I Awoke as an Imprisoned Villainess-Chapter 66 - Disastrous scene

I was confronted with a ridiculous scene.

“……….”

I, who should have been looked down upon until a moment ago, was now sitting alone in a chair, being served by a group of brawny men.

Everyone was prostrating before Violet sama, and among them, the blonde man who seemed to be the leader of the group – the man who grabbed my hair and tried to cut it off only had a pair of underwear on him.

If there was a knight here to enforce the public morals of the city, he would surely be taken away immediately.

Of course, the one who coerced him into it would be taken away too.

“W-Wh-wh-wha....what....!?”

It was the worst. It was a scene that went beyond my expectations.

I had been thinking that I didn’t want to be called a greedy evil lady, but I’d burst out in tears if the word ‘shameless’ was added to the name on top of that.

“C-Cloth. Clothes! Please put on your clothes!”

I took the clothes that were neatly folded next to the blonde man, then I pushed them onto the man with my eyes shut in a fluster.

I felt the man look up and a moment later, he gasped and exclaimed, “Uwa!”.

Starting from that, maybe the men noticed me, “Eek!” “Crap” words like that came out from their mouths and they whispered to each other quietly.

“T-This is a dream, right!? Why did the Young Lady of Duke Elford come!? Someone more dangerous is here......”

“No, she’s still better than the poisoner! That’s no longer a human being....!”

The poisoner who is no longer a human being, that can’t be about me, right?

What in the world did Violet sama tell them?

I was speechless, incapable of forming words.

“—-Excuse me”

I heard a voice familiar to me, but for some reason, it was low and harbored with a sinisterness that ran the chills down the spine.

Normally, this voice would reassure me but today, just hearing it made my body tremble on its own.

“Sophia Alcott—I heard that the thugs who kidnapped her brought her to here”

“C-Claude sama?”

I turned around and looked into Claude sama’s eyes, wondering how he knew where I was.

With unusually disheveled hair, clothes and breathing, Claude sama froze for a moment when he saw me and Violet sama and then let out a deep sigh.

“——……I see. Now I understand”

He muttered that quietly and stared at Violet sama.

~~~~~

To see through the body swap in one look, as expected of Claude sama.

I’m touched. Meanwhile, Claude sama gave me a bit of a consoling look after which he turned his stern gaze to the men, saying, “These are all of the thugs?”.

Basically, when a beautiful person is angry, it’s very scary.

No matter what, as a knight- what’s more, the head of the knights, Claude sama’s aura was so terrifying that even I was shaken up, not to mention the men who were called thugs.

They glared at us as if we were the gatekeepers of hell who didn’t have a shred of mercy and the place went silent as all of the noises extinguished.

Claude sama’s gaze became more piercing in front of the naked blonde man in particular.

As for me, who was ultimately not much harmed in the final result, I couldn’t help feeling sorry for the blonde man.

Cutting through that kind of hellish atmosphere, a clear distinguished voice resounded.

“—–Welcome, Lady Elford. And....you’re here surprisingly fast, Knight Commander Claude Bradley”

With a giggle, Violet sama’s gaze turned to Claude sama. In between her giggles, one could hear people muttering “Eek” “A knight commander” “It’s all over” in a small voice.

She was quite enjoying these cries. Or so it seemed to me. Then, Violet sama laughed gracefully.

“I’m honored that you’ve come to save me. But you don’t need to bother. We’ve solved the problem amicably among ourselves. —-Right?”

“Yes!”

Everyone there replied loudly to Violet sama’s strangely low “Right?”.

Seeing this, Claude sama frowned and turned his eyes to Violet sama.

“You wrote in the letter that I should come alone. Are you telling me to not capture them?”

“Yes”

Looking at Violet sama who was smiling cheerfully, the men who were prostrating on the ground smiled with relief.

“At least not for now”

At these words, their eyes widened in surprise.

Seeing this, Violet sama narrowed her eyes and she said with a sweet smile, “Oh my, I told you to be useful, didn’t I?”.

“Is your life so cheap that you can be saved without doing anything?”

After saying that much, Violet sama called out the man’s name. “Carter. Explain”

“Yes” The naked blonde man replied. He then began to explain the course of events.
