I'M A Villains In My Second Life
Chapter 117's

“I don't know if buying a dress takes a lot of energy like this, I'm really exhausted.” Leathina lay down her body on her bed and then turned and looked at the entire grocery boxes that were now piling up inside her room.

“Huff, want me to do all the jewelry and dresses that are in all those boxes.”

“Tadi Duchess just asked me to try one dress she liked but ended up asking me to try all the dresses that were in the store.”

...

At the clothing store after the first store visit, the four of them immediately moved to another store.

“Leathina try this dress.” Duchess Nice immediately snatched some dresses she saw matching Leathina then asked Leathina to wear them.

“This is also.” Nicholas and Nora also offered Leathina some of their own dresses.

“Isn't this enough? I think I've tried a lot of dresses.” Leathina said after exiting the dressing room and showing it to Duchess Nice, Nicholas and Nora who were waiting for her in the waiting room.

“Why? you're pretty wearing all those dresses, aren't you, Nicholas? Nora's? Your sister is really pretty.” Duchess Nice spoke while nudging Nicholas' arm and Nora forced him to agree to her remarks.

“Iya right you fit all those expensive dresses.” Nicholas and Nora almost simultaneously supported her mother's speech.

“Leathina try the dress I chose for you too.” Shouted Nicholas telling Leathina.

“I like this dress, we buy this one dress only.” Said Leathina nervously because she was worried that she was still told to keep changing clothes.

“Just wear them all, all the clothes you've been wearing look good on you. We'll buy everything.” Duchess Nice got more excited and went back to roaming to find Leathina more dresses to wear.

“Wait, wait, this is enough.” Leathina tried to stop the three of them but her opinion was not heard.

The same thing happened to the accessories and jewelry stores they visited. They clothed Leathina all the accessories and even almost filled Leathina's hair with accessories, leathina's neck was filled with a necklace worn by the Duchess and Leathina's fingers filled with rings on all her fingers.

Thanks to Ducess Nice, Nicholas, and Nora who make Leathina look like mothers who wear all her accessories and jewelry in one go.

...

“Nona, the bathwater is ready.”

Anne broke Leathina's daydream that was rethinking her this afternoon.

“Alright, thanks Anne. Please trim those boxes.”

“Alright Miss Leathina.”

Leathina got out of her bed and started removing her clothes aided by Anne and immediately replaced them with a bathrobe provided by Anne earlier, then walked towards the bathup and started cleaning herself.

“Woah, beautiful once.” Anne exclaimed with sparkling eyes after opening Leathina's boxes of clothes and gifts.

Anne began organizing all the items and carefully storing them in Leathina's wardrobe and jewelry box.

“Nona Leathina!” Welcome Anne after seeing Leathina finish cleaning herself.

“What's Anne?” Leathina asked puzzledly to see Anne so excited and with sparkling eyes looking at her.

“Nona, Don't Miss Leathina want to try the clothes and jewelry you just bought?"

"I know what you're thinking about Anne, but no, I don't have the energy to try again. I tried everything in the store earlier.”

“Alright Miss I understand.” Anne answered softly and gave Leathina a nightgown to wear. Her chance to see Leathia wearing beautiful sirnah dresses.

“What Miss wants to eat at the dining table with Master and madam?” Anne asked Leathina after helping her get dressed.

“No, I want to eat in my room. I don't have enough energy to walk out.”

“Alright Miss, I'll be ready soon.” Anne left Leathina alone to make dinner.

“It's best tonight I have to go back to that gambling house again.” Leathina Mumbles.

Leathina walked to her closet and took her cloak which she hid among her other dresses.

“Oh, my closet is full because of all the dresses that Duchess bought for me.”

He then took his cloak and hid it in his blanket.

“What are you doing Miss Leathina?” Anne asked with a trolley containing food for Leathina. “If you want to make the bed you should tell me let me do it, this kind of work should not be done by Miss Leathina herself.” Said Anne again as she walked over to Leathina's bed.

“No need you tidy up Anne!” Shouted Leathina stopping the movement of the new Anne would pull her blanket.

“Why Miss?”

“Do not need to neaten, besides it will fall apart soon I will sleep so all of you tomorrow you just trim.” Leathina replied nervously as she had just kept her robe under her blanket.

“God I'm so stupid, why don't I just take my cape later. What are you thinking.”

“Alright Miss Leathina, now please enjoy your food.”

“Limited Anne.”

Leathina ate all the food Anne had brought her, and she had been hungry from exhaustion. His starving stomach kept ringing asking to be filled immediately.

“Why do you keep looking at me while smiling Anne?” Leathina asked after finishing her meal.

“Nothing Miss, I just feel good to see Miss eating voraciously. Is there anything Miss Leathina needs?”

“Nothing, I'll go to bed soon. Anne my room will I lock again tonight because I don't want to be disturbed.”

“Alright Miss, I won't let anyone disturb Miss Leathina's rest.”

“Enhanced Anne.”

“Nona no need to thank, this is my job. Then excuse me Miss Leathina.” Anne exited with a trolley containing dirty dishes and then closed the door from the outside.

“This is still afternoon and there are still a few hours before the change of guard. I still have a lot of time, I'm really tired I should go after a short nap and my room door should not be locked first.” Leathina muttered then lay down and did not take long to fall asleep immediately.

...

“Someone call Leathina to eat together at the dinner table.” Duchess Nice gave an order to one of the maids.

Not daring to speak directly to Leathina the waiter immediately looked for Anne and asked Anne to tell Leathina that the Duchess of Nice asked her to eat together at the dinner table.

“I'm sorry, but tell the Duchess that Miss Leathina has eaten dinner first because she's so hungry. Now Miss Leathina is resting and does not want to be disturbed.” Anne told the waiter who came to see her.

