I Became a Villain who Receives Obsession

66 – Rolled Stone (1)

chin-

The front door of the dormitory closed slowly, and a white-haired girl came out.

The gentle smile and innocent-looking face were already popular among the academy students.

17-year-old Elaine, who was noticeably young even among the students, was already being treated as a younger sister by many people due to her clumsy behavior befitting her age.

And this was even more so after the Mephisto incident.

“What are you doing? Princess?”

“Why is Miss Elaine here?”

A 17-year-old girl who is kind but ignorant of the world.

A kind-hearted child who doesn’t understand people’s dark emotions well.

The evaluation of Elaine in Reina’s mind was as follows.

Because she saw Elaine who did not give in and did not lose her smile among the nobles who were busy fighting each other, Reina greeted Elaine and had a conversation.

Perhaps, it is safe to say that Elaine was a closer friend than her classmates in the same class.

“Why did you come here, Princess?”

Nonetheless, Reina felt an unknown sense of incongruity with Elaine.

Unlike usual, when Elaine smiled brightly, she was looking at Reina with the corner of her mouth slightly raised.

Perhaps because of her mood, her bright eyes became cloudy and lost their luster, creating a different atmosphere from the previous Elaine.

Obviously, I asked the question first, but for some reason, I felt like I had to answer Elaine’s answer first.

Reina slowly opened her mouth.

“I haven’t seen him since the last fight with Mephisto, so I came to check. By the way, Miss Elaine was also there.”

“I’m here to take care of the Count.”

Reyna and she both knew that Rian was hurt.

‘But then Miss Elaine… .’

He also watched the girl in front of him heal Lian’s wounds.

As a result, looking at the state of Rian just before, he didn’t even look like an invalid.

So, what does Miss Elaine mean by still taking care of him?

“Is your wound still not healed?”

“The wounds healed, but there was a big fight. I think the Count still needs plenty of rest.”

“So you were nursing?”

“yes that’s right.”

Voice lower than before.

The ringing sound, like a jade marble, became calm and gave a calm feeling.

She doesn’t stutter as usual and makes eye contact with her directly, as if she’s become a different person, as anyone who’s ever seen her would feel.

Is it iron?

If you’re 17 years old, you’re still old enough.

Reina was thinking about whether Elaine, like herself, might have changed due to something.

“Well, so the business is… ?”

Elaine held the doorknob and spoke. It was a word that showed the will to finish quickly.

Looking at her asking with only her upper body sticking out of the door as if it were about to close at any moment, Reina felt uncomfortable.

It’s not about Elaine’s attitude. She’s here to nurse Rian, and she’s dealing with herself on his behalf.

It was just that I was uncomfortable with feeling this way for a 17-year-old.

yes.

She’s just doing what she used to do.

To watch over him and be with him.

Reina now is just an outsider to them.

They are just unexpected guests.

“… I checked the appearance, so I think it’s done now. I’ll just go back.”

Ignoring the constant throbbing pain, Rayna turned her back.

Now that she is a stranger, there is no place for her to dig into anymore.

It’s frustrating, but Elaine will perfectly replace her.

Although she was not a noble, she was not someone who would care about this, so she wouldn’t be a big obstacle.

I press the button on the elevator, the door closes and I slowly start going down.

‘Are you angry?’

Why did you think I was angry?

“ah… .”

again

His long fingernails dug into his palms and cut them.

It seems that the power has been put in without knowing it.

My body has been strange lately.

Whenever I was involved with him, I felt like my heart wasn’t mine.

To be precise, it was after the engagement with Lian was broken.

I don’t regret breaking my engagement with him. Because this was what she had longed for.

Being engaged to a family with no future was like shame for a noble.

This was a fatal flaw for the Eisteen family, which was growing into a prestigious family.

The owner of the house, Leonard, also knew this, so he urged him to break his engagement with Lian from a long time ago.

However, the engagement letter with the seals of the families could not be invalidated without the consent of the two families, and since it was very effective in itself, Lian had been using this as an excuse to make outrageous demands to the Aistin family.

