Why Did I Become the Villainess?

Chapter 208 - : Freedom

 I didn't say anything to Prince Fraser and just stared at him. Prince Fraser doesn't mind, though. He just waves his hand at me. "Can you please, open the door and let them in?"

 I immediately stand up and open the door. All of them look at me with weird expressions on their faces. I just shake my head and let them in. 

 Princess Paislee led the way and gestured her hand to Ruler Laird. "Great Ruler, please come in."

 Ruler Laird looks at me for a couple of seconds before he shakes his head and walks inside the room. He probably wanted to say something to me but changed his mind.

 Leander walked inside too, but Rufus stopped in front of me and gave me a teasing smile. He then leans towards me. "What is that? What happened while you were inside? What did my cousin tell you?"

 I rolled my eyes at Rufus and just closed the door. This guy. Isn't he a bit nosy? 

 I ignore Rufus and walk towards Leander, who is now sitting on Prince Fraser's bed. There are only two chairs in Prince Fraser's room, and the chairs are already occupied by Prince Fraser and Ruler Laird. 

 Prince Fraser looks at Ruler Laird and smiles. "Godfather, apologies if Csille asks for your help again. I already told her not to involve you with my problem. I hope I didn't interfere with your duties."

 Godfather frown at Prince Fraser's words. "Are you still considering me as your Godfather? It's a good thing that Csille told me about your situation. At least, she still considers me as her Godfather. But you, young man." Ruler shakes his head. The disappointment was clearly written on his face. "I already talked to Principal Germund. You can get out of your confinement."

 Prince Fraser's eyes widen. He then looks at me as if asking for confirmation. I nod my head at him as a response.

 "The moment Godfather arrived here. He immediately asks Principal Germund for an explanation of why you are still confined. Principal Germund agrees to let you out. It's the reason why we are all here."

 Prince Fraser nods his head. He then stands up and bows his head at Ruler Laird. "Godfather, please forgive your Godson for not informing you immediately. I was just worried that I'd only burden you with my problem. I know you had a good relationship with Principal Germund, and I don't want to ruin it because of my carelessness. Also, I admit to the mistake I made. So, I think it's only right for me to be responsible for my action."

 I anxiously look at Ruler Laird. I understand why he is disappointed with Prince Fraser. Ruler Laird already considered Prince Fraser as his son, and any father will be disappointed if they hear that their son is in danger, but he wasn't even informed.

 Ruler Laird laughs. "You are really worthy to be my Godson." He stands up and taps the shoulder of Prince Fraser. "It's good that you are taking full responsibility for your action. However, I hope you won't forget that I am your Godfather. What's the use of my power if I couldn't even help you with your problem?"

 Prince Fraser is about to refute, but Ruler Laird cuts him off. "Okay, okay. I won't reprimand you anymore since you protect Csille. Also, I'm really proud of what you did, young man. That piece of sh*t deserves some beating after insulting my dear Csille. It's a good thing you beat him, or else I don't know if he'll be alive after I beat him."

 Prince Fraser scoff. "Brandr should be thankful to me then. I just saved his life."

 Ruler Laird laughs at Prince Fraser's remarks. He then put his arm to Prince Fraser's shoulder. "Come on, let's get out of this room. I heard there are restaurants that serve Vrawyth food here. Why don't we all eat there for dinner?"

 Prince Fraser immediately agrees. So, naturally, everyone doesn't have any other choice but to agree. 

 In the end, we all went out to Alderrdeen City Capital to stroll around and to eat Vrawyth Food. It was already late when we came to the School.

 I bid my goodbye to all of them before I head to my own down to rest. 

 "Ahh, I'm exhausted. Today is a great day. At least we don't have to worry about Prince Fraser anymor—"

 "You're worried about me?"

 I almost jumped out of fright when I heard someone speak behind me. I looked back and found Prince Fraser smiling at me. It's a teasing smile.

 I sigh. "Can you not startled me like that. I almost have a heart attack." I look at Prince Fraser's back and frown when I don't see Princess Paislee.

 Wherever Prince Fraser goes, Princess Paislee is always behind him. However, it seems like Princess Paislee is not with him tonight.

 Isn't the female lead quite generous to the villainess? She even let her Prince talk to me alone. Isn't she afraid Csille will take Prince Fraser away from her?

 "Who are you looking for?" 

 I shake my head. "I was looking for Sir Farren. He is usually around you everywhere you go. So, I was wondering where he could be." I look at Prince Fraser. "Aren't you a little complacent? Brandr's friends are still in Alderdeen School of Knowledge. Aren't you afraid they'll attack you? After all, you knocked off Brandr."

 Prince Fraser smirk. "They can try if they want. I don't really mind. However, they need to make sure that they can win against me or else they will just end up like their friend."

 How can I forget about Prince Fraser's skill? How can those puny Brandr's friends can go against Prince Fraser? They are just courting death if they really do that.

 "What are you doing here, Prince Fraser? Shouldn't you go back to your own room now?"

 Prince Fraser's room is in the opposite direction of my dorm. That's why I don't understand what is he doing here.

 Prince Fraser stares straight into my eyes. "I was worried for your safety. You enticed the public to go against Brandr and his friends. Do you think they will leave you off just like that?"

