Since When Were You The Villain?

Chapter 7

 

“This! I would like it with this design!”

Sophia proudly reported her choice to the owner.

But Killian looked at her with an unknown expression on his face.

“Is that…?”

His narrowed eyes stared at the tip of her finger, pointing to the dress.

“What…? ”

‘Ho, maybe you don’t like my choice?’

Losing confidence, her fingers shriveled and bent.

Then Killian burst out laughing.

“I thought it would take a long time…”

“Huh…?”

In his soft muttering voice, there was a tone of pity for Sophia.

“Obviously, I said that I would buy as many as I could.”

“Then…?”

Killian nodded slightly at Sophia’s question.

For a moment Sophia saw a halo on the top of his head.

‘‘Everything’ means he doesn’t care about the price…!’

The young girl’s heart fluttered impatiently.

“Then, how many are you okay with?”

At Sophia’s question, Killian took a short breath.

His red eyes scanned the private room.

“Everything here if you want.”

A wave of emotion came rushing in like a tidal wave at a single sentence like a blank check.

Don’t worry about this fabric, that fabric, this design, that design.

If you’re worried about it, just buy it.

Killian’s purchasing principle was simple.

Isn’t he our male protagonist who truly makes possession full of rewards!

‘Really…!’

Anyway, it’s our first meeting, but if you come out like this, thank you so much!

As Sophia covered her mouth with her hand and raised her thumb up, Killian looked at her with bewildered eyes.

* * *

Sophia looked at herself in the mirror.

The bright red dress, which could not be grasped in real life, added vitality to Sophia’s pale face.

She smiled as she fluttered the hem of her dress.

The rest of the dresses were custom-made and were scheduled to be delivered directly to the Count’s house in a few days.

“You go in the wagon first.”

Killian said as he came out after talking with the general manager about the cost of the dress.

‘I picked out nine outfits with the intention of pulling out this male’s spine…’ (tl/n: expression of saying she purposely spent a lot of $)

It was clear that hearing about money would make her feel uncomfortable, so Sophia did not refuse and left the dressing room first.

‘Hah… I’m tired after shopping.’

As Sophia was going down the stairs to the entrance, she paused to catch her breath.

She lived in the attic and was not in good health. But she did such intense and passionate shopping with this body…

‘I was overly excited. I’m going to go in today and get a good night’s sleep.’

It would be nice if the room was also changed to a better room.

Thinking so, Sophia headed to the alley where the carriage was parked.

At that time.

“No! A thief!”

A high-pitched scream was heard from not far away.

Turning her head, she saw a man with a pressed hat, stealing a young lady’s bag, and running over towards her.

“If I don’t have that money, I will be kicked out right away…!”

The woman carrying her child collapsed, unable to catch up with the man.

‘An event?’

Sophia narrowed her eyes at the event that felt quite contrived.

The cry of the woman as if she had lost her world could be heard up to here.

It was a wailing of how important the money in that bag was.

‘Is it a passing episode?’

Sophia nodded her head as she saw the man running towards the alley.

Just in time, she had bought new clothes and her confidence was on the top of her head.

‘The female lead never gets hurt or killed by this.’

It is an unchanging law in the novel that extras cannot harm the protagonists.

‘In reality, I would have put more weight on safety rather than a sense of justice, but now it’s different. Because, I am the heroine of this world!’

Sophia felt like an actress in a movie, and she proudly stood in the way.

Then the bewildered thief moved his foot to and fro.

“Oh, won’t you move? Do you want to die?”

The cornered thief soon glared at Sophia with a sullen contortion.

But Sophia didn’t even budge.

“Put that bag down.”

Sophia spoke in a tone free of fear.

Then the man pulled out a knife.

“Ick!”

The man sharpened his teeth and thrust the flashing blade.

‘Huh… Are things a little more dramatic?’

It went further than expected, but it doesn’t change the fact that there was no female lead killed by a thief.

Sophia tried to collect big data from all the novels.

At that moment, she noticed a broom leaning against the wall.

At the same time, the thief swung his knife.

Sophia quickly picked up the broom and stopped the thief’s knife.

“Ugh!”

When the knife didn’t hit her, the thief’s eyes fluttered.

‘Look at that. An extra not beating the heroine?’

Sophia smiled triumphantly.

At that moment, the man kicked her broom roughly.

Snap!

The broom broke in two, and her body staggered backwards.

