I, the Villain, Want to Save Myself, But the Yandere Heroines Disagree -
Chapter 91 - Anxiety Leads to Disorder
“Your Highness the Princess, His Majesty has agreed to let Young Master Orson temporarily stay in your chambers.”
At this moment, the guard that Elsa had sent to report to Odysseus also returned. He respectfully brought back Odysseus’s reply.
Elsa nodded with satisfaction.
“I understand. You may leave now. Also, have someone clean up a room for Young Master Orson to live in. Otherwise, I won’t have anywhere to stay.”
“As you command,” the guard heard this and nodded.
“Alright,” Elsa said this, turning to look at Orson, “Guess when she will arrive?”
“It shouldn’t be long, if she knows the news.”
Orson was sitting on the bed reading a book, and replied casually.
After a few minutes, a maid walked in.
“Your Highness the Princess, Lady Olivia requests an audience at the entrance of the chambers.”
“Since His Majesty has allowed her in, why should I stop her?” Elsa said this, raising an eyebrow at the maid. “Furthermore, she is Young Master Orson’s fiancée. Do you still need to request my permission for this kind of matter?”
“Apologies, Your Highness the Princess. It was my oversight,” the maid heard this and quickly bowed her head in apology, then hurried out.
Half a minute later, a hurried footsteps sounded from outside the door.
The door was pushed open.
Olivia’s figure appeared before Orson. She was only wearing a coat over her regular indoor clothes. It seemed she had rushed over as soon as she heard the news of Orson waking up, without even changing into clothes suitable for an audience with the Emperor.
She quickly scanned the room, and then immediately saw Orson lying on the bed reading a book.
At this moment, Orson had also put down the book and turned to look at Olivia.
“Olivia, you’re here?”
Olivia said nothing. She walked directly to the side of the bed, squatted down, and looked at Orson with concern.
“Orson, I heard you were attacked during the investigation, is that right...”
“Mm.” Orson nodded, then revealed a smile.
“It’s alright, Olivia. See? I’m fine now.”
Saying this, as if to reassure Olivia, Orson patted his chest.
“Now I just need to rest and recover. It’s a good opportunity to take a break. No one here will threaten my life.”
“Mm, that’s for the best,” Olivia saw that Orson was alright, and finally felt relieved.
But she was still filled with lingering fear.
She heard that someone just happened to pass by and saved Orson. If that person hadn’t passed by at that time, would Orson have died on the spot?
Olivia didn’t dare to think that way. If Orson had disappeared, she would definitely not be rational either.
In that way, she could also understand why the Duke of Orleans’ side repeatedly questioned the Imperial Family’s investigation.
“Promise me, you won’t do such risky things again, alright?”
Olivia composed herself, and then spoke.
“Don’t worry. I won’t do that again in the future.”
The two of them looked at each other for a long time. Olivia suddenly closed her eyes and leaned her head towards Orson’s face.
Just as the two were about to touch, a clear cough sounded from the side.
“Cough, cough.”
At this moment, the two of them realized that they were currently in Elsa’s room. It was not very appropriate for them to do this.
“In any case, Olivia, you can see now that Orson is alright. Can you feel at ease?”
“Mm, thank you, Your Highness the Princess, for saving him,” Olivia said politely.
However, with Elsa interrupting them like this, the romantic atmosphere that had been developing between them also dissipated. After chatting for a while longer, Olivia ultimately left first.
...
On the other side, within the Imperial Academy.
If there was anywhere safe in Saint Roland City besides the Imperial Palace, the Imperial Academy could definitely be ranked high.
Leaving aside the abilities of the Imperial Academy’s instructors, just the security guards at the entrance could give ordinary invaders a hard time.
At this moment, in the dormitory next to Orson’s, Laina’s dormitory.
Late at night, Laina darted out from the nearby woods, then quietly walked towards her room.
As soon as she stepped into the house, Laina felt something was wrong. Subsequently, she was indeed lifted up by the back of her neck by a pair of hands.
“Hey! Let go of me! I can hit people when I get angry!” Laina said, flailing her arms and legs.
“Then tell me what you’ve been doing all day,” A cold voice came from behind her.
“Orson entrusted you to me and asked me to take good care of you. As a result, you ran off. How am I supposed to explain this to Orson?”
“I... I can do something if I want to!” Laina said this, struggled a few times, and broke free from Lianca. She then turned around and looked at her.
“Furthermore, I have already asked the teacher for leave, and the leave slip has been approved. Can’t I go out?”
“But it is very dangerous outside now,” Lianca quickly said. “Although you are very powerful, you don’t have much combat experience, after all.”
“But I’m fine now, aren’t I...” Laina muttered softly.
“Hmm?”
“No, no. What I mean is, thank you, Sister Lianca, for your concern. I will definitely inform you of my itinerary next time, Sister Lianca.”
“Mm,” Lianca nodded with satisfaction. “Alright then, I will go back first. Get some rest early. You have class tomorrow.”
Although the order in Saint Roland City had become chaotic, the Imperial Academy still maintained normal teaching order. This was truly commendable.
“Alright~ Then I’ll rest now~” Laina said this, yawned, and then went upstairs.
Lianca looked at Laina’s retreating figure and fell into thought.
Suddenly, she lowered her head and saw the shoes Laina had taken off after entering the door.
The heels of a pair of brown boots were stained with a lot of mud.
“That’s strange. Did Laina go out for a picnic?” Lianca muttered to herself in confusion, then left.
...
On the other side, Celineina returned to her office.
She had gone to the Imperial Palace, but was directly stopped because she was not a noble.
She couldn’t apply for permission to enter the Imperial Palace for a while. Celineina was just standing there worrying helplessly, so she returned to her trading company office first.
“Lorenzo, help me contact all the mercenary groups you can reach. Search all over the woods outside the city and see if you can find any traces of the person who injured Orson.”
“Begging your pardon, President,” Lorenzo stepped forward at this moment and stopped Celineina. “As the saying goes, anxiety leads to disorder. Since Young Master Orson is alright now, we don’t need to be so anxious. The most pressing matter should be to take care of our own affairs. President, you should quickly return to attend the commercial conference. I will help you handle these matters.”
“...No, Lorenzo. I want to handle this matter myself,” Celineina said this, refusing Lorenzo’s suggestion. “In any case, please help me contact the mercenary groups first. Even if they are not useful here, Orson will always have a time when he can use them.”
