Villainess Becomes The Knight

Abigail pov.

It was the best chance I could get. Since the room was empty with everyone going to watch the knights competition, I could go and see what had happened.

I walked back to my room and took out a black dress with a veil. After covering myself completely, I jumped out of the window and ran towards the back garden. Jumping the wall to the other side. I moved towards the sports ground again. I looked around but that dumb was not here anymore.

"Where the hell are you Asmund?" I mumbled as I turned only to find him standing in front of me.

"Were you looking for me?" he asked with a cheeky smile on his face.

"I wonder how you still have time to laugh and joke around! Have you not heard the news?" I asked with a cold expression but the man laughed nonchalantly.

"Of course, I have. Can you not see the happiness on my face? I was about to start the store again, and this could be the best start. Now that he is no longer in competition. I am sure I will thrive better. And if you exposed his acts. I do not think he would ever be able to come back again." he replied with an evil smirk. 

"There must be a limit to being foolish or else you would not only ruin yourself but the whole ship would sink!" I replied curtly as he looked at me.

"What are you talking about? I thought you were the one who did this?" he asked with a frown on his face.

"I am not that fool to begin with. If anything happens to his business now. We would be the first to be suspected. I wanted to attack him from the shadows but now you are in light. You will be the one he will doubt first and maybe even try to take revenge. So be in the shadows, for a while. Do not do anything that will increase his suspicions towards you.`` I replied and he went into deep thought.

"Stop collecting proof and following him for a week or two. Let everything calm down or else he will kill you and i will not be able to save you.'' I added and I turned to go back.

"Hey, do you seriously not know who is behind this incident?" he asked as he ran behind me.

"If i knew, i would have been talking to him, not with a fool like you." I replaced it without turning back.

"Just who has so much courage to attack not one or two but all of his stories!" no matter how hard i think i could not remember anyone in the past have stood so strongly against him or any fire that occurred in his stores.

"But if I could find this enemy. I would be able to destroy him easily.`` I rubbed my forehead at that thought.

"Well, my first pawn could not work for now. It is time to use the second pawn!" I walked towards the knights competition hoping to meet him there.

I stood at a distance looking at the gossip mongers. They were the ones who wrote every event in parchments and then sold it.

They work just like newspapers of the modern times. The difference was they did not have any advertisement and they did not have any machines to do that.

That is why it was a costly parchment, mostly bought by nobles for their will to read and gossip. It collects events and writes them with a lot of spice.

Bjut i was looking for a particular gossipmonger who was famous for his goodwill yet he hates the archduke family. They always stop his parchments from selling whenever he writes something against gim and oppresses him badly!

There he was.. Instead of standing in the front like others,. He was sitting on the roof at an extremely dangerous point from where he could fall easily only to get a better view of the competition.

I smiled and climbed the roof. 

"You can fall in a second, Caleb." I whispered coming closer to him and he jumped in the air.

He was about to fall when I held his hands tightly. 

"Who the hell are you?" he screamed and i shook my head.

"You should ask questions, when you reach the floor again." he gritted his teeth but put the whole pressure of his body in pulling himself as i continued to pull his hands.

He came a bit up again and held the railing with one hand jumping in back. He laid on the ground as he patted his chest to control his fast heartbeat!

"That was an adventure, my lord. Who are you? Do you have any idea I could die right there?" he asked as he looked at me. And I shook my head.

"You have to live long to help me, Caleb. I will not let you die before that!" he frowned at the choice of my words as he finally turned to look at me. 

I was staring in front of him with my hands folded in front of my chest and my eyes looking intently at him.

"You made it sound that the sole purpose of my living is to serve you. I apologise, but you have some confusion here. Cable did not serve anyone., he is master of his own will." he sat up patting his clothes and took hold of his parchment and ink and brush and walked towards the railing again.

"I am not asking you to be my servant. I am asking you to write the truth about the archduke family.`` Finally my words caught his attention as he turned to look at me. As if asking me to continue what I had for the offer.

"I want you to write how lord Gerard dealt with the compensation he needed to pay to the other businessmen and how he took revenge from the innocents. This way his reality will finally be out."
