I Am The Villainess With A Maxed-Out Luck Stat - Chapter 124
Only Noblemtl
124. Sorry,
I pulled aggro to show you this.
‘The competition is taking longer than I thought.’
About three hours had passed.
My butt hurt from just sitting quietly in the stands.
A social gathering soon unfolded among the audience, who were tired of waiting.
The nobles were recreating a small social gathering, sharing gossip and small talk.
But the atmosphere on the Emperor and Lady Shiloh’s side was strange.
Shiloh, who had been laughing and chatting happily just a moment ago, let out a groan of pain.
“Lady Shiloh, are you okay?”
“I think I need to call the palace doctor.”
The maids hurried to the palace, and the emperor’s face became quite serious.
“Is there something wrong with your health?”
“You have been complaining of abdominal pain and nausea since dawn, and your symptoms seem to have gotten worse.”
One of the maids who was standing next to her said, and then Shiloh, who was sweating profusely, slid down from her chair.
“Shiloh!”
Shiloh’s dress was soaked with red blood.
When she started bleeding, the maids turned pale and covered their mouths.
“omg!”
“Lady Shiloh… …!”
The nobles nearby started to murmur, and the commotion soon spread to the far reaches of the stands.
As the people’s eyes gathered, the emperor nodded to his subjects.
“Lady Shiloh, I think you should go in first.”
“Your Majesty, please come with me.”
“what?”
The maids hurriedly tried to help her up, but Shiloh shook them off and clung to the emperor’s arm.
The hunting festival was still in full swing. Perwin would be in the arena. As the Emperor looked back and forth between the arena and the stands, Shiloh repeated his plea.
“Please, Your Majesty.”
“… … .”
The emperor sighed as if he had no choice and gave an order to his subject.
“Let me know as soon as the participants return.”
“Yes, Your Majesty.”
The emperor left the scene to his subjects and rose from his seat.
I was looking at the sight in a daze.
‘Sudden bleeding.’
This didn’t happen in the original.
The maids hurriedly followed Shiloh out of the stadium.
Among them was Evelyn, the daughter of the Marquis of Balton.
‘Evelyn wasn’t originally Shiloh’s maid.’
[It is said that the daughter of the Marquis of Balton has been selected as Lady Shiloh’s maid.]
[It is clear that His Majesty the Emperor intends to give strength to the Marquis.]
I remembered a story that Countess Gott once told me.
Small cracks were appearing in the original work, out of my reach.
“uh?”
As I quietly observed the place where the commotion had passed, something that had fallen under Shiloh’s seat caught my eye.
‘What is that?’
* * *
The small disturbance caused by Shiloh did not subside easily for a while.
A few of the courtiers who had come to handle the situation were moving around busily, and the nobles were looking at the empty seats and whispering.
At that time, even I, sitting near the Emperor and Empress, was receiving hot stares.
“Oh my. That young lady just now… … .”
“I guess I’ll go see Princess Roselia.”
There was someone who approached me and attracted everyone’s attention: Seraphine.
“I, Your Majesty.”
Seraphine spoke with difficulty and hesitantly. One cheek was still red and swollen.
“I think there was a misunderstanding earlier.”
She brought up the story we had just had, seemingly oblivious to Shiloh’s business.
It seems like he’s been suffering from that for a long time.
Seraphine bowed ninety degrees.
“I’m so sorry.”
“… … .”
What on earth are you sorry about?
It was a misunderstanding, and I was the one who slapped you unilaterally.
‘If I’m going to apologize, I should be the one to do it.’
Let’s open our mouths with that thought in mind―
“Where do you come from with such a shameless face?”
[Action restrictions are in effect for the villainess Roselia.]
The automatic translation function that says “Go away, PaXgo” has been activated.
“yes yes?”
Seraphine’s face turned red with shock at the sudden verbal abuse.
Damn, I guess I’d better keep my mouth shut.
‘We’ll talk later.’
In that sense, let’s desperately wave our hands―
“Why don’t you go away?”
The damn mouth spewed out harsh words again.
Seraphine ran to her seat with tears in her eyes.
“I’m sorry, Your Majesty. I’ll be going now.”
“Oh my. How pitiful.”
There was a clicking of tongues all around.
Yeah. Swear, swear.
I too feel like sewing this cursed mouth shut.
‘ha.’
The mood is gloomy, and the dark clouds are gathering over my head.
If this continues, it’s going to pour down all over again.
“uh?”
Thud, thud, thud.
As expected, raindrops began to fall one by one.
The raindrops that had been falling little by little gradually became larger.
‘The time has finally come.’
The beginning of rain was a kind of signal.
