Taming The Villainesses novel Chapter 227

(EP-227.1) #7

227 – Discovery #7

If you asked the people who was the true ruler of Angmar, most of them would probably say something like this.

━At the moment, it’s the Lioness Family, isn’t it?

The Angmar Family, which had ruled the world since the age of myths, fell with the defeat of the Demon King. Among the four families who brought him down, the Lioness Family became the only one enjoying prosperity.

After endless funerals, the Tarantera Family was only left with the tyrant Queen.

The Draco Family disappeared from the world.

And the Belhwak Family’s heir died, leaving behind a giant mess.

Compared to the Lioness Family, which stood firm like a roaring lion, everyone else was treading the path to downfall.

The Lioness Family had a steadfast pillar, their patriarch, Reinhardt.

And with the eldest daughter inheriting the hero’s weapon and the wise eldest son, they were guaranteed a future laced with gold.

Rumor had it that the eldest son would inherit the throne from the Spider Queen.

Thanks to this, the present Lioness Family was enjoying unprecedented prosperity since the dawn of creation.

Their power and influence were so vast that they could even count the trees in a small village. There was no secret in the world that Elganes Von Lioness, the eldest daughter of the Lioness Family, couldn’t uncover if she set her mind to it.

And Elga was a skilled weapon wielder.

Seureureuk-.

Elga stepped out of the carriage and walked in silence.

━Hey, did you just see that? Where are those swarms of imps going-. Were there always so many imps in Ark?

━I don’t know. Let’s go check it out next time. It should be fun!

The festival was riddled with people noisily chatting and laughing, but Elga’s expression remained calm and composed, more so than ever before.

She had felt this tranquility on the night before the subjugation of the barbarian chieftain. Elga’s mood now was just as cool as it was then.

‘Let’s go somewhere quiet for now.’

She needed a quiet space.

A place where she could solely focus on her intuition and inspiration.

So she went back to her room, closed the door, and made sure she wasn’t being watched or eavesdropped on.

‘Lately, it feels like someone is constantly watching me. Could there really be evil spirits...?’

No, that couldn’t be. All she could see were the birds perched outside the window, preening their wings.

“Go away, shooshoo-”

━Chichip-!

━Kiichip-!

“What? Did you just curse at me?”

━.......

The birds simply continued grooming their feathers as if nothing had happened. How foolish.

‘Looks like I’m too sensitive these days.’

Soon after, Elga drew the curtains and pulled out the bundle of documents she had hidden in her embrace.

Documents with a lion-shaped seal.

The envelope was black.

The black envelope indicated Level 0 classified documents beyond Level 1, and was ruled by the Lioness Family to destroy after reading.

With a slight tension on what was written, Elga finally opened the document after lightly breaking the seal with the sharp tip of her nail.
