Because She Had A Time Limit, She Became The Villain’s Daughter-in-law

At his words, I briefly recalled where I had transmigrated.

Conquering the world, I didnt possess a character from some hero movie, did I? Otherwise, Sven must have been possessed by another weird person

Miss Laria will grant us our long-cherished desire.

Your long-cherished dream?

Yes, I want to repeat what I have said Please, be our master.

I didnt want to be surprised at what he had said, though I almost jumped up when I heard master.

What is he talking about?

You want me to be the owner of the Vestian Dark Information Guild?

Serena then rushed in, noticing my absurd expression.

Miss Laria, listen till the end for a second. Its not a big deal. We are not asking Miss Laria to be the guild leader like Sven.

Then, what are you saying?

With a common goal with us so that our work in the underworld isnt caught in the surface.

Huh?

Thats why were asking you to be the mastermind!

At their words, I opened my mouth wide.

Its not enough to steal the male leads role. Now, they want me to steal my father-in-laws role?

Hearing her words, I hurriedly shook my head and Serena snapped at my hand.

Miss Laria is the best! Youre so cut out for it!

No, why is my aptitude a mastermind? Im just good at acting!

Thats why its perfect for you!

Serena then added firmly, And, you want to be in that position with southwestern social standing. To put someone in front and actually lead the whole board in the back Its perfect!

I couldnt argue much because I once told Serena that I would actually put Kate as a screen.

Youre good at acting, youre different from the outside, youre a little, uh insidious, and youre a little greedy

I see, Serena. Thank you so much.

I spoke with my eyes squinted.

I enjoyed your objective and honest assessment of me.

Thats a compliment. I mean, I like you because youre so mean!

Leaving behind Serenas bewildered expression, I got back to business.

I guess thats not the only reason youre going to tell me if I should be the master or not. Im sure there are other factors.

Thats very sharp of you.

First, lets discuss what youve said about world domination. What the hell are you talking about? Are you going to use me as a general to wage war?

Please let me explain everything.

Saying that, Sven continued in a low voice.

This chapter upload first at NovelUsb.Com

Let me introduce him first, Neo.

As I was looking around for someone else, Serena said softly, This is Mr. Neo.

Meow~

.

Well, how do I interpret this situation where they speak respectfully, even saying mister when talking about a cat?

Looking at my expression that was smeared with bewilderment, Sven opened his mouth again.

Its the devils embodiment.

What did you say?

He looks like a normal black cat, but hes the devil who made the world crack with black magic.

Black magic It is very ominous just hearing that.

He came to this world on a contract with someone. We want to live in a world of black magic. I want to confirm its greatness with my own eyes.

Nevertheless, the common sense I learned in my childhood came out of my mouth.

No, I replied firmly.

Black magic is wrong to exist in this world. Dont do anything in vain and give up. Even black magic that is not properly authorized by the Imperial Family is illegal outside of the Magic Tower.

Though it does exist.

Sven insisted, pointing to Neo.

Heres the evidence. Sir Neo, Im sorry, but please show Miss Laria the power of the devil.

Neo, who was on my lap, slowly blinked. And, he jumped up and down

Wait, did he just jump?

Eeck!

Neo walked gracefully in the air.

Th-this is ridiculous!

All the magic that exists in this world was possessed by things. Black magic was a generic term for the magic of life. Therefore, it meant that an ordinary cat could not behave beyond common sense. Especially, being able to float freely like this was something that really needed to be demonized

Meow~

The cat stared down at me in the air as if it was laughing at me.

It was then

Baby, nice to meet you!

A strange voice could be heard from somewhere.

What Wh-what?

Instinctively, I could tell that this voice was made by Neo, the cat in front of my eyes.

My energy alone is not enough to talk for a long time.

I silently blinked in surprise.

Whats that about the devil Besides, a cat at that!

E-energy? W-what energy are you talking about?

I answered first, but this was unacceptable. A cat talking and its a demon I couldnt believe it existed in the first place!

While I was panicking, I stared at Neo stupidly and blankly.

