I’m a Villainess, But I’m Happy Because I’m Healthy - Chapter 6
In my previous life, I couldn’t even give my parents a proper filial piety.
No, before that could, I left the world before my parents, so I can say that it was invalid.
Even if it wasn’t that way, today’s Aslan was already very happy with her parents who loved her, and just imagining them happy made her feel good.
‘Just because I’m a part of the game, I’m not going to be endangered like I was in the game story.’
It has already changed a lot from the game.
That fact was confirmed by the reaction of the servants.
There is no such force in this world where stories flow just like in the game.
It completely possible for the story to unfold a different future from the game, depending on how I do.
So the probability of being killed by the main character of the game is 0%.
So there was no need to quit school just to avoid them.
Before that, I also wanted to go to a school which I had never been to in my previous life.
‘But the problem is…… there are those guys from On the Sky.’
The biggest reason why Aslan is worried.
Some of the On The Sky members she had met when she entered the school, she didn’t want to bump into.
No, the members of On the Sky themselves were the ones I never wanted to meet.
Thinking of them, she repeatedly pondered and decided to reconsider later.
‘Whoa. I don’t know. I know nothing about their childhood. If they’re connected from now on, I may be able to change their future, but…… they’re so dangerous, is that possible?’
Whatever it is, let’s just focus on dieting now.
Aslan, lying on the bed, grabbed her belly.
“Uh. First of all, I have to get used to this hunger.”
It was still her belly, screaming for food at night.
***
A carriage was running on the road under the blue sky.
Aslan, who put her head out to the window in the carriage, felt the wind pleasantly.
‘Cool!’
She judged that it was impossible to run because of her weight yet, so she felt great since she had never run while feeling the wind.
“Father, where are we going?”
It’s been a month and a half since I started dieting.
She had been at home all this time, and today her father Leon enticed her to go out together.
I wondered if we were going out to eat, but Aslan, who was now used to hunger, thought it would be all right to refuse, so she came along with him.
“We’re on my way to a friend’s house. You’ve never met anyone your age, have you?”
“Oh! I can make friends?”
Leon nodded with a happy smile.
In the meantime, it has been almost impossible to make friends due to Aslan’s personality, Aslan has never been allowed to meet children of her age as well as in the social world.
However this time, it was a decision made by the Duke who judged that the changed Aslan would be good enough.
“It’s a year younger than you, but you can still make friends with them, right?”
“Yes!”
Aslan was also an only child from her previous life.
Also, I have never made any friends in my previous life or even now.
‘A friend? I’ll be good to you!”
But I can’t believe I got this chance.
It felt so good, that I just felt like I was going to fly away when I felt the wind in my body.
“But if it’s a friend of father’s, is it a nobleman?”
“That’s right. He’s the marquis of Appleton. He’s a friend who played an active part during the Great War. He was also with us during the invasion of monsters. He’s also a benefactor who saved me from being surrounded by monsters.”
For reference, the knights and sorcerers running on horseback were also present around the carriage.
In addition to magic, there were some very special creatures called monsters in this world.
‘I wasn’t afraid of the monsters in the game.’
The most effective way to increase combat capabilities in character development was to fight monsters.
As a so-called warrior in the game, I spent a week out of town hunting monsters.
It didn’t feel very dangerous because it ended in an instant with a short cut scene, but it seemed dangerous when I saw people around me.
“Are monsters very dangerous?”
“It depends on the type. There are weak monsters and strong monsters. Of course, strong monsters don’t come out easily, and ordinary monsters can easily be defeated by skilled wizards and knights. Weak monsters can knock down ordinary people.”
“But do I have to be careful in places like this?”
The road they were running on is not far from the city.
It looked peaceful outside, and it didn’t look like there were any monsters.
“Of course there are no monsters around here. Most monsters live on land beyond human reach. But sometimes monsters appear on places like this too.”
“Oh, come to think of it……”
I remembered learning about monsters in class through my private teacher.
Although the principle of the creation of monsters has yet to be clarified, it is widely believed in academia that distorted magical power is what creates a monster at present.
Also, there was a minor theory that it was born in response to the strong will of humans, but it was almost a dead theory.
Aslan asked a more specific question, as the progress of the class has not yet gone into detail.
“Then could a monster suddenly be created around a town or city?”
“It’s possible. But the conditions for mana are mostly stagnant, so it doesn’t happen easily in crowded areas.”
