Death Is The Only Ending For The Villain

Chapter 170

A mad dog’s coming-of-age ceremony was held in which I was raised by a Duke who was so powerful that even a bird fell. The ducal family, including me, stood side by side behind the podium."Congratulations on the coming-of-age ceremony of Penelope Eckart, the Eckart’s the only woman. As an honorable nobleman and one loyal people of the Great Empire, so as to make its castle and name known to the world throughout its life..."On behalf of the Emperor, who was unable to come in person due to illness, a servant under his command issued an edict. The boring speech was repeated. The next order was the congratulatory remarks of the original family."The beginning was only a minor aesthetic to escape from the trapped pupa, but now in adulthood, she is a member of the proud Eckart house..."He said it long and elegant, but now that I’m an adult, he was telling me not to run like I used to. I could see Reynold pointed to the old man and said, ’I think the nagging is about to start.’The speech of the elder, which seemed to be highly self-possessed, went on as delicate and long as it seemed to be never-ending."Therefore, I admit that Penelope Eckhart has grown up, and I formally declare it."Tak-. At the end, the elder grandfather finished speaking and neatly closed the right-hand file he was holding. There was a thunderous applause from the audience.I was supposed to hear it silently, without smiling or answering at any other questions. That’s all I could do while I was holding this kind of Coming-of-Age ceremony."Butler."As the applause calmed down little by little, the Duke looked at the butler, who was in charge of the ceremony. The butler moved at once. He dragged the tray that he had prepared on one side.It was the final procedure. Drinking serials as a way of congratulation and reverence between immediate family members.Of course, this does not end completely, and it has since led to a reception. Anyway, I put my mind down because I was just about to finish it safely."But where the hell is Derrick?"At that time, the Duke asked Renald with an angry voice. I realized only then. That Derrick wasn’t in his seat during the ceremony.Renald frowned as he looked around the hall."Oh, I’ve been looking for him for a long time before, but I can’t find him. Should I bring him now, Father?""You, go right away to him"But before the Duke allowed it, the butler arrived. The Duke quickly shut his mouth and again put a friendly expression on his face. On the tray brought by the butler, there were four bottles of liquor and four golden glasses side by side.The Duke, who had made a short toast, poured the wine into his mouth. Again a steady stream of applause burst out. I pretended to drink as the Duke told me and threw away the wine on the lawn.When I put my glass on the platform again, Renald poured the wine naturally. "For Penelope."The previous acts with the Duke were repeated once again. Throwing away wine was easier and more natural than before. When sharing the toast with Renald was finished, the Duke opened his mouth quietly."Sadly, the Young Duke have something to do""I’m sorry for being late."It was then, stopped the Duke’s words, someone stepped into a solemn, still place. Everyone’s eyes glanced there. The first thing that caught my eye was an old butler with a puzzled look.Approaching him, the tall man reached to the podium. As usual, a cold, cool face faced me. I looked at him with a little surprised eyes and hesitated.’The gauge bar’Above the top of Derrick’s head, the gauge bar had changed color. From orange to bright yellow.My eyes were wide open. Derrick’s favorability was distracted by the change of color in the gauge bar, and I didn’t notice it. A small figure standing behind him."Who’s that lady?""Is she the hidden lover of Young Duke? What the hell..."The whisper began to spread all over the quiet hall. It was the Duke, not the me, who recognized it first."Derrick, you... you...!"The Duke couldn’t speak, staring at the slender wrist he was holding. When Derrick saw his father in astonishment, he said calmly."It’s a place where all immediate family members should attend. I was late picking up Yvonne." "Ah, Father..."A small shivered figure slowly emerged from behind his back. It was Yvonne.Carefully raising her head, she looked at me, shivering her shoulders, and lowered her head down in fear. It looked as if she was forced to be hidden under the evil influence of a fake princess, but was dragged out of the hands of wicked woman. The hard mode limit period is over. Counting favorability... ... ... Favorability’s count is complete!The light flashed before my eyes. And. You didn’t succeed in ending with any target until the time limit. A system window pops up to inform me that the game had failed.It was okay because I was prepared so far. But that was not the end. Penalty due to failure.’Penalty?’The unexpected development made my mind blank. ’What? What kind of penalty is this’Before I could even accept the situation, the writing in the system window changed rapidly. [Downs the favorability of all capture targets] Penalty application. [Eclise -20 %][Derrick -20 %][Renald -10 %][Vinter -10 %][Callisto -10 %]In the blink of an eye, everything fell apart. The white writing with ’—’ came to me like a vision from all sides.Updated from ligh/tnovelpub[.]comI quickly lost the favorability I had accumulated with tears of blood. (Wow i got goosebumps when i read this chapter.)
