I Became A Villain In A Novel
Sixty three
Feeling that there was friction in the meeting of Cecilia and Liona, the people who saw it only whispered and dodged, Liona just put on a cold expression while Cecilia as usual smiled kindly.
"I didn't expect the daughter of the Asteria Duke to be so weak, but it's a good thing that you don't die quickly, if it's too soon it's so unpleasant." Cecilia said with a very sweet smile, making some of the men passing by unable to divert her back.
"Oh, since when did the Sage holy tower take care of the lives of others? I didn't expect it to turn out that you were so interested in my life, well this makes me feel honored." Liona replied to him with a sarcastic smile.
Arthur who usually likes to interfere in the affairs of others can not even enter their chatter, indeed Liona seems to always succumb and has no ability to argue, but if he was angry even the worst person could not twitch like him.
"Well, you should be honored to be noticed by me." Cecilia proudly replied to Liona's words.
"Yes, I feel really honored. Ah how can this dirty me get your attention, but I'm really grateful for this, which means you remember and think of me a lot."
"..."
Cecilia clenched her hands together, Liona is so annoying! Moreover, his sarcastic smile was, it felt like he wanted to grab Liona's hair to bald.
"Then we'll excuse you, sorry to bother you. See you back." Cecilia pulled Prasina's downed hand, either feeling guilty or enduring the shame.
Liona sighed in relief, it was hard to deal with a snake woman like Cecilia, in the novel 'The Happiest Princess' should Cecilia have a kind and gentle personality, not such a hypocritical woman!
After all from the beginning he never bothered her! Just avoid it because it does not want to end tragically like in the novel.
But this story deviates away from the plot, Liona also can not guess the future that will come if guessing.
"Look at that woman! It's disgusting, he's the one who's arguing with you, but he's the one who's embarrassed himself. I don't know why he's so happy to be in trouble with you." Luther grumbled.
"That's because of my incredible charm."
"..."
'fuck it, if they keep quiet like this, it will only embarrass me.' Inner Liona held back the shame over her confidence.
"Aren't you ashamed to say that?" Elios flatly asked, somehow Liona's face warmed up. 'of course I'm embarrassed.' wanted to feel like saying so, but it would only drop self-esteem.
"No."
Soon Liona left her friends giggling, sometimes Liona acting absurd and shameless, but they liked her side so much.
There was not much going on at the Academy, Liona was just learning to sword, concoct potions, practice basic spells and fight, remember the human bone and skeleton arrangements, and attend every subject.
His life in the Academy was very boring, almost a year Liona was in this world, even though so many things had happened, in two weeks he would hold a ceremony of maturity.
"The crown prince is coming."
"Say she'll ask lady Asteria, but doesn't she have a fiance?"
"Why Lady Asteria? Isn't the crown prince lady Cecilia's lover?"
The gossipers actually whispered loudly as Liona passed by, even though her Academy life was boring, yet countless gossiped about her.
For some reason the emperor became more interested in Liona, Liona had already tried to release the Crown Prince from the illusion, yet it was more complicated than she expected.
"It looks like they'll die if one day doesn't gossip about you." Luther frowned, he was furious as some people showed blatant hatred towards Liona, even slandering!
Liona did not know since when it became like this, when he said the emperor was not interested in him? Sean had also pressured the emperor not to disturb the Asteria Duke family.
In fact Liona could free the crown prince's illusion and tell him to tell the emperor to stop being interested in him, although it was complicated but if he suppressed it using a tenebris, the crown prince would come to his senses.
But Sean said if it would only harm himself, because the greater dark magic used for small things would only provoke strong people, and could endanger his family, he said, that's why Liona just needs more preparation.
"Celia, isn't the crown prince your lover? Yet why did the emperor constantly press for the crown prince to be engaged to her? She herself has a fiancee."
Liona and her friends glanced at a blond woman with black spots whispering to Cecilia and looked at Liona with disdain.
"I-I don't know either, I can only trust the crown prince, after all Liona already has a fiancee, there's no way she's teasing the crown prince."
Liona just rolled her eyes lazily, who doesn't know the meaning behind her words? It meant that Liona was a cheap woman if she really teased the crown prince, even though she herself was already engaged.
"I admit that she is very beautiful, but her behavior is completely untrue, she snatches your lover and also the attention of others! Truly a woman filled with envy, was that the lesson the Duke gave?"
This time the woman had gone too far, Liona was silent because indeed she did not want to waste time on unimportant matters, but if she brought her family Liona could not let go.
"Liona!" Just as Arthur was about to stop Liona, he was already right in front of the blond woman.
Plaques
Plaques
Liona slapped the woman many times, she glanced towards Cecilia who covered her mouth looking satisfied, Ah it turns out this is her wish for Liona to be stamped as a rotten person!
"What are you doing?" The woman shouted in front of Liona, it only made her more emotional, she did not care about reputation or anything, was already on the bad stamp, she did not care if the stamp got worse.
Plaques
Liona slapped him again, the corner of the woman's mouth was torn and bloody, Liona slapped him mercilessly, giving absolutely no chance for the woman to fight back.
"You said what I did? Heh, I just kept quiet because I don't care about cockroaches like you! But you've crossed your line, you're just a Viscount princess, you can insult the Duke's family." Liona grabbed the woman hard.
Luther and Elios intend to stop them, but Arthur holds him back because Liona cannot be stopped!
"Your family could be ruined, watch your mouth! Otherwise I'll cut off your tongue and make your family poor!"
Afterwards Liona left without caring about the person who started whispering about her, Elios, Luther and Arthur just followed her without speaking anything.
