I'M A Villains In My Second Life
Chapter 12's

Now I feel a little more comfortable in these clothes, this dress is not too heavy and I can move around freely but I still have to wear a corset in it I have a bit of trouble breathing, but thanks to Anne for helping me dress.

Well now where I have to walk this mansion is very spacious, I don't remember where Duke Leonard's room is. If I had to walk straight, I forgot to ask Anne. I'll walk around later if I meet someone new I ask.

“Greetings Miss Leathina.”

“Uh?” who he is, he surprises me.

Who is this man, I cannot see his face because he is wearing a suit of armor but look at the posture of this man can be ascertained he is a knight or a soldier, he said, his voice sounded so strange what because he was inside the armor so his voice was a bit strange.

“Ah sorry to introduce me Winter la Pedro, I am the vice-chairman of the Yarnell family. We have never met before because I am always placed on guard at the royal border so no wonder if miss does not recognize me.”

Pedro's family? I seem to have heard his name, but I forgot to read it in which section. Ah yes I remember now, he was the son of Baron Adrian la Pedro, he was a secretary and a friend of Duke Leonard. He was now indeed only the vice-chairman of the Warriors of the Duke Leonard family but later on he would be given a new title of being a Knight due to his incredible achievement of having successfully killed a dragon that raged on the kingdom and saved many lives.

Well look at him, already pictured in my head that face of his handsome, that, I have never seen him in person but at least in the novel he says that he is also very handsome like the other four main male characters he is now not referred to in Yasmine's group of admirers but according to a spoiler of the next season's unreleased story after Yasmin was rescued and Leathina was executed Winter would often meet with Yasmine at a time when Winter would begin to put his heart on Yasmine's kindness and tenderness and that's where a new conflict occurs where the five men will kill each other for fighting over Yasmine's love. Uh if I think about it this isn't a romance story anymore but it turns to a tragic story and a murder.

“It's good to see you Mr. Pedro. I am Leathina Yarnell the eldest daughter of the Yarnell family.”

“Tida please just call me Winter, may I kiss your hand.”

“Oh course.” (while reaching out)

In this world you can only call someone's first name if you are already friends and if you have just met to respect each other, you should call her by her surname like Miss Yarnell or Mr. Pedro but why did he call me by my first name when he said that I had met him for the first time. In this world it has also become part of the tradition that a man will kiss a woman's hand to show her respect.

“You are not as people rumored.”

“You mean I am a wicked and heartless woman.”

“Oh that's not what I mean miss, I didn't mean to insinuate you but that's how I heard.”

“It's okay Mr. Pedro, anyways I'm used to it and indeed I'm not a good woman.”

“Ah yes I became a little awkward, Miss where would I control if allowed.”

Well good offer happens to be I'm looking for a way to Duke Leonard's workplace, nor can I possibly say that I don't know the way to get there. I mean what kind of host doesn't know his own household.

“Oh course , I want to go to Duke Leonard.” room

“Alright miss then let me take between.”

“Thank you Mr. Pedro.”

“I really didn't expect to meet Miss Leathina in person, it's an honor for me, and you are the same as the people said.”

“Oh you mean the nickname of the evil woman, yes it is true.”

“Oh no.. This time not that, it turns out you yourself do not know how people tell about miss Leathina.”

“So there were other rumors about me too, I didn't know I was so famous, so which story? I'm so curious.”

“So I feel a little strange, because this is the first time I've heard anything like that about me, I'll take it as a compliment from you Mr. Pedro.”

What's with this guy, is he paying attention to me. I already know that Leathina is indeed very beautiful but it is all covered by her behavior that is hated by people, in addition to giving the nickname "The Evil Woman" they even say other nicknames like “Evil from the Duke”. I didn't expect to hear it from Yasmine's potential fans.

“Winter. Call me Winter Miss Leathina.”

“Huh. I'm not used to disrespect you Mr. Pedro, I'm sorry we're not familiar enough to call each other first names.”

“Good. But I'm a little disappointed to hear Miss Leathina, like we've arrived.”

“Thank you Mr. Pedro for driving me.”

“Oh it's nothing, I hope at the next meeting Miss Leathina will call my name, then excuse me Miss Leathina."

“I hope also be like Mr. Pedro.”

I hope we won't see you again Mr. Winter la Pedro. I had to keep my distance from all of Yasmine's men, I didn't know until when she would behave like that but in the end she would become my enemy and want my death. I better not light a fire on the oil.

All right now I'm in front of Duke Leonard's office. I need to gather my courage first. It feels like just looking into Duke Leonard's eyes has cut half my age. Alright now I have to announce my whereabouts.

“Servant please tell Duke that I want to meet.”

“Good Miss Leathina.”

Leathina spoke to the guard in front of Mr. Doke Leonard's room. Upon hearing the Leathian's purpose the bodyguard immediately entered the room and not long after that the bodyguard who had entered came back and spoke to Leathina.

“You are welcome to enter Miss Leathina.”

“Ah yes well thank you.”

...

...

“Hey man! you heard that he just thanked me.”

“Maybe you misheard.”

“Really but I heard it earlier. But you saw earlier she was even prettier than flowers.”

“Hussis. Do not carelessly talk you, if he hears your chatty tongue can be cut later, have continued your work.”

The soldier who let Leathina in was very surprised and immediately told his friend who was also on guard nearby, after chatting with his friend the situation became quiet, they refocused on their respective work.

Uh I can hear you two know, I'm not too far from those two soldiers yet but I've heard rumors about me. Then I have to keep my attitude. Why did I say thank you, because of my habit in a long life where my mother taught me to say three words, "Thank you, Please and Sorry” are indeed three words are very simple but if spoken the meaning will be deeper. But I'm used to saying it and it's part of my habit, ah it's okay I say here that it's important I don't lower my pride. although there is actually a rule of the nobles who have unwritten ingrained with their lives here that the nobles should not apologize and bow their heads to those who are lower than the level nobility.
