169. Villainess Special: Easy to attract aggro

【WARNING! An abnormal approach to the original story development has been detected!】

A mysterious man with pale rose-colored hair.

The moment he grabbed Roselia’s arm, a red warning window appeared in his vision.

The man glanced at it indifferently and looked down at Roselia.

“fizzle.”

“… … !”

When he put his index finger on Roselia’s lips, Roselia froze.

Perwin, who was watching the scene, immediately took the man’s arm away.

“What are you doing to someone else’s fiancée? Guard!”

His face was contorted in disgust.

As soon as Perwin called the guards, armed guards stormed into the banquet hall.

“What, what is it?”

“What’s going on now?”

The uninvited guest who appeared without a sound caused a commotion in the hall, but the guards hesitated and were unable to drag the man out.

“What are you doing? Get this guy out right now!”

“I’m sorry, Your Majesty, but who are you talking about… … .”

“What? You call that a thing? This man in front of the princess!”

While Perwin and the guard were bickering, the man approached Hertia with elegant steps.

“Hertia.”

“Uh, yeah?”

As he opened his mouth, a pleasant sound flowed out through his vocal cords.

“What if you came here alone? I was surprised when you suddenly disappeared.”

“Huh? I, I’m talking… … right?”

Hertia, who had been teasing Roselia until just now, pointed at herself with her index finger.

“Yes. If you were going to come this far, you should have asked permission from your father in advance. No, you should have at least told this brother. Do you know how worried everyone is back home?”

“Huh? You’re my brother?”

Hertia blinked her large eyes in bewilderment.

“I don’t have an older brother… … ?”

“Hertia. I’m not in the mood to joke around right now.”

When the man spoke with a stern tone, his eyes turned red.

close.

The man nonchalantly dismissed the warning window.

Then the system window that had been hidden behind the warning window appeared.

【SYSTEM: A new character from the original, Luis de Paillon, is added!】

【SYSTEM: Hertia’s main settings will change!】

“uh…….”

Hertia, who had been dragging out her words, quickly changed her expression.

“I’m sorry, Brother Louis. But if I don’t do it this way, Abamama won’t allow it. I couldn’t help it!”

Hertia puffed out her chest and shouted loudly.

“Hertia, you really… … don’t you think about what your parents might be worried about?”

“Blood. Am I a child?”

“Promise me you’ll contact me right away after the ball tonight. Hurry up.”

“… … I got it.”

When Louis urged her to answer, Hertia nodded reluctantly.

As Hertia pouted her lips like a foolish youngest daughter, the people gathered in the banquet hall started to murmur.

“Prince Louis? Was there such a person?”

“Did King Pyron have such a grown-up successor?”

As the crowd erupted in confusion, Louis turned to look at Perwin.

“I apologize for the late greeting, Your Highness Ferwin. I am Luis, the first prince of the Kingdom of Pyron. It is an honor to be with you in this honorable capacity.”

Unlike the reckless princess Hertia, Louise greeted him with a dignified attitude.

“I am honored to be invited to this prestigious event in place of Abamama.”

“… … .”

Despite Louis’s cool introduction, the suspicious gaze was not easily dispelled.

“Did you say Prince Louis?”

“Yes, Your Majesty.”

“That’s strange. I’ve never heard of another heir to the throne in the Kingdom of Pyron.”

Perwin looked sharply at his secretary.

The secretary nodded his head in confusion.

“I am embarrassed. My knowledge is limited, so I did not recognize you. Your Majesty, this is the first prince of the Kingdom of Pyron. Princess Hertia is the youngest daughter of His Majesty King Pyron.”

“What? Just now it was clear―”

It was at that moment that Perwin was about to question his secretary.

“Is there a problem?”

“… … !”

Louis looked at Perwin with a sad smile.

【SYSTEM: Synchronizing changes to the world view!】

Then Perwin, who had been doubtful for a long time, shook his head.

“It seems my secretary was mistaken, as we have had little contact with the Kingdom of Pyron.”

“That could be true. People often make mistakes.”

This time, Louis looked back at Roselia.

