Darkness. It is pitch black. I can't see but I my vision is blurry. I am confused on how that is possible.
"Wake up!" a voice echoed, "Miss, wake up!"
A bright light appeared in front of me. What is happening? I asked no one but myself. suddenly, I felt a chill run down from my spine to my body; my bodily sensation returned; I smell a steaks being cooked, birds chirping, and someone pinching my cheeks.
"Ugh, w-where am I," I asked, I saw a little girl on top of me.
"Miss Ryunova, I mean, Miss Ryu, did you forgot where you are?" the little girl asked.
She is a young girl who seems to be nine to ten years old, brunette wavy hair and brown eyes, with pair skin tone. Also, this place? Where am I? I asked myself. A room made from wooden materials. I look at my right to only see a lamp that was put off just now by a beautiful damsel.
"Wow, beautiful," I said in a whim. I didn't even realize I said it until she spoke.
"Oh why, thank you, Miss Ryunova. But you're more beautiful than me," she replied to me with a sweat smile. I just imagined a flowers behind her, floating.
Wait? Ryunova?
The realization hits late.
Thud~!
"Uh!"
Memories. These are not my memories! My mind, thirteen years of memories returned. These memories are from the owner of this body? R-Ryunova... Ryunova is the name of this body's owner.

What the heck. Did I really reincarnate into this body? Lilith, or now Ryunova asked herself, deep in thought, the little girl grab Ryunova's shoulder and begins to shake Ryunova.
"Miss~! Wake up, its morning."
"O-okay. First, do you want to get off on top of me... or something?"
"Oh right!"
Ryunova, she grew in an orphanage in the kingdom of Selfrest, a kingdom boasting in economy and military power. When she turned ten, she left the orphanage to work outside in a foreign land, in the allied nation of Arkan Kingdom in the west. Selfrest Kingdom is located in the middle of the continent, in great risk for getting invaded any time by other nations surrounding it.
Although, they boast military might to hold on equal footing against the Western Empire. The Selfrest is also the economic hub, due to being in the middle of the continent. Going back in the topic. Ryunova worked as a maid in some baron's territory in the foreign nation of Arkan, a merchant's assistance, and she was trained in swordsmanship at the age of eleven by the merchant's personal bodyguard.
Now, she decided to returned to the Selfrest Kingdom after bidding her farewell to her merchant friends. Ryunova decided to stay on an inn, just in the outskirt of the kingdom, a small town manage by Baron Valac.
"I hope you enjoy the meal, Miss Ryunova."
"Thank you, Miss Layla. In anyway, please call me Ryu in short."
"Is it really okay."
The two had a joyful conversation and Ryunova or now Ryu, finished her meal. Ayla her daughter, Aila, treated Ryu with respect she deserve as a swordsman lady, and as a customer.
Ryunova, she is a young beautiful girl with fair skin tone, long silvery white hair, and a pair of golden eyes; she wears a beautiful long sleeves, white dress with gold accents in the sleeves cuffs, collar, and a gold color belt around her waist; voluptuous body, and standing at 145 centimeter.

What should I do now. Before waking up as Ryunova, she was having the plan to return to the capital city and register as an adventurer. But if memories serves me right, the adventurer's registration requirement is: the person who wants to register must be at least fifteen years old, but Ryu is only thirteen years old. Plus, I have no experience fighting. I may be a famous actress who performs and act like she knows how to fight with guns and sword, that doesn't mean I really can in real life.
I released a sigh in annoyance. This world has magics too, though they are not common; not all people can use magic because some can't handle mana in their body, resulting in them cannot using magic.
Ryunova seems to have magics. She has water and wind magical attributes, but she doesn't have time to train magic since her favorite is holding sword. Ugh~ I guess I should just sign in and if I show them my capability, they may give me an exceptional treatment and allow me to register.
"So, Miss Ryu, do you have a boyfriend?"
A boyfriend...
"Well, no, I don't. Plus, you must, Importantly not trust a man so easily. Remember this, don't judge a book by its cover."
She looks confused, tilting her head in confusion. We're going on a walk together in the town. This town seems lively, and their lord has good reputation. i guess they are well taken care by their lord.
"What I mean is, having a good appearance doesn't make them a good person, they may be a bad guy or a superly good guy," I simplified my answer.
"Oh! I get it! Got it!" she cheerfully said to me, she clench her fist in front of her face, then grab my hands. "Let's go, to everywhere~!" Cheerful, kind, and innocent; I don't want that to disappear from this girl.
"Anyway, Aila, I will be leaving tomorrow to head to the capital. Once in there, I will register as an adventurer and also visit the orphanage I once grew in."
She stopped. She looked at me with a pitiful sad eyes, not fit for this small beauty.
"Ah... I see. I trust that you will protect yourself on your way, Miss Ryu," she said with low tone, almost a whisper. "But you would come back, right?" she asked me, she forcible smile at me.
"Yes, I would certainly come back. Plus, I wouldn't want to miss this little beauty in front of me, hm hm~"
"Hmp! 'little beauty."? Flattery won't work on the genius me you know," she said, but her blush gave it all.
. . . . .
It's the time when I leave now. I am currently in front of the town's gate, saying my goodbye to Aila and Miss Mayla.
"Come back, okay."
"Yes, I will, little beauty." I kneel down on her level, and pat her. "Plus, a promise that is broken is not a promise at all, just a words. I promise in my name, Ryunova El-Tan, that I will come back here for you."
She was shocked. But why?
"El-Tan?" Aila tilted her head.
"Y-yes, why?"
"Nothing... It's just that it's the last name of the main character in my favorite book."
A book eh, maybe the author is my relatives or something.
"Hahaha, I maybe the author. In anyway, I will take my leave now."
After bidding my farewell, I left, riding my newly bought rare white horse. Actually, the horse was gifted to me by my merchant dear `o friend, Jeremiah when I turned twelve. Anyway, I think I should wear a cloak. My beauty transcend all, I mean it. These clothes I am wearing, plus my voluptuous body, it will result in some things like the cost of my freaking death. In this new life, I will live as I desire. I will not let anyone order me around like I am some kind of a puppet. I decided to wear cloak for my safety. Though, I am still contemplating about my past and about how this new world is cool.
