The Baddest Villainess Is Back - Chapter 139
Chaaeng-!
At the sound of metal, Roxelyn, who had been thrown to the ground, looked up while sitting.
“Ah….”
“What are you scoundrels doing?!”
The boy fiercely charged at the much larger adults.
“….”
Roxelyn widened her eyes as she watched Arma move so quickly that he was almost invisible.
He had the skill to kill even these assassins.
‘…I didn’t know he was this strong.’
Still, the fact that he wasn’t hiding his abilities showed that he hadn’t started living under a mask yet.
Arma swiftly took down the assassins in front of him.
Roxelyn, who had been watching the fight, stood up and dusted off the dirt on her clothes.
It was then that one of the supposedly dead assassins picked up a fallen sword and charged at Arma.
‘Oh, he’s going to die.’
Knowing that he wouldn’t die didn’t stop her from thinking that, and in that moment, Roxelyn was already running.
Thud-!
She roughly pushed the boy aside, and at the same time…
Thunk.
The assassin’s sword, aimed at Arma, stabbed into Roxelyn’s side.
‘Ah, it hurts.’
She grimaced at the sharp pain.
‘So this is Arma’s trauma.’
If it weren’t for Roxelyn, Arma would have been severely injured.
While she and Arma rolled on the ground, Arma threw his sword like a spear, piercing the assassin’s head.
Splat!
It sounded like a watermelon bursting.
‘Will this erase his trauma? I hope so.’
The second prince, Yuldian, had once said that Arma developed trauma from an assassination attempt and couldn’t hold a sword or leave his room for a while.
‘Let’s consider this paying back the debt for helping me escape.’
So this time, she hoped they could go their separate ways without any masks.
“…Lady Roxelyn?”
A trembling voice was heard.
“Yes… it’s fine… find a good woman…”
I’ll be okay, so please let me go. She tried to say, but the burning pain in her side stopped her from finishing the sentence.
“Call a doctor! Is anyone there?!”
Roxelyn, holding her burning side, slowly closed her eyes.
‘Luckily, it seems like a graze, so I shouldn’t die, right?’
She was worried because of her inherently weak body.
‘If I die, Father will dig himself a hole.’
Thinking of his gloomy and dark face, she tried to stay conscious, but her vision quickly darkened.
“Young Lady! Lady Bellion! Roxelyn!”
A voice screamed.
‘So you can make such a sound.’
That was her last memory.
* * *
“Huff…!”
Feeling like she could breathe again, she clutched her side and sat up abruptly.
At the same time, a loud gasp and a scream echoed right next to her.
“Roxelyn!”
Turning her head, she saw Zerti, looking gaunt as if he hadn’t slept for ten days, staring at her.
‘Ah… he’s gloomy again.’
Seeing her father, who had become dark and somber again, Roxelyn sighed.
She thought it was understandable since the last event had been her kidnapping.
* * *
“…Roxelyn.”
“Yes.”
“…I’m sorry.”
“It’s okay. …Although I feel like I’ve said this a hundred times already, I’ll say it again. I’m okay.”
She was seventeen again and had returned to another world.
And a day had passed.
Zerti wouldn’t leave Roxelyn’s side, and her grandfather and uncles were showing up three times a day.
Knock, knock.
The door burst open along with a knock.
“Granddaughter, are you alright?”
Correction.
They were showing up four times a day.
“Yes, as you can see, I’m fine.”
“It could be that the internal injuries are more serious than they appear, so be careful.”
Why would there be internal injuries when she hadn’t even fought?
Roxelyn had just been kidnapped, provoked the person she was talking to, and then fainted.
“The fact that you were unconscious for a month means something was wrong.”
Roxelyn silently kept her mouth shut.
‘I never imagined I’d be unconscious for a whole month.’
She couldn’t believe the news that a month had passed when she regained consciousness.
And during that month, Roxelyn had been in her body in the past of another world.
One month.
She had spent a month over there.
And a month had passed here too.
The periods matched exactly.
