The Villainous Noblewoman Is About to Be Forced into Love, Isn’t This Wrong? Chapter 125: Your Relationship Is So Good
“I know.” Indeed, Liana’s attitude toward Minoga had beco much colder these past few days. During these five days, they had spoken fewer than ten tis, almost all of which were initiated by Minoga.
“Is that so?” philia reached out, cupping Liana’s face. “I know that after all this, you must be dissatisfied with Minoga, since she just watched, right?”
“I can’t think from her perspective either, but her intentions must have been good. She’s already reflected on it. If this continues, it wouldn’t be good for either of you, especially since she’ll still be protecting you later.”
“Of course, I’m just saying this. I won’t force you to make a choice, after all, Minoga did do so things that made you uncomfortable,” philia said.
After learning the truth, philia also knew Minoga had no choice, given Orleya’s status. But as Liana was still unaware, she certainly couldn’t speak from that perspective.
“I understand.” Actually, after seeing Loraviel wake up, most of Liana’s anger had dissipated, but thinking about what happened yesterday... maybe it would have been better if she hadn’t woken up.
Liana was truly troubled now.
But then she felt a soft touch and sweet nectar on her lips.
“You should rest well for now. I’ll handle so Venus Manor affairs, and then tomorrow we’ll prepare to set off to et the elf princess,” philia said, gently kissing Liana’s lips.
She had beco quite skilled at this now.
Liana felt the warmth leave her lips and nodded. “Mm, I understand.”
After philia left...
Liana imdiately opened the envelope, her heart racing. What had Loraviel left for her?
Yesterday, why did her speed seem to slow down, as if under so weakening effect? Her body had beco extrely slow. The one most likely capable of this was probably Loraviel, related to her innate magic.
Was she too afraid? Or, as Minoga had said, did Loraviel know the truth, and then...
Impossible! If she really knew, why didn’t she just talk to properly instead of choosing to offer herself?
If she had talked it out, Liana certainly wouldn’t have done anything.
But she didn’t know that that was exactly what Loraviel wanted. She knew very well that if Princess Liana learned of this, given Princess Liana’s personality and her current relationship with Princess philia, she would definitely be rejected.
So Loraviel chose to use deceleration magic, giving Princess Liana no chance to refuse.
Liana slowly opened the envelope. Inside was familiar handwriting—after all, Liana had secretly read several of Loraviel’s letters before, so she was sowhat familiar with it. The writing was beautiful and neat.
[Princess Liana, by the ti you see this letter, I have presumably left Venus Territory and gone to a far-away place.
I’m very sorry. I originally thought you were a very kind young lady, but...
I apologize for being so presumptuous, for saying disrespectful things that made you angry. I was too arrogant, showing you a disrespectful side. This is a maid’s dereliction of duty. I know I cannot be a qualified maid.
Although Princess philia said she would ensure my family’s safety, please... I beg you, don’t involve my family, Princess Liana. I have already given you my all, I’ve given everything to you.
What happened yesterday, I will treat as a nightmare, as if it never happened.
Please treat it as if I never appeared in your world. Forget . We will probably never et again.]
As if! Loraviel wrote this letter just so Liana could feel sowhat at ease.
And the most important point was to make Princess Liana believe she would never appear again, only to suddenly appear before Princess Liana. At that mont, what expression would Princess Liana have?
Loraviel was very curious and eager to see.
anwhile, Liana looked at the letter in her hand.
Oh no!
So it wasn’t so strange dream she had; these things had really happened.
Liana read the letter over and over again.
Why had it co to this?
Although Loraviel’s letter said to pretend it never happened, how could Liana possibly do such a thing...
Never et again?
Regardless of the reason, Liana didn’t want this to be the outco.
For this world, Loraviel’s power was indispensable. She had originally thought that after leaving, Loraviel would undergo a period of training, return upon completing her studies, and then they would explain the previous matters. Along with Liana’s gradual changes, their relationship would at least not be so rigid.
With philia’s connection, the two might even beco friends. Then beco part of philia’s force, able to contribute when resisting the demons.
