Taming The Villainesses

I decided to change the subject.

“Then, what will the Lady do about the task? If you’re not feeling well, shouldn’t you just rest?”

“Task…. Is it the lecture on Dead Language?”

“Yes, it is.”

“If that’s the case, I have to go. It’s my task as the Draco Family’s Young Lady.”

“What do you mean? Why is it ‘your task’?”

Mirna got up from bed with the blanket wrapped around her body like a gown. She was certainly in a much better condition than before, though still a bit sluggish.

As Mirna put on her school uniform blouse and skirt, she slowly continued, overcoming her headache.

“Balan, she’s the culprit. She’s robbing the Draco Family’s cemetery and stealing bodies. A criminal who recklessly gives rise to the undead…!”

“Is that true?”

Professor Balan was the culprit? It was an unbelievable story, but Mirna calmly explained.

“She stole my Lich last night. I’m sure of it! I swear in the honor of the Draco Family…. But it’s okay even if you don’t believe it. Anyway, I’ll take care of this myself….”

“No, if the professor is like that, wouldn’t it be better to let others know? People are spreading the rumor that Lady Draco has gone mad and is running around wildly.”

“Unfortunately, there is no solid evidence right now. And, if I make a lot of noise, it might just scare the thief away. There’s only one reason why she hasn’t fled yet….”

“Why is that?”

“She’s definitely aiming for my body. That ƅitch wants to use this Mirna Draco’s living body to make an undead!”

‘Manipulating living people into undead?’

I wondered in my head whether that was possible. But in a world where magic and things like witchcraft existed, where would the limit lie?

In the first place, I was not even from this world, yet how did I get here?

“It’s hard to believe, I know. Hah, the Draco Family seems to be cursed with betrayal and lies. Well, it’s not something I expect you to believe anyway.”

Mirna Draco smiled self-deprecatingly. Her current appearance resembled that of Narmi guarding the cemetery alone at night.

Remembering Narmi, who had become my friend in a way, I calmly said to Mirna.

“No, I believe you.”

“…….”

Mirna stayed silent.

Maybe it was because her fever hadn’t fully gone down yet or for some other reason, but her face started turning very red.

I then continued.

“Shall we ask Queen Aira for help? I think she’ll be able to aid us if we tell her.”

“I have no desire to be indebted to Queen Tarantera. If you want to do so, that’s up to you.”

‘I see.’

Anyway, they lived in the same dorm, for single digit rankers. So I walked out the hallway and knocked on Queen Aira’s door.

The door clicked open and I could see Queen Aira lying languidly on the bed.

“My Queen, I’m sorry, but can you lend me your strength?”

“No.”

“…….”

“It’s a joke. So what’s going on?”

Then, I explained the situation to Queen Aira, who was half-asleep.

Stretch-.

After listening to the story for a while, Aira yawned and casually stretched.

“What? That’s something I can’t help with. Theo, your strength alone will suffice. A corrupt professor wouldn’t be able to beat the second smartest person in Angmar, don’t you think?”

Then she began to stroke my head and chin. The overly positive thinking made me suspect that Aira didn’t even pay much attention…

“Then I’ll sleep a little longer, you can go.”

In the end, I couldn’t get Aira’s help…

Then, there was only one option left. The one other person in the Platinum Dorm that I could depend on besides Aira.

Walking down the velvet marble hallway, I knocked on the next room, whose door had a V mark.

Dduk dduk.

“Elga-nim.”

“What?”

The door opened wide and I said to Elga who appeared beyond it.

“I hope you could lend us your strength. Me and Lady Draco might be in a pickle.”

“What are you even… Isn’t it good if that Mirna’s in trouble?”

“But, wouldn’t this be a golden opportunity to make Lady Mirna owe Elga-nim? You can never know when an opportunity like this will come again!”

I explained the current situation to Elga and suggested this at the same time.

Simply watching Mirna get fųcked, or have her owe you a debt which could be used later.

Elga was more strategic and smarter than one might think, so she naturally knew which option would be more beneficial.

“Mirna, that woman… I knew this would happen! That’s because you only believe in necromancy and don’t train yourself. What can you do now that you’ve lost your Lich? Where’s the idio† whose father’s body was stolen by a thief?”

“Does that mean you’re going to help?”

“I’m not helping, I’m making a deal. I’ve heard that the Draco Family have dragon bones left. I’m thinking of getting some. Tell this to that Mirna.”

‘Speak of the devil and he shall come.’

As it turned out, Mirna was already standing behind me as Elga said that.

Why were you two just facing each other with me in the middle?

I looked at Mirna, who probably heard all the talk. She had her eyes closed with a wrinkled forehead, as if she was having a headache.

Seeing this, Elga continued.

“The Lioness’s Golden Army is expensive. Wouldn’t it be fair to pay such a price to hire the best and most outstanding soldiers?”

“… Alright, let’s make a deal. I’ll give you the tip of a dragon’s tailbone.”

Sch.

Surprisingly, Mirna reached out her hand. Elga also showed a look of surprise, but she quickly returned the gesture and shook it.

“Don’t take that back~.”

“I won’t.”

After subjugating the Demon King Angmar, the family of dragons and lions, who had separated while constantly feuding with each other, was now forming an alliance, albeit temporarily.

And it was I, Theo Angmar, who made it happen.

Just like how the Demon King brought the families together before.

I, too, succeeded in uniting them!

This was a complete twist on the original story, filling my heart with a sense of achievement.

… But, wouldn’t it be bad if the enemies I had to overthrow and conquer began to hold hands with each other?
