Things happen in life
In life, there are days like this.
Whatâs the probability of finding my favorite character while walking down the street? Whatâs the probability of encountering my favorite character coincidentally from another country or another world who doesnât live in the same country?
âI thought I would be a failing maniac.â
So-called âManiacs canât get luckyâ.
I thought there was the phenomenon of only maniacs canât become lucky but that wasnât it.
My body was trembling as my favorite character was speaking and breathing clearly in front of me.
âFavorite character. Favorite. My favorite!â
I stared at manâs face while calming myself from becoming excited.
The face I imagined every day exists in front of me.
My favorite character which I encountered in my imagination through text is breathing and talking in front of me!
It is beautiful that it gives me goosebumps but he has eyes that will cut me if I touch them.
The eyes which look like glass beads staring at me didnât have any emotions which appeared scary.
The shiny golden eyes seemed like starlight at night time in the sky.
It was a different beauty than I imagined and I lost my words.
Dear author, you didnât mention that it is this beautiful!
âWho are you?â
A quiet voice spoke to me.
Oh god, his voice is great as well! It was better than I imagined. I instinctively began to make a sad face and the man seemed to be restless.
That face felt like he doesnât prefer me crying.
How can he be so handsome?
I have confidence that I wonât get sick and tired if I see him every day. I prefer the middle-aged version of him, but with you I will love no matter who you are!
âI asked who you are.â
As I continued to not to give any response, the man furrowed his eyebrows.
I was out of breath as his face looked handsome even when he frowned his eyebrows.
I canât help it. I try to keep it to myself but I canât stand this feeling!
âDad!â
I ran towards the man at once.
In this world, I was never loved by someone nor gave love to someone.
He is the most pitiful man.
Also, the only person who I love the most more than anyone in this world.
I felt the man who was sitting comfortably becoming stiff.
He was holding his breath instantly and appeared surprised.
âDad!â
ââ¦.Who are you calling dad?â
The man asked back in an absurd voice. It must feel quite absurd for an unmarried man.
I smiled gently and made eye contact with him. I felt a strong pressure in his golden eyes but even that was really fun for me.
âHey. Dad.â
When I hugged the man, the man looked at me dumbfounded.
It doesnât work even if you look at me like that.
I will never give up.
âDad~!â
I donât know if he gave up at last but he quit getting rid of me.
I looked up at the man who was sighing quietly and I thought I wouldnât regret if I died right now.
This is my first meeting with my dad who I love the most yet he will become a tyrant.
There are many things which happened that cannot understood in this world.
Yesterday, my cellphone broke and today I became 6 years old.
âItâs better to get the cellphone destroyed rather than becoming 6 years old when waking up.â
Iâm experiencing the most ridiculous things in my life right now.
I put my face on a window ceiling and looked outside the window. It looked a bit odd but I couldnât do much as Iâm not tall.
The scene I see outside the window was completely different from the world I knew so far.
âOf course, itâs different! Here is a different part of the world!â
Wide field and blue sky. Even high-class guests entering from the main road along with small villages which can be seen afar.
Numerous people and cars did not invade the roads or tall buildings.
I was relieved and despaired at the same time as this wasnât a dream while looking outside the window which differed from what I knew to be true.
âAlready 1 month has passed! It wonât be realistic to dream vividly like this for a month.â
I was looking at the scene which was unique and unfamiliar then put my face away from the window ceiling. Afterward, I looked at my small hands.
At first, I was very confused.
I couldnât understand the situation immediately so it hasnât been long since Iâve been crying and wanting to go back.
However, one thing made me become conscious.
âMelkiade!â
Thatâs seeing my favorite character.
It must be Godâs will to meet my favorite character while trying to escape thinking that it is a movie set or the Truman show.
âGod fulfilled my wish!â
Itâs good that I go to bed after praying to God every night.
âThe world with my favorite character.â
Then, there is only one conclusion.
I have entered inside a novel and Iâm the main character of this novel.
âNormally the main character will be very happy.â
Unfortunate news but this was a novel which makes the female character to suffer because the author wants to write so-called realistic fantasy.
âSob.â
There is no smooth pathway despite being the main character!
âWell itâs okay.â
Because my favorite character lives here.
âCrying. Light and saltâ¦.â
There wonât be any love like this.
While living my life, I donât have any memories of waiting for updates on web novels nor waiting impatiently for a spinoff. It was the first time looking for authorâs blogs and social media.
