Level 99 Villainous Daughter

What do you mean your sister is being held hostage?

My little sister works at the main residence in the royal capital. She has nothing to do with this, please

Rita, who poisoned me says that her sister is being held hostage by my father. I should think of a way to deal with her after I rescue her sister.

Well, lets pick up your sister. Follow me, I dont know her face.

Eh? But Ive been poisoning you, my lady

Dont worry, you cant kill the hidden boss with poison.

Um, what?

Never mind. Lets go!

I unintentionally blurted out the knowledge from the game. Why am I so nervous about this? Is it because Ritas sister is in danger? No, maybe I was nervous since this will be the first time Ill meet my parents, and they wanted to kill me.

Ryuu! Come on!

We rode on Ryuus back and flew into the night sky heading to the Royal Capital. The high altitude coupled with Ryuus black skin made us difficult to spot from the ground.

Rita, where is the Dolknes family residence?

We were rushing out of the house, but I dont even know where my parents house is. I forced Rita to follow me even though she is afraid of heights, so she kept her eyes closed.

Can you tell me the way to the house from the Royal Castle? You dont need to open your eyes.

Y-yes. You go straight from the Royal Castles gate to the third main street to the right

Its as if we are looking at the map from the sky when I followed her directions. Because it was so dark that its hard to see the surroundings clearly, we relied on the buildings shape as the landmark.

two doors to the left.

When you go through the gate, go to the right?

Yes, the main residence building is L-shaped.

Compared to the residence in the territory, this one is bigger. They didnt want to go back to the territory, after all.

Rita, were getting off.

You cant do that, youll cause an uproar when you land in the garden.

Rita was worried that her sister is in danger, but the rest is assured.

Its okay, we will get off. Ryuu, fly above the house.

My lady, what are you

Im going to jump off without a parachute. Im a pro at this since I have been doing this many time now.

This chapter upload first at NovelUsb.Com

Im going to jump and sneak in now, dont make any noises, okay?

Rita shook her head in silence. I think she has prepared herself for her sister.

Thanks, Ryuu. You can fly around the area until I call you back.

With Rita held securely in my arms, I jumped off Ryuus back. Im trying to be careful not putting too much power to accelerate my jump.

She clung to me with her eyes closed and never leaked a voice out.

We slowed down as we approached the ground and landed in the garden.

We are here. Where is your sister?

I think shes in her usual workplace. My sister didnt know anything.

We sneaked in into the house with Ritas guidance and went to the servants quarter. We stopped in front of the door and made a small knocking noise.

Sara, its me, Rita.

Sis? What are you doing here?

The servants quarter were being shared along with several other people but right now theres only Ritas sister. I pushed Rita right into the room.

Right, come in.

Seeing her sister is safe, Rita who is filled with overwhelmed emotions threw her arms around her and began to cry. Sara who didnt know whats going on with her sister looked so confused.

Whats wrong?

I cant help but explain the situation.

Rita said you were being held hostage. You will be killed if Rita doesnt kill me.

Sara was surprised when I said the word kill. I shouldve explained it better. It might be better if I explained it with discretion.

Sorry, Sara. Thank you for all the time we spent together. My lady, please take care of my sister.

Sister?! What are you talking about?!

Rita bid farewell to Sara as if its their last encounter. Where did you get the idea you need to say goodbye anyway?

I wont hand you over to the soldier, you know.

Yes, I understand. If I wont be able to see my sister anymore

I wontsnapyou.

Im a monster if I didnt show any hesitation in killing you guys when you showed such affection to each other. Ive never killed anyone yet.

Moreover, she was being threatened and the real harm was I drank bad tea for a week. Its not something to worry. I wonder if this would make Patrick call me a good person or soft-hearted.

I dont want to punish you. But we will have a further discussion about this later.

My lady No, I swear my loyalty and lifelong service to Lady Yumiela.

I feel like a new misunderstanding has arisen after I have solved the previous one. Lets put this off for later.

Please wait in this room, theres still something I need to do.

I shouldve let them go but I wont be able to protect them since I must meet some people.

I headed in the direction Rita has mentioned. The hallways were empty as I reached the room. As I stood in front of the door, I mentally prepared myself.

