The Magic Queen of Another World

Chapter 2

At noon, Luyao was indeed waiting at the door for me. I packed up my things and walked out alongside him.

"Look, is Manager Lu dating Yang Yisha?"

"Yes, they look so sweet together." ...

The office was abuzz with whispers. "Sweet?" I was speechless. =.=||| How could they think we look sweet together? Huh? Why is there a wolf claw on my waist? I slapped his hand away with a snap, glaring fiercely at him. He immediately looked at me with a wronged expression, instantly arousing the protective instincts of the women around.

"Are you doing this on purpose?" I asked him in a lowered voice.

"What do you think?" He blinked and took my hand as we walked out of the company.

"Where are we going for lunch?" I asked, looking at Luyao's handsome profile.

"Just follow me." He didn't say much, walking ahead.

As I stared at his back, I realized I had never noticed there was someone right in front of me all this time, someone who had been carving out a place in my world.

"Yisha, move!" Luyao's voice brought me back to reality. I looked ahead blankly, only to see a speeding car heading towards me. My legs felt heavy as if they were filled with lead, unable to move. Just as the car was about to hit me, a figure pushed me aside. When I looked forward again, blood was flowing everywhere, threatening to burn my eyes.

"Luyao!" I trembled and shouted, running over to hug his bleeding body. "How could this happen?" I looked at his now pale face.

"Why?" I muttered to myself, "Luyao, wake up, it's all my fault, it's all my fault!"

"It's not your fault." Luyao slowly opened his eyes and looked at me. "There's no 'why,' it's just because I love you!"

"You love me?" I couldn't believe it, how could he possibly like me? I've always been alone, no one would care about me, and no one would love me!

"Silly, of course I love you. Everyone knows it, except you." Luyao smiled, but his face grew even paler.

"What should we do? You've lost a lot of blood, oh right, doctor, find a doctor!" I shouted loudly. Someone had already called 911. Soon, an ambulance arrived and took Luyao away. He tightly held my hand, and the last thing I heard him say was, "I'll never let go of your hand." Then he fell into a coma.

My head felt heavy and my eyes seemed unable to open. I only managed to say, "Save him!" before losing all consciousness.

Later, I felt my body floating, my head felt dizzy. When I opened my eyes again, I was lying on soft velvet. The room was luxurious, European palace style. I blinked. Where am I?

I rubbed my forehead and tousled my hair, suddenly realizing. Holding my hair up to my eyes, how could it be a light purple color? I have never dyed my hair before! Glancing around the room again, I was fine until I looked; now I was completely startled. A thick wool blanket lay on the ground, a luxurious large bed, even the curtains were the softest silk, and there was that silver-framed vanity, the gilded-edged mirror reflecting violet hair like amethyst, clear eyes, fair skin, delicate features of a young beauty. Yes, the face in the mirror seemed to be my own!

I was somewhat incredulous. I touched my face, and the person in the mirror mimicked my action. Looking at my body again, it was that of a young girl who hadn't fully developed, probably around ten years old. Yet even so young, her beauty was evident. I, a professional in a modern corporate world, twenty years of age, now transformed into a young girl—truly fantastical.

But this place appeared to be wealthy. Looking at the walls adorned with gold and gems, I drooled uncontrollably. For me, the allure of money was irresistible, especially that large crystal on the wall—so beautiful. I propped up my small body, straining to reach the crystal. Almost there, keep going, I encouraged myself. My hand almost touched the crystal— "Ah!" I screamed and fell to the ground. However, hehe~~ I giggled foolishly at the crystal in my hand. I wondered how much money this piece of crystal could fetch if sold!

"Did you hear that? There's a voice inside!" Faint voices came from the door. I looked up, suddenly seeing many maids dressed like attendants rushing in. Their faces were filled with astonishment, murmuring, "Miss Lisa is awake! My goodness, it must be a gift from the gods. Quickly, tell the Duke and Duchess!"

Watching them come in and help me onto the bed, my mind still hadn't caught up. What Duke and Duchess? Where am I right now? It finally dawned on me that this body was not mine, this place unfamiliar, the people here with hair colors so different, clearly foreigners. All this indicated that I had transmigrated, and it was a glamorous one at that. The people here spoke in accents I'd never heard, yet strangely, I understood perfectly. Was this one of the perks of transmigration? I sighed and decided to go with the flow. Since I'm here now, who knows if I can go back? For now, I'll just observe quietly and find out who owns this body.

