My Fiancee Was the Villainess of This World - My Fiancee Was the Villainess of This World chapter 87

87 – The only gift in the world

He headed to the garden with Priscilla, who was acting strangely, and some meat.

There was a scene there that was not much different from before I left.

“What do you think? Doesn’t it bake pretty well?”

“I burned that part.”

“… “This is a slightly charred sauce.”

Cynthia said this with a rather shameless expression on her face, and she moved her meat to the corner of the grill with the least heat.

She then went back to grilling the meat as if nothing had happened.

Dior looked at her and tried to take away her tongs, but Cynthia grinned and grabbed her tongs in the air and shook her head.

“I can do it well too.”

“Wouldn’t it be better not to worry about the children at the orphanage?”

“Is it as easy as it sounds…? . Ha… A commoner who can’t cook as well as the royal family….”

Cynthia and Dior had a point of contact other than Soleil: the orphanage.

So, even before leaving for Soleil’s dungeon, the two often met and became close friends.

He probably burned and ate some meat while having a barbecue at the orphanage.

─ Is this why you are going to get married?

─ You old man! If you want meat, you can just go to the place where they grill it at the store anyway!

─ Ha, really… Give me, how much is this meat?

─ It’s imported anyway!!!

Whether I was in my past life or my current life, it seemed like I couldn’t cook a piece of meat properly.

But seeing him try to bake it himself, it seems like his current life is better than his previous life.

… To begin with, she is just a stranger with memories of her past life, but she keeps trying to find the shadow of the Triceratops from her previous life in the saint.

I have to reflect.

This was the car I was thinking of.

“Have you already eaten everything? “Give me your empty plate, Miles.”

“Thank you, saint.”

Cynthia gently placed the meat she had just eaten on the empty plate given to her by the escort driver.

“Here.”

“Thank you.”

Cynthia from Garden of Thorns is portrayed as a character who is a bit bold and uncharacteristic of a woman.

Unsurprisingly, all of the students attending Soleil are nobles, and he does not seem too intimidated by them either.

Rather, they are portrayed as speaking out against unfair things.

So, she is described as not having a very good reputation among other noble ladies, but her boldness and recklessness overcomes the heartache of those she targets.

With this background, I knew she had a certain personality, but I had no idea she would do something so blatantly petty.

Dior also looked at Cynthia with a slightly surprised expression, but Cynthia showed a sly look by putting a finger in front of her lips.

She must have accumulated a lot from the escort knight.

‘It must have been annoying.’

Still, I didn’t expect you to be so blatantly sarcastic.

“If you don’t have enough, take more from here.”

─ Thank you, Your Majesty!

After hearing the loud noises of the drivers, we returned to our original seats and sat in front of the grill.

“It seems like spring has arrived.”

“… “Spring?”

Priscilla, who was still showing her guard with a very nervous expression, asked carefully.

Then, like me, he looked around.

Priscilla smiled brightly as she looked around at the flowers blooming in the garden.

“Yes, it really is spring.”

But there was a very faint tension in that smile.

I had no choice but to be sure of that.

The fishy smell coming from the basket was not simply a musty smell caused by sweat.

That’s definitely─

Chiiik.

“Ahh!”

Priscilla looked perplexed as she flipped the meat on her grill with her tongs.

The back of the overturned meat was already black and burnt.

I looked at the meat and laughed.

“It’s almost May.”

No abnormal signs have yet been reported in the bodies of those staying at Biryongwan.

We need to wait a little longer and watch, but there are no abnormal signs even after such a comprehensive examination.

If problems arise even after doing this, it means that there is nothing that can be done about it even with the empire’s current capabilities.

I’ll probably have to grit my teeth and prepare to donate blood in order to make tears of the sun for a while.

“In May….”

Priscilla looked at me with a slightly troubled expression.

“Yes, my birthday is right around the corner.”

Priscilla looked at her garden for a moment, lost in her thoughts.

This garden was a birthday gift I gave to Priscilla.

He was probably worried about what to prepare as a birthday present.

“I’m looking forward to it, Priscilla.”

“Yes, yes…” .”

Don’t worry, Priscilla.

The gift you want to receive has already been decided.

***

It is May.

Detailed examinations by wizards and health ministries continued, but it was concluded that our bodies were normal.

Our quarantine life has finally come to an end.

“I’ve been indebted to you a lot, Chairman!”

With Kyle’s energetic greeting, those gathered at the Biryong Pavilion greeted each other one by one.

Most people greeted me first, but their gratitude was directed closer to Priscilla.

As she declared, Priscilla truly provided convenience to those staying at the Biryong Pavilion like a hostess.

Everyone seemed to have a good impression of Priscilla, as she responded much more skillfully than most noble ladies.

And it was the same for Cynthia.

“It was fun, Miss Priscilla. “Please keep your promise to invite me to the tea party next time!”

“Yes, Miss Cynthia. See you next time.”

Priscilla didn’t have a very good impression of Cynthia to begin with.

This is because there was a point of contact between me and Cynthia called the ‘Garden of Thorns’ that Priscilla could not interfere with.

But in front of Soleil’s classmates and Count Arbest, I declared that I would take Priscilla as my wife.

