Death Is The Only Ending For The Villainess
chapter-146

There was a dead silence near the banquet hall, where the Emperor's congratulatory address was in full swing.

I called the servant waiting outside the banquet hall and borrowed a carriage.

How long have I been watch the splendid streets of the capital city, with my head leaning against the window?

The carriage stopped.

But the destination was a far-off gate, not in front of the the door of the mansion. "Princess, you can't go in anymore."

The horseman opened the side window and said carefully.

Sneaking out the window on the other side, I saw the gatekeepers firmly guarding the gate.

This is because the outer carriage cannot be brought into a mansion without an owner, although the patterns of the imperial palace were painted.

"Shall we ask the gatekeepers to call the Duke's carriage?" "No, thank you."

I gave the horseman some spare gold coins and opened the carriage door. "Are you going, Princess?"

The soldiers, alerted to the sight of an outsider approaching the mansion without any notice, stood down from the carriage and opened their eyes wide at me.

"Why are you alone at this time?"

The superior skillfully led me when he was asleep to be embarrassed by an unexpected figure. "I'll send a message to the butler and call the carriage right away."

"There's no need to make a fuss. Just open the door." "But"

"I'm going for a walk."

It was quite a distance from the gate to the mansion by carriage.

But at my command the gatekeepers had no choice but to open the gate. Hkiiik-. A huge iron gate slowly opened its mouth.

"Well, I'll take you to the front of the mansion." A young soldier courageously spoke to me.

I belatedly realized that the attitudes of the guards had become very cautious and extreme unlike before.

I felt a little strange. "No, don't follow me."

I shook my head and immediately moved when I saw that the door was open enough to go out and moved right away.

As I moved away from the brightly lit gate, the well-polished road quickly became dark.

It seemed to have left at sunset and returned right away from the banquet hall, but it had already been

a whole night.

The night air was cold.

I strolled along. I really wanted to do the book I bought.

I was trying to clear my mind and re-plan what I'd doin' next, but.....

I didn't think of anything while I was moving.

I had a dreamy sensation as if I were just walking on a dream path. It was strange. How long had I walk like that?

Thanks to my slow but diligent footwork, I was able to see a familiar mansion far away. 'I should go back to my room quickly and lie down.'

All I could think about was how I wanted to wash up and sleep. The pace quickened.

It was when I reached before the front door across the vast garden. "Bbiyo-yo."

A fine sound pierced my ears from somewhere. "Bird?"

I paused and looked around. "Bbiyo, bbiyo-yo-."

Then came another cry, as if to announce that it was here. I walked along the sound like I was possessed.

It was then. Just around the left corner of the building. "Bbiyo-yo."

A glimpse of the dark pink feather shone through the open windows. I approached that way.

"Bbiyo, bbiyo-yo-."

When I saw myself getting closer, the bird in the cage flapped its wings as if it was glad to see me. It was Derick's office.

"So it was you."

Even in the dark, the bird's jewels glowed brilliantly with a five-color glow. I leaned slowly down on the window frame.

On my close face, a bird came down from the torch and walked waddling along. Then he pecked the 'cock-cock' metal bars into his beak and pushed his head in. It was like a sign to be stroked.

I hesitated as I tried to bring my fingers reflexively. What if I get bitten when I try to pet it?

"Bbiyo-yo."

However, he fell with his beak as a bird urged and pushed his head in.

The colorful dark pink hair collar sticking out through the bars was a bit funny.

I eventually smiled a little and gently stroked the bird's head with my index finger. "Bbiyo, bbiyo-yo-."

The bird sounded different from before, as if it were in a good mood. Puddock- The wings were fluttered once again.

"Isn't it frustrating?"

I hadn't thought of anything until just now, but words popped out without my knowledge. A dark pink bird that looks just like my hair.

He's an expensive body with a fancy appearance more than anyone else, but in fact he's stuck in a cage and can't do anything.

Sometimes it's the kind of attention that passers-by throws at me, and it's kind of happy to live on....

"Actually, I feel stuffy. I'm out of breath every second."

It didn't look much different from me trapped in this fucking game.

"I thought it wouldn't matter, because it would be over if I get out of here"

"Bbiyo-yo."

