Chapter 183
The brilliant sun shines down on . Sweat is slowly coming out of my forehead.
…I wonder if any young lady has ever been carried to the castle in a cage with chapped lips. Maybe I’m the first? Oh, I feel great. I’m so happy that I can forget about this heat and thirst I’m now suffering from.
“Alicia-sama, we are almost at the castle.” (Royal Guard)
A nearby guard hushed in a soft tone.
I’ve never seen a guard speak so softly to a criminal in a cage before. You should have been harder on . That’s what makes a villainess. Duke-sama did sothing a little unnecessary, too.
If the guards were walking around cursing at , everyone in town would think I had done sothing wrong. If that happened, I could have beco regcognized as a villainess by the people!
Why did I always want to be a villainess? Such a question suddenly crossed my mind. Did I really want to be a villainess just to be abused by everyone? Oh, I can’t think well in the heat.
“Hey, why is that princess in there? ” (Random Townsfolk)
“She’s not a princess, you know. Besides, the reason she’s in there is because…” (Random Townsfolk)
A conversation between a parent and a child was suddenly overheard. The mother muffled her words at the little girl’s question.
“There’s a beautiful woman in the cage.” (Random Townsfolk Child)
“Oh, is that Alicia-sama from the Williams family?” (Random Townsfolk)
“Those lustrous eyes, I wish I could stare into those eyes.” (Random Townsfolk)
“What the hell did she do? ” (Random Townsfolk)
“I heard a rumor that Alicia-sama is behaving very poorly at school.” (Random Townsfolk)
“Oh, I heard that too. I’ve heard that she’s bullying Liz-chan.” (Random Townsfolk)
Now! Guards! Abuse ! Even if I wished in my heart that I could do that, it wouldn’t happen because of Duke-sama before he lost his mory. Besides, I’d sound like a masochist if I said that line out loud.
Liz-san grew up in this town, didn’t she? Everyone is on Liz-san’s side. They don’t have the slightest right to defend .
“I wish I could also be in that cage.” (Random Townsfolk Child)
I heard a young girl’s voice clearly and distinctly in the midst of the noise. I hurriedly looked in the direction where I heard the voice.
“Hey, what are you talking about? We’re leaving now.” (Random Townsfolk Mother)
The little girl later protested in panic, and her mother was trying to pull her by the arm to take her away. Still, the girl’s eyes glisten as she stares at .
“Because she’s very charming.” (Random Townsfolk Child)
The girl squealed to her mother in a high-pitched voice.
…Charming? Are you saying that a caged Lady is charming…? Ah, yes, that’s what I’ve been longing for as a villainess. A dignified and charming villainess with a strong and scary beauty, but with a core of sadness and loneliness. That’s what I’ve wanted to be since I was a little girl. I don’t know why I was so lost a mont earlier. It must have been due to the heat.
That girl said I was attractive, didn’t she? Does that an I’m still attractive even when I’m in a cage? I’ve finally reached that level of villainy. It’s a wonderful accomplishnt.
“Please don’t be offended by the voices of the townspeople.” (Royal Guard)
The guard turned to and whispered quietly in a voice that no one could hear.
Offended? Rather the opposite. I’m a villainess. I don’t care if soone says bad things about .
“There’s nothing wrong with that. It’s wonderful that they can express their opinions without hesitation.” (Alicia)
I said and straightened my back. As a villainess, you have to stand tall at all tis! I was exhausted from the heat, but now I’m in the spotlight, right? I cannot show a weak appearance. I want to be recognized as “The villainess who has never been seen in a weakened state”.
With this in mind, I kept my posture and expression unchanged, no matter how thirsty or hot I was, until I reached the castle.
Righteous Flower of Evil:
She danced around that little question we’ve all been wondering about. What exactly is with her fascination for becoming a villainess? And yet we were thwarted again TT Stupid heat!!!!
On a side note, do we think the little girl is going to beco a significant character at so point?? I don’t think any of us would object to having a cute fangirl for our cute Alicia, right? Or better yet, a cute, diabolical fangirl!!!
