Chapter 33: A Villainess Gets Dragged Into Trouble (Again)
Seraphina barely got three hours of sleep before chaos struck again.
She had just closed her eyes, feeling the warm embrace of sleep—
BANG BANG BANG!
The door slammed open.
A furious-looking vampire noblewoman stood there, glowing with rage.
Seraphina stared blearily.
"…I swear, if this is about Damian, I'm moving to another continent."
The noblewoman stormed in.
"How dare you, you wretched villainess!"
Seraphina rubbed her temples.
"I haven't even done anything yet—"
The noblewoman threw a letter at her face.
Seraphina caught it out of reflex.
"…Is this a love letter?"
The noblewoman screeched. "IT'S A CHALLENGE LETTER!"
Seraphina blinked.
"…A duel?"
The noblewoman flipped her golden curls.
"Yes! You humiliated me at the last ball, and I demand satisfaction!"
Seraphina wracked her brain.
Last ball… last ball…
…OH.
Oh no.
Was this that lady whose dress caught fire when Seraphina accidentally knocked over a candle?
Seraphina winced.
"…Look, Miss… uh…"
"Lady Genevieve Blackthorne!"
"…Right. Genevieve. Listen, I really don't think a duel is necessary—"
"Too late! The arena has been booked! If you don't show up, you'll be labeled a COWARD!"
Seraphina groaned.
"Can I at least have breakfast first?"
Genevieve snorted.
"Eat whatever you want. It won't save you."
And with that, she dramatically turned and stormed out.
Seraphina buried her face in her pillow.
"I hate this world."
Lila strolled in.
"Trouble again?"
Seraphina held up the challenge letter.
"Apparently, I'm going to be murdered before lunch."
Lila read the letter and smirked.
"Oh, this should be fun."
Seraphina glared.
"Fun for WHO?"
Lila patted her head.
"You, of course. Don't you want to see a noble lady cry?"
Seraphina paused.
"…Actually, that does sound entertaining."
Lila grinned.
"Good girl. Now go get ready. You have a duel to win."
Seraphina groaned loudly.
At this rate, she wouldn't even need to worry about the game's villainess death flags.
The side characters were going to kill her first.
