It's been a year now since I was reincarnated and found out that I am a daughter of a Duke and this world is different from Japan or Earth where I came from. It feels like I've been reborn into a different world and timeline, back to the medieval period with a lack of advanced technology and different clothing.

I also learned that I was named Celine la Valkhyne and both my parents dotes me... although my older brother hated me for an unknown reason.

When I first learnt that I am a child of an aristocrat, I panicked. In my past life, I loved to watch dramas about historical fiction in which those nobles, once they feels the person is an eyesore they will end their life or throw them in a dungeon to make their life miserable or sell them into a prostitution. There are many more terrifying thoughts running through my head about my own blood father so meeting my father terrifies me..... but who would have thought that this feeling are all for naught. My father is not only a gentle father who loves his family; he is also kind, caring, and sweet father who doted and spoiled me like a real precious princess. My father is really the best father I've known!

When father saw my brother bullied me, he (father) reprimanded and punished him (brother) for hurting his (father) little princess. I felt bad for my brother, but he deserved it. Who told him to pinch me?! Didn't anyone tell him that a baby's skin is sensitive? Tsk. I got my revenge by borrowing a knife from father, internally feeling proud of my well done job.

Oh! I almost forgot to tell you. I learned from the maids' gossips that my mother is actually pregnant again when I was only five or six months old.

Mom you should learn about family planning, you know. It is bad for your body to get pregnant again while I'm still an infant, you know. But I can't blame my mother, my father is actually an oh-so-dazzling ikemen[1].

Mother is a beautiful lady in her mid-20s while the father is a handsome gentleman in his early 30s, and whenever I look at my father, I need to cover my eyes so I won't be blinded by the glittering lights surrounding him. And seeing them showing love for each other makes one puke blood. They actually dared to flirt right in front of me! Don't you know that you're ruining your daughter's innocent eyes! Argh! I dislike of your PDA (Public Display Affection).

I also learned on why and how my oh-so loving brother got his mother complex.

It started when my parents first year of marriage. At that time, there was an ongoing war between two neighboring countries. To make sure our kingdom will not be affected by the said war, the King issued a royal order to my father, who was still a knight general of a certain squad at that time, along with other generals to defend our border in the South.

When my father left, my mother found out that she was pregnant with their first child.

The war lasted for almost four years and mother was the only one who took care of my older brother. Showered with both love and attention, my oh-so loving Chris niisama[2] developed a mother complex (hoping he won't turn into yandere[3]) and now that I'm here, he started to resent me for getting the attention of both of our parents....

But something was bothering me since I learned about my name. I felt like I heard it somewhere before and it really is important.

Since I can't recall, I'll sleep for the meantime as baby likes me, need more sleep to grow. Yawn. Oyasuminasai minna[4]

----------------------------------------------------------------------

I am now started to be curious about this world.

I knew that this world was different to Earth and lack of advanced technology, like they used candles as lights, and I also heard that there are no cars instead a horse carriage. The clothing is also like those Victorian era dresses where you can only watch from western historical movies which also piqued my interest.

Since I started to like anime and turned into an otaku; I love Lolita dresses and wish I can also wear these but it was not possible. I will only embarrass myself since I have the reputation I need to take care of. If only I was younger when I discovered anime, there is a possibility I'll do cosplay, but alas, all was an unreachable dream.... until I was reborn here. I can now wear those Lolita dresses without embarrassing oneself as it was the norm in this era.

And secondly, I found out that the kingdom's name I was in was a nonexistent in my previous world history. I can still a little bit remember the world history even though. Ahem. I am only. Ahem. Above average.... a little, really little above average when it comes to history subject. You can't blame me, who is here like to study history, especially if your teacher always ended up being an old teacher who was boring and too slow to speak that you fell asleep in her class whenever she/he started talking. If you do exist, I really worship you!

Anyways, in short, I don't know where I reincarnated at!

That was I started planning on how I can sneak outside my room without being found by both of maids and my parents. I don't want them to freak out and learning I am matured than my age. It's kinda creepy at the same time amazing if you meet a baby who can understand you and such.

I already can stand without help from someone but because babies' heads are heavy, I can't balance my body for a long time and walking for a long time is an impossible task so crawling is the best way to move around. Sigh.

Whenever my maids left me alone in my room every afternoon nap, I will sneakily tour around the mansion to look for the library.... which I can easily escape them without them knowing and be back before the time they'll come back to feed me.

But

Who would have thought *huff[5]* that this mansion *huff* was too big *huff* for my little body *huff* to tour

Walking (crawling) around this big mansion (or maybe a castle) is like a maze. Finding the library is a difficult task for me.

It's been a week but for no avail, I can't still find the library. Sigh.

Maybe I should ask my oh-so-loving brother I have and use my cutest charm on him, right? Smirk. Who can resist my cuteness? Any? None because cuteness is justice.
