The Villainess and Modern Weapons
Chapter 23 Why?

Cip chip.

Shaaa.

The wind was blowing medium, the sound of birds sounding melodious. The sun was just above and shining, indicating it was now exactly noon.

In a large and magnificent mansion, a woman is busy taking care of her work in managing the budget and needs of the residence she lived in.

Tok.

The Duchess of Edinburgh glanced towards the door and then opened her voice.

"Hm? who?."

"Mrs, it's me Sebastian. I came to report something."

Sebastian, the butler of the Duke of Edinburgh residence. He had long worked alongside the Duke and Duchess masters, since childhood he had been trained and taught many ways of being a deft and perfect butler. His skill in dealing with problems deserves a thumbs up. His loyalty to Edinburgh cannot be doubted.

"Ahh Sebastian, come in."

Clamps.

The door opened, Sebastian stepped in and bowed.

"Madam, there's a bill coming from the 'Loveris cake' cake shop in Router village." Sebastian said politely.

"Cake shop bill? router Village??."

After Sebastian reports the bill from the Duchess's 'Loveris cake' cake shop seems confused.

"Yes madam. All of his bills totaled 70 silver coins." Sebastian calmly passed the bill to the Duchess.

"Wait Sebastian. Who's been shopping from this cake shop??." The Duchess looked surprised.

Because he was not surprised because of the amount of the bill but because the Duchess had a feeling that her daughter was the person who shopped the cake. She could not believe that her daughter was disputing and left alone again after the same incident one year ago.

"Madam, this bill comes from the placard of her personal servant young lady. Lilies."

'Her personal servant Sherlin?. Is my daughter going alone again right now??.' Inner Duchess Edinburgh's worried.

"Sebastian, go check Sherlin's room. If he's not in his room look elsewhere. And take her to my room." The duchess gave the order with a firm face.

"Good mistress."

Sebastian nodded and bowed and left.

"Huufftt."

The Duchess let out a long sigh and walked towards the large window behind her.

"My daughter, again you....Huhhhh..." Duchess Gumam.

...----------------...

Tap tap tap.

Sebastian walked rather quickly, the sound of his footsteps sounding quite loud.

'Young lady, she is active every day. Hmm can't wait to see her grow up.' Sebastian's inner self with a faint smile.

After a few minutes, Sebastian finally reaches Sherlin's room.

Tok.

"....."

Silence has no answer at all.

Sebastian knocked on the door and spoke.

"Young lady, this is me Sebastian. Can I come in?."

"......."

There was no answer in Sherlin's room. Sebastian is silent for a while, and Sebastian opens the door to Sherlin's room.

Creetical.

"Miss?."

Sebastian looks around Sherlin's room and searches for her current whereabouts.

"....There is no yes.." Sebastian Mumbled.

Taps.

Sebastian turns around and intends to leave Sherlin's room.

Clamps.

Door tightly closed. In the middle of Sherlin's room, a vortex of wind appeared and slowly the silhouettes of Sherlin and the others were seen.

Wushhh.

Brucks.

'Akhhhh is tired!! Delaying the teleportation process was draining a lot of my energy!. Luckily Sebastian didn't see us. Why did Sebastian come to my room? Is there a problem??.' Inner Sherlin was both relieved and confused.

'Oh my goodness! I'm sure mom realized that. Huh good thing I was on time otherwise there could be a problem.'

"Miss! The butler just walked into the lady's room. Is he going to report to madam if we leave without permission!?." Lili worriedly asked.

"Eum. Like he is. But, take it easy, Lili." Sherlin held one of Lili's hands.

"N-miss..."

Gloxinia and Felix looked at each other and nodded their heads together.

Sherlin glanced at Gloxinia and Felix then smiled meaningfully.

'You two understand, right?.' Sherlin speaks by telepathy on Gloxinia and Felix.

'certain.' Reply both.

"Hehe! Let's do it right away!." Sherlin clenched her hands and punched upwards.

...----------------...

"Slurpp..."

"Hmmm, it's coming..."

Tap tap tap.

Sebastian descends the stairs and intends to go to the front yard of the mansion to find Sherlin.

'Typically young lady will relax in the garden gazebo.' Inner Sebastian.

Sebastian is convinced that his young lady must be relaxing in the garden gazebo. She wasn't in the room then what other place could her young lady possibly go to besides the gazebo??.

Surely there isn't. Only the gazebo is likely her biggest.

Sebastian very well memorized the attitude and habits of this master.

"Hee?? has he? guess not! u know? that rancid boy is two-faced and favoritism!." - Felix

"Huh!? what the fuck is you Felix!!." -Sherlin

"Felix, that's not true at all! miss is very humble, not arrogant and diligent in saving! it is impossible to be two-faced and favoritist." - Gloxinia

"Yes very right! Gloxinia you are the best." - Sherlin

"( ⁇ )" - Gloxinia

"-_-" - Felix

'Haven't! just said it happened back!.'

'Huh!? Sebastian is getting close!.' Inner Sherlin was shocked

"You two. Get ready!."

"Yes!."

Sherlin calmly drank her juice, while Gloxinia and Lili stood to the right and left of Sherlin firmly.

Sebastian looked towards the gazebo where Sherlin was.

Taps.

"Greetings young lady. Madam told you to come to her room." Sebastian bent his body.

'Eh?? Hmm this must be because I just handed over my cake purchase bill. I'm ready anyway hehe! Wherever possible

"Ahh.yeah, I'll hurry soon." Sherlin was calm.

