I'm the Villainess, So What?

Chapter 16

And so, the it ended up in a mess.

Shooting Star Academy Supreme Student Council had to hastened their visit to Rising Royals Academy to Red Willow Kingdom.

You see, it goes on like this:

The Queen of Red Willow Kingdom, Cordilia's future mother in law and the Big BOSS Villain’s mother, had sent a letter for her to visit, fueled by Prince Alexander's constant pushing. At first, it was Cordilia who should go with her brothers.... However.....

The problem lies with the Heroine, and one of the Male Leads, Crown Prince Robert, and the Cannon Fodder Prince Leonard.

Leonard still hell bent on Courting Cordilia, wanted to come, to probably scheme and cancel the engagement between Cordilia and Isaac. Damn, jealousy really is such a troublesome thing to deal with.

Lily Montana wanted to come because... Well, she is Cordilia's Apprentice, that and the unspoken 'I want to watch Ms Cordilia and Crown Prince Isaac' s love developed' and shit that goes in that line.

Crown Prince Robert knew that his rivals would be there with Lily and did not want to lose from the competition. And so he insisted on coming with them.

The King has no choice but to hand down an order for Shooting Star Academy to suddenly send the SSG to Red Willow Kingdom, as the Ministers insisted that since they are sending a lot of student, it is high time Gardenia get back to Red Willow's impudence in coming late or too early from schedule.

And so, Cordilia had a head ache. Its a good thing that she had the whole carriage to herself, Lily and Leonard wanted to board along with her, the result, Cordilia kicked them out, quite annoyed at their antics.

Cordilia sat in the carriage, bored. Currently, it's already night time and raining quite heavily, so they have to find a cave, bad news is the nearest cave is by the cliff side by the beach. But they have no choice but to camp there.

'Plot sama, I know you are up to something otherwise how did a perfect sunny afternoon earlier began pouring rain before dusk?' Cordilia gritted her teeth, feeling that another trouble is coming, and it would give her lots and lots of headache.

And so, Cordilia had to spend time hearing complains from most of the nobles, specially from the girls. Cordilia could see the disdain and mockery from the guards, coachmen, and some servants. Cordilia did not mind sitting on dirt, she was, after all, a commoner in her past life. And so, Cordilia made herself more comfortable on top of the boulder. Its a good thing that she was wearing a white warm turtleneck longsleeve, modified black hakama pants, and a red fluffy and warm coat. She, of course, was not comfortable wearing gowns and things like that, only wearing one if necessary. Lily next to her was pretty smart as well, wearing a slightly big black jacket with a golden waist belt, making it looked like it's a dress.

The two sat there, entertained to watch the quarrel bellow. Cordilia shifted her gaze towards the sea.

In her past life, Cordilia lived near the beach, she like walking in the beach before the sun rises, watching the sun rose from the horizon, and when the sun sets by the mountains. Cordilia loved the sea the most. Specially when the sea breeze blows to her face and to her hair, it always calms her down without a fail.

Cordilia wants to act stupid and began singing 'How Far I'll Go', this caused her to chuckled quietly.

'Oh how I missed Modern World' Cordilia hugged the coat closer to her.

"Is there something wrong, Ms Cordilia?" Lily asked, tilted her head

"It's nothing. Tell the others I want to take a walk" Cordilia said as she noticed the rain had stopped, she reached out to her boots and took it off, revealing her feet.

"Ms Cordilia, I don't think it's a good idea" Lily frowned, unsure, Cordilia took out a dagger from her hip

"I have something that can protect me" Cordilia said before she put it back, waving as she hopped from boulder to boulder and snuck outside

'I didn't know Ms Cordilia is very rebellious' Lily smiled as she took out a new draft Cordilia wrote, it's some Disney Princess stories and Lily are going to proofread them.

Meanwhile, Cordilia smiled in nostalgia as she felt the sand in her feet. It took all her will power to not jump into the sea and savour the feeling.

Cordilia head towards the sea, picking up a few seashells here and there. She head towards the rocky and filled with boulders. The moon is finally out and Cordilia was mesmerised by the Moonlight reflecting from the sea. But there is something wrong with the picture.

What is that?

Is that.... Metal signal light? Cordilia took out her dagger and used the light from the moon to confirm. She saw the light vigorously waving.

"It's a person! A person in the water!" Cordilia exclaimed, wanting to ran back to get help only to face-palm when she remembered that none of them knows how to swim until recently when her book mentioned swimming pool.

"Guess, I have to to this myself" Cordilia said as she head towards the nearby dock where some fishermen's boat were.

Cordilia got in the smallest one, enough to fit three people. She struggled and pushed it towards the water, jumping in and began paddling with the oar. She panted as she stopped, it really was a person on a broken mast. Cordilia removed her coat and sweater, now she wore a while blouse underneath, the black bra could be seen. Without hesitation, Cordilia dove towards the already unconcious person.

'Damn! So freezingly cold! Shit, I hope this person won't die on me!' Cordilia thought internally as she pulled the person to the boat and with difficulty, she hoist him aboard. It took a while and with great effort. Certainly, with her petite build and the person was a guy to begin with, it would be no doubt, quite challenging a good thing that the boat did not flip. She checked his breathing, good, he's not dead, still breathing. Cordilia shivered as she grabbed her sweater and wore it, she hurriedly drape her cloak on the unknown person and head back to shore.

Cordilia sighed as she grabbed some golden coins from her pocket and placed it in the basket where she got the net.

Cordilia had to compromise, she rolled the guy on the net, making sure he won't suffocate, Cordilia began dragging him back to camp.
