The Villain’s Sister Suffers Today-Chapter 70
Episode 70
Translator : Missme Editor : Aru
“Thank you for sending me the gifts and taking care of me.”
“I didn’t mean send it for that. Well, I’m glad you liked it.”
After a pretending cough, the prince continued.
“By the way, what brings you here–”
The Crown Prince’s gaze passed me and reached the messy library desk.
The messy desk was a bit embarrassing to display proudly to others.
“–There seems to be a lot of material to look at.”
“Oh, yes. There’s a lot of books here which you can’t see in a regular library so…….”
“Isn’t it troublesome to transcribe every book?”
‘Of course, it’s troublesome.’
It was when I thought he was asking something obvious. The prince’s soft voice followed.
“I’ll help you borrow books if you want.”
“What?”
I opened my eyes wide. At this time, Ari, who was pricking her ears next to me, answered as if she had waited.
“Thank you!”
“Wait, Ari. – No, Lady Grace. Could you wait a minute?”
After leaving Ari to Dylan and Sir Davery, I saw the Crown Prince again.
“Excuse me, Your Highness, the imperial library books aren’t able to be borrowed…….”
“I have that much authority.”
He meant that he would make it possible even though it was not possible.
I was embarrassed by the prince, who proudly offered to break the rules.
Of course, it wouldn’t be too hard to let me borrow some books under the Crown Prince authority.
‘Is that okay?’
The Crown Prince smiled and continued to speak as if he had read my subtle gaze.
“At first glance, it looks like you need a lot of material. I don’t think you’ve transcribed even half of the books you’ve brought out as far as I can tell, right?”
It was accurate.
“That’s true but….”
“I don’t think the princess has enough time to transcribe all the manuscripts, but who’s to blame if the princess, who’s ever recovered from all the strain, falls back to bed?”
‘My responsibility.’
Isn’t that what I deserve?
But I didn’t bother to bring this up and break the acidity. Anyway, it was a welcome offer to let me borrow the book and there was no reason to refuse it.
Then, at the time, Ari had crept away from Dylan and Sir Davery and opened her mouth again.
“Thank you.”
“…….”
Then she tugged at my sleeve and whispered desperately.
“Eonni, I actually hated writing in school the most.”
“…….”
“I really hate it. Terribly hate it. Extreme disgust.”
“……”
“Save me…….”
In the end, I responded to the Crown Prince.
“Thank you for your kindness.”
***
The Crown Prince also attached a user to carry the book to the mansion.
It was an incomprehensible service.
Ari chose several books with all her might. Then several strong servants followed us with dozens of books.
I glanced at the back of the Crown Prince, who walked about two steps ahead.
‘I’ll take you there.’
After lending as many books as needed, the crown prince said so to me. It was a kindness without justification to decline.
‘He’s not getting lost.’
I was actually worried when he took the lead without setting up a user.
Contrary to my concerns, the Crown Prince did not seem to wander the way.
If I could see such a hint, I would have come forward and let him know.
Well, it’s the Imperial Palace. No matter how bad he is with finding the way, he wouldn’t be that bad and couldn’t find his way within his own home.
The last time I saw him lose his way was in the Imperial Palace Garden, well, it must have been a special case.
After much appreciation, I stopped looking at the Crown Prince as if he were finding his way.
Instead, I started thinking about something else.
‘What do I do?’
The Crown Prince was now showing me excessive kindness.
He ignored the regulations and allowed me to borrow books, and he insisted on taking me from the library to the entrance of the palace.
It was a little too much to say that it was a common generosity from The Crown Prince that would be bestowed on anyone.
If it had been the past, I could have somehow convinced the male lead character was different.
But not now. Since what I’ve been through.
I remember what the Crown Prince told me the other day on the territory.
If I listen to that blatant remark and pass the current situation simply to the interpretation, “The Crown Prince is so kind!” then that means there is something wrong with my sense.
‘Unfortunately, I don’t think I’m fighting some disease connected with my sense.’
So what’s the conclusion?
“What am I supposed to do?”
I was worried.
At this point, whether it’s just a favour, good feeling or anything, it seems certain that the Crown Prince has a special interest in me.
The only problem was that no matter what his mind was, my answer was fixed anyway.
It won’t change, and it couldn’t change.
Then, in this situation, should I just come forward and say no to reject him before the time passes?
