Rehabilitating the Villainess

Chapter 105: Difficult Choice (1)

The sound of the chain scraping the floor reached my ears. 

It meant that Clie, who had been unconscious, had finally woken up.

Hhngh, this is

Are you awake? Just how long did you stay unconscious with just one blow to the head?

A slight frown appeared on Clies face, but she quickly managed to erase that expression.

Seeing her lips twitch, I could tell that Clie was hiding her true feelings, she had no choice but to do it. 

At the moment, she was constrained with iron chains, and all sorts of magic tools. She was in a situation where she had to be polite even if she wanted to curse at me.

So things were as it should beexcept for the fact that, at the moment, Shael was standing by my side. 

For that reason, I couldnt harass Clie as I wished.

Shael, we should leave.

No. I have to do something

After that, Shael took something out from her magic pouch. It was something I had seen in the Holy Kingdom. While on our way to the Blessing Meeting, Shael had bought a lie detector.

It was just a magic tool meant for the purpose of having fun. Naturally, there was no way that such a thing would have the ability to detect other peoples lies. 

However, Shael showed the lie detector to Clie.

Whawhat is that?

This entire time, I was curious about why you poured wine on me back then

Was it not enough to slap her in the hospital room before? 

Now Shael was asking Clie with an annoyed expression on her face.

Eh..that was by mistake.

Creeb!

The moment Clie gave her reply, the red light on the lie detector magic tool turned on. It meant that Clies words were lies.

Taaashhhk!

Clies head turned to the side due to the force of Shaels sharp slap.

Even so, Shaels anger didnt seem to subside.

Come to think of it, it seems that Shael hates Clie more than I do.

Clie had spilled wine on Shaels favorite dress for no reason, and she even tried to ruin our relationship. Shael also knew that Clie was the source of the strange rumors about her running rampant throughout the empire. Furthermore, there were many other instances where Clie tired to harm her as well. So from Shaels point of view, Clie was her enemy.

Shael continued to ask, I heard you tried to do something strange to the Azbel family as well. Is that true?

Oh no..never!

Clie had no choice but to deny it. She would definitely suffer if the lie detector tool judged her claim to be a lie.

Ting!

And, the lie detector judged Clies words to be true. For Clie, it was quite fortunate.

Taaashk!

However, Clies head turned to the other side all the same.

The lie detector tool is broken.

.

What should I sayas expected of the villainess?

The villainesss ability to tease and harass opponents was excellent. To be honest, I was grateful to Shael for acting like a klutz only in front of me.

And so, similar sharp sounds continued to resound in the Baslett familys prison. I was able to leave the prison only after Shael felt hungry after a while.

But Shael didnt go to the dining area. She stood still and quietly grabbed my wrist.

What is it?

At the moment, Shael was bending her mouth as if she had something to say to me. 

Then I directed my gaze, which was on Shaels mouth, towards her hand. Because Shael was hiding something from me with her hands behind her back.

There are a lot of things that needs to be clarified. For example, this

Shael held out the thing she had been hiding. 

It was a something I recognizeda potion to be exact.

It was the potion that Rayel Tarden had given me in the past, saying that it would help with matters of love.

What is it?

What is it? Its a potion I stole from your pocket.

I thought I had lost it, but apparently it was taken by Shael. Honestly, I didnt want to use it, but still kept it with me thinking that it might be of use in some other matters.

Oh, then give it back

Clang!

The potion that fell from Shaels hand, then shattered and spilled on the floor.

I was dumbfounded by the incomprehensible situation, but I couldnt help but wake up to Shaels passionate gaze.

I heard its a potion that helps with matters of love.

I dont remember ever saying that.

In the first place, I had never taken out that potion in front of Shael. But then I remembered another thing.

You said that when you were drunk.

I cursed the me from the past for drinking the wine Shael had given me without question. Anyways, I stopped worrying over spilled milk, and silently waited for Shael to continue speaking.

You dont need anything like this.

I dont know what you mean.

So

Hmmm?

After clearing her throat several times, Shael continued to say, You dont have to use this for our love.

I was finally able to understand the meaning behind Shaels words. 

She had mistaken that I was trying to use the potion because I wanted her to love me. Therefore, she was conveying theres no need to use these things to get my love, dont worry, Ill give you enough love anyway.

Thats absurd

I was being scolded for something I didnt doand then she said such a thing with a trembling voice and bright red cheeks.

Honestly, it was a very Shael-like thing to do. But thats why I rather liked this situation quite a lot. 

And so, I took her in my embrace and continued to enjoy the moment.
