The Villain’s Sister Suffers Today
Chapter 82

Episode 82.

“Why? I don’t know either. When I was told to kill her, I said, ‘Okay, I got it.’ so I came to kill her. Why do you guys need the reason to do the work?”

The man giggled pleasantly at the situation. He was the only one smiling here, but he continued to speak with a smile on his face.

“Anyway, I’m explaining it to you as much as I can, so listen, we were heading to the dukedom to eliminate the target. From the northern border.”

‘The border?’

“We really come from afar, aren’t we? That’s right, I think so, too. That’s how important the target was. So we shouldn’t fail.”

“….….”

“But while I was moving like that, I arrived at a village on the way. Then I heard some people searching for the princess. I don’t know why they have to find you there.”

The man pointed alternately at the members of the Dark Knights who had fallen on the floor with the tip of the dagger.

“When I heard it, I thought ‘Opps, she was our target’. Wow, I thought we were screwed. Don’t we?”

The man acted as if he wanted a response, but it was quiet around him. He shrugged and continued.

“You know, I didn’t know if they tried to kill you, but they needed to find you and search for you. So I thought, how could I catch someone who suddenly went missing and couldn’t even figure out where the target was? It’s kind of hopeless.”

“…….”

“How do I do this? I’m doomed. Then, just in time, I came up with a good idea.”

“That good idea. Do you mean this situation?”

A member of the Dark Knights who managed to a standstill after getting his side cut sharpened his teeth

The man flicked his finger.

“Bingo, you said the name of the guy I stabbed was Jimmy. He looked smart. I could find something good if I stuck around a smart guy. So I took a couple of guys and borrowed some clothes, and I was a member of your team for a while.”

“You……!”

“I didn’t like having to crawl back into the forest I’d crossed, but, as a result, I’ve found my target.”

The man said so and looked back at me again.

It wasn’t something I could do, but I naturally had strength in my body.

“Honestly, I didn’t expect to find you. I left half of the hope to heaven. I think it’s right that heaven is on my side.”

“You bastard! Who the hell is he?”

“Hey, don’t ask me what I can’t answer. You know, who’s gonna tell anyone about the client’s information? You should follow the princess.”

The man jagged at me and grinned.

“You know you’re not going to tell me if you ask, you’re not going to ask me anything, and you’re not going to run because you know it’s no use running away. How wise.”

“…..”

To be honest, I’d run away if my ankle was fine. I didn’t feel pleasant because I thought he was teasing me, but I just stayed still because I didn’t think it would be any good to try to catch his attention.

“As expected, look at her, she even not get angry. I like her so much.”

I would have shouted actually.

“Nice to meet you, wise princess, you know we don’t have any personal feelings, do you? I’ll kill you as painlessly as I can. I don’t really like pretty girls getting pain, either.”

“How dare you! Don’t even think to touch the princess’ hair!”

“What, did you try to stop me? Arthur, I wonder what you can do to us who are finely and healthy, while you’re dying? What if I killed you all first? Do you get stronger when you become a corpse? Huh?”

The man was sarcastic. He looked so ridiculous to the extent that I wanted to beat him, but there was nothing wrong with his words. There are only two members of the Dark Knights who are standing still.

Even that has just been reduced to one alone. Because the other one fainted, unable to overcome the bleeding from the wound. And the other one was still technically just ‘struggling’. He was also bleeding in an irresistible amount of blood somewhere in his body.

“Ugh…….!”

He seemed to be starting to lose his mind. It was worth it. Actually, I think it’s great that he’s been standing up and not lying down.

I was ready to be left alone soon. I raised my head stiffly and looked at the man. Who could it be?

Frankly speaking, it wasn’t that I wasn’t curious. No, to be honest, I was curious. Who the hell is trying to kill me? And why?

‘But there’s no way to know.’

It was true that I didn’t ask because he wouldn’t let me know as he said before.

‘Dying in the midst of death with curiosity.’

It was absurd. The wrong circumstances were unfair and outrageous, and a little funny. And on the other hand, the mood was more complicated than that.

As far as I can tell, I was now unable to tell whether this situation was unlucky or lucky. I couldn’t cross the border for the purpose anyway and was caught before. If it hadn’t come to this, I would have died at the hands of Ash as the original story written.

Then, wouldn’t this side be better than that? It’s better to die without even knowing the reason for someone you don’t even know.

‘Yes, this is better.’

Better. This side, much better.

I looked at the man with a determined look. I didn’t want to beg for help, since I knew it wouldn’t work.

The man stood out in front of me.

“Princess, did you just see that? Even the last one to hold out had to fall down. Look.”

“……..”

“The princess is left alone, with us. And you’re still so calm?”

“So are you complaining?”

I tried not to answer back, but when I was about to die, I couldn’t help but say a word because this jerk kept doing it.

The man burst out laughing.

“No, no complaints! I like you more and more.”

“I don’t like you.”

“I thought so. I understand, but I can’t help it.”

