Staring at my image in the broken mirror. I may be 10 years old but I'm already 155cm tall. I look so scrawny from malnutrition. I feel my cheek bone and also my ribs. My black hair was tangled as I ran my hand through it.
I don't know why but I seem to have been reborn as a minor villainess in the world of a novel.
'All road leads to happiness ' it was a novel i fell in love with because of how simple it's premise was. It wasn't special, it was a simple love story between a fallen noble and a prince. The female lead who is the daughter of a fallen baron, a male lead who is a prince and the usual cliche villainess trying to stop them from being together.
This character i have possessed is Robelia Armand. She was the first villainess but she quickly lost her wits and took her own life when she realized her love will never be returned.
The daughter of the only duke of the arlianor empire. She was abused from childhood for having monster blood.
Being her now I can see why she did all that in the novel but I refuse to go down that path.
But first I need to take care of those who have been caring for me so dearly. It would be a crime not to repay the care they have given me.
"Haaaaaa, you are still alive? Damn monster brat. Even such a strong poison couldn't kill you, madam gisselle will be so disappointed." She just walks into the room without knocking.
"Welcome stacy, i have been waiting for you" the sun was already up so the dark room was being illuminated from a huge crack on the wall.
"What is this monster saying" she crumpled to the floor screaming as the icicle lance i threw at her shatter against the wall behind her.
"What..... what was that?"
"Shhhhhhh.... don't scream, I'm just trying to thank you for caring for me all these years." She tried to stand up but her body was stuck to the ground.
"What..... what did you do to me you monster"
"You were trying to run away, we can't have that so I cast a paralysis spell on you from your neck down." Yes that's the look i want, fear, despair.....
"Please....please... spare me" she was crying as the tears streamed down.
"Of course, killing you now would be no fun" floating her into the air as she begs for her life. I changed into a ragged looking gown as I have to look my best for the show.
I moved her to another room in the tower as she begged for her life. Too noisy, I cast a silence and barrier spell on the room as I dropped her to the ground.
"You want me to spare you? Then you need to entertain me." I float her into air again
"What are you doing?... please.... please stop this"
Using telekinesis i slowly pull on her left arm from her shoulder as she screams. The arm rips off and thuds to the ground as she screams and the blood sprays.
"Do you remember 2 years ago, because mother whipped you for breaking her teacup, you woke me up from sleep and beat me up with a stick for 2 hours breaking my left arm and leaving me bleeding on the floor"
"I'm sorry..... i'm sorry.... please...i'm so sorry" tell that to the 8 year old me that had to drag her broken arms and legs up the stairs.
I pull on her right leg from her hip as she screams in agony.
"Dont worry I won't let you die" I cast a barrier over her left shoulder to stop the bleeding.
Her leg rips off from its socket as she screams before fainting.
"I cant believe that's all it took. Kids these days are so weak, back in my days i would get beaten up and ill still be able to hike up and down a mountain, tsk...tsk..."
"Did you enjoy your nap" she opened her eyes slowly. I had frozen her upright to the wall using ice crystals. They looked like ice but aren't cold, I wouldn't want her dying from hypothermia.
"What happened, I had a bad dream" she looked around to see her arm and legs on the floor, her eyes widdend in realization as she screamed.
"Hush now or you will scare the appetizer. Lacy was it, she is your younger sister right?"
"No please..... please kill me.... leave her alone... I beg you.....please"
"Stacy.... Stacy... where are you? Her grace is asking of you"
"No....no.... lacy run away... don't come here... go away..." watching her struggle was so exciting, I thought I would be unable to take a life but I guess being half monster has removed all of my humanity and conscience.
"Stacy are you in here" she walked in and I slam the door behind her with wind magic.
"Aahhhhhhhh" she fell to the ground looking at the horror in front of her.
"Welcome appetizer, its good you could join us."
"Run away lacy..... run..... the monster has gone mad...." so noisy. I shut her mouth up with magic.
