The Villain’s Sister Suffers Today

Episode 45

Translator : Missme Editor : Aru

The dreary, quilted hideout in the basement of an old building, now has become a gloomy grave where more than ten bodies have turned cold and rolled over.

Even after creating such a scene, the young man was not much agitated.

He looked down at the bandage on his left arm, which he had been careful all the time to prevent blood from splashing.

A voice flashed into his mind.

‘You got your doctor’s prescription, right? Don’t strain yourself. Promise me.’

It was a clear voice with a soft echo, not matching, even a bit, with the place nor the landscape.

There was a smile at the mouth of the young man. It was quite different from his figures when he killed the men.

It was a smile that he might not even realize.

“Well, I didn’t strain myself..”

The young man was the Duke of Widgreen.

And although he didn’t know who the dead man was, he was the head of the largest dark organization in The Empire.

Ash turned around and slowly left the place.

In the windless underground tomb, only a stinky, bloody scent was engulfed.

***

“What?”

The eyes of a middle-aged man who received the report grew teary.

“All……dead?”

The right-hand man, who brought the news, bowed his head silently.

“Suddenly like this? They’re all dead? With not a single one left?”

“As a result of checking the traces, it was one person’s prosecution. The Duke seems to have stepped up himself.”

The hand of a middle-aged man on the armrest flinched.

“Oh, my…”

A sense of bewilderment, embarrassment, stupor, disbelief.

The voice of a middle-aged man, mixed with such things, dropped.

the right-hand man thought.

‘It’s started.’

Sure enough.

“Oh, my God! Damn it! Damn it! Damn it!”

It’s a mess!

Listening to the sound of all kinds of things being smashed and broken, he kept his eyes closed.

‘His dog-like temper doesn’t change over time.’

No, the dog might be better.

As soon as he thought so, a piece of broken glass hit the wall and brushed the right-hand man’s cheek.

He could feel the blood dripping from the wound.

The right-hand man left it untouched and unexpressed.

He worked for years, wiping his opponent’s back. This was already like a routine for him.

A middle-aged man, who had been wild once, soon hung on the sofa as if he was exhausted.

He opened his mouth.

“……Is there any possibility that The Duke knew that the client was me?”

“No, Nothing sir.”

“Why?”

“As said at the beginning, we delivered the request through an intermediary agent. It would be the middle agent’s name if the dead men blew it, and we didn’t reveal any of our identities to the agent.”

“Yes…….”

It was like that. It will be like that.

But it was more like a habit than preparing for things to go wrong.

What he means is that this situation is really unexpected.

“Ha……but how did the Duke know?”

“They were clumsy. He must have spilt his own traces.”

“Those insect-like men.”

After spending money like that.

A middle-aged man clenched his fist. A tendon sprouted greenly on the back of his hand.

“……can you try again?”

“It’ll be hard. I’m sure the other side must already become wary at this point. The same attempt would be difficult in many ways.”

A middle-aged man laughed in vain. It was a troublesome situation.

Not to the worst, but obviously missed the best.

“It’s bad luck. It’s hard to guarantee our success if we don’t kidnap the princess.”

It’s useless to kidnap any other.

Middle-aged men needed hostages. Shake his goal and tie his feet as much as he wants.

The only thing he thought most useful as the hostage was The Princess Lydia Widgreen.

So he prepared a lot of money and asked for such an organization.

He didn’t expect the result to be like this.

“What would you do?”

The right-hand man waited for his master, who had no words.

The middle-aged man buried himself deeply on the sofa. He then tapped his finger on the armrest.

Soon after, he said.

“The kidnapping of a princess outside is now impossible, isn’t it?”

“Yes.”

“Okay. Because I need the princess anyway, then we’ll kidnap her within the mansion.”

The right-hand man frowned and straightened his forehead out of sight.

“You’ll be questioned as soon as the princess disappears from the mansion.”

“I suppose so. I didn’t forget that.”

A middle-aged man raised his hand. Then the nearby attendant offered a new glass instead of broken and broken glass.

A middle-aged man who emptied the liquid in it at once said.

“So, after the kidnapping, we will carry out a rebellion. Let’s do it tonight.”

“What? That’s too early…….”

“They’ll only be here for a few days.”

In reply, he handed over the empty glass to the attendant.

The liquid’s ingredients spread through the body to calm anger. The whole body slowly drained of strength.

A middle-aged man repeated his words a while ago as if he were nailing a nail in the waterlogged.

