, but Aesvin’s parents were very normal.
The relationship between the two was very good, and they did everything for their beloved daughter.
So for a moment, I doubted that I was a heroine.
However, I decided to believe in the novel’s law.
Who else would be the main character if I wasn’t the one?
‘I probably just started in a blessed environment.’
“Aesvin, do you really want to be friends with Prince Luciano?”
My father asked with a pale complexion.
“Yes, I want to. Can’t I do that? Did I do something wrong?”
I didn’t regret my actions against Empress Isabelle.
However, their complexion was so bad, so I had no choice but to ask.
It was a situation where I could argue that I didn’t know anything because I’m young, but my parents were different.
I realized it late, but I was worried they could be directly harmed by Empress Isabelle, unlike me.
Did I act too recklessly as soon as I got possessed?
Even if it was going to be solved in the end with the main character buff, it was hard to ignore the hardship right now.
When I felt grim, my father’s hand touched my head.
I lifted my head at the gentle stroking touch.
“No, there’s nothing wrong with you. However, Prince Luciano’s situation is not good.”
I tried to be relieved because they didn’t blame me blindly, but I was a little disappointed at the last words.
“Is that a problem for me to be the prince’s friend? Are you saying that you shouldn’t be friendly with your friends if their circumstances are bad? Didn’t you feel that the situations were strange before?”
The words came out as if unknowingly, and my father’s eyes widened as if he had been hit.
He looked like he realized it wasn’t a bright choice because I didn’t know anything.
“I’m sorry. I made a mistake. That’s not my intention.”
“Mother is sorry too. Honey, we’re just afraid you’ll go through a hard time.”
I didn’t know they would apologize to me.
And it was unfamiliar for me because they worried about Aesvin’s safety rather than their own interests.
I felt so strange.
“The situation earlier was just too cruel to let it go.”
“We know.”
My father and mother had sad faces. They seemed to regret their behavior of not doing anything while knowing everything.
“I can’t leave Prince Luciano alone like that.”
It wasn’t because I’m the main character.
It was hard to keep watching a child being bullied in front of me.
Did you feel my determination?
Father and mother made eye contact with each other. After exchanging glances for a while, my father spoke firmly.
“Our Aesvin grew up really well. Yes, If you want to, you can do whatever you want..”
“Honey, mom will support all of your choices.”
My mother also gently cheered for me rather than blaming me.
I didn’t expect they would allow it this smoothly.
I was so surprised by the reaction that I saw, it was so different from the other nobles I had seen.
The two burst into laughter as they saw me embarrassed being stubborn when they allowed it.
“I’ll help you with whatever you want to do. That’s what a father would do.”
“Mom is always on your side.”
They were people whose faces were pale in front of Empress Isabelle.
Though deep inside they were worried about me confronting someone powerful, the two of them supported me without wavering.
So I comforted the two so that they wouldn’t worry.
“It may be a bit unreasonable for now, but I’m sure it’ll be okay later.”
Because I’m the main character!
I’m going to get a buff!
The two of them widened their eyes and let out a loud laugh at my words.
Then my father stretched out his arms and hugged me firmly.
“You don’t have to worry about that. Father loves you, Aesvin.”
“Honey, mom loves you too. Mom loves you so much.”
I was caught up in an unknown feeling between the two of them.
The affection of parents I experienced for the first time was so reassuring that the tip of my nose wrinkled.
Such perfect love was too much for me.
I was overwhelmed by the warmth of affection.
And I became guilty.
They believe that I was Aesvin and love me like this, but in reality I wasn’t Aesvin.
I was even more sorry that I had to deceive these kind people.
All I could do was hug my loving parents and held back tears.

I was sure there would be strong support from my parents. So I visited Prince Luciano because it seemed the time had passed since the tea party.
“Hello, Prince Luciano.”
I said hello with a smile as brightly as possible.
“You look great today.”
The compliments came out naturally.
I felt it even when we first met, but his appearance was very pretty.
He was so beautiful that it seemed like it would be fun to play dolls with Prince Luciano.
This was the male protagonist’s dignity.
‘Come to think of it, what should we play?’
I only thought about being friends with Prince Luciano, but I didn’t know what to do.
While contemplating for a moment, his red eyes were staring at me without moving.
Prince Luciano, who had been silent for a long time, moved his lips.
“Who said you could come?”
His voice was cold.
… I forgot Prince Luciano had a strong distrust of others before he met the heroine.
Come to think of it, the initial relationship between the female protagonist and Prince Luciano in 『Your Majesty, don’t be obsessed!』was close to an aversion.
The heroine also approached Luciano for her own purpose at first.
And it was a time when Prince Luciano doubted everyone who approached him because the assassination attempts became more and more blatant as he grew older.
Under these circumstances, the first meeting between the two original protagonists just took place, so of course, trust in each other couldn’t have sprouted.
So the two fought quite violently until they got close.
It was true that they hate each other to be called a normal romance novel protagonist, so even while reading it, I wonder if the two of them will have a connection.
There was also a time when I suspected the male lead was Harrison.
Of course, like other romantic novels, the two main characters naturally permeated each other and they turned into ridiculous lovers to the extent that they were considered character collapse at the end of the story.
Anyway, I had completely forgotten about Prince Luciano’s early feistiness.
Still, it was my fault to think complacently that the male protagonist would be pure when he was young.
‘Even if I’m the main character, there’s no way everything will go smoothly.’
It seems that I only believed in the main character’s buff and handled it too easily.
Surprised by Prince Luciano’s unexpected coldness, I firmly held myself together.
Originally, the early narrative was a bit difficult.
I could say this because I am the main character.
Prince Luciano will fall for me.
With that determination, I smiled broadly.
“Prince Luciano agreed to be close with me before.”
You said you were going to be friends with me back then.
I smiled brightly with a ‘I don’t know the world’s dirtiness’ pure face.
“….”
Instead of answering, he stared at me.
I felt it before, but Prince Luciano looked at people too openly.
Even now, his red eyes stared at me thoroughly, as if he were trying to find out if my smile was pretentious.
I pulled the corner of my mouth to the point where I felt like I was going to have convulsions on my cheeks.
Kindness is the best way for dissolving crankiness!
“I didn’t say that it was okay to come rashly.”
However, Prince Luciano was too powerful.
‘Tha-that’s right. He didn’t say I could come.’
My smile loosened because it was true.
Still, you decided to be friends with me.
Even though I didn’t expect to be welcomed, this seemed too much.
“How do we get along if we can’t meet?”
Even though I protested vehemently.
“That doesn’t mean you’re coming in without permission. I’m busy, so you should go back.”
Prince Luciano’s iron wall was hard.
He turned around and left without giving me a cup of tea.
I couldn’t believe I was left alone, so I sat blankly for a while.
I realized that if I wasn’t this rude, even a friendly smile would be useless.
And the more I thought about it, the more unfair I felt.
I have clearly informed in correspondence that I would visit today.
Of course, I didn’t hear the answer, but I thought I could come because I didn’t receive rejection.
‘I didn’t know that you would just ignore it!’
I was so upset by my loss.
Still, it wasn’t like I didn’t do anything wrong at all, so I decided to go back today.
I couldn’t play alone in the drawing room without the owner.
Let’s not be impatient.
In the original work, Prince Luciano and the female protagonist clashed a lot and became close.
If I work hard, we will be able to get closer someday.
I believed so.
