Taming The Villainesses novel Chapter 83

(EP-83.2) Club #2

083 – Adventure Club #2

“I don’t know a place for reading.”

“Let’s go to my place! It’s not too far from here!”

“You live nearby, Marmar?”

“Yes! I call it the Revolution Secret HQ. Comrade saved my life, so you are invited!”

Marmar’s residence.

I was indeed curious about where and how our little comrade Marmar lived.

Marmar then led me through the gardens of Ark, across a clear stream, and into what you could call ‘the forest surrounding Ark’.

Paseuseuk, paseuseuk.

The deeper we went into the vegetation, the more anxious I became.

“... Marmar, is it really here?”

“Yes!”

Was there actual accommodation in this place?

I couldn’t imagine it at all...

“Ta-da! This is my base!”

Then, something that could be called an old hut finally entered my vision.

The hut had cracked windows, worm-eaten triangular roof and creaking damp wood.

It was a damp hut that would only smoke even if it was set on fire.

In front of the hut, there were stones arranged in a circle with a brazier and a pot being placed on it. There were also rows of clotheslines drying laundry and worn out sheets.

“Comrade, be careful not to step on that side! There’s a rabbit trap! I’ve set up several of them to catch some rabbits!”

“Ah-.”

You lived here?

Wasn’t this just the wild?

My vision darkened.

I felt ashamed for complaining about living in a three-person room in an old dormitory. Here, it was not even about living, but simply surviving....

My eyes were in disbelief and I couldn’t stop myself from asking.

“Marmar, do you really live here?”

“Yes!”

“I heard that there is an accomodation for employees. Why don’t you live there?”

“They say you have to pay 500,000 coins a month! You also need to deposit 5 million coins. The monthly rent is too high....”

Chuuuk.

Seeing Marmar’s proud diamond tail dangling helplessly to the ground made me reflect.

I was the one who brought Marmar to this place and planted her as an Ark faculty employee.

However, I was oblivious to the hard life she’d been living and neglected her under the excuse of being busy.

I expected her to live decently in a proper place, but this was way below my expectations. It simply felt terrible...

“I was lucky though! I found an abandoned hut! When I asked the Ark management about it, they said it would be okay for me to move in because no one lives here anyway!”

“Oh, I see...”

“I’ll make tea then. Have a seat and make yourself at home, comrade! I’ll get some water from the nearby stream!”

Marmar then disappeared through the bushes. I looked around and eventually made it into the old hut.

The inside was surprisingly manageable, giving off the feeling that people actually lived here. The space ❀ Nоvеlігht ❀ (Don’t copy, read here) was almost taken up with a bed and a table. There were also some unexpected things.

The bed was covered with a duvet that looked like a mosaic because of the many patches. And the broken desk seemed to have been one that was thrown out of the classroom.

There were beakers and alcohol lamps that looked very old, and some dishes such as plates and bowls. Of course, it didn’t look new and more like they’d been picked up from somewhere....

Seureuk-.

I uncomfortably sat in a chair and opened the book. However, I was soon greeted by unexpected words.
