The maid was obviously Lizeth's personal maid, and when she spoke, her voice was trembling.
Even her body was shivering like a little frightened animal.
It seemed that Isabella was such a scary figure for the maids.
Mariella moved her gaze away and raised an eyebrow at the maid's words instead.
Lizeth seeks an audience with the queen? She came to find Isabella? Is there such a scene in the original plotline?
Before Mariella could ask Monica, Monica immediately assisted Mariella and searched for the particular scene, but she immediately shook her head.
[R-riel, there's no scene like this in the original plotline. The plot seemed to deviate bit by bit.]
And that's a good thing!
Mariella hummed coldly and gestured to the maid to raise her head.
"Okay. Let her in."
Mariella was curious about Lizeth's motive to come and find her.
In the original plotline, while Isabella was still alive, Lizeth was afraid of Isabella.
Isabella often bullied her, which created a shadow in the princess' heart, so much so that she got into misunderstandings with Erick later on because of the dead Isabella.
Such a timid and weak princess in the first volume suddenly came to find Isabella on her initiative…
[Did someone possess Lizeth or something? Maybe Lizeth is reborn?]
Mariella's imagination was rich, but Monica hurriedly stopped her host's wandering thoughts.
[N-no, everything is normal. If there is something abnormal with the world before Riel enters the world, the lead system would have told you about it.]
[What if the world is abnormal after I enter?]
[Then, I-I will also sense it and will tell you, Riel!]
After all, if there's a mysterious variable other than the hosts and the systems mixed with the mission worlds, things might go astray.
The systems were also prepared to face such an anomaly, but usually, a low-ranked world like this one wouldn't have many unpredictable variables.
[M-maybe it's a butterfly effect from when R-Riel replaced Isabella…]
And that's exactly why the systems picked hosts to possess these characters. It's to make butterfly effects and break the original plotline smoothly!
Mariella nodded at Monica's explanations, and right after their conversation ended, Princess Lizeth, in her modest pale pink gown, already rushed into the throne room.
The tiny and skinny princess' golden hair was tied into a side braid, a similar hairstyle with Rapunzel when she braided her hair.
Princess Lizeth had a similar face with her dancer mother, beautiful and somewhat seductive.
But because of Lizeth's timid nature, she looked pure and innocent instead.
The 'little white rabbit' stood a few meters away from the huge throne with her head hanging down, only exposing a small part of her face.
The moment Lizeth came in, the thirteen-year-old girl couldn't stop trembling, yet she insisted on standing in front of Isabella.
Mariella tugged the corner of her lips, acting like a school bully, before she opened her mouth and spoke.
"My, my, isn't this my dear big sister, Princess Lizeth? It's the first time big sis comes to find me...what do you want?"
Mariella's tone of voice was exactly like how Isabella used to speak to Lizeth; full of mockery and sarcasm.
Lizeth's lowly bloodline really irked Isabella, the one with the purest bloodline between the king and the neighbouring kingdom's adored princess.
Hearing the usual disdain in Mariella's voice, Lizeth flinched, but she quickly kneeled on the floor and started to sob.
"L-little sister– I mean, your majesty. T-this princess...this princess wishes to ask you for a favour…"
Lizeth had never kneeled in front of Isabella, no matter how hard Isabella bullied her.
So now, when the princess suddenly plopped to the ground like that, the two maids behind the princess squealed in terror.
"Princess!"
"Your highness!"
For a princess to kneel like that...it is an absolute disgrace!
But Mariella didn't even bat an eyelid and crossed her tiny legs on the throne while twirling her golden hair.
"What favour? Since my big sister already goes as far as kneeling, how can this little sister not listen to you, big sis?"
A thirteen-year-old teenager kneeled in front of a five-year-old child...that was quite a scene, and Mariella quite enjoyed it.
Just say it was her revenge on Lizeth, the protagonist of this world.
Lizeth was actually innocent, but since she's the protagonist who would suck the world's energy and harm tons of people…
Mariella wouldn't have even a single ounce of mercy for this kind of leech.
Even if Lizeth didn't subconsciously suck the world's energy, she would still be a great calamity.
If Mariella could get rid of the girl's protagonist halo by destroying the plotline and freeing the world from the novel's influence, even Lizeth would also get to live a safe life.
So...don't blame her for being merciless!
A crafty light flashed through Mariella's eyes, but Lizeth didn't notice it.
The teenager widened her eyes at Mariella's words and hurriedly wiped her tears while lifting her head.
Her eyes were full of unexplainable joy.
"T-this, your majesty. About Eric– I mean, Young Master Haldar...t-this princess begs your majesty to lighten his punishment!"
Lizeth acted as if she just gained a huge amount of courage and started to plead for Erick.
"Y-young master Haldar was just muddle-headed at the banquet back then. H-he didn't mean to harm your majesty. S-so…"
"So you want me to release him from the prison?" Mariella laughed softly, yet her laughter sounded so evil and provocative.
Hohoho. It turns out this leech comes here to plead for her lover's freedom! How touching! What a good romance novel!
Lizeth immediately answered Mariella's obvious question with a slight joy in her voice.
"Y-yes! Please release him!"
Unfortunately, Mariella's next words hit her hard.
"But why should I?"
