[ENG] The Useless Duchess's Second Chance 122. The Mysterious Girl
“Fresh fruit, please buy our fresh fruit!”“Fresh vegetables straight from the farmer! Come buy before they run out!”Princess Elle stared in amazement at the market interactions in the Sigmund Kingdom's capital. Perhaps because the Sigmund Kingdom was well-known for its extraordinary abundance of natural produce, Princess Elle could see that the market in the Sigmund Kingdom was selling various vegetables and fruits that the princess had never eaten before. The girl looked at the vegetables and fruits one by one until some sellers couldn't help but stare at Princess Elle with strange looks.Since Princess Elle had firmly rejected the special guards prepared by King Raoul, the girl went to the market in disguise this time. In ordinary noble attire, no one could have guessed that the girl who constantly wandered around the market was the princess of the Orvel Kingdom. The girl was so excited when she saw things she had never seen before until someone's hand was holding her back.“Princ

Hearing the woman's screams and the mention of 'Her Grace', General Dion finally realized his mistake and hastily lowered his sword again. From start to finish, the girl who had been threatened just smiled gently while looking at them. The girl stopped as her maid was about to put on her body for her. Furthermore, the girl even introduced herself respectfully to Princess Elle.“Sorry if I startled you, Your Highness. Then, please forgive my maid's disrespect as well. I, Duchess Alison, greet Her Highness, Princess Elle. May health and prosperity always be with you.”Princess Elle was completely shocked when she realized that this beautiful girl in front of her was someone Raoul always talked about in his spare time. Even if Ariana was currently wearing simple clothes, Princess Elle still couldn't stop admiring the girl's beauty and strength. Ariana should have an age that is not much different from Princess Elle. However, both her appearance and demeanor looked very different from Pri

“Your Majesty, please wait for me!”Even as General Dion called out behind her, Princess Elle still didn't stop running until she was far enough from where Ariana was. The princess only stopped when she finally reached a fairly quiet place. Princess Elle's vision blurred, when she realized that she had actually been crying along the way.The whole time, Princess Elle was actually aware that Raoul had never looked at her as a romantic partner. Even if they had a rough time together, then danced amidst a glittering party, Princess Elle always knew that Raoul's thoughts were only on Ariana.Previously, Princess Elle had confidently said that she would stay by Raoul's side until the king could accept her love. But when Princess Elle saw her love rival in person, the girl immediately knew that she had no chance of winning against Ariana. Ariana was probably trying to appear to have no feelings toward Raoul. However, the look in her eyes still couldn't lie. Ariana clearly cared about Raoul.

After Princess Elle ran away from Ariana just like that, Duchess Alison spent the rest of the day thinking about what the princess had said to her. Even Marquis Curtis had said the same thing to Ariana before. People wanted Ariana to open her heart to Raoul, so she could see how sincerely the king had loved her all along.Indeed, Ariana needs a partner as soon as possible. But the fear that she'd screw things up by marrying Raoul made Ariana rethink everything. The girl had been daydreaming all day. And even if she sleeps, the girl can't get a good night's sleep.On that day, Ariana dreamed of something she had forgotten even in her previous life. She dreams about her childhood life. In the dream, she returns to being an eleven-year-old Ariana who doesn't know much. At that time, she had just lost both of her parents and was forced to live with her grandfather in the main residence of the Alison family.For Ariana, who was used to being spoiled by her parents, Duke Andrew was too stri
Last Updated : 2022-11-18[ENG] The Useless Duchess's Second Chance 126. True Feeling
When Ariana woke up again, the girl immediately sat and pondered for quite a long time. Ariana never thought that there was another reason behind her fall in the pool behind her residence. Ariana never knew that she had fallen in love with Raoul first, and not Emilio, as she had always thought. Her feelings for Raoul were even stronger because, at that time, only Raoul had truly comforted her during her difficult time.Ariana subconsciously smiled bitterly. The girl had no idea that Raoul would still be the same good man even after he grew up. At that time, Ariana was still too young to realize that Raoul was completely innocent and was only trying to protect her. But now she knew, and her feelings suddenly became complicated about the king.After obtaining the last fragment of memory that she couldn't get in her previous world, Ariana finally realized how important her position was in Raoul's heart. Her heart felt like it was being stabbed by a thousand needles, as she recalled Emili

