Not a Villainess but a Maid

#036 The search for milk is all the rage! (2)

“Do you want to put a hole in my stomach, or do you want to follow me quietly?”

I felt dizzy.

I have been through many crises since being possessed, but this was the first time that I had faced such a direct threat to my life.

‘What should I do? Should I use magic?’

If I dazzled him with the Sun Fist, I would have enough room to run away, but the problem was Momo.

She couldn’t act hastily as she was being held by one of her men and threatened with her knife.

Once she pretended to follow his commands, she slowly approached with her hands raised.

As she takes one step at a time, numerous thoughts pass through her head.

Now, let alone saving her mother, I did not have the strength to protect my own life.

The words Ruby had said before were repeated in her head.

[ Amber, you are too weak. ]

‘···.’

She’s right.

Despite facing this crisis, I secretly hope for someone’s help.

Even though there is no one here who can help me.

I reached the front of the man and roughly turned my body towards him, suppressing both of his hands.

“You are obedient. “I like it quite a bit, don’t you?”

“···.”

“It’s a shame you’re a commoner, but I’ll put you to good use in other ways.”

This was when the man tried to tie my hands while holding me down with his arms, my lips clenched.

-Cheolpuk.

“What the f*ck!”

A powerful stream of water flew from somewhere and hit the man directly in his eyes.

The man who was suddenly caught in the eye winced slightly and took a step back.

‘Who is it?’

Looking in the direction from which the stream of water came, a woman wearing a school uniform was facing towards me with her hands shaking with a frightened expression.

‘Clara…?’

The person who helped me was the evil girl Clara.

I’m not sure why she helped me, but she had a hunch that this was the best opportunity to get out.

“f*ck my eyes…!”

The man whose eyeballs were attacked by tremendous water pressure was still covering his eyes and swearing.

There was at least enough room to throw a punch.

-Pazizik.

I wrapped my hands in lightning and assumed a regime stance.

What I’m about to do from now on isn’t strictly magic, but can be seen as something closer to an appropriate mix of magic and physical attacks.

I shouted the name of the technology I made up on the spot in my mind and punched the man.

‘Lightning Punch!’

Of course, there was no such technology in the original.

Where was I aiming for?

Generally speaking, the solar plexus or philtrum are representative vital points.

But before I was possessed, I was a man myself, someone who knew the male body better than anyone else.

Then there is only one place to aim, right?

“Kahak…!”

The fist containing his weight and electricity dug into something soft and squishy, and the man fell to the ground.

The power contained in the fist itself cannot be said to be that strong, but the vital point was a vital point.

Seeing as he collapsed while spouting white foam, it could be expected that he was in quite a bit of pain.

“You crazy b*tch, you’re rebelling and you’re being damned…!”

There was no time to enjoy the joy of a successful attack.

Another man, enraged by the fact that his colleague had attacked, threw down the momo he was holding and swung his sword in my direction.

‘···!’

Just by looking at his muscles and size, he could see that this man was much stronger than the one he had just defeated.

I felt an instinctive threat and used another magic towards the man.

‘Solar Fist!’

As the dazzling light flashed all over my body, the man reflexively closed his eyes.

“Ugh…!”

Short blade attacks that are swung indiscriminately with vision blocked.

I was already well-versed in evasion through training with Amethyst.

‘It’s worth avoiding…!’

There was no way that an unpolished blade wielded with only lethal force could hit me.

Even after this, the evasion rate had increased significantly.

I easily avoided the random attacks.

At that time, Clara’s voice was heard from behind.

“Amber, bend down!”

“Yes?”

– Push shoo shoo.

When I bowed down as she said, magic bullets of various attributes flew at me.

Klara’s gang, who were hiding in the bushes, each used the strongest magic they could use to shoot the man.

“Ugh…!”

The man, feeling threatened by the barrage of magical attacks, stopped swinging his sword and took a defensive stance.

“f*ck, there were more people around!?”

Realizing that he was outnumbered, the man kicked his fallen comrade and shouted.

“Wake up, you bastard! “We have to jump!”

“Yes, brother…!”

They ran away without even looking back.

After confirming that the men were no longer visible, I breathed a sigh of relief.

“···Phew.”

Once again, I felt fortunate that only women could use magic in this world.

If not, they would have used magic and attacked us.

When I just encountered the knife, my heart was really pounding.

After I finally calmed down, I saw Clara and her group sitting on the floor.

Momo still seemed confused, covered in a black cloth, so I approached Clara and asked her to understand the situation properly.

“Clara. “Maybe you sent me a threatening letter…”

“···.”

It seemed like the fear from just moments ago had not gone away.

Clara, who wrapped my arm around her as if to calm the trembling of her shoulders, glared at me with a face of complete resignation and confessed her crime.

“···Yes. “I planned it all.”

“···.”

I no longer felt the same venom from her as before.

From Noble mtl dot com

“···Other people are not involved. He just moved according to my urging. “You are free to report me to the student council or tell Ruby.”

She is clearly a villain based on the circumstances.

Of course, the actions I have done up until now deserve not to be forgiven.

But, it was also true that if it hadn’t been for her, I wouldn’t have been able to save her life.

“Let’s just move on.”

“···Yes?”

“Since you saved me, let’s just count what we exchanged and move on.”

“What on earth are you saying…?”

I felt that she was looking at me with strange eyes.

