บท 197: Princess Eleanora

"Princess Eleanora, you really need to wake up. The sun is so high in the sky that it will soon set before you can even go for a stroll."

The maid looked down at the young woman, who was impervious to her entreaty. The princess could really sleep. Even with the sun shining down on her face, she remained unmoved, curled up peacefully while she hugged her pillow in her sleep. 

She sighed and gently tried to take the pillow from the princess, who clung to it stubbornly.

"Princess, please wake up," the maid pleaded her tone a blend of frustration and concern.

The young lady slowly opened one eye, her gaze locking with her maid's. "So, what if I sleep the day away? It's not like I have any work to do. I already finished my homework, didn't I? I don't feel like taking a stroll today or practicing dancing or whatever. I am just going to sleep today and make it disappear. I'll wake up tomorrow straight away."

"Princess, you cannot do that!"