"Oh, it's Lisa! Lisa has woken up, my goodness!" a plump voice exclaimed, and before I could see who it was, I was engulfed in a hug.

"Oh, my Lisa, my little princess, you're finally awake!" I heard the woman's voice choke with tears. Lisa, she called the owner of this body Lisa? I was momentarily confused, unsure if this was reality or a dream. The name Lisa echoed countless times in my dreams, called out with that round voice. The embrace in my dreams felt as warm as it did now, a feeling I had never experienced before—so warm. I instinctively hugged the woman back, feeling her joy too. This feeling was a deep, familial bond!

After a while, the woman released me and stroked my hair. I looked up to see her—a truly beautiful noblewoman. Beside her stood a handsome man in his thirties, his eyes also slightly red but filled with love as he gazed at me.

"Lisa, our darling daughter, you've been asleep for ten years. Today, you've finally awakened," the man's voice rang out slowly, clearly filled with immense excitement.

"Me?" I spoke and realized I sounded just like them, with no language barriers whatsoever. Well, that was a relief at least—I could communicate without difficulty.

"You're our daughter," the man said, sitting beside me and taking my hand. "I'm your father, Raymond Beps, and she is your mother, Cathy. You've been asleep since birth, as predicted by the great prophet Itu, who said you would awaken on your tenth birthday, and indeed, today you have."

"Who is this prophet Itu?" I wondered silently. If he could predict, could he explain why I appeared in this world?

"Itu was the greatest prophet, but he passed away a few days ago," Cathy said, holding me close.

"Passed away?" I frowned. Did this mean there were no more clues?

"Lisa, you haven't called us yet!" Cathy looked at me expectantly.

Not wanting to see her disappointed, I called out, "Mother."

She immediately teared up, stood up and spun around in circles. "Darling, did you hear that? Our baby called me!"

"I saw it. Our baby is the best," Raymond smiled, his face more defined with joy.

"Father," I softly called.

Raymond beamed with happiness. "Darling, say it again."

"Father," I repeated.

"Haha, Cathy, our daughter is the most beautiful angel!" Seeing Raymond and Cathy so happy, I couldn't help but laugh softly. It felt good to have parents. Perhaps coming to this world wasn't such a bad thing after all! I just wanted to say thank you for bringing me into this world, this world where I am loved by my parents!

Due to the weakness of this ten-year-old body, I could only lie on that luxurious bed for several days, accompanied by feasting on gourmet meals every day. As Mother said, "Darling, you must eat more to make up for what you missed before!" Her loving expression made my eyes moisten unexpectedly. I hadn't realized how wonderful it would feel to have a mother! Indeed, I hadn't grown up at all!

I smiled. These days, I wasn't idle either. I chatted with the maids and asked about this world. It was completely different from the world I came from, truly a different world.

There are mainly four continents here: the Oks Continent, the Tanique Continent, the Vissa Continent, and the Rurubal Continent. I am currently in the Vissa Continent, the most prosperous of the four continents. Oks is the largest in terms of territory, Tanique is not as rich as Vissa nor as large as Oks but is the most militarily powerful. The last one, Rurubal, is the 'neutral capital,' maintaining friendly relations with each continent.

Mother once mentioned that we are currently in the Duke's mansion in the capital city of Sastan in the Vissa Continent. King Keikoulis Sastan is a benevolent ruler who loves his people.

Just look at the bustling city of Sastan to understand. The name of Sastan's city also bears witness to the glory of King Keikoulis's life. Although the four continents appear harmonious on the surface, there are unstable factors. Perhaps I am just being overly cautious, but for now, I will enjoy my beautiful life. However, my father, the Duke, has a good reputation among the nobles and is quite famous. I heard many people are curious about the ten-year slumbering girl in the Duke's mansion. In any case, to outsiders, I appear mysterious. Moreover, to protect me, my father and mother have never disclosed my identity. Only those in the Duke's mansion know me; others only know that I, the awakened person, but not my appearance. I think this is good; at least there won't be any trouble.
