I’ll Become a Villainess That Will Go Down in History

Gilles (Age: 12)

Everyone rushed to Gramps’ side when his condition suddenly changed. Even the King gave up his work and came to see Gramps.

Normally, commoners were not allowed to enter the Royal Palace, but this time, only Nate and Rebecca were given special permission.

I, the King, Henry, Mel, Nate, and Rebecca were in the room.

The only sound in the room was Gramps’ ragged breathing.

I squeezed Gramps’ hand, which had become thin.

Seeing Gramps in pain, I felt like I wanted to make him feel better as soon as possible. But the worst thing of all would be to lose Gramps.

It was hard to see Gramps unable to say a word anymore. Still, I wanted to be there for him until the end.

Somewhere in the back of my mind, I knew Alicia would come.

I was certain that Alicia also wanted to come here to witness Gramps’ final moments, but she would not.

I wish I could have let Alicia meet him at his final moments….

I was certain that Alicia would have realized that Gramps was seriously ill. Still, there must have been something she had to do in the Ravaal Kingdom.

“I’m sure Alicia is fine in the Ravaal Kingdom.”

I doubted that my voice or any other sound was reaching the ears of Gramps right now. Even though I knew he didn’t hear me, I kept talking.

As I stared at Gramps, who seemed to be having a hard time even breathing deeply, I wanted him not to suffer from this pain anymore.

He looked like he was struggling to stay alive because I still wanted him to stay in this world.

“Seeing Alicia getting stronger to protect her loved ones made me want to do my best too. That’s why I was able to make a cure for Spotted Disease…Gramps, thank you for letting Alicia meet me. Thank you for living despite all the pain this country has put you through. Thank you for meeting me. …Please don’t hesitate to get a rest now.”

I said this with a slight tremble in my voice.

As soon as I finished, Gramps squeezed my hand back with what little strength he had.

“I… met… Alicia…”

Met Alicia…?

Maybe Gramps was dreaming about something. I hope it was a happy dream….

“I thought I had such a rubbish life… but it was also very interesting…”

Gramps stated in a sure voice.

Interesting seemed to sum up all of his experience so far.

With those words, Gramps quietly passed away.
