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

449

“…Oh, if you ask me, you are certainly not suitable as a ‘good person’…”

You know me so well, big brother!

Yes, I could never be a good person. I should keep that in mind.

After a pause after saying “However”, Big Brother Albert added,

“Many of us may have failed to see the kindness in your harshness.”

Huh, what…

It was true that I was a pragmatist and that the King had assigned me to watch over Liz-san, but that didn’t make me a kind person.

I was not acting out of kindness. It was something I did for myself.

Everything I have said and done has been for myself. It was to earn points for being a Villainess.

…I wondered now if Liz-san’s watchdog role was still in place?

I was exiled from the country on my own accord, but…

I wondered if Liz-san was still in need of supervision. I think she would be fine without me.

“I am simply self-indulgent.”

I didn’t want them to get the wrong idea.

It was only an arrogant heart awaiting after the harshness. It always was and always would be.

“A selfish Villainess won’t be loved that much by the inhabitants of the impoverished village.”

“…but I did not save the impoverished village.”

I should make this clear.

I was not a righteous Hero.

Without looking away from Big Brother Albert, I continued.

“It was Uncle Will and Rebecca and the others who saved the impoverished village. And above all, Duke-sama is a hero for liberating that village. I just gave the people of that village a chance to ‘live’. It is meaningless if they do not want to reform the village themselves. I just gave them the opportunity and left the rest to them.”

If I was a saint, I would have lent a hand to make that village a better place.

But I did not do any of that. I just kept the village informed all the time.

I was going to take advantage of everything that was available. That idea still remained the same today.

The weak would be eaten by the strong.

“…Still, the villagers are grateful to Alicia.”

“Why is that?”

I frowned.

“Because Alicia gave them the most important ‘trigger’ of all.”

“Trigger…?”

“The most important factor that made that village change was Alicia. The trigger is the most important factor for change. It is no exaggeration to say that it is everything. Without Alicia, nothing would have changed; without Will-sama, Rebecca, Nate, and Duke, nothing would have happened.”

I listened to Big Brother Albert in silence.

I had nothing to refute. He was right. But what I did was nothing compared to the “liberation of the impoverished village”. That was also a fact.

“I am sure that Duke-sama will go down in history.”

I muttered vaguely, and my brother spoke in a voice that I could not hear.

“…I’m not so sure about that.”
