The Princess In The Dumpster - Chapter 1
Chapter 1
“I’m hungry,····”
The messy child shook her head and said in a melancholy way, as if a mouse had eaten her because her hair wasn’t trimmed
It’s been 3 days since the has child filled her stomach with only water. She was used to hunger, It’s not possible to tell whether it’s meat or radish in front of you
Started
The child sank into a seat as if she had lost all strengh in her legs
‘Can I eat this?’
A small hand, like a fern, grazed the grass on the floor, and then shook his head and lowered the grass.
Behind the child there was a ugly castle in the background
It was a castle used as a warehouse so it was full of useless items, but few people
The owner of the abondonned castle was as if dying
She was a little girl
Of course no one knows that the child is here , so no one want to admit it
It was natural for a girl who had been sitting on her feet (who was alone ?) for at least seven years.
The child lay barely inside the wall, among unmanaged, luxirious weeds.
A scruffy, sloppy head, messed with dirt and leaves. Besides, the clothes wore on top were pieces of cloth with holes everywhere.
To make matters worse, it was clear that the clothes the child wore were adult clothes.
However, it was no different from a sack because a skinny little girl was wearing it as it wouldn’t come near an adult’s thight
Even the lower part of the underside of the clothes was dragged (to the ground) by more than half and was dirty with the remains of dirt and grass.
The feet were bare and the bottom did not exist.
« When is Zion coming ? »
The child pout one lips and thinks, then rolls over the bush
‘I don’t want to wait, ······’
I knew he was coming back, but I didn’t want to wait.
« I’ll be right back »
The news is too late, as she struck/banged her chest with a small hand saying she would bite some fruit
Of course, I don’t expect anything that’s great , but if you bring me even tree fruit then I don’t think I will have any wish
Crumble up, she heard a sudden voice , and her sensitive ears were moving
« Oh, it’s heavy. Can I just put this in there? »
« Maybe that’ll work »
The child who was lying on the floor weakly quickly woke up at the voice coming from the entrance of the castle gate
The child who was adept at running, jumped on a large pillar of trees beside the castle
she jumped and hung on. The hanging firgure looked like a cicada stuck to an old tree.
The child, who had his lips closed, began to climb the tree with familiarity.
The child’s nails, which crawled up the tree with a nervous look, were full of dirt, and her eyes were blinded by her full-grown bangs, making it questionable whether she could see properly.
The child hid herself in a leafy place, nervous by the approaching voice.
Thick branches hide a small and skinny body
And at the same time, from the noisy entrance of the castle gate, three women with large, colorful tables were seen wandering into the castle.
‘Weird people, ···!!!’
People dressed in black and white often broke into a child’s castle and piled things up.
The child’s face was distorted.
“But this place looks like a castle, why is it a warehouse?”
“It’s too far into the nature and was neglected”
The general manager who was in need (or ‘who was in trouble’) to put the big luggage, said he got permission from his majesty
« Ah, it’s not used anyway, so it’s good to use it like this »
The three maids were busy chatting without even knowing that there were children.
While listening to the stories of the maids, the child clenched her fist.
“It’s the castle I use…”
The girl muttered in a very small voice.
Soon the girl with her head down stared silently down.
The girl’s eyes glistened as if they had lit up through her covered bangs.
The child’s eyes were different from those of ordinary people.
The light was too intense for a human eye to reflect and shine, and it was even more dazzling in the daytime than the eyes of an animal in the dark.
It was like jewel-like eyes glistening in the sunlight.
When the child lowered her head, her eyes disappeared again with her shaggy front hair.
“Well, it’s none of our business to worry about. But do you know there’s a strange rumor here ?»
« Rumors ?»
“Yes. Rumors of ghosts coming out ! Sometimes they hear the sound of a child laughing or a beast/animal being long.” (not sure what being long means)
Her breathless, terrified voice hardened her body to the whole time.
A slender branch was broken so tightly that the back of my hand turned white.
“Ah….”
The girl stared blankly down at the branch she broke.
« Oh, don’t say that ! I got goosebumps ! »
« you won’t be coming here tonight anyway »
« the ghost… there isn’t anything like that, right ? »
The 3 maids squealed and quickkly escaped from the castle
It wasn’t untill a long time passed that after the 3 of them have disappeared , the girl was flinching, noticing, and carefully descending
« kyung ? »
The girl lowered her head with a face brightened by the sensation of (smth) tapping her foot
« Zion ! »
The child who expressed her welcome with a very small voice, held a small lizard like in her arms
As she hugged it tightly, the little black reptile burried in a small, twisted body shook it’s long tail and hit her in the wrist
« it hurts »
« kyuuuu ! kyu »
The lizard got out of the girl’s arms, climbed up her body, and soon jumped to the floor.
“Where’s the food?”
The girl asked with a bright face. The reptile’s eyes glistened.
The black reptile, with a proud look on its nose, poked its sharp claws into the floor and crawled under the tree.
Then apply force to your hind legs and stand upright.
Then he dabbed his tail on the floor and pointed his sharp claws at the bottom of the tree.
“What did you get?”
The child With a curious look on her face, she kneeled under the tree and lay flat.
Then she put her nose where the lizard pointed.
Expectations disappeared from the girl’s face when she saw what the lizard had pointed to, and there was an instant disappointment.
« Do I eat this? »
The girl smiled awkwardly between her hair covering more than half her face.
What the lizard pointed to was a mouse. It’s a rat that’s sticking out its guts and hasn’t died yet.
The little child sighed deeply.
“It’s too small for two.”
The child stretched out on the tree as if tired.
“You have/eat this.”
The child pushed the mouse in front of the lizard.
The child dragged and hugged her knee with a shabby frame.
The unmanaged and used as a warehouse was the girl’s house. Although this was a hiding place without permission.
“Zion, I hear you’re gonna become an adult, you will get very big…”
The girl looked up at the sky.
“Then, why don’t you put me on your back and take me far away?”
She wanted to go somewhere else, not a castle, not a well surrounded by a large stone wall
growl rumbling
The child rose from her seat at the sound of a timely boisterous noise.
There was a small pond in the backyard of the castle. It is not managed like a castle, so it is covered with leaves and moss, but when it rains, the water fills up and never dries up.
It was the only place where the girl could eat as much as she wanted.
If you can paint (think of) the pond water as a meal
“Hey, did you hear that? Those princes over there are fencing (fighting with swords)»
Between the collapsed walls, I heard the soldiers talking.
At the same time as the voice was heard, the child, who hid behind the tree, became very stiff.
« A sword fight?! What are you doing? »
« Your Majesty has decided to present/give a horse, and the 2 princes wanted the same horse, so they must compete fair and square! »
« Oh, my God! It’s not easy to see the two together! Let’s go see it quickly. »
In time, the two men’s movements grew distant.
The child, who was stiffened by the voice outside, soon bowed her head and trudged toward Zion with bare feet.
“Kyuung?”
The black lizard tilted its head.
” Zion….. are you done eating? Let’s go get some water.”
The girl with the belly held dearly attracted blood-stained reptiles to her arms.
The girl who grabbed her stomach carefully, took the blood stained (from eating the mouse ?) reptile in her arms and hide it behind her
