A Sweet Girl Won't Be Fooled By The Villainess - [Vol. 1] Chapter 70
[Vol. 1] Chapter 70: Can I Have Her?
“Ifia, if it weren’t for your friends notifying me, I wouldn’t have known that your campus life is so colorful.”
Amelia’s expression was calm, showing no signs of anger. She even spoke with a teasing tone, as if it were just casual chit-chat as usual.
Her beautiful purple eyes squinted slightly, accompanied by a smirk at the corner of her mouth, making Ifia feel uneasy for some reason. The danger warning was ringing incessantly.
Lucy and Jessica had really gotten her into trouble!
With Amelia’s appearance, Lucy and Jessica voluntarily stepped aside, leaving the stage to the two of them. So, Ifia, facing the pressure alone, stood obediently as if she were a primary school student standing in punishment.
She didn’t dare to act smug in front of Amelia and could only restrain her satisfaction, defensively explaining, “Amelia, I just didn’t want you to worry. Those guys were too arrogant. Not personally seeking revenge would leave a lingering hatred in my heart.”
Amelia observed Ifia’s subconscious movements with her fingers and felt somewhat helpless. She liked Ifia’s lively nature, so she couldn’t turn her into a doll or confine her to the realm of the Abyss.
However, Ifia sometimes got too lively, and being naive, she easily got into dangerous situations.
“I worry about you a lot, Ifia.”
After a sigh from Amelia, Ifia became a bit uneasy.
Seeing Ifia starting to panic, Amelia continued, “If you encounter such a situation again, I hope I’ll be the first one you inform. Ifia, I won’t restrict your actions, I just want to ensure your safety.”
After saying this, Amelia took Ifia’s hands, her face filled with sincerity.
It seemed to say, ‘Look, we’re lifelong friends, don’t hesitate.’
Unfortunately, Ifia was someone who responded better to gentle words than to harsh ones. If Amelia continued to blame her forcefully, Ifia wouldn’t feel as uncomfortable as she did now. But hearing Amelia express concern for her completely defeated Ifia. She wasn’t the type to be stubborn and unyielding.
“Amelia, I was wrong. I won’t show off my strength like that again.”
“Oh, my dear Ifia, you’re not right! I know you can handle things on your own, but please give me a chance to show my concern. Otherwise, as your friend, I really can’t be of any help!”
This time, the corners of Amelia’s mouth lifted, dispelling the oppressive atmosphere.
With the issue that needed advice resolved, now it was time to talk about other things…
Suddenly, seemingly casually, Amelia said, “Your two friends are really nice. They came to the third-year area to find me out of concern for your safety. You guys have such a good relationship.”
As she spoke, her dark purple eyes were staring at Ifia, like a beast confined by chains about to break free.
At this moment, Ifia felt fortunate for successfully avoiding trouble and immediately nodded in agreement. She genuinely felt lucky to have met Lucy and Jessica.
The system, silently monitoring the situation, wished it could grab the foolish host’s shoulders and shake her vigorously, urging her to raise her emotional intelligence!
Was nodding the appropriate response now?
The villainess is getting angry!
Next, let’s deal with the foolish host first before handling the rest…
“Lucy and Jessica are indeed wonderful, but Amelia, you are my best friend.”
“Best friend?”
“Yeah, my only best friend, no one can compare to you.”
However, the system’s worried scenario did not unfold. Ifia’s words, spoken so naturally, evidently pleased Amelia, dissipating her anger instead of letting it accumulate further. When the mood improved, grievances were no longer held.
In an instant, the rain cleared, and the sky brightened.
This left the system shocked as it looked at Ifia. Suddenly, it felt like this host was not just a foolish beauty but also had some inherent qualities of a natural sea king.
Invisible charm is the most deadly.
“Ifia, I’m glad to be the only one in your heart. In that case, as a token of gratitude for your friends who helped you, how about inviting them to my place as guests!”
Hearing the invitation, Ifia hesitated a bit.
Amelia had not invited others over before, and breaking that norm for her sake might be too troublesome for Amelia.
Seeming to understand Ifia’s thoughts, Amelia gently held her hand and, as Ifia looked over, immediately said, “Don’t think too much. Just consider it a one-time dinner invitation.”
