Why Did I Become the Villainess?

Chapter 432: : Visiting the Western region (3)



I immediately get up and look around me. Afraid that Prince Fraser wilk comes out of nowhere to hurt me. I was still anxiously looking around when the door suddenly burt and someone rush inside.

Because it is already evening and the only light in my room is the moon, I can only see the silhouette of the person. I feel my heart freezes when the silhouette looks like Prince Fraser. I subconsciously rush to hide from him. I can feel my whole body trembling.

Is he here to kill me? Does he knows? Does he already knows that I am the villainess?Nôv(el)B\\jnn

I was still panicking what to do when the someone open the lights in the room. I anxiously turn my head to the silhouette and my body falls on the ground when I see Brother Pascal instead of Prince Fraser.

"He isn't here. It's all a nightmare, Csille," I mumble to myself.

Brother Pascal rush towards me to help me sit on my bed. "Csille, what happened? I heard you shout that's why I rush to your room. Did something bad happened? Why did you shout just now? And why do you looks so terrified? Did someone came into your room?"

I look at Brother Pascal. Although my sight can see him, my brain is too busy thinking about the nightmare I had just now. It was too vivid that I really thought it was real.

"Csille? What happened? Why aren't you saying anything? You are making me more worried. Tell me what happened?"

And just like before I remain staring at him. A part of my brain is telling me to say something to him but my minf couldn't help but recall that nightmare.

Brother Pascal tried to talk to me a couple of times but because I don't respond to him, he end up helping lay on my bed again. But instead of living me alone in my own room, he decided to stay with me the whole night. He was probably worried that someone trespass our house and he just wants to make sure.

A few hours have passed and I could already hear Brother Pascal's steady breathing. It looks like he have fallen asleep now.

I have managed to calm myself already but my mind couldn't help but still think about that nightmare.

What is that dream about? Is it just a simple nightmare or something is giving me a sign?

Even if I don't sleep much after the nightmare, I still woke up early that morning. I was supposed to see Mister Flavian after meeting Mister Earnan but because Brother Pascal and I got exhausted, I wasn't able to meet them.

I look at the sofa where Brother Pascal used to sleep and I didn't find him there. He was probably having his breakfast already.

I freshen myself first before I look for Brother Pascal. He reminded me a couple of times not to leave the inn with him, so I don't have a choice but to bring him.

Also, I think this is a great opportunity for him to practice. He will soon reclaim the position of being a heir of the Lauretré Family. By bringing him with me, he will be able to practice his skills and abilities.

I have looked around the whole house already but I still couldn't find Brother Pascal. Which is odd because I know he wouldn't left me after what happened last night.

I was about to look outside hoping he was just there taking some breather but I was shocked to see Brother Pascal with Mister Flavian Vulso. Behind them are the other officials of the

western region. The officials who were handpicked by his majesty.

I look at Brother Pascal. Confused by what is happening. Why are the officials of the western region here? Did we do something wrong?

"Brother, why are they..." I look at Mister Vulso and the other officials.

Brother Pascal smile reassuringly at me. "I know you have a plan to have a meeting with Mister Vulso and the other officials of the western region. So, I brought them here because I was worried you still don't feel okay after last night."

I was stunned with what he said. I just didn't expect he would do this for me. I know Doctor Pascal loves Csille dearly and I know he would do everything for her. But after what happened to the Lauretré Family recently, I thought the old Brother Pascal wouldn't return.

"Apologies for interrupting but may I know what happened last night that made Dame Csille unwell? Do you want me to invite a Doctor here?"

I shake my head and smile reassuringly at Mistet Vulso. "Thank you for the offer but there is no need for that. I am already okay. In fact, I was about to go to your office to meet all of you." I turn my head at the other officials. They were the ones his majesty assigned to work here.

"Apologies for interrupting your work. I know you are all busy."

The officials shake their heads. Then one of then step up. "Dame Csille, it will be our honor to come here and meet you. You were the one who brought peace to this land and if were not because you, this place is still be cursed land of the Vrawyth Kingdom."

Cursed land? It really used to be the most avoided region in the Vrawyth Kingdom but now everything changes. It is one of the fasted region that is progressing this year. I am sure by the end of this year, the western region can compete with other regions of the Vrawyth Kingdom. But for me this land is still a curse ladn because most of my heartbroken moments happened here. If I only don't have any responsibilities here, I wouldn't dare to come here.

That nightmare is probably a sign how much this land have an effect on me.

