A Painting of the Villainess as a Young Lady

Chapter 132

“Anyway, you look positively dashing in your outfit today.”

Casually engaging in conversation, Cairn smiled slyly as he led her towards a corner.

“You’re being sarcastic.”

“No, I mean it, this outfit really suits you. How about trying to enter the knightage while you’re at it? I’ve heard you have some talent too.” for new novels

“It’s too much work.”

“Why? That’s the one thing I wish I could do. If there are annoying guys, you can poke holes in their bellies.”

“You’re not seriously becoming a knight just to beat up annoying guys, are you?”

“No way. I also have my own reasons to become a knight.”

“......”

Violet narrowed her eyes.

Cairn chuckled at his sister’s icy expression. His sister, for one, had been tormented by all sorts of threats coming from a certain someone who was now claiming to have reasons to become a knight—the supposed epitome of chivalry.

However, it wasn’t a situation that could be defused with laughter.

“Anyway, I’m just suggesting you think about it at least once. It’s good to have various hobb— Huh?”

“Kyahh—!”

Amidst the bustling banquet hall, someone stumbled in Violet’s direction. Of course, Violet avoided them. Regular morning training was indeed quite effective.

Experiencing the same thing for two consecutive days, and the scream seemed quite convincing this time. Violet looked at the fallen woman expressionlessly.

“Wow, now I understand what they mean by people saying that you have a knack for swordsmanship, Sister.”

Cairn muttered unhelpful words from the sidelines. Anticipating the situation that would follow, Violet sighed and gestured for Cairn to stay back.

Step back, third of House Everett, who doesn’t know how to read the room.

“The name Tolofia sounds a bit familiar. I suppose you already know my name without me introducing myself?”

“Of course.”

Artier Rouble Tolofia smiled softly. Violet inwardly clicked her tongue at the sight of the woman’s vastly different countenance from the day before. The compliment that she was as pretty as a doll must have hit her quite hard.

A brief exchange of pleasantries followed. For Violet, it was a rather dull time, but Lady Tolofia kept the conversation going.

“If it wouldn’t be impolite, could we have a moment to get to know each other better?”

“If it is impolite, would you give up?”

“It would be unfortunate not to have a chance to converse more with the person I’ve been admiring.”

“It was a joke. A short chat is fine.”

Violet smiled. Behind her smiling demeanor, Lady Tolofia ground her teeth unnoticed as she looked at that arrogant smile on Violet’s lips.

“It was a pity as well that you weren’t able to stay longer yesterday. Everyone is curious about you.”

“Hmm.”

“If it’s okay with you, could I introduce you to my friends?”

While walking gracefully, the blonde beauty spoke softly.

All eyes in the vicinity turned to the two women. Violet pretended not to notice the attention and replied.

“Do I have to?”

“Ah. It’s not, it’s not necessary. No.”

Violet’s straightforward response left the woman flustered and she cleared her throat. Violet smiled.

This social gathering was held in the heart of the enemy’s camp, and it was in this place that stories to feast upon would start to bud and blossom.
