All Chapters of The Crown Prince Thinks I'm a Guy: Chapter 1 - Chapter 10

 When I was a young girl, I used to dress myself up as a boy. The maids didn't mind and instead found it quite cute."Look! The little princess is at it again!" they would exclaim in delight, with their powdered faces and pink-stained lips.I would order a few of these giggling maids to buy me clothes fit for a middle class boy. They would dress me up, and when they laughingly declared me "handsome" or "a future lady killer", I would proceed to sneak out of the castle.Of course, my parents, the king and queen of the Kingdom of Saule, didn't know of my secret hobby. It wasn't that hard to hide it from them. After all, I was a daughter and not a son.In the Kingdom of Saule... Rather, in the Aerim Continent, if you were born a girl, you were already tied to a dire future. The common women would only be of use as child-bearers. If a learned woman chooses to be a priestess for the Sun God Solus, then she would be of better use as a healer or a s

 It took a while for me to get used to my infantile body.But it's not like I had anything to do at my age. I seemed to have gone back into the time I was barely 5 years old. The maids kept babbling about how I shouldn't go dressing myself up as a boy anymore. They all seemed so outraged when they talked about it; a great contrast to their giggling facades in my past life."Was it because I cried that day?" I mumbled to myself while one of my senior maids tended to my hair."What did you say, Lady Elle?" the maid asked, probably surprised at the length and clarity of my words.I only smiled in return; a bright, childlike smile that could only appease the grown woman. She practically swooned at my cuteness, momentarily stunned.While my maid was preoccupied, I began to think of my first day here. I believe that that moment was probably the first time I had decided to don a boy's clothes. In the standpoint of my maids, they simply dresse

 I dreamed of the past. The life I once lived.In particular, I dreamed of an early memory; one that I never would have remembered in my 18-year-old body. No, I chose to forget about it. What use is a daunting memory to an already weary young woman?I was still so young. Probably even younger than I am now. Unlike most infant girls, I was born with a strong body and a quick mind. It never was of great use to me as I grew up as an obedient woman, but back then, the maids and the worker boys at the castle would simply admire my health.'Never have I seen such a strong young miss!' they would exclaim.Most babies, if not tended to properly, would likely die prematurely. This is especially so for baby girls. After all, unlike the prized boys, these babies were often left uncared for. Why waste precious medicine and herbs on a mere baby girl?But, no, as luck would have it, I grew strong. Neglect has not made me weak, and instead, it has he

 The Kingdom of Saule covered a great expanse of land, its territory reaching the North-most parts of the Aerim Continent. On the far West, beyond the civil woods, lie the land of shamans inside the Mystical Forest. The central part of the continent is a vast plain, where nomads start out their journey, and where all men are free. Countless small territories and tinier castle keeps, formed by ambitious commoners or exiled nobility, are scattered on the wide central plains. The East shows the ruins of the once great Lost Kingdom, while even its glorious name has been buried underneath the ink-like sand. And finally, on the far South, facing the treacherous seas where the largest magical beasts lurk, is the greatest nation, the Mond Empire.That's where we must go...I sighed, my tiny sound clearly heard inside the small, yet comfortable carriage. My nanny, Miss Hestia, turned to look at me with concern and a bit of curiosity."What has gotten you sig

 *BANG!*"Was that them?" Prince Clement asked while he was shielded by Norman. Thankfully, I was included inside the body shield.I peeked from under Norman's beastly arms. The carriage had been hit by a fire blast. There was now a hole on the left side of the carriage."Wow," I muttered in awe. "I wonder how hot a fire is needed to melt the sides of a royal carriage, while maintaining the stability of the carriage itself?"Thankfully, Norman didn't seem to have heard me. My brother did, though. His golden brows went up and he answered me, "It was probably a Steady Meteor. It's an advanced fire magic that releases a slow moving ball of fire. The stronger the mage, the higher the temperature the ball."I nodded in understanding. "So that means someone wants us alive, but still wants us exposed to danger. Normunculus, make sure you protect your liege. I suspect a competent mage-warrior will enter our carriage to steal or hurt the prince