A signal flare announcing the occurrence of a romance event.
‘But the important male protagonist hasn’t returned.’
At that moment, a new mission window appeared in the air.
【SYSTEM: Mission! ‘Love Rides the Rain’】
[Rain pouring down out of nowhere!
As the bewildered audience hurriedly moved to their seats, an unexpected commotion broke out… … .

Swaaaaaaahh …
As the rain began to fall harder, the audience followed the attendants’ instructions and moved inside the stadium where shade was installed.
The young and energetic spirits had gone out to the hunting festival to show off their bravery, and most of the remaining spectators were women or older nobles.
Young ladies dressed in gorgeous dresses walked down the stairs with careful steps.
But at that time.
“Whoa!”
Kuung.
A loud noise echoed through the stadium, accompanied by a shrill scream.
“What’s going on?”
“It’s a monster! And it’s a high-level monster!”
“Why did a monster appear in the stands?”
The nobles who had been making a fuss were in panic as they identified the source of the disturbance.
“Koooooooo!”
A giant monster that looked like a loach was approaching the audience.
A foul, fishy smell emanated from the slippery skin.
Thud, thud, thud.
Every time the monster stepped foot, an earthquake occurred in the stadium.
“All hands, prepare your lines!”
The security guards guiding the audience stood up to the monsters.
“Thank goodness the guards will probably take care of it.”
But as the monster spit out its dark green venom, the thick armor and spear melted away helplessly.
The monster revealed its sharp fangs.
“Eww!”
The terrified guards threw down their weapons and fled.
As the nobles hurriedly walked forward, the duke’s knights followed on both sides of Roselia, escorting her.
“Your Majesty, please take refuge here!”
As she headed towards the evacuation route, she saw Seraphine floundering in front of her.
Her heels were stuck in the muddy ground and she was having trouble getting out.
“Get out of my way!”
“Whoa!”
She stumbled as she was struck by the fleeing men.
[Action restrictions are in effect for the villainess Roselia.]
“Eight!”
Roselia pushed Seraphine hard.
“Oh, Princess―”
Seraphine was so shocked that she couldn’t even scream.
The limp body fell to the ground in vain.
Her dress was a mess, soaked in mud.
Seraphine tried to get up quickly, but one leg dragged because she had twisted her ankle when she fell.
“Keeeeeek!”
At that time, a monster looking for prey discovered Seraphine.
Benefits-
As the monster spit out its venom, the iron fence and trees in the stadium melted away without a trace.
That was the power of a superior monster, and an uncontrolled monster at that.
Standing before a monster as big as a house, Seraphine looked as small as a toy.
Seraphine’s whole body trembled. Her legs lost their strength due to instinctive fear.
“Oh my god… … .”
People also turned their heads in despair, as if they foresaw the tragedy that was to unfold.
The monster opened its greedy mouth wide.
Seraphine squeezed her eyes shut.
She was swallowed up in a mouth as deep and dark as an abyss.
* * *
“Everyone, call the wizard right now!”
“Mobilize the remaining forces to the fullest extent possible… … .”
The remaining soldiers tried to control the situation later, but Seraphine had already been eaten by the monster.
The audience was shocked.
A voice was heard telling them to rescue the girl immediately, but it was drowned out by the screams of those running away in panic.
It was a time when people were running away like crazy.
Gulp, gulp.
The monster shuddered violently.
It was a gesture as if he was trying to vomit something out.
“Kkuuuuuk!”
At that moment, the monster’s mouth split open with a roar. The monster vomited out black blood.
“Over there, over there!”
Seraphine limped out of the monster’s mouth.
“Gasp, huh.”
She was breathing heavily and was holding a longsword in her hand.
It was a sword that was usually used during training at the Duke’s house.
She tore the demon’s jaws open and walked out on two feet.
A white film emanating from the necklace surrounded her, preventing the venom from reaching her.
“I came out alive from the mouth of a demon!”
“How could this happen… … .”
Profit.
As everyone looked on in horror, the monster that had been spitting out blood began to spurt out venom as if it was going crazy.
A flesh-melting poison attacked Seraphine, but―
“… … !”
This time, a translucent membrane spread from the necklace and enveloped her.
The monster’s attack disappeared without a trace as soon as it reached the barrier.
“Hey, have you stopped the poison just now?”
“What the heck is that necklace?”
Amidst the confusion of the people, the monster was preparing its second strike.
She adjusted her posture as she held the sword.
Arms that have become stronger, legs that stand firmly on the ground, and eyes filled with determination.
Seraphine looked at me, and I nodded silently.

It was time for the protagonist who had hidden his power to write a new story.