She looked up at him with puzzled eyes, as if wondering what was going on.

Louis had a lot to say to her, but unfortunately now was not the time.

【WARNING! We have detected a story flow that seriously interferes with the original development.】

【The original protection system imposes a penalty on the character ‘Lewis’.】

Ugh.

I felt the hot clump of blood rising from my gut and flowing back up my throat.

First of all, the priority was to repair the broken body.

“Okay, I’ll take my leave now.”

He smiled softly and left the banquet hall.

* * *

“Excuse me, just a moment… … !”

The mysterious man, who introduced himself as Louis, quickly left the banquet hall.

“Where are you going, Oppa!”

Princess Hertia tried to follow Prince Louis, but the ball was about to begin, so she too was forced to stay behind in the banquet hall.

‘What on earth is going on?’

I stared at the spot where he had disappeared for a long time.

‘… … That person, is he the manager?’

It’s too similar to what I saw before to say no.

It’s not uncommon to see pink hair that’s visible from two hundred meters away.

‘No, but why are you acting like a prince all of a sudden?’

I have never heard anywhere that Princess Hertia had a brother.

Since the two are said to be siblings, their appearances do look quite similar… … .

‘Confused, confused.’

In the original, Princess Hertia and her older brother, who we’ve never seen before, appear.

Just in case, I tried searching for Prince Louis using the original work search function, but no information came up, probably because he is not a character in the original work.

‘There’s nothing I can do. I have to ask them directly.’

I was planning to sneak out of the banquet hall midway through the event when I had the chance.

Until then, I had decided to stay quiet and unnoticed.

“… … .”

Oh, my back hurts.

Maybe it was because of the commotion earlier, but I felt people’s persistent gazes.

Thanks to the manager, I was able to prevent the disaster of Princess Hertia getting slapped in the face, but it seems like I can’t do anything about the attention that follows me due to the villainess passive.

Seraphine was still looking at me with worried eyes.

Then someone came to my seat.

“Long time no see, Princess Roselia.”

“?”

I turned my head and saw a rough-looking man standing there.

From his striking red hair to his aggressive demeanor and his overly expensive-looking attire.

That person is definitely―

“You would fight with my sister by grabbing her hair every chance you got. Wow, you’re really angry, aren’t you?”

Cedric, the eldest son of the Marquis of Balton, chuckled.

The man was the successor to the Marquis of Balton and Evelyn’s older brother.

In the original work, he was a passing character, but as I lived Roselia’s life, I often encountered him.

‘Because of his bad relationship with Evelyn, Cedric also had ill feelings toward me.’

Do these siblings have a disease that will kill them if they don’t pick a fight with me?

Since I was studying abroad, I probably wouldn’t have much opportunity to visit this country, but whenever I ran into him in social circles, he would inevitably pick on me.

“Well, if you can’t change your temper even after being dumped by the crown prince, then there’s something wrong with your intelligence.”

As Cedric pretended to be talking to himself and started muttering loudly, the people around him also turned to look at him.

‘Oh my.’

This is such endless aggro.

Perhaps the only silver lining is that my restrictions on my actions have been lifted.

“hey.”

“… … !”

When I suddenly started speaking informally to him, the smile disappeared from his snickering face.

“Hey? Did you just say ‘hey’?”

“Oh. You still don’t know how to read the mood. Your little sister looks like she’s going to get her balls blown off, but you’re still laughing.”

“what?”

Cedric’s expression turned grim.

“Your sister. She got involved with His Majesty the Emperor’s government, so she’ll never get along well. Do you think your family will be okay? This will be the last banquet, so enjoy it.”

“this……!”

He grabbed my wrist threateningly.

“Aren’t you going to let this go?”

“Hey. Listen carefully. What kind of person is our father? Do you think he wouldn’t have interfered with Evelyn’s affairs? He bribed the interrogator a long time ago and set the table in our favor. Unlike someone who doesn’t have parents.”

He was swearing viciously.

“Do you understand? Just get rid of the evidence and that’s it… … .”

“Cedric!”

At that moment, Marquis Balton approached from afar with angry steps.
