Kapitel 16: Back to Being a Prisoner

Alicia's worries subsided a little when she first stepped out of the chamber. She was mesmerized as she walked through the long hallway with a red carpet that stretched along the hall. On the side of the aisle, large golden pillars lined up neatly with unique decorations that reinforce the impression of a palace.

Chandeliers with a luxurious style illuminate the long hallway and give an elegant impression. Along the way, she saw that there were many doors lined up. Maybe if she was asked to return to her chamber again, she would definitely get lost.

Paying too much attention to the extravagant decoration of the hallway, she was left a few meters behind by Belle. When she realized it, she immediately closed the distance by running.

Belle's sudden coldness made Alicia hesitate to speak or ask her again. She actually wanted to ask who the Young Master really was and where she was now.

The two of them continued on without a word of conversation until they exited the hallway and came to a large hall with a grand staircase on the right.

Alicia was speechless as she looked at the vast hall that stretched out in front of her. It was hard for a country girl to explain how luxurious the place was.

The square-shaped hall was surrounded by balconies. She was a little worried when she wanted to look up. She was afraid that someone was watching her. And luckily, when she got up the courage to look up, she didn't see a single person there.

'What a tall building!' It was the first time she had seen the inside of such a tall building. This palace has 5 floors.

Even though Alicia had seen it from outside the palace when she was running away, she didn't expect it to be this grand when she saw it from the inside.

'Even though the building is big, why is there no one here?' The girl staring at the hall was astonished that she didn't find anyone other than herself and Belle. But on the other hand, she feels grateful because she doesn't need to interact with anyone who can provoke her trauma.

"This is the Ballroom. Your bedroom is on the 3rd floor." Belle, who had gone up the stairs, immediately called out to Alicia. The latter was still staring at the spacious room without moving.

Alicia was surprised when Belle shouted at her slightly. Since there was no one there, she still wanted to keep an eye on every luxurious decoration in the ballroom. Still, seeing Belle waiting for her, she immediately followed her.

While climbing the stairs, she could see the other stairs on the other side. She doesn't really understand why luxury buildings always have 2 stairs to go up to each floor, even though they always use one staircase. That's a waste!

While following Belle, they finally arrived at a double door that looked luxurious. The place was a bit far from the hall and the stairs they had climbed before.

"This is your room. Since there are many rooms here you should not wander around if you don't want to get lost." Belle opened the bedroom door and asked Alicia to come in.

Without taking any action, Alicia could only follow Belle's request. She didn't want Belle to get into any more trouble.

"I'll be back in an hour. You better get ready." As soon as Alicia entered, Belle immediately closed the door while giving a message.

Unlike when she was in the treatment room, now she is locked in the bedroom. "Gosh, now I'm really locked up. Then for what purpose did she advise me not to wander around? And what does she mean by getting ready? What should I prepare?"

Again Belle said something she couldn't understand and raised many questions in her mind. "Gosh, Belle. Your words are kind of a tricky riddle. What exactly happened to you?"

Alicia sighed then turned to look at her new bedroom. "W-what does this mean?!"

Different from her thoughts of being transferred to a narrow and dark prison, she really didn't expect that she would be transferred to a room even more luxurious than her treatment room.

On the left side, there is a luxurious canopy bed. The bed is accompanied by a mosquito net roof with a unique design. Next to the bed, there is a small wardrobe and a night lamp above it.

Although the room size is smaller than the treatment room, the furniture provided is more complete and luxurious. Alicia was speechless when she saw the shiny items neatly arranged in the room.

Curious about the unique furniture in the room, she ignored Belle's vague request and began exploring her bedroom enthusiastically.

In addition to exploring, she is also looking for an really needed item. "I wish I could find a mirror here."

She began to search the room for a object even rarer than luxury items. After scouring all corners of the bedroom, she couldn't find a mirror at all. But, from her exploration, she found some oddities about her new bedroom.

"There's a dressing table, but no mirror. There's only ventilation without a window. What kind of bed is this anyway? Did they do it on purpose?" She wondered why the mirror was removed from around her. She was sure that it was done on purpose because the mirror on the dressing table also looked freshly released, and there were wood crumbs left on the table.

She was annoyed by that, and when she looked at the wall near the entrance, she saw that another door was slightly ajar. Curious about what was inside, she immediately approached the door and opened it.
