Chapter 27
“…Little Miss.”
I was going to leave because he wasn’t moving.
“?”
The shoes I was wearing rattled.
His index finger and thumb holding my shoes were trembling.
Agasa managed to raise his head as if he didn’t know how to give up.
“I said it was the first question, I’m not done yet.”
“Didn’t I win?”
“How would I know what kind of person my future spouse will be? It was just a joke.”
“Why did you joke around like that? Such a busy man.”
Phew.
Shrugging my shoulders, I squirmed and sat down in the adult chair.
The test continued.
“Then, when will Master Kai and Bian return?”
I lost my focus because of the trivial Agasa.
A family topic that came out of nowhere.
“…”
Only then did the test, which seemed like a joke, feel serious.
Agasa’s blue eyes also calmly sunk, as if this question was really the main topic.
‘This is a question in favor of Agasa.’
He knew all the schedules of the Vallois bloodline.
On the other hand, I have never seen my older brothers in this life.
“…A month later?”
It was when he breathed a sigh of relief at my answer.
“That’s wrong, as expected, my future spouse…”
“According to the original schedule, they would have had to come a year later. But something came up, that’s why they came back in a month. Maybe a letter will come from the Academy in a week?”
“…Pardon?”
As a regressor, of course, I should know.
Satisfied with Agasa’s dumbfounded reaction, I threw in another bonus prophecy.
“And a week later. Lisa will be wearing twin swords out of nowhere.”
“…Lisa is a maid. She wouldn’t normally have a reason to wear a sword.”
Of course, it was like that.
But Lisa just did everything I asked for.
I make my future!
Sensing victory in this test, I clenched my fists tightly, and he fell silent while glancing at me as if it were ridiculous.
It’s an ‘I can’t believe you’ gaze.
However, you can’t just ignore this mysterious princess who uncovered Vallois’ classified documents.
“…Let’s assume I believe you. Then, how many years in the future can you see?”
“When I turn 19.”
“After that?”
“I can’t see anything.”
Because I died after that.
“The reason you tried to tear up the documents related to the fund was because you saw the future, right?”
“Yeah.”
“…So what did you see?”
Everyone dies.
When I remembered Vallois, who died on death row, the corners of my lips as I was smiling with victory, sank heavily.
I couldn’t talk about this.
Even passing dogs would laugh at the fact that the Vallois family, which is currently among the four largest families in the Rolls Empire, would go extinct.
“…Does Vallois lose their status?”
After taking a sip of coffee, he asked nervously.
“If it’s only to that extent, it’ll be a relief.”
“…Does that mean it’s irreparably ruined? Vallois is?”
“…”
“Wait a minute. If Vallois’ condition isn’t good and the future of the Princess isn’t in sight from the age of 19.”
It was then.
“!”
Perhaps imagining something, Agasa suddenly grabbed my cotton fist.
He looked desperate and hopeless as if he didn’t want to miss someone who was about to die.
“No way. No way, Princess… Umpf.”
“Eat some bread.”
Yeah. You’re smart.
After putting bread in Agasa’s mouth to silence him, I gnawed at Higgs’ cake.
Still, I was glad that Agasa was someone who knew who I was.
Because he was more serious about Vallois than anyone else.
“I will change the future.”
“Pardon?”
“…That’s why I need a little help. I only have you. Someone who knows who I am.”
“F-First of all…”
Chew, chewㅡ
Agasa swallowed the bread and wrinkled his face, perhaps because it was difficult to speak due to the bread I put in his mouth.
“… After a week, we’ll see if the predictions come true.”
“Alright.”
“If Little Miss’s prophecy is fulfilled.”
Agasa sighed as he couldn’t bear to say what he intended to.
He obviously didn’t want to believe it.
From the fall of Vallois to his future spouse with small details.
But after a weekㅡ
A sudden letter visited Vallois’ Castle, and an ordinary maid suddenly wore twin swords at her waist.
Seeing this bizarre scene with his own two eyes, the Chief Aide had no choice but to kneel down and be loyal to me.
***
“Little Miss is right.”
“W-What does that mean? Sir Agasa?”
“Yes. Aga is correct!”
“That’s true. Little Miss is right.”
A leisure afternoonㅡ
After struggling for a long time with Higgs’ strawberry cake in front of me and Lisa, Agasa suddenly participated in the war.
Now he was an indispensable reliable henchman when I tried to change the original story.
And even in this everyday situationㅡ
“The Princess ate three pieces of cake already, and if you eat more here, it will be bad for your health!”
In spite of Lisa’s protest, which was a hundred times more correct, Agasa steadfastly put his palms together.
“…Everything Little Miss does has a reason, Miss Lisa. So don’t stop her.”
“Pardon?”
Surprised by Agasa’s 180-degree change of attitude, Lisa opened her mouth wide.
“Yes, LisaaaㅡI won’t die just by eating one more cake.”
I rested my arms leisurely on the back of my head and hummed while resting my plump legs on the desk.
“!”
Lisa, who was about to get angry, hesitated for a moment.
Having grasped the situation, she realized that Agasa and I were on the same side, so she slammed the door and disappeared.