 After the commotion I made. Principal Germund talked to Brandr's friend, and I heard from Lilla that those guys were kicked out. However, they still need to finish this school year since there is only a month left before the school year end. That's why they are still staying in school. 

 However, I'm really not worried about them. They were already banned from entering Alderrdeen City after they left here. If they do something that enrages Principal Germund, I bet the Ingvar family or even their own families will not survive.

 I shrugged my shoulders. "Do you think they will be so dumb to further enrage Principal Germund? Also, after Principal Germund knows that both of us are Ruler Laird's Godchildren. Do you think he will let anything happen to us? You should see how Principal Germund looks after being scolded by Godfather. So you can rest assured that nothing bad will happen to me. And can't you see? I'm just a few steps away from my dorm."

 Prince Fraser looks at our dormitory building before he sighs. "I still want to make sure that you get to your room safe. So, don't mind me."

 I almost groan in frustration. How can I not mind? My heart is beating wildly just by talking to you? And you expect me to be okay? Please, can you give my heart a break?

 However, even if I want to throw those words at Prince Fraser, I just keep my mouth shut.

 Forget it! I'll just pretend that I didn't hear him. That he isn't existing.

 I walk faster so I can reach my dorm immediately. 

 I need to get away from Prince Fraser immediately! I don't want to make another mistake again. Staying with him for the whole night the other day is a mistake that I don't want to repeat. Never again.

 I almost cried in joy when I saw the entrance of our dorm. I didn't care about Prince Fraser or my image. I just run towards the entrance and never look back. 

 I only look back when I am in front of my room now. I sighed when I couldn't find Prince Fraser behind me. 

 I'm sorry, Prince Fraser. I really need to distance myself from you. I don't want to be stuck at the Kosmo like those spirits.

 "Lady Csille! You are finally here!" Lilla waves her arms at me enthusiastically. 

 I immediately walk towards her and smile. "It's too early in the morning, and you seem so excited. Is there's something that happened?"

 Lilla leans towards my ears. "Haven't you heard?"

 I frown. I haven't talked to anyone this morning. After I freshen myself, I directly get here, and since it's too early for our first class, there aren't students around. 

 "Did something happen that I should know?"

 After Prince Fraser got out of his confinement, I didn't really care about anything else. Also, with Ruler Laird, I don't think I need to worry about anything.

 "Brandr woke up this morning."

 I raised my eyebrow. If it's before, I would probably get anxious by the fact that Brandr woke up. But after witnessing how Ruler Laird scolds Principal Germund, I'm already assured that everything will be fine.

 "That's great then."

 Lilla looked at me with a confused expression. "Lady Csille, aren't you worried about his highness, Prince Fraser?"

 I paused and looked at Lilla. Worried about Prince Fraser? Why would I be worried about it? We have Ruler Laird with our side. 

 I shake my head. "No, I'm not. Should I be worried?"

 Lilla shakes her head. She looks so confused about what is happening. I chuckled at her reaction and tapped her shoulder. 

 "Don't misunderstand my words. I'm not worried because I know Prince Fraser can get over this. He only did that to protect me. So, what should I be worried about? Let the law do its job. You shouldn't get worried."

 Lilla bites her lips. "But Csille, what if Brandr pushes the blame to Prince Fraser? The Ingvar family is from the Great Seven Kingdom. The Ouqeaseon is an ally of the Aeslaerean Kingdom. Aren't you worried?"

 I chuckled. "And have you forgotten where I am from? I'm from the Vrawyth Kingdom. What can the Aeslaerean do to us? So, you shouldn't get worried. We can handle this issue." I wink at her.

 Lilla sigh. "Yeah, how can I forget that his highness, Prince Fraser is the crown Prince of the Vrawyth Kingdom? Of course, why would you even get worried over the Ingvar family."

 I just smile at Lilla. Although I have said that, I couldn't forget how much anxiety we felt back then. 

 Even if the Vrawyth Kingdom is on the top spot among the Seven Kingdoms, it doesn't mean that we can endure the force of the six Kingdoms. If that happens, I doubt if we can even save our own lives.

 I shake my head. Forget it. For now, I'll just focus on my class and my presentation.

 After the class, Lilla and I get some lunch in one of the restaurants inside the school. 

 "Lady Csille, do you know what happened yesterday?" 

 I put the glass of juice first before answering her. "Yesterday? What happened yesterday?" 

 I think I know what she is talking about. It's about Ruler Laird's arrival. Students are now speculating what happened yesterday, but no one ever confirmed what really happened. 

 The news about Ruler Laird's arrival was suppressed by Principal Germund as requested by Godfather. So no one, aside from the people who welcome Ruler Laird, are the one who knows the truth. 

 Lilla pouts while staring at me. "Csille, you are really unfair. I know you know what I am saying. You even said that I should just wait and see what will happen. But it's been a day now, and I still don't know what happened."

 I just smile at her. Although I really want to inform her that Ruler Laird is already in Alderrdeen, I know I cannot say that. It's better if a few people know Ruler Laird's arrival. 

 If people know that Ruler Laird is here, I'm sure those people will rush here to flock around Ruler Laird. That's why I cannot say it to anyone. Even Lilla.

 "Never mind.. It's best if you know less."
