The Villainess Comes Back in Time to Find the One Who Truly Loved Her One Week Before Dying

"That's unacceptable. I'm sorry."

Thank you, Mason. You went out of your way to talk to me in advance. The official client is your father, so I guess he also had the hand to take the story directly to your father. I love that you always take full account of my feelings that way.

... but not the ones that don't.

"... No, um, I'm not saying I won't renew my contract. There, you understand... right?

"Of course it is. For a few months, I wanted to embark on a training journey to rebuild my sense of action, and the next contract was to sign it again after I got back from the journey, right?

"... Yes, it is"

"Yes, so that's unacceptable. I'm sorry."

……

It's almost a year since Mason came to our mansion. Everything is going well so far.

My magic and swordsmanship are both improving well every day. Eileen seems to be more amazing and has grown into a level swordsman who can already afford to do it, both adventurers and knights. He doesn't seem to care about it at all.

There hasn't been much talk of a troublesome engagement lately either. I use it repeatedly: "I don't want marriages that are determined solely by patriarchal or identity matches. I also want to marry someone who decides this person is good on his own, with due regard for his abilities and personality. But I'm not sure I have eyes for people because I'm just a kid. That's probably why it was better to say no rationally.

And above all, I can't help but have fun and fun every day with Mason anymore. As your sister advised, I tried to incorporate the Jandere Taste stuff into my daily approach.

I don't know if that was a good idea, or if it was just the result of a continual push from the time we met, but he became seriously suited to my thoughts.

Honest he has persuaded me to give up because he did not deserve me, although in a way he acted as expected.

I was pretty upset because I just didn't expect you to put in an immediate no when I thought you'd finally come to terms with your thoughts. But I managed to get back to him safely.

I guess I should have just mentioned the desire to conquer and all the abusive hearts. They might have pulled me off a bit. Of course, I'll do whatever it takes if he actually tells me to kneel down and beg. That's not the problem, is it?

"Didn't you really want to kneel down and beg him more? 'Cause some of you might think,' cause I'm not a dm like that. In front of Mason, I might be just a little bit into M, but the basics are normal.... maybe.

... I don't care if I'm a dm. Aside from the good story, I don't know, I'm so glad to hear from Mason these days that it's easy for him to tell what he doesn't hate about me.

It blushes in my approach, it gets tattered. "It's working, it's working, it's cute" and I stick to it.

I, maybe I had the qualities of a witchcraft woman. He probably likes me a lot already, but I honestly enjoy watching him get bored without being able to get his hands on me, worrying about his age and identity and all that crap. When will it work for me? I can always, you know, feel like a hoax?

... because in my last life I only had a week to be with him. I couldn't afford the time to enjoy the "rush of love" thing. Of course, the passionate, instant memories of love that he made at the end of his previous life, burning violently, are a treasure of my life, though.

But now it's not like it was in my previous life. I won't be forced to leave him in a week. I have a lot of time right now.

So I want to take my time from now on, and that's how much you like me so much that you can't live without me, and spend the rest of your life loving each other plenty. So I'll wait three, five or ten years, me.

Because as long as you stay in our mansion and I keep a close watch, there's little risk of someone taking him.

So to speak, he's a beautiful butterfly that hung on the spider's nest I made. It is certain that one day he will fall to me, so I wish I could fully enjoy the now-new, sweet-and-sour relationship and his adorable appearance that afflicts me.

... is that it? I've always thought I was either M, but surprisingly, can I also go S? Not just the future I call your husband about Mason, but the future I make Mason call me Queen?

"Lady? You'll call it different, you butterfly! (Bassi!)" You mean?... No, I don't. I'm not serious. Let's erase this delusion from memory now.

... I was too paranoid to get back to business, but I've offered to embark on a journey to regain a sense of action for a few months before Mason renews his contract to see if his troubles have reached their limit. Well, I'm sure it's true that you're worried about a diminished sense of action.

But you can't admit it. You can't admit it.

What if my feelings for me have calmed down because of all the excitement I've had in those months? What if I became fond of other women I met on the trip?... on a trip, in case he meets an ex-girlfriend he was dating in his previous life?

