The Villainous Noblewoman Is About to Be Forced into Love, Isn’t This Wrong? Chapter 82: I’ll keep watching you

Loraviel arrived on the second floor with the luggage. The space there was expansive, featuring a tiger-skin sofa and a table, likely a dining table, adorned with gold edges that appeared quite luxurious and opulent.

Suddenly, she noticed a magical artifact made from a magic stone on the table. Although its purpose was unclear, Loraviel felt it might be sothing used for physical training.

There seed to be a steaming cup of tea on the table. Why was there only one cup? Was it perhaps the tea Princess peilu had while waiting for Lady Liana? Could this be considered a special treatnt for Lady Liana?

Just as Loraviel was about to call out for Princess peilu, she heard Lady Liana’s voice and saw Princess peilu's smile.

This made Loraviel realize she had closed her mouth. She walked towards the source of the voices, intending to call out to Princess peilu—not to eavesdrop!

Princess peilu was standing at the doorway. Her room door was not tightly closed; a slight push could reveal a small crack.

Through it, she saw Lady Liana and Princess peilu lying on the bed together, holding hands and laughing.

Listening to their conversation, Loraviel confird her previous thoughts—Princess peilu indeed knew the truth about Lady Liana.

The knowledge of Lady Liana’s true character was no longer exclusive to her alone.

Loraviel clenched her fist. Eavesdropping wasn’t comndable, but she couldn’t help but stay.

How wonderful it must be to openly chat and hold hands with Lady Liana, to show such a good front to others. Loraviel bit her lip but then suddenly heard her own na ntioned by Lady Liana.

Her tightly clasped hands began to loosen.

"I will always watch over you from below, supporting you," Lady Liana told peilu.

"Thank you, I know," peilu felt warmly comforted.

"By the way, peilu, may I ask you a favor?"

Lady Liana’s feet, wrapped in black silk, swayed back and forth. From outside the door, Loraviel felt like she was looking at tempting chocolate.

"...? What is it? If it’s within my power, I’ll help you, Liana," peilu turned to look at Liana.

"It’s about Loraviel," Liana said, after which both fell silent.

"...?" peilu went quiet—why did Liana bring up another woman in front of her again!

"...?" Loraviel also fell silent—why did Lady Liana suddenly ntion her na?

"Loraviel?" peilu’s tone dropped slightly.

"Liana, I also have sothing to tell you about Loraviel."

Loraviel’s heart tightened—was Princess peilu forcing her to leave Lady Liana’s side?

Princess peilu indeed had the power to do so, and it seed likely that if Princess peilu proposed it, Lady Liana might agree.

"...What’s up?" Liana turned to face peilu, a strand of golden hair falling onto her lips.

"Rember you asked to send soone to help Loraviel’s town a little while ago?"

"Yes."

"I discovered that the town had long been designated as a support area, but when our troops got there, they found no such arrangents had been made. The reports were different, and there was an error at so point in the process."

"Although there was so assistance, it was far less than originally requested, and quite harsh. Soone had embezzled the materials sent by Lisat Kingdom."

"But don’t worry, those culprits have been caught, and now they are being judged by the magistrate."

"So, Liana, did you specifically ask to confirm this after learning about it?"

Liana shook her head, "Not really, I just wanted you to protect Loraviel’s family and fellow villagers."

"Loraviel’s hotown is quite remote, and even ordinary nobles who go there could not be resisted by the people of Gran Town, especially because of my connection, Loraviel might also be implicated. I don’t want my association to cause her harm."

"Although it seems like I’m already hurting her... That’s why I’m trying to compensate her, I don’t want her family to get hurt because of ."

"Don’t worry, it was just a misunderstanding, once it’s cleared up..."

peilu paused, "If the misunderstanding is cleared, won’t Loraviel really owe loyalty to Liana for life?"

"Maybe it’s better to comfort Liana for now, although Liana doesn’t mind such matters, peilu still doesn’t want others to misunderstand Liana. She occasionally hears others malign Liana, and it makes her angry on Liana’s behalf."

"Once the misunderstanding is cleared, it'll be fine, and haven’t you been helping Loraviel all along?"