Along the way, Raoul was so nervous like seeing Ariana was a big deal. After they were almost out of touch due to their busy schedules, Raoul was afraid that Ariana would feel awkward if they suddenly met. However, Marquis Curtis had assured him that Ariana would not be angry even if Raoul came without making an appointment beforehand. That point alone proved that Ariana did have a soft spot for the king.“Your Majesty, we have arrived.”Raoul's heart skipped a beat when Captain Allen informed him that they had managed to enter the gates of Alison's residence with ease. Ariana really made it easy for him. Raoul's ears slowly turned red, as he felt ashamed of his thoughts.As soon as Raoul got off his horse carriage, the man saw that Ariana was also ready to go somewhere in her carriage. The king suddenly felt he couldn't say anything. His spirits dropped drastically when Raoul felt that his visit to Ariana was actually disturbing the girl's activities.“Aria, I ….”Raoul was at a loss
Last Updated : 2022-11-21[ENG] The Useless Duchess's Second Chance 128. Wedding Preparation
“Wow ….”When Princess Elle saw the wedding preparations between Ariana and Raoul, the princess could no longer hold back her admiration for it. Perhaps because it was a wedding that everyone expected, almost the entire population of the Sigmund Kingdom joined in celebrating the happy day. A festival was held in all areas of the Sigmund Kingdom. Almost everywhere Princess Elle went, she would see the excitement of the festival to welcome their king's wedding.“Seeing this crowd, I'm grateful we didn't go home before hearing the news of this wedding. With this crowd, we might be late for their wedding if we decide to return to the Orvel Kingdom first.”General Dion watched as Princess Elle smiled while observing the excitement of the surrounding festival. The man remembered Princess Elle, who was still crying over Raoul a few months ago, then spoke to the princess in a gloomy tone.“You are no longer sad about this, Princess?” asked General Dion worriedly. This time, Princess Elle gave

When Ariana finally arrived at the garden behind her house, she could see that Princess Elle had been sitting on one of the chairs she prepared, with General Dion standing behind her. When Princess Elle noticed Ariana's arrival, the princess immediately stood up to welcome the future queen of the Sigmund Kingdom.“Greetings, Duchess Alison. I hope I didn't bother you by coming today.”After their awkward parting a few months ago, Ariana was a little relieved when she saw that Princess Elle seemed to have forgotten about the incident. Ariana also gave formal greetings to the princess. The woman bowed gracefully, then returned the greeting from Princess Elle.“Long time no see, Your Highness. It is an honor for me to welcome you into my residence.”Princess Elle smiled after she heard Ariana's greeting. “I hope you're not being too formal with me, Duchess Alison. After all, you'll soon be Queen of the Kingdom of Sigmund,” she said cheerfully. But in the next second, she slightly regrett

[ENG] The Useless Duchess's Second Chance Explanation About This Story
I thought I should make this an explanatory chapter, so that I can explain what has been going on in this story. First of all, those who go back in time or travel to other worlds do not simply send their souls to do so. They don't. They only send a fragment of their soul to fix their biggest unresolved regret. Not everyone can also go back in time like Ariana or Emilio. Only those who have the greatest regrets, or are responsible for the death of many lives, can go back in time or move to another world to right their wrongs. I hope that explains why Raoul's soul didn't transmigrate in the last arc. Yes, he also probably killed a lot of people to take over the throne. But Raoul was satisfied with the life he was living, so he didn't transmigrate or go back in time once he died. Then, did anyone realize that Ariana in each of these lives had a completely different personality? Ariana in her first life was a childish girl. She tends to be impulsive with her actions. And of course becau

["Did your exams go well? I heard from Aunt Melisa that you just got back from a business trip when exam season started. Emilio, even if you want to get into the business world as soon as possible like your parents, forcing yourself to do so is not a good thing either."]Emilio smiled softly as he heard his lover's nagging from the earphones he was using. The man felt lucky that in this world, even though they were now separated by distance, the two of them could still be in touch as if they had always been together. Emilio's gaze softened when he looked at Ariana, who was having a video call with him while lying on her big bed. At least by seeing that Ariana was comfortable with her own family, Emilio felt that the choice he made two years ago was the right one."Things are going well, Ariana. But still ... I can hardly believe my beloved can already nag me at this point."Ariana chuckled when she heard Emilio's complaint. Actually, even if Emilio sounded like he was complaining beca

When Ariana opened her eyes again, this time the girl was immediately greeted by the bright light of the all-white room lights. The girl heard several footsteps coming towards her. Ariana slowly changed her gaze and saw Emilio, Melisa, and Alister all approaching her with a look of surprise and relief on their faces.Ah, I'm still alive. That's what Ariana immediately thought when she realized that she was in the hospital all this time. Ariana's heart was squeezed when she saw Emilio crying and holding her hand tightly. Although Emilio didn't say anything, Ariana knew he was the most thankful one when she was awake at this moment."You're finally awake, Ariana," Emilio said in a trembling voice. The man bit his lip hard. Even though Emilio had agreed to attend counseling sessions aimed at reducing his unhealthy obsession with Ariana, Emilio still felt like he was suffocating when he saw that Ariana had regained her thinness in just a few days."I shouldn't have left you at that time. I

