I'm a Villainess but So Popular Chapter 107

Episode 107

After a very peaceful breakfast, I went to the library to find the material and met Cassius on my way out.

Cassius naturally came next to me and started walking, and we walked together in the hallway in front of the library.

“Yerine, by what time is the meeting?”

“Well, at nine o’clock.”

It was a little late because this meeting was not a regular meeting.

When I went to the ceremony of appointment of the Housekeepers, it was the earliest at seven o’clock, and the meeting continued from eight o’clock.

“Oh, then you can come with me.”

“What time does Cassius have to be there?”

“I just have to go before the afternoon, but I personally have a personal business first, so I have to arrive a little earlier than the appointment time.”

“I see.”

Walking down the hall with two books in my arms, I gave a calm answer.

“By the way, were you really going with me?”

“Don’t you think that’s a good idea? I get so bored when I go alone.”

“Oh……..”

To be honest, I had nothing to say because I was asleep in the carriage every time I went to Noble State Field.

“Well, that’s true.”

I couldn’t bring myself to say that I was sleeping every time I went.

“But isn’t there some distance between the Noble State Field and the Imperial Palace?”

“Well, we can break up at the midway point. There are many carriages on the palace site, so it doesn’t matter.”

“Really?”

Seeing how active he answered, it was clear that he really wanted to go with me.

Sure enough, Cassius began to appeal to me with pathetic eyes like a dog in the rain.

“Yerine, can’t we?”

“……….”

“If Yerine doesn’t like it, I can’t help it, but….”

Where on earth did you learn to look like that?

‘If you look at me like that, I can’t help but do you a favour.’

I grumbled and sighed.

“Okay, let’s go together, so stop making that face.”

“Oh, thank you so much, Yerine, I really like it.”

Cassius replied with a smile on his face as bright as the sun.

‘The laughter of the male lead is very deadly.’

I thought, holding my heart without realizing it.

‘Sorry, Erica.’

I remember Erica, who showed her jealousy that she would write her absence notice in the morning which poked a corner of my heart, warmed by Cassius’ smile.

As expected, I vow to leave tomorrow morning, unnoticeable.

“But it’s going to be a little early. Are you okay?”

“Yes, I don’t care.”

“Then let’s do that. As Cassius said, we can break up at the midway of the Noble State Field and the Imperial Palace.”

“Yes, or I could take you to Noble State Field. I have that much time left.”

But I shook my head and rejected Cassius’ offer.

“No, you don’t have to.”

“It’s all right, Yerine.”

“I heard the Imperial family members usually don’t come to the Noble State Field. I don’t think it would be good for Cassius to go there too often.”

Cassius looked disappointed when he heard me.

“I understand. I should do that too, but I’m just a little concerned.”

“What’s bothering you?”

Then Cassius answered, momentarily, shining sharply on the gold.

“I mean my brother.”

“Ah.”

After hearing that, I understood why Cassius was so sensitive.

“But if you got a call from the palace, wouldn’t the Crown Prince also go? I don’t think he would come to Noble State Field.”

“No, my brother would still stop by, even if he’s making everyone waiting.”

“No way.”

I smiled and shook my head.

“And I’ve rejected his offer, but now I know. I don’t want to be a wizard under the Crown Prince’s direct control.”

In fact, I haven’t seen Iker since the last time Cassius took me out.

Even though there have been several more rounds of meetings since then.

‘By the way, there’s a royal summons and a family meeting on the same day.’

Come to think of it, it seems that Cassius never went back with an excuse saying there was a call from the palace.

‘Casius said he was going to investigate monsters in the imperial family.’

Perhaps there was a related data between the imperial investigation and the special investigation committee’s investigation.

Maybe that’s why Cassius and I were called in at the same time.

‘But I don’t want to ask him anything.’

I thought as I glanced into Cassius, walking slowly at my own pace.

From the standpoint of becoming a Housekeeper, it seemed a little problematic to meddle in imperial affairs.

And even if I don’t have to ask Cassius, I’ll find out if important information is revealed through the special committee.

‘I don’t think I should ask now.’

As soon as I made the decision, Cassius pressed my head and asked.

“Yerine, do you have something to say?”

“Oh? No.”

I replied with a casual smile.

“It’s nothing.

***

I heard thunder.

It was raining and windy.

Again, it seemed like a dream.

As the view brightened, a familiar face was seen.

A man with beautiful purple eyes.

It was the Duke of Spade.

