I’ll Become a Villainess That Will Go Down in History

Chapter 375

Duke responded with a smile, as I tilted my head slightly and stared up at him.

“I have information on how the medicine from Maddie could be made.”

With that, he held out a few sheets of paper to me. I just stared at them, unable to move, as they swayed slightly in the wind.

It was a detailed analysis of what Maddie was made up of.

“Why is this…?”

I was so confused that I couldn’t come up with words.

There should be no Maddie in Duelkis Kingdom, so why…?

How did they get such valuable information?

“I spent a lot of time in the royal library last night. Thanks to that, I didn’t sleep well.”

Mel yawned loudly as she giggled, while Duke didn’t seem to be in the least bit concerned.

“How did you manage to find it in that huge library?”

“I thought it was never going to happen, but Duke went along with me because he had seen it somewhere once. So we found it. Duke’s memory is really scary!”

Mel replied to Henry’s words.

It made my heart flutter to think that he had been busy trying to change the school rules but also took the time to do even more for me.

Duke’s presence made me strongly believe that ‘I was not alone’ . And with Alicia leaving and Gramps possibly doomed to die, I believed I had the strongest ally I could have ever asked for.

“Thank you.”

I said and took the paper. I clutched the paper tightly, even though Gramps said he would not last long. I would not give up.

I would analyze the ingredients thoroughly and make the medicine.

“Henry, I’m going home today.”

“Oh, if you need any help, you can always tell me.”

I nodded and left.

Mel plopped the last of the muffin into her mouth and swallowed it, while I stared at Gilles’ back. Then, after a breath, she opened her mouth.

“He kind of resembles Aliali.”

“He’s really trying to be like her after all.”

Henry spoke after Duke responded to Mel’s remarks.

“I wonder how much pressure he’s under every day, being at a magic academy when he can’t use magic. …I mean, they have to leave some kind of mark. I wonder if we’re helping in any way.”

“Gilles tends to push himself too hard, doesn’t he?”

“I’m sure he’ll be fine.”

Mel and Henry’s eyes shifted to Duke as he spoke confidently.

“Gilles will pull it off because Alicia is also that kind of person. Besides, Gilles has already beaten Alicia in terms of knowledge.”

“”eh?””

Henry and Mel’s voices overlap.

“I’m sure he has already read most of the Williams family’s books. Maybe next time I’ll let him have access to my home library.”

“Seriously.”

Henry was surprised at the amount of reading Gilles had done, and at the same time, he was impressed that Duke had looked that closely into Gilles’ mind.

“If Gilles wasn’t so much younger, I’d be able to honestly say he’s wonderful~!”

Mel raised her voice.

“You’re too brash”, Henry retorted in exasperation.

“If Gilles had been a beautiful girl, he would have been a good find.”

“That’s right, Duke! I love pretty girls as well!”

Mel replied to Duke’s words with a twinkle in her eye.

Henry muttered in his mind that it would be better not to probe too deeply into Mel’s mind.