I look at the officials and shake my head. "How can I take credit for what happened here? I only ask his Majesty to change the officials who are ruling this region. Aside from that, I don't think I helped that much. You should thank yourself for everything that happened here. You did a great job changing the western region. If not because of you, things wouldn't change in this region."

All the officials stares at me and shake their heads. It seems like they are not agreeing with what I said.

"Dame Csille, you are discrediting yourself. How can we work here if not for you? You were the reason why we are here and you are also the reason why we are motivated to do our very best to help this region. Just like how you are helping the Kingdom."

I almost laugh when I heard what the official said. If they only knew what I am doing, I am sure they will hate me.

Well, that is inevitable though because I am the Villainess. Sooner of later, I will be the most hated person in this Kingdom.

Mister Vulso stands up, followed by the other officials. We just finished talking about the recent progess in the western region. I need this information because I will be making a report that I will pass to his majesty.

"Thank you for giving us time, Dame Csille. I hope you can passed our concern to his

majesty."

I smile reassuringly at them. "Leave that to me. I will make sure I will mentioned all the things that need to be changer here. So, you don't have to worry."

"Dame Csille, may I know when do you plan to leave? Maybe we could give you a welcoming banquet?"

I shake my head. How can I do that? Although the western region is already progressing, it still have the least funds among the other region. So how can I bare to make them spend a lot of money on me?

"You don't need to. Brother Pascal and I will be leaving for tomorrow so you don't have to give us a welcoming banquet. You could just spend that money for something more

important."

All the officials stare at each other and shake their heads. "Dame Csille, how can we bear to do this? You are an important guests of the western region. How can we do this? If you don't want a big banquet, maybe a small one will be okay?"

I heave a sigh. I didn't expect they will still push this idea. "Why don't you return here tonight. A small feast is already enough. I guess?"

At least if this is done here, I can be assured that they wouldn't spend too much money on us. The war is about to come, every region needs enough funding for that.

After a few convincing, the officials agreed to my suggestion. Although I have a feeling that

they wouldn't let things pass.

Brother Pascal and I stares at the carriages of the officials that are now on their way to their offices. I heard they still need to finish their work for today to prepare for the small feast tonight. It seems like they really put importance to this feast.

"Csille, are you okay now? Maybe it's best if we don't have that feast tonight. What if-"

I look at Brother Pascal and interrupts him. "Can't you see how they are anticipating this feast, Brother? How can I make them disappointed? Don't worry, I am already okay. A little feast won't harm me."

After I said those words, I immediately excuse myself. I still need to write reports about the progress in the weaponry and in the western region. I need those if his majesty invited me. I know he is aware that I return to the western region and he will sure ask me questions. So to prepare myself, I need to write reports for him.

I look at the clock. It's still early but why do I feel like I don't have enough time to prepare these reports?

I finish making reports in the afternoon. So Brother was the only one who prepared things

for the Banquet. I tried to help him but he already told me that everything is prepared and all we need to do is to wait for fhe officials to return. So I don't have a choice but to do what he

said. To wait.

Night came. The officials arrived in our inn one by one, with plenty of gifts on their hands. Some have food, expensive clothes for me and Brother Pascal, jewelry for me and medical books for Brother Pascal. All of it probably cost a few thousands centimes.

I heave a sigh and let them in. I know they wouldn't agree not to spen money on us.

I look at the gifts they all given to us and shake my head. It was a lot. I don't even know how Brother Pascal and I will take care of it.

Since all the officials are already here, we started the small feast. We eat, drinks wine and talks about things. But it was Brother Pascal who is talking to the officials. My mind is preoccupied with things that's why I wasn't able to join their conversation. Although I would answer their questions from time to time.

I was busy eating my food when I suddenly feel a nudge on my side. I look at Brother Pascal who is sitting beside me. He also stares at me with a frown.

"Are you okay? Maybe we should end this feast now. You don't look okay to me."

I just smile reassuringly at him. "I am okay, Brother. I was just thinking about the work I

left. You know..."

I was referring to my position in the new department. I don't know why, but I have a sudden feeling that something happened there. I just don't know what is it. Brother Pascal nods his head. "If that was the case, maybe it's really best if-"

I shake my head. How can I do that? All these officials prepare for this feast. How can I make

their efforts put into waste?

"I am okay, Brother. You don't have to worry."

To not worry Brother Pascal, I tried my best to talk to the officials but I couldn't still help

but worry.

I have a gut feeling that something happened. I just don't know if it's a goof thing or a bad

thing.
