I’ll Become a Villainess That Will Go Down in History-Chapter 487
Duke-sama escorted me home in a horse-drawn carriage.
It was then that I told him about a book I found in the mansion.
The spooky book that I could never open no matter how hard I tried.
Duke-sama listened intently to my story. The fact that it would not open with my magic power meant that someone stronger than me had cast a spell on the book.
Not to be overconfident, but my magic power is quite top level. It even surpassed the level of my brothers…
“Was it locked?”
“Yes.”
Duke-sama was thinking about something while frowning.
We had been in a sweet mood earlier, but we immediately went into this mode when we were dealing with things like this.
Well, maybe this was just typical for the both of us. We would always think about and solve the problems facing us. That was the fun part.
There was a shared awareness between us.
“Does this remind you of anything?”
I asked, looking at Duke-sama.
“Yeah. Although I’m not certain… I’ll visit the Williams house again tomorrow.”

“Duke-sama’s guess might be right on the mark, so I’ll be looking forward to it.”
I smiled as I said so.
Duke-sama was always the one who always solved something. I find myself hoping, even though he tells me not to get my hopes up.
“That book came out of nowhere, didn’t it?”
“Yes. I am aware of the books in our house. And there’s no way I wouldn’t have noticed a book with such powerful magic.”
“…Is it possible that they appeared because of your uncle’s death?”
“That’s…”
I was at a loss for words.
It was not impossible. Uncle Will might actually do something like that…
While I was thinking about that, the carriage stopped.
“I’ll check on that book again, for now.”
I said and got out of the carriage.
“I’ll see if I can find out something about it on my own.”
“Alright, I’ll check it out again tomorrow.”
“Un.”
I stepped back off the carriage and bowed toward Duke-sama.
When I looked up, Duke-sama gently brushed my bangs away with his hand and kissed me on the forehead.
…A surprise attack!
How impatient! This prince!
I didn’t realize that he was still in his sweet mode.
“See you later, Alicia.”
I saw off Duke-sama’s carriage in a daze.
