Born to Be Rebellious [Quick Transmigration]-Chapter 160: The Fairy Tale World
Everything fell into chaos.
A sense of loss and losing one’s anchor tugged at him.
What was this place?
Ge Xiu felt that his mind was overwhelmed by chaotic fragmented thoughts, it felt as if everything had become different and strange, making him feel dizzy and muddleheaded.
He remembered…
remembered what?
Ge Xiu tried to recall.
He remembered that he came to a new world, a dirty room, a rotting corpse, a black cold gun in the hands of the corpse.
Then what?
What happened next was hazy and distant, those broken memories seemed to be covered with a layer of shadow, when he tried to concentrate and see clearly what he saw was as if covered with thick fog.
Suddenly, without warning—
a monstrous flame rose up abruptly, burning everything in an instant.
Ge Xiu gasped and opened his eyes suddenly.
He was panting heavily.
The scorching temperature and the burning scarlet flames seemed to have become etched on his retinas.
After a brief while, Ge Xiu blinked slowly, and his eyes focused again.
When he saw the environment he was in, he couldn’t help being slightly taken aback.
In front of him was a huge room, with gorgeous draperies hanging down layer by layer, extremely dazzling and noble under the illumination of the surrounding lights. Under his body was a soft velvet bed, with gorgeous patterns woven with a thin golden thread on all of the covers and pillows, forming a family totem.
Not far away was a semi-open balcony, from which one could see the clear and pure blue sky and the meticulously arranged garden below.
Was this… a new world?
Ge Xiu frowned.
Although he couldn’t remember exactly what happened to him after he became infected.
But there was one thing he knew for sure.
That was, after the end of the last world, he did not return to reality, but was directly thrown into this world.
Moreover, the mechanical prompt sound did not sound.
This was already the third time.
Ge Xiu narrowed his eyes slightly.
In the previous world, without no prior informations, he changed into a lycanthrope on the street without warning— the kind with a weakest form.
And in that world, a person who deliberately hid his identity and turned into beast shape without a collar was a felon who was wanted all over the place. Once caught, what awaited him was a lifelong imprisonment in a special prison.
Of course, he could also choose to kill himself and leave early.
In the last world, also without information, Ge Xiu found out that he had been infected before his arrival, and there were two choices before him, to end his life early and directly enter the next world or maintain the status quo and become an mindless walking corpse.
That black cold gun, and only one orange bullet remaining, perfectly created a tempting proposal.
The originally vague speculation in my heart gradually became clear.
In those two previous worlds, manipulators outside were trying to induce him to commit suicide.
……why?
Ge Xiu frowned and quickly organized and thought over all possibilities in his mind, trying to solve this weird puzzle.
At this moment, the door of the room was suddenly pushed open.
Several gorgeously dressed maids came in and the leading maid curtsied before him graciously:
“Princess, it’s time.”
…Huh? What?
Ge Xiu was dumbfounded for a moment.
Princess?
What? Were they calling him?
He suddenly realized something, took a long breath, and suddenly looked down at himself—
The wide neckline revealed a beautifully shaped white collarbone embellished with heavy heart-shaped gemstones, the hair resembling golden silk flowed down his onto shoulders and chest like a waterfall, and a gorgeous corset outlined the slender waist curve. On the top there was a huge dress as soft as clouds, and the mist-like spun gauze covered the dress, creating a fantastic and ethereal atmosphere.
It would be a beautiful dress.
If it wasn’t on his own body.
Ge Xiu’s pupils shrank and he took a deep breath.
Wait, wait!
Would his gender also change in another world? !
He suddenly reached out and touched his chest—it was flat.
The other hand reached between the legs——
still there.
New problems emerged.
Then… Could it be that in this world, princesses were actually men?
Just when Ge Xiu was doubting the world, the maids at the side stepped forward and stretched out their hands to help him up from the bed:
“Princess, don’t stay in bed anymore lest the wedding begins before we get there.”
The other maids also surrounded him, the two gently put on the shawl for him and the other picked up a crown studded with diamonds from the velvet tray on the back, putting it on the top of his head.
Ge Xiu was dumbfounded, his whole body was rigidly being manipulated by them like a puppet, and it took him a long time to realize what the other had said.
……wedding?
The amount of information in this sentence was too huge, causing Ge Xiu to feel his scalp tingling:
“Who…whose wedding?”
