I Became the Villain's Master - Chapter 109
Chapter 109
It was a sweet kiss.
Time flowed, and it felt like an eternity, though it was only a short while. After a while, I slowly opened my eyes.
Kiris, who had slightly bitten my lower lip, parted his lips.
“Kiris.”
I couldn’t remember how it happened. It was such a hot and passionate kiss.
“Mistress.”
Kiris lifted me up and kissed me with a sound.
My heart, burning hot, wouldn’t calm down, and I wanted to be in Kiris’s arms. I felt an impulse rise within me without knowing.
“I’m so happy.”
Kiris smiled with joy and slowly laid me down on the soft bed.
The touch of his hands supporting my back was very careful.
“I didn’t know you felt the same way.”
Kiris ran his hand through my tangled hair. He positioned himself on top of me, supporting himself with his arms on either side.
I smiled slightly and cupped Kiris’s cheek with my hand.
“No. I just realized my feelings later.”
“Even so… I’m so happy to hear your answer, even if it’s now.”
“Kiris.”
“Yes?”
“Call me by my name, not ‘Mistress’.”
Kiris’s large hand clasped mine, which was touching his cheek, and he smiled faintly.
“Rosette.”
“Is that all?”
I laughed and shook my head.
“I’m older than you. By one year.”
Oops! I seemed to have gone too far with the joke.
His eyes, which seemed to swallow me whole, constricted me. My body wouldn’t move, as if I were stuck in a swamp.
Our legs were intertwined, and Kiris, looking down at me lightly bit his lower lip.
“Should I call you ‘Noona’?”
I felt like I was going to lose my mind at his captivating appearance.
As Kiris’s lips drew near, I closed my eyes—
[Mistress! Where did you go, abandoning me!]
A sudden, loud sound rang out, and a white thing appeared before my eyes.
“Snow?”
“Kiing.”
[This filthy human, what is he doing to my Mistress!]
Snow bristled its fur and bit Kiris’s arm.
“…Where did this thing come from?”
Kiris shook his arm, and Snow, hanging on, moved with him.
“…?”
Only then did I come to my senses.
I returned to reality from the hazy feeling of walking on clouds, and it seemed like I was seeing things.
“Gasp!”
I was startled and slipped off the bed, moving back.
‘I’m crazy. What have I done?’
I hadn’t realized it before because I had lost control of my senses, but a whirlwind of incredible events flashed through my mind, making my face burn.
‘Ugh, I’ll die of shame.’
I closed my eyes, thinking of the place where I was as my grave.
I was embarrassed and ashamed, but I was happy.
I would have no regrets if I died like this.
“Kiing! Kiing!”
[Mistress! Snap out of it. I’ll take care of this cunning human!]
Snow moved around, facing Kiris. But it bumped its head.
‘Let’s just die… right here…’
I covered my face and berated myself.

The underground of the Imperial Palace.
In a secret space that no one knew about, a man was being tortured.
His black hair was stained red with blood, and his bloodshot eyes were grotesque.
“Tsk. You’re useless.”
“Damian! You dare!”
Haidel glared as if he wanted to kill him, but only a clanging sound could be heard, and his bound body wouldn’t move.
“I’ll follow him. I need to move for the task. Even if I become the scapegoat.”
Damian, wearing a robe, muttered ominously.
“But Haidel, you’ve always failed. Is there any need for you to be around?”
“…That’s!”
Damian raised one arm, and magical power surged through his body, making Haidel twist.
“Huh?!”
“Your body is twisted. Hahaha!”
Damian leaned back, laughing wildly.
His crazed laughter soon stopped, and Damian, returning to an expressionless face, bent over.
“I risked my life to release the beast, but you couldn’t kill her. No, you only provided clues.”
“…She had divine power.”
“Yes. She had immense divine power, enough to tear the beast limb from limb. It’s a mistake that you didn’t notice that variable, isn’t it? His Highness was so disappointed.”
Damian tapped Haidel’s forehead, which was covered in blood.
“I didn’t know this opportunity would come. His Highness has regained most of his power, and it’s time to reveal our existence.”
“…What?”
“That’s why we need a sacrifice to spread his presence.”
Damian looked down at Haidel, whose eyes were wide with shock, and slowly stood up.
“Haidel, don’t you feel excited at the thought of becoming an ingredient for the task?”
“….”
“You’ve also absorbed some of his power, so I think the effect will be great.”
Damian summoned a sharp knife and cut his own finger.
Drip, drip
Then, he began to draw a strange pattern around Haidel with the flowing blood.
“Even a useless dog, if abandoned, must wag its tail for its master until the end.”
Damian muttered coldly as he completed the pattern.
“His Highness gave you many opportunities as an assassin.”
Swoosh—
“But—”
Black mist swirled around Damian.
