I Am The Last Villainess He Has To Kill

Chapter 15

Chapter 15

I picked it up on the way here

‘How can I have fun killing it?'

At that moment, a sound broke through the numerous sounds and tickled Bella's ear.

"Bella."

It was Kiehl's voice.

While she paused for a moment, the bandit was frightened and immediately turned around and ran away.

‘What was I thinking now…?’

Bella shook the sword in her hand as she lowered it slowly.

"Why did you keep him alive?"

Zanbar, who was quietly appreciating from the tree, stopped clapping his hands.

“Miss…?”

Bella did not respond to Zanbar's words, but turned her back and approached Kiehl instead. Kiehl, covered with the bandages and only had one eye barely open, was exhaling his breath and calling out Bella's name.

"Are you okay? Are you awake?"

At her question, Kiehl nodded his head weakly.

"What did those bastards do to you?"

As Bella looked around his body in tears, Iwer answered slowly.

“It's okay. It’s okay, he’s special…”

Iwer was lying next to Kiehl and moaning.

"Mi..ss…help me…"

As soon as Bella grabbed the sword on her back, she felt a burning pain in her palm.

"Wow, what is this?"

It was with divine power. Like the rope hanging in front of the door. Bella had never dealt with anything with divine powers.

‘Those bastards make only useless things…’

When the sword was removed, Bella's palm had turned black as if she had been burned.

As time goes by, she will recover, though she probably won't recover easily because it's a divine thing.

***

"Iwer, are you okay?"

"I…I think I'll be fine if I just eat one man."

Bella nodded her head as she was repeatedly folding and unfolding her numb hand.

"I see."

Fortunately, Kiehl was only dazed by Iwer’s blood, but he didn't appear to have been seriously injured.

‘Did they think that Kiehl was also a dream demon and stab him?’

He had a few puncture marks, but it looked like he had been given first aid immediately. Because of this pretty face, she remembered the setting that he had experienced things that were difficult to put into words in the original book from a young age.

Bella just sighed bitterly.

"Bella… are you okay?"

"Huh?"

Kiehl asked in a trembling voice with his eyes wet.

‘He must have been scared. Look at him worrying about me.'

She tried to wipe Kiehl’s tears but lowered her hand when she saw someone else's blood on her hands.

"I'm fine. Didn’t I say? The Princess of the Animal Kingdom is powerful."

Then, Zanbar slammed the door open.

"Miss, I think it's a bit settled, I'll bring Jenkins."

“We're going there. We're going to buy weapons for our original purpose…”

At that, Bella stopped and looked around.

"No. Let's just rob this place. It's annoying."

“Then, Jenkins…”

"Take all the weapons here and go to Jenkins…"

Before she could finish speaking, Zanbar began to pick up a weapon nearby.

"Ahh!"

Hearing the sound of the holy sword hitting the ground, Zanbar looked at Bella with bewildered leopard eyes.

"Hey, you can't hold it. Just take three or four swords from the dead bandits."

"Yes!"

"And, there was money and valuables in the next room. Take that as well."

"Yes!"

As soon as the situation seemed to have settled down to some extent, the door swung open again, and Iwer came in with a bewitching pose.

"Ta-da! Iwer’s back."

“You… you look fine.”

"If the Miss is tired, too, go out and eat."

Bella sighed and wiped her bloody hands on her clothes.

"Ah, forget it."

She rebuked Iwer with a frown on her face.

"Hmm. When you look at it like this, you don't look like a real animal kingdom princess."

"Quiet."

Bella knew now what she needed most.

Celestial races and demons have nicknames of light and shadow in the world, but the reality is a little different. So, the standard of being good and evil is the standard set by the celestial race. Celestial races gain power based on order, and demons follow order based purely on power.

‘Though there is no order.'

And, that power mostly flowed from the lives of others. Demons were accustomed to taking other people's lives by themselves.

Hence, what Bella needs the most…

It was human blood and flesh.

‘I was a police officer in a previous life… No matter how I am in a novel, I can't become a cannibal.'

Anyway, as time passed, the magic remaining in the human world would gradually accumulate and recover.

***

Bella slowly approached the holy sword and picked it up again. Her palms still hurt as though they were burning.

When the light shines, the darkness disappears, and when the darkness is dyed by the light, the light loses its light.

Although she was not yet an adult, and although she was human, it was absorbing Bella's magical powers like a black hole.

‘I don't know what kind of crazy celestial race this was, but he must have made it by putting on his life.'

There was a temple nearby, so it must have come from there.

‘Isn't it funny that something like this is easily stolen by bandits?'

They returned to the carriage full of money and were quite exhausted.

"I don't think I need to go to Daisy. The swords I picked for some reason seem to be in good shape."

"You seem to have been hit hard, but it seems that you will recover quickly."

There was no space to put the luggage separately, so Iwer drove the carriage with weapons and money on the driver's seat.

