Villainess Is Changing Her Role To A BroCon
chapter-188-30041322

Anna glanced at Mina, who was standing behind Ekaterina.

“I’d like to ask you about that as well; having only one maid accompany the Duchess of Yurinova does not reflect well on our family. May I request that the servants who previously looked after the Young Lady be brought back to accompany her?”

“Well, that’s fine.”

Ekaterina said smiling.

“I’ve been meaning to talk to you about that, too. You know that there is only one maid that I can take with me to the dormitories of the magic academy. As a result, I’ve grown accustomed to having only Mina look after me. I won’t be at ease with anyone else. Mina will be the only maid accompanying me until I graduate from school. The other maids are to listen to Mina’s instructions when she needs help.”

“Young Lady…”

Anna raised an eyebrow, but Ekaterina seemed oblivious.

“It’s only two and a half years until graduation, and I’ll talk to Big Brother and Novarus, the butler, to make sure they don’t misunderstand you.”

“…Thank you for the consideration.”

Anna couldn’t help but bow her head, unable to disobey after being told this much.

“Young Lady, you have changed.”

“I wonder…”

Ekaterina calmly tilted her neck in response to the unintentional murmur.

“I wouldn’t really know myself.”

Uwah, should I really do it like this…!

Ekaterina was indulging in self-disgust in her own room after Anna had left, while elegantly sipping from the teacup Mina had handed her.

I didn’t change at all! A different persona was created. It was such a big change that I nearly collapsed a few times in the beginning, and I almost failed several times from the start, but I haven’t changed at all.

Ekaterina, who had previously lived here, would silently put on the clothes they made her wear and stay in her room all day, like a dress-up doll. Anna must have been taken aback by how different I was.

“That was cool, Young Lady.”

Ekatrina’s eyes widened at what Mina, who was standing beside her, said casually.

“Did I do well?”

“Yes, you completely overturned the head maid’s suggestions. You look very sharp.”

“My, I’m glad.”

Ekaterina laughed.

Mina, the battle maid, told me I was cool. I was so embarrassed.

“I better make sure that Regina and I are always in the same room.”

“…I wonder if she’s going to ruin the dress or something.”

That would be typical villainess harassment, wouldn’t it?

Huh? But I was supposed to be the villainess.

“She’s clever, so I doubt she’d do anything serious enough to warrant dismissal. But she might encourage someone else and make them do it. You’ve got to be careful.”

“Oh, I see.”

Ekaterina let out a sigh. I wondered if it was enjoyable to harass someone with a well-thought-out plan.

…Well, I’m not a saintly person, but…. In my previous life, I remembered cursing my boss, who put me in the middle of negotiations with a client and then shot me in the back, thinking that his wife should find out about his infidelity and divorce him and ask for a huge compensation payment. I do not know if a curse counts as harassment, but I heard that it worked. I didn’t know the details, but my cheeks were fixed with a smile for a while after that happened.

To be honest, it made me feel a bit better. I would say that I understand the mindset of harassing someone and being happy when the other person feels bad, even if only a little.

However, I would never consider snitching on his wife. It’d be a waste of time and energy. If it caused harm to the other party, it would make me feel more bad than happy.

So I thought I understood, but I still wouldn’t know!

It was complicated!

“I will never let anyone mess with Young Lady’s stuff.”

I was surprised to hear the underlying strength in Mina’s indifferent voice.
