3 – Villains are proud
My day starts with exercise. He also trains all kinds of swordsmanship and develops physical strength. It includes very hard sparring.
If you can relax your body through exercise, the next step is magic. Learn useful magic in everyday life, healing magic, and combat magic.
No matter how high-status he possesses as the son of a duke, the force itself will be indispensable someday.
The last thing is to study. Study various knowledge to live in this romance fantasy novel. While reading several books.
However, there was something rather unique about this reading. It was a book called .
This is a book that she bought and read for her fiancée, the villainess, Sael Azbel. As a habit, I open the book.
—-In order to deal with a noble lady, devote endless devotion. Then she will open up.
⋯Did this work for Shael?
Not at all. Reading this book in the first place was a mistake. Because she is not a noble aristocrat, but rather a vicious villainess.
While I was thinking that, another book appeared to me.
＜999 Ways to Bully the Villainess＞
I don’t know why this book exists. No, is it okay to publish a book like this in the first place?
Still, after reading it roughly, it was a good book. I was also able to read something that might be helpful.
Anyway, this is a phrase that could be used today.
When a villain does something embarrassing, touch her pride.
While thinking about these words, I headed towards the wicked woman.
* * *
The next thing after reading is the meeting with the evil woman.
Across from me is Sael. All with her eyes wide open.
Until this point, it was as usual. What was next
Putting heart and soul in order to please her. This too is one of my daily routines.
But not anymore.
Percussion!
She put the teacup down forcefully. It seemed to express that I didn’t like it. Because at the same time he was staring at me.
Usually, this would have been overlooked. Of course, now I can’t lose either.
Tahahahahah!
Louder. It was such a strong sound that I doubted if it was the sound of putting the teacup down. If the sound earlier came from her teacup, this time it was mine.
“I’ve won.”
“⋯.”
The wicked woman has strong self-esteem. In other words, she is never convinced of the situation she is losing. Even if it’s a strange confrontation.
So the wicked woman raised the teacup again. It wasn’t for drinking. Then you see a teacup being knocked down.
Taaagh!
Taaagh!!
It was the sound of my teacup that immediately followed the sound of her teacup. The sound of her teacup was drowned out by the sound of mine.
“Ahhh!”
Voice of the Villainess also followed.
You might think that her drooling stemmed from jealousy toward me, but not this time.
Because the hot tea water in her teacup spilled onto her hands.
“Ugh…”
Ah, the drool this time came from jealousy toward me. Yes it is Because I defeated the villain this time too.
“⋯Are you okay?”
The wicked woman immediately covered her hand and said.
“It’s not okay!”
As I was about to get up thinking that maybe I had been burned, I heard another sound.
Taaagh!!
This time it was the sound of her teacup. It wasn’t because of the burns, but because of pride.
Before her heartbreak turned into laughter, she heard the sound of the teacup brewing again.
Clang!
It was the sound of the teacup she hit. Of course, a teacup could not withstand such an impact.
“⋯.”
“⋯.”
And then a moment of silence.
Her silence was caused by the feeling of losing even after winning, and my silence was caused by this absurd situation.
However, this silence had to be broken immediately. Because so many ladies-in-waiting came into the room.
“Ah, lady! What’s up?!”
The ladies-in-waiting immediately stopped asking about Sael’s safety. It was because he finished his assessment of the situation after seeing the broken teacup in front of Shael.
The ladies-in-waiting said as they cleaned up the broken teacup.
“Call the doctor now!”
As expected, it is the golden jade leaf of the duke’s family. Even though she said nothing, the ladies-in-waiting called for a healer.
“No, I’m not hurt, so the healers are fine. Get out of here.”
It was Shael who was holding back the ladies-in-waiting. It was a very cold look, just like when he looked at me in the past.
But Shael said as if she had a sudden good idea.
“No. Don’t go away. Stay here.”
At the completely unknown order, the ladies-in-waiting had no choice but to wait.
