I Became the Villain's Master - Chapter 88
Chapter 88
‘Did I hear wrong?’
I clearly heard it say ‘mistress’ just now.
Judging from the reactions of the people around me, it seemed like no one else heard it.
[I was so surprised to feel the presence of a monster!]
I tilted my head in confusion as I heard the questioning voice again.
“What?”
When I frowned slightly, Kiris took a step forward with a worried expression and asked.
“Mistress. Is something wrong?”
“…Did you not hear something?”
“What?”
“That they felt the presence of a monster….”
Then the atmosphere around us turned cold.
“Really? I didn’t hear anything.”
“I definitely heard it. …Am I imagining things?”
I heard a voice so loud it hurt my ears. No matter how absent-minded I was, there was no way I could have misheard.
I could vaguely feel that some kind of phenomenon had occurred, whether it was related to magic or divine power.
But I didn’t understand why Kiris was looking at me with a serious expression.
Kiris’s red eyes flashed.
“Noctis.”
The magic power around him swirled as if he was about to use magic at any moment.
“What did you do to the mistress just now? I told you to heal her. Wasn’t that it?”
“I was just checking his divine power.”
“Ha, do you think I’m going to believe that?”
“It’s the truth.”
“Wai, wait a minute.”
I don’t know what kind of misunderstanding they’re having, but I quickly stopped them before a fight could break out.
If Kiris attacked Noctis, I didn’t know what would happen.
If word got out that the Tower Lord had injured a high priest in the Grand Temple…
The thought made me dizzy.
“Don’t worry. It won’t be what you think. I’ll fix it. Let’s go to the Magic Tower.”
So I said as nonchalantly as possible.
“…I really heard it. And I’m feeling completely fine now. Like I was just born.”
But Kiris didn’t even blink at my words.
I looked at Mary with pleading eyes, thinking that he might teleport me to the Magic Tower at any moment.
“Mary! I’m eating well and I’m very healthy now, aren’t I?”
But, what is this?
“What do you mean? Miss, don’t tell me….”
Mary suddenly grabbed my hand with a sad expression.
“I will help you heal, Miss. I will.”
“No, I’m really okay. Mary. I definitely heard something just now….”
“The monster… The monster is….”
Mary’s eyes lost focus and tears streamed down her face, making me want to scream and run away.
Her trembling hands and worried eyes.
They were clearly treating me like a sick person. Not just Mary, but everyone else’s expressions were similar.
Why are you all doing this!
“Mistress. I apologize.”
“Wai, wait a minute!”
As Kiris approached and gently grabbed my hand to cast a teleport spell, a saving hand reached out.
“Sir Kiris.”
Noctis, who had been watching Snow intently all this time, quietly spoke.
“It seems that Miss Rosette heard the words of the divine beast.”
“What?”
“Yes?”
Everyone’s eyes focused on me, and even I stared blankly at Noctis.
‘Divine beast?’
I had once spoken to Snow through the sacred fountain when I visited the temple.
It was a phenomenon that occurred because I temporarily used divine power, and the situation is different now.
Noctis said I had manifested divine power, but-
‘I still don’t know how to use divine power.’
Then how could I hear the words of the divine beast?
“After checking her divine power, I found that Miss Rosette has manifested divine power. She just doesn’t know how to handle it because she’s still unskilled. But….”
Noctius trailed off and glanced at Snow, who was clinging to me.
“Kiing!”
[Mistress! Mistress!]
“She should be able to communicate with the divine beast.”
So…
“Snow?”
[Yes! It’s me. Snow!]
The unfamiliar voice that had been talking to me was Snow.
[Mistress, can you hear me?]
Snow, who had been wagging its tail, looked up at me, and its round eyes were so cute that it was bad for my heart.
“Yes. I can hear you. You’re Snow, right?”
But unlike the cute appearance of the furry bundle, the feeling it was giving me wasn’t all that cute.
[Finally, my stupid mistress…!]
It was unfair.
I’ve been trying so hard to manifest divine power so that I could communicate with Snow!
[Kiing. I think you’ll need me, mistress. I’ll follow you around from now on.]
I was speechless at its words, as if it was doing me a favor.
[And don’t hang out with that nasty man. I’ll be with you.]
I was speechless as he pointed its snout at Kiris, and Kiris looked at Snow with gleaming eyes.
“Mistress. What is that divine beast saying now?”
“Ahaha… It’s nothing.”
I decided to bury it in my heart forever for the sake of Snow’s life.
Snow curled its body into a ball, avoiding my gaze.
[Well, anyway. Mistress.]
“…?”
Snow pressed its body against my hand and proudly said.
[My fur is precious, but I’ll let you touch it specially.]
…My fantasy of the divine beast in my imagination was shattered.
