Taming The Villainesses novel Chapter 248

(EP-248.1) Caged #3

248 – Caged Bird #3

Sometimes the world could be unfair.

In favor of villains.

There was an understandable explanation for this. _{free𝑤ebnovel.com}

Let’s say there was a person who had always done bad things.

If that person did something good, whether due to a sudden change of heart or a melancholic feeling....

━Maybe they aren’t such a bad person after all?

━I didn’t know they had this side to them!

... They would often be re-evaluated.

Someone might point out that this was an exaggerated expression, but in reality, such re-evaluations frequently occurred in the world. The once-popular “bad boy” trend was a similar case.

And it was the same with Aira now.

━Oh my...! The Queen hasn’t slapped any of the maids even once this morning!

━I heard she even let off the maids who spilled water earlier!

━T-this is a scam! It’s an imposter! This must be a fake Queen!”

Things that would be considered mundane if done by someone else would receive great applause when done by Aira.

━Wh-what—! The Queen made a wreath herself...!? I can’t believe it...!

One of the servants who received the wreath made by Aira was so overwhelmed by this astonishing change that he was shaking and even shed tears.

Elga, watching this scene, scoffed and said, ‘Hmph, what a sycophant.’ But I could fully understand people’s reactions.

In the court, Aira was like a hedgehog with bristling needles, ready to bare her teeth and claws at the slightest displeasure.

You could never predict what she would do.

However, living in a foreign land had given Aira the much-needed breathing space, and unlike before, she was actually keeping the line of human common sense.

Those who had low expectations from the start were naturally brought to tears when Aira behaved like an ordinary person.

“This place is as noisy and dreary as ever.”

Of course, Aira herself slumped onto the throne, as if exhausted, after dismissing everyone. The court was silent once the crowd had left. It was to the point that my footsteps echoed softly between the pillars and the floor with every step I took.

Then, taking advantage of the atmosphere, I said to Aira.

“But the people liked it.”

“Theo, people have always loved me, the Queen.”

I don’t think that’s case...

Anyway.

The court we returned to after a long time had some changes compared to two or three months ago, but some parts remained the same.

Even in Aira’s absence, the throne was kept sparkling by the maids.