She looked at me. This time, it was different from usual that he didn’t show a cold expression, an unfair expression, or even a resentful expression.
But she grinned and just looked at me.
It was as if she was telling me she had beaten me.
“⋯Huh. I guess I’ll have to be dumb now, Eran.”
Aha, she must have thought that I wouldn’t be able to talk back in front of the maids.
Certainly, this time is a bit of a crisis. The ladies-in-waiting are in front. If he did such a reckless act of harassing the wicked woman in front of the ladies-in-waiting, he would see blood.
Nevertheless, my face was smiling.
That’s right, only bullying is impossible.
It is possible to express affection. Because we are also betrothed.
“Shael, today is also beautiful.”
“⋯What did you do again this time?”
She couldn’t help but swallow her words. It is because she has read the mood of the ladies-in-waiting around her.
The common interest of the ladies-in-waiting is the story of love. This is natural. Most ladies-in-waiting were at an age where they could dream of love.
The ladies-in-waiting come out with their faces reddened and focus their attention on Shael. It was like watching a movie.
“⋯.”
The wicked woman blushed. But she didn’t let it out of her mouth.
The desire to beat me is bigger than the shame. Understanding her feelings, I thought.
If the desire to beat me is bigger than the shame…
Isn’t it enough to make the shame bigger?
I immediately went into action.
He scoops the cake off the table and brings it to her mouth.
Of course, there’s no way that self-respecting villainess would quietly accept this.
“Oh, are you ashamed to eat in front of the ladies-in-waiting?”
It wasn’t Sael who responded to my sentimental words. It was the ladies-in-waiting.

Kyaaagh!
The ladies-in-waiting must not make such noises in front of the wicked woman, Shael.
But the maids couldn’t stand it because the two people in front of them looked so much like the two main characters in a novel.
Shael was still silent in this situation. However, the reddened face represented her feelings.
‘Eh, don’t let the maids go out like this?’
Increase the intensity this time. I got up and went to Shael.
Ah, this time I will touch not only shame, but also pride.
The distance was barely touching her face. He whispered quietly into her ear.
“Did you think you wouldn’t be able to defeat me without the help of the maids?”
“⋯.”
“As expected, you’re a coward. Ah, I understand. Ever since I was little, I couldn’t do anything without the ladies-in-waiting, so I won’t.”
“⋯.”
As I stared at Shael, she said to her ladies-in-waiting.
“⋯You guys get out.”
This was my victory again.
It is according to the book. I pondered over what I had read. The content that if the wicked woman does something embarrassing, she will touch her pride.
It was because the wicked woman had strong self-esteem.

Shael was very angry. It was unfortunate that she lost, because her hands had burns and scratches from the teacup.
It was a serious matter to have a scar on her body, the golden jade of the duke’s family.
So she could count on her hands the number of wounds she had ever had on her body.
Even if it’s an imperceptible scratch.
Of course, that wasn’t the reason why Shael was unhappy about her scar.
If you get a wound, you can apply a little potion. The drug is so developed. In the first place, there are many excellent doctors in the Duke’s family.
But she thought otherwise. Even her imperceptible scars look different to others.
Because they treated her small wound as if it were a big scar to them.
As an example, even the ladies-in-waiting who saw the broken teacup called for a healer.
So when she gets hurt, she doesn’t tell anyone and hides it. Then she waits until she gets better on her own.
It was like that a little while ago. Because I covered the wound so that my damn fiancé would never see it.
I stroke the wound I was injured a moment ago. She couldn’t help but wonder.
“⋯?”
Because the wound had completely disappeared. It was a short time that couldn’t have healed naturally.
What immediately comes to her mind is her thoughts about her own fiancé.
Come to think of it, when her fiancé whispered to her, she felt a warm feeling in her hand.
“⋯.”
The villainess Shael felt resentful.
Again this time, it was because the wicked woman had strong pride.
