Why Are You Becoming a Villain Again?

Origin(4)

I shook off the twins’ hands that were holding my hands. Since there were servants approaching, they give thanks and receive the food they give out.

While the food was decorating the table one by one, there was once again a strange tension between us when silence came.

No matter how much the atmosphere was relaxed, the hostility accumulated over the long history did not go away in an instant.

To prove that, Nera Ice, the eldest daughter of the Ice family, was looking at me with a slightly dissatisfied expression.

It’s a lineage, but is there such a person as well? The moment my eyes changed, obviously, right after I heard that I was being expelled from my family….

In any case, it is a society with a strong class system.

There are some unusual things that come to mind when you observe quietly. Looking at the high-ranking nobles, especially the heads of their families, it seems that they do not put too many restrictions on their status.

So did Grandma Liana, and so did the Ice Duke. It seems that the fact that I am from a commoner is not very important.

Awesome, powerless nobles. Or, like the Nera Ice shown here, I have a feeling that people who are far from responsible are looking down on me.

It wasn’t very important, but it was interesting.

Of course, it may not be the only one. It is also not to be judged prematurely.

Because Nera Ice is the one who was against my affiliation. Because it was the first person who said that if I marry Judy, I will accept it.

It may just be that he is wary of Priest.

But again, a sudden thought occurred to me that she might be hating Judy.

If you look at the eyes you couldn’t see when you first came here as a Priest, and what you see after the story of your expulsion, the problem will be your identity.

If you think about it, Judy was also the eldest daughter and had a lot of troubles in the family…. Maybe Nera was the cause.

So, I made a proposal that was difficult to think of until then, that the family would accept it only after marrying me.

It was my guess not to show everyone, but it was inevitable that my gaze on Nera would change.

When all the food was placed on the table, the attendants bowed their heads and left.

A variety of food is placed in the center of the table, and each glass is filled with wine. It was early to drink alcohol, but it was also vague that there was no alcohol in this place.

Especially if you live in a cold area, and the ice family is close to alcohol.

Grandma raises a spoon first and says:

“Eat it.”

“Before that, let’s celebrate this occasion and make a toast.”

The Ice Duke raises his glass and says: The grandmother raises the glass accordingly, and then everyone raises the glass.

“For ice and fryers.”

As the Ice Duke said,

“For Fryster and Ice.”

Grandma answers

Each of us had a drink with the person opposite.

Asena and her eldest son Sid Ice.

I’m with Judy.

And Nerawa Kirsi.

– Clap.

“oh!”

Between the clashes of the clear-sounding glasses, a young voice raised the voice.

– Chow..! Tingling..!

Kirsi, who bumped the glass with Nera, missed the glass and tipped it towards her, and wine spills on her elegant two-piece.

“Kirsi!”

I put down my glass and got up at the same time as Kirsi.

Kirsi blinks his eyes injustice and looks at Nera.

“Why…why do you make the cup so hard…”

Seeing Kirsi withdrawn, I looked at Nera sharper than I intended. I was worried from a while ago… is it coming out like this?

Nera blinked for a moment, cleared her expression and said.

“…sorry.”

When Nera apologizes, I take my eyes first. She sighed, calming herself down through her nose, and took the white cloth napkin that was on the table and wiped her clothes.

“…it’s okay?”

Kirsi answers.

“….it’s okay..”

But his eyes didn’t look that good. The woman who replied that I was okay was so wonderful.

You wouldn’t like this place… Maybe it’s because you remember what I said before coming to Sanggyunrye. She looked like she was trying to hold back.

But no matter how much I cleaned her clothes, the stains that had already formed did not go away.

“…do you want to change clothes?”

I asked her, but Kirsi pondered for a moment and shook her head.

“…will you be here?”

As Kirsi was about to sit down again, he could now see the many eyes staring at us.

The Ice Duke opened his mouth first.

“…Kirsi, young girl. sorry. As a representative, I apologize. Yes, be careful.”

“Yes, father. Kirsi, I apologize once again.”

Nera meekly admits her mistake to Kirsi.

Without realizing it, my eyes turn to Sid Ice. I don’t know why, but maybe that’s how I feel, so I wanted to get an apology from him.

Sid Ice looked into my eyes and didn’t say anything. They were having a conversation to make peace, but they fought as if they did not forget that they were still hostile families.

Of course, I don’t really have Priest roots… but I’m also the eldest son of the family.

He didn’t want to avoid Sid Ice’s gaze.

As I was staring into his eyes for a while, Asena grabbed my hand next to me again.

“…Brother..Calm down.”

Asena’s reaction was quite different from before. When I brought out the expulsion case, I thought I was saying it because I wanted to destroy the marriage, but now I am trying not to ruin the atmosphere of the meeting.

Was it because the story I brought up earlier was something that should not be delayed in the end?

That doesn’t explain why Asena shook her head right after that as if not to go.

In the end, all the troubles cannot be resolved because we cannot look into the mind of the person concerned. It’s not something I can ask right now.

Putting aside all the complicated worries, I sighed and removed my gaze from Sid Ice.

“…have a meal.”

Liana’s grandmother evoked the atmosphere.