Oh my, living in the world is so comfortableㅡ
To think that Agasa is on my side!
‘Hihi. Should I ask for a whole cake instead of a piece?’
It was time to munch on the remaining cake, soaked in sweet imagination.
“…So what will happen?”
“What?”
Agasa whispered with an expression as if he knew everything after he came to my side.
“Isn’t there a reason why you want to eat four pieces of cake right now?”
“…”
“Is this all a big picture for Vallois?”
He can’t have a religion.
I hardened my expression at the absurd appearance of the believer and nodded my head with a serious heart.
“…This, if I eat cake, I will be happy, right?”
“Yes.”
“Because I’m Vallois, my happiness means the Vallois family’s happiness.”
Munchㅡ
Seriously munching on a piece of cake, I gave a thumbs up.
“For the happiness of Vallois.”
“… As expected of Miss Prophet… You think of all of that.”
“Right? Then Aga, if I ate all the desserts…”
Dangleㅡ
It was then.
“If you ate cake for Vallois, you might as well brush your teeth for Vallois.”
“!”
When Agasa, whose expression changed out of nowhere, lifted my armpit, the happiness on my face as I munched on the cake was shattered.
“Now, shall we go brush your teeth for the sake of Vallois’ health?”
“I’ll just eat the cake. I’ll eat all the cake!”
“Miss Prophet. I was only loyal to your foresight, I didn’t intend to become a pushover.”
Struggleㅡ
Damn it.
I’ve always thought about it, but one shouldn’t underestimate Agasa!
When I raised my head.
Perhaps he was annoyed that he was almost tricked by me, his blue eyes were frightening.
Shiverㅡ
“And I have been ordered by His Grace to provide the utmost safety and assistance for Little Miss. So, I have to keep Little Miss’s teeth safe.”
“!”
Akh! I wondered if I had caught a pushover, though!
Thus, I was handed over to Lisa with an evil smile.
Forcibly brushing my teeth, I was even guaranteed freedom with my hair tied in two ponytails as revenge for Lisa’s anger.
“…It’s hard, I want to escape from the world.”
Heavy stepㅡ
I’m a direct descendant of Vallois, yet I can’t even brush my teeth as I please.
“…Why can’t I even eat cake the way I want!”
I was bewildered and screamed to myself.
‘The servants wouldn’t have been able to make a sound if I had been faithful as the villain’s daughter, but in this life, I changed the concept so I can’t even get angry.’
“Because Lisa and Agasa only say the right things!”
Pluck, pluck.
Why are you saying all the right things?
I can’t even say anything!
“Ugggghhh!”
I’m still angry.
Eventually calmed down after plucking the fields of Vallois randomly with the authority of the Princess.
“…Phew, it’s hard to have a temper like the daughter of a villain, so I need to find a way to relieve stress like this.”
I felt relieved as I sweated in my own way.
“The sun is so warm.”
Is the afternoon slowly passing?
The sunset filled with orange light began to set.
“…Shall I take a nap like this?”
I didn’t want to go into the castle right away.
I feel like I’ll be heartbroken again when I see Lisa and Agasa’s face in this mood.
Swoopㅡ
Choosing an outdoor nap, I laid down quietly on the field I had plowed and went to sleep.
It was an act that made no sense as a noble.
But it’s my castle and my house, who cares?
I also wanted to give them some kind of warning that I was angry.
“…Princess?”
I’m falling asleep so slowly.
“Never mind me, knights.”
I waved my hands at the voices of the knights who came to scout, then raised my head.
“Ah, before you go, just cover me with the big leaves over there.”
“…Pardon?”
“Don’t ask, cover me up. I want to be alone now.”
The knights, who were confused by the coy answer, covered me with leaves as ordered.
“Thank you. Please go now.”
“Y-Yes…”
I closed my eyes using a leaf the size of my body as a blanket.
Whether it’s the Princess of Vallois.
Whether it’s the Prophet of the Rolls Empire.
Today, I, Billishia, wanted to get away from all worldly things and take a nap.
“B-Billie?”
It was then.
By the time I went into a deep dive.
A strong grip suddenly grabbed my shoulder.
My body shook like an earthquake.
Ugh, who is it!
“…W-Why are your eyes closed? No way…”
I was about to get up, yet I felt a sudden hand on my skin and flinched.
Shoulders, arms.
And even the palm of my hands.
‘I should be angry.’
If someone touches me without my permission, I must stop them.
Yet my body hardened like ice.
The fingertips groping and caressing my arm were intermittently shaking.
As if the world had collapsed.
“…This is what happened because she said she liked me.”
“…”
“Because Billishia is someone stubborn who doesn’t even listen to her parents, she must have rebelled against the owner, so the owner…”
It was a youthful voice that seemed to shake if touched.
There was only one person in the Duke’s castle with such a voice.
“…Sian?”
I got up and tried to check on the other person, yet out of nowhere, moist water crashed into my eyes.
Surprised, I swiped the water with the back of my hand and jumped up.
“Huwaaaa! Hicc, Bill, Billie…”
Sian was weeping in joy.
