Rehabilitate the Villainess

chapter 6



6 – The Villain is Still Unknown

The Maid, Astin, was a faithful servant of the Azbel family.

She was proud to be the duke’s maid. If she was natural, she was natural. It was because the maids of the Azbel family received more treatment than expected.

It’s not just the staggering level of salary for commoners. The Azbel family, who are also famous for magic, provides various magic to their maids.

The most noteworthy of those magics is teleportation magic. Members of the Azbel family use teleportation magic even to commute. It was the same with the maids.

The wizards of the family personally use teleportation magic.

Safety was the reason. It’s a famous magic family, but it’s also a family that has bought a lot of grudges.

It was because there was a chance that one of the maids would kidnap someone’s family and cause damage to someone in the Azbel family.

Even the maids possessed contract magic that made them unable to even reveal that they were the maids of the Azbel family.

Even so, they weren’t offended by this. Rather, it was a sense of security in being able to guarantee the safety of himself and his family.

In fact, Az Belga guarantees the safety of her members and their families right from her contract.

The maid, Astin, was also like that. She was able to ensure the safety of her only family, her sister, Estill, from the Azbel family.

And it was the same day as usual. It was time to finish Astin as the maid of the Azbel family and become Astin, the only family member of Estill.

“⋯Esteel?”

However, the atmosphere, quite different from usual, felt awkward and cold.

⋯ Her one and only brother had disappeared.

She immediately went through her room. What caught her eye was a letter.

– ‘Feed Sael Azbel poison. The green one is poison, and the blue one is the antidote.’

It was a letter telling her to poison her young lady, Shael.

When she and her fiancé, her Eran, meet. It was to use a dessert with a strong scent to poison it.

There was even an antidote in case Eran accidentally ate the poison. It was for this reason that if Eran was fed the wrong food instead of Sael, the vigilance would be strict.

Astin stopped her thoughts. Because she couldn’t make up her mind.

But before long, she made up her mind.

From then on, things progressed like water.

“I’ll make the dessert.”

I put poison in Sael’s dessert.

It was natural to serve that dessert in front of Shael.

And she saw something in her. She was Shael in tears. Seeing that vicious Shael shed tears, Astin had no choice but to come to her senses.

Oh, what have I done?

Come to think of it, rumors have been spreading lately that Sael and Eran have fallen in love with each other.

It was rumored that the kind and understanding Eran Baslett had captured her villain, Shael Azbel.

Astin looked at Eran with a sad gaze and saw Shael crying, she had a complicated thought.

Can I take away their happiness for my own happiness?

Never.

Even though she said that Sael had bullied her. That and taking away the happiness before it even started had a different weight.

So she took the antidote and stood at the door.

However, what could be seen through the crack in the door was Eran Baslett, who stood up with a cake.

I noticed the poison. Rather it went well It was because the antidote might not work.

‘⋯ Let’s pray for the rescue attempt.’

Eran opened the door and looked at Astin. However, she couldn’t easily say something in front of Eran.

“This is what you did.”

“Sorry, sorry⋯⋯.”

Eran walked behind her. It meant follow me. Astin followed Eran as it was.

The hallway, which I normally walked through, felt too long now.

After that, the natural situation unfolded.

Eran asks, Astin answers. Astin revealed the details of the incident.

“Please, save my little brother⋯. I’m really sorry..”

That was what he said while lowering his head. She also knelt down. Even then, I felt it wasn’t enough, so I pressed her forehead to the floor.

“⋯ Wake up.”

That’s what Eran said. A slightly cold voice. Astin got up right away. Because she was overwhelmed.

Then, what I saw was Eran, who looked like she was about to bend over.

Ah, you’re trying to draw a sword.

Astin closed her eyes tightly. Still, the two little girls with her brother made it out for a long time. However, she suffered from not being able to save her brother in the end.

What the hell are you talking about? Could even the sound of the sword of the one with the blood of a master swordsman be different?

Of course not.

Astin opened her eyes. She stiffened for a moment. Because she couldn’t believe it.

Eran Baslett’s knee, which she thought would kill her, was on the ground.

“Why, why do you…?”

“I’m sorry.”

Sorry? What the hell are you sorry for?

“The fact that the location of the Azbel family’s maids was exposed… Means that there was an insider in the Azbel family.”

“That’s why…”

“The Azbel family’s fault is also my fault. And… You’ve been under the mental confusion spell all this time.”

Astin couldn’t understand. Of course, from the Azbel family’s contract, they guaranteed the safety of Astin’s family.

However, the weight of Eran’s knee touching the ground and the life of Astin, a commoner, are different.

She said she was under a mental confusion spell? Certainly, attempting to poison her was not a decision that would normally be so easy.

However, being a nobleman is not something that should be easily brought to one’s knees. Above all, Astin tried to kill Shael.

The reason doesn’t matter. If she tried to kill a noble, she must die no matter the reason.

Because that is the principle.

So Astin couldn’t believe it at all. Astin couldn’t help but shed tears.

“Your brother… I’ll save you somehow.”

“⋯.”

Because I regretted trying to take away the happiness of such a person. In the rush to think only of his own circumstances, he almost made a selfish choice.

No matter how strange the magic is, it doesn’t change.

It was then that Astin’s tears stopped. Because another sound was heard.

Light blue hair. And the sky-blue eyes that looked at Eran and turned to him.

Sael Azbel looked at herself and walked. Now, Astin didn’t even say a word.

It wasn’t that Sael was harassing him. It was because she tried to poison Shael.

Astin lowered his head. He couldn’t bear to meet those two eyes confidently.

Still, she had to lift her head up again. Because a situation similar to that just now was being created.

Astin doubted her eyes.

It was the same with Eran next to Shael.

The wicked woman, Shael, bowed her head toward herself.

“⋯I apologize for the Azbel family’s mistakes. I won’t hold them accountable for poison.”

It was a completely incomprehensible situation.

It was Shael, the only daughter of a duke. Her head should not be bowed to a commoner.

Because she will be the woman who will carry everything in the duchy.

So Astin hardened as it was.

*

After following Eran, Shael saw a maid exchanging words with Eran.

She

She was a maid who tried to poison herself. Next to Eran, she was also a maid who was responsive to bullying.

Sael listened to what her maid said without missing anything.

Of course, she had no sympathy for her maid, Astin.

She

She tried to poison herself. If so, the only outcome is death. It has been so far. It will be so in the future.

Because your family was kidnapped? Caught under a mind-disturbing spell? Those things are not reasons.

Her important thing is that she tried to kill her.

Just she saw the column on her knee.

Why on earth? Shael didn’t know. From start to finish she was her own fiancé whose behavior could not be predicted.

Just because he forgives, does he think he will forgive?

Absolutely not.

She opened the door. Because it occurred to her that she should punish that maid.

And when she stood beside Ran on her knees. Her mouth didn’t come off at all.

Oddly enough, her head was already down. And she was already apologizing to her maid.

Yes, this is because of her own fiancé.

If she harasses the maid, and if she asks for that sin ⋯⋯.

Because she feels defeated by her fiancé, who is on her knees apologizing on her behalf.

When Eran was surprised to see herself with her head down, she thought so.

It was almost the first time Eran was surprised.

But she had doubts. No matter how much she put her head down because of her fucking fiance ⋯⋯.

It was she who bowed her head to her maid. Normally, I would have been angry and left immediately.

But why on earth do I not feel that way?

Is it because I finally got over my damn fiancé?

Then, what kind of emotion is she feeling other than resentment? You never know.

Even if it’s her own mind ⋯,

The villain was still unknown.
