I Tamed the Male Lead Who Would Kill Me - Chapter 1
As I knelt on the scaffold, I looked at the crowd filled with rage.
They booed and laughed at me. Among the filth thrown toward the execution stand, one egg flew toward my head. With the sound of cracking and cracking of thin shells, there was a disgusting rotten smell that made you vomit.
“Kill!”
“Kill them quickly!”
The angry mob was hoping for my execution as soon as possible. Many people gathered here only wished for my death.
It was miserable, sad and scary. I was angry at the same time.
Why did I, the daughter of a marquess family, who was only 10 years old, go through this?
I’m the eldest daughter of a prestigious marquis, I’m a young girl, why?
“You dare Count Raumdisel, no. Abusing Confucius!”
“Those who will kill the world!”
Stones and filth started to fly over the execution table again, and I had to give up my body without the slightest resistance.
“Apologize to Prince Raum Disel through death!”
“Sinners pay for their sins with death!”
The crowd raised their hands and shouted.
Oh yeah. Raum D’cell.
The reason for this sadal was because of the Raum Disel that they chant.
I quietly pondered the beginning of this fourth month.
In fact, the duke, Raum Disel, was a poor count, no different from a commoner, putting the word aristocrat to shame not long ago. Somehow, no matter how hard he tried, he could hardly escape poverty, and eventually the Count turned his eyes outside the Empire. However, there was one big problem here, and at the time, this empire had no maritime trade routes.
Just three years ago, the sea was full of pirates. Even the Imperial Navy couldn’t help it. However, there was someone who wiped out and reformed the pirates and incorporated them into the navy. He was the poor Earl of Raum Disel.
He was made a duke in recognition of his merits.
“The high-ranking criminal who abused the son of an imperial hero!”
“How could you be so mean to your best friend’s son?”
And that was why I was kneeling on the scaffold.
Count Raum Disel has a son who is 3 years older than me. He left his trade and left his son with our family.
This is because my father is a long-time friend of Count Raum Disel, and the Gladelis family is a very gentle and respected noble family.
“You hypocrites!”
“You pretended to be nice on the outside, but ran an illegal fighting arena behind the scenes?”
“I heard that His Majesty even traded slaves that were strictly forbidden!”
On the face of it.
While doing all kinds of dirty work behind the scenes, his father took on Karsian, the son of a close friend, to protect the image of a ‘gentleman and respected noble family’.
However, his father had no doubt that Duke Raum Disel would die, and regarded Carcian, who suddenly accepted him as a military family member, as a thorn in his eye.
‘You useless insectivore! I know how much money goes to you!’
Because of that, he didn’t hesitate to treat Carcian like a servant or starve him, and not only his father, but also me, my mother, and my younger brother joined in.
‘My dad says it suits you to live like this.’
‘My mother said it, but even if you run away, no one will accept it.’
But did they say that the sun shines through the mouse hole? Or is it correct to say that people do not know the future? The eloquent duke pacified and reformed the pirates and opened the maritime trade route, the long-cherished wish of the empire.
And that in just 3 years!
“Ooh!”
“Kill, kill!”
People’s booing brought me to reality.
Due to the abuse of the son of an imperial hero, the operation of an illegal arena and the slave trade that the emperor strictly prohibited, all of our family members were sentenced to death and were forced to wait for death.
It was truly a moment of winding good and evil.
That’s why I tried to accept this situation humbly for a while.
If it hadn’t been for my mother’s muttering that I heard in an instant.
“Well, let’s blame everyone for Latia’s actions, so why didn’t you listen to me… … .”
I was so surprised that I raised my head, which had been lowered aloof. As her mother wheezed, her father threatened in a low voice.
“Are you insane? Do you think that makes sense? I don’t know if you bullied Carcian, but how does a 10-year-old run an arena!”
“Why can’t you? In fact, it was Latia who organized the books. Anyway, the important thing was the ledger. Karsian only harassed Latia, and since we have a corps anyway, if you say that you were handing over general responsibility as part of training the successor… … .”
I felt the world grow distant.
now i… … Is what I’m hearing right? Is it right that my father and mother are trying to put all their sins on me?
“If you have made the illegitimate child of a vulgar maid’s belly treat you favorably, I wouldn’t be happy to repay you this much!”