As if to answer my words, the bird cried straight away. I smiled faintly at the sight.

Then I raised my hands to bury my face. "Ha, ha, ha."

A broken smile came out of my mouth.

when I was alone on the terrace after the Crown Prince left, it was a self-help that did not allow me to speak out.

I knew better than anyone else that it was a game, but I felt so stupid and pathetic that I expected something and I was disappointed.

Only after I hid my two hands so that no one could see, I slowly opened my face.

I lied to myself that it was just a game every time, and I didn't care about it because it was over when I escaped, but in fact, I've never been indifferent.

I was scared, afraid, and cried every minute.

'I thought there would be no more hell than when i lived in that house'

There was not a single thing I could do at my disposal here.

Starting with food, clothing, and shelter, I had to agonize over even a simple word. It's a game here, you're possessed by a bad girl with the worst reputation.

I already knew it well enough. "But why"

But why did I realize that it was only a few days before my escape?

The first man in my life to have a crush on me, why is he the ML in the game who will turn around when a normal-mode hostess appears?

I am an emotional person, so I couldn't pass this whole thing off without a hitch.

So I'm calculating like a villain, and it was more and more difficult to stop me from squeezing. "Ha"

When the sound of laughing at myself seems to be more and more like a groan of tears.

Suddenly, I thought I was so tired and exhausted. "Bbiyo-yo."

Perhaps it was strange for me who didn't say anything with my face buried in my hands, the bird tapped the bars of the spear a couple of times with its beak.

It was the moment. "Master?"

A familiar voice suddenly called me.

I slowly lifted the buried face in my hands. "Eclise."

It wasn't a hallucination.

In the dark, the dark red favorability gauge bar sparkled. A few miles away, the ML was staring at me.

Surprised by the unexpected encounter, the gray eyes were slightly larger. He moved his steps when he saw me with my head up.

jobokjjobok-. (the sound of his steps)

As I stared at him approach me at a constant speed, I felt my hand on the cheek. There was no water on it. It was a relief.

At the same time, Eclise stood tall before me.

"Are you coming back from the swordsmanship class now?"

I wasn't in the mood to laugh at all, but I worked hard and made a smile around my mouth. Eclipse stared at me with an uncertain eye, and soon nodded slowly.

"You're very late."

I didn't know the time, but it was a rough patch.

In fact, there was no spirit in the thought that I might have caught up with the appearance that no one was able to see.

Eclise slowly opened his mouth. "What are you doing here?"

"Just."

I replied with a shrug as if nothing was wrong. "I was watching birds."

In my words, the gaze of Eclise slipped to the cage next to it.

For a moment, the grey eyes that stayed in the dark pink bird in the cage came back to me again. "Did yougo out of the Palace?"

He looked strange in my appearance.

I belatedly closed my eyes and nodded, breaking the fact that I was wearing full makeup on a banquet dress.

"Oh, yes." ""

"There was a banquet in the palace today."

There was no mention of banquets relating to the Crown Prince.

It would make you feel dirty if anyone listened to the story of the main culprit who killed his home country.

However, due to the immediate reaction, the consideration became useless. "The Crown Prince's birthday banquet?"

"Did you know that?"

"My teacher also participated." (note: poor baby)

"Really?"

I was so surprised that I only blinked. 'So there's no class today?'

As soon as the question passed through my mind. Eclise asked suddenly. "By the way"

"......."

"Why did you come back to young master's hall?" (young master= young duke) I felt a little nausea.

I see. It must be visible to others. That I came back alone secretly.

There's no way you didn't know. If the real owners had come back, the mansion wouldn't be so quiet. But I didn't have to tell Eclise this trivial story.

"......."

I just laughed silently and vaguely. But at that moment.

Eclise's eyes flinched. "Why?"

"Huh?"

"Why are you laughing like that?"

His face was as dull as usual as a wax figure.

So I couldn't immediately understand what he was saying. "Did they make you sad again?"

"What"

"The Duke and other nobles."

His subsequent words left me blank. Jobok- Eclise is one step closer to me.

His face, immersed in a dark shadow, was revealed in the bright moonlight.

"You always had that look on your face whenever you came here after what those bastards did." His face, again, was horrendous.
