The Baddest Villainess Is Back - Chapter 70
The suddenly subdued atmosphere made Roxelyn a bit flustered as she shifted her gaze.
‘Is it a criminal’s name? Or is it a name that doesn’t exist here?’
If that was the case, it would be a problem. Roxelyn held her breath and cautiously observed.
“What did you just say?”
The Khan asked with an incredulous, stern face.
“It is… Sansar.”
“Do you remember what he looked like?”
Roxelyn hesitated and then tilted her head.
Feeling uncomfortably odd, she wondered if she should issue another warning but decided it was overstepping and simply shrugged before explaining.
“Um… he had silver hair with big waves down to his waist, green eyes. He’s a beautiful…”
Roxelyn rubbed her cheek with the back of her hand before continuing.
“…man.”
“……”
Silence enveloped the surroundings.
“What? Did you say something weird again?”
Yuldian, feeling the same, frowned and confronted her.
Roxelyn just shrugged and didn’t respond.
“Was there no other distinguishing feature?”
“Well… other than that, he had traits almost identical to the Kaluta people…”
She murmured softly, then let out a low exclamation.
“Ah, it seems like his eye color would change occasionally. When looking up at the sky or lost in thought…?”
Roxelyn recalled the mysterious Kaluta person from her memories.
He always had an enigmatic aura, a person who reassured her despite their brief encounter.
Roxelyn had simply shared the bread she had with him when he was clutching his hungry stomach and collapsing…
Despite his light demeanor and way of speaking, he was someone incredibly comforting, enough for her to allow him to stay until he found a place to go.
Reflecting on it now, it was a peculiar situation. Regardless of the circumstances, he was a man, and she was a woman living alone.
“If you’ve learned Lutan to that extent, you must have spent quite some time together…”
Roxelyn, pulling herself out of her reverie, looked at the man again and answered.
“I can tell you more about my friend, but before that, I would appreciate it if you could be as honest with me as I have been with you, Khan.”
“…What are you talking about now?”
The man frowned in displeasure, but Roxelyn smiled at him. It occurred to her during their conversation.
Something that Sansar, her friend from long ago, had said.
“Ah, there’s a fascinating secret hidden in Kaluta, want me to tell you?”
“A fascinating secret?”
“Yes, the Khan of Kaluta is…”
For some reason, she couldn’t quite remember the voice of the person who had told her this as Roxelyn slowly moved her lips.
“If you want to hear more, please bring me the real Khan.”
“…What are you talking about?”
The man asked, wrinkling his face in confusion.
“Only a woman can hold that position.”
Roxelyn’s lips curved into a smile.
“The Khan of Kaluta can only be a woman, right, Deputy Chief?”
As soon as Roxelyn finished her sentence, the area was enveloped in silence. The man across from her, who had been quietly observing her, snapped his fingers.
Simultaneously, the figures standing behind him, as if guarding him, disappeared from view.
“What’s… what are you doing…!”
The Kaluta people obstructed the view of the other two.
“What’s going on here?”
Roxelyn turned her head in surprise at the cold voice. Arma was looking at the man with a sterner face than usual.
More precisely, he was looking at the beautiful woman behind the man who seemed to be a dancer.
“It seems one person leaving is enough.”
And that one man himself flapped his lips.
“Ah! Hey, what are you doing?! Do you know who I am?! I am from the Diyanitas Empire…!!”
Yuldian was dragged away. The man stood up, and the seductive woman took his place, leaning casually on the table, resting her chin in her palm.
“Aha, you’re quite bold. How did you know?”
A striking woman with her red hair tied in a ponytail smiled as she asked.
