[Part 2] Death Is The Only Ending For The Villain (FOR OFFLINE READING PURPOSE)

186

I fell down after a short scream at the sudden appearance of Renald. He frowned and covered his ears. “Hey! Why are you yelling all of a sudden!”

“Oh, why are you walking around so dark at dawn?”

“Hmm? Huh! You’re so elegant looking for a dog hole at dawn?” “…”

My mouth was shut at his rebuttal for the first time in a long time. ‘…God, damn it.’

I never expected Renald to wake up while even trained knights was still asleep at dawn.

The fact that I considered him as the one of the character who might have been brainwashed by the heroine made me nervous. I was pouting my lips and thinking about what excuse to make.

“Aren’t you going to stand up sooner? Your clothes are dirty.”

Renald gave me his hand with a pout. I looked at him with astonished eyes for a moment, and soon ignored it and jumped out of my seat. He asked, as I was brushing off my dirty clothes.

“…Geez, are you going to leave home?” “Hey, you?”

“What?”

“You’re going to tell father?”

When I asked back instead of an answer, the blue eyes shook for a moment. He stared at me for a moment and opened his mouth.

“If I tell father… So you’re not going out?”

His question was a bit strange. If he tell the Duke that I secretly looked for a dog hole, he would surely try to lock me up, but then what was the point of my recovery?

“Well.”

I imaged the worst. The escape was blocked and the piece could be taken away by a scary heroine. And the idea of a brainwashed person being driven to death as a vicious villainess who torments the hostess…

I wanted to try to die again, I didn’t want to die like that in a fucking place.

‘…Come to think of it, I failed this time because of crazy automatic payment, but if I try again, I might escape.’

Suddenly this thought went that far further. I muttered to myself like I was talking to myself. “…Let’s just die again.”

“Hey—!”

Then, Renald shouted.

“There’s nothing you can’t say in front of your brother! Are you crazy? You barely survived, and…!” “Then don’t tell father.”

I cut off his words in the middle and gave him a cold grunt. “If you don’t want to see me die again.”

“You…! Ahhh!”

He frowned and swept his hair up roughly. He was staring at me with a pouted look on his face, and soon reached out and grabbed my arm.

“…Follow me.”

“Uh…!”

And turning to him, I stumbled, and in a daze I had no choice but to follow him. “Where are you going?”

“…”

“Renald, where are we going?”

“Ah! If you keep on hitting me, I will run to our father and tell him everything. Huh?”

It was not a strong force, so I could quickly stop walking, but it was not the way back to the mansion. He didn’t seem to be trying to extradite me yo the duke immediately. So I obeyed him in silence.

After a long walk on the opposite side of the original path, Renald stopped near a unfamiliar wall. Under this wall, piles of straw were piled up. It was a place where knights collected the remains of scarecrows used for training.