“Remember. Tonight, while kidnapping the princess, we proceed with the rebellion at the same time. If it fails, there will be no next move. So know that and prepare.”

“……I see.”

“Get out.”

He then quietly closed his eyes with his body buried on the sofa after sending out his right-hand man and attendant.

He recalled the day before.

‘Who’s coming?’

In one day, he received the news that The New Duke was coming down to the territory with the princess and the other family members.

It was sudden. At a time like this?

What’s more, the news only comes out on the same day. Even the advance message didn’t work.

‘Did he smell it?’

Did The Duke notice something?

He felt a chill in his stomach. If so, it was a job that should not be held still.

‘I didn’t think he had any concrete circumstances or evidence yet, seeing that he didn’t bother me as soon as he arrived.’

However, he cannot afford to kill time with ease.

But if he finds out something, it’s really over.

‘But I thought I’d let it go for a few days.’

If only the snake hadn’t been spotted like that this morning.

The forehead of a middle-aged man who recalled what had happened in the morning was badly wrinkled.

‘Because of the stupid underlings.’

He can’t believe he couldn’t complete the work to manage a snake.

‘How limp I was when I heard that The Duke had been bitten by a snake in the garden.’

Fortunately, the opponent didn’t seem to doubt anything.

Well, just because he’d seen a snake, he wouldn’t know that there’s something.

But even so, he felt uneasy. Just in case.

So, he decided to abolish what he had decided to watch and changed his plan to move forward.

‘It’s something I should’ve done in one day anyway.’

Yeah, not necessarily now. Or even if it wasn’t a few days later.

Even if The Duke didn’t come down to the territory like this, it was decided.

Soon a middle-aged man murmured like a habit.

“This territory…….is mine.”

He had it, he raised it.

“I can’t give it to a stiff, newbie kid who knows nothing about it just because he took over the family.’

It doesn’t make sense.

‘The time has come. The time when I should take over my own.’

The shoulders of a middle-aged man, whose eyes were fixed on the air, were slightly jagged. The left hand on the armrest tremble convulsively.

“Hah, hah, hah,”

His moustache, greased to the infrequent laughter flowing low, followed by a stitch.

Lucas Biffren’s eyes were dimmed as he stared into the void of nothing.

***

It was peaceful to go on a field trip with Sir Davery, a rookie guide with passion.

More precisely, it’s just ‘became’ peaceful.

From some point on, I was aware of the surroundings where nothing happened, and then suddenly muttered.

“Did they give up?”

“Yes?”

Sir Davery, who had just paid for two fruit candies, offered me one.

I opened my mouth as I was handed a coin-sized lychee fruit that was put on a stick and hardened in a sugar coat- Tanghulu, which also existed in this world, and ate it.

“They’ve been quiet around since a long time ago. They’ve been following me so persistently and repeatedly doing suspicious things, and I wonder if they’ve given up now.”

I said casually, but Sir Davery’s reaction was unexpected.

“……did you know?”

Thanks to it, I was a little dumbfounded.

“How can I don’t know?”

Who doesn’t know that?

‘No, maybe I wouldn’t know.’

On second thought, I might not know.

A noble lady, grown up finely, is a pure and innocent noble person who has never known the dark side of the world.

Sadly, however, I know the world is dirty.

Considering that I grew up with a diamond spoon, not a golden spoon, there was a side that was steamed of innocence.

‘It’s all because of my previous life.’

I’ve been fighting with a cop in the subway, I’ve summoned a station employee, I’ve been working at a convenience store at night, I’ve been cursed at by a drunkard, I’ve been told to give my money to a middle-aged swindler, and I’ve never heard a word from my mom and dad.….

Like ordinary common people, I lived by looking at both bitter and acidic flavours.

So no matter how kind the new world is to me, how beautiful and pure could I see the world?

‘The world is always a gutter.’

In my opinion, it is fundamentally so.

People live in the same place.

And, in a way, pessimistic thoughts were underlying, so I came out of the house and sensed suspicious signs quite quickly.

The first was a pickpocket. Very suspicious.

He really wasn’t. What wasn’t it?

‘Which pickpocket shows off the stolen pocket in front of the owner’s eyes?’

If you stole it well, you should think about running away before you get caught. What are you doing?

The intention to come after me was so transparent that I was a little embarrassed by it.

Why do they want to catch me suddenly?

Is this the white sand beach?