‘But I didn’t hear his confession so it’s kind of weird to say no and reject…….’
I know everything but pretend that I don’t know it, that’s what bothers me.
‘What’s best for this situation?’
I felt like my mind all tangled up. I made a mess of my thoughts with my imagination and soon swallowed a sigh.
I’ve never had a problem like this before, about confessing. I’m not saying that there was no one who showed a rational affinity for me. It’s just then that I wasn’t interested in it all.
‘I really wasn’t interested.’
I thought that other people’s minds were others and I didn’t have to be responsible for it. Whether they like me or love me passionately or beyond it. I don’t have to worry about their feelings nor feel any responsibility at all.
“In fact, even now, the idea itself hasn’t changed much, but……….’
People were both very cunning and interesting.
I stick to the same opinion as before in my head, however, apart from that, my feelings change like a palm flip.
Maybe it’s because it’s after realizing about my unrequited feelings. I could not be as indifferent and buried in other people’s feelings as before.
I can’t repay his heart, but I hope he’s at least a little less hurt.
As if I would like it to be.
‘Whoa.’
I captured the tidy back of the crown prince’s head and his neat steps that came into my eyes.
I hope he doesn’t like me. I wish his feelings weren’t that far. So that he won’t be bothered, sad, miserable or sick because of me.
‘…. Well, the thing that concerns me like this is not only by projecting my situation but also because the prince is a very distant person.’
I’ll confess one more thing. In fact, I am half responsible for burning or coldly ignoring the other person’s feelings.
‘Since there were only a few decent people.’
The world was wide, and there were many nasty humans.
It’s a piece of basic knowledge about other people’s behaviour and guts, and I think I can write a paper on social experiments, observation, and research because I’ve seen this psychology so many times.
‘If you refuse to accept my heart, you’ll be treated like nobody, and you’ll pay the price for it.’
There were so many nasty people who were resentful of being rejected, disparaging and belittling.
Oh, I’m getting hot from imagining it. It’s so filthy, nasty, and low.
‘As a result, all of them have been out of sight for some time now.’
Anyway, compared to such humans, the crown prince was certainly a rare good man.
I’m sorry about the comparison. Well, anyway compared with those kinds of humans, The Crown Prince was a good man.
‘So even if I didn’t do anything, I’m already feeling guilty.’
Haah.
I’m sighing again. I thought the ground was going to sink if I sighed too much.
It was when I was walking so silently in thought. Suddenly, some masked gunmen appeared from somewhere and attacked the crown prince.
“I’ll kill you!”
“…….?!”
The Crown Prince, despite the unannounced surprise, calmly twisted his body to avoid the attack and hit the back of his opponent.
It was a natural movement as if it had been stuck in the body. Unperturbed by the series of movements, the other man came upon the Crown Prince. I was startled and backed away.
Sir Davery and Dylan hurriedly pulled out the sword.
“Please step back.”
“What are those guys!”
Without delay, I quickly led Ari to flee behind the two.
At first glance, the number of them protruding out of nowhere seemed close to twenty.
I was astonished.
What is it?
Why are you taking off that suspicious mask? What’s going on all of a sudden?
I was dumbfounded by the unexpected surprise.
I suddenly realized.
‘Oh, it’s dinner time now.’
The sunset that filled the sky was so beautiful today.
When I found out the cause of the situation, I calmed down rather than before anyway. Ari looked relatively calm as if she had gone through a similar process of enlightenment.
However, the prince looked quite embarrassed.
“What the hell is these people……How the hell did all these people break into the castle?”
‘If the world is helping, that many people of course more than possible……’.
This world has the power to turn a stable horseman into a psychopath and call in more than 40 bandits along the road.
Somehow, all impossible things are possible in the face of the world’s will to kill Ari.
‘This damn dirty world.’
How long will this be? Isn’t this too much?
Then a man who seemed to be the captain of the masked gang opened his mouth.
“Hah, after a long investigation, I found a secret passage.”
“Don’t lie. There can’t be such things in the Imperial Palace that I don’t know.”
“Yes, it’s a lie, actually. It’s just that it’s easier to break in today.”
‘He’s being honest.’
“To put it another way, heaven helped. I guess your prince’s luck is up. Now die!”
However, with the help of the world, he was able to break into the palace with his people, but he could not get the prince as proudly as he shouted.