For Liana’s own selfish reasons, she also wanted to see Loraviel. Liana had indeed wronged Loraviel in many ways, and she had originally wanted to apologize properly to her, whether or not Loraviel would forgive her.
Now that things had reached this point, although philia could contact Loraviel and have her return, but...
When the two t again, what kind of scene would it be?
Loraviel would probably want nothing more than to kill her...
Liana laid down on the bed. The soft mattress enveloped her body, her platinum hair sowhat disheveled against her lips as she stared blankly at the ceiling.
What should I do...
This was the first ti Liana had felt so helpless.
“...” But soon, Liana’s gaze changed from confused to determined.
No matter what, Loraviel had beco like this because of her. This was the result she had caused. Regardless, Liana had to make ands for this.
Moreover, when the ti ca, Loraviel would probably sit down quietly and talk properly with her, out of respect for philia.
Rather than worrying about these things, what Liana should be doing now was improving herself.
Her strength was far too weak. Although she had undergone a period of training with Oliphia, it was still far from enough. On that day, when she saw the assassin, Liana truly felt the gap in strength.
After all, this world was one where individual power reigned supre. The neighboring Luska Kingdom was a good example.
The Lisat Kingdom was the sa. To put it bluntly, it was simply because King Lisat’s fist was big enough to make others follow his rules.
Only by improving herself would she have the right to speak.
Liana put away the letter, hiding it. If philia saw this, she would be in big trouble.
“Minoga.” This was the first ti since Loraviel fell unconscious that Liana had called Minoga’s na proactively, apart from inquiring about Loraviel.
“Princess Liana.” Minoga appeared before Liana.
She no longer had that relaxed deanor from before, but stood before Liana in a standard knight stance, head lowered, listening carefully to Liana’s words.
Seeing Minoga like this, Liana felt sowhat uncomfortable. After all, before, in private, she had always been rather informal. To suddenly beco so serious seed a bit strange.
“You’re different from before,” Liana said.
“I apologize, Princess Liana,” Minoga lowered her head. “I have recognized how excessive my previous actions were.”
Minoga truly felt wronged. As a Judge, she was humbling herself so much, and this matter couldn’t be blad on her at all.
“I’m not angry anymore. Just go back to how you were before. You like this, I’m a bit uncomfortable,” Liana said.
The past few days she had been upset, too worried about Loraviel’s condition. After seeing Loraviel wake up, her anger had largely dissipated.
Plus, Minoga’s attitude was very sincere, and Liana wasn’t very angry anymore.
Moreover, fundantally, this matter seed to have been initiated by herself. She had asked them to help find a teacher for Loraviel.
Minoga must have chosen this teacher carefully. It’s just that this teacher seed sowhat unreliable.
“Thank you, Princess Liana.” Minoga still maintained this deanor, very cautious, afraid of making Liana unhappy.
It seed that no one could withstand the cold treatnt, not even a Judge.
After all, given her relationship with philia, Liana would likely spend a considerable amount of ti with Minoga in the future. If things beca unpleasant, it would be troubleso.
Liana sat up and said to Minoga, “Co here.”
Minoga ca before Liana.
Liana took Minoga’s sowhat cold hand and placed it on her cheek. “Isn’t this what you like to do most? This ti, I’ll let you pinch once.”
Princess Liana’s cheeks were still as soft as before, feeling nice to touch. When gently lifted, one could see a cute little ball of flesh.
“Thank you, Princess Liana.” Minoga seed to relax a bit. “I’m sorry, Princess Liana. I didn’t consider everything thoroughly when finding a teacher for Loraviel. Although I was watching at the ti, I shouldn’t have let you all be put in danger.”
Ah, just ntioning this made Liana angry. “That person, if anything happens to Loraviel, I will definitely not let her off!”
If it weren’t for her bizarre, strange tests, none of this would have happened!
“I know assassins are mysterious and unwilling to expose themselves, but you should be able to check on Loraviel’s condition, right? If anything happens to Loraviel, tell imdiately. I understand you might have so difficulties—maybe the other person has a strange or malicious personality? You might not be able to do anything about her, ⊛ Nоvеlιght ⊛ (Read the full story) but I can have philia help . If all else fails, I’ll go to His Majesty the King for help,” Liana said.
