My Man Is A Villain, So Am I!

Marinette (Sun-hee)'s POV

Many days passed from the day I shared a conversation with Flynn on the rooftop, I passed out halfway and it led me to the complete mess.

I didn't know what I said after I passed out but Flynn seemed to be smiling warmly every time we locked eyes with each other.

And the Duchess finally went back to her house after spending her time in her daughter's room most of the time.

During these past few days, I learned more and more about memory magic. It was magic which was originally belonged to Herod, our first ancestor of the Mortel dukedom.

There were some people before Marinette in the Mortel bloodline who had the potential to master the magic but no one ever seemed to be able to use it since it took a lifetime of a human to master it.

To think that Marinette could use such powerful magic was really amazing, I knew how to use it but I didn't plan to use it at any time soon.

Diana was always in her room most of the time while I had to go to the social gatherings, it was so tiring.

I needed to annul the engagement but the opportunity for me to do that hasn't arrived yet. In the meantime, all I did was wait.

Instead of staying in the duchy, I came out of the house and walked around the capital. If I was lucky, I might run into any characters of the novel.

I haven't seen the second female lead of the novel yet since I came here. In the novel, she should arrive at the capital around the time Marinette was engaged with the crown prince.

Her name was Irene, she will be a rival of Diana competing with each other for the crazy male lead. There was even an oracle she was the child of God and was bound to be the saintess to connect the living world with the god's world.

I really didn't believe in the oracle but if Irene became the saintess, she might be a threat to me.

So that was the second day I went out to search for Irene, maybe I could change the plot or bring her on my side.

"Marinette, it's hot out here, isn't it?" Aurora complained for a while now while her hand locked with mine. She was the one holding under the umbrella. She didn't even hold it properly, I was the one under the sunlight and I was sweating while she was saying that.

"Let's rest for a while then." we sat on the bench under the big tree in the center of where people walking and selling something on the tree.

The tree was filled with blue flowers on it laying down. It was so pretty and a coincidence since it matched with the blue dress I wore.

"Flynn, you sit down too." I talked to Flynn who wore the knight uniform in the same blue color as me standing in front of me pitifully.

"It's alright, my lady." he was such a stubborn man.

"Your lady told you to sit down, so sit down." Aurora said bluntly at Flynn. She recently kept her guard down around me. It felt nice being with her.

When Flynn was going to sit down, she switch her place to sit by my right side and let Flynn sit on where she sat a second ago.

What was with her?

"Let me buy something for both of you, wait here."

"I'll go with you--"

She cut me off and tapped my shoulder, her eyes glanced over at me and Flynn like she was about to say something.

I exhaled and nodded since I had no idea what she was telling me about.

"Bye then."

Aurora was really an enthusiastic girl unlike how she was described in the novel. It might be because she was friends with me instead. When she was Diana's friend, Diana always took all of the attention from people.

"Isn't that mask uncomfortable?" Flynn asked me while staring into my eyes.

I touched the mask, it was the mask given to Marinette by the duke.

I didn't really know why I wore the mask in the first place since the scar never bothered me.

I decided to take off the mask in front of Flynn, the moment I did that, Flynn turned his head to the other side and put his hand on his lip.

'What's with him?'

"Is my scar that ugly?"

"No--no, I--I didn't mean it like that." he bit his tongue in a hilarious way.

"So it's beautiful?" he nodded slightly.

I shouldn't have asked that.

My face felt a little hot hearing that.

Hmm?

The flower on the tree fell down and landed on Flynn's hair, his red hair was so soft and long. He didn't even notice the flower on his head.

I smiled a little and picked it off him.

"There's a flower on your head."

"Ah...there're also--"

"Your hair is full of flowers and you didn't even notice." Aurora came back with the hand full of food, she ruffled my hair making it into a mess and flowers started to fall down.

"Marinette...Hahaha, you look good with messy hair."

"Stop it...it's embarrassing, people are looking."

Flynn didn't say a word about the flower on my head, it was embarrassing.

The food in that world was really good, it was similar to the one in Seoul but it felt a little bit special.

"What're you looking so hard for since yesterday?" asked, Aurora.

"It's a person."

"Really??"

"Is it a man?"

"No, it's a woman."

"Is she your friend?"

"She's just someone I know but she doesn't know me."

"She must be someone outside the capital. That's why she doesn't know someone like you."

"Yes, I heard she came to the capital a few days ago."

The weather started to get hot, Flynn used his hand to cover my face from the sunlight shining on my face even though we had an umbrella.

"Sir, please buy a rose. The pretty lady will be happy." a kid with the basket full of roses came to Flynn and asked him to buy it.

I didn't know whom that kid was talking about, I just glanced at that kid and turned back to Aurora eating our food.

In the end, Flynn really bought it even though our duchy was like a mountain of roses.

"My lady..." he called me with his hand holding the rose without thorns.

But I didn't get to finish listening to him, since Aurora cut him off.

"Wow, there is a crowd over there." Aurora pointed at the crowd.

"What're they looking at?"

"Why don't we go there ourselves?" she grabbed my hand and dragged me with her to the crowd even though I haven't finished that food yet.

Flynn followed us behind, Aurora and I made our way to the front and my eyes seemed to be fooling me.