"… as I explained before, in the not-too-distant future, I could have a crisis in my life"

"... Yes"

"Unfortunately, I didn't see until exactly when that was… but if that happens, it's probably just Mason who can save my life"

"Yes, you were. … However, I've always wondered, if in my dreams I was saving your daughter's life, wouldn't that mean that I'm destined to be by your side in any case when my daughter's life is at stake?"

……

Ugh... I wasn't thinking that far. You're absolutely right. That's my husband (tentative), and clear brains. I'm so bored... I knew you wouldn't lie...

"Sure they won't... but I'm scared, I'm anxious. I can't feel safe without Mason around me."

"... Really?"

Wow... I've been painted a lie... What should I do? I'm losing it.

... Honestly, it was on the road to the convent that my life was in imminent danger, so unless I took the same route to St. Andrews at the same time, you wouldn't be imminent... Besides, it was when I was 18.

Of course, it's true that you can't feel safe without Mason around you, can you? "I can't feel safe" in the sense that other women, especially their ex-girlfriends of previous life, would take him...

... Never bring up "dreams" stories from yourself anymore. I'm going to be crushed by the guilt of lying to someone I love.... I'm so sorry.

… yes. I came up with a good thing.

"… but I agree with Mason that it is necessary to refine the sense of action"

"... uh, so?

"Please take me with you"

……

Mason looked surprised for a moment before somehow holding his head.

◇◆◇◆◇◆◇◆◇◆◇◆

It worked. I am happy with my parents who are sweet to my daughter but also trust me at the same time. Thank you, Father, Mother. I'll be totally watered down already about my previous life.

What happened in the end? Mason's contract was renewed without a blank period. Besides, through my strong claim. Now it wasn't a one-year contract, it was about a two-year contract period until I enrolled in the School of Magic.

All right, now we can keep him connected to me and stop him until he's enrolled in the School of Magic. You did it! Now we win!

The matter of his journey to rebuild his sense of action did not take the form of a "journey," but in the future his admission to take a day trip from the Guild of Rosedale Reinhardt or a quest for a demonic crusade as far back as he could go within a few days. It is a side business permit, so to speak.

Glad to hear that me and Irene were also allowed to accompany him to gain real-life experience. I tried to tell him no, and he gave me permission.

My strength now would not pose a danger to me unless I went hunting for such a mighty demon, all the more so if Mason and Irene were to accompany me, and I could normally be forgiven. It was rather welcomed that gaining real-life experience from a young age was a good thing.

Exactly. My initial suggestion that Mason and I go on a training journey for a few months was unacceptable, but I don't expect that from the start there. It was enough to stop Mason from embarking on his journey alone. Now you can accompany the Quest!

Nevertheless, it seems that your father and mother value my magical prowess more than I think. I'm a little anxious about how far my magic works because I've never used it in action myself.... Yeah, you're in action training to dispel that anxiety! Let's do our best.

So Chelsea Rosedale and Irene Cathcart both officially registered as adventurers at the Adventurers Guild in the Rosedale Reinhardt metropolitan area! Pussy, pussy...

... Yes, this was the moment of the birth of a legendary threesome party that would later be a dragon slayer... Definitely not, but I could be an adventurer sooner than I thought. Besides, I didn't think you'd be registering as an adventurer as a Duke's warrant lady.

... It's been a little noisy, especially since I signed up with my real name without thinking about it.

I wonder if the Duke's Lady is that rare to register as an adventurer. I heard the Duchess of Reinhardt used to be an adventurer when she was young, too. Wasn't she such a leading nobleman before marriage? I forgot. I'm sorry to disturb you in any case.

And tomorrow, Mason and I, Eileen and I are finally going on our first demonic crusade. It is the first battle. I'm nervous and honestly very scared, and if you ask me if I want to exchange my life, I don't want to be clear, but it's a path I can't avoid to be with Mason one day.

Then cut it off and tell Mason, "Whoa, you can use this woman. I wonder if I could take you on a journey in the future with this" I'll try my best to make it work for you!
