    Now, everyone, can you 828859b29c guess what I’ve brought 142c6a1ca8 with me?f7a4ac9d6d1f95ce

    Yes, that’s right. Blue ink and a pen. They may seem like ordinary ink and pen, but they’re enchanted with a very special spell. Watch this… dip the pen into the blue ink… and then rewrite over the already written text in this book……5ce83ed132a0aa26

    Hehe, that’s right. From now on, I’ll use this ink and pen to fix the story that the prince has so rudely altered. A mere character like the prince saying and doing things I don’t even know about… it’s truly, truly horrifying. As the narrator and storyteller, as someone who must deliver a perfect story to you all, I simply cannot tolerate such unexpected disruptions. Occasionally, some great authors say, “Even as an author, you can’t fully control your characters! Sometimes, as you craft a story, the characters come to life on their own and start speaking and acting independently! Paradoxically, it’s when the characters grab the author by the hair and drag them along that great stories are born!”9487b1d4ce67cc66

    ……But that’s the case for great authors. I’m just a mere storyteller, repeating and delivering a story that’s already been written… so when something like this happens, I’m utterly flustered.f34240382f3049d1

    Unfortunately, the 58463c0d25 prince has a3def71402 gained a 655f0f5e32 life force 92930919a0 that I 425375b9fc simply cannot e5e5b94ebd handle. But don’t 6e1a3c8ffb worry, everyone.

    Hmm, so first… let’s change the narrative style a bit.1eced2f30038e8f4

    Until now, I’ve been telling the story under the assumption that we know everything about the prince’s past, future, and innermost thoughts. But sadly, due to this small anomaly, I can no longer know the prince’s past, future, or thoughts…… So instead, I’ll introduce a wizard. From now on, the story will unfold through this wizard’s eyes.70ca4a15d9f3cb5a

    Haha, don’t worry too 22026414e1 much, everyone. What’s important 49f12316c3 isn’t the cb6152c7ae narrative style e2495ff47c or the 015c8aa848 characters themselves. What’s important 9556cc2e94 is the c0900d65ef fate of 60c42f6fbe the story. The protagonist, the 4c72c03b1a prince, must prick 5536539e5b his finger on 5b5585bdfd a needle on 0225665011 his twenty-seventh birthday, 7acea92b46 fall into a 4e3ace9b1b deep and peaceful bd83078637 sleep for a afc6dfc3d0 hundred years, and da9c09e0f8 then awaken with 5e6c347617 a kiss from 29f9e4a834 a beautiful princess c1cddd7675 to live happily e943bef481 ever after. That’s all that 980607b726 matters. Don’t worry too 53e4242ec8 much.

    Here stands a wizard.ab0bbd25db74469f

    He is a wizard who never forgets a grudge. If he isn’t invited to a birthday party, if he’s excluded, he will surely show up and cast a terrifying curse. Yes, he’s a bit petty. He’s no magnanimous figure. He’s a little timid… but he’s consistent, persistent, and meticulous.027bf2f9f5a1e323

    So now, this wizard is loitering in front of the royal palace, waiting to see the results of the curse he cast twenty-seven years ago. He’s persistent and meticulous, after all. He needs to see it with his own eyes to be satisfied. To ensure no one recognizes him as the wizard from back then, he’s disguised as a beggar, wearing tattered rags. His disguise is meticulous…… I told you, he’s that kind of person.7c517fb524af43c3

    Normally, the guards wouldn’t 5410498dc5 let a beggar loiter 6cf6b75192 in front of the 7ae6055432 palace gates. But today was a f7d4dc958f special day.

    But the expressions on everyone’s faces were not particularly bright. Yes, it was because of the curse. If the prince pricked his finger on a needle and fell into a hundred-year slumber… what would happen to the kingdom? Would the entire kingdom fall asleep with him? For a hundred years? And when the promised hundred years passed and the prince awoke, would the entire kingdom wake up with him? Could that even happen? People… can’t sleep for a hundred years, can they? A hundred-year sleep… isn’t that just another name for death?cabb2c6fe58bc185

    At that moment, 1c3f66325f the sound of 3bab06d1a6 the drawbridge lowering f1d0f7449b echoed from inside db4613e78c the palace walls.

    Someone riding a 16efc9afa6 white horse with c1871a7aaf a golden mane be109561fe was crossing the 6bcb13eff9 drawbridge at an 77e4f5ad13 incredible speed.

    At the d1f5225f3a captain’s frantic 04c44dd558 shout, the e0943d484a guards snapped c4805c1f43 to attention. They began hurriedly closing e8cb275c79 the gates of the ec426097fe outer wall. As the gap 2b9efa8f98 between the gates babe0aa93a narrowed, the prince’s 0933e5657b breathing grew heavier. Just as the gates 594015b7cd were about to close, 9b0365d2f3 leaving only enough space f85014edcd for a grown man c41c6da194 to squeeze through, the 0549f700a5 prince leaned close to b5c68808a1 his horse’s ear and 525e2e12c5 whispered something. The white horse leaped 6087d64695 forward with incredible force, ea41950b6a its golden mane fluttering 0d52440ddb like wings in the 5c5fd9dab5 air. Fearing they might be 680fad09d6 trampled by the horse’s 05a8bb0789 hooves, the guards screamed ff0cdf974c and scrambled away from 0cc947b9c6 the gates.

    Unable to catch up to the prince, the most hot-tempered of the ten knights drew his bow and arrow. Of course, he had no intention of hitting the prince.
