Villain Princess.

And this matter...

Lucy also knew that it was the truth.

She herself was also part of the nobility and naturally learn about these things from her father. The main reason why she learned swordsmanship was because her father offered her two paths to take.

One was to become a proper lady to get married in the future.

Second was to lead the territory on her own and the matter of the successor could be discussed in the future.

She is a girl.

But she also has her own dream and goal.

So she chose the second option without hesitation and trained bitterly over the years. If it was not for Aurora’s help, her etiquette level would never reach this high and she would be humiliated by the other noble girls around her.

"Do you want to go there?" Lucy asked tentatively.

Annelie passed a look at Lucy. "What belong to me will remain mine but what didn’t belong to me will never be mine. I don’t have much expectation in the first place, why should I fight for it?"

She was too lazy to fight.

It would be better for her to spend her time doing other things that she liked rather than focusing on men.

Well, if Annelie hadn’t met with Aurora, she might want to do it.

After all, her mother taught her many things about the high society and the few things that she herself had to pay attention to when she interacted with others.

But after meeting Aurora and seeing how Aurora behaved plus seeing Lucy, who fought against her own fate and tried to change her future, Annelie felt that their way of doing things were more valuable and replicable.

Rather than wasting her time to chase after someone, it would be better for her to spend her time to cultivate herself.

It felt more memorable.

Besides, she didn’t have any feeling for him.

It was nothing more than a marriage contract.

"We should go back," Annelie finally said.

"Yes." Lucy nodded.

...

Adela really felt happy after she heard Louis’s words.

Because she knew that her action when he was done was really working. The routes were developing in the way accordance to the game that she had seen before.

This made her feel more confidence.

Anyway, it was also very fun.

As for this incident?

Later on, Mirabelle woke up and made trouble, accusing that everyone wanted to kill her. She wanted to go and find the person who wanted to kill herself and even suspected that it was Adela who did it.

And it was her words that made Crown Prince Edward felt more impatient.

Because he knew that Adela would not do this.

He had a fierce quarrel with MIrabelle.

Adela listened from outside the door and could barely make out some words along with the smashing of vase and other things inside the room.

It seemed that Mirabelle’s temper was out of control.

’If it’s Aurora here, the scene would be very different... but did Sister really have any allergy?’

The scene was very similar to the game but Adela honestly couldn’t remember if Aurora had any allergy. Or it should have been replaced by poison since even if Aurora didn’t have any allergy, she couldn’t possibly be resistant to all poisons. 𝕗𝐫𝐞𝕖𝕨𝐞𝗯𝚗𝕠𝘃𝐞𝚕.𝐜𝗼𝚖

As for the conclusion of the events in the game?

It was naturally Aurora was angry, but she didn’t throw her temper around. Aurora’s character development was very different from the explosive Mirabelle.

Even if she looked pale and weak, she still ordered fierce investigation.

When they were found, Aurora tortured them crazily and even caused deaths. And it was Crown Prince Edward who felt that Aurora was too fierce. She was still alive, why did she have to go so hard to torture these people.

He felt disappointed in her.

But Aurora didn’t think that she did wrong.

’It’s really gory.’

Adela shivered when she thought that the game CG was indeed not very good to look at. If she had to see those things in real life, then Adela would definitely faint.

She couldn’t possibly stand such a scene.

Bam!

The door was slammed shut after Crown Prince Edward walked out. He looked at Adela and the other three who were waiting for him with apologetic expression.

"Sorry to make you wait so long," Crown Prince Edward said and his tone had calmed down slightly compared to the time when he was yelling towards Mirabelle inside the room just now.

The others nodded.

They knew that Crown Prince Edward was not in the good mood, so they have no intention to ask what he did. Anyway, it was good enough that he was able calm down now.

"Well, it’s almost time for class." Leon had his hands behind his head. "Shall we go back there and have some spar in the meantime?"

"Sure, just let me win this time," Crown Prince Edward replied with a smile.

"No way, your skills are too bad."

"Tsk, Louis, how about you...."

"Your Highness, I won’t spar with you," Louis replied with a deadpan expression. It was clear that even if he were to be forced to spar, he would never agree.

"Ugh..."

Adela smiled when she heard their conversation and joined in to watch in the fun.

This life is really good!

...

Time passed quickly and it was already the middle of their last year in the academy.

Adela knew that not all events could be replaced by Mirabelle.

But there were still one event that she experienced that made Adela felt really good. It was during the time when Crown Prince Edward left for a few days because his mother called him.

He brought some gifts back.

And he didn’t only bring them for Mirabelle but also for Adela.

This happened right in front of Mirabelle, which seemed to show that Adela had a high position in Crown Prince Edward’s heart.

Mirabelle’s expression when she saw that looked really pale.
