Chapter 17: The villainess is narrow-minded (1)
I acciddentally posted the wrong chapter in the past. I am sorry for the trouble. I was taking care of one of my close relatives at the hospital and wasn't really in the right psychological condition. I will be releasing an extra chapter to make up for my mistake. I hope you understand.
The banquet at the MageTower was held over two days. Today was the first day of the banquet, and the banquet had just begun.
In the banquet hall, there were only people who had aristocratic background.
Me and Shael were quietly keeping to ourselves in the corner. Shael was just annoyed, and I was there to somehow prevent conflict between Shael and the female protagonist.
Of course, we couldn’t stay still like that for long.Gẹtt the latest novels at n.o/(v)/e/l/bin(.)com
It was because the Mage Tower Lord, Aren Jaygers, found us and approached us.
“What are you doing?”
I hurriedly approached the Mage Tower Lord and asked. I did that because Shael was about to open her mouth, and nothing good would come out every time he opened her mouth. I had expected that he would react violently as soon as he saw me, but the Mage Tower Lord seemed calmer than I thought.
No, rather he was smiling.
It was strange. Where did that Mage Tower Lord, who had such a terrible personality, go?
Right at that moment, an ominous sound forced me to stop thinking.
Chang... crang!!!
I looked back at the ominous sound. There was a broken wine glass on the floor.
The female protagonist, Clie, was lying face down on the floor. And... Shael’s clothes were red from wine.
“Oh, that! Sorry! Sorry!”
“...”
It happened within just a few seconds of the Mage Tower Lord approaching me.
‘No, how could it be like that? It doesn’t make sense!’
Shael looked down at Clie, and said, “You did it on purpose.”
Fortunately, Shael followed my advice. Or maybe, she was waiting for those words.
Shael and I walked silently until everyone was out of sight.

“Are you okay?”
“What is it? I am fine.”
Unexpectedly, the villainess looked calm. It was different from when she was trying hard to not lose to me. On the contrary, maybe that’s why, Shael didn’t seem the same. I didn’t know if she was really okay, but...
“Puh, pouhh...”
Shael suddenly laughed.
‘Was she really that shocked by what happened earlier?’
It was something that would definitely upset the villainess. Before the banquet, she got into a fight with the Mage Tower Lord, and during the banquet, her clothes were stained with wine, and people cursed at her. Moreover, she was forced to leave the banquet. It was a situation that would make anyone angry.
“Ah, I feel much better now.”
I couldn’t understand Shael’s behavior at all. Was she really upset? She did understand that she had suffered, right? No matter how ignorant the villainess was there’s no way she didn’t know that.
As I was looking at Shael with a puzzled expression, she spoke to me.
“Look at this.”
