Villainess Trains Her Assassin [NOVEL VERSION]

Episode 3

After that episode,

She only wanted her parents to stay away from the emperor. But she knew she couldn't since her father, as Duke, had to remain with the Emperor. But how could she stop them now? First, not letting them visit there, which was impossible.

The second step was to stand by them and protect them.

Adela gave her mother a snug smile before asking, "Mother, is it necessary to attend?"

"What are you saying, Adela? Of course, we should. As the duke and duchess of this realm, we must attend and remain with the emperor," replied Veronica.

Adela's eyes narrowed when she heard the word "emperor." Her mother then said, "However, you just overcame a fever. You may remain here".

But Adela spoke out quickly, "No, I will go too."

"Okay, honey, then get ready," Veronica responded with a smile. After saying this, she walked away from there. Adela kept looking straight ahead at her mother's pathway. She had made up her mind to choose option two. She would go and protect her parents.

Elise was helping Adela get ready for the bath. She was washing Adela's long, silky smooth hair. Adela closed her eyes and relaxed in the warm water of the bathtub.

Elise said, "My lady, your hair shines every day more and more.

When Adela heard Elise's statement, she smiled.

In her previous memories, Elise was really helpful. Yet, she was also poisoned to death.

Elise was talking to Adela, but she suddenly became scared and jumped over the side of the tub while Adela was immersed in thoughts.

She screamed, "My lady!"

After hearing her scream, Adela opened her eyes. She was not surprised, since she understood why Elise had shouted. Adela turned around and grinned while looking down at the floor. Her voice was pleasant when she said, "My baby is here."

Adela said, reaching out her hand as a little snake hissed and moved toward her. It then crept up her hand. Elise's frightening gaze was fixed on them.

"My lady, why do you always let him go free? He has venomous teeth, Elise said. The snake instantly hissed at Elise. Elise stepped backward out of fear.

Adela chuckled when she saw Elise in this sight and said, "It's okay. Unless I tell him to or unless there is danger, he won't bite anyone."

As soon as he heard his master's words, he rubbed himself in her palm. "Why are you so afraid of him? It's only a baby," Adela stated. "My lady, I don't want to die in a baby's hands," Elise remarked pityingly.

"hissss."

Oba hissed at Elise after hearing her.

Elise called out to Adela in a trembling voice, "my lady."

"No problem, Oba. She likes you, too," Adela remarked as she patted Oba's head. "Go ahead, touch it," she urged Elise.

Out of terror, Elise shook her head no. However, Adela was always a villain. "If not, I will command Oba to chase you," she threatened.

"hisss."

Oba hissed as if he understood Adela.

Elise cried in terror as she added, "My lady."

"Yes."

Adela nodded and grinned mischievously at her. When Elise couldn't think of anything else, she approached the snake cautiously and tried to touch it. As she extended, her hands trembled.

"hiss."

Elise screamed in terror as she moved her hand, "Oh God." Adela laughed as she caught sight of her.

Adela chuckled aloud.

"haha."

"You don't have to pamper him right now. Go at your own pace," Adela remarked as she stepped out of the tub. She put Oba in his place before leaving to dress.

Elise was assisting Adela with her dress. She was combing Adela's hair when a maid rapped on the door.

[Knock]

"Yes," Adela responded.

"My lady, Ms. Camilla, is here to greet you," a maid said as she entered the chamber, trying to lower her head.

"Camilla?"

Adela said enthusiastically while widening her eyes. She stood up and ordered the maid, "What is there to wait for? Escort her here."

"Yes, my lady," the maid said, going out of the chamber as she spoke.

Elise asked Adela in a startled tone, "Are you okay, my lady?"

Elise was startled to see Adela. After waking up from the sickness, she observed Adela was acting so strangely.

"yes I-".

But just as Adela was ready to say something, she heard Camilla's voice.

"Adela," a sweet, calming voice spoke from behind Adela.

When Adela turned to face the door, she spotted her best friend standing there.

The image of that night flashed across her memory in an instant.

'Camilla? I didn't find you in your chamber that night. Maybe they poisoned you as well, or maybe you were also killed by them,'~ Adela thought.

Adela's best friend, Camilla Victor, is the daughter of the count, David. She is also stunning and bashful, as well as a mage. Her complexion is milky white, with red lips, crimson eyes, and light red hair.

Adela tightened her lips before running up to Camilla. "I missed you, Camilla," she murmured as she tightly hugged Camilla.

Camilla couldn't figure out what was wrong with her because she had come to meet Adela just the day before. Adela was unconscious, so she was not aware. Adela looked as though she hadn't seen Camilla in a while, which was regrettable.

Camilla smiled and asked, "Are you okay, Adela?"

Adela released Camilla after giving her a glance and a silent nod.

"Adela, I'm happy to learn that you're feeling better. You did not know how worried I was," but Adela interrupted her and said, "I know that you were pretty concerned and stayed with me the entire day."