At her words, everyone raised the spoon again.

“….”

At that moment, Kirsi moans.

I asked, sensitive to her reaction.

“…why, Kirsi. Would you like to come and change clothes?”

“Ah… no.”

Her reaction was surprising, but she turned her head forward at the touch of her reaching out.

Judy was restless with an apologetic expression on her face.

It’s up to Kirsi to forgive, but the anger that has risen in me cools when I see her.

Yes, that must have been a mistake.

The reason why I was so angry is because of my assumption that it must have been intentional in the end.

It’s about catching someone with the eyes you showed me or the stories you’ve heard.

In order to relax the atmosphere again, I try to put a bit of an unreasonable number.

Without taking a sip, he picked up the glass he had put down again and reached out to Judy.

“As much as it is a place for us.”

Judy blushes, slowly grabbing the glass.

-Ting.

Glasses collide with each other with a clear sound.

The Ice Duke laughed, and even Grandma Liana had a small smile.

“👌👌👌..!”

At that moment, Kirsi groaned again.

When he turned his head towards her, Kirsey frowned.

“what’s the matter?”

I ask her in a more serious voice.

“Oh, no.”

Kirsi turned around again, but this time I didn’t let go.

If it’s something people can’t see, you can lend your ear.

He leaned over to her and asked quietly.

“For what reason? Tell your brother.”

Kirsi hesitated, whispered in my ear.

“Oppa… can’t this be a problem?”

“…what’s going on?”

Anger slowly began to enter his voice.

“…Nera Ice…keeps kicking my shin…”

At those words, for a moment, I felt my face turn red.

Was it because Nera was constantly kicking under the table?

And did Kirsi keep holding up so as not to disturb the mood with my words?

“…..”

But even though I’m so angry, I’m really ashamed…but I have a question.

If I listen to Kirsi here and start questioning Nera, the atmosphere of Sanggyunrye will be shattered.

And in the first place, Kirsi…and Asena. I didn’t like this place.

What if… this is acting? Kirsi hasn’t told me a big lie in a while, but this may be the first time he’s lied to me.

It was really embarrassing for me to do this, as I promised the twins would be a place to lean on, but I still needed proof.

“… see you.”

As we continued to whisper next to each other, our eyes were drawn again, but there was something more important to me than that.

Kirsch shook her head.

“…Oh, no. All right, brother.”

“Shall we see you?”

I was raising my voice all of a sudden.

Kirsi hesitated and turned around in the chair.

Her legs point towards me, and I carefully lift the skirt.

And red blood was dripping down from the exposed, immaculate shin of Kirsi.

this is it

I lifted my head and stared straight at Nera.

“What is this, Nera Ice?”

The words did not come out well. My brother’s blood, which I had never seen before, excited me.

As if in bewilderment, Nera rolls her eyes and bites her lip.

“…that one did it first.”

She also senses my mood and brings out a hostile tone of voice.

“Did Kirsi do it first?”

“okay. He kicked it first and then shot me in the eye.”

When he turned to Kirsi, Kirsi shook his head.

“I.. I accidentally hit it first.. But I didn’t shoot it, I saw it to apologize..”

“After that?”

“After that, I didn’t do anything more. But he spills wine on me and keeps kicking his shin…”

I turn my gaze to Nera again.

“Nera Ice. It’s funny to judge the degree, but no matter how much you think about it, I think you’re exaggerating.”

“……”

“I can’t apologize in this situation where my brother even saw blood, right?”

“I apologized before.”

Looking at Nera’s mood, it seemed that he wanted to argue with us rather than not knowing what he had done wrong.

Okay, now that I see, it wasn’t just the twins who didn’t like this marriage talk. I don’t know about Sid Ice, but Nera was definitely looking at this place negatively.

“Yes. Get the atmosphere.”

The threatening tone of the Ice Duke resounded.

But even Ne, as if something had exploded, rebelled against him.

“Father, didn’t that one do it first..!”

“It was a mistake and I was going to apologize. Who saw the blood and ruined the clothes?”

“……”

I said clenching my teeth.

“Now that I see, the wine was intentional.”

“……”

“..haha…I am this..”

“father. Stop it now.”

Nera said coldly.

“What?”

“Such a joke. I mean, let’s stop now. You can’t make peace with Pryster either.”

Grandma Liana also intervened.

“Don’t put the fryer in your mouth. Especially that way.”

Nera then trembled, averted her gaze, and closed her mouth.

However, it was difficult to calm the overheated atmosphere.

Judy’s surprised eyes wandered here and there. It’s a shame to dress so beautifully.

“Apologize to my brother.”

I said,

“I have no intention of apologizing to Freister. Especially if you are from common people.”

It was confusing now. Is it like that in the first place, or is it because it’s a hostile family, so it’s getting worse?

Asena jumped up from her seat at that moment.

Then he picked up the wine glass and sprinkled it on Nera.

– Chow!

“oh!”

Asena was too fast for Nera to dodge it.

His clothes get wet like Kirsi.

“Don’t tease my brother like that.”

Nera wipes her wet face and speaks without being pushed.

