I Am The Last Villainess He Has To Kill

Chapter 110 – Affection Is The Easiest To Use

“Bella, can you sleep here tonight?”

Those words caught her attention.

Look at him. He was getting more gutsy. Of course, she thought that her greed, enough to twist the original story, caused this. She had a dream of kissing Kiehl almost every day, so she had nothing to say. Wasn’t the pace too fast?

‘Still, I don’t think I coveted a teenager…’

Rather, Shuria’s words came to mind.

— “Affection is the easiest to use.”

Bella held Kiehl’s cheeks with one hand and made his lips pop like a fish.

‘He says he loves me, so he’s trying to tame me?’

She opened her eyes narrowly and glared at him, then answered coldly.

“No.”

Kiehl looked a little disappointed.

“…You can sleep as a cat, right?”

Bella put a big smile on her lips.

“It won’t work even if you pretend to be cute.”

Saying so, he kissed him lightly on the lips that he had pursed out cutely. She said he was cute, so she’d have to pay the full fee.

Then, Bella gently pushed him away.

“Then I’ll get goi—”

“Wait a little while longer. Didn’t you come to see me?”

“Oh, right!”

She almost forgot what she was here for.

“Where is the report from that time?”

“….”

“For some reason, I feel like I can quickly find the cause.”

“Did you come here to check it out?”

“Yes.”

Kiehl glanced at her and stood up. How could she say that she came because she wanted to see him, even with empty words? It was because he was always interacting with the Fire Kingdom.

It was always on his desk.

“Here.”

Bella naturally took her report and looked at it calmly.

Fire Kingdom was a place that existed only as a setting from the beginning. Nonetheless, it had an impact on the crown princess’ contest, so it may also be a change brought on by Bella’s involvement in the novel.

‘Hmm… it’s just a coincidence…’

The first time this accident happened was two hundred years ago.

After that, it was an accident that might happen once in ten years. However, in 1153, which was fourteen years ago, accidents occurred frequently, every few months.

‘It was when I first came out to the human world.’

And this incident has increased in frequency within the last few months, namely after she came back to the human world.

‘…Is my magical power affecting this world?’

Moreover, one thing was for certain, the magical energy she felt at the time of that explosion was similar to when she sometimes couldn’t control her strength. In the meanwhile, Kiehl stared at Bella as she fiddled with the papers.

“Thank you, I didn’t really think Bella would work right away.”

She sighed and laughed as she flipped through the papers.

“Why are you laughing?”

What was the reason for choosing her as the Crown Princess in such a hurry?

“Didn’t you make me sit here to pamper you?”

Kiehl moved slowly towards Bella, twitching his lips.

“What are you talking about?”

Then, he hugged her from behind.

“It’s not like that…”

As he rested his face on her shoulder, he confessed with sincerity, whispering in her ear in a small voice.

“I like Bella.”

“Yes. Me, too. Do you have any other documents other than this?”

“….”

Unfortunately, his small confession did not touch her heart. In the first place, Kiehl had said so much that the Crown Princess was in a public position, and as soon as she became the Crown Princess, there was a shower of things for her to do.

‘Well. I must have been chosen to share the work with him because he was having too hard of a time.’

Of course, she knew that he liked her, but she didn’t think that his heart would be the same size as her determination.

Kiehl was right behind her, watching her bewilderedly, but she didn’t notice at all.

Juan trudged through the corridors of the Imperial Palace. He had been here many times, but this road had never felt as long as today.

He had been looking for someone for so long.

— “Did I ask you to find me?”

He couldn’t give any answer to that.

‘What should I live for now?’

He could not even return to the Cruelle family because he knew Shuria would kill him somehow. Still, that didn’t mean he could roam the streets empty.

The place he eventually headed to was Rosanne’s room.

There, a good person who knew him as ‘Ian’ greeted him with worried eyes.

“Ian. Did you really go to His Highness?”

Rosanne crossed her hands.

“…Yes.”

“What did you say when you went there?”

Rosanne put her hand over her throbbing chest. She was worried that Kiehl or Bella might misunderstand because he said something strange.

“Miss is wrong.”

“…what?”

“You were just being played around. Lady Bella also had feelings for His Highness.”

Rosanne was confused when Juan suddenly said that.

“She turned all the arrows of jealousy on you, had a good image, and sat there already.”

Juan laughed miserably.

“They’re all in cahoots.”

“….”

“I’m saying it so that Miss would not be tricked further.”

As soon as Mayu heard what he said, she was indignant.