Even Aurora's eyes were wide the same as mine even though she was one of Diana's friends before.

She must be surprised seeing Diana beating the thief with the magic sword but it wasn't a surprise for me since every member of the Mortel knew some basics of sword fighting.

But that guy who stood beside her crossing his arms staring at Diana beating people calmly, his handsomeness blinded people's eyes. He was the man every woman near me staring at intensely.

That guy was one of Diana's love interests too. The development was way too fast since they were like a friend with each other at that moment seeing how they wore simple clothes hanging out with each other at the square other than the gathering.

The second male lead, Victor Addison. The commander took a three-years leave for griefing over his comrade's death according to the novel.

But it hasn't been three years yet, that meant someone interfered with the plot before me. It might be another person with the same case as me.

He was found dead in the forest before the night of Marinette's execution. His death was mysterious just like Flynn's.

Looking at the sword attached to his waist, he has already come back to become the commander.

He was a killing machine on the battlefield, he even managed to kill the high-rank demon alone without anyone's support.

He was quite a thorn in Marinette's eyes since he was always with Diana and he was the one who comforted Diana during the time she was depressed because of her lover stolen by Marinette but it should be way long after the engagement.

"Let's go, Aurora. There's nothing to see here." I shouldn't cross paths with him for now.

"Marinette, the person you're looking for is someone who came to the capital, right?"

"Yes, that's right."

"Isn't that person who you're looking for?"

I turned my head back looking at the person Aurora was pointing her finger at, I ran into the scene and stopped Diana from beating that person.

I helped that person up and stood in front of her.

"Sister, what're you doing? She's a thief." Diana asked me coldly with her eyes turned sharp saying it.

"What did she steal? I'll pay for it." I glanced at Aurora and signaled her to take the girl behind me out.

"She tried to steal my jewelry, do you really think I'll let her off?"

Diana wasn't supposed to be like this, she was quite forgiving. There must be something behind this.

"You have no right to beat someone like that, let the knight facility deal with it or I can pay for your jewelry instead."

The crowd started to get noisy, Diana put back her sword. The magic energy around the sword disappeared after she did that.

Luckily, that woman she beat up wasn't seriously injured since Diana controlled her strength.

She didn't intend to kill the girl but she was just trying to teach her a lesson. That was different from how they met in the story though.

"Let's take her to the knight--"

A man behind her stepped up staring at me for quite a while, and said, "Let's go, Diana. You have training. Let her go."

Diana settled down listening to Victor's words and walked away from the place.

The crowd started to split up after that.

And that left for me and Victor. It was really unlucky to run into him before breaking the engagement.

He will see me as Diana's enemy.

"Why do you protect that girl?" that was surprising of him asking reason from me.

"...she's someone I know." I had to look up at his face when we were holding the conversation because he was way taller than me.

"That's odd...I didn't know you know many people like that since you always stayed in the basement."

"I met her a few days ago."

"I didn't know why you're lying but you must have your reason, I'll take my leave then." he walked away to Diana who was waiting for him.

Diana was smiling beautifully at him, that must be the reason why he protected her. The plot really didn't help me with anything.

It all turned out differently from how the author wrote.

I took a deep breathed and walked back to Aurora and that girl, the second female lead.

"Aurora, can I ask you to take her to the hospital?"

"What about you? Where are you going?"

"I have somewhere I need to go, and Flynn please escort Aurora for me too."

"I don't need an escort--"

"No, you should go with Flynn." I cut her off then walked away from both of them.

Victor said he had training with Diana, I must follow them.

I needed to see how Diana was in her sword-fighting skills. If she turned out to be great at it, then it might help me confirm something.

And that was Diana traveling back in time.

That was my hunch, I felt something off about her since the first time I met her.

The ending of the story didn't finish properly, if the author wanted to write a season two, the best case was making one character come back in time for a revenge plot or something.

That explained a lot since many characters died in mysterious ways.

I had memory magic as my trump card, I could use it to wipe their memories to escape if it will come to the point of them catching me.

I heard people sword sparring with each other along the lake, it was Diana and Victor. They fought with each other with real swords.

Diana was on par with Victor while dodging his attack and attacked him. The way she wielded her sword, swung her sword, there was no way she only knew the basics.

I tried hard to listen to their conversation.

"I haven't met you in a while but it seemed you're still good at this."

"You're not bad yourself, Victor."

She called him by his name, they must have been closed.

That confirmed it, Diana really traveled back in time. Although I didn't know the reason but it might be something even a reader like me didn't know.

I really needed something to support my theory...

Aurora (Eun-Kyung)'s POV

Diana really traveled back in time, it was really unbelievable. Her personality changed, her sword fighting wasn't supposed to be good like that and she wasn't supposed to be an acquaintance of Victor around this time.

If I knew I would reincarnate into this world, I should've asked the author more about what he was going to write in season two.

I was a friend of the author of the novel, he said that he will write season two a unique plot making everyone the villain.

Eun-Kyung, stupid Eun-Kyung.

I only remembered it now that Diana traveled back in time, the author told me that, how could I forget about it?

And it wasn't just her...there were other three people traveling back in time alongside her.

That meant...the world I was in right now was the second timeline.

One was Diana but who were the other three?

To be continued....!
