I Am The Villainess With A Maxed-Out Luck Stat - Chapter 126



Only Noblemtl

126. Will you accept my heart?

Sunlight peeked through the clouds and fell on Roselia.

Cayenne tried to pick her up, but then stopped short.

Her thin skin showed fine blood vessels. My eyes were drawn to the strange contrast of white and blue.

It was so different from my arms, which were covered in ugly scars and wounds that wouldn’t heal.

My gaze was constantly drawn to the white and clean wrist that felt so foreign.

His gaze went up past her slender wrist and onto her forearm. Her shoulder hidden by the dress and her white nape slightly revealed… … .

My hesitant fingertips brushed soft skin.

Even though it was only for a moment, a burning sensation spread from the area where it touched.

He quickly looked away as the desire boiling up from the pit of his stomach fanned his impulses.

I wanted to gouge out my own eyes as I looked down at her with those blasphemous eyes.

It was a wicked desire.

Even though he is an opponent that I cannot even dare to look down on.

There has been a firm line between me and the noble lady since birth.

There is a clear boundary that he cannot cross.

All he can do is wait for Roselia’s will.

Cayenne looked around closely.

First, we had to move her to a safe place.

He picked her up carefully.

Just then a rustling sound was heard from the grass on the other side.

“… … !”

Cayenne reflexively prepared to attack.

Roselia was sleeping in my product.

Anyone who disturbs this momentary peace is ready to be killed at any time.

It was the moment when the condensed magical power in his hands was about to burst out.

【wãRNìNG!º □□ 를 seriously hindered the ìname ã□□】

“… … ?”

Again.

It seemed as if someone had intentionally blocked Cayenne’s power, and this time his mana was completely washed away.

He gathered mana once again, ignoring the system’s warnings.

【□□ Protection ¤.ã penalizes ‘Kaiê°’.】

Then, an incomprehensible red illusion appeared before his eyes.

“Ugh.”

At the same time, a sharp pain like an electric shock struck me and all the strength left my body.

The arm that had been supporting Roselia fell limply.

‘It won’t work… … .’

He tried to somehow throw himself to support Roselia, but his will was broken in vain under the system’s coercive power.

* * *

“Where am I?”

When I came to my senses again, I felt the moist grass on my back.

Clear sunlight shone overhead and the moisture-laden plants swayed in the breeze.

“… … It’s peaceful.”

Swaaaaaaahh …

I was lying on the grass and feeling the cool breeze, and it was funny how I had that feeling.

‘It’s not like it’s only been a day or two since I’ve been bullied.’

It was an unexpected teleportation, but even this kind of thing is surprising only once or twice.

It didn’t seem strange anymore because the system window would shake people up every now and then.

‘Still, I thought this episode went perfectly.’

The mission was judged successful and the reward was safely received.

You drew a big picture and now you suddenly teleport it like this? Does that make sense?

“ha.”

If I could, I’d grab him by the collar and shake him. But I’m just a weakling…

I raised my upper body with a jerk.

“I guess this is inside the stadium.”

The forest was full of lush trees.

It was similar to the scenery I saw when I entered the stadium by carriage in the morning.

‘What the heck, you even opened a system window as if something big is going to happen.’

There was no sign of life around.

I waited to see if someone would show up, but all I saw was a peaceful, if not boring, scene.

‘But there must be something.’

As I was looking around, something caught my eye.

“… … Is that blood?”

A long trail of blood stretched out in the distance.

The thin blood trail stretched beyond the bushes.

‘I have a bad feeling about this.’

Finding bloodstains by chance is something that cannot happen, at least not in this world.

I followed the blood trail and reached a cave.

“There are caves in places like this.”

I couldn’t see an inch ahead of me in the pitch-black interior. The dampness touched my skin.

The moment I took a cautious step inside, something caught my foot.

I unconsciously lowered my head to check and almost screamed without realizing it.

“Your Majesty?”

Inside the cave, Perwin was lying unconscious.

Cold sweat was soaking through the exposed mask.

He didn’t even seem to notice me coming in, only letting out shallow moans intermittently.