“Yerine, ugh, hold on, this father will save you……!”

I was in his arms and my body was very small.

I felt like a baby.

As soon as I realized it, I felt a burning pain in my left eye.

My eyes hurt so much.

But when I opened my mouth, instead of the sound of words, there was only the cry of a tearful baby.

But it hurt so much that I couldn’t stop screaming.

Even if tears and snot flowed into my mouth, I couldn’t stop.

“Yerine…!”

The man’s handsome face was ruined by tears and rain.

His hair also clung weakly to his forehead.

“Honey, what do we do, if we go on like this, Yerine, heuk…….”

I could hear the voice of the Duchess of Spade, weeping from the side.

When I couldn’t overcome the pain and opened my mouth, I felt the taste of iron in my mouth.

Its blood.

“You’re in danger, so just wait here, there’s a village over this hill.”

The Duke hugged me tightly and shoved his wife back.

“I’m coming with you, honey!”

“No, there’s a beast in the forest. You go in.”

“How can I stay still when I might never see my daughter again!”

The Duchess cried.

Just listening to her gruesome cries made my heartbreak.

But I couldn’t care less about her.

Because the pain in my left eye was too severe.

“Duke, Madam, this is dangerous! I’ll call the doctor, please”

“Be away! It would be too late when the doctor comes!”

Although the vassals blocked the Duke, the Duke was reckless.

He just hugged me and moved on.

“Princess!”

The Duke clenched his teeth and began to walk at a faster pace.

Rainy mountains will be horribly slippery and dark.

He pushed himself into the entrance to the forest, unleashing fire magic in one hand.

“Stop.”

As soon as the Duke tried to enter the forest, a familiar woman’s voice rang out.

The duke stopped there and looked around as if to find the source of the voice.

But when the owner of the voice was not seen, he thought he was mistaken and tried to move forward with a shield.

Unlike him, in his arms, I could see the owner of a voice sitting on a high branch.

Although it was blurry because I only see her with just one eye.

“Stop it.”

The Duke stopped again at the voice he heard again.

The white woman sitting on a branch jumped gently off the branch when the Duke found her.

Landing lightly in front of the Duke, she had snow-white hair and skin.

“What do you want?”

The Duke held me tighter in his arms and was on alert.

The woman who stared at him shook her head.

“I don’t want anything. I have already received something.”

“What?”

As if he didn’t understand the woman’s words, the Duke didn’t care about questioning the woman.

The woman spoke in a determined voice.

“This forest is dangerous. You can’t go in. No matter how skilful a wizard you are, it’s hard to get through while you’re holding your daughter.”

I felt a strange atmosphere from the woman who said so.

It felt like something else, not a person.

“Getaway. My daughter is in danger now. I have to go even if my arms and legs get ripped off by the beast.”

“Honey!”

At that time, I heard the voice of the Duchess who followed the duke.

“Princess!”

And the voices of the vassals.

Running toward the Duke, the Duchess asked in a trembling voice, wary.

“Honey, this woman…….”

I could see a woman with no expression smiling small through the blanket that covered me over.

And suddenly, she bowed politely toward the Duchess.

The vassals who saw it began to buzz and the Duchess was restless because she couldn’t understand the situation.

“Who are you………?”

The woman just smiled still.

The Duchess did not answer what the Duchess said.

“Well, my daughter is very sick right now! Get out of the way quickly.”

“I know.”

Then the woman slowly approached the Duke.

The Duke instinctively embraced me and kept me out of the reach of the woman, but the woman spoke in a soft voice.

“I won’t hurt you.”

And as her hair got close enough to touch through the blanket, she said.

“I’ll help you.”

Then, the Duchess murmured in a trembling voice.

“You……….don’t tell me…….”

The woman turned to the Duchess for a moment and smiled a bright smile that had never been shown before.

And she made eye contact with me.

“Hello.”

The woman’s long fingers touched my cheek.

It wasn’t cold, it wasn’t hot.

“She’s a lovely kid.”

It was certain.

It was the woman in the dream.

The woman who asked me to call her if I had any trouble.

[Sorry, this is the only way I can do it]]

I could hear the woman’s voice in my head.

In the dream, the woman who had always covered one of her eyes with her hair was completely revealing her eyes.

Her eyes glowed red with blood.

***

“Huh.”

I was so surprised that I got up from the bed as soon as I opened my eyes.

My eyes, reflected in the mirror across the room, had a red glow as usual.
