I Am The Last Villainess He Has To Kill

Chapter 22: A Drug-Selling Mansion

Chapter 22 – A Drug-Selling Mansion

After Kiehl and Bella made an oath, the members of the mansion were able to put their worries to rest.

For whatever reason, he had a good time with a bright face as before.

"Phew… what a relief, I don't have to tell her!"

"Aish, I've caught a rabbit."

The swordsmanship class opened by Bella was doing a good job of ‘filial piety' in many ways.

Kiehl covered the day at first, and then started hanging out with his friends pretty well. They don’t know if he picks only the kids Bella’s interested in and makes friends with them.

‘After all, Kiehl also has good eyes.'

He didn't like it when those friends asked questions like, ‘Do you like Bwen?' or ‘What kind of man do you want to marry?'

She used to be more sympathetic because most of the children were either enthusiastic or came against their parents' opposition.

Perhaps Kiehl knew it, too, or he seemed to be giving them the love he had received, and he used to smile with pride.

Bella thought, ‘The empire you will rule will be happy.'

She thanked Kiehl for growing into a warm person.

In addition, this classroom served as a bridge of fortune that made the mansion's finances even more prosperous. As the swordsmanship class became famous in the village, and rumors spread in the neighboring city, there was a mercenary group that showed interest.

Bella tried to meet the shareholders of the city's caravan through the mercenary group. It was the first time she had hosted the guests in the parlor of her mansion.

"Hey, you're doing a great job."

"Good… thing."

At first, they thought she was a gangster because the business owner said something like a bully.

"The children's parents bought a lot of weapons from our business."

"Oh, right?"

"Thanks to this town, we don't have to worry about security in the future."

Bella nodded her head leisurely.

The merchant’s head was a little surprised at the lecture of the little girl in front of him, and he pondered for a long time before asking.

"I don't think you're of a noble family. May I ask how you live in a mansion like this?"

“I bought it because it was cheap because it was called a ghost house.”

At that, the merchant’s head stopped drinking tea in response to an unexpected answer.

"The ghost has been exterminated, so you don't have to worry."

“Ha… Haha. Isn’t that kind of scary?”

The merchant’s head was a person who had quite a bit of business aptitude. He glanced around the parlor and said cautiously, whether even in his eyes there seemed to be a lot of furniture needed for this mansion.

“Well, you are very frugal.”

It seemed that if he did well, he could sell a lot of things to this wealthy and ignorant person.

Bella nodded in response to his words. "I don't like being frugal. There's not much to live in a country like this."

"Aha, I guess it is…”

"No chance to sell."

She took out the potion made by Iwer and showed it to the merchant’s head.

"Life's history, without love, wouldn't it be so barren and sad?"

“…What is this?"

"I'm good at making potions, so would you like to sell love potions at a high price?"

"Lo… love potion?"

Unlike the merchant head, who was surprised, Bella calmly responded with a smile.

***

Soon, Pur became a master of house chores.

"Lady, my clothes are torn again."

But, she's so active, except for tearing her clothes once a week. Each time Bella raised one corner of her lips, she calmly bought her new clothes.

‘Okay. It's a bear, but it's better than tearing people apart.'

Moreover, although it is a bear, it looks more like a teddy bear, so it seems that Kiehl is more comfortable with Pur than other people.

Sometimes, seeing him sleeping on Pur’s fluffy fur made her envious.

Iwer was Bella's favorite after Jenkins.

She was worried about her being a dream demon, though she didn’t cross that line anymore. Besides, Iwer's cuisine was truly fantastic.

It's not an exaggeration to say that it attracts people with this. She also served exotic foods that she had never heard of before.

"Iwer, where did you learn this kind of food?"

"That’s drinking and dancing with all men from around the world."

"Okay, I get it."

In the meantime, there were flavors similar to what Bella had eaten in her previous life—something like curry or bulgogi.

And, when she explained that sometimes she wanted to eat spicy food, Iwer would make it similar.

"Ta-da! Today, as the lady said, I made budaejjigae once!"

"Wow… it's really the same."

Every time something went into her mouth, Iwer overtook Jenkins to become Bella's number one.

"Cooking is another temptation. Cooking is basic for a dream demon."

Except for this old-fashioned statement.

"But, as expected, the most delicious thing is me…"

"Shut up."

Occasionally, except for a few words that went too far. Jenkins, as always, never failed Bella's expectations.

"I can't even deceive the bloodline."

"Why?"

"Young master is really smart. In the past, it took a month to get a book done, but now it's a full moon or a week."

"Really?"

Besides, not to mention Kiehl, who followed Jenkins' education well. She was getting daily reports, though every time he did, he was praised.

Bella's 4th place Zanbar also worked pretty hard, and it was changed to 3.5th place. Surprisingly, he got along well with the village children.

