The Villain Wants to Live Quietly

Chapter 1. The final boss has arrived (5)

In the end, I couldn’t sleep well last night. My head was too full with thoughts of Emilia.

Oh, of course I don’t mean that.

Even in the midst of washing my body and tidying up my clothes, my head was complicated. Among them, the biggest agenda was why Emilia came to the Ipretz family.

In the original story, when Emilia becomes an adult, she receives an oracle and hears the story of her fate.

The content is ‘Find the person connected by the silver thread. It will change your fate.’ And later, it leads to meeting the main character and becoming interested in him.

“however… Why?”

Unlike me, who didn’t reach adulthood because my birthday didn’t come, Emilia must have already had her coming-of-age ceremony after her birthday.

It’s not exact, but by this time, he’d already received an oracle and met the protagonist, and would stay with the protagonist’s family, the Wistenbach family, for about three months.

The reason for this is not explained in detail in the original work, but there were many speculations that it was probably to confirm the oracle.

Anyway, the important point is that according to the original work, he is not a person who will visit the Ipretz family at this time.

‘It’s complicated.’

Did I misunderstand the time zone of the original work and the present time zone? But to think so, there was my coming-of-age ceremony three weeks later.

My birthday is on the 28th of April. Emilia’s birthday, which is slightly earlier than mine, should have been on February 17th according to the settings.

no. Also something is weird. If the time zone was not wrong and the flow was according to the original story, it was correct that Emilia should be in Wistenbach Street now.

“I knew everything wasn’t going to go the way it was written, but… … .”

It’s been 12 years since I came to this world. As I spent time, I knew that this place was a little different from the original.

Representatively, my father, Karl Ipretz, who was supposed to have one eye, had both eyes intact.

In addition, there were cases where there were subtle differences in detailed settings.

But even taking that into consideration, it was difficult to understand what happened yesterday.

It is the time when the main heroine of the original work and the main character meet, not anyone else. Just passing by such a large event?

“Ha, I’m going crazy.”

Emilia’s personality also felt a little different. In the original work, she doesn’t open her heart to others to the extent that it took about a month for her to call the main character by name.

But there was no hint as to what the reason might be.

It’s not even a finished work, but it’s a position that entered this world while watching a work that was still in series, so there might be some kind of behind-the-scenes story.

“I have to eat first. Maybe it’s because I’m hungry, but my thoughts are getting more and more complex.”

It’s already been 12 years since I stopped being Korean, but my theory was that Koreans are still hungry.

Although it is difficult to eat food made of rice here, most of them are bread, meat and fish.

On the way out of the room and into the dining room. A servant in a baggy outfit greeted me.

A woman who has been working for the Ipretz family for quite some time.

As a person who manages the overall customer service, he was one of the few people I was comfortable with.

“Bocchan, are you awake?”

“Good morning Meryl. What about breakfast?”

If an ordinary aristocratic family were to ask, what would be the breakfast menu?

But here on Ipretz Street, the question I asked had a slightly different meaning.

“I ate it with bread and soup.”

“I ate simply. Are you okay?”

“Yes. Even if you are overly full, it is hard to wait on the table.”

That’s it too. As expected, like a veteran who has worked for a long time, he seems to have his own routine.

Meryl stood right in front of me and bowed her head when I asked to lead her to the restaurant.

What do you mean by guiding me from now on? I’m still not very used to this manner.

“What about Emilia?”

“Are you calling me by name already?”

“That’s it.”

I feel like my eyes are about to spill out.

I wondered if it was such a surprise, but when I thought about it, the person who was most surprised was me, not anyone else. To be able to call that name with that Emilia in one day.

Rather than a sign of friendliness, it might simply be an expression of gratitude for escorting him.

If you think it’s right and try to get closer, you don’t know what kind of disaster you will face.

Because Emilia in the original work was like a forged sword before she was a beautiful and noble woman.

“Princess Baiemurn goes to the restaurant first. However, you are always waiting for me to eat with you.”

“What?”

then you should have said that

No, someone from another aristocratic family was waiting patiently at the restaurant, and the owner of the small family didn’t know about it.

Wouldn’t Meryl be such a stupid woman?

Meryl scratched her cheek, perhaps reading my intentions through her eyes, and began to tell the truth.

“actually… The princess said that there is no need to rush to bring them. I don’t want to cause any inconvenience as a guest… … .”

“It is, though.”

Of course, it could have been true, but there was a possibility that it was just what I said.

Moreover, even in the original work, Emilia is a character who can say with her own mouth, “I don’t like waiting or making people wait.”

