I'M A Villains In My Second Life
The Chapter 244

Long they were silent no one started the conversation, Duke Leonard even sighed many times tired of seeing all of them who until now did not want to open their mouths.

‘My daughter Leathina hasn't even been a day back but people are already fussing about her when she's done nothing to disturb others, there's only these guys.’ Inner Duke Leonard was a little annoyed that his morning was interrupted by their arrival, he was also worried that his daughter would be distracted due to an uninvited guest.

“So what made you come to our residence especially you prince Edward and lord Zeyden, ah even Aelfric also came apparently.”

They looked at each other, still reluctant to speak.

“If it is true that this is about my daughter then say, I know that you all care a lot about my daughter Leathina.” Again the connection is convincing.

Winter looked at Duke Leonard hesitantly, but there was no sign of him telling her about his report in front of the outsiders in the room they were in.

“I permission to report lord duke Leonard.” Winter started the conversation.

“Say.” Answer Duke Leonard.

“Nona Leathina is in Duke's kingdom, our search team found her I even saw her but Miss Leathina was taken away by unknown people, she said, Zeyden and Aelfric also saw it but we couldn't trace their tracks.”

Zeyden and Aelfric nodded in agreement.

“I will help the search team if my help is needed Duke, but it seems my help is indeed very necessary because what brings Leathina is a dangerous group of criminals they are shadow soldiers.” Zeyden said offering help.

“Thank you Mr. Zeyden.” Duke Leonard said thank you.

“Ah! You are so kind Mr. Zeyden, I am so curious since when do you care so much about Miss Leathina but unfortunately your help may not be needed anymore.” Prince Edward said with a friendly smile but his smile even made Zeyden dislike and made Aelfric creeps.

“What do you mean?” Zeyden asked a little provoked his emotions felt underestimated by Prince Edward.

“Please read Duke Leonard, this letter was sent last night to me.” Edward handed a piece of paper with a small memo to duke Leonard.

It is written that Leathina has been found and will be sent back soon with a secret sign under the message.

“What does Duke Leonard mean?” zeyden asked in surprise, recognizing that the sign belonged to the shadow army.

“Your suspect is right Mr. Zeyden, here is a message from the shadow army guild chief I hired his services to find and ask to bring home my daughter Leathina.” Duke leonard said bluntly.

“Nothing is wrong is not?” ask Edward to Zeyden. “That's wrong if the lord duke leonard hired their services to kill or kidnap, the duke just asked them to look for the man and it's his missing daughter, he said, it seems that the villain guild you mean is more talented than the hundreds of warriors deployed to search for a girl.” Edward said with great emphasis.

“Thank you then, the important safety of Miss Leathina takes precedence.” Said Winter who was not even surprised like Zeyden and instead grateful because leathina had even been found.

“So when will Miss Leathina be reunited uncle?” ask Winter's happy.

“It….

AAAaa………!

Just about to answer Winter's question suddenly came a screaming voice from Leathina's room, the shocked Duke Leonard immediately left his guest and half ran towards Leathina's room followed by Edward who also looked very panicked while Winter, Zeyden and Aelfric tailed behind them.

…

Anne was confused to see Nicholas and Nora panic at the same time, not knowing what made the two young masters so panicked and scared.

“What is missing young master?” anne asked while helping to search the floor.

Anne who heard it was immediately stunned to think whether her young master's brain was still sane or not, she was also at a loss on how to answer Nicholas' question just now.

“You didn't see my sister Leathina?” nora asked again, while Anne was getting confused.

“Ma-sorry sir, but Miss Leathina is still not back.” Anne hesitated and was sad to see Nicholas and Nora want Leathina back until they both delirious together.

“This you, my sister Leathina it..”

“Ugh...”.

Just now Nora was about to tell Anne suddenly heard a voice from the direction of the sofa, from under the blanket cloth looks someone wriggling there.

“It's still early in the morning, why scream anyway.” Murmured Leathina then sat down lazily while trying to collect her consciousness because she was still sleepy.

“Ah! Sister.” Nora was relieved when she saw the red-haired woman.

“You're there apparently.” Chirps Nicholas who also felt very relieved because last night was not his dream.

Anne was stunned several times to open her eyes even to the point of pinching her own cheek.

“True her sister Leathina.” Nicholas made it clear to Anne who was still confused.

Anne was unable to speak, her body trembled and even dropped the blanket that she had been carrying around with her, her lips tightly clenched and held back her tears which she seemed to have been difficult to hold.

Anne tried to make sense of the situation until her brain was full and her consciousness regained then reflexively she shouted in excitement

“AAAaaaa.....!” Shouted Anne in shock then stormed Leathina who was still half conscious.

Anne eagerly hugged Leathina tightly until her tears could no longer bear, with a sigh of Anne attacking Leathina with questions overwhelmed and dizzy the newly awakened Leathina.

“This is really Miss Leathina? Nonaku? Leathina Yarnell's? When is the lady back? How could you leave so long?” oh no! Is miss hurt? Is miss okay? Did miss eat well?” the consecutive questions kept coming out of Anne's mouth made Leathina overwhelmed to answer her because Anne did not give her the opportunity to answer the questions she asked for her.

BRAKKK!!!

Suddenly the door was pushed hard followed by the appearance of duke leonard and his sword that was ready to slaughter made everyone shocked especially Leathina.

“What's up? Are you okay Leathina?” tanyanya panic.

“What happened?” edward asked the newly arrived but his eyes were stunned when he saw Leathina still in her nightgown.

“What happened?” after Winter and the others.

Prince Edward did not answer with long steps he approached Leathina and immediately covered Leathina with a blanket now Leathina even had difficulty breathing because of Edward's actions.

“N-miss Leathina?!” Winter stuttered as he saw the woman he was so desperately looking for was right in front of him.

Just like Winter's reaction, Zeyden was also a little shaken when he saw Leathina had returned safely he did not even know that the people he had been chasing all night had actually run away to duke Leonard's house.

“Leathina!” exclaimed Aelfric jubilant intend to run hugging Leathina but fell due to tripping legs Nicholas who deliberately long Nicholas right so that Aelfric stumbled because he did not want his brother hugged people.
