I’m a Villainess but So Popular

Episode 64

The three people who found out that I was really upset immediately shut their mouths and lowered their hands.

Eventually, the four of us were silently gathered in the middle of the ball until one song was over.

The expectation that they may be able to develop deeper with their own partner, or the joy that comes from the fact that they dance with that person. Within such emotions, we really stood out as we wandered among people with twinkling faces.

When the orchestra finally finished playing one song, we were able to get out into the corner.

All three of them gave me an apology with their eyes down.

“I’m sorry to trouble you, Yerine….”

“Spade, this time it’s real… I was sorry.”

“I’m so sorry, Yerine. This won’t happen again.”

When I saw these three people standing in a row and saying they’re sorry, I felt as if I was seeing the students taking instruction in front of the dormitory supervisor.

On top of that, all three seemed to reflect steadily.

Seeing them speak in a melancholy voice with a very regretful expression.

‘Well, isn’t this good enough?’

I sighed and thought with my arms folded.

It seemed like it wasn’t a good choice to keep blaming the three of them in a place where everyone smiles with a happy expression.

Besides, Eugene has even finished performing, so he will be very tired mind and body.

“I knew for now. All three, look up.”

Then three pairs of eyes with different colours looked at me.

It was similar to the puppies who had been messing around the house, turning their ears up and looking around when the owner’s mood was relieved.

“I won’t talk about this anymore. I think all three of you have self-reflected, and from now on, don’t fight each other, okay?”

Cassius quickly apologized.

“I’m so sorry, Yerine, I have any excuse. I promise you that will never happen again.”

“Okay.”

“I’m truly sorry.”

His apology was neither long nor unique.

Still, he was honest, and I felt the depth.

Really, it was an apology that looked like him.

“It’s all right.”

My answer to such an apology was as calm as a lake without a boat.

Although it was a humble answer, Cassius smiled slightly, blinking his soft golden pupil.

“You might don’t even want to hear this now, but I’m so sorry, I’m really not going to fight anymore.”

Erica also walked out with a sombre look on her face, holding my hand tight and talking.

I’m sure it’s because I’m covered in beans, but in my eyes, Erica seemed to have the most melancholy look of the three.

‘She’s probably depressed because she thinks she was a nuisance for me.’

Originally, it shouldn’t be a nuisance to others, but how can I bury my heroine, who shows a sincere reflection?

“It’s all right now, Erica.”

I said, clasping her one remaining hand together.

“Really…..?

I laughed at her pink eyes twitching around because of the tears in her eyes.

“Of course, we are still friends now and in the future.”

When Erica heard me, she bit her lips and frowned. It seemed she was desperately trying not to cry. When I saw her like that, my mind turned white.

I shouldn’t have come all this way and make my heroine cry.

“Thank you, Yerine.”

But she soon smiled broadly.

With a dazzling smile in her eyes as if cherry blossoms were fluttering, I smiled face to face at her, and Erica stepped back, slightly stealing the corner of her eyes with her sleeves.

“Spade.”

“Yeah.”

The blue eyes, which had always breathed ice-cold air, had a heavy glow.

Usually, when I looked into his eyes, I felt as if I had been stabbed by a sharp weapon. But today was different.

It was more like a round, heavy, rock-like feeling.

When I was still looking at Eugene’s eyes, he suddenly bowed down.

“I’m sorry. I’ve caused you trouble.”

That was the words that flowed from the top of the silver lining.

‘……he’s uselessly serious about everything.’

He was an honest fellow with no tricks.

“Get up. You don’t have to go that far.”

Then Eugene raised her head and said,

“Because it’s right for me to apologize.”

I thoughtlessly burst into laughter when I saw him like that.

“No thanks. People see it all. There would be a rumour saying that the Spade’s heir has been tormenting Ace’s heir.”

When I smiled and spoke like that, Rachel added a word.

“That’s right, Eugene. That’s rather noticeable.”

Only then did Eugene raise his head, scratching his head awkwardly with a slightly red face.

“Anyway, I’m sorry.”

“Yes, it’s all right now.”

Eugene jerked his head away when he heard my answer.

But I didn’t miss his two ears turning as red like a scarlet radish.

“By the way, what this is about. I can’t believe the seven heirs and the prince and the commoner student are thinking of duelling over their favourite one.”

Rayl said, stretching and raising one eyebrow.

“You guys shut up. If you don’t want to be spellbound.”

Eugene still snapped with a red face.

“Oh, you’re going to get in trouble with Yerine again? You know, it’s because Yerine is a big-hearted man, but if you keep doing that, you really get hated by her.”

Astra said, giggling next to Rayl.

“You’re noisy. I didn’t get in trouble.”

So Eugene hit back without losing.

I talked to Cassius watching the three quarrels.

