I'M A Villains In My Second Life
The Chapter 230

No one knew Leathina's return to the kingdom would bring good news or vice versa, from the brief information that Edward said that now the kingdom that looks peaceful turned boisterous inside because of the power of Leathina.

Each of the higher-ups in the work craved the power, even circulating rumors that Leathina magic can not only cure any disease but can also make someone return young and prolong one's life, he said, of course, even just a rumor will definitely attract attention.

The step finding someone who can use a healer with perfect what else if it can restore wrinkled skin to be tight again or even extend life, or even, all those who are greedy will definitely shrink to return young and long-lived.

“Haiss... basis greedy people!”  Leatina massaged her throbbing head from the pain.

“Is anyone sick?” Edward asked who had just entered Leathina's room and accidentally heard Leathina grumbling.

The two of them had crossed the royal border and passed the border wall both of them were now in the kingdom and were staying in an abandoned house on the outskirts of the city.

“Ah, Edward you're coming.”

Edward interrupted and smiled putting some groceries on the table and approached Leathina who was still grumbling by herself.

“Are you worried?”

Leatina shook her head then moved from her seat.

“Where are you?” Edward looked at Leathina.

“I'm thirsty ..”

“Shortly let me get you.” Edward pulled Leathina to sit back and then stood up to get Leathina a glass of water.

“But I can take it myself.”

“It's okay.”

Leathina relented, she sat back down with her eyes and then looked at the entire wooden house they were occupying now.

“You must be kidding when you say this is an empty house.”

“Why? No one is living, right?”

“I mean, this house must belong to one of your men right? If it is not sure yours, it is impossible if this is an abandoned house seen from wherever all the equipment is complete, no cobwebs even debupun no one stuck in the furniture.” Leathina with her blue eyes scanned the entire room closely without exception, looking like a detective looking for something she had to get to refute someone's alibi.

“Ah, as expected of the first daughter of Duke Yarnell.” Edward then laughed.

“You're really Leathina's jelly, I don't think you're thinking about this either, do you suspect I'm going to sell you to the bigwigs who want you?”

“Not only I I feel strange seeing you suddenly say there is an abandoned house in the suburbs.”

“Why is it impossible?”

“ There must be other uninhabited houses right?”

“This house is too neat to say abandoned house, Edward.”

“Iya well I relented, this is a stopover house for the group I lead but specifically for this house is mine so regularly to honor their leader, it is a stopover for the group I lead, they voluntarily took care of this place for me.”

“Well once.” Leathina's reply was brief.

“So aren't you afraid I'll sell you, instead of taking you home?”

“Why are you laughing?”

“Compared fear of being sold I'm more afraid you'll take me running and hold me somewhere to keep me for yourself, Edward.” Leathina went back to silence and looked at Edward in a way that made the two look at each other for a moment. “I know you're crazy about me now, don't you?” Leathinan challenged by continuing to look at Edward who also did not take his eyes off Leathina since earlier.

“Ah, yes I lost Lea. Where can I sell you to someone else, if it is necessary I will definitely save you for myself.” Edward sighed handing over a glass of water for Leathina to drink then rubbed her face rough.

Leathina laughed again, happy to see Edward bewildered by himself.

“Leathina you really.”

Edward did not finish his sentence he just looked at Leathina who now also looked at him with a triumphant smile, initially he intended to scare Leathina ai instead of making the red-haired girl afraid he instead imagined strange things in his head worrying if Leathina was really taken by the royal higher-ups.

“Leathina tell me the truth, your abilities don't have side effects?” Edward suddenly became serious making Leathina a little surprised because Edward suddenly tightly knitted his arms.

“Ah , of course there are. Aren't you also able to use magic you must know?” leathina replied in a joking tone because Leathina knew now that Edward was worried about her.

“Iya I know, but does it apply to you?”

“Umm maybe yes maybe not, how do you think Edward?” Leathina was still jokingly making Edward anxious with her.

“Leathina I beg you to answer honestly, so that I know how I can protect you.” Edward tightened his grip making Leathina a bit in pain.

“Akh, this Edward is sick.” Leathina forcibly removed Edward's arm, which gripped her arms, and Leathina knew that Edward was a little crazy, rude, and violent, and having an obsessive attitude with her, Leathina tried to keep a little distance with him but it seemed too late for Leathina to dodge.

“Ah, I'm sorry Lea. Does it hurt so much?” Edward returned to his rational mind and frantically examined Leathina's arm, which had turned blue because of him.

“I'm fine.”

Leathina turned her face away not wanting to dress up with Edward then played the glass that was still filled with water by turning it around slowly.

“You yourself know every magic has side effects if used excessively, you yourself already know and stop me when the dragon is rampaging in the kingdom right?”

Edward just nodded his ass, not daring to speak because he felt guilty for clutching Leathina's arm.

Leathina finally returned to see Edward while Edward continued to look at Leathina's arm which was scarred by his grip, seeing that Leathina felt sorry for seeing Edward like a puppy that was afraid of being left behind by its owner.

‘Hais, how can this guy be a cold-blooded killer with this puppy-like look.’ Inner Leathina then snorted resentfully because she suddenly felt guilty even though she had nothing wrong with Edward.

“I'm sorry.” Edward said that Leathina felt guilty again.

‘It's not fair how can I hate a dangerous person if his face is like that, this is really unfair.’ Leathina again snorted, unable to bear the sight of Edward who was now filled with guilt.

“It's okay this already doesn't hurt at all.”

“But it remains impregnated, moreover you cannot heal yourself even though you have such great strength, so let me know your weakness so that I can protect you Leathina.”

“Don't you already know everything, from the first time we met until now didn't you already know everything?”
