With the help of the computer, she had gained some basic idea of the land she was in.
It was indeed a fantasy setting with magic being the part of every living being. The magic was part of their spiritual aura and elemental powers from nature.
The power was divided into six fire, water, wind, earth, space and time but there was another rare like lightning, healing and dark powers.
The one with dark powers are called demons and often hunted while the one with light powers are known as messengers of god. But they were so rare and none had been found from the last two decades only leaving a few who were worshiped.
The powers could be increased with more strength that could come from killing the wild beasts with spiritual power and absorbing them or with mana stones that are found in mines with a lot of spiritual power.
Eating spiritual fruit and herbs was also a way but these kinds of things were too costly since they were sought out.
Though her family was rich and influential, they never spent a single herb or fruit on her, not to imagine killing wild beasts for her and giving her spiritual gems.
Based on the data, she had the magic of space, that is she could decrease the space in her mind and cover any kind of distance in a few seconds and create new space around her to hide! But her level of magic was weak since she had been given birth prematurely and no one ever took care of her after that.
She was a weak girl who was often bullied! Ruth.. no! Althea, she had to keep calling her that so that she did not get confused later.
Thanks to her experience of masking herself into many forms, it would not be that difficult for her to play a role until she finds a way to get out of this game.
She was sure that the staff would soon find her playing it in the store room and wake her up even if she could not go out by herself from this damned game.
For now, she had nowhere to go except the home of the character since she was wanted for killing that fool.
She walked away hiding in the dark with big strides. Luckily she had gotten the memory of the character when she checked the details for the last time so it was not that difficult for her.
To her relief even when the house was far away, with some effort she was able to use the space magic and reached there with a few steps.
But only this was enough for her to get tired that she was gasping for air as if she was underwater for long.
She was weaker than she had thought. She really had zero talents that was why she was frowned upon by the whole family and even her father did not care about her.
When she looked at the story of the game, Althea did not have much role. In fact, she was about to die in the start of the game to give it progression.
The man would have killed her tonight and then her father would have hired the great sword master to avenge her death. Not because he loved her or cared for her but she was still the daughter of the family of the duke, it was his ego.
It would have started the war with the emperor and the ml and fl would have come together to stop the war.
Too bad.. Since she did not die! The story could not progress that way.
But that was in the past! Even if she had received the weak character with not much role in the story, Althea was going to be the star now that Ruth had chosen her.
Though the body was weak due to lack of nourishment, she felt that her internal structure was good. If she paid a bit more effort on her food and trained, she could increase her skills. The thought brought the spark again in her eyes when she realized she was trying to improve her character.
She shook her head. What was she even thinking? She was going to leave this character soon.
She laid on the bed and sighed. Raising her head in the air, she stared hard at it. The skin.. It looked so realistic. She had never played such a perfect game that she was even able to feel the emotions of the character.
She felt like the girl, Althea was frustrated and hurt and she wanted revenge from her family and from those who had treated her like a joke, a toy in their hands.
But.. it was not her fight. She had a mission tomorrow morning, she had to kill that politician who was taking bribes and was going to destroy the orphanage she helped.
She could go back to reality any moment. There was no reason for her to attach herself from the body of a character.
She closed her eyes with that thought and strong will power.
But….
"Knock knock!"
"I told you there is no need to knock. There is no one in the room. The princess had left the palace to meet her lover. She is shaming the lord as her fiance."
Althea opened her eyes with a snap as if she was never sleeping but acting like one. Her senses were sharp without a daze and her ears were perked up.
"No! My lady never left the room. I was here all the time, she is just resting. Let me knock the door again." said a girl with a feeble voice when a smirk formed on the face of Althea.
"Ha! So, you will not believe till the end. Then let me show you…"
The knob of the door moved as if the person already had prepared the key to prove his point.
"Look.. she is…. Here?"