"It's eventful, really."

Bella let out a long sigh and pointed the holy sword to Kiehl's left.

"Kiehl. Would you like to hold that?"

Maybe it was because the sword was a holy thing, and when Kiehl caught it, it looked like a halo was shining from behind.

"Um… Kiehl. I'll give it to you in advance as a birthday present this year."

The novel has a lot of power to move on to the original story. Instead of a pendant that has lost its divine power, maybe it will help Kiehl's life as a prince in the future.

Zanbar looked puzzled at Bella's words, and then said,

"Miss. Are you giving him what you picked up as a gift?"

"I picked it up on the way here. I found it."

"What the hell is that? You don't give gifts that you pick up on the street."

Jenkins looked at Zanbar and muttered.

“Lies…”

Bella knew what Jenkins was saying to her, and she looked at him with her arms crossed. "Jenkins. What did you say?"

"It seems a little too big for the young master to handle."

“I got it, but I don’t need to throw it away, right?”

“It's a complete piece of garbage—”

"Guys, I'm very annoyed today. Shut up."

***

It was embarrassing to be attacked by a bandit, but they gained quite a lot. Once they sold the valuables, they had quite a bit of money.

Besides, Bella has come up with a trick to get a steady income.

In fact, when the money ran out, she thought that she should sell bear bile because Pur is a bear. Something even better than that was right in front of her.

"Iwer, can you make a love potion with your blood?"

Higher level demons were able to make it in large quantities with little fatigue.

Seeing that the ghosts attached to this mansion in the past also worked hard to make love potions, they are clearly sold in the market, so it's probably not illegal.

When she started selling it to the magic shop in town, she was able to put my money worries away.

***

And, most importantly, Kiehl's sword practice.

Bella set up a scarecrow in the garden so that Kiehl could practice the sword.

"Shall we find a talented teacher?"

As Jenkins spoke, she nodded her head. "Yes. Don't worry about that. Just teach him the basics. Jenkins, do you know how to do that?"

Bella asked, scanning Jenkins up and down.

"You were so helpless last, I couldn’t believe it."

“Miss. At that time, the group that attacked us was thirty, thirty.”

"Teach the basics for now—how to hold a sword. Discuss with Zanbar and take care of physical training as well."

“…With Sir Zanbar?”

As Jenkins froze, Bella crossed her arms and clicked her tongue.

"Why, don't you like it? Get along for a bit."

***

And so, Kiehl's routine got busier and busier.

When he wakes up in the morning, he starts with training, and after lunch, he always studies with Jenkins.

Then, swordsmanship practice.

‘I mean, it's really strange that things happen unexpectedly.'

Kiehl stared blankly at Bella watering the flowers in the garden.

‘Even when I first came…’

In order not to be thrown away, he had tried to receive plenty of adoration from the powerhouse of this mansion. But, he doesn't seem to have put a lot of effort into it.

Suddenly, he became Bella's favorite. So, fortunately now, he didn't seem to need to try to win her favor with his cuteness.

Kiehl approached Bella slowly.

"Bella."

"Huh? What's wrong?"

“This is what Iwer gave me to eat…” He said, breaking the cookie he was holding in his hand and showed it to Bella.

"Let’s eat together."

He grabbed the piece of snack with his fingers and brought it close to Bella's mouth.

"Ah~ Do it—Ah."

Bella smiled, opened her mouth, took the cookie, and ate it happily.

Surely, he wouldn't have to work this hard, but Kiehl's strangely couldn't stop.

***

The small and tickling daily life flowed quickly, and snow began to slowly pile up on the top of the mountain behind.

Bella thought, carefully examining the notes she had prepared beforehand.

"The time has come for us to meet her."

In the novel, she was the person Kiehl had to meet around this age.

Myu is the girlfriend who strengthens the relationship between Rosanne and Kiehl. It was a relationship that started when Kiehl was eleven or twelve years old, Kiehl was meant to hand out a slice of bread in the cold winter.

Kiehl can't remember, but Myu remembered that pretty face clearly.

So, she considered Kiehl to be her friend, and so did the female lead, Rosanne.

She misunderstands the identity of the two at first, though as the novel progresses, she becomes the person who supports their love more than anyone else.

Hence, in the end, even if Bella ignores other settings, she could not ignore ‘Myu.’

"By the way, where is this Myu?"

Winter came soon, and no matter how much she searched, there was no place to meet. At that time, the words the team leader had spoken in her previous life ran through her head.

"Hey. If it doesn’t work, you have to run on your feet."

"Yeah. Let's run with our feet."

Bella pulled a fluffy coat from her closet and put it on with a pounding heart as if she were doing an investigation.

‘Is it okay if I leave my place for a little bit…?’

She was nervous, but she has to find it herself.

‘Trust Jenkins, let's empty it out.'

Even when Bella left her place, the demons in the mansion only knew how to enjoy freedom without Bella for a long time.
