The Villain Always Dies in the End

The Cold, Bitter North (1) - 5

h her help that I was able to escape, as she created a completely new identity for me whilst simultaneously wiping my memories and replacing them with happy ones, so that I could live the rest of my life pleasantly.

And, she had paid for this with her life.

Now that I was looking back, I was deeply ashamed for never remembering her.

Even in this space, which I had deemed as my subconsciousness, I couldn help it as tears started falling down my cheeks.

Seeing my actions, I realized that I was no worse than Eve and my current family.

I had turned my back on a family member, just so that I could have a chance at living.

Softly sobbing in my subconsciousness, curled up in a ball, I couldn help but think about how hypocritical I was, before the darkness engulfed me once again.

I opened my eyes to a gray stone ceiling.

Sitting up suddenly, I thought, Did I get reincarnated again?

But, this theory was swiftly thrown in the trash as I saw Charlotte sleeping in a chair next to the bed I was in.

”Char… ”

I wasn too naive to believe that she had followed me here to the castle in the north without an hidden orders.

But still, it was nice for the heart to see her here with me.

I mean, her job as a ”nanny ” now was probably to keep me from awakening, so that I could peacefully await my death here in the damned northern lands.

”Char! ”

Snapping her eyes open, she stared at me in shock.

”Young Master! You
e awake! ”

She immediately rushed to my side to check if I was okay.

Seeing this, I couldn help but smile warmly, as I realized that she was still the same as ever, caring for me even though I was a demon, or at least, held the seed of a demon.

She proceeded to take off the thick blankets that had been protecting me from the bitter cold of the north, and, well, even I was surprised at the state of my body.

Even though I was thin, probably due from the lack of eating during the however many days I was asleep, I had muscles now for some reason.

The people that had been watching me whilst I was asleep had probably been perplexed by this, but, I could already guess what had probably happened.

”Char, carry me to the wheelchair. ”

”But, Young Master, your body is still too weak to handle the cold! ”

”This is an order Charlotte. ”

Hearing me call her by her real name, she could only comply, as, although I was now probably disowned from the family, I was the the Young Master that she served, and this would never change due to the vow she made to me at my birth.

Carrying me to my wheelchair, she placed me in it, before I directed her to take me out of the room.

I shivered slightly after we exited the room, as there was no fire to warm the cold stone walls, but, even so, I kept urging Char forward.

Finally, I reached what I was looking for, a window.

Seeing the completely gray world outside, I couldn help but sigh.

Reaching my hand out, I caught I few snowflakes from the blizzard raging about, and then brought my hand back in, staring in contemplation into the grayness.

Then, I softly murmured two words, the sounds of the blizzard outside masking them, just to make sure if my previous conjecture had been correct.

”Status window. ”

Seeing something pop up in front of my face, I couldn help but smile.

It seemed like I had done the impossible, awakening my status window by myself in my fit of rage.

And, after seeing my skill, I couldn help but chuckle, before it blossomed into a full blown laugh.

”Are you okay… Young Master? ”

She was given no reply as I continued laughing.

I was probably going to be thought of as having a few screw loose in my head by her now, but, it was understandable after what I had gone through, right?

Maybe I did have a few screws loose, wait, no, I definitely did.

But still, as I looked at my status window, I couldn help but continue laughing, my creepy giggling echoing through the walls of the castle.

I continued like this as Char worriedly took me back to my room and hurriedly laid me onto my new bed, quickly checking to see if I had a fever or anything.

Of course, she never found anything.
