I am the Precious Daughter of the Greatest Villain in the Fantasy World - Chapter 7

****

Time went by quickly.

Thunk… clink!

Bing Eun-seol flipped over her bottle of alcohol. The bottle of alcohol and a plate of snacks flew into the air and smashed to the ground with such force that its shards flew across the room.

Seoyoung had retreated into the furthest corner and crouched to make herself hard to notice. Her arms tightened around me. The wind revealed how much Seoyoung was trembling.

‘Huuu’

I’m fine with the abuse.

But drinking alcohol and throwing objects and breaking them… I really hate that. I recently recalled the head of the orphanage, who trampled on the toys of the kids when he drank alcohol.

I’m three years old now. For nearly 3 years, I endured Bing Eun-seol’s abuse.

In the meantime, I became a little taller and could run now. Though my pronunciation still isn’t good, I can speak decently enough. Plus, I could now make flower crowns on my own.

Bing Eun-seol also changed like me. No. Recently I feel like she’s become a completely different person.

At first, she enjoyed harassing me but suddenly she started hitting me. Then she started drinking, but recently she started to break stuff while drunk.

“Why are my ice powers weakening!?”

She yelled.

The elegant and bewitching appearance that she had before disappeared without a trace. Her well known beauty had started to wane and the energy that she had was too faint to even feel.

I thought it was because of the alcohol, but maybe it wasn’t? Maybe something also happened to her powers?

“This is all your fault! My powers started to weaken after you were born!”

Bing Eun-seol pointed her long knife like sharp fingernails towards me as she stared daggers into me.

Seoryeong hugged my head tightly in case she would harm me. I buried my face into Seoyoung’s trembling chest and sighed.

“Haaa.”

From what I’m seeing, the problem was pigging out on all the elixirs. Obviously, when you drink all the elixirs without considering the side effects, it would cause some issues. Or maybe she incorrectly absorbed the energy of the elixirs.

Of course, this is just guesswork, but other than that why would her powers wane?

“You! Give her to me.”

Seoyoung begged her as she held me.

“Madam! Please don’t do this! It’s Madam’s daughter!”

“Who said I’m killing anyone? If you don’t also want to get punished, give her to me. Didn’t I tell you to give her to me!”

“Instead, this servant will take the punishment. Please just let the Young Miss be and vent your anger on this servant”

“What? Vent my anger? The mother is trying to educate her child and you’re saying I’m venting my anger! You really want to die!”

She stood up shakily. Even though she didn’t drink that much alcohol, she looked super drunk. Her powers must have really weakened. She could have used her powers to trivally remove her drunkenness.

First abusing me with her powers and then physically hitting me, it was because her powers had weakened.

Since people didn’t really pay attention to me, she didn’t need to be discreet with her abuse. With her eyes nearly popping out of her head, Bing Eun-seol grabbed a new bottle of alcohol and chugged it.

As soon as a few drops came out, she threw the bottle at us angrily.

Paasak!

The bottle that hit the wall behind us turned into sharp pieces and bounced in all directions.

“Euuk!”

Even in this situation, I wasn’t hurt at all because Seoyoung had protected me with her body.

“Nanna! Ouchie?”

“I…I’m fine. I’m not hurt at all, Young Miss.”

Though Seoyoung said that, her forehead had started bleeding. It seemed that a few fragments of the bottle had struck her. I pressed on Seoyoung’s forehead with my sleeve.

“Idiot girl! Why can you only talk like that?  If I had known you were going to be an idiot, I would have never given birth to you!”

I couldn’t keep staying mute so I recently began to start talking in front of other people. Instead, I adjusted my speaking ability so that it looked like I lagged behind my peers. However, my pronunciation was not an act. My tongue muscles had developed slowly because I hadn’t practiced talking a lot.

Nevertheless, the servants openly treated me like an idiot and Bing Eun-seol had a seizure every time I talked.

“It’s all because of that idiot! That bitch stole my powers and stole the hearts of the congregation! If you didn’t exist! If I didn’t give birth to you!”

Bing Eun-seol screamed hysterically with glaring eyes and approached me.

No! Your powers decreased because you drank any and everything. Cheonma wasn’t even interested in you from the beginning!

