38. Two faces. Fallen leaves and foliage (3)

Welcome party for freshmen.

Students gather at the banquet hall and face each other and laugh hahahaha hoho.

We interact with other departments, and if we find someone we like, we approach them without hesitation.

They are approaching each other under the pretext of friendly exchange and spending their youth together.

‘I envy you. Because I can enjoy the banquet without thinking.’

Me and Charlotte looked down at them from above.

She had the same envy in her eyes as I did.

The students enjoying their youth seemed interesting to her.

“Are banquets fun?”

“… Just enjoy It’s not better than the banquet in Orsia Kingdom. The banquet in the kingdom is on a different level.”

Charlotte raised her head to the sky and said, recalling the kingdom’s banquet.

Like reminiscing about the past.

“A dancer dancing in a splendid palace. Bard making music. Outstanding talent who enjoys the position. There is nothing lacking.”

“The kingdom of Orsia seems to be a better place than I heard.”

“It’s a nice place. Also very. You will be very surprised if you come once. Because it is similar to the Empire or more.”

Charlotte’s expression didn’t change at all.

He spoke like a man longing for his beautiful hometown.

However, I know her true intentions.

‘It’s all lies.’

A dancer who dances?

It must be fawning, hovering only near the king.

A bard making music?

Because there are not enough people, they must be making music to fill in the noise somehow.

Outstanding talent who enjoys his seat?

There’s nothing like that, and only those who can please the king will remain.

‘Because the king killed talented people who spat advice toward him.’

The situation in the kingdom of Orsia is seriously broken.

For that reason, the king of the kingdom decided to steal talented people from other countries as a last resort.

He deployed industrial spies to trick him into stealing talent from other countries, using the numerous offspring he had fathered.

Threatening death if they return empty-handed or fail to bring in talented people.

Charlotte’s status is a princess, but her situation is at the edge of a precipice.

I smiled softly at Charlotte’s invitation.

“Next time I have a chance, I will visit you. I’m also curious about the Kingdom of Orcia.”

“… Ok, thanks. If you come, I will welcome you properly. Really.”

Saying that, Charlotte moved her body a little and came closer to me.

A distance where each other’s shoulders could touch each other even if they moved just a little.

I could feel the sweet smell of perfume in my nose as if I had prepared properly today.

‘… They’re so close that there’s nowhere to look.’

A thin, revealing dress.

You can see her fine skin wherever you look.

Even the appearance with light makeup belongs to the charming side, so I can’t even look at her face.

I kept my eyes on the students below to keep my composure.

There were people with familiar faces.

I need to change the subject.

“The crown prince has stuck with that young lady from the beginning. Was her name Elisha?”

“Yes, that’s the name. I saw it in the same culture. A female student from a commoner background.”

Elisha.

My Korean name is Yoo Yi-seo.

And the heroine of ‘The Fiance Who Punishes Villains’.

She was dragged around the banquet hall by the prince’s hand.

Looking at her face, she looked very tired.

However, the prince introduced her Elisha with her expressionless face as if to brag about her.

What can I say?

“Because she is my woman, don’t touch her. From a distance, it seems to be paying attention.”

“… I know.”

Charlotte, who has an excellent eye for seeing, hit the mark.

As if he was possessed by Elisha, the prince did not take his eyes off Elisha and imprinted it on others.

This woman is my woman.

Never touch me.

That look seemed like an obsession she had seen many of her other villains as well.

‘Come to think of it, you and I are comrades. I wonder if he’s going through the same experience as me.’

I’m not going to be obsessed with as many people as I am.

Since I was still thinking about that, Charlotte expressed a question.

“By the way, how did that ordinary kid seduce the prince? Aren’t you curious? What kind of attraction does he have? Could the imperial prince be doing that?”

Charlotte searches for prey with curious eyes.

I answered soullessly, hiding what I knew.

“It’s just that, even before entering the academy, we must have been compatible.”

“… Do you want to be in love?”

“Perhaps.”

“That’s a bit envious. Love I love… I want to try… “

Charlotte smiled softly, not arrogantly.

A face with more generous eyes.

It wasn’t a face tricked by a mask, but a warm girl’s face.

That moment.

“Princess.”

Rose, standing behind her, summoned her Charlotte, sending her back to her reality.

Charlotte put on her arrogant mask again.

I used to survive.

A mask stuck to your face.

“… I know. I’ll take care of it.”

Charlotte sighed in response.

Then, she raised her hand to her forehead and slightly frowned.

“It’s hot and my head hurts. Let’s get some fresh air Banquet hall, frankly. Isn’t it fun?”

“Well, it’s not that much fun, but… “

“Then, let’s go out and play with me. It will be more fun than the banquet hall.”

Charlotte smiled seductively.

There is probably no man who can’t easily turn down that charming figure.

But.

“Sorry.”

“… What?”

I intend to refuse.

“I have an appointment.”

Because if you pass over too easily, the value will drop.

Time to push and pull appropriately.

And…

‘It’s getting hard for me to handle the gaze.’

Bluebell glares at me while talking to her friends.

It seems like I have to be there unconditionally even in a fancy place.

Glitting his teeth with an expression full of jealousy.

Yuri, who attended the party late, is hesitant about whether this kind of place is burdensome.

However.

I couldn’t ignore the stare at me as I was talking to Charlotte.

Yuri seems to start an incident right away to get my attention.

I can’t approach because there are too many people, so I’m trying to get me to come.

I was eagerly averting my gaze to cause something to happen.

I rushed out to leave.

“Today’s banquet was fun. Let’s say hello when we see you in the next class. Is it okay if I sit next to you then?”

A refusal to give room for following.

