Taming The Villainesses novel Chapter 114

(EP-114.2) Legacy #5

114 – Demon King’s Legacy #5

Aira remained silent and did not answer. Instead, she raised her glass and spun the wine inside with a bored expression.

Whirl-.

She didn’t seem very interested in this story. After all, this had nothing to do with Aira.

Perhaps sensing Aira’s mood, the Saintess said.

“This is crucial information for Queen Aira and the Angmar Kingdom. Because after Theodorus failed to kill me, he fled.”

“So?”

“The last sighting of him was in the slave market of Monarch City, Angmar’s capital.”

“......?”

Aira’s brow slightly twitched. Her interest was starting to get piqued again. And in order to not lose Aira’s attention, the Saintess added.

“They said that he was being sold as a slave there, waiting for someone to buy him at a high price. Even boasting that he could predict the future.”

Seureureu-.

For a moment, it felt like several ants were crawling down my back. I was very familiar with this.

... Wasn’t that me?

But the Saintess said it wasn’t me...

“But when we tried to find him, he was already gone. He went into hiding, hid his identity somewhere and is bidding his time to take my life-.”

The longer I listened, the more the circumstances were pointing to me.

Before I knew it, my mind started playing a scene where I was being dragged to the execution stand. Being charged for the attempted murder of the Saintess, that I didn’t remember ever committing.

─Admit your crime!!! You dare attempt to kill the Saintess!!!

─I don’t remember...!!! Spare me...!!!

─Execute him-!!!!

It was a terrible future...

As if there was nothing more to hear, Aira suddenly got up from her seat.

“This has been quite unproductive. It’s getting late now, so I’ll take my leave. Theo, let’s go back.”

Not wanting to lose Aira, the Saintess hurriedly spoke.

“That man’s goal is probably Your Majesty. He must have sold himself as a slave to get closer to you.”

“Me?”

“He may have already approached you, or may be approaching you. He’s skilled at changing his face and appearance.”

“Why is he after me?”

“I don’t think Your Majesty needs an explanation for that. You probably know the reason better than anyone else-.”

“There is nothing more to hear. To waste time with such nonsense, this is disappointing, Priga Nightfall.”

Aira thought there was no need to talk any more and left the room.

I was torn between leaving Aira and talking more with the Saintess, who was still drinking wine. But in the end, I had no choice but to follow Aira out.

Aira was on her way back to the dormitory.

“Did Saintess Priga lie to the Queen?” _{free𝑤ebnovel.com}
