After choosing to leave, they regretted it.

"The third daughter of a baron, what's the difference between her and a commoner?"

Violet smiled softly:

"Indeed, you can't inherit property or territory, nor can you participate in family affairs. Apart from better living conditions, you only have an empty title of nobility."

Then, the conversation changed.

"But it doesn't matter. I don't care. What's more important is that Aize doesn't care either. So what if I'm a slave? The princess is so noble, but she didn't keep Aize here, did she?"

There was a parry and a critical hit, and Heidi almost bit her tongue.

The fake smile on her face quickly disappeared, and Heidi said through gritted teeth:

"So, you know very well the relationship between me and Aize?"

"Of course, he's told me everything. What can I say? Her Highness is truly pitiful."

Villian's words were a mockery, mocking Heidi for not realizing her mistake yet and continuing with her clownish behavior.

But Heidi didn't realize it.

Pitiful? What's pitiful? My own pity?

That's really pitiful.

Originally, all I had to do was be an ordinary member of the royal family, live an ordinary life of wealth, and then get married in an ordinary way, and my life would have passed by normally.

Unfortunately, his father, brother, and sister all died, and he was pushed to the front to hold on to the situation, and was finally stabbed in the back. If he had not been chosen to be a hero, he would have died two years ago.

Isn’t this pitiful?

It's so pitiful.

For Aize to say this about himself, doesn't it mean that he sympathizes with him and has a good impression of him?

That means that as long as I can deal with this woman, there is a great possibility of bringing Aize back.

Thinking of this, Heidi's mood suddenly improved a lot, and she even smiled a little inadvertently, which made Villian opposite her look nauseous and want to vomit.

The princess coughed dryly, then regained her composure and continued firing:

"So, you knew about my relationship with him, but you still wanted to steal my girl?!"

Let's put things in perspective. It's still disgusting that they did it knowingly.

Heidi had no good feelings towards these arrogant and barbaric imperial nobles, and now it seemed that she had to add another layer of dislike to it.

Facing the accusation, Villian just smiled lightly, slowly cut a piece of the cake she had just brought, and put it in her mouth to taste it.

"Hmm...it's not as good as that restaurant's...Did you misunderstand something, Princess? I never intended to steal your girl."

Because it's not "yours" in the first place - but saying that would be like undermining Aize's reputation, which is not good. There are some things that you shouldn't say on his behalf.

"What?"

"Aize is my savior. Without him, I don't know what I would be like now. So I provide him with the necessary assistance, simply to repay his kindness. After all..."

Villian put a cookie in her mouth, put away her smile, and looked at Heidi meaningfully:

"I'm not the kind of person who repays kindness with enmity after receiving help from others, or even thinks of turning the tables on the guests~"

These words were like a slap in Heidi's face.

Unfortunately, it's of no use.

Heidi just snorted softly, without breaking her defense or expressing anything, and she didn't even realize that she was being talked about.

After all, how could I be considered ungrateful?

Didn’t you give Aize the title of fiancé?

No matter how low a princess' status is, she is still a princess, and her fiancé is the prince consort of the royal family. How many people dream of this title but cannot get it.

Not to mention that Aize was just a civilian before.

As for taking over the role, there is no question of that happening.

It's only natural for my fiancé to help me deal with some minor problems, so how can I become the host?

This made Villian sigh.

I overestimated the other person's moral level and mental state.

Heidi looked around and saw that no one was paying attention. She slammed the table angrily.

"You don't want to steal my girl? Then why are you still touching him? How dare you have any inappropriate thoughts about him?!"

“Oh, this one does exist.”

"……what?"

The sudden admission made Heidi feel helpless.

"Of course I have some inappropriate thoughts. Even if we put aside the fact that he saved me, his face, which looks unremarkable at first glance but is actually quite handsome and even a little cute when you look closely, is a perfect hit in my heart. I really want to pin him to the bed and fuck him hard until he loses consciousness—"

"..."

Heidi's brain was a little off.

After all, he comes from a royal family with strict upbringing and cannot stand these worldly things.

Villian, who had been inexplicably emotional, suddenly became depressed again, and began to complain with a frown:

"That guy too, I should be quite attractive, right? Why didn't you do anything last night? I even changed my clothes and waited the whole night, but in the end, all you did was sleep—"

Thinking that he might not like this type, Villian specially added special functions and optional sensory communication when making those maid puppets.

