The villain's side of the novel-Novel

-----Next day

In front of the Parada Family's outer mansion gate, The knights were standing in front of the door as usual, and with them, there was a pretty girl with blond hair and a complex expression on her face.

"Welcome to the Parada mansion princess, Zina." It didn't take long for Kara to arrive at the place with a gentle smile on her face, saying as she looked at the beautiful young woman who was standing outside of the outer gate with a shy expression on her face.

"Hi, Ms. Kara, sorry for the surprise visit," Kara said with a small smile on her face

"It's okay, it's really good to see you after all this time lady Zina, follow me please," Kara said with a smile as she respectfully began to lead Zina inside.

"Thank you, Ms. Kara," Zina said, respectfully following Kara back into the mansion

(it seems that she came here on foot and without even a single escort, the poor thing ....) Kara thought as she looked at Zina's pretty face by the side of her eyes.

After exchanging some short conversations with Kara while following in her footsteps, Zina entered the mansion before the two head to the second floor of the mansion where the head of the family's study is located. After Fray received the information about Zina's arrival, he asked kara to bring her directly to his office.

Knock, knock, knock

After arriving in front of a wooden door, Kara knocked on the door quietly before opening the door a little and looking to the side where Fray was sitting respectfully, "Sir, Lady Zina has arrived."

"Bring her in.." Even though the door of the room was partially open, Zina couldn't say Fray's desk but she was able to hear Fray's deep voice.

"Okay sir," Kara said respectfully before turning around to look at Zina and say " Princess Zina you can come in"

"Alright, thank you, Ms. Kara," Zina said. With a grateful expression before she passed the door to enter the study room feeling her heart racing, and there was inside the room Fray sitting at his desk with the same cold aura around him and the same unemotional expression on his face as usual

"Mr. Parada, thanks for meeting me without an appointment," said Zina nervously, looking at Fray, who hadn't looked at her yet.

Fray got up from his chair, then pointed to the small reception table that was in the room, then said in a calm voice, "Please sit down."

The study room is big in addition to Fray's huge desk and the many closets there was also a small table surrounded by different seats, and this was the table at which Fray and Zina sat across from each other.

(Looks like he's still a little angry ..) Zina thought sadly as she looked at Fray's expression, which looked cold and indifferent on the outside.

Fray looked at Zina, who was sitting across from him, and said, "So Why did you come here?"

"Oh! Well, I came here because,... because.." Zina muttered in a nervous voice as she looked down with an uneasy expression.

In fact, Zina, since that day, has been in a very confused psychological state. She did not know what she was supposed to think and she does not know what she even wanted to do exactly after what has happened. The plan that she had been waiting for, for months failed miserably, but for some reason, she did not feel angry about it, as all she was thinking about all this time was the angry look that was on Fray's face that night

"…" Seeing Zina's nervous state, Fray sighed inwardly in annoyance and then asked calmly, "Why did you do that? Did the Northern Iron castle threaten you?"

After hearing Fray's question, Zina held herself together and then said with a complex expression, "No, I wasn't threatened, I practiced in the plan with my own free will."

"Why?" said, Fray looking blankly at Zina

"Almost three months ago, I received a letter…" Zina said with a complex look as her eyes suddenly became watery. "The letter contained evidence that it was in fact my mother, with the help of the First Princess, who planned that attack a year ago."

"..." After hearing Zina's words, even though he didn't show it, Fray was shocked. This was not mentioned in the , and Fray had no knowledge of it, but it is actually very possible and reasonable to the point that Fray was immediately sure that this claim is probably true.

A year ago Zina was a strong warrior, smart and talented, and supported by many major powers, at that time she was the strongest candidate for the throne of the Lionar Kingdom, but on one of her political trips, Zina and her escorts were attacked by a very strong and mysterious group, Zina barely got out alive from that attack, but her survival cost her a lot, that day she lost her energy cores which mean she lost her all her power, in addition to that all of her escorts which were close friends and loyal servants and knights were all killed brutally, including her father, who was escorting her as well.

Fray at that time was dealing with his own problems and he was in a miserable state as well, and because he had already cut off his relationship with Zina, he did not look into the matter closely, and because the information of the attack had reached him a little late, he didn't even visit Zina, he just heard the rumors that the genius princess of Lionar Kingdom had lost her power base and her position as an heiress of the throne.

"Who sent that letter?" Fray asked

"It was the Northern Iron caste who sent that letter and other letters after that containing many other pieces of evidence that were undoubtedly proving that the Queen and the First Princess were behind that attack," Zina said in an angry tone in her voice.

(So ​​they used the fact of that attack and the fact that Zina did not have enough power to take revenge to convince her to join them as a sacrifice to the curse that will kill all the residents of the royal palace. Because of Zina's psychological state and because of her hatred of her family members and the high-class families in the kingdom, she indulged in the matter as a Desperate attempt to end her suffering and get revenge.) Fray thought with a blank face as he looked at Zina, whose eyes were wet with tears.

"Was the head of the Iron Castle responsible for this? Or it was just Ferritt by himself?" Fray asked

"I actually don't know. I only communicated with them through letters and servants. The plan was so secret and precise that I could not find any information about the people responsible for it or even about the source of this curse, despite the use of many large information organizations," said Zina.

(Of course, you will not find any information, even the great families will not be able to discover them.) Fray sighed internally while he was thinking.
