Save the Villain [Chapter 2]
Methods to Save the Villain Who was Abandoned by the Heroine [Chapter 2]
Attention! Read this translation only at Mrs.Potatoo Novel !
It was not easy to accept the fact that I died once, but memories of my past life flowed like water.
“Damn bitch! If it weren’t for you, my life wouldn’t have been ruined!”
I covered my ears. The innocent eyes instantly became spiteful. Who the hell is this uncle that yells at me? But none of the memories that came to mind were good.
Where is a father who makes his daughter pickpockets and begs because he has no money? As soon as I regain my memory of my previous life, I wanted to hit Demon’s solar plexus right away, but my hand was a light bat.
I stayed quiet for a month because there was nothing I could do with my child’s body. It was like a scarecrow in the field. A fool scarecrow standing with his arms open even if a sparrow pecked.
Even if I get cursed at, I’ll just stare blankly. Even if I scream, I just stare blankly. When he tried to hit me for losing money in the gambling board, I ran away.
A little over a month later, I knew where this place was. It was inside the book <Random Box>, a book I read on a boring plane. Ciel, a child of the slum, was a minor role that did not appear once in the original.
That’s why it took a long time to find out where this place was, even though I found the memory of my previous life. There seemed to be no one to help me. But there was a way to escape.
I saved some pennies secretly from Damion.  I put the money I got from running errands under the can.
Also, after I ran an errand for the ingredients of a bakery uncle who thought I was worthless, saying that I was having a hard time at a young age, I was given a fairly salty salary.
It was money that I could barely buy and eat a delicious food, but I saved it. When I used the money I had barely saved to send a letter to a nobleman, I was left with nothing.
________________
It was the day I came back from going out early in the morning. That day too, Damion held a bottle and pointed at me. Even though the sun was shining brightly in broad daylight, he was busy drinking.
— Child, it’s noisy.
Damion, who has a skinny body, opened his eyes wide. Where did you dare to look like that?
— Hey, you! What are those eyes? Do you know who I am?
— Yes. I heard you’re Baron Jun’s butler. Then what’s the point? It’s already been over.
I looked at him with a dull eye. I know it’s Ciel’s biological father, but there’s nothing to know. The lady who lived with Damion said he was a great handsome man when he was young, but it was none of my business.
— Mister, I heard that you embezzled Baron Jun’s property while working as a butler?
Damion was looking at me like a crazy kid.
That’s understandable. The daughter who listened well and was obedient, said, ‘Dad, I ‘m sorry.’ Instead of saying, ‘I heard you embezzled it.?’
How did I know that you embezzled it?
I was about to get a scab on my ear every day. This was because when Demion was drunk, he started with ‘I used to be a horse, I····’ and ended with embezzlement.
— Ha, this crazy girl…
Is this guy cursing again?
I was looking at Damion with a slightly tired look.
— Aaakkh!!
When he raised his hand as if to hit, I shouted in a roaring voice. Are you really crazy? There’s no place to hit this small body.
— Huh?
Damion was looking at me with a face that said, ‘Is this crazy?’
The only thing I could trust was myself, who was young and weak. But with what guts are you doing this?
I slowly turned my head when I heard the rustling sound. Damion’s, who had been arguing with me, also turned his head.
— It’s over there, Baron Jun.
There was Baron Jun standing with a stiff face like a stone statue of Moai. He was a vassal of Count Renice, the lord of the country village where I was.
A Baron would be nothing in the ranks of aristocrats, but to commoners like us, it was a far-fetched status.
— Right. My butler was here!
A sly smile appeared on the Baron’s hardened face. Renice’s crazy dog. Psycho Jun stretched out his arms as if to hug him.
— You acted like you’d lick my feet, then embezzle my property! You’re such a punk!
Fortunately, Baron Jun was not even interested in me. It was the same with his knights. He was just missing the old butler, who hit the back of his head.
Baron Jun passed me by instinctively raising his arms to cover his face.
