Chapter 2 Can I Be Rude To The Villain?

A week ago, on a cold winters afternoon, just days before her wedding to Kalis Haneton. She was sitting in her room, dozing off and dreaming. Suddenly Seria, the empires greatest maniac villain, screamed.

So? I wanted to have you!

The voice, filled with anger, was already unlike the bearing of a noble. Envy, jealousy, angerSerias hands were already stained with blood.

Lina, Lina!

Lina, the Saint. From the moment she descended, she took the attention of everyone that Seria wanted. She was so loved. Seria was terribly hateful for Lina, who gave her a feeling of unbearable defeat.

What about Lina? The only thing I couldnt do was to split her throat and throw her in the lake!

A sharp knife split Serias throat. Red blood flooded. Lina couldnt look at the scene any more and she closed her eyes tightly.

Ugh!

Seria opened her eyes with fright. Her body trembled. A scene from the original story that came to her mind when she thought that she had already forgotten about it.

My Lady, Was it another dream?It was scary. Life was scary. After waking up as the villainess Seria, she often dreamt of dying according to the original script. Well, anyone would. If you find out that this is actually a novel and that you are going to die brutally because you are a villain, you will have no choice but to suffer nightmares. Moreover, with Linas appearance, the original plot began.

She grabbed a thick shawl and wrapped it around her shoulders. She looked out the large window and a desolate winter garden caught her eyes. Suddenly, she felt a little strange when she remembered that Kalis took off his jacket to cover Linas shoulders over there earlier. However, she doesnt have time to feel uncomfortable, and the reason was laughable.

Lady Seria! You are here!

Whats going on ?

The maid who served her sprang to her feet.

Designer Begonia is here!

Begonia? Already?

Yes !

She got up from the couch in a panic. Begonia was currently the most popular designer in the Glick Empire, even though it was less than three years after her debut. The reason Begonia was so popular was not only because of her skill, but also due to her grandmother being a princess. In other words, she had royal blood. It was only a matter of time before the bread was made, as the noble veins were well equipped. In order to request a dress from designer Begonia, one had to have money as well as status. It was her fiance, Kalis Haneton, who asked Begonia for a wedding dress and a suit.

Come to think of it, in the original story, Lina also wanted a dress made by Begonia.

Anyway, as she thought she shouldnt make people wait, she ran. While running, she honestly admired Serias graceful steps as she would never be able to have that grace. Even after arriving, she couldnt simply open the door and enter.

After all, as a successor of royal blood, Begonia placed a great importance on the noble appearance. Otherwise, she thought it would not match her clothes. Seria quickly checked her face with the hand mirror the maid gave her. Perfect hair. No disheveled parts.

Lady! Oh, you are the prettiest again today.

She laughed at the maids clumsy praise. Well, it was not wrong. Although Seria was a crazy villain, her beauty was also undeniable. She coughed and went in as the maid opened the door. She entered in a dignified manner, although she would probably still be judged by Begonia.

***

Inside, there was designer Begonia, and Lina, the original heroine. Seria was embarrassed for a moment, but Begonia gave a noble smile to her.

Designer Begonia. Am I late?

No. I arrived early.

Begonia laughed and replied so, but Seria could tell the hidden meaning. You dont look good, was what Begonia wanted to say to her. She was able to read other peoples faces well, but it was a years result of her struggle to survive. She didnt want to go against the male lead or the second male lead, so she learned to read their expressions and lay low. Now she could grasp peoples emotions easily, and that was her key to survival. It all depends on whether the expressions were good or bad.As Seria was getting a little sad, a hand suddenly grabbed her chin. Her eyes became wide open in surprise.

Wow, Kalis fiance.

Linas eyes glistened with a smile. Then she suddenly grabbed Serias hand.

No, rather.

***

Did Kalis give Lina permission to call him by his name already? It took Seria 11 months to get permission to call his name. As expected, where does the blood of the second male leads go? Lina spoke with a twinkle in her eyes.

Im Lina. Its an embarrassing title but they call me a Saint..

There was no one in this empire, or even the entire continent, who didnt know Lina was a Saint. Seria gently pushed Linas hand away and said.

Of course I know, Saint Lady.