Minoga’s expression was sowhat peculiar. In this matter, seeking the king’s help might not be very effective. Princess Liana herself might have more influence?
Actually, Minoga didn’t know much about Orleya either, only that such a person existed.
Her ntal state seed to have serious issues, and given her special status, few people were willing to approach her. But the King of Lisat had confidently recomnded her to Minoga.
He had repeatedly emphasized to ntion Liana’s affairs, which might have so effect.
After all, Orleya was currently in a state of denying emotions while also trying to understand them.
She was the most outstanding assassin in the Lisat Kingdom because she had abandoned everything to beco an assassin.
When serving as an assassin, she had carried this out thoroughly, becoming a rciless killer. No matter how the target pleaded, she would kill them without hesitation. Or rather, in most cases, she killed them before they even had a chance to beg for rcy.
But after the establishnt of the Lisat Kingdom, it seed her role as an assassin was no longer needed. She retired, watching her two excellent sons, and her lost emotions gradually returned.
Originally, things were going very smoothly. Orleya believed that having emotions was good after all. But Rayen’s sudden death completely changed this view.
She rcilessly eliminated the family that had killed Rayen, and disappeared after that.
From that mont, her ntal state beca very unstable. She craved those beautiful emotions but was also afraid of losing sothing else because of them.
At that ti, she was more helpless than a child.
Especially when she saw all of Liana’s beastly actions, and the various behaviors of Countess Rose and Cain, she completely gave up.
Emotions were indeed worthless things. Even family mbers would fight each other over certain matters. Emotions should not exist.
But Liana’s behavior three months ago gave Orleya hope again, so at this point, soone needed to give her a push.
Either philia or Liana would do, so the King of Lisat recomnded Orleya.
“I understand, Princess Liana.” Minoga enjoyed Liana’s cute little face after a long ti. “If anything happens to Loraviel, I’ll tell you imdiately. No, I’ll also keep you inford about Loraviel’s training status regularly.”
Liana stood up. Although her body was still sowhat sore, what had exhausted her more was the ntal strain.
Now, Liana had reconciled with herself. Regardless of Loraviel’s intentions in doing those things, what happened had happened. No matter the outco, she had to properly clarify this matter with Loraviel.
So, before that, she should improve herself. Start changing from now on.
“What kind of training thod do you think would suit my magic?” A gem appeared in Liana’s hand.
“With Princess Liana’s intelligence, you should know much better than I do what wonderful thods to use. Princess Liana should understand this better than I do, so I believe Princess Liana just needs to improve her physical condition,” Minoga was very clear that Liana had invented the spellcrafting.
She didn’t have that kind of wisdom to teach Liana. With Liana’s creative ideas and thinking that differed from this world, she would certainly be able to use more amazing magic.
“Is that so?” Liana looked at her palm. What Minoga said was quite right.
She had many strange ideas, but due to her own limitations, she couldn’t use them.
“Loraviel...”
“Have you gotten used to it, Princess Liana?” Minoga smiled slightly. “Do you need any help? Until Princess Liana finds a suitable maid, let be Princess Liana’s maid.”
“No need.” Liana waved her hand. She should get used to this kind of life. Before, Loraviel had spoiled her too much.
If Loraviel were still here, she would know as soon as Liana spoke that she needed to change clothes and go out.
Liana reached out to undo her buttons when she suddenly realized there was soone else in the room.
It wasn’t that Liana had changed clothes in front of Loraviel before—though it had happened—but in most cases, Loraviel would proactively leave the room without Liana having to say anything.
“I’m going to change clothes,” Liana said.
“I understand.” Minoga’s figure disappeared from the spot.
Liana sighed. It seed changing this habit would take a long ti.
In just three months, Loraviel had nearly turned Liana into a helpless person.
After changing clothes, Liana looked at herself in the dressing table mirror. Her current outfits were almost all prepared by Loraviel before.
This was the dressing table she had left for Loraviel. It probably wouldn’t be used for a while now.
Liana covered it with a cloth and left the room.
Liana walked down the corridor outside. Because of philia’s arrival, the previously sowhat chaotic Venus Manor had temporarily returned to calm.
