The Villainess is Tired of Everything

Even as a young boy, Ryan thought the man before him was the most beautiful person he had ever seen. Looking back now, the man was still just a boy himself.

“Play with me!”

At Ryan's cheerful request, the man stayed silent for a moment, then ruffled Ryan’s hair and muttered, “This damn brat….”

It was the first time anyone had spoken to Ryan in such a vulgar manner, and he found it shocking.

The man fixed his gaze on Ryan, calling him by name.

“Forget everything you’ve seen here. Never come to this palace again. That’s the only way you’ll survive.”

That was the last memory he had of the encounter.

Having a memory return so suddenly is impossible.

It’s more likely that the man somehow revived Ryan’s memory.

If this man truly lived in the imperial palace, it meant he possessed valuable abilities. And if he lived in the abandoned palace...

It had to be Emperor Kies’s doing.

It was clear why the emperor would want to use him.@@novelbin@@

“…So you have a brainwashing ability.”

To control others was an immensely desirable power.

However, how Emperor Kies managed to control such a willful individual was puzzling. The man’s face was etched with hatred.

'That's why he wanted to dispose of him.'

The recent talk about dealing with the group of mages was likely an excuse.

Passing down the Saizen Palace, where the man lived, was a means to destroy all evidence.
