《The Reincarnated Heroine Runs from the Plot》Chapter 3 - Capture characters, everywhere!
Advertisement
I somehow didn’t sleep quite well.
In front of the mirror, I tie the ribbon at my collar. The red ribbon matches the thin string used on my hair. I wear a brown blazer and socks that go above my knee. In spite of everything, at least the uniform is cute.
Recently, I can’t help but constantly think of the game. The second prince, a commoner, the Prime Minister’s son, the Knight Commander’s son, Marquis Cahillane’s two sons, Earl Edlestone’s first son and lastly, the secret character, the School Principal’s son. All capture characters. Avoiding such high class people it’s not easy.
I know a lot about these people, to the point I feel like I’m invading on their privacy, it’s a weird feeling.
“Mhmm!” I shake my head trying to forget such thoughts. Being this self-conscious will do me no good!
But I know, in me there’s not only nervousness, there is excitement too. I wonder if that’s a bad thing.
I’m now sitting in classroom waiting for the teacher. Number of occurrences till now: zero. Reporting situation, my class has two capture characters: Matthew Cullen, a commoner like me who occupies the seat at my left, and Alexis Cahillane, a Marquis’ second son who may look cute but has a bad personality. The villainess is also here and it feels like she has been staring bullets at me since a while ago, but that’s just my imagination. Yep.
After some time, a girl passing by loses balance and goes against my table. That small impact sends my eraser falling to the ground. This is… an event! I can’t have a good sense of time from the game, so I wasn’t sure when it would start. The girl looks at me and gives a small apology, while Matthew stretches his arm to pick up the eraser. He shows me his palm, my eraser in his hand, his face expressionless.

“Here you go.”
“T-Thank you…”
Matthew is pretty interesting, being both stoic and sarcastic, a little cold even, but, even though he tries not to show it much, he has a kind heart and is good at looking out for other people. His brownish red hair and red eyes give a strong impression, despite his personality.
He sits straight and doesn’t look in my direction again. This aloof personality of his will end up gathering many fans, even among nobles.
“Class is starting!”
I wish magic class would come sooner.
During lunch break was when the heroine first meet the second prince. The heroine decided to buy some bread on the bar and eat on the garden to enjoy the view. She was leisurely sitting on a bench and eating her lunch when suddenly the prince comes running, still keeping an elegant and dignified appearance somehow, and asks the heroine not to tell anyone she say him, before proceeding to climb a tree. Afterwards a group of girls comes looking for him, to which the heroine, feeling no other option, says she didn’t see him. Then the prince is grateful and leaves.
To avoid that meeting, I decided to pick my lunch and go eat to the rose maze. Today the cafeteria is a no-go, since there’s an event with the villainess. I decided on the rose maze because even if the prince comes by, it’s a place where there is plenty of hiding places; I won’t even see him before he decides to hide.
It’s foolproof! Hehehe, I laugh in my mind while delicately putting my hand in front of mouth. Ah, no, that’s what villainesses do.
I sit down on the ground, somewhere between the bushes. It’s calm and quiet here, I like it.
Even though it’s a maze, the bushes only reach a little above my waist. If I sit I’m more or less hidden, but if I want I can easily be seen.
By the way, the food here is super expensive. The school gave me some sort of allowance and at first I thought it was too much but now… I will spend my money wisely.
Mmm~ it’s yummy though.
“What is this rose doing here alone?”
“!”
Michael Edlestone, the playboy capture character has just found my hiding place.
Abort! Abort!
