38 – First Draw with the Villain
The sound of me opening the door. At the same time, a rustle was heard from the bed.
“⋯Aren’t you sleeping?”
That was what Sael said as soon as he woke up. She must have been deeply asleep, but ⋯⋯.
⋯ Could it have been acting?
I have chills. If she had really fallen asleep as the wicked woman said, what kind of disaster would she have suffered?
Shael, who had been looking at me, stood up and said.
“⋯Then let’s go outside.”
Shael made another suggestion. It seemed that I had finally realized that I would never fall asleep.
To be honest, it’s hard to accept Shael’s sudden suggestion to go outside… But it was a better suggestion than before.
Rather than suddenly growing up.
“⋯Yes, let’s go. Where would you like to go?”
“⋯.”
Shael ponders for a while. Could it be that she made such an offer without even thinking about where she was going?
Then Shael opened her mouth.
“⋯⋯Let’s go to the zoo.”
“⋯A zoo, you mean?”
At my words, Shael nodded her head.
A wicked woman suggests going to the zoo.
To be honest, it was a proposal that no one expected.
I was flustered but followed Shael.
Shael was heading to the Azbel family’s teleportation field.
A place full of magical energy with teleportation magic circles drawn everywhere. I arrived at the teleportation field before I knew it.
At the same time, Shael frowned at her. It was because Duke Jespen was staring at Shael.
If it was Sael, it was clear that she would feel ashamed of this situation.
Whether he knew it or not… Duke Jespen looked at Shael with a moment of embarrassment.
It made sense. The villain came to the teleportation field by herself?
In the teleportation field, there was no place Shael could normally go.
Duke Jespen looked at me for a while and then nodded as if he understood.
Duke Jespen smiled happily before disappearing.
“⋯.”
Shael, who was staring at the place where Duke Jespen was, started looking for a suitable magic circle for her. She takes a magic circle to go to the zoo.
Then, there was a magic circle drawn that was quite massive for a magic circle to go to the zoo.
Come to think of it, there were rumors that Duke Jespen was a great lover.
It must have been the zoo that the Azbel couple favored.
Thanks to that, I think I can go to the zoo comfortably.
Shael touched her magic circle. Then, before I knew it, Shael and I were at the zoo.
“So, what animal did you want to see?”
“⋯I didn’t ask to come because there was an animal I wanted to see.”
Unlike the horse, Shael started walking. It was a step with a destination for anyone to see.
Wooooo
A gradual vibrating sound. Focus your eyes on the starting point of the vibration. Then the dolphins appeared.
Looks similar to what we saw in real life. Only these dolphins were flying through the air.
“⋯Magic Dolphin⋯?”
There was an explanation on the sign. A species that exhales high-quality magical air while floating in the air?
It was a kind of air purifier. In fact, it even feels good quality mana.
Looks like the whole zoo had good quality magic…
This seems to be the reason.
Shael was silently admiring the dolphins.
It was clear that I was captivated by the mystery of the dolphins flying through the air.
However, the words that came out of Sael’s mouth were enough to make me panic.
“That’s not good. Rather, catfish would be better.”
It was the taste of an unknown villain.
After Sael said that, she started walking.
But she was different this time. Unlike her walk to see the dolphins, it was a step without a destination.
Me and Shael started walking around the zoo, looking at the animals curiously.
There was no way that Shael, the villainess, had been to the zoo a lot, and she was me who had just been possessed in a fantasy world.
So it was a natural result to be captivated by the charms of animals.
In the meantime, I saw animals that looked like elephants. People were throwing food. A sign was seen.
ㅡEat just about anything.
Eat just about anything?
I immediately pulled out the magic pouch. I quickly started examining the magic pouch.
To be honest, I thought there wouldn’t be anything left because I gave everything to Shael earlier, but fortunately there was a box with some cookies left.
It was thanks to the fact that it was hidden by his clothes.
He took out a cookie and threw it. Then, an animal with the same appearance as an elephant took it and ate it in one bite.
It was a really cute animal. To the point where I want to make more desserts.
So it was only natural that Shael would also be interested.
No matter how evil she is, she will feel the emotion of cuteness.
Sael looked like she wanted to try eating cookies herself. But she can’t let Sael carry dessert around.
“Please take it.”
She said, handing her cookie to Shael. It was handed over in the sense of feeding the animals.
By the way…
When he looked at the animal again after handing the cookie to Sael. There was a creaking sound from the side.
“⋯.”
“⋯.”
I looked at Shael with a strong feeling. Suddenly, the cookie she gave to Shael is gone.
“⋯What if you eat it?”
“⋯?”
I’m so embarrassed that I can’t even say anything.
Well, the villainess ⋯ couldn’t do her favor.
Even if it’s a cute animal. So, you ate the cookie instead.
Yeah, she wouldn’t like to do animals a favor.
⋯Absolutely wanting to eat cookies was probably not the reason.
She said to Shael, barely organizing her thoughts.
“⋯Nothing.”
Then I walked on, trying to ignore the animal that was staring at me eagerly as if it wanted more cookies.
That’s how you go around the zoo. Again, I was able to see the guy who intrigued me.
It was a small puppy. A pure white puppy with a very cute appearance.
However, the small size and cute appearance did not imply a docile personality.

