I Encounter the Wizard per Chance!

Chapter 3

Now that I think about it, we didn't even exchange our names.

"My name is..." It took me just seconds before I gasped.

Wait. A. Minute.

Name...?

...

Damn it, I forgot I'm a noble lady right now. If he's just a nobody, that might be fine but with how beautiful he is, he must be someone of high rank or a renowned person! I mean, that's just how it is in otome game and light novel right?

The handsome ones are the important figures while the average-looking ones are the supporting characters, ain't I right?

OK, back to the topic. I'm a lady. But somehow I was really rude (if we're talking about etiquette, that is) to this ikemen in front of me just now. Welp, I even drooled upon seeing him too...! Not to mention that lullaby part...!!!

....

Ehem. I coughed.

"Forgive me for my rudeness, my name is Maridis Seleq Volmilarg. Excuse me for my lack of manners just now" I smoothly curtsied.

Yaiii~ I didn't know being shameless is this embarrassing.

I sneaked a peak at the lad. He doesn't seem to mind. Fuuh~

He tilted his head, seeming lost. This is the second time he does so. "Why are you suddenly so formal?" He paused before continuing, "Are you now, afraid of me?"

Why is he so fixated on that part? Could it be that he mistook someone's nosebleed (because he looks ethereal) as someone got killed because they're scared of him?

Hmm, might be so. Ikemen are often known as oblivious.

"I am not afraid of you." I stated, gazing directly into his cyan eyes.

Bluntness in words can be the sharpest sword.... is what I'd like to say but it's actually, 'You need to be straight with a dense person'. Trust me. I've read many books where the idiot prince wouldn't get it unless the protagonist rejected him magnificently.

Oh, but this ikemen isn't an idiot. He's just too oblivious. It's not because I'm bias towards ikemen, OK!? That's definitely not it!

"At least you are not lying, I supposed..." He muttered. And again his face blossomed into a big smile. "I'm glad" He added.

...Let's not comment on how beautful he is right now. It was such a dimly-litted night just before so how come the moon's suddenly shining brightly. Are you doing this on purpose? Hey, special background effect team!

His character settings too! Isn't this too mystifying!? There must be more to his words. I just knew it! Hey, character designs team! Or should I say, HEY AUTHOR! I need your book! You gotta tell me there's more in stocks. GPS ain't working in this world 'cause there's no satellite so could you draw me a map, the way to the shop, please!?

The light reflected from the moon gently adorned his being. His cyan orbs glowed further than before, enchanting its radiance. Ethereal describes him almost perfectly. I can't shake my eyes off from him.

What is his name, I wonder?

"Um, may I--" Before I finished my sentence...

"Young lady!" Someone cut my words.

I turned around on a reflex. It was my maid. I guess it's time to go back.

I turned back to ikemen-san only to see that he was gone. Ah-re? I wasn't talking to a ghost right? For some reason, that explanation seemed plausible.
