Becoming the Villain’s Family - Chapter 226

Chapter 226

Valentine is completely cut off from the outside world. Not only that, the entry and exit of outsiders was censored very strictly.

This splendid and magnificent castle was no different from a very huge prison to Sabina.

‘It would be best to say that there’s no way to escape alone.’

It would be nice if there were some gaps.

She walked silently through the hallway in the main palace, lost in her thoughts. It was time for her to plan an escape route, just in case.

“This is the office.”

said the middle-aged butler who was showing Sabina around the castle, pointing to the ornately embossed door.

“The Grand Prince is here.”

She threw him a questioning gaze that said, ‘So what do you want me to do?’.

“It’s meal time soon, the two of you together…”

“I refuse.”

“Understand.”

The butler, William, did not offer her a second time and withdrew neatly.

“Looks like I’ve looked around the castle. Can you take me to the training ground?”

“The training ground?”

The seasoned butler had no choice but to confirm Sabina’s request again.

‘That sweaty place?’

It wasn’t just the smell of sweat. The smell of metal, the smell of blood, even the smell of oil.

With all sorts of stench that drifted in the air, the training ground became a place that was left unattended.

The place that even the maids were reluctant to go to.

“…this way.”

But what if the Grand Princess wants it? The butler obediently made his way to the training ground.

“Gasp, madam!”

“It’s Madam.”

The Black Falcon roared seeing Sabina.

She frowned.

‘Why do people here and there call me Madam before we even have the wedding?’

Sabina tried to correct the title. If only one of the knights hadn’t pounced on her with an excited face.

“Madam, is that true?”

Sabina didn’t bat an eye at the man that suddenly popped out and asked.

“What do you mean?”

“I heard you killed several carnivorous rabbits!”

The butler, who had covered his nose and mouth with a handkerchief, looked back at Sabina with a surprised look.

“Madam did?”

Carnivorous rabbit? As Sabina looked like she had no idea what it was, the heated knight explained.

“That one, you know. Looks cute like a weak rabbit, but if you get tricked by it and approach it, it suddenly turns into a muscular monster and attacks you!”

What even is that…….

“Huh? Why do you look like you have no idea at all?”

As Sabina frowned even more, not understanding it, the Black Falcons who were part of the search party at the time interrupted.

“Didn’t you catch and roast several carnivorous rabbits while you were in the Ingo Mountains the other day?”

“Wow, is it true? I can’t do that either. You really have extraordinary guts.”

“Amazing, right? I saw it myself. There were exactly five of them.”

“Five carnivorous rabbits at once?

The Black Falcons were busy praising Sabina.

Of course, there was no way that Valentine’s elite knights couldn’t deal with the five carnivorous rabbits.

They were just as happy.

The former Grand Duchess was a very weak person physically and mentally, so just watching her from a distance made them sad.

Of course, they didn’t dare to complain but……. They had a wish that the person who would become the Grand Prince’s partner would be someone who was physically and mentally strong.

To them, Sabina was the perfect Madam.

“I’ll learn something like that.”

“Uhaha! If I build up my skills someday, can I formally ask Madam for a spar?”

The Black Falcons said excitedly.

They didn’t even seem to know what they were talking about because they were trying to cheer Sabina up.

‘What the hell are you talking about?’

As for what Sabina caught, it was just an ordinary rabbit. Not a muscle-packed monster.

“What I caught was a rabbit…”

“It was just a rabbit.”

It was then.

One of the knights who had been silent so far interrupted. He smirked as he looked at Sabina up and down.

He was obviously sneering at her.

“The hunting grounds keeper who manages those monsters doesn’t seem to notice, but if you’ve ever hunted them yourself, you’ll notice right away.”

Sirs don’t have a keen eye either. The knight added so.

“If it was really a carnivorous rabbit, she wouldn’t have been able to pierce the vital points in one go…”

“Sir Bart.”

“Why? Did I say something wrong?”

Bart went on regardless of the brief dissuades of the other knights.

“As you might have noticed, there was no trace of hunting on the rabbit’s hide. The rabbit was only pressed down with overwhelming force.”

The Black Falcons, with wrinkled expressions, glanced at Bart with an unkind gaze.

Who is here to determine whether this is true or not? They’re only doing this to exalt the person who will become the Grand Duchess.

“Didn’t you hear what the hunting grounds keeper said? Ordinary rabbits don’t live in that forest.”

“Sirs know that even if they can be there, doesn’t mean they have to live there? There are a lot of rabbits that were put in wolf cages as food. They might have escaped while being put in the cage. Someone might have set them free.”

“Sir really…”

One knight muttered, rubbing his forehead in trouble.

Sabina wanted to say ‘here it goes again’, but she seemed to be swallowing her words.

“Sirs should be able to see with both your eyes open. Don’t pay lip service. You’re wagging your tail so much that I thought you were a dog, not a falcon.”

Bart laughed and shook his head.

“What, dog? This punk…”

“You think it’s offensive? If I mirror what you guys did earlier, I’d be too embarrassed to even lift my head.”

“Ah, that social misfit bastard.”

“Train properly. As soon as the commander left, the training got neglected, when will you reach this level?”

“Huh, are you in a position to talk about training? You’re more half-hearted than anyone else…”

“Someone like me can just do it half-heartedly. But, you guys would only be able to reach my toes even if you stay up all night and focus on training.”

He mocked the Black Falcons, then wielded his sword in a showy manner.

Anyone can see that it was an action shown to Sabina. To show the gap between ordinary people and knights.