‘Honestly, it seems like he’s satisfied with just watching a mukbang…’

When he rested on the roof after his workday, she sometimes listened to Zanbar's grievances.

"I really want to eat them. Those delicious guys."

"Yeah, when you go back to the Demon Realm, eat it all."

"I don't know how the others hold up."

"Hmm…”

"I can't even deceive the bloodline."

Bella was also unfamiliar with Zanbar, who suddenly spoke seriously.

“I’m different from a bear that eats salmon or a mongoose that sucks spirits, from the first place.”

"Is that so? Come to think of it, Jenkins didn’t make a mistake and said that bloodline can’t be deceived.”

“….”

“The two of you couldn’t eat it, so you were anxious, and in this respect, it seems a bit similar.”

At that, Zanbar vehemently denied as his face turned red.

“Simi…similar, with that half demon?!”

He occasionally makes a big fuss when talking about Jenkins, but each time Bella feels strange. It's as if she had made a slip of the tongue.

"No, I was just saying, why are you making such a fuss?"

"Why wouldn’t I?"

It was then that Iwer whined up on the roof and lay down on Bella's side.

"Why?"

"The Princess is not keen on this kind of thing."

"This thing?"

"Sir Zanbar and Jenkins a long time ago… Kek."

Before Iwer could finish speaking, Zanbar turned into a leopard and pressed his foot on Iwer's neck.

"A long time ago? Zanbar, move your feet."

Even though Bella tried to lift his foot, he was immovable.

"Let go… She can't say that anyway.”

"Yeah, not the type to beat around the bush."

Jenkins and Kiehl, who were practicing swordsmanship below, looked up to see as it was quite noisy for the three of them to tangle together on the roof.

"What if they fall over there?"

"They’re stronger than the young master, so don't worry about that."

Kiehl refocused, and as Jenkins put together a few more, there was a loud ‘thump.' Astonished, they looked to the side, and, apparently, they fell off the roof and had quite a bit of fun.

"I'll kill you, Ewer."

"Kyaak! Save me, Miss!"

"Why, what? If you’re going to die, talk and then die!"

Zanbar captures Iwer, Bella captures him, and if Iwer runs away again in the meantime, he goes to catch her.

Needless to say, in an instant, the garden was a mess with three people running around…

"Always, demons…"

"Are all the animal kingdoms that strong?”

Jenkins bit his mouth. Does the animal kingdom really exist?

"Well, that's right."

"I'm not an animal, can I be that strong?"

"I’m not as good, but I can beat them. It takes strategy."

Jenkins picked up his sword again and tapped Kiehl’s sword.

"Effort never betrays."

Kiehl faced Jenkins. "Shall we go again?"

"Hmm."

At this point, Jenkins could feel the atmosphere of a young monarch in Kiehl amber eyes.

***

And her business, which started in the spring, hit a jackpot by the time winter came.

“I could use a little more money.”

At first, she had earned about two hundred silver, but it jumped tenfold and started selling two gold a bottle. It's rather impressive.

“Is there anyone who can buy it even with such a price?”

"A lot. It doesn't matter if it's commoners like us, but there are no nobles who will not spare money, so they can't buy it."

Thanks to that, the small pieces of furniture in her mansion started to change one by one. Bella remembered visiting Psilia's mansion, and she sometimes smiled strangely.

"Pur, I mean…”

"Yes?"

"There are times in life when things get better all of a sudden? It's not a big deal, but there are times when it's a series of good things. I think now is the time."

“How many years have you been living here?”

And, Bella would sometimes send the things she really liked to the demon realm.

Even if she can't use it right away, if she returns to the Demon Realm someday, she wants to maintain her current life.

"I'm going to go out of town soon and look for a mint-colored chair."

In her previous life, she was more frugal than she thought. However, being here, she was becoming quite a shopping maniac.

Even though it was just the blink of an eye, it was enough time to know the taste of money.

***

It's been two years since Kiehl received the sword.

During the time, he began to show extraordinary talent in swordsmanship. Even with his small stature, he skillfully wielded his sword.

Bella thought as she watched Kiehl fight with Jenkins in the garden.

‘The setting of being good at swordsmanship must be such a crazy setting.'

When Jenkins always said, ‘Young Master’s not that soft-hearted,' she heard it in one ear and forgot it.

She only thought he was young because of his small body compared to his peers. Although Kiehl quickly got up even if he fell, and challenged Jenkins again.

‘He’s also persistent.'

Maybe that's why Jenkins didn't hate fighting with him even though he seemed to be grumbling about it at the same time.

‘Is it time to step up now?’

As Bella watched the scene quietly, she turned to speak to Jenkins.

"Jenkins. If you play with a sword like that, your skills won't improve."
