Now, I know, Viola. Your secret.
Hickson said.
My secret?
Hearing his words, Han Arin felt cold sweats running through her back.
A secret.
Dont tell he realized that I am a transmigrator?!
Youre born with rcenary skills.
Saying so, he nodded to himself. Hickson concluded his words, Well, with that much insight, the art of you moving a persons mind is considerable.
Perhaps that is a natural area. Isnt everyone born to be a little murderous?
I dont think so
In any way, Viola is an unusual kid.
Thats why you approached , hiding your true self. You pretended to be a young child looking for help.
What do I really look like, then?
The image of the iron-blooded princess at the welcoming dinner?
Iron-blooded princess?
Viola seed to have heard that before. Rumor has it that the adopted princess has iron blood in her body. Rumor also has it that the adopted daughter, who is more Verratoux than anyone else, has been adopted in the family.
I guess there are real rumors going around
Even though Viola wanted to correct the misunderstanding, she couldnt. That fact that it wasnt a stigma, is falsified.
Yes, iron-blooded princess, a little one that is very ferocious.
Viola asked back brazenly.
So, you dont like it?
No, what? Who said I didnt like you? Its just you are just too cute, way too cute.
Xenon flinched at the word.
Lord Hickson did he notice as well?
It felt as if soone had revealed his secret that he only wanted to keep to himself, but he didnt express it.
anwhile, Tundra peered up. He just wants her to look at him though she didnt even give him a glance. Right now, Viola had her own situation, but Tundra didnt know it.
Please look at .
At that thought, he kept staring with eagerness. His masters eyes lit up.
Viola also read Tundras eyes.
Stop staring at !
Please look at . I beg you
Tundra looked like a little puppy. Still, she couldnt stare at him because the real Viola might co out and take control of her body instead.
Vixen, who had been silently observing the situation until now, read the strange aura. She wasnt making any eye contact with Tundra. Though he doesnt understand why, that makes him feel a little better.
Hehe.
He couldnt hide his feelings. Vixen smiled, scratching his cheek lightly.
Then, Viola suddenly glanced at him and said, Brother, can I talk to you for a second?
and you? The two of us?
Just the two of us.
Just us two.
Us. two.
Vixens eyes shine excitedly at the thought.
Uh, yeah, two of us?
Without him, too?
Yes.
By now, Vixens mouth was caught pulled up to his ear. Tundras gaze beca more severe as she was very conscious about it.
Lets go! And talk! Just the two of us!
Viola, who was already leading the way, did not see Vixens big smile.
Violas room.
Vixen sat on the chair. He put his arms between his thighs and pulled his body forward. It seems that he is looking forward to hearing her words.
What are we going to talk about?
I saw your eyes fixated on my dog earlier.
In the novel, it was also ntioned.
[ Ill kill you. ]
[ Ill kill you, too ]
She had already read that these kinds of hot-blooded eye contacts were exchanged. On Violas side, it is complicated. Fortunately, she had learned how to handle Vixen with her tactics.
I know why you lost in the duel earlier.
I didnt lose, its a draw!
You lost.
If there are no unusual variables, Vixen should have won.
But, it was a draw
That ant that he was defeated. He had a draw for his superior performance.
No! It is definitely a draw!
Listening to his protests, Viola sighed.
Obviously, a child is a child. Im going to solve it and explain it.
Brother is a lot better. Right?
Yes, of course! Its , after all.
Vixen is as condescending as he could be. The boy straightened his shoulders and raised his nose.
No, its not This is not a complint!
Even though if its a draw, it ans you lose. The stronger person got into a tie with the weaker person.
Not losing, he still denied vigorously.
Still, the result is a tie.
She eventually frowned.
Thats not cool.
Huh?
Vixens body flinched.
The killer was so surprised at her words that he almost lost a sense of balance and almost rolled off the chair. Seeing his reaction, Viola thought it might be a big ntal shock.
After a long mont of silence, Vixen made his own reasonable reasoning.
Is it because I lost?
No.
In fact, Viola didnt care who won.
That fact didnt matter to him in the slightest. For her, just winning doesnt make it cooler. She prefers characters who dont win and dont take risks.
She opened her mouth again.
If youre Verratoux, shouldnt you be making a point about what happened to you but rather think about further developnt based on the results? Thats being reasonable.
Thatthat
Brother lost your composure at the mont, and your movents got too big. Thats why you have allowed the much weaker Tundra to attack you. Weak Tundra realized his only weakness and found an opportunity. He did well.
Han Arin, the true reader, had a quick insight into Vixens psychology. As the older brother, he thought that he should be strong!
Im strong!
It seed like he wanted to strongly insist on this.
And when the fight was over, brother kept glaring at Tundra.
Yes, I an, it was a draw. But, youre only at Tundra.
Only at him?
Never mind. I wont tell you.
It was a draw, but she only complinted the dog, and she didnt give much attention to him. And, she only cared about him.
The eight-year-old Vixen is grumpy for nothing.
Thats not cool.
What?
Youre a Verratoux.
By now, Viola has learned a lot about how to handle Vixen.
