The Villainess and Modern Weapons
Chapter 26 Because you are different

ROBERT POV

The residence of Duke Zekallion, during his day.

The weather today was pretty good, not too hot. I was quite comfortable with this place, birds chirping, shiny lakes exposed to sunlight, and shady trees added to my sleep comfort. Right now I'm lying on the grass in the garden behind my house. This is my favorite place, the atmosphere here is very calming.

Currently there are so many servants who are busy preparing my party preparations for tomorrow, I have seen them pass by several times.

4 Days. I didn't see him. I don't know what's wrong with me! Every time I sleep, not even every time I think about him.

She's not like most noble girls I know. She wasn't spoiled, didn't try to attract my attention, and didn't care about makeup or anything like that. He's different....

So different, to make me curious about him, is he like that because he has the same status as me? but.it may not be true. When I first met her in the Silence forest hunt, I said some scathing words to her and her reaction turned with my guess. Though every time I talk about those annoying girls, they must be immediately teary and crying and then just run away.

Well I don't care about them. After all they are not sincere to me, they only see my status as Duke's heir only Cih! you lickers!. And by maintaining this attitude, it will not happen again. All my blunt and disrespectful behavior is a form of my self-defense. I do it all to take care of myself and my family.

I know this is wrong. I know my words hurt other people's feelings. But, it was worth it with people who licked people higher than him to achieve his goals. All my words can become enlightened and awaken those loathsome sycophants. But if it remains unchanged then for sure the person is very brengs*k.

Tskkk! my habit of cursing is getting worse and worse. I had to hold back this time, because now I have a friend. I don't want to look pathetic in front of him!.

I wonder, what is he doing right now?. What will he give me tomorrow?

ahkk! I can't wait. I want to have a happy birthday and open a gift from her for the first time. Can it?

But, I don't think it's possible to think the distance between my residence and the Edinburgh residence is very far.

But there must be a way, right? huh! I'm not just gonna give up. I'll think of a way later. Now that I have to choose the right clothes to wear tomorrow, I will leave her fascinated with my beauty! Heh just wait for the tomato boy.

Author POV.

On the other hand, the residence of Edinburgh.

Sherlin is currently having tea with Penelope and Felix. The three of them were in the garden gazebo that Sherlin usually made a place for tongkrongan. It seems like resting in this garden gazebo has become part of Sherlin's own habits.

"Slurpp, hey Sherlin.tomorrow you will go to the party of young Duke Zekallion right?." Sherlin glanced at Penelope who was asking that.

Sherlin nodded, "Sure."

"Whoah! a good! I can meet you later at hehe's party. I thought you weren't coming." With a small chuckle The caller spoke.

Sherlin who saw Penelope's absurd behavior only shook her head with a faint smile.

A moment later Penelope asked again.

"Have you prepared the gift?."

"Hm, I've."

"What gift would you give?."

"A button cuff..."

"That's great..."

"....."

Sherlin looked at Penelope. He was pensive, like he was thinking about what to talk about again. Penelope kept asking Sherlin non-stop, she felt a little uncomfortable.

'Hm? stopped already? I can finally have tea in peace.' Inner Sherlin relieved.

Penelope like her is out of her mind to make a new topic of conversation. He's clearing slowly.

"Ekhem....Sherlin, I'm going home. I have something to work on." Penelope looked awkwardly at Sherlin.

Sherlin returned Penelope's gaze with a gentle look. He will finally come home.

"Of course, I'll take you to the front."

Penelope nodded, Sherlin held Felix and they walked towards the front yard.

The drap drap.

Arriving on the front page.

"See you, Pene. Be careful on the road." Sherlin waved her hand.

"Yes, see you Sherlin! We'll meet again at the party tomorrow!." Penelope said loudly.

Sherlin nodded her head.

Felix opened his mouth. "So she's gone too."

"Yes...."

"Huh! it's exhausting to listen to him babble continuously." Felix grunting.

"Yes, I admit that he's a little annoying sometimes, but he's a good friend." Sherlin stared at the departure of Penelope's horse carriage warmly.

"Let's go in Felix."

"Hm."

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

The wind blew, the sky slowly turned dark. The flaming stars dotting the dark sky look very contrasting.

The curtains were blown by the wind, the temperature inside the room became cold. Sherlin hugged her knees, she wrapped her body in a thick blanket.

'This night is so cold!!!.' Sherlin screamed in her heart.

He turned to Felix who remained calm asleep on the sofa. She looks fine. Is it because of the fur?.

Yeah, it seems like it. Its thick fur looks very warm. Heh! Sherlin also wears thick pajamas! Why does it still feel cold?.

Sherlin was annoyed, was she the only one who was cold here!?. Even though the fireplace and the heater in his room had been lit but why was it still cold!?. Is he sensitive to cold temperatures??. Most likely it's true. He just wanted to sleep well, this cold temperature was disrupting his sleep.

Ahah!

Then what if he made magic taught by teacher Fernand. Warming magic, an aura where a fire is lit around a specific limb to warm the body.

