Villainous Husband, the One You’re Obsessed With is Over There Chapter 21.1

────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────

I soon found out

The drink, which was passed over without leaving a single drop, simred in my stomach for a while. Then, the hot energy spread through my fingertips and toes. The voices of the noisy nobles resounded from afar suddenly beca close and clear.

Unexpectedly, the world brightened up as if my eyes were absorbing more light.

It did not happen to the extent of just drinking alcohol. The alcohol that Raniero gave was definitely mixed with drugs though I did not know what drug it was. He did not tell , nor was I in a situation to ask the Emperor's physician or royal physician.

"Ah…"

I was feeling nauseated all of a sudden so I leaned on the table and hung my back. However, the only thing in my stomach was the fruit I ate a little at dawn and a glass of alcohol a while ago, so nothing ca out.

"Do this."

Raniero grabbed my shoulder and helped lean against the backrest, whispering.

"Be patient. You… soon everything will look different."

My whole body was heavy.

Raniero's voice seed to co from above the clouds or from inside my body. My movents were slowed down, and even holding a fork and knife was strenuous. At that mont, I could feel a strange feeling when I glanced down at the shiny tableware as I breathed in a sweet scent.

Ah, these were originally…

…Was it dull?

It did not look dangerous at all.

anwhile, the nobles of Actilus, who seed to be in another world with a transparent wall before, seed to be right next to instantly. A woman was yelling at her own husband derisively. The joke was so funny that I burst into laughter.

I burst out laughing so much that the commotion in front of stopped.

They all stared at at once. Still, I smiled with a puzzled face.

Why are they stopping?

Not understanding, I asked.

"What are you doing, not enjoying yourself?"

Raniero, who heard , laughed and opened his mouth.

"Haha. Can't you hear the Empress?"

I clenched my knife with a smile.

At the sa ti, my appetite suddenly increased. I lifted my heavy arm, cut the at before putting it in my mouth.

Unlike the roast beef that was slaughtered earlier, it was a dish that was properly flavored and seasoned. It was delicious. The subtle flavors felt more colorful and prudent than usual. Other tis, it would have felt a little hot, but right now, it was just right.

At first, I was nervous because my body was not moving properly, though I ate diligently. Co to think of it, it was no longer hot even in these layered robes.

When I ca to my senses, I found that the plate was empty.

Oh, is it ti to get up…?

However, my body was too heavy. I could not stand up properly and stumbled. The maids hurriedly ran to grab , but Raniero gestured to them to stop. The next mont, he held in his arms.

Consciousness faded in and out, again and again. At so point, I stopped thinking about the future. All that mattered was the present mont and the very next mont. It seed as if there would never be any danger to .

As I closed my eyes for a mont and then opened them, and the shadow was slightly longer. My robe was removed, and I was changed into a hunting suit before I knew it. Like when I drank too much, the mory in my head was like a film, cutting into pieces.

Although I think I was supposed to go out to the Capital and distribute food to the people, I had no mory of that. Wearing hunting clothes ant the event was over.

But, I did not have any doubts.

'Oh, I wonder if the ti has co,' that was all I had in my head.

While putting a bow on my back and two daggers around my waist, Cisen put leather armor on my upper body. Duchess Nerma approached the two of us who were preparing.

"It's a gift from His Majesty the Emperor."

It was a small vial of black powder. There was a small label on the outside.

"…Soleols."

"It's a purified poison extracted from the Soleols poison frog."

Answering , Duchess Nerma bowed her back deeply and continued, "His Majesty has said that Your Majesty would know how to use it."

I blinked and shook the vial slightly. This morning, I regretted not preparing poison for s*icide.

I grinned.

In a flash, I thought I knew what to do with this.

My body felt incredibly light.

In addition, the field of view was wide, and everything was clear. The sound of birds flapping their wings could even be heard in the distance. As if it were a lie that I was nervous and afraid of hunting until this morning, my body was not rigid and my spirit was fresh.

Outside the fence of the hunting grounds stood spectators of nobles. Regardless, the hunting grounds were full and covered by trees so it would be difficult for them to see interesting scenes.

Yes, 'interesting scene'!

I walked leisurely.

"Your Majesty the Empress enters!"
