Villain Princess.
Chapter 102: Tears

Chapter 102: Tears

Aurora buried her face in her hand.

She’s afraid.

She’s worried.

She’s angry.

Various emotions were mixed together and Aurora knew very well that it was inevitable. But even so, she felt ashamed deep in her heart.

She might be only 13 years old girl, but Aurora knew very well that she was not the same as other people. She’s the duke’s daughter, the crown princess, the future queen, and also someone with heavy responsibility on her shoulder.

She couldn’t show her weakness.

No...

She’s not allowed to have any weakness.

Because once she has any, there might be others who would take advantage of her and brought her down.

Aurora cried silently.

She didn’t dare to let her voice out because she knew very well that there were still others around her. Even if she trusted them to a certain degree, Aurora had no intention to let them know about her weakness.

No, not even her trusted attendants could know.

Aurora would rather not let anyone knew about it in her entire life. It would be for the best if she could erase this weakness instead.

...

At night, Les came to Aurora while carrying a box. "Miss, your injury has been delayed for a long time."

Injury?

Aurora looked at her arm that was injured and nodded at Les, letting Les treat her injury. They would reach the city soon and could buy some food there.

Their supplies were basically destroyed in that attack.

Thankfully, the negotiation contracts and so on were all safe. They were still within the box that Aurora carried with her.

The injury was not deep and Les quickly cleaned it up and bandaged it.

"Miss, please tell me if there’s any other injury?" Les asked.

Aurora looked at Les and then shook her head. "I’m not injured."

She couldn’t even feel the pain from the bruises that she had suffered. Thinking about it, Aurora wanted to sneer.

Her swordsmanship practice has allowed her to become stronger and this kind of injury was nothing to her. It was not like she was not injured when she was practicing on daily basis.

Aurora couldn’t even call these injuries hurt anymore.

Anyway, they would heal with time.

"You may go now."

"Yes, Miss."

They had entered the city and picked one inn to stay for the night. Mr. Wren went out to gather more supplies while Aurora stayed in the room to rest.

After a few hours, Aurora had calmed down.

She looked at the ceiling above her and her thoughts went to the letter that she found in the hut. Even if it could be confirmed that there were some people who wanted to kill her, but she knew the name written there was only the attendant.

In other words, it was not the master at all.

Even if the attendant was killed, it would not affect the master behind the scenes too much.

Who knew how many of these attendants did the other party have.

Aurora knew that as well.

So she had to use this incident to the fullest for her own benefit and not to let others take advantage of her.

It was just...

’It’s really tricky.’

This kind of incident was really easy to be used to make unfounded rumors and the likes. Aurora also couldn’t guarantee that she wouldn’t be targeted by others through this incident in the future.

But even if they were to use this incident... who would more likely to use it?

Aurora’s brain was turning fast, thinking about various possibilities and other things that might happen in the future.

Even if she felt the incident was really bad...

But Aurora didn’t want to give up so easily.

She still has her life and there might be other ways she could use for her own goals. Perhaps, she could even make a good use of it.

For now, she should think and plan various plans first.

She still has a few days before she reached the Yellow Kingdom’s Capital and had to face with her parents.

...

Outside the inn’s door, Prince Lester was standing guard.

He was expressionless and there was not even the slightest bit of emotion could be seen from him.

From the distance, he looked like a loyal dog who was guarding his master.

Time passed quietly.

Even when Aurora had fallen asleep, Prince Lester was still standing there, guarding at all times. If there was even the slightest bit of noise, he would be able to hear it.

Tep.

Prince Lester raised his head and saw William came to him. While he was guarding here, William was resting in his own room.

"It’s my turn," William said.

Without other knights present, the task of guarding Aurora could only be divided by the two of them.

Besides, after seeing what Aurora did to the knights before, they had some guesses that the knights have bad intention towards Aurora. They would not trust other people to guard Aurora aside from themselves.

Prince Lester nodded at William and intended to rest. As much as he wanted to stay here all night long, he also needed to rest. His young and weak body wouldn’t be able to stand it if he were to stay here the entire time.

"Do you have to work so hard?" William suddenly asked.

Prince Lester stopped in his track and looked at William.

Perhaps, in William’s eyes, Prince Lester had a much better choice and didn’t have to follow Aurora. Moreover, after this incident, it was very likely for Aurora to face many other dangers in the future.

At that time, it was clear that they would have to face even more danger.

"I follow Miss’s order," Prince Lester replied.

William arched his eyebrows and then shook his head. "That’s not my question."

Prince Lester was silent for a while and turned his body around to head to his room. As he walked away, he leave a sentence, "Do I have a reason not to?"