“Alright, I’ll go ask them.”
Amelia’s generosity made Ifia stop hesitating. She turned to ask Lucy and Jessica for their opinions and naturally received enthusiastic nods as a response.
“Lucy, pinch me, I must be dreaming! We’re actually going to Miss Barlen’s residence as guests. Oh my goodness, Mom, I’ve made it!”
“Jessica, you’re not dreaming because I was invited too~”
And so, Ifia, accompanied by her excited two friends, boarded Amelia’s carriage and arrived at the mansion.
Rather than having Chef Jeff prepare dinner, Ifia decided to take matters into her own hands.
After all, whether it was Amelia, Lucy, or Jessica, they were all busy and worried because of her. There was no need for excessive thanks, let delicious food express gratitude!
Smoothly arriving at the mansion, the head maid and the other maids greeted the guests. Later, they heard Jessica’s frequent exclamations, with Lucy quietly advising her to stay calm. When the butler led them to the reception room, a pastry chef had already wheeled in a cart full of various desserts.
As Jessica and Lucy’s eyes gleamed at the sight of the desserts, Amelia leaned close to Ifia and whispered softly in her ear, “Ifia, are you going to cook yourself?”
“Yes.”
“This time, don’t chase me out of the kitchen. I want to cook with you, it will be fun for sure.”
Ifia resisted the urge to rub her ears. Every time Amelia spoke by her ear, her heart would unconsciously speed up, accompanied by a tingling sensation. At this moment, even speaking felt somewhat trance-like.
“If you don’t mind the cooking fumes, then let’s do it together!”
After a few words confirmed the plan, just as Ifia was about to speak to Jessica, who was happily enjoying the desserts, the previously withdrawn butler, Heber, suddenly appeared.
He bowed to Amelia and then said, “Miss Barlen, there’s a guest for you. She said her name is…”
Heber seemed to be incoherent as if he were drugged, forgetting his words. At that moment, a sweet laughter echoed behind him.
“Oh, Barlen, long time no see!”
Soon after, a woman in a black low-cut tight-fitting long dress walked out from behind the butler. The tightly cinched waist made her hips more exaggerated, and her snow-white ample bosom seemed ready to burst out with every step. With a seductive and glamorous face, she wore a playful smile, giving off a feeling of unfulfilled desire.
Unlike Amelia’s aloofness, this woman was like a dazzling seductress.
“Oh my, there are still little kids here, how rare.”
The glamorous woman’s eyes lit up when she saw Ifia and the others. Her gaze immediately focused on the most beautiful Ifia, appreciating the cute and sweet face, exactly the type she liked!
Unexpectedly, there was an unexpected delight on this visit!
“Taroumati, don’t disturb my guests. Go somewhere else to talk.”
When Taroumati wanted to approach and strike up a conversation, Amelia preemptively stopped her, apologizing to Ifia and the others.
After giving Ifia a few more instructions, Amelia told her that she could go for a walk if she was bored. Then, she practically dragged Taroumati out the door.
As soon as she turned around, Amelia’s expression changed, and her violet eyes turned cold.
She didn’t immediately pay attention to Taroumati.
After distancing themselves from the reception room, as an uninvited guest, Taroumati showed no signs of embarrassment. Instead, she smiled seductively and spoke to Amelia, “Dear Ahriman, being so cold to an old friend we haven’t seen in a long time, that won’t do~”
“That lovely girl looks so sweet, I really want to take a lick and taste her~”
Saying this, Taroumati couldn’t help but stick out her tongue, licking her lips with a snake-like, pointed, forked tongue, displaying a hungry and thirsty expression.
She couldn’t wait to immediately take the human girl home and lavish her with affection.
“Her name is Ifia, right? What a lovely name. Can I have her? Rest assured, I’ll…”
As Taroumati’s words continued to spill out, Amelia, who was walking ahead, stopped in her tracks. She turned around, looked at Taroumati, who still hadn’t stopped talking, and smiled as she asked, “Could you repeat that?”
At the same time, Amelia’s purple eyes quickly turned blood red. The demonic realm created by her magic opened wide, and the wailing of countless souls rang out.
TL Note:
Taroumati: A female demon whose name means “apostasy.” She lurks in the hearts of men. She is an ally of the great god Ahriman.