It was the moment when I was crying in joy with the opportunity to meet my favorite character once again.
âWoman Saint Yeha! Why are you standing here again like this!â
I became conscious after hearing the familiar voice.
Luciana ran to me with surprise in her voice.
She moved my body away from leaning towards the window.
Luciana, who is my maid and takes care of me, looked at me with a firm facial expression.
It was strong but I gently smiled at Luciana.
âSmileâ
ââ¦.It doesnât work even if smile at me like that.â
Damn, it worked until yesterday.
I canât believe she didnât fall for my cuteness; she is strong!
As I stared at her with surprise, Luciana made a firm commitment and looked at me with a scary face.
âPlease donât look outside in a dangerous posture like that. Do you understand?â
I had to just nod to what Luciana was saying.
âYou do realize that today is an important day?â
âI know, I know.â
âThen, have a seat. I will get you ready.â
As Luciana spoke, I sat quietly. Soon, there was clothing with golden thread with patterns in front of me.
Thatâs the clothes only âWoman Saintâ can wear.
âYou will wear this.â
âYes.â
I just wore what Luciana gave me and I was recalling the most important problem right now.
âI must survive.â
Pricilla, the main character of this novel and who is also myself is a tragic heroine who dies after being used by people for being nice.
âI canât live like that.â
Iâm sorry to the author of this novel but I donât want to live like Pricilla.
I donât want to have a meaningless death like that.
In order to do so, it is important to survive safely.
âI must carefully decide the family I will be adopted into!â
At last, today is decision day.
âFinally, todayâ¦â¦â
The day has come.
When I arrived at the giant temple guided by Luciana, there was the Pope and 12 elders already.
When I entered the temple, everyone stood and bowed to me.
âWelcome, Yeha.â
It was hard for me to receive greetings from seniors who have grey hair since Iâm from a society where it is required to respect the elders.
I laughed awkwardly and nodded twice. This made elders smile in happiness.
âYou look cute today as well.â
âItâs sad to send you off to elsewhere.â
âTradition is tradition so we donât have any choice.â
âMay God bless Yeha anywhere she goes.â
After getting blessings from the elders I stood in front of the Pope. Pope Raphael is an elderly person as well.
âWelcome Saint Woman Yeha.â
âYes, your Holiness Pope.â
The Pope laughed happily and asked me with a happy smile.
âDo you know what today is?â
âYes!â
Of course, I know. Today is the day where I decide my family.
All Saint Women must leave their religious body and return after seeing the big world. Thatâs why I must choose a family to look after me until I become an adultâ¦â¦
âItâs not like choosing randomly from a box but I have to choose my family by luck.â
In original work, Pricilla failed her life because she chose the wrong people to be her family member.
Thatâs why in order to avoid Pricillaâs miserable life, I must choose the family âwiselyâ.
What an irrational situation.
âNever the family which Pricilla chose.â
I was trembling my body as I was thinking of the family who fed me sweet potatoes every time.
Traditionally, the family who will stay with the Woman Saint was chosen by the Pope from the candidates selected by the Elders.
It is going through extremely complicated procedures so they were cautious and cautious.
âIâm glad that you seem happy, Yeha.â
âYes, I feel great!â
I affirmed it by nodding and the elders were surprised as they havenât heard my voice in a long time.
âYou must feel very satisfied.â
âthat you are raising your voice.â
âIt was my first time hearing Yehaâs voice.â
It seems that few elders heard my voice for the first time as I didnât speak at all because they were suspicious of my age since I spoke too well.
Leaving the surprised elders behind, I looked back at Pope, his holiness. When I made eye contact, his holiness graciously smiled at me.
âThen, shall we begin?â
With his holiness beginning to speak, I nodded my head and the candidates chosen by the elders came in one by one.
I didnât know their face but I could recognize them by their characteristics.
âThey arenât the right person.â
At last, the person who I was waiting to enter the giant temple.
âYeha!â
I didnât hear the elder calling me while being surprised at the back. I didnât care if anybody said anything or looked at me.
I decided since I saw it for the first time.
âDad!â
I ran quickly and hugged Melkiade.
It was the moment when Melkiade wanted to say something while frowning his face as he recognized me.
I spoke first before him.
âI will adopt you as my father!â
I canât choose my family randomly!
âYou! Become my father!â
Putting everything to become a maniac!
Iâm certain. This will work! Iâm putting all my wealth into this investment!