And she swore that she would listen to Priscilla’s request not to invade the empress.

In this way, Priscilla, bearing her oath to the honor of her royal family, was able to accept Cynthia as she was.

We each know the situation of this world to some extent.

Cynthia harbors a strange feeling of sympathy for Priscilla.

There was no choice but to become closer.

As we were sending off the guests, a group of people in the main office began to approach the Biryong Pavilion.

“The workers are returning.”

From Noble mtl dot com

After Priscilla asked for my understanding, she approached the approaching servants.

─ Long time no see, Miss Priscilla!

─ Welcome. Wasn’t it uncomfortable for everyone?

─ Ugh, my nature seems to be sensitive…. So where should we start?

─ First, across from His Majesty’s bedroom….

Then, like the head maid of Biryonggwan, she began giving specific instructions on where to clean.

I looked at it silently and headed to the study of Biryong-gwan with Martin, who had seen so-and-so off.

“Today is the last progress report.”

“Yes, Your Majesty. “Thank you for your hard work.”

“What. “I wanted to write a report like this every day.”

No special information.

It was such a simple report.

“Is this the end of the information about Miles?”

“Yes, Your Majesty.”

It is now possible to tie the escort knight Miles to the Biryong Pavilion.

With the time we had, we began investigating Miles.

However, there was no part that could be considered new information.

“It’s rather suspicious. “I doubted whether he was really human.”

“Hmm….”

Anything is fine with me, so I ordered them to bring me any information about Miles.

That meant that even the smallest things were okay.

Bedtime and wake-up time.

Food that I enjoy eating on a daily basis.

My favorite hobby.

A neighbor I know on a daily basis.

Even the movements he takes during the week.

It is in these small details that the portrait of a person is drawn.

So, I wanted some kind of new information, but there wasn’t any information that could be said to be very new.

But this part was even more suspicious.

‘I don’t think even John was this bad….’

John of the Garden of Thorns also continued to stay by Cynthia’s side as a guard.

However, he was a somewhat flexible man, so he was considerate so that Cynthia would not feel frustrated.

But this man named Miles seemed to be like Cynthia’s shadow, always following her wherever she went.

Above all─

“According to Sir Pedro and Kyle, a man named Miles is a man of considerable ability.”

“Yes, Your Majesty.”

“That makes it even more suspicious. Even Sir Bertrand, the sword of the Empire, spends most of his time training.”

Despite his status as an escort knight, the time this man named Miles spends in training is too short.

Isn’t this actually an act done out of consideration for other people’s eyes?

“The movement route is also a problem. “If this is true, you will be disqualified as an escort driver.”

The system is so vast that there are many cases where even people born into the system are unable to circumnavigate the system in their lifetime.

Even people who were born in the islands. But what about people who came to the islands briefly to attend Soleil?

Most people move around based on the distance between their accommodation and Soleil.

In that case, even if the escort driver cannot tour the entire system, it is normal for him to at least check this route and be aware of any risk factors in advance.

You never know when and where your escort may be in danger.

But Miles just follows Cynthia wherever she goes.

There is something.

But something crucial was lacking.

“Scouts are very helpful. “Everyone seems to think it’s just a child’s prank.”

“Yes, it can be used in this way as well.”

I decided to take advantage of the scouting system right away after a man named Miles came to the system.

Because most of the children had not even had a coming-of-age ceremony, prying on someone’s back was considered a joke.

I guess it was effective in its own way.

“It’s been a lot of hard work. “You should just go in and rest.”

“Yes, Your Majesty.”

***

It is night.

Priscilla crawled into bed, looking more uncomfortable than usual today.

I gently placed my hand on Priscilla’s shoulder as she was about to turn off the light on her side table.

“Priscilla.”

“Yes, Maximilian…” .”

“Would you like to sit down for a moment?”

“Oh, Maximilian?”

Even when the lights are on, if you sit facing each other, your thinly clad body is exposed.

Priscilla blushed with a rather embarrassed expression.

“I’ll tell you in advance now.”

I looked at Priscilla blankly and held her slightly trembling hand.

“The gift I want to receive is you.”

“… Yes?”

“I’m telling you this in advance because I’m afraid someone might say that I’m not prepared. I will receive your body and mind on my birthday. “

The biggest obstacle, the Mana of Darkness, has also been resolved.

After giving this much courage to a woman, it would be unmanly to take more than this.

Although there is still a year left until the coming-of-age ceremony, she is engaged to Hwang Myeong, and their relationship can be considered a common-law marriage.

It won’t be any problem.

In the first place, Count Arvest thought we were already in a relationship, and he even sent us baby care products as gifts, so it was never too late.

“Ah, ah….”

Priscilla nodded her head with her face turning bright red.

He looked like he was about to burst into tears because he was embarrassed but happy.

I looked at Priscilla and drew a line around her mouth.

─ Idiot… coward….

“Priscilla.”

“Maxi, Milian….”

I gently held Priscilla in my arms and whispered her magic spell into her red-hot ear.

“What did you do with the blanket I had a wet dream in, you impertinent one?”

That moment.

Time has stopped.