Besides, Tundra is just my dog, right?
Yes.
Verratoux must always be strong. Am I wrong?
You are not wrong.
I felt it when I saw father at the welco dinner. Father is relaxed. When I looked at father, I realized that it is the relaxation of the strong.
With everything she said, Vixen is at a loss for words.
Everything Viola said is correct.
If youre a strong man, you should be able to relax and be calm. Thats proof that youre not yet a strong man.
.
I want my brother to be strong.
Vixen gulped his saliva.
Sohow, he couldnt deny anything she had said.
So, dont expose yourself to my dog like that.
Tundra needs to grow safely and well. That ans in the anti, until then, Vixen should not seriously injure or kill him.
So, please! Help the male lead grow up well!
Thats how Verratoux is. Be a strong brother.
Vixen shook his head with a throb, but in reality, he felt good. Couldnt hide his feelings anymore, he gazed at Viola again.
Hes just a dog, and Im an older brother, right?
It feels like the focus is a little bit off.
It isnt wrong, so she agreed to it.
Yes.
Well, its kind of weird for to really deal with a guy who acts like a dog, right? Im a hell of a Verratoux after all.
Viola nodded to his words.
Then, will you not keep your dignity and spare the weak?
Would that be cool? Vixens eyes contained strange expectations once again.
There was no such content in the original novel.
There, Vixen and Viola grew into rivals as they showed equal growth speed at the beginning of the book. However, now, she could feel it herself. Strangely, it doesnt feel like they are rivals at all.
It is a strange feeling.
For so reason, Vixen keeps on obsessing over coolness. So, even though it wasnt in the original, it is still good for her anyway. Talking about that, now that shes swung a lot of sticks, its ti to give him a carrot.
Itll be cool..
Hehe. Does Viola want Vixen to be cool?
All I want is just to sleep well and dont follow with a knife.
Well, she couldnt say that, though.
Thinking so, she just nodded her head helplessly. Then, Vixen smiled more brightly.
You need to be cool. To do so, I felt I had to find so ways to relax.
There was nothing wrong with Violas words.
As expected, I dont want to kill the dog.
He thought hed let the dog off the hook even if it ca at him hard. Hence, he decided not to kill the dog.
After a while, eventually, Vixen returned to his room on his own.
Lulu~As he was leaving, his humming was heard over the door to Violas room. She tilted her head and leaned at the chair exhaustedly.
Is this going to be okay?
Overall, she was quite certain it would be going well. Most of it seems to be going well as intended, but she could feel sothing strangely out of place.
Its just my feeling, isnt it?
Its been a few days since that day.
Viola had been waiting for one person every day. In the novel, the exact date is not ntioned, but it should only be a few days later
Soon
Its ti for Hera to co, and its ti for the next chapter of eting Hera to start.
Just as she buttoned up properly on her first encounter with Duke Heron, Viola has to fasten the buttons properly, even at the first eting with Hera as well. It was because she wanted to live a different life from the original Viola.
Its going to be a really important eting.
Few days passed once again.
What is it?
Its been two weeks later, but Hera has yet to show up.
Why isnt she showing up? Sothing seed to have changed? As ti was ticking away, Viola felt nervous for no reason.
Dont let too much ti pass
The original content should not be changed too much. Because knowledge is power, she can change things only if she knows.
And so, she decided.
Xenon, send this note to Sister Hera.
It said, just like a thirsty man digs a well. If Hera doesnt co first, then she would just throw the hook first instead. This matter is too significant to turn a blind eye to.
What is it about?
Im just trying to be friendly.
Hearing so, he took the note and asked, Shall I deliver it now?
Yeah.
The next day.
Knock, knock.
Finally, she could hear a knock from outside the door.
Here she cos!
Viola had a hunch it was Hera. A faint sound of a man could be heard, presumably Heras butler.
Princess Hera is waiting. Do you mind if we co in?
Xenon asked. Do you want to open it?
Yes.
The door slowly opened, and Viola greeted the guest.
Co on in, sister.
Viola felt like hearing voices in her ears.
Kaching!Shes a rich kid.
Viola smiled brightly. It was the brightest since she possessed here.
And so, the butler pushed Heras wheelchair.
Entering the room, she could see Hera, who was wearing a modest blue dress. Her silver hair was so shiny, and it matched well with her pale skin. Sitting in a wheelchair, she arrived right in front of Viola.
Butler, please go outside.
Understood.
Viola, knowing what she ant, said quickly, too. She was more tactful than ever.
Xenon, go out, too. I want to talk to my sister alone.
Okay, shall we prepare so refreshnts?
I want strawberry ade!
Although that was what she wanted to say, Viola held the thought in.
Do you want so refreshnts, sister?
This is all right for .
After Heras words, she replied back to Xenon quickly as well.
Im good, too.
And so, both butlers left the room.
She decided not to go against the murderer brothers plan, but she also decided to not go against the rich older sisters plan.
Hera and Viola.
Only the two of them remained here. There is a strange silence between the two, and the first person to open their mouth is Hera.
For what reason did you insult ?
