Why Did I Become the Villainess?

"Lady Csille? Are you okay? You look pale." Lilla asked worriedly. 

I shake my head at her. "I'm okay. I just feel a little dizzy."

I look at Leander, who is busy helping those students who got hurt because of the fire. It's really Leander, but why is he here? 

I put my hand on my head when I felt a sudden pain in it. It's as if someone is hammering it. 

What is happening? Why does my head hurt so bad? It feels like it's about to split into two. I close my eyes and put my hands on my head. 

"Lady Csille? Are you okay?" I heard Lilla ask me worriedly. But I'm too busy trying to ease the pain in my head. 

The last thing I remember is I felt my body and floats, and I heard a very familiar voice. 

________________________________

I see myself sitting among the crowd. Listening to a man in front of the stage. We're in a theater room. 

"Welcome, students! I am Ernest Foulqueret, the university Professor in Alderrdeen, and I will be your Professor for this semester's break classes. First of all, I want to greet you with a warm welcome. We are honored to have you here."

The crowd claps. Professor Foulqueret then starts to explain the rules and regulations of the school. He also explains what would happen for the semester break classes. He also gave us a little overview and the history of the school.

"Again, welcome to Alderrdeen School of Knowledge." He then gestured his hand towards a young man, probably a college student in here. "This is one of your seniors. He is a business major. He will be the one who'll tour you around the university and will explain things to you."

The tour started. The senior explains in detail the history and the use of each feature in the school. 

I was so engrossed listening to the rich history of the Alderrdeen School when someone tapped my shoulder. I looked back and found a blonde lady with hazel doll eyes looking at me. 

"You're Lady Csille Lauretré, right?" She asks with enthusiasm. I can see sparkles in her eyes. 

It's Lilla! Is it the scene when Csille met Lilla? 

I nod my head at her. "Yes, I am. Do... I know you?"

The Lady smile. "You probably don't know me, but I know you. You're the daughter of Count Waltier Lauretré and the only heiress of the Lauretré family. You're also the new Gold Grand Exemplar." 

I smile at her. "Yes, I am. But do I know you?"

The lady shakes her head. "I'm sorry for being rude. I was just excited when I saw you. I really admired you even before, so when I saw you here, I got excited. I am Lilla Vassellevé. I am from the Frailens City. You probably don't know me since my family can't even be compared to the wealthy family from the Kingdoms." Lilla stares at me. "Can I be your friend?"

I am about to answer her when the surrounding suddenly changes. Lilla, who was standing in front of me earlier, disappeared. 

I looked around and found myself inside a classroom. I looked in front and found Prince Joachim. 

He's a Professor? In the Alderrdeen School of Knowledge? 

"Good day, everyone. Welcome to your second year in college. I am Professor Joachim Brissaud, and I will be your Professor for this semester."

I heard everyone gasp and whisper to each other. 

"That's Prince Joachim of the Yesian Kingdom, right? He's the new Professor in the Alderrdeen?"

"I heard he graduated with a high mark in Yesian University, but now he immediately became a Professor in Alderrdeen?"

"He is known for being an intelligent person in the Yesian Kingdom. They even said, if not for his disability, he can be the next heir to the throne."

"I don't care about what they said. All I know is, this class will definitely be exciting."

So, this is why Prince Joachim is in the Alderrdeen because he is a Professor here. But why would he want to be a Professor? That's something I didn't expect.

"Lady Csille Lauretré? Can you introduce yourself first?" Prince Joachim asked me.

I sigh. I was about to introduce myself, but the surrounding suddenly changed again. I found myself sitting on one of the benches in an open field. 

"Lady Csille. I heard there's a new medical scholar. They even said that he is so handsome and smart. Some ladies even fake sickness so that they can see that medical scholar." Lilla enthusiastically said to me. 

We're currently in the open field. Resting. 

I didn't respond to her words and continued reading the book I was holding. 

Lilla groans. "Lady Csille, aren't you curious? Even just a little. I know you had an amazing and handsome fiancée but are you not curious how that new medical scholar looks like?"

I am about to reply when someone calls my name. I looked back and saw Leander walking towards us. My eyes immediately widen. 

"Senior? What are you doing here?"

Lilla tugs the sleeves of my clothes. "You know him?" She whispered.

Leander smiled at me. "Lady Csille, I didn't expect I would see you here on my first day in the Alderrdeen." 

I stand up. "Senior, why are you here? Did you come here to study?"

Leander chuckled. "As much as I want to study further but the Alderrdeen school doesn't want to take me anymore. I am here as a medical scholar."

It's the reason why Leander is here. He becomes a medical scholar. That made sense. 

"Lady Csille, you know him? That's the new scholar I am talking about." Lilla whispered to my ears.

I look at her, but a blinding light suddenly engulfs the place. Leaving me no choice but to cover my eyes, and when I opened my eyes, I found myself inside the school's clinic. 

I sigh and slowly get up. I now remember everything. 

After Csille Lauretré got invited for a semester break class in the Alderrdeen School of Knowledge, she was invited to be part of their school. The Count and the Countess were so elated that they immediately accepted the invitation without even asking for Csille's opinion.

