The Villainess’ Beloved Plan: The Struggles to Avoid a Doomed End - Chapter 55

Carnelia Saladora let out a melancholy sigh as she brushed her hair in front of the mirror.

Carnelia’s reflection in the mirror showed a pretty beauty with flaxen hair and blue eyes. Her eyes, which tend to droop, have a luster that makes her look more mature than her eighteen years. Her plump lips are as fresh as rose petals.

“Even though I came all the way here, where did Cyril-sama go?”

Carnelia, annoyed with Cyril’s reluctance to give his agreement to their engagement proposal, had traveled all the way to Verhund to get “this” from him, but when Carnelia finally arrived at the castle, she could not find Cyril anywhere.

When Carnelia arrived at the castle, she found that Cyril was nowhere to be found. “Even if I told His Majesty, he would only say that this matter was in Cyril’s hands.

What in the world does Master Cyril care about me? What do you think, Sarra?”

Carnelia looked back at Sarra, her maid of honor who was making tea for her.

Sarra, who has served Carnelia for many years, stopped making the tea and gave her the answer she wanted to hear “It’s not possible that he won’t like you, Lady Carnelia, you are a beautiful and perfect princess.”

Carnelia nodded in agreement, her mood improving.

“I have never met anyone as perfect as I am. I am the most intelligent, the most graceful, and above all, the most beautiful princess in Saladora.”

“You are absolutely right, Lady Carnelia.”

“Thank you, my dear Sarra. I feel much more confident now. I am sure that Cyril will give me a good answer because I am the most perfect and beautiful princess. And I am sure that I and Cyril will be known throughout the world as the most beautiful couple in the world!”

“That’s Wonderful, Lady Carnelia!”

Carnelia, who was assisted by the maid’s hand, stood up and laughed loudly, “Ohohohohoho”

The guard standing guard outside sighed softly as the room became noisier and noisier.

Cyril felt a chill and involuntarily looked behind him.

He was in a carriage.

When he looked back, all he could see was the cloth-covered walls of the carriage, and nothing else.

“What’s wrong?”

D’Artagno asked suspiciously, and Cyril shook his head, “No. …… It must have been my imagination, as I thought I heard Carnelia’s voice.”

Sophia and her friends(captors) were now traveling by carriage to Azaruth, the royal capital of Verhund.

It takes about two days from the town of Rivadel to the royal capital by carriage. While traveling, Sophia was being told by Cyril about the plan.

‘Really, I can’t believe it is Carnelia. ……’

Sophia sighs secretly.

Sophia would prefer not to get involved, but there is no way for her to escape and, moreover, Cyril revealed himself as the first prince of Verhund as soon as he got into the carriage. There was no way he would let go of Sophia, who knew Cyril was the prince, before he could carry out his plan.

“Look, Carnelia is a nasty woman who I can only assume has a few screws in her head.”

‘Yeah, right I know…’

Carnelia in the game was also a character with a lot of screwed up ideas. She is not a bad person, but she is a pain in the ass to get involved with.

Carnelia is a narcissist who loves beautiful things and thinks she is the most beautiful person in the country. She wants to marry Cyril because he is a beautiful and perfect prince – Carnelia only knows Cyril, who disguise his main character. The perfect Carnelia wants to marry the perfect Prince Cyril and have a “perfect marriage”. What a crazy thought process.

“To shut her up, we have to play the perfect lovers. Anyway It would be easy to fool her if she were a real idiot, but she is an annoying woman who is stupid but intelligent.”

“…… perfect lovers?”

“Yes. The first thing you need to know is what you know about me, and of course, the details of where we met, where we had our first date, and what we did.”

‘I see. The point is that it is necessary to elaborate the perfect lover information carefully. By the way, there is no problem with Cyril’s information. Of course I know his birthday and favorite food. Perks of been a gamer’

“First of all, call me Cyril. No honorifics. You must be as friendly as possible. Understand?”

“Understood.”

“………”

“Okay, Cyril.”

Cyril nodded his head in satisfaction.

“There is no way you can say you are a married woman. Remember, you are D’Artagno’s sister. D’Artagno is–”

“I am now the late Duke of Feldrad. You are his sister. I will call you Sophia Feldrad McKeel. She is sixteen years old. Cyril was in love with my sister, who had been separated from me, and we had just recently met again. If you decide to go back to your husband, I can just say, “I thought she was my sister because she looked like me. We can pretend that Cyril and you are no longer together.”

Sophia was surprised.

‘D’Artagno was indeed a member of the royal family of the fallen Ferdorado nation and would have been a duke had the Ferdorado nation continued to exist. I wonder if it is okay to talk about it so easily.’

He said, “So, don’t use honorifics for me either. Just call me “Oniisama”.

“Oniisama ……?”

“Yes, that’s fine.”

Sophia’s head began to hurt.

She know these two are probably serious, but for some reason she felt like asking, “Are you kidding me?” ‘

‘I wonder if such a lax plan will really work. ……?’

Even in the game, Carnelia didn’t back down. On the contrary, she tried to break up Cyril and the heroine, Keira, in every possible way.

Hopefully, Carnelia in this world is more “sane” than in the game world, but from what Cyril says, that wish is probably hopeless.

Sophia couldn’t help but curse her own bad luck in getting involved in something so troublesome, and pray that this time it would end without any trouble.