Mother said in a tone that she did not understand the father who admitted all his crimes and eventually sent his family to death row. Then, I hugged my younger sister, Elene, who was trembling and unable to say anything.
“Poor Elene, my one and only precious daughter… … .”
Elene hurriedly burrowed into her mother’s arms, and the figure looked very affectionate. However, I only felt the illusion that the complex and noisy surroundings had become as quiet as a rat.
I couldn’t think of anything.
Trying to place the sins of my father and family on me alone. If only I could do it, I would have done it a long time ago.
That I wasn’t my own daughter.
It was too harsh for a truth I learned before death. I sat down blankly and waited for my turn. Until now, my family treated me like a man, and the servants laughed at me and ignored me, but I didn’t get scolded. Now I think I know why.
I was an illegitimate child. I am not their real family.
I wondered what my head would be like.
In order to protect my family, I took on all of Elene’s sins and the false accusation of being insane. So, with a body of only 10 years old, I heard that she is the wicked witch of the century.
Eventually, when the blade to cut my throat flashed, I saw a kaleidoscope that was said to rise before I died.
No, can it really be called a kaleidoscope?
In my memory, I wasn’t Latia, the daughter of the Marquis. Even so, she was ‘me’, and ‘me’ was reading romance novels in a world that was completely different from the world I lived in.
I couldn’t remember the title, but for some reason the content was clear. The moment I remembered all the contents of the novel, I realized as if I had been struck by lightning.
That’s my past life And this place was inside a novel I read in my previous life!
I raised my head. A boy stood in front of him.
His jet-black hair looked even blacker because of his pale complexion, and the red eyes staring at me were cold, so it was scary to look at, but he was clearly the male protagonist of this world, Carcian Raum Disel.
Karsian was staring at me with deep, meaningless eyes. The short moment when our eyes met each other felt very long to me. As Carcian pursed her lips as if to say something, the executioner raised his sword high again.
My gaze naturally turned to the knife, and I thought as I looked at the day shining in the sunlight.
An idiot who took the lead in harassing Carcian in order to be loved without knowing anything.
A pitiful villain extra who thought the compliments he got back when he bullied Carcian were real.
That was me, Latia Gladellis!
Hiss, the blade came crashing down with a sharp sound.
* * *
“Lady, lady!”
“Um… … .”
Intense dizziness ensued. She closed her eyes for a moment and then opened them to find a nanny in front of her.
huh? nurse?
I rubbed my eyes and looked again. But no matter how much I rubbed my eyes, no matter how much I blinked, the nanny who looked at me with a worried face did not disappear.
“… … nurse!”
I smiled brightly and called her.
How is Susan here?
My nanny, Susan, was apparently kicked out three years ago for not participating in the bullying of Carcian!
I don’t know why Susan is on the death row, but I hugged her tightly because I was afraid of death.
… … Wait, rub your eyes? You said you hugged Susan? I must have my arms tied now.
Startled, I pulled away from her and looked down. I was wearing a pretty dress, not a dirty jumpsuit, and my arms weren’t tied.
Besides, here… … .
“Is this my room?”
How the hell did this happen?
I opened my eyes wide. Susan drew closer and whispered, looking even more worried.
“Please stop, lady.”
“uh?”
“Actually, the lady is not such a bad person.”
ping… … The memory came back with a slight vertigo. She had once heard a similar remark from Susan.
When was that?
“miss. Please stop. The love you receive for doing these things is not real love.”
Oh yeah. right.
It was when I knew that my mother would be happy if I bullied Carcian, and I spurred her even more. Susan held my hand and dried me up in tears.
Don’t bother Carcian, this isn’t me, I’m not such a bad person. Saying that, Susan said she’d rather run away with her.
At that time, I drove a nail into Susan’s heart, saying how the marquis’s daughter could run away with her nanny… … .
Everything in the past came back to me as karma.
I was sorry for saying harsh things to Susan, so I tried to apologize, but … … for a moment.
Do the things of the past come back to me?
… … Come back?
I couldn’t, I couldn’t believe it, so I turned my head away from Susan to check the front.
And there.
“… … Nonsense.”
There was Karsian.
It wasn’t even the figure holding the hand of his father who returned from a golden home.
“How could this happen… … .”
Just as he was when he was being abused by our marquis family, as he was 3 years ago!
Unbelievable!
I have returned to the past!