【Indeed... I wasn’t wrong.】

Loraviel stood outside the door, hearing everything clearly. Although previous evidence had already indicated that Lady Liana was not deceiving her, hearing it firsthand still made her extrely angry—she had been misunderstanding Lady Liana all along.

“And Liana, your judgnt wasn’t wrong,” peilu said.

"...What do you an?" Liana suddenly had a bad premonition.

"Nel? That was her na, right? She went to Gran Town a while back to replace your previous woman, Sally."

"Because Nas Estate is further from Gran Town, and after they arrived, they slightly bullied the residents, apparently looking for sothing."

"But the guards stationed in Gran Town quickly subdued them. However, due to the nobility of the perpetrators and without causing major trouble, they were detained briefly and then let go," peilu explained.

"Ah?" Liana opened her mouth wide, platinum hair falling into her mouth.

Liana sat up, "Ptooey! Ptooey! Ptooey!"

She spat out the hair, "The residents of Gran Town didn’t show any abnormalities!"

Liana, in her haste, bit her tongue, "Ouch..."

Liana stuck out her tongue, speaking with a slight lisp, "They didn’t encounter any accidents, right? They weren’t hurt?"

"Not now,"

"The only one hurt is you, Liana."

"Holy divine magic directly healed Liana’s injured tongue."

"Thank, thank you."

"They weren’t hard, just so minor surface injuries, and the priests also treated them imdiately. During this period, we of Lisat Kingdom will also make up for our previous negligence and will enhance support for that area, so royal knights will also be stationed in Gran Town, you don’t have to worry about their safety."

"You’ve really helped a lot! Thank you so much." Liana suddenly hugged peilu.

"...I only did what I should have done, if you hadn’t spoken to beforehand, perhaps I wouldn’t have even realized, and Lisat Kingdom might have faced such a disastrous sign."

peilu was still too young, her thods too naive compared to those old things.

"Fortunately, nothing bad happened." Liana’s heart was racing.

If anything had happened to Loraviel’s family, her own life wouldn’t be enough to pay Loraviel back.

Moreover, she really didn’t want such a thing to happen, especially since she didn’t want others to get hurt because of her, and with the main character gone, Loraviel was an absolutely central character, nothing could happen to her.

Liana was also intending to discuss this matter.

"My heart is beating very fast," peilu could feel it. "Are you afraid because you have hurt soone?"

"It's good that you're still here."

If Liana had noticed any later, an accident might have occurred.

If it weren't for peilu, she would have had to think of another way,

The worst plan would have been to hire so adventurers from Tali to protect Loraviel’s mother.

But these could not be completely trusted, and they were especially prone to exposing themselves.

"Lady Liana..."

Outside the door, Loraviel's heart was also racing.

"Lady Liana's Observation Diary, Entry Eight, Lady Liana and her mother are very gentle and kind people, it's just that sotis they can be a bit blunt."

"So, what do you need my help with regarding Loraviel?" peilu asked.

"You should know well, Loraviel's constitution, or rather, her magical specialty, she is immune to most lethality, even to poisoning, feeling increasing pain as if approaching death, but, as long as she survives it, she can then perfectly replicate those poisons."

"Loraviel, with such a talent, is sowhat wasted by Olivia’s side, no, I'm not saying Olivia is bad

"My apologies, she is a very excellent warrior, but for Loraviel, the way of fighting is sowhat unsuitable for her."

"She not only possesses a talent for poisons but also uses speed magic, and assassination-like professions, as if she were born prepared for it."

"So, being in front of Olivia, a warrior, seems a bit wasteful, and also..." Liana recalled Loraviel's fighting style, "It’s easy for her to be targeted."

"Although I know that the Venus family would be more suitable for Loraviel, you also know my current situation, even if I go to find soone else now, surely no one would help ," Liana said.

"You really care about Loraviel," peilu looked a bit jealous as she watched Liana, "You've already told about this, but I can choose to trust you once more."

"I wasn't interested in these matters before, promises were plentiful, but from now on, I've already agreed, just wait a bit longer, I'll tell you the mont I have news."

Liana was indeed a bit anxious, after all, the disappearance of the protagonist was quite a blow for her, she could no longer just lie back, she had to be fully prepared before the demon race’s revival.

Standing outside the door, Loraviel was trembling slightly, Lady Liana had gone to great lengths for her...

