Chapter 20 : The Villainess’s Unexpected Stalker (1)

The crazy lecture ended, and I was about to go outside.

When the Magic Tower Lord blocked my path, Eve and Lucy looked at her with wary eyes.

It seemed that they noticed something between me and the Magic Tower Lord.

“Juniors, can you give us a moment? There’s something I need to talk about with her.”

When I nodded, Eve and Lucy said that they understood and left.

All the students in the classroom left, and only the Magic Tower Lord and I were left.

Then, her prim and proper expression from just a moment ago disappeared, and she hugged me with a pleading look.

She buried her face in my chest due to our height difference.

“I missed you.”

“If you do this outside, it’s going to be difficult for me.”

As soon as I said that, she looked up at my face with pleading eyes.

“Can’t I do this…?”

“Not outside.”

With an expression of deep thought, she nodded her head, saying, “If not outside, then it’s okay inside?” along with muttering it to herself and then she separated from me.

Just as she was about to leave, saying that she’ll contact me again soon, I grabbed her wrist, and she was flustered.

“Why, what’s wrong?”

“Even if you’re leaving, you have to do what you have to do, right?”

Before she could ask what I meant, I grabbed the Magic Tower Lord’s soft butt.

Then, she made a moaning sound, and I covered her mouth with my hand.

“If you make such a sound outside, you’ll be punished, right?”

“Huuu…”

Eve and Lucy were staring intently at me with my brighter-than-ever expression.

“Do you have anything to say?”

“No.”

“No.”

When I turned my head to look at them, they answered firmly and looked at me intently.

Did it take too long?

I was just going to educate them a little, but their reaction was too good, so I went overboard…

More than that, neither the professor nor Clea have arrived.

I ran over, thinking I was late for class, but they hadn’t arrived.

Should I say I was lucky?

At that time, the teaching assistant senior opened the door and came in.

“Due to the professor’s personal reasons again today….”

If I had known it would be like this, I would have spent more time with the Magic Tower Lord, that’s a shame.

I packed my things and went out of the classroom, and when I asked about Clea’s whereabouts, they said that she was absent because she wasn’t feeling well today.

“Then let’s go visit her.”

I was worried about Clea, who was resting alone in her dormitory, so I decided to visit her and packed some porridge and snacks that she could eat easily and visited the Class B dormitory.

When I knocked on Clea’s door, there was no sound, so I was worried, and I asked the dormitory teacher for a spare key, and when I opened the door and went inside, I saw the messy living room.

To think that the lady of a duke’s family was living like this.

Even if she’s in Class B, shouldn’t they at least assign her a maid? Or even a servant….

At that time, I heard a moaning sound and went into the room, and I saw Clea, who was groaning.

Looking at how she can’t even get her mind straight, it seems serious.

As soon as I touched her forehead, I could feel the heat.

“Bring a cold towel and a towel to wipe her body.”

At my words, Eve and Lucy were moving busily.

I put the wet towel that Eve brought on her forehead and ordered them to clean the house.

“I’ll take care of Clea, so can you clean the house for me?”

“Understood.”

“Lucy, go get some medicine.”

“Yes, yes!”

After sending Eve and Lucy out, I replaced the wet towel and after a while, Clea’s fever went down and she opened her eyes a little and looked at me.

“Are you okay?”

“Why are you here…”

“I was worried, so I came.”

In order to take medicine, you need to eat food to protect your stomach.

After waking her up, telling her to eat even a little, I blew on the hot porridge and put it in her mouth, and she slowly accepted it.

After eating about half of it, Clea said that she couldn’t eat anymore.

I cleared away the porridge and wiped her mouth with a towel, and then I said that I would wipe her body, and she looked at me blankly.

“Y, you’re not doing this because you have strange thoughts, are you?”

“I’m not a bad person who would do terrible things to a sick friend.”

Was she relieved by my words? Clea nodded her head, and I unbuttoned her and took off her clothes.

I knew that they were big, but I didn’t know that it would be this much.

It seems bigger than Ruby-senpai’s…?

No, let’s have good thoughts, good thoughts.

After taking off her underwear, I wiped her body with a cold towel, and Clea moaned.