— It’s remuneration.
Baron Jun grinned and threw me a pocket of some gold coins.
— How dare you, 4 years!
— What an ugly father he was. Unlike you stupid bastard, your child is pretty clever.
I looked around lightly. Lowered my head and bowed to the Baron and left the old house without looking back.
— Mister, don’t live your life like that.
Before leaving, I didn’t forget to aim for Damion.
Luckily I’m escaped from the slums, but the reality was cruel. I was scammed in the process of exchanging a bag of gold coins for silver coins.
In fact, it wasn’t a scam, it was almost just coercion. It was the same wherever I went.
Even though he knew the exact price, he shouted what the girl knew, and threatened to report it to the guards for stealing a noble’s pocket.
Only after biting the hand of the shopkeeper who trying to steal my money, I managed to escape. If it were a past life, it would be unexpected.
In the past when I was Si-eun, I was quite obedient, but it was not just because of the memories of suffering. For me, waking up as a child in a slum, I had a hard time changing money.
Even when I left the slums, I thought it would be easy to change money, and I was lucky enough to meet a noble guardian….
Who knew that I would live a harder life than my previous life?
‘Because I can’t even use magic and I’m so dirty that anyone thinks I’m a child from the slum.’
Light sky blue hair was like a straw, and black spots were all over my white skin. The turquoise eyes that should have sparkled like a child were dead black. The old dress I was wearing looked like a piece of cloth woven in rags.
The Baron offered a more generous favor than expected, but there were more bad guys in the world who couldn’t just leave a child with money behind.
‘I’ve been through all the bitterness of the world.’
Heh heh, this is true. Still, at the age of thirteen, I met the chief of the maidservant of the Archduke and saved my life, which was close to death.
‘Because there weren’t only bad people.’
It was Aunt Mariane, a maid at the Grand House of Yekart, who saved me from dying on the street. It is said that Baron Jun lost all the remuneration he had and was in a wagon accident while walking on the streets.
My body was weak, and I was seriously injured, so I had no memory from the accident. The gentle maid told me that she had brought me, who was losing my life, to the palace of the Archduke.
With the consideration of Aunt Mariane, I worked as an apprentice maid for the Archduke at the age of 13. My colleagues also came around my age, so it wasn’t that early.
Four years have already passed since I came to the Archduke palace.
“Ciel, are you getting ready to sleep?”
“Aunt Mariane?”
“I came here because I was worried. Aren’t you in charge of all the work yourself?”
“No, my colleagues often do too.”
“That’s a relief, but…..”
Aunt Mariane, who looked a little thin, approached me and asked. The old woman had been resting after suffering from a rare disease, but it seems that she came out today because the saint was coming.
The old lady, who was chubby many years ago, was so thin that she stood out.Aunt Marian who gave me a warm smile and left immediately, she said she had something to say to the butler.
‘I have to work, work!’
I started cleaning again, after resting for a while. What has changed so far is that I have escaped the apprenticeship and become an official maid.
In fact, being a maid is not a job that modern people like very much, but I was quite satisfied with it.
I don’t know if it had been better if I became the female protagonist and who is full of ability. I was just an unnamed minor, and I needed a way to make a living right now.
Being the maid of the villain and sub-male, Ferze Yekart, I had no other options. Come to think of it, there were many anecdotes about the Archduke.
Such as catching a serial killer and throwing it alive at a monster, or slashing the enemy’s neck without changing a single expression even though a poisoned arrow is pierced in his shoulder.
It was said that a nobleman who molested the maid of the Archduke was prevented from succeeding the generations….
It was the motto of the Archduke to pay back three times revenge. There were other things, but that’s all I remember. At this point, he could be known as a hero.
Perhaps because of the overbearing atmosphere and the cruel punishment, Ferze is the evil Grim Reaper. He is known as a villain blinded by blood and slaughter.
However, Ferze, who was born as the owner of our Archduke and a great villain, was a pretty good master, unlike public criticism.