“I knew it would be like this. Miss, are you really going to be Lady Bella’s lady-in-waiting?”

“But Lady Bella…”

When Rosanne hesitated, Juan snorted.

Innocent girl.

He felt sorry for Rosanne, who was his lifesaver. But he didn’t know… that the most pitiful thing here was he himself.

Rosanne had been thinking about it since Juan left about the ‘Kiehl’ she had seen so far and about what he had made her do. She knew that he had been looking for someone for a long time, and she had always thought that it was Iwer so she didn’t know why he asked her to bring Bella’s things.

‘…That’s what he did because he fell in love with Lady Bella after all.’

It reminded her of the time long ago when Myu put a potion. At that time, like he was having a nightmare, Kiehl called a certain name while sweating.

‘Yes… It must have been Lady Bella.’

She didn’t even know that.

— “Bella says you and I are destined.”

He said so.

— “I hope one day you get the same back.”

At that time, it was not an illusion that Kiehl’s cold face was as if looking in a mirror.

‘What should I do…’

Rosanne was troubled in many ways. She was worried about what Juan would say to Kiehl because she didn’t want to be hated anymore.

However, what Juan said after returning was even more confusing.

“But Lady Bella…”

“It seems that the poor Miss believes in people even after being tricked like that.”

Was she really deceived? Rosanne shut her mouth for a moment, then shook her head.

“I have never been deceived.”

Looking at Juan, she sorted out her feelings by speaking.

“From the beginning, I came to help His Highness Kiehl.”

“….”

“I’ve never been greedy for the Crown Princess position.”

In the first place, she never asked for anything in return. It was just that her heart went there.

Meanwhile, Juan gazed earnestly into Rosanne’s eyes.

“I just wanted to give strength to the person I like.”

The purple eyes twinkled to match the light pink hair.

“And just because the two have feelings for each other, they have no obligation to tell me.”

So did Rosanne.

She noticed the feelings all around her, but she never stepped out and said she liked Kiehl. She had no obligation to tell.

Looking at Rosanne, Myu became solemn. The Miss, who she only thought was an immature person, in the blink of an eye, moved the hearts of others by thinking deeply.

“So, don’t come between us, Ian.”

Rosanne looked back at herself in the mirror, so she could run to tomorrow.

“I will continue to be Lady Bella’s lady-in-waiting.”

Juan snorted and stood up.

“…I see.”

Then, he quietly left the room.

He just said it because he was worried that this Miss, his lifesaver, would be fooled anymore.

‘I hope you live like a fool for the rest of your life.’

With a sharp tongue, he left the imperial palace in a short time though he didn’t look in the mirror.

An eagle that had lost its wings couldn’t fly to tomorrow and crawled on the ground.

As Bella took over all the work, Jenkins wrinkled his brow and shook his head.

“Miss, you can never do this alone. We need to check if the data that the person named Rohan gave us is also accurate.”

“…So what to do? Shall I think of magic to clone you?”

“Does it make sense?”

“Or split you in half and have you work at the same time. How about that?”

“Don’t speak so seriously. Because I’m scared.”

They couldn’t clone Jenkins.

“Have someone by your side to help you as soon as possible.”

“I guess so.”

“And are you really going to have Miss Rosanne as your lady-in-waiting?”

“She says she wants to stay in the Imperial Palace.”

“Really?”

Rosanne’s happy ending.

Bella didn’t really have high hopes for this theory either. If it’s not true, it will only increase her disappointment.

— “While working under Lady Bella, I want to find out what I want to do.”

So Bella thought that this was not her greed, but she was doing this for Rosanne.

Like an atonement.

There were several ladies-in-waiting, including Rosanne.

Rosanne’s personality didn’t change overnight, so it was difficult for her to adapt. So while Bella’s other ladies-in-waiting sorted out the relationship between their respective families and Bella, Rosanne was entrusted with what she could do alone.

To be in charge of Bella’s clothes. It was her job to prepare and put on the dress that would keep her dignity as the Crown Princess.

In fact, it was also what the ladies-in-waiting wanted to do the most because they could dress up the Crown Princess as they liked, just like dressing up a doll. Perhaps that was why, at first, some people objected to Rosanne taking on this position.

“No! That’s Pur’s thing!”

No, not people, but a bear.

These days, Pur’s eyes became more and more fierce, as if she was obsessed with the fun of choosing Bella’s clothes.

“…You pick up anything without thinking anyway.”

“No! How much Pur thinks about it!”

“Don’t lie. You are singing ‘Which one should I choose’ in your heart!”

“How did you know?”