"Let's miss..."

"Yes." Yeah."

"Lili, Nia, you guys go back first."

Sherlin blinked her right eye.

"Well miss." Reply both.

......................

Tok.

"Madam, I've brought the young lady."

"Ahh come in."

Clamps.

"Good day mother." Sherlin greeted gracefully, lifting the tip of her skirt.

"Yes my daughter." The Duchess nodded and glanced at Sebastian.

"Sebastian, you go out first."

"Good mistress."

Kriet.

"So what did you call me on this beautiful day??." Sherlin said so.

"Huh.... Sherlin, how could you not know the reason why mom called you here. Don't pretend you don't know." The Duchess stared intently at Sherlin.

Sherlin smiled forcefully and laughed awkwardly while glancing the other way avoiding her mother's sharp gaze.

"Aahaha..."

"Huh.... My daughter, mother received a report from Sebastian, you're out shopping for cookies aren't you?." The duchess asked softly.

"Eum. Right mom." Sherlin replied calmly.

"So, you intervene immediately go buy the cake or....

"only Lili went to buy it for you?."

The Duchess with her gentle gaze looked at Sherlin intensely.

Sherlin stared directly at the Duchess's iris who threw that gentle gaze. He's nodding.

The Duchess who saw the answer from her daughter let out a sigh of relief.

"God....."

"Thank God.mom thought you were denying your words at that time." The duchess smiled broadly.

"???." Sherlin tilted her head and looked at her mother with a puzzled expression.

The Duchess chuckled to see Sherlin's reaction, if she was confused her daughter looked so cute.

"It's nothing. Forget it." With a squash the Duchess rubbed the top of Sherlin's head.

"Mother!."

"My hair will fall apart." Sherlin scowledly covered her head with both hands.

"Hoho~ happy~."

Elsewhere in the middle of the night~

A boy was daydreaming on the balcony of his room by propping up his chin with his right hand on the balcony railing. The flashing of his eyes implied a longing. She was wearing a thin nightgown, her hair was a mess. The moon shone brightly, the boy's hair and irises shining in the light of the moon.

"Hmmmm.... about later the tomato will give me what gift??."

"Aahk I'm impatient, four days feels like a long time....

"Do I have to advance the show?. But.. It looks like I'll be angry later."

Yep. We can tell that the boy is the carrot aka Robert because he had said the word 'tomato' which was definitely aimed at Sherlin.

"Uhh. Because thinking about him keeps me so I can't sleep well." Robert puffed his cheeks.

"Basic tomatoes suck!."

"Ha-hachuu!!!."

"Ugh is anyone trying to bully me??." Sherlin Mumbled.

Felix woke up from his sleep and glanced at Sherlin who had sneezed.

"What's the boy?."

"Something seems to be talking to me Felix!." Sherlin replied in annoyance.

"Hm? huh. I thought what. It's better to just sleep." Felix snorted and closed his eyes again.

Sherlin opened her eyes, she pulled back her blanket and continued her disturbed sleep.

"Tsk, basic!."

The night is over, and morning is coming

Cip chip.

As always there is a bird present and also perfect this beautiful morning.

Clamps.

Lili opened Sherlin's room door. He entered the room with Nia behind him.

"Miss time to wake up." Lili flicked away the blanket Sherlin was wearing.

Sherlin squirmed and yawned.

"Hoam.."

"Miss. Let's get up soon. It's morning." Nia persuades Sherlin to wake up.

"Hoamm..."

"Let's miss, I'll help you to take a shower."

"Hmm."

S

After taking a bath, Sherlin wears her clothes with help from Lili and Nia. The clothes worn by Sherlin were modelled on a skirt with a dark blue ribbon beside her.

"It's over, miss." Lili and Nia at the same time.

"Yes..."

"Let's go, I'll take you to the dining room." Lili smiled.

Sherlin nodded her head in agreement.

Tap tap tap.

Creett.

"Good morning, mom." Sherlin greeted gracefully.

"Yes, good morning to Sherlin." The duchess smiled gently.

The Duke simply nodded with a faint smile. Sherlin sat down in her chair and started eating her food.

After breakfast ended as usual they took the time to chat harmoniously.

Talking after a meal has become a tradition in Edinburgh, it aims to improve harmony between families.

Lioness, the founder of the Edinburgh family was someone who put the family and peace lovers so he deliberately grew this tradition to all his descendants so that later in the future there will be no tragedy of hostility in the family and tranquility in this Edinburgh residence stay awake. So, in the history of Edinburgh there is no such thing as a claim for inheritance or a scheme to harm relatives or families. They all get along with the others.

Every descendant of Edinburgh married, they deliberately only have one child because it has the same purpose as the Lioness tradition is to avoid the claim of inheritance rights.

The history of the Edinburgh family is very smooth and smooth. There was not the slightest bloodshed.

Sherlin who knew of this tradition became very confused. Sherlina's family is very harmonious and happy, but why does she always pursue the love of the crown prince??

He can live happily with his family. If he really wants to have a lover, his family will definitely find him a good candidate. And it will surely be better than the crown prince.

'I still don't understand... Why did this happen?? there is no explanation why this Sherlina loves the crown prince so much?.'

'Is this just for the refinement of the love story of the female lead protagonist and the male lead protagonist?.'

'Tsk, if it is true that the author of this novel has no heart! How could this perfect Sherlina end up tragically acting as a complement to the story? that's not fair.'
