When I got home, I lay right on the sofa in my living room.
Words and actions have been made to act confident, I pretended to be all over the world, but actually … I felt bad.
If Kim Saerom was thinking of making me down, her plan today was a success.
That"s what I am. I always pretended to be cool, but my inner side hurt.
It"s annoying to lie down and be depressed at all kind of miscellaneous thoughts, so I moved around.
After thinking about it, I picked up my phone and turned on the web novel that I used to read.
Today, I wanted to read a novel that would help me feel better.
I carefully studied the introduction of several novels. I also read the comments. The t.i.tle of novel that made me stop my hand is "Let Me Be Rich".
The story is about a daughter of a desperately poor viscount who lives a hard life, but a steady stream of men surrounded her.
What I found particularly appealing is the introductory phrase [Cider water/Sprite shower]¹ and the reader"s comment, "This is a work of a Villainess".
Okay. Today, I"m going to take a look at this and wash down the sweet potato² in my heart.
So, I decided to go along with the novel Let Me Be Rich.
“What the h.e.l.l! What are you doing, Villainess!”
I"m furious. My anger is burning.
Reading the novel, I felt like I was swallowing sweet potatoes without water, rather than washing them down.
Of course, the novel was cider-materials, like the author"s introduction. Only for this truly unrealistic woman.
She is the only daughter of a Duke, the one of two pillars supporting the Empire, who runs the top of continent and very wealthy. She"s also good looking. Smart. Her body is great.
Unlike the author"s introduction, the all-in-one villainess was doing nothing in the novel.
She was begging for love by hanging herself on a handsome and talented Crown Prince, the male main character. She"s excited about sarcastic goodness and doesn"t run out of the way.
She"s being defeated by a sub-character, when it should be easy enough to beat the main character by eating up her family who touches her father"s business!
Although she did a great deal of evil in the novel, but there is nothing in Korea like that.
If you have money and power, there"s nothing you can"t do, Sis!
Grab her hair, get her dress dirty, blackmail her, and ask the a.s.sa.s.sin guild to… No, is there any way to torture a woman except doing bad things?
Why were you born in such a good environment and act like a man is everything?
She"s not thinking about living well for herself.
Why were you born with that huge diamond spoon in your mouth when you couldn"t wield it properly!
I prayed that the villainess will do her best with her power, and I keep pressing the next chapter, but I don"t see what I expected.
“No, you were born in a rich, powerful house so why you"re just being beaten by the heroine!”
Before I knew it, I began to be more concerned with the villainess who was going to receive sweet potatoes instead of the heroine walking on the cider flower path.
“What kind of man is she crying about!”
I was annoyed. To see a man who was engaged to the villainess but still clinging to the heroine.
I don"t know anything. I"m naive.
I"m glad you helped me. The princess was angry at the sight of the heroine holding the prince"s hand.
I felt like the couple who had just bothered and smothered me in anger were showing up and putting up the medicine.
The 30-years-old Kim Saerom, who smiled innocently as if she didn"t know anything and handed me an invitation, looked like the heroine.
Han Beomjun who met another woman in the middle of dating me, and the Crown Prince who met the heroine even though he had a fiancée, also seemed to overlap.
The villainess Raylene and me also felt similar.
Is that why I"m more concerned about her?
I didn"t see it until the end and pressed the home b.u.t.ton on my cell phone. No longer read it, the villainess seemed to be beaten by the heroine without even using what she had. And isn"t her fate was going to end up on the death row like any other villainess?
I got up from the sofa, took off all the clothes I wore when I went out and headed for the bathroom.
What if I were the Villainess?
I"ll kick that man"s a.s.s for sure.
How dare you disregard the villainess, a woman of the family who supporting the Imperial Palace.
When people behave carelessly, they are not worth looking at.
And then I would tell them to play nice with each other, and I"m going to live happily with the excess money.
I want to try. Spend my money to the fullest.
Especially I wanted to try it. I"ll pay everything for there to here.
Should I meet a guy? A guy who listens to me carefully, who"s warm only to me, and he"s kind and doesn"t yell at me. Most of all, someone who doesn"t betray me.
You must have power, wouldn"t it be possible to get someone with a good face and a lot of money?
“There"s no way in the world that such person exists.”
After bathing, I lay down on the sofa again. I didn"t have the mood to do anything.
I fell asleep, still leaving myself in the towel.
Sleep was deep and sweet. I felt like I was sinking.
As if never to wake up again.
Today, the texture of the bedclothes felt so good to me. The mattresses seem to be exceptionally fluffy, too. I don"t want to get up.
I thought I would feel so crushed on the sofa, but I felt like I was getting a lot of sleep.
I don"t want to get up because it"s so warm inside the blanket.
Suddenly, I felt a sensation of alienation in it. Wait, why am I in the blanket? I"m sure I was on the sofa.
I live alone in my house, so there"s no way anyone would have taken me to bed, and no one would have come and gone by because my parents were already died….
I"m scared of this.
I opened my eyes carefully and took a quick look at the surrounding.
“Where am I….”
Who kidnapped me while I was asleep? What is this luxurious interior? Where is this hotel? The bed is so big!
My hair dropped over my body as I scrambled to get up. It"s a black hair.
This hair was different from my brown hair, which always stuck to bobbed short. As if dyed, the color is deep and rich in quality.
My hair isn"t this long? This is a hair that"s been growing for years?
I crept out of the bed, terrified. Once there was no one in the room.
I don"t know what kind of people who took me to this luxury place, but that person must be quite a pervert. I have a shiny wig on my head and a sky-blue princess" pajamas.
I looked around to see if there was an escape hatch or something I could contact. However, no matter how many times I looked around, I could only see that this room was a replica of medieval European style.
As I stepped forward to explore more in earnest, I saw a large full-body mirror.
The pervert didn"t do something weird again, right?
I looked around and approach the mirror to see if I miss anything.
And I could see it.
A gorgeous black-haired beauty, who looks completely different from my face, was looking at me.
The woman in the mirror was beautiful with a long hair like ebony and mysterious violet eyes. They have large yet unburdened eyes. It seemed attractive to have a slightly raised end of long eyelashes.
Neither the features on her face were excessive nor lacking. This face moved my most ideal face in my dream to ideal position. It looked even more beautiful.
It was the image that I imagined when I made a character in the game. It has perfect features and figure that can never be found in the real world.
The question is, why is that G.o.ddess beyond the mirror I see? Is she the mirror girl?
Looking behind the mirror, there is only a support, and the wall is empty.
When I came back to the mirror, the woman in there is looking at me with her palm out above her eyes.
No, that is what I"m doing right now.
T/N: I have not learned how to do footnotes yet, I"m sorry. So this is the explanation:
¹. [사이다물/스프라이트샤워] it"s a slang for satisfying feeling. 사이다 is originally a word for "Sprite" in Korea. You know, when your stomach feels heavy, sprite helps you to be relieved and feel refreshing. Just like this, when you have something that makes you uncomfortable and feel pressured, if you say your complaints straight forward or make an action, you call it "사이다(cider)."
². 고구마 / Sweet potato = frustrating situation. It it because when you eat sweet potato, it makes you thirsty and stuffy.
