When an anti-fan transmigrates into the well-known novel 'The Villainess Reverses the Hourglass' she finds herself in the body of the antagonist- Mielle Rosecent, who is fated to die against the vengeance-seeking female lead, Aria Rosecent!
Mielle w...
"MIELLE, I HAVE A QUESTION FOR YOU," Aria asked out of nowhere. I turned around to face her once again. Just what was she going to ask me?
"Yes, go on," I say facing her this time to meet her eyes. Aria, squinted a bit, but continued anyway as she said with her hands crossed quite promptly as she spoke.
"How much do you know about my hourglass?"
My heart-beat finally dropped, and my fingertips went cold. Oh shit.
I became a bit alerted with how she started the questioning. THE HOURGLASS?! W...why was she bringing that up from nowhere now?! D...did I do something wrong that revealed that I knew about the hourglass or something?
Did she already know what's up? Or is she testing me?
J-just w-what's going on?
Shit. Shit.
What the fuck do I say?
"...Hourglass? What do you mean hourglass?" I say out loud, trying to tilt my head slightly sideways to appear clueless.
Aria squinted her eyes as she said, "Are you sure, you didn't notice anything about my hourglass at all?"
"...I... I have no idea what you're talking about Unnie," I say it even more confidently. "And... notice? What the heck?'

But not matter, what I said, it didn't seem to convince her at all. Instead, Aria came even closer onto me as she touched the bottom of my chin, "You... you've been efficiently evading everything... and foiling my plans. There is no way your dumb brain is able to compute anything like that."
!
Is she trying to get me to reveal myself in front of her?! No... No!! YOU CANNOT REACT... MIELLE, YOU CANNOT REACT AT ALL!
If she knows that I know about the hourglass's existence... I'm forever done for! Shit! Shit!
"D-did you just c-call me out like that?" I say, moving backward as she holds onto my chin even more tightly. "Why the hell are you touching me like that? What point are you trying to make right now?!"
I screamed out the last part. Aria quickly stepped back as she said, "...that can't be right.." She looked towards the staircase, where Emma was running down the stairs immediately after my shouting.
"My lady! My lady is something the matter?!"
"Of course, your stupid... maid comes down to your rescue if anything happens to you... ha... isn't life just unfair, Mielle? Do you know, how much I loath you?" Aria said coldly. "The amount of times I had to turn back the damn hourglass to beat you... it's making me loose my mind... but you wouldn't know would you?"
!
Is she revealing her cards right now?
No... you cannot react, calm yourself down Mielle! You do not have the winning hand at all! If Aria gains important information from you, then you're definitely screwed. Calm down! C-calm down!
