I Became the Villain's Master - Chapter 94
Chapter 94
‘The magic that covered the Tower.’
The black magic that caused him to lose his memory.
It felt similar to that. A sickening, strange aura.
“That aura is similar to the one that attacked the Magic Tower.”
“Right! That’s why I hurriedly called you, Sir Kiris! How was I? Did I do well?”
“…Yes.”
“I finally received your recognition! Look, Rosette! I did it… hmpf, hmpf!”
Kiris’s expression contorted instantly, and he used his magic to cover Louis’s mouth.
“It seems like the subjugation here is almost complete.”
“Hmpf, hmpf!”
Louis nodded several times and jumped in place.
“Then, once the subjugation is complete, you personally investigate this aura.”
“Hmpf?”
Louis tilted his head and widened his eyes.
Kiris scratched his head and spat out his words.
“That aura hurt the mistress, you see. I’ll definitely make them pay.”
Swoosh!
Kiris’s anger resonated with his magic, and the piled-up corpses of the monsters instantly turned to ash and disappeared.
“Hmpf, hmpf?!”
Louis moved around and looked at Kiris with eyes asking what was going on, but Kiris lightly ignored him.
Then, he poured his magic into the ring on the ring finger of his left hand.
“Soon, the Imperial Palace will send personnel from the Magic Tower, so you can leave that to Helena.”
“Hmpf, hmpf?”
“The Marquis Kanilaen family….”
With those words, Kiris disappeared with teleportation.
Louis, who was blankly staring at Kiris’s empty space, screamed fiercely and slapped his own mouth.
“Hmpf, hmpf!”

Even after the banquet was over, Ailt did not return to the family.
The Marquis of Kanilaen regretted that I could not meet Ailt.
“It’s a shame. Ailt has been looking forward to this day.”
“Is that so?”
“Yes. He has been looking absent-minded lately, and I think he was thinking about you.”
“Huh?”
I knew that Ailt was looking at me with pity and guilt in his eyes.
That was seen in the eyes of the Marquis of Kanilaen!
Where did the image of the iron-blooded chancellor who was thorough and meticulous in the original story go?
“Then, plese rest well.”
The Marquis of Kanilaen, who laughed heartily, let me go, saying that I should rest well.
“Lady Rosette. I’ll go see my father for a moment. I’ll come back and have tea time.”
“Let’s do that.”
Helena sighed softly and left, and I headed to the guest room with the maid that the Marquis of Kanilaen had attached to me.
“Follow me.”
The maid, who had sharp eyes that slightly went up, politely guided me.
She was the maid who was next to me when the butler said he would introduce the Marquis’s residence corner by corner.
The luxurious bed and antique furniture showed that it was not an ordinary guest room.
‘It’s almost the size of my house?’
[It’s much better than the mistress’s house, right?]
‘Be quiet.’
Don’t just say that so innocently!
It hurts as if my bones are going to break. I’m a commoner, so I should live in a better place if I have money!
Anyway, my house was already quite big, but this is beyond imagination.
I could even run around a few times inside. As expected, the Marquis family!
As a family that produced chancellors and a family with many scholars from generation to generation, even the guest room was full of bookshelves.
I looked around in amazement and sat on the chair at the table.
“I’ll get ready.”
“Over there.”
“Yes. Please speak.”
“What’s your name?”
The maid, who had her back turned, stopped abruptly and bowed her head.
“My name is Jenny.”
“Hmm… I see.”
“Yes, then I’ll get ready.”
The maid slowly went outside. I tilted my head as I watched her back.
‘Something’s strange.’
My neck has been tingling since earlier, and my ears were itchy as if someone was cursing me.
[Cleanliness is important. Mistress.]
Should I try to cut off the divine power for a short moment? I thought about it briefly, but before I could do so, the maid came in pushing a trolley.
“Excuse me.”
Then, she started setting up sweet desserts and tea.
I watched the scene closely.
Clang.
“I’ve prepared black tea. Kanilaen Marquisate mainly enjoys black tea.”
“I see.”
I held the teacup and savored the aroma. The fragrant scent made me feel good, but I felt a creepy feeling again since earlier.
[Mistress, this is a bit strange. It’s repelling the divine power?]
‘As expected.’
I smiled inwardly. I don’t know how she got into the mansion, but it’s a good thing.
Because it’s a chance to know who is trying to harm me.
‘Snow, bring Helena in your divine beast form.’
[I understand. Mistress.]
Snow disappeared from my sight with a grumble, and I glanced at the door where Snow had disappeared and put down the teacup.
“It’s okay. You’ve worked hard.”
“Thank you.”
Then, I called Jenny, who was bowing her head and waiting.
“Jenny. Come here.”
“Me…?”
“Yeah. I want to talk to you.”
“But I’m a maid, and the young lady is….”
“It’s okay. Helena will be a little late.”
“Yes….”
Jenny, who had been flinching her shoulders, sat across from me at my invitation, and I handed her the teacup that was in front of me.
“Are you having a hard time?”
“No….”
“Go ahead and drink.”
I smiled and offered the teacup once more, and Jenny’s eyes, which were looking at it, shook restlessly.
