About Yourself

・You can use the ability “Water Mirror” that lets you imitate physical appearances of anyone you have met, even if you only met them once. But you can only use it to either humans or demi-humans.
・When using “Water Mirror,” you not only can imitate someone’s physical appearances, but also their blood, skin, and smell. You can construct your skin tissue and make it resembles the clothing of the aforementioned person. But the one thing you cannot change is the location of your heart.
・”Water Mirror” requires the user to put magic on the person they’re trying to imitate once, and once more on themselves when transforming into said person.

Main Scenario A
~Talk with the King~
I heard the Loden castle was built thousands of years ago and had received numerous repairs over time.
And my, it does look old-fashioned.
When I opened the doors and went inside the great hall, King Val was already there.
It seems he just finished talking with King Eida.
But it seems like it wasn’t a good talk at all. King Val looked like he was racking up his brain for something.
When I entered the throne room, King Eida was already standing there, with his back facing me.
“King Eida. It has been quite a while.”
“Oh, Marine. It's you. Let’s just cut it short.”
I can feel his voice was somewhat frigid compared to how it was 10 years ago.
“Yes, as long as I receive my promised treasure, I shall promptly leave if you wish so.”
I boldly claim my intention of seeing him.
And he answered with something I have never expected.
“10 years ago, I told you that I would give you treasures…
But the situation changed. There’s nothing I could give you. Forget that we ever had that promise.”
He said it so casually. While still facing his back towards me, he then gazed towards the window.
I was of course upset, but I tried to hide it.
“What an awful joke, King Eida, if that’s even a joke at all.
Then I must take back my vote for the peace agreement.”
I fixed my posture and said with a stern voice.
But upon hearing my words, Eida laughed sarcastically.
“That piece of paper is just to buy me time.
Anyway, I have no treasure to give you.
You can step down from the agreement for all I care.”
Eida finally turned his face towards me.
He looked completely different from 10 years ago.
What was once a face constantly plastered with a warm smile now just feels bitterly cold.
His eyes darken and his smile curled into a twisted sneer.
Seeing his drastic change has taken me aback.
King Eida once again turned his back and went towards the bedroom.
King Eida was working his finger to the bone trying to make the peace agreement a reality.
But now, he treated it as if it was a piece of trash.
King Eida had surely changed.
The treasure I received from him 10 years ago will run out soon.
If it all gone, surely my own life will be in danger.
For the future of the seafolk too, I must get my hands on treasures.
Oh, that reminds me, the treasury room of the Loden castle lies right beside the throne room.
Is there a way I can sneak my way inside, I wonder.
But there’s other race representatives I must be wary of as well.
Then, an idea sprung to my head.
I casted my magic Water Mirror onto King Eida just before he enters the bedroom.
A seafolk must never cast magic on land. That has been a widely known taboo amongst the seafolk.
Therefore if this fact were to be put to light, I will surely be executed.
But if no one finds out, then there will be no problem.
Main Scenario B
~Treasure Heist~
If I have no treasure left to my name, I will once again be imprisoned. I must do whatever it takes to steal the treasures from the Loden castle and bring it to my homeland.
00:00 -Water Mirror-
When I checked the treasury room, it didn't seem to be locked.
But if I just go inside carelessly, there is a chance the other representatives will spot me going or exiting from there.
So I thought that if I imitate King Eida’s appearance using Water Mirror and sneak into the treasury, no one would find it weird.
During my previous talk with King Eida, I carefully placed my magic unto him so he wouldn't notice.
Some traces of that magic will linger, but if nothing happens it shouldn’t pose a problem.
I went to the dining hall and confirmed no one was there.
I then used my magic Water Mirror to change my body to that of King Eida.
I opened the dining hall door and proceeded towards the treasury.
00:10 -Blunder-
On my way to the treasury, I was spotted by King Val.
And he had completely thought that I was King Eida.
King Val said to me with a serious expression.
“Let’s talk again”
Yet of course, I cannot make head nor tail of what he wants to talk about.
So I tried to shake him off with words.
“I have nothing to talk about with you.”
But King Val so desperately wants to talk privately with me and dragged me towards the dining hall.
If I refuse anymore than this, he will surely see me as suspicious.
So I decided to follow him to the dining hall.
For some strange reason, I can’t seem to remember what happened next.
00:20 -???-
I can’t remember what I was doing during this time.
00:30 -???-
I can’t remember what I was doing during this time.
00:40 -The Treasury-
When I came to, I was already inside the treasury room.
I don’t know why, but my memories from 20 minutes ago had mysteriously disappeared.
When I looked at my hands, there was blood on it.
I can’t remember whose blood it was. But at least I know that it wasn’t my own.
I then remembered that I originally planned to enter the treasury in the first place to grab some treasures.
But searched as hard as I could, I found no such thing in there.
King Eida must’ve hid it in a different place. Yes, that must be it!
Wanting to inquire King Eida once more, I head towards the throne room.
00:50 -Eida’s Corpse-
When I headed towards the throne room from the treasury, I noticed trails of blood coming from the dining hall and into the treasury.
When I entered the throne room, I was greeted by a horrifying sight.
King Eida lies limp on the ground in front of his throne, with pools of his own blood surrounding him.
Amidst the crimson fluid, lies a lone small sword.
King Eida’s breathing had completely stopped.
I was taken aback so much I started screaming.
01:00 -Incident-
Following my scream, the other race representative one by one starts coming into the throne room.
When King Eida’s body fell into their line of sight, I could see them all genuinely shocked.
Is there a possibility that the culprit was one of the representatives here…?
But first and foremost, I must find a way to get my missing memories back.
Is there something I could do to retrieve it, I wonder.