Even if I pretended not to, there was a high probability that I would have been quite angry by now.

I’m going crazy. First of all, you have no choice but to increase the speed of your steps as much as possible.

“Eh, Bocchan-nim, until you are in such a hurry… … !”

“You have to hurry, then.”

I suppressed the sound of my footsteps as much as possible, but as I quickly arrived in front of the restaurant, I took a deep breath.

Every corner of the house is as wide as a beggar. It seems that you can clearly see how hard the cleaning workers must suffer.

After telling Meryl it was okay to go back, I took a deep breath and opened the door to the dining room with all my might.

Then, the first thing that caught my eye was Emilia, leaning in front of the huge window and staring out.

There was no other person to be seen except for the servant waiting in the corner.

“Ah, Ludwig. You woke up.”

“Sorry to keep you waiting, Emilia. Because I overslept… … .”

I woke up at the usual time, let alone overslept, but I had to make up my best excuses. Let it give off a nuance as if it’s not like this in normal times, but it’s only today.

Meanwhile, Emilia looked at me and laughed loudly.

As if she had dressed up a bit like when we first met in the drawing room, at first glance, it seemed that her makeup was adding to her glamor.

Even the flowers smile. You see all kinds of strange things.

“I didn’t wait long. I’m sorry that you were in a hurry because of me.”

“no. It’s my fault for keeping the woman waiting. Oh, and the meal… … ?”

I know I haven’t eaten yet, but I asked out of politeness. Emilia smiled silently at him and shook her head.

I immediately ordered a servant to bring the prepared food.

However, contrary to my expectations that the food would come out right away, they said that Emilia only started making the food now because of her request in advance.

Only then will it end up making Emilia wait twice as long.

“It’s okay if you don’t mind. I just asked because I wanted to talk to Ludwig a little more.”

“Are you talking?”

“Yeah. Are you uncomfortable?”

Depending on the content of the conversation, whether it’s uncomfortable or comfortable will be different, but… I can’t say that right away.

As I shook my head, saying that would never happen, Emilia covered her mouth again and burst into laughter.

What is so interesting about me? Does it feel like seeing a clown?

“Ludwig seems to have visible emotions.”

“compliment… is it?”

“of course. Even if my personality is a bit angular, I don’t put my friends down.”

If that’s the case, I’m glad, but something’s on my mind.

By the way, friend Fortunately, it seems that he accepted it as a friend.

I threw that comment at dawn yesterday and went back to bed and regretted it dozens of times.

“I was very anxious until I came to Ipretz Street yesterday.”

“What about anxiety?”

“I can’t go into detail, but… It’s been resolved enough now. It’s all thanks to Ludwig.”

I, the person in charge, feel like I haven’t done anything.

I’m not going to ask more if you’re like that, but there’s still a strange feeling left. Why does it feel like I’m doing a Zen dialogue?

While continuing the conversation with Emilia, she was busy laughing about what was so fun.

And when I said something, he looked at me with hazy blue eyes, and that look was very lethal.

When I finally came to my senses and tried to be careful about my actions, she burst into laughter again.

It was to the point where I couldn’t catch the laughing point at all.

“Ah, the meal is served. I didn’t notice the time passing thanks to Ludwig.”

I didn’t even realize time was passing while admiring Emilia’s face… That’s something you shouldn’t say out loud.

Foods that are not heavy like breakfast started to come out one after another.

Yes, but the main menu was meat. At first glance, it appears to be chicken.

“there… Can I use the sauce from this bowl?”

“ah.”

Emilia hesitated and asked me if she was embarrassed to see Sauciere.

Come to think of it, in other regions, sauce was served on meat. Serving Saussiere sauce separately was a traditional serving method in the southern region where the Ipretz family resided.

I thought about what to do because it was a car that was soft on the servant, wondering if it would be uncomfortable to eat, but I had no choice but to get up from my seat and go to her side.

“If it’s not rude, can I help you a little?”

“Thank you, Ludwig.”

You really have a smile on your face the whole time. Emilia opened up a bit of space as if she was waiting for me to come.

But if you think about it, wouldn’t it have been enough to tell you verbally. Why did you have to go out and make things?

“I… Emilia?”

“Yeah. Did you call?”

“Oh, no.”

Is it because of the mood? I don’t know why they gave up space and put their bodies back together. It shouldn’t be so complicated that you have to listen to the explanation up close.

Despite being seventeen, he has grown remarkably. Every time your body touches it, it makes you flinch.

Even though I told myself not to have dark feelings, my instincts as a man made a mess in my head.

No, but why has this woman been like this since yesterday? burdensome.