In the end, Csille changed school in her last year in high school, and since the Alderrdeen City and the Vrawyth Kingdom are on the opposite side. Csille stays in Alderrdeen for the whole school year. 

Csille graduated with high honor. Aside from having excellent grades. She was recognized for her good deeds. 

Throughout the one year she was here, she fulfilled her promise to Prince Fraser. She tried her best to change her behavior. Although at first, she finds it too difficult since she grew up with that behavior. However, every time she will remember her promise to Prince Fraser, she thrives her best to be better. 

After graduating from the Alderrdeen, everyone knows about her achievements in Alderrdeen. The Royal University of Vrawyth even invited her to be their student. 

Csille is about to accept their invitation, but the Count stops her. He wants her daughter to continue her college life in the Alderrdeen instead of being in Vrawyth because he knows that the quality of education in Alderrdeen is way better than in Vrawyth.

In the end, Csille enrolled in the Alderrdeen. She took business as her major since she's the only heiress of the Lauretré business. She's the only one who will manage all of their business. Her Brother Pascal isn't interested in business and has already left everything to Csille. Saying it will be best if she will be the one who will manage Lauretré's businesses.

Csille's first year as a college university student in Alderrdeen was great. She was a consistent top student and was recognized by the Principal as one of the best students among her batch. 

Csille just didn't focus on her studies. She also participated in organization events. Doing some volunteering and such. She was even recognized as a role model for the students.

In her second year as a college student, Prince Joachim becomes the youngest Professor in the Alderrdeen School of Knowledge. He becomes Csille's Professor in most of her classes. It even continues until her last year in Alderrdeen. 

In her third year, Leander becomes a medical scholar in the Alderrdeen. After he graduated from the Royal University of Vrawyth as a medical student, he worked as an apprentice in one of the known hospitals in Vrawyth. He spent two years there and became famous for doing unbelievable surgery and researches, which attracted the attention of the Alderrdeen. It's the reason why he becomes a medical scholar.

"Thank goodness. You're awake, Lady Csille. You don't know how much you scared me. It's a good thing Doctor Leander was there to carry you to the clinic. He said the reason why you collapsed is because of fatigue. Did you spend your spare time doing some volunteering again? I already told you, you need to rest, or it will have a toll on your body. Look what happened to you." Lilla scolded me with teary eyes.

It's been five years now after Csille was invited to the Alderrdeen, and we're on our last year as students in Alderrdeen.

"You should listen to your friend, Lady Csille. If the Count knows what you are doing to yourself, I'm sure he'll bring you home with him." Leander suddenly enters the room. "I did a check-up on you, and I suggest you start taking care of your health. I'll prescribe multivitamins for you so it can help your body becomes stronger." He then hands a paper to Lilla.

I sigh and nod my head. Although it's not my fault for what happened. It was the real Csille who did it. 

She really changed. For the better. 

Throughout her stay here, she realized her mistakes. That's why she always does volunteering works and helps other people, hoping she can compensate for the evil deeds she made in her past. 

But because of this change too, Csille will become more evil. 

"Thank you, Doctor Leander. I will try to look at Lady Csille. Although you know her. She's stubborn at times. She doesn't listen to anyone." Lilla complains.

I smile awkwardly at her. It's not me. It's the real Csille. 

Leander stares at Csille and sighs. "You better take care of your heath, Lady Csille. Many people are worried about you in the Vrawyth Kingdom. Please don't let them down." He then said his goodbye. 

He is about to exit the room, but he turns around and says to her, "Also, his highness sent me a letter yesterday. He wants to inform you that he will visit the Alderrdeen next month. So, I hope you can take care of your health." He then exits the room.

I froze when I heard what he said. His highness? That's Prince Fraser, right? He will visit Csille?

I suddenly heard a shriek. "Ahh, don't tell me Doctor Leander is talking about his highness, Prince Fraser? Throughout my life, I haven't seen him. I didn't expect I would get a chance to see him here. Prince Fraser Astalieu, the Crown Prince of the Vrawyth Kingdom and its future heir. The most handsome man among the seven Kingdoms. Lady Csille, why didn't you mention about this to me? Are you still my friend?" Lilla pouted.

I shake my head. How will I know? I just woke up after the time skip. How can you expect me to know that? I am still confused with what is currently happening in Csille's life here, okay? Give me a break.

I slump my body on the bed and close my eyes. I don't know what to feel or to think. Prince Fraser will be visiting Csille in Alderrdeen, and it's what I have written. 

Although Csille visits Vrawyth every semester break, she didn't have a chance to be with Prince Fraser because Prince Fraser and Princess Paislee were out, traveling around Vrawyth. 

It's Prince Fraser's practice as the future King of the Vrawyth. He travels to different regions of the Vrawyth to check and see what's the situation in there. 

Throughout the five years that passed. It will be Csille's first time to see Prince Fraser again. And I'm scared. I'm scared of what will happen. Although I write this scene and I know back in my mind what will happen, I'm still frightened.

Because Prince Fraser's visit to Alderrdeen is the first sign of Csille's road to being the Villainess. 

Am I ready for it?