“If you look at that, I think Astra and Rayl are really good at making fun of Eugene. How can they make fun of him by picking up only the points that make him angry like that?”

“Isn’t it because the three of them spent a lot of time together?”

“But honestly, don’t you think that’s a gift?”

Rachel came sideways to my question.

“That’s right. I honestly think so, too. I’ve known Eugene for a while, but I haven’t been on the same level as them.”

Then Erica also stepped in and asked the question.

“But, isn’t Eugene Ace’s personality tolerant of that?”

It was right.

Eugene didn’t put up with the guy who was just treating him.

“How have those kids been doing fine so far?”

Rachel replied in a low-pitched voice to Erica’s question.

“To be honest, they’ve already been hit by Eugene’s attack magic a few times.”

Everyone exclaimed ‘Ah’ at her words.

“But, as heirs to the seven families, both of them recovered pretty quickly.”

“And then they made fun of Eugene again?”

“Yeah.”

While we were having this conversation, Astra and Rayl didn’t stop teasing Eugene.

Eugene’s eyes were full of thoughts of getting rid of the troublesome children in front of him, but Astra and Rayl did away with Eugene and made worldly joyful faces.

“Well, I’m glad he looks happy.”

The other three, including me, looked at him with an incredible look at Cassius’s words to himself.

“Do you really think so? Eugene doesn’t seem to be happy, it seems like he’ll kill a person.”

When Erica pointed out, Cassius turned his eyes and answered.

“With such personality, if he was really going to kill them, he would have already killed them. It’s okay because they’re still alive.”

It wasn’t wrong, but Rachel and Erica were silent about his very laissez-faire remarks.

So was I, and then there was an awkward silence.

I couldn’t stand the silence, so I thought I had to evoke the atmosphere.

‘Is there anything interesting? Something we can all do together.….’

Just then, applause and cheers came from the corner of the banquet hall.

“Oh, look at the colour!”

“How pretty! Besides, it looks delicious!”

Hundreds of glasses were stacked in layers at the corner of the banquet hall, forming a fountain.

A pink liquid began to flow through the glass, which looked like a huge piece of the crystal when it was empty, and the pink smoke coming out of the liquid was enough to attract people’s attention.

On top of that, the sticky and sweet scent from the liquid wrapped the entire banquet hall, and it felt like it was surrounded by cotton candy that deeply breathed the scent of melting bubble gum.

Soon, people put empty glasses under the stacked glass and began to drink the liquid flowing down.

“Wait for me here. I’ll get it for everyone.”

As I said so, the moment I stepped out, Cassius grabbed my arm and said.

“That’s too much. There are seven of us, let me come with you.”

Then I lightly pushed his arm and smiled.

“I can use air magic. Don’t worry. It’ll take a while because the line is long, but I’ll be right back

Cassius tilted his head slightly, but eventually let me go with a smile as if he couldn’t help it.

“That’s true. You’d be better than me.”

“Right? Anyway, I’ll be right back.”

I headed to the corner of the banquet hall excitedly at the thought of getting a sweet bubble gum-scented drink.

‘If you look at a fantasy novel, the drinks in the banquet hall look so delicious, would this be delicious too?’

The scent grew stronger while standing in line waiting for the turn.

Every time I did that, I licked my lips with my tongue.

Finally, when it was my turn and faced the tower of a huge glass of glass, I breathed in the scent of bubble gum and saw the liquid, which seemed to hold the light of the tourmaline, lightly flapping.

‘Oh, this is for sure. It has to be delicious.’

Thinking so, I bounced my finger and put seven empty glasses next to me to the tower of the glass, where the liquid was flowing down.

‘That’s why magic is comfortable. If there is no magic, I have to take it one by one.’

It didn’t take much time to fill the seven glasses.

After I had finished drinking, I flipped my finger again and floated the glass in the air, and I moved to see Cassius and the group gathered across the corner.

It was just then.

“Miss Yerine Spade?”

I heard a voice calling my name.

I then looked back at the touch of my shoulder.

‘Oh, it’s an important moment.’

I was afraid of spilling this delicious drink over people’s heads if I was distracted a little.

When I tried to hide my irritation and turned around carefully with a business smile, the man with a black robe stood still.

‘This guy, he was in the VIP seat.’

He was the very man who did not wear any of the things that represented his identity, and could not know who he was until the end.

“Would you like to talk to me?”

Why would he call me at this moment when I am carrying some drinks and need detailed control?

“Well, that’s…”

“Right now, I want to talk to you.”

Frowning at the oddly overbearing tone of speech, I happened to see something glistening in his robe, with only his nose and mouth exposed.

And at that moment, I realized that the drink is not important now.

“… let’s go.”

I put the glass back on the table, said in a slightly cracked voice.