The man fixed the dagger.

Oh, he’s going to kill me now.

“Who would say that she likes the guy who’s trying to kill her? I’m afraid…..you have to endure it. Oh, but don’t blame me too much. It’s true that I would make it as painless as I can. I’m an expert. I’ll finish it quickly.”

Yes, thank you very much.

“Good-bye, Princess.”

My heart thumped.

I’m dying.

This is how it ends.

My hands were full of sweat. My chest tightened and my back was stiff. I clenched my teeth because my legs were about to shake. It’s an unexpected last, but not the worst. Yeah, at least it’s better than the worst I’ve ever imagined.

I closed my eyes first before the man could lift the dagger, thinking so.

Ah.

‘I miss him.’

I missed Ash. Just before I died, I wanted to see his face, thinking it was a relief that I didn’t die at his hands.

I was overcome with laughter by the unknowing greed.

“Now you close your eyes calmly ahead of your death? Well, the more I look at you, the more I feel like you’re worth being killed.”

“Captain.”

“Don’t talk to me. I can’t be distracted by the shaking of my heart. I have to finish it at once so I won’t hurt her.”

“Captain.”

“Tell me after you kill her.”

“Captain!”

“Oh, you bastard! I can’t believe you! I told you to tell me after……”

The voice of the man who was angry with his subordinates died down.

“……what is that?”

I opened my eyes. It’s because I’m suddenly curious about the man’s voice, but at the same time, I heard something ringing in my ears.

Thump, thump~

……ha.

“That’s what…….”

“……Monster?”

Thump, thump, thump~

The echo grew louder and louder. And along with that, the visible scene became clear.

Monster.

In this world, the so-called creatures were gathering, filling the sights with blackness.

“Wh, what? What happened! What the hell are those?”

“Is this a forest with creatures like those?”

“But when we come across this forest before……”

While the conversation was chaotic between the man and his men, the monster gradually got closer.

The monsters have filled all side to the extent I could not count how much those were.

After a while, I and the men were completely surrounded by monsters.

“Thi, this is crazy…….”

“That’s ridiculous. I’ve never heard of this……….”

The voice of the man and his subordinate was trembling like an aspen leaf.

The pressure from the monsters surrounding us was enormous. I couldn’t overcome the pressure and stepped back, but I fell down when I accidentally sprained my injured ankle.

‘This is the monster?’

It was my first time seeing a monster in person. Let alone this much number of monsters.

Suddenly, it occurred to me that Ash’s reason for going south was due to a monster raid.

‘Is this the one he needs to catch?’

…… is it even possible?

The monster’s appearance was more threatening than imagined.

Almost three meters tall, rough and tough-looking skin like a beast’s skin, with fangs as big as an adult’s head.

I had no idea how they were hunting that.

“Hiiikkk…”

The moment I thought so, one of the man’s men suddenly jumped at the monster.

“That stupid!”

The man seemed to be a flagship, but he was late.

The man’s load jumped off the ground and drew his sword to the monster’s arm, but was subsequently cut to the head by another monster right next to him.

The skeleton of the corpse was terrible. I turned my head away without looking there.

“Da, damn it. What the hell is this?”

After the loss of one life, the man and his men became cautious. Of course, that didn’t mean anything can actually be done.

The sound of breathing and dryness.

A strange stillness filled the place.

And I realized after a while in that condition.

‘….. those monsters…. they don’t attack us’

That’s what monsters do. They were more fierce than an animal and more ferocious than a beast, and when they met a man they did not let go. In other words, if you encounter a monster, you will die. At least that’s what I heard.

‘But why are they so calm?’

Now, these monsters just swarmed in and haven’t been doing anything since.

The man’s colleague died because he attacked first. No one else has been hurt yet. I soon found something else. Monsters were circling exactly around something, not just me and the men.

Luggage?

What’s in the luggage?

“The enchanted cloth?”

No way. But now there was no assumption other than that to explain the situation.

I read the situation so I could take a chance then flung myself through the luggage. My ankle screamed, but I could hug my luggage instead.

A man who seemed to have noticed something belatedly came up to me and tried to take my luggage away. But the monster moved and blocked it.

“……..!”

I was right!

There really was something in this bag. It would be necessary to confirm whether it is definitely the enchanted cloth.

“What have you done? What’s in your luggage?”

Well, I’ll answer the question if I know the answer. By the way, I don’t know what else to do anymore. I kept my luggage, but that was all.

I was still full of monsters everywhere, and I couldn’t move right away because I overworked my sore ankle.

It was then.

“Woo….”

“Woo-woo…”

Monsters looked at one place in unison with a grotesque cry.

Low crying, atrophied posture.

They looked as if they were scared.

‘The monster’s scared?’

I turned away and stared in the same direction as the monster.

Soon a few monsters, who were filling the place tightly, fell down one after another, and one person was seen standing between them.

I stopped breathing.

Ash.

It was Ash.
