I’ll Just Live As A Villain - Chapter 7
The knight looked up at the sky with a daze expression in my stern answer.
The night was so deep that the moon was still bright and clear.
It was obvious that it wasn’t a good time for a walk.
“He asked me to go out for a walk. Oh, you heard the rumour, right? The dog I raise.”
Only then did the knight’s gaze turned to my feet.
The butler spent the whole day searching the premises for the possible owner of Harry.
The knight must have known about Harry as well.
“Arf!”
As the knight’s eyes reached him, Harry move briskly as if he had waited for this time.
‘It is a dog that has never been heard of before.’
Harry didn’t stop there.
Like what was told in advance, he moved busily and grabbed the hem of my skirt.
“As you can see, he’s been whining at me so I can’t sleep well.”
“But it’s too late. If you leave it to me, I’ll take him for a walk and come back.”
The knight said so and reached out to take Harry. Of course Harry didn’t just wait and let it happen.
“Grr!”
Harry growled fiercely as if he were going to bite the hand that was reaching out, the knight withdraw his hands in suprise.
“Harry, you can’t do that.”
I patted Harry on the head, pretending to be strict on him.
The knight’s mouth opened wide at the sight of Harry, whose fierce attitude had dissapeared when I touched him.
“He must have chosen the owner. I don’t think he would follow anyone else. It’s going to be difficult to entrust his walk to you.”
“But as I told you. It’s too late to go outside, and no one can take the fire with them. The baron ordered—— “
“So I can’t go out?”
“Yes, it is.”
The knight looked at me and said firmly. He looks pretty weak, but he was a lot tougher.
‘I can’t help it. There’s only one way to get away with it.’
I used my pair of stiff legs to show the villain’s lethal moves.
I also did not forget to put my arms together with a haughty expression.
And when I made the expression, the knight who looks weak breathed in, “Hiik!”
“Hey, Sir. Are you blocking my path? I’m Yvesria Oberon.”
“Oh, no, no! How can I stand in your way!”
“Then you can get out of my way.”
“Well, um, I can’t get out of the way…”
“Are you trying to stop me or you will get out of my way?”
“Hi-ik!”
When I opened my eyes and ground my teeth, the knight looks sick as if he will faint.
“I, I, I, I’ll get out of the way so please don’t cut my fingers! My future as a knight!”
“Finger?”
The threat seemed to work, but the direction was a little strange.
‘I never said I’d cut your finger.’
What kind of creative intimidation is that?
Emma whispered carefully to me, who was standing and shivering .
“There’s a rumour that you’re cutting and stuffing fingers someone you don’t like.”
“……what does it mean of stuffing cut fingers?”
“I’ve never had my fingers stuffed, so I don’t know.”
“I’ve never done it before, so I also don’t know.”
“What? Have you never tried it?”
asked Emma, with her eyes wide open. She seemed to have a strong belief that the rumor was true.
“…I’m sure I know exactly how my rumors came out.”
Originally, rumors were inflated as they were passed from person to person.
From the south where the capital is, to here from the north where Erell was.
How many people made the rumour exaggerated while the story was told?
‘Should I be glad it’s not a rumor that I’m cutting fingers and baking them?’
I sighed and waved my hand at the knight.
“I’m not interested in fingers, so be relieved.”
“Then, yo, yo, you’re gonna cut my neck…”
“I don’t care about your neck! I just need you to open that door.”
“But you really shouldn’t go outside.”
The conversation came back to the first one, and I was dying of frustration.
“I wanted to make it work, but I can’t.”
I sighed exaggeratingly and ordered Harry.
“Harry, bite that knight’s finger off.”
Harry, who was looking at me and the knight’s confrontation with boredom, was delighted.
[Really? Can I eat his fingers? Can I eat all his limbs and head?]
[Do you mind? I’m just threatening him, just pretend to bite his finger.]
[Kett. It’s not funny.]
Harry grumbled, but he approached the knight at my command.
Harry leapt at the knight which threatened to bite his hand at any moment.
“Oh, oh, I get it! I’ll open the door for you!”
The knight opened the gate with a whimper. He also mumbled, “I can’t or I’ll get scolded by the boss.”
‘I see why you’re still guarding the door at this late hour.’
I licked my lips past the gate and escaped out of the mansion. Emma followed suit.
“Where were you going with the fire? Take me there, Emma.”
“Yes, miss!”
Emma nodded her head with a bright face.
She was moved to come out of the house with the fire, that tears are also coming out in her eyes.
Emma walked in front, and me and Harry followed.
But there was an another footstep that should not have be behind.
“Why are you following us?”
It was the extra knight who got out of the entrance and got into a scuffle with me.
He was still sniffing behind me.