The fact that there are a lot of people means that there are many people who use magic power.
In particular, even if people who cannot handle mana at all live together, there is no reason for mana to be distorted because magical items that absorb and operate the surrounding mana are popularized.
“So it’s almost impossible?”
“That’s true, but sometimes monsters appear even in crowded places. But the escorts are prepared for that.”
You’re too worried.
My father is also a wizard.
As long as it’s not a dangerous monster, Leon can defeat it by himself.
‘Is it because of me?’
I felt Leon’s love, so my heart was warmed.
Aslan, who was staring at him, smiled.
“Thank you, Father.”
“Hmm? What’s wrong?”
“Nothing.”
Aslan looks out of the window and is excited.
A brief sense of incongruity ran into her head.
‘Marquis Appleton? I think I’ve heard it somewhere before……’
But the sense of incongruity vanished like dust and was offset by joy.
‘Well, it’s not a big deal.’
Let’s change the future of our school life!
A red mane and a roaring lion looking at the sky.
A carriage carrying the crest of the Leburnsuit family arrived in front of a mansion.
With the guards bowing slightly with their one hand on the chest, the gates opened leading the carriage to the front of the mansion.
“We’ve arrived.”
“This is Appleton residence……”
The mansion was large and beautiful, but it was not very impressive. The house of Aslan, the Duke’s mansion, was as big and beautiful as this mansion.
However, it was a building that overwhelmed her with excitement at the thought of meeting new friend of her age.
“You’ve come, your grace, the Duke of Leburnsuit.”
From the main gate, a man who appeared to be a butler greeted them.
“Well, what about him?”
“He’s waiting in the drawing-room.”
The door opened, and the red-carpeted floor appeared.
When I followed the butler’s guidance and walked along the soft road, the drawing-room quickly appeared.
And Aslan saw.
“Here you are, Duke.”
An impressive-looking man in his 40s.
The one who greeted them with black hair and a soft smile like the night sky.
The little light in the black eyes was like starlight, and he looked good in his plainclothes that was not at all aristocratic.
The slight wrinkles on his mouth and the white-gray hair between his black hair made him look older, but on the contrary, there was a mysterious energy that made the man look more impressive.
The expression of the man with a soft smile seemed to tell what his personality was like instead.
“I apologize. I should have met you at the front gate.”
“What kind of gap do you think we have between you and me? Long time no see! How are you feeling?”
He is the best friend of Leon Leburnsuit and head of the Marquis of Appleton.
It was Marquis Barrow Appleton.
He bent his knees toward Aslan, supporting his body with a cane made of fine wood.
“You’re Aslan. You’re just as cute as your father said.”
“Hello, I’m Aslan Leburnsuit. Nice to meet you, Marquis.”
Aslan greets with courtesy.
It was a proper greeting, but her mind was full of confusion.
‘What is it? Appleton? Why does it keep on hovering in my head?’
It was the same in the carriage, but the sense of incongruity worsened when I came here.
Where the hell did I hear that again?’
The more I thought about it, the more I could not find the answer, like a mysterious mouse.
“Yes, it’s nice to meet you. Come to think of it, Aslan, I have a favor to ask you.”
“What is it?”
“If you don’t mind, why don’t you be my son’s friend?”
‘Son? I thought it was a daughter.’
However, Marquis Appleton, who accepted Aslan’s silence, which had been standing in a state of an oddity as a positive sign.
The Marquis beckoned somewhere.
“Don’t hide and come out.”
Behind the curtain.
A small boy hiding in the dark appeared.
The boy, who was a little shorter than Aslan, had cute round eyes.
“Now, can you say hello to the Duke and his daughter?”
“…….”
Like his father, he had black hair and black eyes, but there was no light in his eyes.
‘Oh……’
As soon as the boy’s eyes met her’s, Aslan realized.
The traces of the old memories that remain in the previous life were recalled and why there was a sense of oddity.
“……Nice to meet you Duke Leburnsuit and the Lady Leburnsuit.”
Like a nobleman, the boy greeted properly even though he’s still young.
‘Don’t tell me he’s the ‘son’ of a father’s friend?’
The boy said his name in a subdued voice.
“I’m Juventus, the eldest son of the Marquis of Appleton.”
At the same time, Aslan shouted internally.
‘F, final boss!’
The boy from the game who in the future will be called……
‘Dark Reaper!’
