I’m a Villainess, But I’m Happy Because I’m Healthy - Chapter 8

It has already been three days since Aslan arrived at the residence of the Marquis of Appleton.

During those three days, Aslan lived a life that was no different from home.

“I’m done taking a walk this morning!”

I take a walk in the morning, and take the same meal I eat at home.

It was all thanks to the consideration of Marquis Appleton.

It is a secret that Leon, who was next to him, forgot the face of the duke and cried.

Thanks to this, I was able to maintain my diet, but something slightly different happened.

‘Hmm. I still haven’t figured out Juventus’ secret.’

It was Juventus’ background investigation.

Unlike at home, I didn’t have to study here, so I naturally had nothing to do except during exercise.

Originally, she had to get along with Juventus, but the boy still ignored her, so she naturally made plans in advance to fix Juventus’ personality.

‘I didn’t know he was already obsessed with power. I have to fix that personality somehow!’

Juven’s condition was serious.

His father, Marquis Appleton, was unaware of the boy’s serious condition, as he had not been able to spend time with him often because of his work.

However, Aslan, who secretly observed Juventus because she had nothing else to do, found out that the boy’s condition was strange.

‘Every book he reads is related to power.’

Even the name of the book was terrifying.

Starting with.

As well as.

It was not a book for a nine-year-old boy to look at.

Even this

Unlike at first I thought it would still be okay, but Juventus was already becoming a monster chasing power.

‘I can’t do this! My school life will be ruined because of the Dark Reaper!’

I didn’t think there would be any further damage to myself.

Unlike in the game, he was more likely to reach her now.

Even if not, it was clear that a happy school life would be bloodied if the Dark Reaper made a fuss.

‘I need to fix it…… But I can’t fix it because he keeps ignoring me!’

The biggest problem was that Juventus had been ignoring Aslan since the first day.

Even though she was watching him quietly from the side, he did not give as much as a glance, and he does not answer me when I spoke to him.

When I tried to talk to him several times, he would just look at me with contempt.

Of course, he just looked cute because he was still a nine-year-old boy.

Even now, as Aslan kept talking to him, she found him so cute to stare at, that she almost gave him a pat.

‘I can’t believe that such a cute boy will become a monster. I guess childhood is really important.’

Although he is still seeking power, he looked so much cuter now compared to his future appearance.

‘I have to fix it when I can.’

The problem is how do I fix a person who doesn’t want to be fixed.

However, while staying here, I got some information from the people around me.

She had nothing to do, so she could quickly get along with the servants by talking to them about a thing or another.

‘Is it because of your mother’s death?’

The mother of Juventus.

The Marchioness Astia is said to have been weak since the beginning.

After giving birth, she grew weaker and was perpetually sick until eventually, on a stormy night half a year ago, she passed away.

Aslan thought that Juven’s obsession with strength was because of her mother.

‘They said that he was a bright and energetic kid before.’

According to the servants, Juven was no different from a normal child until his mother died.

An energetic adorable child who smiles a lot.

A boy who is noble but is also kind to the servants, he is a simple and polite boy who resembles his father.

But after his mother died, the boy’s laughter disappeared.

He was always stuck in the room, it was only two months ago that he barely recovered and showed his face.

‘Well, you’re only nine, aren’t you? How sad you must’ve been for you when you lost your mother.’

Being a smart and clever boy, he may be blaming himself for his mother’s death.

I couldn’t think of any other reason why he was so obsessed with strength.

‘Maybe he tried to immerse himself into something else, to forget the sadness.’

Whatever the case, the death of his mother was likely to be the biggest reason that the boy changed.

‘So what can I do?’

It’s impossible to be a mother figure to Juventus.

Then, the rest of the method is……

‘Would it be okay if I became a good sister to him?’

Aslan was an only child in her previous life, she knew the loneliness of an only child better than anyone else.

Although her parents visited her often, they couldn’t always be there, because they worked double-income to pay for the hospital expenses.

If I had an older sister or brother, they would just be staying by my side when my parents weren’t there.

Aslan who was taking a stroll went to Juventus’ room.

