Why Did I Become the Villainess?

It's been a week now after the opening ceremony of the Grand Exemplary Competition. And throughout the days that have passed, I still couldn't control my body. It was Csille who controlled it.

Although I don't have the control over my body, I feel more exhausted than when I can move it on my own will. Maybe because I am still inside Csille's body, and technically a part of me is Csille too, that's why I can feel the exhaustion of this body.

"Purplany, you're here. What are you doing here? I've been looking for you everywhere, the match of Prince Fraser is about to start. Why are you still here? Come on." 

Csille looks at Rufus, who suddenly barged into the tea room in the Vrawyth residence. She sighs and stares at her cup of tea. "What's the use? He won't even appreciate my presence. So, I'm saving my time and giving him what he wants.." Csille smile bitterly before she drinks the tea on her cup.

Throughout the days that have passed. Csille relationship with Prince Fraser gets worst each day. After Prince Fraser accused Csille of what happened to Princess Paislee, he became colder. He also makes sure that he won't see Csille as much as possible. He didn't even attend Csille's matches. 

Csille tried to talk to him and explain her side a couple of times, but Prince Fraser always refused to see her. It's been days since she last talked to him.

Rufus sigh and sit on the chair in front. "Purplany, are you just going to let it affect you? There has been humor going on lately. People already know that Prince Fraser doesn't attend your matches, and everyone assumes that the two of you are fighting. Do you want that?"

Csille sigh. She doesn't want to, but what can she do? Prince Fraser won't even see her, so why bother attending a match of someone who doesn't appreciate her presence?

"Then tell me, Rufus," Csille stared at him. "Isn't this what he wants? To distance himself from me." Csille smiled bitterly. "He hates me, Rufus."

Rufus got silent for a moment before he held her hand that was resting on the table. "How can you say he hates you. Come on. You know my cousin has a temper sometimes. Are you going to just sit here? It's Prince Fraser's last match before the finals. Don't you want to see how our plan is progressing?"

It's almost the end of the competition. Today is the last day for the semi-finals matches. Csille match ended yesterday, and she aced it again, just like how she aces her other matches. Whether it's the Etiquette category or the Intellect category, she aces it without worry. 

Csille is the only one who didn't follow the plan Prince Fraser had made. Everyone followed through. We all end up as the finalists for all the matches.

Csille sigh and stands up. She never plans to miss Prince Fraser's match. She just plans to get there late so he won't notice her presence. 

"Let's go," she said before grabbing Rufus out of the room.

Although Csille is angry at Prince Fraser for accusing her of being the culprit behind Princess Paislee's almost mishaps and for ignoring him countless times, she still couldn't deny the fact that Prince Fraser is important to her.

________________________________

Csille and Rufus get inside the arena and witness that the people are all cheering for the match that is currently happening right now. It's fencing. 

The match that is currently happening now is fencing. It's also the reason why the audience is in full spirit in cheering. 

The fencing category has two rounds too, the elimination round and the final round. In the first round, a person will need to fight against someone from the other Kingdoms. Their opponents will be based on draw lots. Anyone who wins in the first round will be the finalist for this subcategory.

Fencing has only six candidates, which makes it easier because the number seven is odd, and someone might end up having no opponent. The Saiven Kingdom don't have any representative for this match. It is said that there is no one skillful enough to fight against other Kingdoms.

"Oh, the match is already starting, and it's Prince Fraser's match. We arrived at the perfect timing, purplany," Rufus smiled at me. He then frowns and looks around. "Although I don't understand why do we sit here. The location isn't that great. Can you see anything from here?"

Csille decided not to show herself to Prince Fraser for now. She's still mad at what he had said to her. Although she knows she couldn't bear to miss this fight. So, she'll just blend in with the crowd. She even put on a black wig and wore a sunglasses so that she wouldn't attract attention from other people.

Her disguise is actually flawless now since her most distinguishing traits are not visible. But Csille forgot a certain someone.

Csille sigh. "You know what, why don't you join the rest. I cannot focus in the match since you keep talking non stop. Also, I want to have some peace without anyone noticing my presence but with you here. Do you think it's possible?"

Rufus looks at Csille and looks around him. He shakes his head and leans towards Csille. "Purplany, there are many people here. What if the moment I join the rest, someone abducts you? Have you forgotten about the threat of the Strzalka?"

Csille rolled her eyes. "Do you think there is someone who'll dare to abduct a person in a crowded place? Also, I already disguise myself. The longer you stay here, those people will realize that I am Csille. With you here, my safety is threatened."

Rufus sigh. "But if I leave you behind, what will I say to Prince Fraser if something happened to you?"

Csille stare at Prince Fraser, who is currently fighting now. She then smile bitterly. "It's as if he cares." She mumbles to herself.

"What did you say?"

