A Terminally Ill Villainess Refuses To Be Adopted - Chapter 22

I straightened my wrinkled face and said to my obnoxious friend.

“You don’t know what a Dalgona Cookie is, do you?”

“…you expression is offensive.”

“You don’t know.”

Let’s change the subject.

Looking at him with warm eyes, Raven threw back dissatisfied eyes.

It was like a baby tiger.

‘Only the eyes thought.’

I mean, it wasn’t scary at all.

I snorted and took out a small iron tool like a ladle I had borrowed.

“Look carefully.”

I put about three tablespoons of sugar in the ladle part of the iron tool.

I’ve done it before, so it’ll probably work.

‘It’s a pity that there is no shaped frame.’

The pot was lowered to the top of the magic furnace, and the fire was turned on the weakest.

The fact that it does not cost money for a brazier even in a cold region was outstanding welfare…

While I was thinking about it, the sugar in the head of the ladle melted. I immediately added baking soda and stirred again.

The scent of dalgona was already coming out.

As the inside of the ladle began to take on a light brown color, Raven gradually got more curious.

With serious and focused eyes, Raven asked.

“What is this?”

“Dalgona.”

“Why that name?”

“Are you a question robot?”

“What is that?”

“Nothing, forget it. Dalgona means sweet.”

“Hmm.”

Stir without fire, then bring it back to the fire and stir again.

“Now put the pan on the stove.”

“Yes.”

“Give me some oil.”

Unfortunately, I had to make it with olive oil.

And after a while, the swollen liquid in the ladle was poured under the oiled pan.

“What are you doing now?”

I burst out laughing.

“Um, 10 seconds? No, just wait for 20 seconds.”

“And?”

“I will squeeze it.”

“And?”

“I will feed you.”

As I spoke with a mischievously evil look, Raven looked at me with cold eyes. I fixed my expression and stared at the dalgona because I felt a little guilty, and there was a sound of laughter next to me.

When I looked back, Raven was looking at the dalgona with a serious face as if he did nothing.

“That’s cheap.”

This time, he laughed while I was looking at him.

The corners of the mouth that beautifully curled up and the golden eyes that naturally bend.

There was only one laugh, but the smile lasted a long time. I laughed along, then seriously raised the ladle.

And then, I pressed the dalgona.

“The end!”

Thus, the hotcake-shaped dalgona cookie was completed. Raven looked at it with curious eyes and asked.

“Can you really eat this?”

“I can eat it all by myself.”

“……Sorry.”

Is he faster to apologize now?

I smiled as if it was okay and broke the dalgona cookie, which had just cooled, in half.

“……”

“……”

I definitely cut it in half, but one side seemed to be about a quarter. Since this was a gift of apology, I gave the three-quarters-sized piece with a sullen face.

Raven made a smiling face and looked at it, then looked at my expression and laughed again, but contrary to the mood, he quickly whisked away the big piece without a second thought.

‘Somehow it’s a little of a bummer.’

Didn’t he feel a little deceitful just now?

Before Raven puts his piece in his mouth, I ate mine first.

I was unknowingly happy with the soft breaking sugar snack. As I closed my eyes and made an ecstatic expression, Raven blinked and put it in his mouth.

And.

I swear it was the first time I’d seen Raven with such an expression.

“Wow.”

His eyes were wide open and twinkling.

Surprise, joy, and appreciation of something ‘delicious!’ seemed to pour out. I was proud to see him staring at the dalgona cookie with sparkling eyes without even smiling.

“As expected, sweets make people happy.”

“Evelyn.”

“Yes?”

“Let’s eat more.”

“Good!”

I brought enough to make 10 dalgona cookies!

We did so and ten sweet cookies were made without failure. The backing soda was a little lacking at the end, but even the slightly blackened cookie had Raven in wonder.

I giggled at that, then when I received Raven’s angry gaze, I feigned innocence and picked up all the dalgona I had made.

“Let’s go eat outside.”

I feel in a good mood.

This was not all I had prepared for my apology.

‘Because a star-filled night was the best way to set the mood without spending money.’

There was a rock in front of us.

Raven naturally raised the corners of his lips as he followed me.

On the other hand, there was a person who noticed the unusual atmosphere between the two of them.

It was Sera.

“There’s something there.”

After splendidly losing to Evelyn the last time, Sera was sure of one thing.

Evelyn was still nasty, still pretty, a little less angry, and instead became a little scarier in return. She also thought that the black-haired boy was the reason for that subtle change.

But.

“No. It’s not possible with that wench’s personality.”

Rather, it could be said that something changed after her grandmother passed away. Not long ago, it was both her grandmother’s death and Evelyn’s birthday.

‘Maybe she thought, let’s live a good life or something like that.’

But that won’t go well.

Because she was born as a bad girl!

After Sera had come to such a random conclusion, she began to look for an opportunity to properly get revenge.

And that’s how she came all the way here.

There seemed to be a rift in the relationship between the boy named Ray and Evelyn.

Somehow, Sera saw it as an opportunity.

So, after thinking about it, she went near the house to spy on their situation a little better, and there…

She found two people on a rock.

The rock, where they were sitting side by side, was located close to the forest. Nearby, there was a good place for Sera to hide and peek into what they were doing.

Sera cautiously hid there with the gait she had learned from her mother.

The two sat halfway apart, looking at the stars in the sky. Thinking that no one was around Evelyn spoke in a loud voice and Sera could listen to it.

“Those two…?” (Sera)

That was when she was heard. Ray bluntly replied to Evelyn and threw a terrifying glare at Sera and at that moment, he threw a stone in a flash.

“Ouch!”

Sera, who let out a breathless scream, stared at the stone that hit her with maddened eyes, but there was nothing she could do right now.

Still, with determination Sera held her seat firmly.

In the meantime, she was trying to hear anything she could catch. Then Evelyn spoke for a long time.

“So, don’t do anything dangerous. If you are going to do it, please tell me in advance. How closed-minded are the villagers at an End Village, there are so many dangerous people why are you walking around like that?”

“To whom you should tell that. It’s you who keeps going to the center of town, that would be more dangerous. No matter how much I am staying put inside, I know everything.”

Are they talking about the villagers ignoring Evelyn?

Sera rested her cheeks on her hand.

‘Those two seem to get along better than I thought, right?’

No. It sure looked like a fight before.

“That’s right…but It’s a different story with me.”

“It’s no different.”

“I have to make money.”

“I gave you money.”

“Ah! I don’t know. Let’s eat dalgona.”

Dalgona…?

‘What is that?’

Sera pricked her ears, trying to hear what she couldn’t catch.

“So, when you sleep. Why aren’t you sleeping in bed with me?”

……What?