“If Clara hadn’t come forward then, I probably wouldn’t have been able to do anything.”

It was Clara’s magic that gave me the opportunity to fight back when I was frozen and unable to do anything.

“···You, the person who has been subjected to such things until now…”

As I quietly looked at Clara, she lowered her head.

“And if Clara gets expelled, who will fill the club membership?”

“···I don’t understand. “He is an idiot himself.”

Her expression became complex and subtle, as if she didn’t understand my actions.

It looked like it was about to break at any moment, so I slightly looked away.

“Take care of yourselves and see you tomorrow. “I’ll take the cat back.”

After being released from the cage, Milk jumped into my arms and licked my face.

“Meow-“

“I was hungry. “Let’s go and eat.”

As I walked back with milk in my arms, complicated thoughts ran through my head.

I wonder what the consequences of neglecting Clara’s actions today will be in the future…

‘···I don’t know either.’

Let’s stop by the student council and explain this incident slowly.

After that, I just wanted to go back to my room and soak in the hot water.

***

After Amber left her place with her cat, Clara peeled her sack off from her mother.

“Pua…!”

Momo asked, barely able to get out of her sack and breathe in fresh oxygen.

“I thought I was going to die from frustration. “What on earth happened just now?”

But instead of Clara answering, she hugged Momo tightly.

“···!”

Momo, who was suddenly taken aback by her, spoke in confusion.

“···Oh, Clara?”

“···I’m glad you’re safe.”

Normally, she would be the one who was harsh and scolded, but there were all sorts of strange things happening to her.

“I’m okay, Clara. “I wasn’t hurt at all.”

“···.”

Clara, who had been holding her in that state for a while, quietly got away from her and said.

“···Let’s stop for today. “Everyone must be tired.”

“Yes…”

That day, while returning to the dormitory, they were quiet and did not say a word.

***

The night sky has already become dark.

After experiencing one failure, the duo was approaching the academy again, very grumpy.

“How many guards are there? One two···.”

Guards were seen wandering around the area as if the incident that occurred during the day had spread throughout the academy.

A man with scratches on his face from magic grumbled.

“f*ck, I said we would just do reconnaissance during the day and then go back. “Why do you do what you want…”

“Did I really think we would be gathered like that, brother?”

It was good that they had captured two defenseless women, but they had no idea that there were more people around.

“Huh?”

As they approached the academy, a woman sitting alone on a bench under the nearby clock tower caught their eye.

“Isn’t that a student?”

A blonde woman wearing a black school uniform and sitting quietly.

“That’s right. “She’s wearing a school uniform.”

“Why are you out here at this hour?”

“I’m not a kid. “I guess he’s secretly trying to meet his lover outside.”

Anyway, it was a sweet opportunity for them.

‘It seems like the women at this academy have no care whatsoever. Well, it’s good for me…’

Since there was no one around her except her, it was the perfect opportunity to kidnap her.

They quietly approached her, picking up the cloth from behind, without even bothering to take out their knives.

When she reached the point where she was about three steps away from the blonde girl, she suddenly spoke to her.

“Are you a little late this time?”

“···!”

An unidentified girl who talks to them without even looking back.

‘A little late this time…?’

The back of the girl who was speaking incomprehensibly looked surprisingly relaxed.

Moreover, I approached her very carefully so as not to step on her, but she was caught in vain.

“Let’s finish it quickly. “I have an appointment later.”

After a while, seeing her turn around and smile happily as if she knew them, her men burst into laughter.

“What is this b*tch saying now? “Did I eat something wrong?”

“No normal year would have come out to a place like this at this hour. Older brother”

Normally, when two strong people surround one with murderous intent, one would naturally cower.

But this woman’s head had really turned, as she was calmly stretching out her arms.

“You know what kind of people we are now…”

“A member of a two-member kidnapping organization. “You’re Eric Smith and Jeff Miller, right?”

“Huh? How do you do that…”

I disguised myself thoroughly to prevent my identity from being revealed, and I already had 7 fake names.

The woman in front of me said their real names accurately without a single mistake.

They had been committing repeated crimes by kidnapping noble daughters wandering around the academy and demanding a large ransom.

But this was the first time in her life that the woman knew their true identity.

“Brother, no matter how I look at this woman, she looks a bit suspicious…? Would it be okay···?”

One of the gang members asked with anxious eyes, but the other shook her head and said.

“It doesn’t matter. “Stab!”

The two drew swords with sharp black edges and rushed towards the girl.

***

The two men were lying ungainly, buried among the fluttering ice fragments.

‘···What on earth is that woman…?’

She didn’t even allow hands to touch her body.

As if they knew from which direction their attacks would come, they unleashed their magic against the two giants without any sign of embarrassment.

Dozens of ice spears penetrated the body precisely, avoiding only vital points.

The sharp pieces dug deep into the nerves that move the muscles, rendering them unable to move.

It doesn’t seem like it’s something that has been done before on humans, but it’s a skillful technique that feels like it’s from someone in the same industry.

A man who was watching her coolly trying to leave the place shouted out loud.

“Who do you belong to?” “What is the purpose?”

It certainly looked like the daughter of a noble family, but there was no monster inside.

“···Purpose?”

The blonde-haired girl with blue eyes spoke to them with a grin on her kind face that did not match her ignorant skills.

“I want to enjoy normal school life.”

As the girl said that, she turned her back on them and lightly walked away toward the academy.