“It’s been a while, Princess Liana.” Oliphia appeared before Liana at this mont.
Counting the ti, it had been almost a week since she had seen Oliphia.
“During this ti, Princess Liana has relaxed quite a bit,” Oliphia said.
“I’m sorry, so matters held up,” Liana said.
“Sorry?” Oliphia heard an incredible word, although now she wasn’t as shocked as before. “Princess Liana is truly an unfathomable person.”
“There’s nothing unfathomable about it,” Liana waved her hand. “Aren’t you going to suspect that I’m slacking off?”
“Princess Liana wouldn’t do such a thing.” After Liana persisted for half a month, Oliphia’s view of her had changed sowhat. If Princess Liana were truly as she had been before, she couldn’t possibly have persevered.
And recent events had once again proved her conjecture wasn’t wrong.
“Tomorrow, I’ll be going with philia to et the elf princess. We’ll continue training after I return,” Liana said.
“Yes, I understand.”
Liana arrived at the conference room and saw two guards standing watch.
“Princess Liana.”
“I want to go in,” Liana said.
“I’m sorry, Princess Liana, Princess philia and Lady Erinna are discussing so matters inside. We can’t let anyone disturb them,” the guard said.
“Open the door,” Liana repeated.
The two guards were sowhat troubled.
“If you don’t open the door, then step aside,” Liana said.
“Let her in,” Erinna, inside the conference room, had already heard Liana’s voice.
“Yes!” The guards opened the conference room door, and Liana entered.
“Liana, are you alright now?” philia asked with concern, as Liana’s complexion hadn’t looked good earlier.
“I’m fine now,” Liana sat beside philia. “How’s it going?”
“It’s been handled. Now, we just need to trust in Erinna’s abilities.” By the ti Liana entered, they had already begun organizing the materials, seemingly reaching the end.
“Erinna,” Liana suddenly called Erinna’s na.
“What is it, Liana?” Erinna was puzzled. “Is it like before, wanting to show off how intimate you two are in front of ? Unfortunately, I’m not a child anymore. Now, I have more important matters to handle.”
“...” This person—Liana had, for once, wanted to encourage her. But seeing her dark circles, Liana felt sowhat sympathetic.
At this age, having to bear so many responsibilities. philia had it better; at least she had two other heirs to help with matters, and if real problems arose, King Lisat was watching over her.
Erinna was different. She could only rely on herself, with many people watching her—either beco the duchess or be expelled, possibly even face death.
“Keep it up, don’t exhaust yourself, rember to rest... after all, if you collapse, then I’ll have to beco the Venus Duchess whether I want to or not. I don’t want such trouble,” Liana said.
“...” Erinna hadn’t expected Liana to say such words. “Well, thank you, Liana. It’s just that things will be busier for a while. Once I handle these matters, there shouldn’t be any problems.”
Liana then thought of sothing and had Minoga fetch a small pouch from her room.
“This is...” philia imdiately recognized what Liana was holding. Wasn’t this the tea that King Lisat had given to Liana before?
At that ti, Liana had complained to her that the tea was bitter, but due to face, she had to accept it.
“This is tea bestowed upon by King Lisat, and now I’m giving it to you,” Liana said. “You should receive it with gratitude. After all, His Majesty the King likes this very much. It must have sothing special about it.”
“Liana, if you don’t like bitter tea, just say so...” philia couldn’t bear to watch. Wasn’t it obvious that Liana didn’t want to drink it herself, didn’t want to waste it sitting there, so she was just casually giving it to Erinna while trying to earn so goodwill?
However, this was indeed tea bestowed by King Lisat, a rather precious item.
“What are you saying!” Liana imdiately retorted. “I can handle bitterness just fine. I just see that Erinna has been overworking lately and wanted her to drink sothing good as a snack. What if she happens to like this bitter taste?”
“...” Erinna actually did like this bitter taste.
It kept her alert and reminded her of her situation and status.
“Thank you, Liana,” Erinna accepted the tea. “I will cherish this gift from you.”
“See? She likes it,” Liana said.
“You two have beco so close,” Erinna looked at the two of them, sowhat enviously.