But, since I am glad to see you, Ill give you a little present.

Even though it was devastating, I immediately came to my senses at the word gift, and I answered quickly and clearly.

It doesnt have to be small. I like big presents.

My urgent greed overcame my bashfulness. Neo then lifted his front paws and put them on my forehead.

I had put a layer of protection on your mind.

Im mentally strong. Can you give me something physical, not mental?

Dont talk back to me. Just take it. Baby, you

His voice drastically receded once again.

Why stop talking! Its frustrating! Why!

Meow~

When I grabbed Neo and shouted and pressed for an answer, Neo only cried like a cat again.

Miss Laria?

Seeing what was happening, Sven stared at me carefully.

Did you just communicate with Sir Neo?

Is he always a good speaker? What do I have to do to make him say more?

Sven and Serena looked at each other at the same time.

Weve never heard what Sir Neo was saying. What did he say?!

Gazing at me, expectations were all the way down in their eyes.

He-he said hes glad to see me.

Since it was rather difficult to say that this little cat called me baby, I vaguely glossed over it and told them other things instead.

As expected!

Oh, my God!

Sven and Serena shouted at the same time, and I turned a blind eye to their anticipated look.

B-b-but

I turned away from the devil in front of me and shook my head desperately while explaining my thoughts.

Theres a reason why black magic is prohibited in public. Its magic that shakes the world itself, so it breaks the rules.

Of course, I shamelessly added that after I had just received the devils gift without any hesitation.

I dont want to get involved because I feel uncomfortable.

However

Even the Imperial Palace strictly prohibits it. Ill be detained if I get caught, and I dont want to cooperate with that.

Still, Miss Laria is chosen by Sir Neo. Youre no ordinary person.

Why the hellWhy me?

I dont know. Perhaps, Miss Laria has something to do with black magic, or you have what it takes to be a black wizard.

Saying so, Sven slowly took Neo from my lap and put it back on his shoulder.

Weve already researched that youve never been involved in black magic, so youre probably the one who can be a black wizard.

Well, I dont really remember being involved in black magic, anyway

I dont even know much about black magic.

Anyway, I could totally see why Sven needed me because he wanted me to study black magic.

There were two ways to use black magic:

1. A black wizard uses black magic. It is allowed for research purposes only at the Magic Tower. Other than that, using itself is illegal, so most black wizards hide their identity and live secretly.

2. Ordinary people summon demons and use black magic with the consent of the aristocrats.

It can only be used at the altar of the imperial palace with the permission of the Imperial Family.

Of course, black magic is hard to access. I understand that you have a repulsion.

Sven expressed as he swept his chin.

Though its a very attractive field. It means that you can go beyond human limits. Miss Laria, arent you attracted by just the thought of it?

No, Im not attracted at all.

You can control the world from behind. You could be the Queen of the world behind the curtains.

Sorry, I dont like feeling uncomfortable or risking my life. My safety is the most important thing.

If black magic is available, the dead may come back alive.

Thats against the rules.

Since when has Miss Laria became a person of reason

From this moment on. You are having a lot of faith in me that I didnt realize.

Youve never prayed before.

Thats After seeing the High Priest smiling madly at Duke Icards jokes, my faith skyrocketed

Miss Laria, Sven said in a hurry.

I mean, Larias mother, who died in a wagon accident, could come back alive. Dont you miss your mother?

I sighed once and answered calmly.

I dont know, would it be that simple to save a dead man? If thats the case, therell be a lot of chaos in the world.

Of course, its not simple.

His remark was stern.

As far as I know, the process is very complicated and constrained. Its a very difficult black magic that usually cant be done by just any black wizard. You have to summon the devil and sign a contract.

.

So, therell be no chaos in the world. It would be very hard to revive one person. Though the conditions are very difficult.

You dont have to explain. Regardless, Im not interested

Because a crack will appear when an unbaptized person destroys a holy relic.

While waving my hand to reject the offer, I halted.

Wait.

What was Sven saying?