He then returned and told the Duchess that Leathina had eaten dinner in her room and was now resting.

“Good.” Duchess Nice said she understood Leathina's situation.

“ Leathina must be exhausted.” He muttered again and then enjoyed the food the waiter had prepared for him.

“Nice, where are you going?” Duke Leonard asked his wife when he found her not walking into his room.

“I want to check Leathina's situation in her room, why don't you come with me?” The Duchess of Nice told the Duke where she was going and also took her.

“Good.” Duke Leonard answered briefly and walked side by side with Duchess Nice to Leathina's room.

“Are we not going to bother him?” The Duke asked after being in front of Leathina's room.

“We just checked her condition for a moment if she's okay. There is no harm if parents want to see how their child's face if asleep right?” The Duchess Nice said then slowly opened Leathina's room and went inside followed by the Duke.

Leathina's room was now completely dark except for a table in the corner of the room close to Leathina's bed. The half-lit candle illuminates the bed area and shows the face of Leathina who is now fast asleep.

“You see, she's still beautiful despite falling asleep.” Duchess Nice said admiring Leathina's beauty.

“Come back, you'll bother him if you keep looking at him like that.” Duke Leonard walked out of Leathina's room after seeing her daughter's state and was followed by the Duchess behind her who also wanted to come out after feeling relieved to see Leathina fall asleep.

“Almost they came in and didn't find me, fortunately I was still in my room.” Leathina muttered then opened her eyes after hearing the person who visited her just now had come out of her room.

Leathina got out of her bed and piled up some pillows and covered her with a disguise that she was the one who fell asleep in the blanket and then locked the door.

The robe that Leathina had hidden under her bed had been worn, and the sword she had slipped on her waist Leathina also covered her face so that her identity would not be known, while his long hair he rolled then put on the hood of his robe to cover his head. Open the window and start climbing down.

At the change of guard there would be about ten to fifteen minutes of free time for the guards to switch positions, the empty time was used by Leathina as an opportunity to go out unnoticed by the guards.

Leathina silently walked towards the garden and pierced through the bushes then came to the barrier wall and immediately climbed to get out of the mansion area.

“Oh, you're still here apparently.” He saw the brown horse he used yesterday still tied in the same place.

“You must be hungry and thirsty.” Leathina said as she gently stroked her horse.

“Alright let's go now, you'll I feed and drink soon.” Leathina leapt up and spurred her horse into the city.

“Give this horse eat and drink well, I'll take it again later.” Leathina left her horse to a middle-aged man who was feeding several other horses.

“Good Miss.”

After leaving her horse Leathina walks the streets of the city looking for the gambling house Yasmine and grand duke Alcott visited yesterday.

“Ah, Shit.” Bait Leathina after waiting for almost half an hour but did not see Yasmine visit the gambling house again. “What today did he not come?” Leathina asked herself then went back to observing the surroundings.

“Miss wearing a robe!” Shouted a man and shocked Leathina.

“What was the call just now aimed at me?” Leathina asked and did not dare to look. “Perhaps not, I'd better find a place just.” Leathina muttered leaving her place.

Although Leathina was wearing a robe she did not feel called upon as some people also wore robes and instead walked leisurely leaving her place and immediately looked for a new place to wait for Yasmine's arrival.

“Any once, she looks like a person I know, am I wrong person huh?” Zeyden muttered as he saw the robed woman he called not turning around and instead walking away from him.

...

“Shelf!” A glass was thrown in any direction.

“What information did you just say is correct, Tania?” Yasmine asked her personal servant.

“Yes Miss Yasmine, some people saw her enter the store with Duchess Nice today and an invitation from the Yarnell family has just arrived, they are going to have a welcoming party as well as Miss Leathina's birthday celebration, so it can be ascertained that the information regarding the return of Miss Leathina to the kingdom is true.”

“Plak!” a slap floated on Tania's cheek until it fell.

“How dare you call her Miss in front of me Tania.” Threatens Yasmine to his personal servant Tania to make her whole body tremble for fear that Yasmine will punish him even more heavily.

“EXIT NOW!” Yasmine's screams flashed throughout the room.

The frightened Tania immediately ran out by holding her cheek which still felt sore from Yasmine's slap and after closing the door from outside Tania immediately wiped her tears that she had been holding back.

“How can the damned woman return, even without the slightest injury on her body when a little more..”.

“Brack.” Yasmine again threw a vase of flowers until it broke.

“This cannot be delayed any longer, I must immediately find the strength to sustain me. I must immediately make Queen Julitte take my side.”

“I will occupy the highest position, so that no one will dare to look down on me anymore. Everything you have I'll steal.”

“Yasmine!” Shouted Madam Amber after entering Yasmine's room which is now filled with broken glass because of Yasmine's bad habit of always breaking things if angry.

“Mother, what made you come to my room?”

“I heard Leathina did not die and returned safely to the kingdom, is that true?”

“True mom, Leathina has returned.”

“Mother warns you Yasmine, as long as the woman is alive you will always be second. You have to remember what it's like to be ignored and discarded for being second, you have to move fast Yasmine.”

“Good Mom, I understand.”

“Good if you understand, what the hell is your room.” Leathina muttered after seeing Yasmine's entire messy room and immediately came out leaving Yasmine alone.

“Fuck mom, at a time like this you should encourage me instead of dropping me.” Bump Yasmine after her mother left.

“And why can't I contact Roland again, does he ignore me when I have a lot of work for him now. Ah, that damn Roland killed a girl just can't how he can work as a hit man when his job is not so good.”

Yasmine walks up to her desk picking up a pen and paper and starts writing a letter to Roland to come see him soon after which Yasmine also writes a letter to send to the kingdom asking specifically for him to meet in person with queen.
