A Sweet Girl Won't Be Fooled By The Villainess - [Vol. 4] Chapter 104

[Vol. 4] Chapter 104: Who Bumps into Whom is Unlucky

Misfortune!!!

Ifia sighed in frustration, letting the carriage curtain fall, blocking the view outside along with Prince Carloy’s annoying face.

Returning from the Camus Territory took quite some time, and upon arriving in the long-unseen Darwa City, Ifia had plans to explore with Amelia to alleviate the fatigue from the extended carriage ride.

However, the plan was messed up.

Just by observing Prince Carloy squatting at the city gate in search of someone, Ifia could tell he was up to no good.

Considering how they outsmarted Kurt at the auction and emptied the pocket of the Rosward Royal Family, it wasn’t hard to guess Carloy’s intentions. He was here to ambush them!

Ifia’s puffed-up expression resembled an inflated pufferfish. Amelia, upon seeing her, couldn’t help but laugh. She raised her hand to gently pinch Ifia’s cheek, prompting Ifia to shoot her an angry look, putting an end to the “assault.”

Really!

Amelia was always pinching her face!

Besides, was it the time to be pinching faces?

We should have been figuring out how to chase away Prince Carloy!

However, Ifia’s attempt at a fierce glare had no effect. She huffed in frustration, then raised her hands to grab Amelia’s hands, preventing her from moving.

In response, Amelia instinctively shifted, inadvertently touching Ifia’s chest, a soft, dough-like sensation.

Concerned about causing discomfort, Amelia refrained from making any sudden movements. Instead, this unexpected touch emboldened Ifia, who took advantage of the situation and playfully pinched Amelia’s cheek with a mischievous grin.

“Hehe, feels really nice!”

Ifia declared triumphantly, leaving Amelia in a bemused state. Ifia’s peculiar desire for dominance led her to such childlike antics.

Deciding not to indulge further in Ifia’s playful antics, Amelia raised her hand to gently hold Ifia in place, preventing her from mischief.

She then patiently explained, “Don’t worry, Prince Carloy won’t do anything to us. He’s waiting at the city gate to quickly complete the signing of the auction contract. It’s just to prevent any delays, you know, business.”

“……”

Regarding the matter of contract signing.

Originally, in the Darwa City, Duke Barlen was in charge, and there was no need for Amelia’s signature. However, the problem arose when Duke Barlen, a few days prior, set off on a new route with a merchant ship.

The Rosward royal family was unable to find anyone to sign the contract. They could only wait for Amelia Barlen to return to the city.

It wasn’t a significant issue, just a bit troublesome, but the royal family was too eager. They couldn’t wait to get their hands on the magical plants.

They wished to obtain the magical plants as soon as possible. However, Amelia Barlen did not carry the auction’s magical plants with them. Instead, they arranged for Captain Fern, the leader of the escort team, to march secretly and deliver the magical plants to the main residence of the Barlen family.

Afterward, the plants would be distributed to other families according to the contract. So, Prince Carloy and others were waiting in vain. Even if the contract was signed, they wouldn’t immediately get the magical plants.

“I’ve never seen someone willingly give money like a fool.”

Eighty-five million gold coins were given just like that. Ifia greatly envied the wealth of the royal family.

Of course, once this money was transferred to Amelia, her envy turned into admiration. Her Amelia was so capable, a master at accumulating wealth!

“Since you don’t want to see him, I’ll make it quick. We’ll return home as soon as the documents are signed.”

Amelia raised her hand and gently touched Ifia’s smooth black hair. She knew that Ifia and Prince Carloy didn’t get along, so after a few words, she immediately got off the carriage and walked towards the direction of Prince Carloy.

The plan had not started yet, as the magical plants had not been delivered to the royal family. This time, she was determined to stir up the imperial capital of the Sith Empire and turn it upside down. That would be interesting.

Ifia couldn’t be bothered to look at Prince Carloy’s proud face again. She stayed inside the carriage and took out a black bracelet from her pocket. It was a special bracelet transformed from the misfortune vines in the underground ice cave in the Camus territory.

During their previous adventure in Camus, the bracelet that was securely worn on her wrist unexpectedly fell off without any warning. If it weren’t for Amelia’s attentiveness, it would have been lost.

It was strange that ever since she put on the misfortune vines as a bracelet, it felt like she was stuck with an unremovable adhesive bandage. No matter how hard Ifia tried to shake it off, the special bracelet remained firmly in place.

When the time came, it would suddenly fall off, catching people off guard. Amelia had instructed Ifia to take good care of the misfortune vine bracelet. When they returned to Darwa City, she would use it to meet Saint Tiffany, as it had great uses.

Because the misfortune vines were magical plants, Ifia was well aware of their importance. However, could summoning demons really be done simply by wielding this special bracelet?

Ifia flipped and turned the black bracelet, trying to find any unusual features, but the results were inconclusive. The bracelet seemed to be made of black wood and was quite rough, lacking any patterns.

However, Ifia wondered if she was overthinking it. Ever since the black bracelet naturally slipped from her hand, various indescribable desires have rapidly diminished.

Though she couldn’t claim to be completely unaffected. Now, it was not as intense as before. When she put on the bracelet, she couldn’t help but wish to pounce on Amelia right then and there. Well, looking back, it seemed a bit absurd, but maybe Amelia found it amusing!

It was like a special game between friends, and Ifia, true to her nature, kept up a tough facade.

Instead of scrutinizing the black bracelet further, she slowly approached the window of the carriage, lifted a corner of the curtain, and sneakily peered outside.

Why hasn’t Amelia returned yet?!

………………………………………..

“Amelia Barlen, I’ve been waiting for you for a long time. Didn’t you say you’d arrive in the morning? It’s already afternoon!”

After Amelia got off the carriage, her cold demeanor and beautiful appearance stood out in the crowd, catching Prince Carloy’s attention easily. When the infuriated Prince Carloy approached, Amelia remained indifferent.

Amelia glanced at Prince Carloy and said with a half-smile, “I don’t recall any rule stating that a duke’s daughter must inform His Royal Highness about her travels.”

“Besides, we didn’t agree on a specific time, it’s all your assumption.”

In fact, Amelia and Ifia’s itinerary didn’t require reporting to anyone.

The rush of the Rosward royal family was merely to prevent complications that might arise if they delayed signing the contract.

Amelia Barlen maintained her indifferent attitude. Prince Carloy, standing beside her, felt suffocated and quickly took out the contract.

At the same time, he abruptly changed the subject, “It’s my impatience. Let’s sign the auction contract now!”

Considering Ifia was still waiting in the carriage, Amelia refrained from further mockery.

She quickly signed the auction contract, and with the legally binding document in hand, Prince Carloy’s joy was evident.

With the magical plants now in his possession, he looked forward to successfully summoning demons to deal with the detestable Barlen family!