I swallowed the lump in my throat.

‘Woo, I’m tired.’

In my previous life, I was abused harshly by the orphanage director. It was a common practice to get caught and suffer corporal punishment, or to starve.

Having already experienced such abuse, I was confident that I would be able to withstand the Bing Eun-seol’s violence.

But it wasn’t so.

In my previous life, I thought that if I could endure it alone, it would have been the only situation that I would need to be worried about.

But the situation where I had to see Seoyoung hurt because of me was really hellish.

I should have said something to Aku Ryun. I should have asked him even if he could only save Seoyoung.

Why didn’t I think of that before?

I regretted the past events that caused Seoyoung to be in danger.

But it was already too late. The only person who knew about the situation, Aku Ryun, had gone into secluded cultivation a long time ago. Nobody would come and save us.

All the servants here were Bing Eun-seol’s people. Seoyoung and I were alone.

‘I need to endure. If I give up, my nanny will also be in danger’

If I die, Bing Eun-seol would frame the murder on Seoyoung. I clenched my teeth and held back my tears. But Bing Eun-seol had grabbed my wrist.

“Come here!”

“Don’t do it! Madam! Please hit me! I’ll take the beating in her place”

“Ara, you’re going to die today.”

Bing Eun-seol stomped on Seoyoung’s back. Seoyoung held onto me desperately, hugging me, even though there was a stream of blood flowing from her mouth. Not being able to stand this, I got out of Seoyoung’s arms.

“No, don’t! Young Miss!”

I latched onto Bing Eun-seol’s thigh and started to hit her. To her my hits were as weak as an ant’s bite. But if I didn’t do anything, I would have gone crazy from spite.

What did Seoyoung do to wrong you? If you want to hit someone, just hit me! Just hit me!

“Why hit! Why hit! Hate you! Hate! Hate!”

“This bitch is crazy”

Pak!

Bing Eun-seol swung her hand and hit my head. I flew like a straw doll and hit the wall.

“Young Miss!”

Seoyoung screamed and ran to me.

“Young Miss, Young Miss? Wake up! Young Miss, can you see me?”

“Nanna…”

“Ah, God! Thank you!”

Fortunately, I did not faint.

Maybe because she was drunk and her aim was off, I was a bit dizzy but that much wasn’t enough for me to faint.

I shook my head to correct my dizzy vision.

‘It will be quiet now.’

Though Bing Eun-seol had hit me, she was already tired. So sometimes I purposely got hit. Of course, I didn’t get hit in the head like today. Still, she’s not going to go berserk anymore.

“Huk! Young Miss… you have a nosebleed!”

“Yes?”

Drip, drip, drip.

A lukewarm liquid dripped from my nose. Because I got nosebleeds frequently, I casually wiped my nose with my sleeves.

“…huh?”

My nosebleed didn’t stop. And just like that, the floodgates had opened. The blood kept flowing without stopping. At the same time, I felt blood building up in my throat.

“Kuk!”

Vomiting dark red blood, I kneeled over. My vision tinted. My arm that was on the floor started trembling. My ears started to ring and the world started to spin.

“Ah, Young Miss, what’s happening! Madam, the Young Miss’ condition is strange! The medical staff! Please call the medical staff!”

Bing Eun-seol was taken back so she froze for a bit. But then she started to snort.

“Hmm…pf! . Medical staff my ass. Just put her to sleep!”

“Madam!”

Seoyoung begged but Bing Eun-seol pretended to not hear her and ordered the servants that were standing outside.

“Daan, is that person there? Come in right away and clear the inside. Make sure no one leaves this room.”

“…”

There was no response from the outside. Bing Eun-seol shouted nervously.

“What are you guys doing? I said come in right now and clean…. Aack!”

Kwang!

At that moment, with a tremendous roar, something flew through the door and crashed into the corner.

It was a mass of blood in the shape of a man.

Whether it was from the beginning, whether it was due to hitting the wall, or because it was all covered with blood, the person’s face could not be recognized.

At that time, Bing Eun-seol screamed after determining its identity.

“Daan!”

The bloody mass was the servant that was guarding my room.