It seemed that he had struck a blow of conversion.

Perhaps it was a shock to be rejected by me, Charlotte’s voice trembled.

“… It’s okay, it’s okay. Doesn’t care. I’ll see you tomorrow.”

It looked quite absurd.

I turned my head away, not paying much attention.

“Okay, see you tomorrow.”

Looking at it now, it looked more dangerous that way.

The task of controlling the dangers of the villains is more difficult than expected.

There were a lot of things to pay close attention to.

What worries me more than that is…

‘Where is Nadia today?’

Nadia didn’t even show off her nose at the banquet.

I wonder what she is doing now.

That was the point that bothered me the most.

***

Damian leaves.

Charlotte was making an absurd expression.

Because something unexpected happened.

“… Rose.”

“Yes, Princess.”

“Have I gained weight?”

“No, she is still beautiful.”

“But why? Would he have ignored my proposal? He purposely wore slutty clothes today.”

Charlotte looked down at her dress.

A cool dress with open chest and white skin.

However, Damian did not pay attention to his body at all, and he endured the fragrance with aphrodisiac ingredients.

“I’ve been taught that this way he can easily seduce men. Aren’t I attractive?”

“Because of that, aren’t there a lot of men who pay attention to the princess?”

Charlotte looked down at those words.

Definitely.

Many men with red faces were staring at me.

“By the way, I didn’t come here to seduce those idiots, did I? It’s not even worth looking at them. Give me some clothes, Rose.”

“Yes, Princess.”

Rose handed the top to Charlotte.

With the purpose gone, Charlotte braced herself.

Because he didn’t have to show it anymore.

“There are rumors that there are many women around. Do not reveal female color. It won’t be as easy as you think.”

Still.

“As hard as it is to get. You must have better skills. He answered all my questions in class too. That’s the right word too. Everything was justified.”

Interesting.

It seems that he has a brain that can be compared to his reputation as a genius.

That’s unfortunate.

“I want to see force, but… that would be hard… “

Is his head worth it?

Or is the body worth it?

Charlotte wanted to know properly.

“If it’s worth that much, I’m confident to give my whole body… “

Not yet.

Charlotte wasn’t sure.

But deep in the heart.

His value was highly valued.

More than the imperial heir, the crown prince.

“… It’s a bit embarrassing though. I dressed like this and prepared a lot.”

I’m ashamed to be rejected.

“I was confident…”

Charlotte buried his face in the railing to hide his expression.

That reddened face was that of a young girl.

***

Calmizing Bluebell and Yuri was as difficult as it was easy.

You may be wondering what that means.

It was both difficult and easy.

“What did you talk about with that woman? Do you really want to go back? Is it because you want to see me falling behind? I told you to think of me first, why are you laughing with another woman?”

“… No, I wasn’t laughing.”

“I laughed. I’ve seen it all I captured it with my own eyes!!”

During Bluebell’s exploding rage.

“… Calm down. I’ll go home and think about it slowly. Seriously about you.”

“… Sir, should I trust you? I’m bored to death I believe in this one more time. Really. Think right. If you don’t like me, I’ll die.”

Are you calming your burning emotions?

I was able to subdue Bluebell’s fiery heart.

Difficult yet easy meant this.

Of course, Yuri’s situation was the same.

“… Dee, Damian. Who is that girl I, she was supposed to be with me at the banquet hall… Why did you leave me… ? You don’t need me… ?”

“No, she is a friend I met in liberal arts. She only spoke briefly. She was waiting for you And the banquet was not very interesting.”

Than that.

“I think it’s because you’re not here.”

“M-, what…!?”

“Yuri, your dress is pretty today. It’s the prettiest thing I’ve ever seen.”

“Ehehehe… that, yeah… ? I am really pretty… ?”

“Sure.”

“Among the people Damian saw… ?”

“Of course not.”

Taking advantage of the opportunity to feel better with compliments.

I was able to survive safely.

Should I say it’s my secret to surviving among the villains?

In a way, they were straddling both legs, so they had to use their brains well and be good at improvising.

“Anything that can be solved with words is an easy task… “

Even if it’s difficult because your life is at stake.

But now that everything has been explained, I am free.

After the banquet was over, I decided to go back to the dormitory.

Because it is a free space where only I can be alone.

However.

Kiki-

The moment I opened the door and entered the dormitory.

I felt a strange sense of incongruity somewhere.

I can feel the gaze, and I can feel the presence.

Most importantly, the cold wind of the evening is blowing toward me.

“… I must have closed the window and left.”

Why is the window open?

It’s strange.

In the back of that room.

It feels like something is opening its mouth towards me.

‘Let’s go out.’

If you don’t know the other person, it’s better not to attack them.

I slowly walked back and tried to leave the dormitory.

However, green light is leaking from that room.

“You are here at last, Damian.”

The moment I heard Nadia’s voice.

My body couldn’t move.

She approached me as I stopped.

Slowly, with an emotionless face.

She walked past me and shut the door of the dormitory behind me.

Bang-!

When the sound stopped leaking out, he revealed his true color.

“I’ve been waiting for you, Damian. It’s just the two of us.”

Sug-

Nadia ran her finger up my chin.

“Together with us. Shall I tell you the truth?”

Because there is no one to interfere.

‘The last time I resigned… Was it to create a situation where the two of us could be alone… ‘

Nadia.

You have all your thoughts.

“There’s no one to help you anymore. You’d better know. Stay calm.”

At Nadia’s threat, I had no choice but to nod her head.

Still.

‘The thing I don’t have to worry about is people’s eyes. Neither do I.’

I didn’t mean to be easily defeated like last time.