"By the way, where's Minoja? How co she disappeared after coming out?"

"Or is it because it’s very safe here, so there’s no need to follow you around?"

Liana asked curiously.

"Minoja, personally, is like half a servant to , taking care of my daily life, she might be busy with other things now," peilu said.

"As for our esteed Judge, what is Minoja doing now?"

Minoja walked down from the second floor stairs, satisfied.

"Lady Minoja? When did you go in?" Olivia was surprised.

"I've been in the room and haven’t co out," Minoja picked up a parcel,

"The party is lively, aren’t you going to join?"

"Even though Lady Minoja is here, we can’t neglect the guard duty,

"They usually don’t have this opportunity, let them relax a bit."

Olivia stood in front of Minoja, sowhat nervous.

"Um... nice and spacious," Minoja complinted.

Olivia could clearly see that Minoja seed very happy.

"Did Lady Minoja encounter sothing joyful? You seem to be in a very good mood?"

Minoja thought for a mont and played coy, "A secret."

She indeed saw a fine sight, the indescribable look in the young girl's eyes and her absolute loyalty.

Lady Liana is adored by Loraviel, even though there are many misunderstandings about her now, as long as those who are by Lady Liana’s side like her, that’s enough.

"The trauma given by outsiders, let those by her side heal her."

"If that's the case, could Princess peilu heal ?"

"But I also need to help Loraviel a bit, after all, this is also Lady Liana’s command, and Princess peilu agreed to it."

"And, if the competition is too one-sided, it completely loses

"the aning of competition."

"Only by maintaining a relative balance can we make progress together."

"If it’s one-sided domination, it can hardly be called a competition."

"So, do your best, Your Highness, you must win."

...

"I'm a bit thirsty, would you like sothing to drink?" peilu got up from the bed.

"Juice, or plain water is fine," Liana said.

"That tea your father gave you, do you want to try it? You said you quite liked it?" peilu teased.

"...Let's not, I hate bitter things," Liana protested a bit, "Don't tease about this!"

"Lady Liana wouldn’t act coy like this..."

Outside the room, Loraviel saw it all.

"Liana, you can completely refuse, don't force yourself if you don't like it," peilu said.

"I think, no one would dare refuse a royal gift."

"Liana doesn’t have the courage, although she also knows refusing

"wouldn't really be a problem, she could just give it to soone else later, tell her, this is a very precious gift personally bestowed by His Majesty the King."

"Oh! Right! I also have a gift prepared for you."

"Hm? What gift?" peilu looked forward to Liana’s response eagerly.

"I’ll keep you in suspense a bit longer, I'll tell you in a while, but I can give you a hint, you'll probably need this item soon," Liana said.

Mainly because she didn't bring it with her, it was packed in the luggage, but Loraviel would bring it over in a while.

"Alright..." peilu was a bit itchy with curiosity, Liana had given her so many surprises already, so she was very much looking forward to what Liana would bring out this ti.

"So, the tea? Sa as before, you want a lighter taste?" peilu asked.

"I now, prefer sweet things," Liana said.

"Understood," peilu walked towards the door.

Loraviel suddenly tensed up, her sudden appearance here would be suspicious!

"Princess peilu? Are you there?" Loraviel hastily retreated to the staircase and called out.

"Hm?" Liana heard the voice and instantly sprung up from the bed, "Loraviel?"

"What's wrong?" peilu opened her own room door, looking at the not tightly closed door, and didn’t mind much.

After all, peilu was probably still guarding sowhere in this # Nоvеlight # house, and their recent conversation was the kind that it didn't matter if Minoja heard, so peilu was quite relaxed.

Also, because Minoja was present, the earlier conversation wouldn’t be overheard by others. Now, no one could eavesdrop on their conversation under the Judge’s watch, if there really was soone, they wouldn't need to sneak around.

And indeed, if it was about saying sothing more important, peilu would still check whether the door was properly closed.

"I saw Lady Olivia at the main gate, and after explaining the situation to Lady Olivia, she said that the princess's servant had already gone to prepare dinner, so there were temporarily no servants in the residence, and since Lady Olivia still needed to act as a guard, she let bring the luggage in alone," Loraviel held up the luggage she was carrying.