I opened the door and two pairs of eyes stared at me. They were having a snack while drinking wine. They seemed happy.

Who are you? How did you get in?

Good evening, Im sorry for interrupting your time. Ah, would it have been better if I told you the reason why Im home?

Youre home? Black hair, oh no, dont tell me?!

Its nice to see you for the first time, Father, Mother. I am your daughter, Yumiela. The daughter that you tried to kill.

My parents looked more ordinary than I had anticipated. Looking at their situation, I imagined them to be fat and greasy, but they didnt have any distinctive features.

They have golden hair but we didnt share any resemblance. If they hadnt been living in this house, I wouldve doubted if they were my parents.

Damn those guys, I paid them a lot of gold

You are admitting that you tried to kill me.

Its because you betrayed us in the first place! Didnt you hate us for sending you off to our territory?!

From this meeting, I found out that I dont hate my parents that much. Of course, I dont think theyre suitable to become nobles, and they didnt raise me as if I was a delicate flower.

What do you mean by betrayal?

We know the moderates are planning to dispatch the troops. Because of your association with the moderates, you are putting us in a difficult situation.

I know Im closer to the moderate faction. But the reason is that I want to keep the extremists at a distance.

And the troops deployment?

Under the direct control of the kingdom, the soldiers are preparing for a large-scale deployment. And you thought I was involved in that.

Im starting to see the big picture.

The kingdom is preparing the soldiers for the monsters progress to resurrect the Demon King. The extremists who got the information mustve thought that the moderates, led by the King, were planning to invade other countries.

They are concerned that the deployment will strengthen the moderates influence.

And the fact that I, the trump card for the war, was under the protection of the Royal Family cemented that idea. Refusing all the invitations that the extremists sent to me also played a factor.

Therefore, all my actions put my parents in a bad position among the extremists. Thats why they tried to assassinate me rather than letting me fall into the hands of their political opponent.

There wont be any troops invading other countries. I have no intention to wage a war myself.

Why not?! House of Dolknes will grow even bigger if you make a military achievement. You might get a position in the central government. We wont be called a wannabe anymore.

If you dont want to be called a central wannabe, why dont you try focusing on enriching the territory?

Father, why dont you go back to the territory? I think the fiefdom is big enough, you might even be able to start some business.

Dont be absurd! We have the local officers to manage the fief and we only need to receive the taxes!

What about you, Mother?

Do you want me to live in the countryside? You even had that awful black hair! How did I give birth to a child like you?

These parents are hopeless. From the beginning, I didnt put any expectation on my parents but even as a noble they are hopeless.

Thats why I decided to treat them as nobles, not as their daughter.

Father, please give up your title.

What are you talking

This is title usurpation. You wont say no, right? Theres only one heiress for House of Dolknes.

When I hinted at the murder, my fathers face which had been red with anger, paled.

So-someone! Call the guards!

Is there any guard that can defeat me? If you have that kind of guard, you shouldve sent them to assassinate me

You cant do this to your own parents

I dont want to hear that from the person who sent assassins to their child. Oh, Mother? Youre not going to run away, are you?

I rushed to my mother who was about to get up from her chair to escape.

Yumiela, theres a lot of good marriage proposal coming your way, right? Youll be happier if you marry into a big family.

Im happy enough with my life.

And some people might like that maybe.

You have black hair, remember? You cant just be normal and be happy, you know.

Some people have told me they like my black hair. Please dont assume my happiness.

I cant see any more meaning in this conversation. I used my magic to release black spheres around me for intimidation.

Now, choose. You can go under house arrest and live a somewhat inconvenient life, or you can die gracefully here?

Yo-you arent the kind of person who would kill

Why are you talking like a parent now?

Do you know what happened to the assassins you sent to me?

Well, all of them are alive, but looking at my trembling parents, they probably didnt know that.

I can make something disappear using my dark magic. Its convenient because I wouldnt be bothered dealing with a dead body.

They finally gave in when I used Black Hole to make the chair disappear. My parents cried like children and begged for their life.

F-fine, Ill do it! Ill do as you say! Just please dont kill me!!

This whole fiasco has convinced me that I had a strong aversion for murder. Ive killed a lot of monsters and acquired an unimaginable strength for a human, but its a relief to know I have a heart.
