Taming The Villainesses novel Chapter 85

(EP-85.1) Club #4

085 – Adventure Club #4

─Can you hear the song of the people?

─The song of ‘wrath’-.

‘No, no!’

I quickly closed the window which immediately got hit by a stone. Someone also banged an axe on the door.

Kwajik, Kwajik-!

I blocked the door using the bookshelves and desk, just to prevent people from entering.

—Theo Gospel, pay for your sins!

But in the end, people poured in like flowing water.

I struggled with my arms and legs and fought back, but it was not easy for my thin body to shake off numerous hands.

─Hieek...!!!

I was eventually crucified and lifted high up. People then promptly threw stones and curses at me.

—Don’t worry, you Demon Monk bas†ard, your Queen and other nobles will join you soon!

I turned my head at the people’s words and saw several more crosses rising next to me. They were Aira, Elga, Mirna and Marmar...

─Why am I punished... ! Marmar did nothing wrong...! Crucifixing me is Imp-phobic...!

‘... Marmar?’

Why was Marmar on a cross?

Come to think of it, something was off. Why was there a revolution? Where was I? Wasn’t I in Ark?

‘Wait, what?’

All of a sudden, people’s expressions twisted and everything went silent. Their staring eyes and the eerie quietness gave me goosebumps.

At this moment, the singing, the drums and trumpets all stopped, leaving only an awful silence.

The silence then gradually consumed me like a dark tide.

“......!”

When I came to my senses, I found myself in an old hut, sitting on an armchair with a mosaic blanket draped over my shoulders.

“What, just a dream...”

It was only then that I was able to calm my pounding heart and the cold sweat running down my body.

“Ha, unlucky first thing in the morning...”

A nightmare about being executed by an angry mob of people.

Had it been a month since I stopped Belmott’s rebellion? I never thought I would have a nightmare.

Of course, I knew very well why I had such a nightmare.

It was because of the things I had learned last night.

「Villain Hunter Party List」

I was stressed.

The main character’s party might come to Ark.

That fact was driving my mind into a corner.

Were they really coming here? According to Marmar, it was a party of four composed of a Warrior, a Priest, a Hunter and a Pathfinder.

Except for the random existence of a Pathfinder, everything else was the same as the Villain Hunter’s Party. What if the main character’s party came to Ark?

I’d been pondering about it all night.

In fact, if we used common sense, it was safe to say that Aira would not clash with the Villain Hunter Party now.

Because Aira never awakened as the bloodthirsty Queen she was in the story, who indiscriminately massacred people. In that context, the Villain Hunter Party’s target should no longer be aimed at Aira.

Of course, I, Theo Gospel, would not be targeted by them either.

However, who knew what variables were there in this world...

It would be better to tell Elga or Aira not to approach the crossbow warrior party and stay away from them if possible.

Seureureuk, giiiik-.

Just then, the hut door opened.