“Damn bitch…!”

The thief again grabbed his knife and glared at her.

While Sophia was bewildered, the thief reached out with a dagger to her face.

His flashing blades flew towards her in an instant.

She knew it was unavoidable.

‘Am I going to be the first female lead to be killed by ‘Passing Thief #1’? I left the male lead inside…!’

The moment she closed her eyes tightly, unconsciously, a great power pulled her away.

“…How reckless.”

There was a slight anger in his low, indifferent voice.

With his strong strength, Sophia’s body was buried in a hard yet soft place.

“Ahh!”

A harsh scream is heard soon after.

Sophia slowly opened her eyes to see Killian’s cold face above her head.

He was twisting the wrist of the thief with the dagger.

The thief screamed and dropped the dagger to the ground.

“How can we still have these kinds of criminals here?”

Killian easily subdued the thief who knelt on the floor.

He unfastened his black leather belt, tied the thief’s wrists, and fastened the buckles to tie the thief to the railing.

“Your Excellency!”

Just then, a coachman who was smoking a cheap cigar from afar came running.

At the return of the coachman a little late, Killian sighed and opened his mouth.

“John, call someone nearby.”

Pls read only at pinkmuffintl.

“Yes? Yes!”

The driver hastily ran to call someone.

Meanwhile, Killian handled the dagger that fell on the floor.

“Aren’t you hurt?”

After organizing the situation, he checked Sophia’s condition.

Sophia nodded her head.

“I’m okay. To this extent…”

At that moment, her legs lost strength and her body staggered.

‘What…?’

“Sophia…!”

As her body staggered, his arms wrapped around her.

His scent strokes the tip of her nose.

Sophia was caught by him and her eyes widened.

“Are you okay?”

Killian asked about her condition with a serious expression.

Sophia’s heart was pounding…out of embarrassment rather than excitement.

‘Hey, what old-fashioned cliché is this?’

A woman who suddenly stumbles and a man who catches her is a boring scene that appears in a morning drama!

“I’m fine!”

Sophia pushed him away in embarrassment and got her body up.

“Well, what were you thinking…”

“Oh no! It’s not like that…!”

It’s not like she was fighting a thief.

To be honest, spending too much energy on shopping was a bigger problem.

But Killian did not believe her words.

“Look, I am strong!”

But Sophia’s arms were too thin to show off her strength.

Killian put her back on his back and cleared up the situation.

Then people flocked in.

The woman, who had been crying because the bag was stolen by a thief, also ran.

Sophia grabbed her bag and returned it to her.

“Thank you. Thank you…!”

The lady bowed her head repeatedly, expressing her gratitude.

Afterwards, the coachman brought two men in black uniforms.

Charisma flowed from the two men with swords around their waists.

“It’s a military police force!”

Those who found them grumbled.

‘Military and police force?’

It was an unfamiliar name, but it was words she had seen one day when she was recognizing her fiancée, Killian.

As she listened, useful information soon arrived.

The military police force was an institution directly under the imperial family in charge of the imperial security and security.

It is a special group of knights and soldiers who have been specially trained for tasks.

Above all, the military and police force, as a direct organization of the imperial family, was powerful in investigation and execution.

By analogy, it would fit best with the image of the National Police Agency or the National Intelligence Service, but would you say that it has more of a Knights Templar set in the rofan empire?

And…

‘Then, is the commander Archduke Rivelon?’

A uniformed police officer stood in front of Killian politely and saluted.

“Commander!”

Killian glanced at the saluting police officer and pointed to the thief.

“Take care of it.”

Killian said, handing the dagger to them.

Sophia saw the people’s eyes looking at Killian and the police officers.

The twinkling eyes that saw even the apostles of justice.

It’s a fact she learned later, but the security has improved noticeably after Killian took over as chief of the military and police force.

In addition, despite holding great power, he exercised his power without corruption and had a very good reputation among the aristocrats.

Thanks to this background, the imperial family also trusted Killian deeply.

“Sophia.”

Killian, who entrusted the post-processing of the case to the military police, called her.

“…Would you rather go home?”

Killian was concerned about her health.

“No!”

Sophia shook her head.

She came out wearing a matching pretty dress at best, and she can’t go back to her attic.

He smiled at her determined eyes and nodded his head.

“Where are we going now?”

“Shouldn’t we show that you’re not a maid?”