"The Ariana we know is the daughter of Alison's family, who has been missing all this time. Emilio, Ariana's family is alive, and they are still searching for their daughter today."Emilio's mind was a mess when he heard his father's words. All this time, even though he sounded evil, Emilio felt happy when he heard that Ariana no longer had anyone in this world. Emilio thought there would be no one to take Ariana away from him from now on. But now, he had to accept the fact that someone could take Ariana away from him whenever they wanted.If Ariana was asked to choose between her family or her lover, her choice had always been clear in her two previous lives. Emilio looked at Ariana with a dark gaze. His bad thoughts rose again, as he started planning how to hide Ariana from Alison's family.Once Alister and Melisa saw the evil look in Emilio's eyes, they were finally convinced of their choice. Neither of them wanted to separate the two after the terrible events they went through. Ho

With Ariana's kidnapping accident, Alister and Melisa, who were supposed to be away for a week on a business trip, ended up cutting their business trip short by three days. The two took the earliest flight and arrived at the hospital in the morning. In Ariana's hospital room, the two met Ian, and some bodyguards, who looked like they hadn't slept for a few days. The one who looked the worst was, of course, Ian. The bespectacled man, who usually always looked neat, now appeared with messy hair in front of them. Even his glasses which were usually properly fitted looked a little lopsided because Ian was in a hurry to fix them."Welcome back, Mr. Alister, Mrs. Melisa."They greeted Alister and Melisa in unison while bowing slightly. Alister nodded and gestured for them to sit down again. He couldn't bear to see them standing when they already looked like the undead."Ian, where was Emilio when Ariana was here?"As soon as they sat down, Melisa who couldn't find her son anywhere immediate

Bang!Ariana closed her eyes and prepared herself to face death. But after all this time, the pain and death she expected didn't happen either. Instead, Ariana could feel that the masked man's grip on her was weakening as time passed. Ariana opened her eyes, then saw the gruesome wound on the side of the man's head."Police, don't move!"Not far from their position, Not far from their position, Ariana saw that Emilio had just shot someone in order to save her. Behind the teenager, a group of police suddenly appeared out of nowhere. Some of the policemen moved quickly to fight the armed robbers, while others immediately secured the hostages. The badly injured Ariana was caught in the middle of the chaos. She could hear someone walking over and calling her name. Ariana smiled a little. There was no mistaking it, this person who was approaching her was the same person who shot dead the masked man who tried to kill her.Although Ariana's eyes were already heavy when Emilio was able to app

While everyone was busy searching for the whereabouts of the hostages taken by the robbers, Ariana, who had been taken by her Uncle finally woke up due to the abnormal shaking she had been feeling. As soon as she opened her eyes, Ariana was shocked to find that she had been in a fast-moving car all this time. Her limp body was crushed in the middle of two men with large bodies. Her hands were tightly bound, while her mouth was gagged with a cloth covered with plaster so she couldn't speak or scream.On the driver's seat, Daedalus, who had noticed Ariana's movement, turned to look at the girl. His face which had been shrouded in anger had now returned to a gentle look. The man smiled slightly, as he spoke in a soft tone to Ariana."Ariana, you can sleep longer, you know. We're going to a place so far away after this. Uncle has thought of it properly. In order for no one else to find and snatch you from Uncle, we should probably go to a place where no one else will recognize us."Ariana

Ever since Emilio finished his group work, the young man hadn't stopped checking his phone with a furrowed brow. It was unusual for Ariana to ignore his calls like this. Ever since Melisa bought the girl a new cell phone, Ariana was always ready to answer their calls even if the girl was asleep.But this time, Emilio didn't get the answer he wanted even if he had called dozens of times. The young man started to feel something was wrong, so he finally asked Ian to give him the phone number of the bodyguard who was asked to guard Ariana at her house.[The number you have reached, cannot be reached.]Emilio grew impatient when he didn't get a positive answer from the people around Ariana. The young man called all the numbers he knew. But in the end, only Aunt May answered and said that she had returned to her own home since the sun had set."Ian, speed up our journey home. Then, tell Father that I can't get in touch with whoever is in charge of looking after Ariana at home.""Yes, Young