Juventus, who was reading a book alone, still ignored her.

“Hello?”

Aslan gave a refreshing greeting to the boy.

And then……

“Hey!”

I took the book he was reading and threw it into the corner.

Before the startled Juventus became angry, Aslan first uttered shocking words.

“Let’s fight.”

***

‘What? Is this pig finally going crazy?’

Juventus looked at Aslan and frowned. Isn’t she behaving as if she is a strong man, staring with such confidence?

‘She’s a pig. Pigs can’t be strong.’

In many historical books.

None of the men who are called legendary heroes or warriors were fat.

The sculpted body, the mental power of steel, and strong magic are the components of strength.

But what about the pig in front of me?

Magic power? She doesn’t seem to have already awakened.

Body? She looks like the pig itself.

On the other hand, although the only thing he does is read books, he has a normal physique.

‘Pigs can never be strong.

In the eyes of a nine-year-old boy, Aslan looked too weak.

In the meantime, Aslan continued to talk.

“You said you didn’t want to be friends with me because I was weak. So if I’m stronger than you, will you be friends with me?”

“That can’t be possible.”

“You never know until you try. If I win, let’s be friends. If you win, I won’t bother you anymore.”

Haven’t you been bothering me enough?

Knowing that she would return in a month anyway, Juven tried to reject the offer.

At that moment, Aslan’s provocation came up.

“Why? Are you afraid of losing? That’s why guys who are weak……”

“Who’s weak!”

I’m not strong yet, but at least I’m stronger than you!

Juventus, who fell for the provocation, rose from the chair and posed.

“Come on, I have to finish this quickly, then get back to reading.”

“Okay! Here we go! Attack first. It’s the job of a strong man to be generous to the weak.”

‘How far are you going to look down on me?’

Anger stood in Juventus’ eyes as he looked at Aslan.

‘This is why I dislike weak people……’

A bitter and sorrowful feeling wound around the boy’s body.

To forget it, Juventus spurs on the floor and ran straight to Aslan.

‘I can win just by shoving something like you!’

Let’s lie it down first and get on top of it.

It was one of the ways to easily gain the upper hand over the opponent, as it was in the book that Juventus had read.

Juventus, who spur from the ground, hit Aslan with his shoulders as he accelerated.

‘I’m not going to deal with the weak anymore!’

But……

Juventus couldn’t knock Aslan down.

“Ho ho. I knew it. That’s what I expected.”

” ·········!”

Juventus’ shoulders bumped into Aslan’s body, but Aslan did not budge.

“Ho, how?”

“I told you.”

As Juventus felt it was dangerous he tried to get out of her arms, Aslan hugged the boy with both arms one step ahead.

“I’m stronger.”

“……!”

No matter how hard he struggled, he couldn’t get out.

Looking down at the bewildered Juventus, Aslan smiled at the victory.

‘As expected. You’re still weak.’

The future Juventus is powerful. He uses a very special magic power called the Dark attribute, and even if he doesn’t use his magic power, he is physically strong enough to deal with ten knights.

But it’s the future Juventus.

After thorough observation, I found that the present Juventus was still weak.

‘It’s a very helpful discovery I found out when he was lifting books.’

He once went to put the book he was reading back on the shelf and ignored her.

At that time, even though it was only four books, but Juventus groaned about lifting them.

Aslan secretly lifted the same number of books, but they were not that heavy.

‘Well. He’s been stuck in the corner of his room for half a year. He must have lost a lot of strength and stamina.’

In addition, he is a year younger than Aslan.

Juventus whose mana hasn’t awakened yet was not scary at all.

‘Most of all I’m weak in stamina, not in physical strength!’

Her stamina, so to speak is weak.

However my physical strength was definitely stronger than her peers.

Of course, it was natural, her body is now 45kg. Which exceeded the normal weight, and even one month ago it exceeded over 50kg.

At that rate, it was almost the weight of a bag of rice, and it was essential to increase the muscle strength to endure that weight.

‘Thank you, Ms. Nurse!’

Among the nurses I was close to in my previous life, the story told by a martial arts fan was very helpful.