Not only the money, but also the knights who will pursue the people who fled the territory, and the high-class workers for the luxurious mansion.

Leonard has been courting him with all his heart so that his heart, which he says is his last request, will not change.

It was because he maintained the county rank and was the head of a family anyway.

Only when he agreed to break off the engagement could his daughter be free.

It was a good situation for Reina now that she had nothing to do with him.

“Ms. Iceteen?”

“… Siegfried?”

Siegfried’s voice caught Reina, who had been walking on the floor for a while.

Looking around, I had arrived at the resting area prepared on the central bridge.

“Were you with me too?”

“It’s frustrating because I can’t go out. Even if you look like this, you’re an active person hahahaha.”

“okay.”

Reina, who answered dryly, turned around and tried to go back, but Siegfried stopped and asked.

“By the way, where is Miss Aisten going? That’s the men’s dormitory… .”

“I just went there because I had something to do.”

“Oh, I see. Maybe Altean… Aha.”

Siegfried, who noticed the change in Reina’s expression for a moment, blurted out his words as if he had guessed.

Why are you so interested in other people’s affairs?

For some reason, Reina distanced herself from Siegfried.

“Are you done with business? Then I will go now.”

“Has anyone else been there?”

“Yes?”

“no. It was because Miss Aisten kept having a bad expression. I wonder if something happened.”

“There was nothing.”

Siegfried did not back down even though he blatantly disliked it.

“Has Miss Elaine gone?”

“… .”

“Actually, I met Miss Elaine earlier. They told me to go to the boys’ dormitory, so I wanted to go to Altane-kun’s room.”

Why are you so interested in other people’s affairs?

He’s a man with a lot of arrogance.

“What do you mean?”

Looking at Siegfried who was talking excitedly, Reina raised her voice without realizing it.

Her smile and ignorance were similar to those of the aristocrats visiting Leonard at her mansion.

A person with a bad mood who does not reveal his/her inner self and sees the other person’s inner self.

It was also the kind of human she disliked.

Reina’s cool eyes met Siegfried’s.

‘It’s the same.’

Looking at the jet-black aura that slowly flowed out, Reina closed her eyes.

The same color as I saw in him before.

That it is maintained despite the passage of time.

Reina, who was accustomed to judging others only with her inner eye, always approached this carefully.

Even if it is a person with black aura, there are cases where the nature is different, as in the case of Lian.

That’s why Reina had put off her evaluation of Siegfried until now.

“hahahaha. I had no other intentions. It’s just pure curiosity.”

“Then I think it would be best if you don’t mind.”

“Ugh. Could it be? By the way, is there a promise behind Miss Aisten?”

Reina, who stepped away from Siegfried who approached with a smirk, shook her head and refused the approach.

As expected to some extent, Siegfried’s expression did not change noticeably.

“Ugh. so? The instructor told me to bring Miss Aistin… .”

“Are you the instructor?”

“yes. Instructor Bella asked me to stop by the lab when I had free time.”

A few days after classes are suspended.

It was clear that the call from Bella, her instructor, was related to the class.

After the incident with Mephisto, Bella treated Reina as the representative of her class.

Most of the announcements related to the academy or classes were told to Reina, and then she spread them.

It wasn’t that a separate representative was chosen, but it was Raina who was secretly recognized as the unofficial representative.

“… Then I’ll let you go.”

“hahahaha, then did I convey it properly?”

Siegfried smiled and headed to the men’s dormitory.

In the end, I must have approached to say this.

You shouldn’t judge people only with your mind’s eye, but for some reason, Siegfried was a reluctant opponent for Reina.

Seeing him getting along well with the classmates, it might be an overreaction on the part of Rey or herself, but it was clear that he was a difficult person to get close to.

It was a feeling that I had never felt even in Lian, who had a bad personality.

‘… It’s nothing to worry about now.’

First of all, we need to know why Bella called.

Raina went straight to Bella’s lab.