Lacy was still on the floor screaming, so I also shut her up with magic and cast paralysis on her. Why did I always just let them beat me up if I had all of this power? Also when did I learn all this magic? I have just been using it easily like breathing. I'll have to dig through my memories to know why.
"Do you both remember last winter when you couldnt get enough fire wood for your rooms? you woke me up by dragging me by the hair, throwing freezing cold water on me, stuffing sand into my mouth and locking me outside the tower all night while laughing." They made muffled sounds from their gags
"Do you remember watching me writhe in pain last night as you both wished me death?"
I float lacy up and remove her mouth gag.
"Please.....please let us go..... we are sorry" how pathetic the first thing she does is beg for her life.
"Sure I would spare your life, but you are 10 years too late for mercy and grandma taught me never to forgive abusers, I'm a good child i wouldnt want to be disobedient" I pulled with magic all 4 of her limbs as she screams. All 4 limbs gets ripped off as she collapes to the ground foaming from the mouth as the blood sprays all four directions.
Stacy's muffled screams could be heard as her head moved helplessly.
"Its almost breakfast time i should finish up here as I can't wait to see 'mother' dearest"
I walk up to stacy who was clearly in shock on the floor. I lift her by her hair as she begins to scream again.
"Dont worry it will be over in a flash" I place my left hand on her shoulder and my right hand under her chin, I apply just enough force for her head to be slowly decapitated as she screamed writhing under me.
I really am a monster, how could I be slowly ripping a human head from their shoulder and still feel nothing? After 15 seconds I could feel her head separate from her neck, her screaming stops and her head rips of clean from her neck as blood splattered all over.
I dropped stacy to the ground and lift the paralysis and gag spell.
"Noooooooo.....nooooooooo.... lacy noooooooo" she crawled slowly to her sister laying in a pool of blood headless.
"Wow... your determination and love has moved me to tears. You know what, I'll give you 1 minute, if you can crawl to the door before the time is up I'll let you go"
"You monsterrrrrr... after killing my sister..... I'll kill you.... I'll kill youuuuuuu..." she changed her direction heading to the door.
How pathetic! At the slightest hope you abandon your humanity and your beloved sister, yet you call me a monster.
She touched the door and I could see the joy on her face. I could see hope spreading all over her.
"Congratulations you made it" i clapped as her face lit up.
"Unfortunately your 1 minute was up 5 minutes ago" the blood drained from her face as she lost hope.
"You monster... you never planned to let me go... it was all a lie... "
"Where did these lazy girls go. Stacy, lacy how dare you hide here abandoning me to do all your work in the main castle."
"Madame gisselle... we are in here... the monster..... the monster..... lacy... the monster.....killed lacy ... my sister. " she sobbed as she pounded on the door with her right hand.
"Here comes the main dish" the door opened up as she stopped in her tracks taking in the scene. Slamming the door and pushing her in with wind magic.
"Welcome head maid, we have been waiting for you" she looked calm but I could see her trembling.
"Lady robelia....." she couldn't find her words, well seeing a dead body could do that to you.
"You truly are the best head maid, even with all you just walked into you still stand there strong" she jumped to the side as stacy tried to grab onto her leg with blood soaked hand.
"I should finish up with the appetizer so the main dish doesn't get jealous." Freezing her from her legs.
"Nooooo.....noooooo.... I don't want to die... you.... mon...st....er...." she grits out as she is frozen solid in a deformed block of ice. The head maid closed her eyes at the sound of the ice shattering.
"Head maid, i have a breakfast date with mother dearest. I wouldn't want to be late you see, mother doesn't like lazy people."
"What... do you need me to do my lady" she was trembling but she still managed to give a reply.
"Amazing, I've always liked smart people like you. Don't worry I won't be killing you. You were only listening to orders from mother."
"Thank you my lady"
"I need a bath and fresh clothes" I cast a magic spell on her neck. She touched the spot breathing heavily.
"My lady..... I...." she stammered as she staggered back.
"Dont worry it's just insurance, if you tell anyone of what just happened as you prepare a bath and clothes for me, your head will explode. I hope you will continue to be smart."