“majesty!”

I tried to shake him awake, but then stopped.

Red blood flowed from his abdomen. It was as if he had been deeply pierced by something sharp.

My heart sank.

“Your Majesty, are you alright?”

I quickly took out the healing magic scroll that I carried around like an emergency medicine.

But for some reason, even the magic scroll didn’t have much effect.

‘What should I do?’

After hesitating, I took out a clean handkerchief from my bosom and placed it on the wound.

Then she untied the long ribbon decoration that adorned her shoulders and tied the area covered with a handkerchief tightly.

It was a rather sloppy procedure, but fortunately the bleeding soon stopped.

His face, which had been distorted in pain, also became much more relaxed.

I sighed in relief and sank into my seat.

I decided to wait silently until Perwin came to his senses.

“… … .”

As I was quietly looking at him, one thought crossed my mind.

‘He really is handsome.’

Her sweaty blonde hair, long eyelashes, and straight nose were all unrealistically beautiful.

Although her complexion was pale and her lips were dry and chapped, even that gave her a decadent look.

‘It would be nice to see you just not open your mouth.’

The shell is perfect though.

The only regret was that he had one fatal flaw: his character.

At that moment, his closed eyelids slowly opened.

“Are you awake?”

Perwin blinked slowly.

My image was blurred in his blank eyes.

“Why is the princess here? Is this… a dream?”

His voice, though still subdued, was still hazy, as if he were lost in a dream.

“It’s not a dream.”

“then?”

“I don’t know either. Why am I here?”

After thinking about it for a moment, I told the truth.

Trying to come up with a plausible excuse will only increase your doubts.

Anyway, it seemed like Perwin didn’t have the energy to question me.

“I’m glad I found you, Your Highness.”

“Yeah, Yeon-yu, thanks to you, I survived anyway.”

Perwin also nodded obediently.

He frowned as he tried to raise his upper body.

“You shouldn’t move too forcefully. I did take care of it quickly, but… … .”

The flimsy piece of cloth wrapped around his abdomen was hardly even a first aid measure.

He looked down at the wound and seemed somewhat surprised.

“The princess did this?”

“I tried to use a healing magic scroll, but it didn’t work very well. Since magic doesn’t work, I have to do it by hand.”

Perwin nodded at my words.

“According to the rules of the game, magic is not allowed in this area.”

“ah.”

There was a reason for that.

I nodded, and something heavy touched my knee.

“Can I wait a moment?”

It was Perwin’s head.

Perhaps because he was lying on the cold stone floor, his lips were blue.

His head came up over his knees, making it look as if she was giving him a lap pillow.

I sighed softly.

“… …Just a moment.”

There’s nothing we can do, since we can’t shake the patient off.

Anyway, if we just hold on a little longer, rescue will come.

Until then, I can only share warmth.

“But why was Your Majesty lying in a place like this?”

“I met a strange man.”

“A strange man?”

Was there an event like this in the original?

“I’ve known for a long time that there were those who were after my life, but this time they’re quite serious. I didn’t think even a magician would sneak into the tournament.”

“You used magic?”

“Yeah. He was quite a skilled person. He was a guy with a black mask and a black cloak.”

Somehow, the impression I got is familiar.

【SYSTEM: You have designated ‘Cayenne’ as your partner.】

【SYSTEM: A male protagonist-specific event will occur!】

‘That weirdo… … .’

You’re not the kind of servant who likes to cause trouble, are you?

Sweat poured down my back.

“I fought that guy and fell off a cliff.”

“Oh my goodness, you’re brave enough to survive.”

Is this the main character’s buff?

If he fell off a cliff, it’s a miracle he ended up with only these injuries.

“Of course I have to survive. Didn’t you promise the princess before we left?”

He took something shiny out of his bosom.

“Is this by any chance… … ?”

It was a glorious treasure, the Sword of Victory, that only the most courageous knights could possess.

The scabbard, decorated with pure silver and jewels, gave off a splendid light.

A brilliant victory beyond compare was shining in his hands.

Perwin’s lips went up in a smirk.

“Will you accept my heart?”