Lina looked around the living room without worrying about it.

I heard you are tailoring your wedding dress today! Is that right?

Thats right.

Oh my gosh! A wedding dress from another world! I was really curious if anyone wears wedding dresses here!

Said Lina, whose eyes lit up.

Can I see it with you?

See it together?

It was a strange request. First of all, a wedding dress wasnt supposed to be seen by anyone but close family members or close friends, and Lina wasnt in any of those categories. However, before Seria could speak, Begonia opened her mouth first.

Saint, Im sorry, but trying on a wedding dress is not a spectacle.

Ugh.

Lina was surprised and immediately folded her hands together. However, she was not as tactless as in the original story.

Sorry. I didnt mean that. Because I dont know this world very well

Indeed, Lina was a God-sent Saint. Begonia was reminded of that, and spoke with a gentle smile.

Of course. But, can you go out for a moment?

What? But

I cant work if there is an outsider here, I hope Saint Lady understands.

Alright

Lina went out with a look of despair. She looked back several times with a lingering look on her face, but Begonia was firm. She even muttered softly as Lina closed the door and left.

She doesnt have dignity.

At the moment, Seria remembered the original story she had read in her previous life. Designer Begonia was a woman with great pride that she inherited the royal blood. In a way, she was arrogant.

Once in the story, Begonia politely declined Marquis Kalis Hanetons request, who came to ask for a dress as a present for Lina.

Saint Lady is beautiful. However, she doesnt have the dignity I wanted. I cant make a dress without inspiration.

So, in the original story, Lina saw Begonias dress, and fell in love at first glance. But she became very sad when she heard that statement. Eventually, Kalis was angered enough to put pressure on Begonias store from behind the shadows. He was the biggest importer of silk after all. In the end, Begonia stepped back and surrendered.

So Begonia turned out as a designer who also became a villain. However, no villain could match Seria Stern. The original story with its plot twist was a delightful development, but since Seria was reborn as the villain, only tears flowed.

How! Lady Seria, this shade of white is the best match for your eyes! This part and this part should stitch to the back.

Begonias face instantly brightened as Seria came out after she put on the wedding dress. She was satisfied.

Congratulations on your marriage to Marquis Kalis Haneton, Lady Seria.

Thank you. Your dress is the most beautiful dress Ive ever seen.

Oh my goodness. Ahaha!

Now, there was no way Kalis would be presenting a dress to Lina. It was fortunate that Begonia, who was a little pompous, didnt have to go through an ordeal with her. Seria also really liked the wedding dress made by Begonia.

***

Seria!

She raised her head in surprise when the bedroom door flung open.

Kalis?

The tall man strode in. Kalis turned to the wedding dress that was hanging on her bedroom mannequin, and tilted his head.

Is this the wedding dress?

Yes.

He looked closely at her dress as if something was wrong. Seria wondered what he didnt like about it.

Whats wrong?

No. Its a little too.. Kalis hesitated and spoke. Im afraid I cant have my fiance wear something like this.

What?

The color is a bit dull, and there is too little jewelry.

But designer Begonia said thats the trend these days.

Huh?

Kaliss expression instantly changed. But soon he spoke with a warm smile.

Seria, you are not just a noblewoman. Youre a Stern. So I want to give you the most perfect wedding dress.

They were sweet words at first glance. But she was a villain who had been accompanying the second male lead for a year, she could tell the difference just by looking at his expression. And currently, Kalis was in a bad mood. But she didnt care and asked bluntly.

Kalis. You dont like the dress?

You really cant be fooled.

Then Ill talk to Begonia again. Even though she is a busy person, she has a clear sense of responsibility for her work.The wedding was just a few days away after all. However, Kalis stopped her from calling Begonia.

Apart from Begonia, what about other designers?

Not Begonia?

What kind of nonsense was this? Perhaps he knew that she was reading his expression, Kalis looked a little stiff. As Seria urged him, he sighed and answered.

No matter how much I think about it, I dont like my precious bride wearing such a vainful designers dress.Vainful?

Yes.

The moment Seria hears his words, a bad feeling arised. But, she hoped it was not as what she thought.

Are you doing this because of Saint Lina?