However, Aize still had no interest.

This made Miss Witch a little depressed.

"Uh, well... this..."

Seeing the other person suddenly fall ill and suddenly become depressed, Heidi didn't know what to say for a moment.

Is this...a topic that should be brought up during conversations among the nobility?

shameless.

Besides, this sounds like a wife who's entering a cold period complaining about her husband!?

No, like a ghost!

I am the wife...the future wife!!!

Heidi stood up angrily:

"Isn't it obvious that you want to get promoted?!"

Upon hearing this, Violet said solemnly:

"To a higher position? No, please don't insult me with such calculations. I simply want to stay by his side and lust after his body. The title is not important. If Aize is willing, I can be his pet~"

Cold sweat ran down Heidi's cheeks.

Chapter 31 Or You Die

Heidi's career as a hero lasted only two years, but since the royal family suffered a heavy blow and she took on the responsibility, a full six years have passed.

During these six years, Heidi has become quite knowledgeable.

But now she had to admit that the weird woman in front of her was a little out of line.

Or rather, there is something wrong with his brain.

At first, I thought I could scare her away by relying on my absolute advantage in status, but now it seems impossible.

She sighed softly, ignoring Villian's crazy expressions and put away her fake smile.

"No matter what I say, you won't leave Aize, is that what you mean?"

"Unless Aize tells me to leave."

"Or you die."

Such a casual remark was as deafening as thunder, and the temperature around them seemed to drop several degrees in an instant.

Then there was silence.

Silent stare.

A full half minute passed like this.

Villian snorted, the corners of her mouth slightly raised, and she looked directly into Heidi's eyes without fear.

"You can try, but don't fail again this time~"

There was even a hint of contempt in his words.

"Again?"

Heidi still hadn't realized Villian's true identity, and frowned in confusion.

"What do you mean……"

"What do you mean?!"

Before he could finish his words, a noisy sound suddenly resounded throughout the banquet hall. In an instant, all eyes were cast in that direction, including Heidi and Violet.

Aize didn't know when he returned to the hall, and in his hurry he bumped into another guest.

The person he bumped into was a slightly overweight middle-aged man wearing a white suit.

The strange cry came from him, because he was splashed with the inky liquid in Aize's hand. At this moment, he tried to wipe it off with a handkerchief with a look of disgust, but it only spread further.

Aize was like a little kid who had made a mistake, almost curling up into a ball and apologizing continuously.

"Sorry, sorry, it was a task assigned by the Viscount, and I was a little too anxious—"

This middle-aged man was none other than Roderick, the president of the Adventurer's Guild of Tafia.

When he was young, he was also a very powerful adventurer. After retiring due to injury, he relied on various means to curry favor with his superiors and eventually sat in the position he has today.

Because of his background, he has little education and is rather rude in his speech and actions.

At this moment, he didn't care about the others present, nor did he care about Aize's status as a guest. He pointed and yelled at him:

"You're so clumsy! I had this suit custom-made. Do you know how expensive it is? How are you going to compensate me for messing it up like this?"

"sorry Sorry……"

"Even someone as dumb as you can work for the Viscount. Is there no one left in Tafia?"

The guests were talking around.

It is indeed wrong to dirty someone's clothes, but you should apologize and compensate as much as you can. After all, this is a social occasion, and shouting like that is really inappropriate.

However, this guild leader, relying on his important position and the support of the guild's top brass, has never taken these so-called respectable people seriously.

Seeing the discussions around him, he became even more excited.

"You said you were working for the Viscount, so I have nothing to say to you. Let the Viscount give me an explanation!"

"sorry Sorry sorry……"

Aize looked like he was about to cry, but he just kept bowing and apologizing.

If Villian hadn't known that Aize was acting to trick people, she really wanted to cut that fat guy into pieces right now.

"Cough-cough-"

A crisp dry cough was heard, and the crowd spontaneously made way. Sheen, the host of the party, appeared at the door of the venue, walked to the side of the president, and bowed politely.

"I'm very sorry, President Roderick. I will compensate you in full for the loss of your clothes."

Roderick raised his face arrogantly:

"That's more like it. Where did you find this servant? Why don't you educate him properly?"

"Mr. Ain is not a servant. Like you, he is a guest at this party and a friend of mine. This problem arose because I asked him for help. Please don't blame him."

"Hmph—Your Excellency the Viscount, you…"