Kaeng-!
The guy started building while glaring at Shael.
Of course, even if it was a puppy, there was no law that the wicked woman would take care of it.
Shael also said, glaring at her puppy.
“A small crab…”
As if understanding Sael’s words, the puppy began to struggle.
As if to prove that this is a world in a fantasy novel, the puppy has become a bigger beast than Sael.
Urakburak’s face became ferocious, and thick veins were visible.

Kuuuong——!
Even though it looks cute, there was a reason why it was locked in a sturdy cage.
⋯Honestly, I was a little scared. But Shael was still glaring at the unknown beast.
Surely, the wicked woman has no fear?
It was then that the beast barked again.

Kuuu——!
This time too, it was a sound that made me faint. I calmed down my surprise and asked Shael.
“⋯What are you doing?”
“⋯What is it?”
At some point, Shael hid with me as a shield. It was really fast.
To the point where I thought that if there were to be a war, Shael would run away with me as bait.
Could it be that he was so frightened earlier that he couldn’t even run away and stayed still?
Anyway, this was an opportunity. A good opportunity to tease the villain.
“Are you… scared?”
“It can’t be.”
Shael answered confidently. But Shael was still behind me. I provoked Shael again.
“⋯ Then go ahead confidently.”
“⋯.”
Shael pondered for a moment before she spoke.
“⋯If you go first, I will too.”
Usually, I would walk confidently and make Shael come too, but…
I couldn’t do that this time. If it did, it seemed that her life would fly away.
As if it had been kept in the zoo for no reason, there were magic circles attached to its body that were not there when it was small.
But there was no reassurance. If I go next to it right now, I feel like my limbs will be torn apart.
Of course, since it’s in the zoo, safety is guaranteed with all kinds of magic, but what to do with scary things?
I just turned around and started walking without saying a word.
Shael also followed me.
The fight against Shael happens every time. And this time it was a draw. We succumbed to one beast.
While walking around without saying anything like that, I heard a familiar voice.
“⋯⋯Ah, a very shy sister!”
When I gave dessert to Shael, who was starving while tailing me. It was the voice of the child I had met then.
To be exact, it also brought Shael shame.
This time too, it was only possible because Sael and I were wearing the same clothes commoners wear.
Shael changed clothes because he didn’t like people’s attention, and I changed into normal clothes because it’s strange to wear nice clothes alone.
“You⋯⋯.”
“Are you alone? What’s your name?”
Before Shael could speak, she asked the child. It was strange for such a young child to wander around alone without her family.
“Yes! My name is Kayla!”
The child, named Kayla, replied with a bright smile. Kayla added, she said.
“I have to play for about five more hours before going in!”
Is a five-year-old child wandering alone in the world of this implausible novel?
Fortunately, security was good. Seeing as I was wearing a tracking bracelet, I didn’t feel like I was going to lose my family.
There is no such thing as a car, so there is no need to worry about getting involved in an accident.
Trying to understand, she held out her hand to Kayla. Safety aside, I didn’t want to leave this young child alone.
“Then, stay with us until then.”
“Like⋯!”
That was Kayla’s answer as she held my hand. Even Sael’s hand, which hadn’t been handed over.
Just when Shael frowned and tried to let go of her hand. Kayla looked back and forth between me and Shael, she said.
“Dad, Mom!”
It was a shocking remark.
Then, he secretly looked at Shael. It was clear that the mischievous girl was making fun of the shameful villain.