While comforting her, saying that it was okay, I wiped her body and changed her into new pajamas.

Could it be because I changed her clothes?

Clea, who looked more comfortable, took her medicine, and after making the sheet fluffy with magic, I laid her down again.

When Clea looked up at me with a blank face, I put a wet towel on her forehead and patted her, telling her to sleep, and she closed her eyes and fell asleep.

While I was holding Clea’s hand for a while, Lucy and Eve came to my side after finishing cleaning.

“Did you finish cleaning?”

“We’ve roughly finished cleaning.”

“You’ve worked hard. Can you get more porridge and medicine so that she can eat right away when she wakes up?”

After sending Eve and Lucy on an errand, I was replacing the wet towel when Clea opened her eyes again.

“Sleep more.”

When Clea looked up at me with a blank gaze and hesitated, I tilted my head and asked what was wrong, and she finally opened her mouth.

“Thank you….”

“You’re welcome.”

When she turned her head away with embarrassment, the wet towel fell.

“You have to stay still, right?”

“Ugh, I’m sorry.”

Clea, who was being obedient after I put the wet towel back on her.

She was only showing her face from the blanket, so she was trying to take the blanket off.

“You’ll get worse if you do that. Stay still with the blanket on.”

“It’s uncomfortable….”

“Alright, our Clea child. You have to listen to teacher, right?”

“Who’s the child!?”

When I grabbed Clea’s hand, who was getting angry, her face became more red.

“Are you having a fever? Your face is turning red.”

“……”

She was using the skill of cursing with her eyes that she learned from Eve, but even that looked cute.

I kissed her cheek, wishing her a good sleep, and her face turned even more red than before.

“Y-you! Wh-wh-what are you doing!?”

“It’s a magic spell to wish you good sleep.”

“D-does th-that even make sense…!”

At that time, Eve and Lucy opened the door and came in.

They tilted their heads at our situation, and when Clea, who couldn’t say anything, turned her head away with a flushed face, this time as well, the wet towel fell with a ‘thud’.

“Ah! You’re not supposed to turn your head!”

“You dreg…”

I smiled at Clea, who was mumbling while clenching her teeth, and she sighed and closed her eyes.

And after a while, I could tell that she had fallen asleep from her breathing becoming regular.

“Should we take a break while Clea is sleeping?”

“Yes.”

“Yes!”

When I went out to the living room with Eve and Lucy, I saw a sight that was 180 degrees different from when I first came in.

As expected, our Eve and Lucy are so good at cleaning.

At that time, I saw a photo album on one side.

I looked at it with curiosity and picked up the photo album and sat on the sofa and unfolded it.

There were photos of Clea when she was young.

“She was so cute when she was young…….”

While thinking of the chest I just saw, I looked at the photos, and something was off.

Something like spirit photographs were in all of the photos.

“What is this…?”

“You shouldn’t touch other people’s things without permission.”

“……”

Even while saying that, Eve and Lucy were sticking to my side and looking at the photos together.

But their expressions were gradually changing.

Eve, who had been looking at the photos for a long time, opened her mouth.

“Isn’t that you from when you were young, Miss…?”

“Huh? Me?”

“Y, yes. It’s you from when you were young, Aria-nim!?”

When I looked closely at the photos, I could see me from when I was young.

Not just one, but in all of the photos.

But, didn’t Lucy overreact just now?

When I looked at Lucy, she was staring intently at the photos.

“Aria-nim from when she was young..”

It’s scary when Lucy is like this sometimes.

She wasn’t like this in the original story, how did she change so much?

More than that, my appearance from when I was young.

When I looked at the photos again, I could see that I looked so shabby compared to how I am now.

Is it right to express it as the appearance of a child who wasn’t loved?

My appearance before I was possessed was, in short, pathetic.

The photos that were taken after I was possessed were at least decent.

So many photos of me that they filled up a thick photo album.

Eve, who was looking at the photos, carefully opened her mouth.

“As far as I know, Miss and Eclair-nim didn’t have a good relationship, but she kept these photos.”

“……”

That’s right. Clea and I barely knew each other, we weren’t very close…?

Now that I think about it, it’s creepy…

C, could it be… a, a stalker!?

Kyaaaah!