“….huh. On the day of the meeting, you mean your brother who comes with a kiss mark on his neck?”

As much as it was about me, I didn’t get angry as much as it wasn’t about my younger siblings.

But considering my position, I can’t just let such a thing go.

“…Nera Ice. You may be held responsible for the insult.”

“How are you going to hold yourself accountable?”

“I’m thinking of doing something to tarnish the family through a public duel with Sid Ice.”

Sid Ice’s eyes find me. This time I didn’t avoid his eyes.

“stop!”

The Ice Duke hits the table and gets up from his seat.

As a result, Sid Ice, who had been silent, also rises.

Judy was still confused, looking at me as if asking for help,

Nera bites her lip, wipes the remaining wine, and stands up.

said the Ice Duke.

“…Mrs. Liana. I apologize for all the rudeness of the day.”

“…I’m sorry too.”

Grandma rarely offered an apology.

The Ice Duke continues.

“…the rift between our families seems to be deeper than I thought.”

“….Right.”

“…Let’s take a moment to think about marriage again.”

Judy exclaimed in surprise.

“Ah… Father…!”

“Judy. Just get up.”

And the Ice Duke began to move.

Judy looked at the Ice Duke leaving with a mournful face, then met my eyes again.

It hurts me too, but definitely. this is not I don’t want to go under the Ice family at the cost of my brother’s humiliation. It wasn’t Judy’s problem.

When I don’t respond, Judy slowly gets up from her seat. She bowed to Liana’s grandmother and left the room as well.

okay. In the end, this is the place where Sanggyun-rye is said to be. Let’s see if we can get along with each other.

…but we didn’t fit in.

****

It was just a mistake.

As she sat on the chair, her outstretched leg hit Nera Ice’s outstretched shin.

Kirsi looked up at Nera in embarrassment, but Nera just turned her gaze back without responding.

Is it because I don’t want to show my weakness? Since there was no response, Kirsi doubted whether it was Nera that he was kicking.

Kirsi bowed her head slightly and apologized to her.

Still, Nera did not respond.

But Kirsi’s nerves weren’t focused on it, so he could just skip that part.

The important thing was… Asena’s words.

Says that Cayden is expelled from the family. With that said, I should have hoped that everything would turn out well.

But because of her grandmother’s promise, the plan was shattered, leaving Kirsy to feel a deep sense of despair.

Now in what way?

He had no idea how to catch Caden as he left.

Looking up at the front, Nera was still staring at her.

Unlike before, Kirsi is moved to tears.

I apologized earlier, not because I was pushed back in the fight. The reason he averted his eyes was because he was concentrating on Cayden.

However, the image of Nera still glaring at her, her will to risk the fight was so petty that Kirsi received that gaze.

I stared at my opponent like that for a while.

Then, at the moment when the glass had to be struck, Kirsi saw Nera’s hand approaching faster than expected.

In a fleeting moment, judgment is stagnant. plan as well.

Kirsi loosened the strength in her hand holding the glass, and the wine spilled on her as she collided with the glass Nera held out.

Immediately after, she acted like a kinder person than anyone else in the world. As much as I didn’t want to be hated by Cayden, I played a unique younger brother.

Actually, it wasn’t that difficult to play. I’m better at pretending to be nice to Kayden than anyone else in the world. Because he’s better at blaming Cayden than anyone else.

There was no guilt about it. Because all he did was accidentally hit Nera’s leg and hold the wine glass weakly.

She was just seizing the opportunity.

Nera was pushed by the Ice Duke and had to apologize to herself.

and Kirsi. When no one was looking at her, she raised the corners of her mouth and laughed at Nera slightly.

He didn’t think he had such a vicious side, but it didn’t matter if it was to protect Kaden.

And I felt bad because the plan I had made to protect Kayden in the first place collapsed.

Nera Ice slapped her shin strongly, apparently in anger.

Along with that pain, Kirsi felt joy.

I saw the way Considering Kayden’s personality, it was a very clear path.

“….”

Kirsey gets the mark that he was beaten with exaggerated expressions. Immediately after, he smiled at Nera as if it was all he had.

Let Kaden hear the painful voice. Let Nera see the smile. Doing two things at the same time, Kirsi moved forward with the plan.

In that way, Cayden saw his own blood, and Kirsi had to calm his pounding heart as he saw Cayden who was angry for him.

Even at such a meeting, I was happy enough that my head melted into the thought of giving it for myself in the end.

It wouldn’t be without him either. never without him

So Cayden is furious for himself, and the Duke of Ice makes a decision.

“…Let’s take a moment to think about marriage again.”

My heart raced like crazy at those words. As if breathing had been blocked, the burden on his shoulders disappeared.

It was best not to laugh or cry because of emotion.

Immediately after those words, Kirsi tried to hide her emotions with all her might.

Kaden rolled her eyes, still looking angry, and Asena was hiding her emotions.

But, just like her, Asena’s lips trembled, so I could tell that she was putting up with intense pleasure.

.

.

.

The pleasure didn’t last long.

next day.

The grandmother once again called the three siblings.

She said at the gathering.

“Kayden. Yes, I found the next fiancée.”