Sherlin closed her eyes, she focused on imagining an aura where the flames were warm.

Spring

Wush.

A flash of orange-colored light appeared on Sherlin's palm.

"Fyuhh~ finally it's not too cold." Sherlin rubbed her palms.

The night was getting late, Sherlin fell asleep with a pose tilted to the right. The blanket she wore wrapped her body perfectly, well of course except for her face.

Wush.

A shadow is cast. The shadow moved past the standing guard kstaria very quickly, almost invisible.

Taps.

The shadow stopped in front of Sherlin's balcony.

Hufftt~, the shadow sighed.

Tok.

The shadow knocked on Sherlin's balcony door.

"......"

There was no answer, he knocked the door even harder.

TOK.

"......."

'Huh! I'll come back knocking.'

TOK TOK!.

"......"

TOK TOK TOK TOKKKK!!!!

Ee.. it seems like it's not just knocking but banging on the door.

Sherlin frowned. Again there is a sleep barrier!!!.

'Why!? why are there always bullies!? I just want to sleep well!!.' Inner Sherlin was upset.

The drap drap.

Sherlin got off her bed and walked while stomping her feet.

Chequek.

Sherlin opened the door rudely.

"What's up!?!?." Sherlin asked without seeing who knocked on her door.

"Huh! you finally opened this door! I waited a long time. Hmph!."

'Eh? I am familiar with this voice... lest-don't...this.....the carrot boy!?.'

"You-you! what are you doing here!?." Sherlin asked annoyedly.

"I? I want to take you somewhere amazing." Robert turned his eyes away.

"Ha!?. It's the night I don't want to." Reject Sherlin coldly. Sherlin had intended to close the door and leave.

Robert looked surprised. He's blocking one of Sherlin's hands.

"What else?."

"Come tomatoes!."

"Said no yes no."

"Ugh....umm please~."

"T.I.D.A.K."

Tsk, Robert clucked.

He looks moody. Sherlin tried to ignore Robert's facial expression.

'Hold 'em! no let-up!!.'

Robert increasingly made a pitiful and persecuted expression, as a result of which Sherlin's defense began to weaken.

'Ugh! that's right!.'

Robert's eyes began to tear, he bit his lips. Sherlin who saw this amazing sight in front of her instantly cried out inwardly.

'Aaakkkk!!! I can't stand it!.'

"Hufftt~ okay." Sherlin sighed.

Sherlin easily collapsed with such a look. His face was tamvan with a pitiful expression.His damage was limitless!.

Robert looked. He looked at Sherlin with a sparkle.

"Then come on!."

Suddenly Robert carried Sherlin behind his back.

"H-hey! tungg–."

Wush. The two of them darted fiercely onto the roof and the trees.

S

K

I

P.

After a long time jumping and jumping here and there, the two of them finally reached the garden behind the Duke Zekallion residence.

Taps.

Sherlin went down and fell on the grass.

"Geek!!."

"You-you! you fucking carrot boy*n!. We can leave with my teleportation!. You're acting really good! jump around like a monkey." Sherlin spoke with a curse directed at Robert.

"Hoekkk!!."

"Ughh! you are the weak! it's just this way already."

Sherlin stared at Robert. While the one being stared at was just quietly while staring at the lake.

"So..this is where you mean?."

"It's pretty beautiful. Your taste is not bad either." Sherlin said while looking at the scenery around the lake.

The clear lake that is exposed to moonlight makes this lake look more beautiful. The reflection of moonlight exposed to water makes the light around the lake not too dark. Manicured green grass, lush and lush trees add to the tranquility in this park. And also the twinkling of stars makes anyone who sees it become comfortable and calm.

Sherlin turned to Robert who was sitting sweetly on the grass. He asked Robert curiously "What was your purpose in bringing me here carrots??."

Robert blushed, even to the point that his ears were blushing as well. He was silent for a moment before answering Sherlin's question.

"I-i....

"Th.eummm....

"??."

Sherlin tries to be patient, she knows that this other friend is tsundere, more than Felix.

"Tell me honestly, I won't be angry this time."

Robert silently glanced towards Sherlin. It seemed like he was being extremely nervous, it was evident with his hands that looked cold sweaty.

"I...a-i.I.I want to get a wordsoo manyyearsfrom you!!!." With a very fast tempo and loud Robert shouted right in front of Sherlin.

"You......"

Sherlin was shocked she did not expect that Robert would yell like that at her.

'He even took pains to come to my room..Huh! he's willing to interrupt my sleep just for this?.'

"Why?." Ask Sherlin.

"Because you're different."

Sherlin was confused and then she smiled faintly, "You are. alright, then happy birthday Robert."

It was exactly midnight. Sherlin, the first person to congratulate Robert.

Robert did not expect that Sherlin would say that so easily when he thought for sure Sherlin would taunt him or insult his childishness.

'I was expecting. I'm.. lucky.' Inner Robert was happy.