One maid was tidying up the folds of his dress and when she heard his question, she couldn’t help giggling: “Princess, you are joking again, this is of course your wedding.”
Five thunders struck down.
Ge Xiu suddenly raised his hand to grab the maid’s arm, and said dryly, “But I’m a ma…”
Before he could finish his sentence, the door was suddenly pushed open, and a short, fat middle-aged man wearing a crown rushed in. He was wearing a hunting suit, with a long velvet cloak trailing behind him, and beside him was a middle-aged beautiful woman in a long dress. She was wiping the tears from the corners of her eyes with a handkerchief, wailing with deep emotions: “My daughter!!!”
Ge Xiu: “…”
Who is your daughter!
The maids who had been preparing Ge Xiu just now dispersed and curtseyed to the person who came: “Your Majesty.”
It seemed that these two were the original body’s parents.
Ge Xiu narrowed his eyes slightly and looked at the other party.
“Stand back.” The king looked at the maids at the side and commanded majestically.
The maids were sent out of the room.
Soon, there were only the three of them standing opposite each other.
The king looked at Ge Xiu who was standing aside, with suppressed sadness on his fat face: “Oh, my daughter, when you were born, we always thought that your innate beauty was a precious gift, but we didn’t expect it to be a curse that caused a disaster—the prophecy when you were born was still fulfilled, we are the ones who wronged you…”
Ge Xiu: “…”
He took a deep breath and forcibly suppressing the absurdity welling up in his heart, he turned his head to look at the king standing in front of him, met his eyes, and said word by word:
“I am a man.”
The queen let out a low sob, raised her arms to hug Ge Xiu’s shoulders, and began to cry loudly, sobbing out,
“Of course I know that you don’t want to leave our side, but this is something that can’t be helped…”
“Your reputation has spread throughout the continent. As you grew up, more and more people coveted your beauty. We have already rejected many people who tried to propose marriage.” The king shook his head and sighed: “This time , the army of Farland Kingdom has arrived at the border, and, according to the news we have learned, the armies of other countries are coming soon, so we have no choice but to agree to the marriage contract proposed by the King of Farland. We were forced to marry you off before everything becomes irreparable.”
His face showed deep shame: “Father didn’t protect you well.”
Ge Xiu: “…”
What the hell.
He didn’t want to waste any more words, and bent down to lift his skirt.
“What are you doing?” The queen turned pale with fright, and hurriedly caught his hand: “This is what a lady should do. You must not do this after you get married!”
The king was also shocked, and hurried forward a few steps: “What’s the matter? Are you feeling unwell? Shall we call a doctor?”
——Their reaction didn’t look fake.
Ge Xiu slowly put down his hands, narrowed his eyes thoughtfully, and looked at the two people in front of him.
Were they really ignorant of his true gender?
After all, the purpose of the marriage contract was to quell the war, and if they married off a fake princess, it would not be of any benefit to their country.
Ge Xiu said calmly: “It’s nothing, it’s just a little hot.”
The queen raised her hand and sighed remorsefully touching his face:
“The banquet will start in half an hour, just let us know if you need anything, don’t hide it.”
“Okay.” Ge Xiu nodded obediently, and said,
“You don’t need to let the maid come in during this time, let me be alone.”
Seeing the King and Queen disappearing at the door, the room once again was as empty as when Ge Xiu first woke up.
Their footsteps gradually moved away.
After he could no longer hear any sound, Ge Xiu quickly untied the corset on his body, and then took a heavy breath.
The feeling of being compressed on his chest to the point of suffocation before finally disappeared.
He looked over the environment around him, then raised his hand and pulled down the curtain beside him, skilfully tore it into small pieces, walked quickly to the dressing table, and put the jewelry inside into this simply made bag.
Immediately afterwards, Ge Xiu walked quickly to the closet, opened its door, and glanced inside hastily.
It was all those heavy, gaudy dresses that didn’t have any utility, with basically no simpler alternatives.
He sighed, bent down, and started to tear off the obstructive skirt. The ear-piercing sound of ripping fabric rang in his ears. In just a few minutes, the beautiful flowy dress that was almost reaching the floor became a bunch of rags.
Ge Xiu tore off all the excess fabric and then tied a simple knot around the petticoat on his thighs to make simple trousers.
He took off the heavy necklace around his neck, stuffed it into the bulging bag, then turned around and walked towards the balcony.
——If he doesn’t run now, does he still want to wait until the banquet?