She shakes her head. "You don't have to worry. I'll take full responsibility if anything happens. Also, do you think someone like me can easily be abducted? If something happens, I'll just take my cover, and I'm sure everyone will step up when they realize who I am."

Having no choice, Rufus left Csille. Although he keeps looking back at Csille, checking her surroundings. When he assured that no one suspicious was around, Csille immediately sat beside the Vrawyth representatives. Their teachers are also there to support Prince Fraser.

Csille sighs in relief and focuses her attention in front. Prince Fraser is fighting against the Stozeterra. The Stozeterra Kingdom is best known for their forging skills. They forge the best and the strongest sword in this world. This sword can win against a knight who is excellent at his swordsmanship, even if the person carrying the sword has little talent on it.

Csille starts to get worried about Prince Fraser. She knows how great threat the Stozeterra Kingdom is.

Prince Fraser, please be safe. Although I'm still mad at you. I don't want to see you in pain. Please take care of yourself.

I don't know what to say to the real Csille anymore. She is mad at Prince Fraser, but she still worries about him. Love can really make someone an idiot. Although I cannot blame her, though. She's just madly in love with him that all her reasoning was thrown out somewhere.

Csille looks at Prince Fraser anxiously. The match doesn't favor Prince Fraser. Although Prince Fraser's skill is superior than his opponent. But the opponent's sword is sturdier than his, making it difficult for him to win against the Stozeterra.

Prince Fraser took a spin and startled the opponent with his sudden change of moves. The opponent stumbled on the ground. The crowd cheered, but everyone got shocked when the opponent, who was lying on the ground, suddenly raised his sword and pushed it towards Prince Fraser's stomach.

Csille immediately stands up in fright. Everyone shrieks because of what happened. Prince Fraser got stabbed in his stomach! 

Csille is about to run towards Prince Fraser, but her steps halt when she sees Sir Farren rush towards Prince Fraser and point his sword towards the Stozeterra representative.

It's him again. With him around, will Prince Fraser needs me?

Csille stared at what was happening in the arena before she decided to leave. She knows that even if she rushed towards him, Prince Fraser wouldn't appreciate his presence. He'll probably get mad at her or worst, yell at her in public. 

Although she badly wants to be beside him now. She knows she cannot do that. She smile bitterly. She then takes a look at Prince Fraser, who is now being protected by Sir Farren before she leaves the arena.

________________________________

It's already nighttime now. Csille didn't eat dinner and stay inside her room. She doesn't know what to feel anymore. She's conflicted. She wants to check on Prince Fraser, but her mind is telling her no. So, she just decided to lock herself inside her room. 

Prince Fraser is already injured. She doesn't want to burden him further. Csille stared at her Ceiling and sighed.

Prince Fraser, I hope you are doing fine now. As much as I want to take care of you, I know you wouldn't like it. So, I'll just distance myself from you. For now.

If I could only raise my eyebrow at the real Csille, I would do that. Is she realizing the mistakes she done before? Is she guilty that's why she is doing this? Distancing herself from Prince Fraser because she knows he won't appreciate it?

I tried to remember what I had written. I frowned when I realized something odd happened. I don't remember writing about Prince Fraser getting injured in his fighting against the Stozeterra Kingdom. In fact, he should have won against the Stozeterra without problem. 

But what just happened? Why did Prince Fraser got injured all of a sudden? This doesn't make sense at all. 

And Csille distancing herself from Prince Fraser is out of the script too. There's no way an irrational person like Csille will do this. In fact, if I have written this scene, Csille will definitely rush over to Prince Fraser and fight with Princess Paislee in taking care of Prince Fraser.

So, why? Why is this happening? 

Csille was busy staring at the ceiling when someone knocks on her door. She actually plans to ignore it at first and try to pretend that she is sleeping already. But her eyes widen when the person outside talks.

"Csille, I know you are awake."

Csille immediately gets up and stares at the closed door. 

It's Prince Fraser! What is Prince Fraser doing here? Shouldn't he be with Princess Paislee? Why does is this happening? I don't remember writing this scene, so why? 

I tried to move my hand, but I still couldn't move it, which is quite odd. If I didn't write this, shouldn't I have the full control over Csille's body now? But why can't I still control it? 

Everything doesn't make sense to me. First, Csille's wicked plot against Princess Paislee didn't happen even though I had written it. And now the incident that happened to Prince Fraser. 

Why does all of this is happening? 

"Csille, I know you are still awake. Open the door now. I want to talk to you," Prince Fraser said behind the closed door.

Csille stares at it and bites her lips. She is contemplating if she should open the door or not.

Why is Prince Fraser knocking on my door? Would he get mad at me again? I already distanced myself from him and didn't even rush to his side even if I wanted to. So, what does he wants from me?

Csille takes a deep breath before opening her door. What welcomes her is Prince Fraser with an angry expression on his face. 

"Csille..."
