I'll save the villainess! (GL)

Chapter 2: Getting used to my new life here!

I change my mind.

It's terrible here.

5 years had passed by in a flash. I found out that my family had served the villainess' family for many generations as servants. Naturally, I've also become the villainess' personal servant and guard...training everyday and getting whacked with a wooden stick is awful...

Although I do have to admit, I can feel my body getting stronger... maybe if I continue, I'd be able to avoid my death in the book... which reminds me, how did the servant of the villainess die?

I did memorise all the contents of the book, but the character I was reincarnated as was a nameless side character who died early for unknown reasons... the only thing I know is that the character died at the young age of 16, during the first year of the magic academy...

This is bad... if I die before the main event, there's no way I'll be able to save the villainess...

Speaking of the villainess... during the past 5 years, she had gotten quite attached to me...

"N/N! N/N! Look at this!" The young villainess demonstrated her magic by burning a target to crisp.

Despite being 5 years old, the young villainess had already become a powerful prodigy... children now are terrifying!!

"Ah, Lady Elise, that was amazing!" I praised. It wasn't a lie after all, most magic users would only be able to perform such level of magic at age 10.

The young villainess pouted. "N/N, how many times have I told you to call me by my name?" Ah... right... despite being a few seconds older than her, I'm supposed to address her with politeness, yknow, servant things.

Unfortunately, this young villainess is quite the stubborn one... no matter how many times I tell her I'm of a lower status, she still insists I call her by her name...

"Elise... you know I'm your servant... right?" I sweatdrop, please don't make this hard for me...

"N/N, you're my friend before anything. And since you're my servant, I can order you to call me by my name too, right?" Ah... there she goes pulling that card on me...

I sigh and nod in defeat. Oh, right. You're probably wondering what kind of magic aptitude I have, since the villainess has fire, the male lead water, and the female lead light, I have the magic aptitude of...

Jokes on you, I don't have one. That's right. I'm born without a magic aptitude. Now, you may be wondering, how is someone without a magic aptitude supposed to protect the villainess?

My answer to your question? I have no idea. Yes, I proudly say that I have no idea how to save the villainess. I did think that if I trained my sword skills long enough, I might be able to become strong, however, that would take quite some time...

Besides, I still have to enter the magic academy along side the villainess. In the novel, it was never mentioned that this character had a magic aptitude, so I could only guess she entered the magic academy without one.

Of course, there's no way I could reveal the fact that I don't have any magic to the school. So my plan instead... is to say that I have the magic of telling the future. Brilliant, isn't it? By using my knowledge from my past life, I can basically foretell whatever is going to happen in the book.

I smirk to myself. I believe it's the most overpowered magic here. Of course, any other magic attacks I may need can always be replicated with the help of magic items. For example, a sword imbued with fire, or a spear with the water attribute. That's my plan of surviving in the academy of course.

Still, this may not be enough to save the villainess... and that's why I have my trusty system by my side!! With the system, I trust that I can easily be able to save the villainess. I mean, which main character with a system has ever failed in their mission?

[Host, you flatter me. But do not think this will get you any extra rewards.]

I deadpan at the unnecessary comment. Did you have to ruin the moment?

Long story short, let me explain what the system does. It gives me quests that I can complete to earn rewards. These rewards could be more magical items, or armoury. At least... that's all I've gotten so far. This stingy system hasn't given me anything good yet...

[Host, that is because all the quests you have completed are worth nothing. I suggest you get to work instead of badmouthing the system in your mind.]

I sigh... guess you're right. I look at the happy expression of my young miss, the villainess and the corners of my lips lift a little. So this is my life now... I swear on it, I'll save you, Miss Villainess.
