The Villain’s Redemption Chapter 212

Chapter 212 The Culpri

Lucinia stared at Mo Li's sleeping face. The man looked a little softer now that he was asleep. Don't get her wrong, Mo Li was obviously attracted— very attractive. However, the man looked usually cold on the outside, his sharp eyes who could easily set her soul ablaze was usually always had that special glint of cunningness. However, now that he was sleeping, his face looked relaxed and vulnerable.

A vulnerability that he didn't show earlier when he was talking to the King. Lucinia wondered if the reason why Mo Li was quiet earlier was because of the poison. Was he trying to suppress it? Biting her lower lip, Lucinia closed her eyes and started rummaging into her space. In the previous world, she had gathered a lot of potions and pills for healing wounds and poisons. However, Mo Li specifically told her that the effects might differ in this world.

Still, trying is always better than just giving up. Moreover, Lucinia had this instinct that she would be able to remove this poison. It was just something that she knew. Again, there was no reason or explanation just a feeling. After she took the best potion that she had for poisons, Lucinia immediately put a few drops of it on Mo Li's mouth. Then she waited as she wiped the sweat from his forehead.

Slowly a gentle smile flashed on her face. Right now, she was trusting whatever it was that her instinct was telling her. Mo Li told her to trust her mind, and she was doing just that. Lucinia looked at the man whose face was now showing a little bit of discomfort.

Was it working? She couldn't help but wonder. Lucinia bit her lips, wondering when will he wake up. Mo Li actually didn't tell her about it, and she didn't bother asking as they were in a rush to go to the palace. Because of this, the poison had the time to spread inside his body.

"Stupid." The man actually didn't tell her about this when he knew that she had potions from the previous world. Was it because he doesn't want her to worry about him? Or was it because he doesn't want her to think about something else aside from her mission in this world? Lucinia could only curse inwardly.

Mo Li had been a mystery, and she hated how useless she felt right now.

"Lily…."

Lucinia froze when she heard him mentioned her name. Almost immediately tears streamed down her cheeks. His words were soft, almost like a whisper, but she clearly recognized her name. At first, she thought that he didn't know her real soul but it seems that she was wrong. He knew her…

Mo Li knew Lily.

After a few seconds, Lucinia suddenly stood and used some of the talismans that she bought from the other world. She had already forgotten the person who gave her these talismans, but she knew the person told her to use them during emergencies. To Lucinia, Mo Li's current situation is an emergency.

After making sure that he would stay safe while she was gone, Lucinia rode a horse and left the mansion alone. She needed to confirm something first before she would confront the real villain. After a few minutes, Lucinia finally arrived the Prince Gavril's palace.

"Princess, the King just left. The Prince is doing much better now. Though the wounds were not healing as fast, it is already showing some signs of recovery."

"What about the poison?" she asked the physician and immediately frowned when he saw the confusion in the physician's face.

'What poison?"

"I remember he drank the blood with Flower of death." She stated.

"Princess… there must be some kind of mistake. The Prince was not poisoned."

"And his wife?"

"Both were only weak and unconscious because of the wounds and not because of a poison."

"I see." Lucinia let out a sigh as she looked at her Elder brother, her face was stern as her mind was finally solving the pieces of the puzzle that she had wanted to solve since coming in here. "Please send some news to me once they woke up."

"Yes, your highness."

Lucinia nodded before leaving the palace. It seems that she was right after all. The target was indeed Mo Li. Lucinia sighed as she gave a wry smile.

"Your highness…" one servant approached her the moment she arrived at the mansion. "His Majesty's knights gave said that his majesty wanted to see you." The woman handed her a letter with the King's seal. Lucinia immediately faked a smile and nodded before she went to Mo Li's study, so she could open the letter alone.

She was already expecting the King to summon her. After all, she already went to Prince Gavril's palace. It must be obvious that she already knew what was going on. Her lips thinned as her fingers started drumming on Mo Li's table. Sighing, Lucinia stood from the leather chair and went out of the room. Then she made sure to put more talisman in Mo Li's room before leaving the mansion again. She was confident that Mo Li would know how to disable these talismans just in case he woke up.

Another sigh of exhaustion left her lips. Right now, Lucinia's emotions were a bit confusing. She felt worried and anger at the same time. The thing was, she actually didn't know if she was angry with herself or with Mo Li's secrets or with their current circumstances. She didn't know if she did something so wrong in the past to deserve this. She hated how Mo Li didn't tell her about the poison or how he was still not showing signs of waking up. She hated how she is starting to feel like she cared too much about him.

Wasn't she supposed to become a robot-like existence? Without love, past, and memories. She wasn't supposed to fall for someone! No, she wasn't supposed to fall for another person like her! So why was she feeling all this? She already expected that emotions would only mess her brains up, and she was right.

Currently, Lucinia was so worried about Mo Li's state, she couldn't think properly. She knew asking her system would be useless! And she actually had no one to talk to. She felt suffocated.

While she knew that the man was following his own rules, Lucinia found it unfair that she doesn't know anything about their past. She doesn't know why she felt too strong towards him or why seeing him weak was hurting her, a lot. She just felt that all those could have been avoided if he told her about it if he explained what was happening. However, a part of her also guessed that Mo Li was not allowed to help her.

Telling her what was going on with the King would make her mission easier. And she knew that the system wouldn't want that. It seems that the system doesn't want her to have an easy time doing these missions.

Lucinia didn't waste her time. With her horse and Mo Li's sword that she found in his study, Lucinia went towards the cabin that the King instructed her to go. A cabin— really a boring place to die.

Lucinia's senses had been heightened since she left the mansion. In the letter, the King specifically told her that he would tell her everything about her mother. Was that supposed to make her run towards him? She rolled her eyes inwardly. By now, Lucinia already knew that the King was the one responsible for everything. And she meant everything.

That man was indeed cruel, heartless. A father who would want his sons to kill each other was useless. Was he doing this for power? What a useless goal, Lucinia thought. She didn't bother to try analyzing the King's reasons behind all this, all she knew was that he was not a father. That man was nothing but a sperm donor! A cruel one at that.

After almost an hour of riding her horse, Lucinia finally arrived in the forest where the cabin should be located. This place was considered forbidden as some vampires who had long lost their sanity chose to hide in this forest. She wondered why would the king chose a place like this to meet her.

Of course, the possibility that this was all a trap was already in her head and she was already prepared for that. So, just as she saw the Cabin, Lucinia immediately started creating her field, increasing the pressure slowly as she neared the two-story wooden house.

Just as she expected, sounds of men grunting as they tried to fight her field echoed inside the forest. She snorted and eyed the door of the cabin. She could feel the King inside.

Surprisingly, the man was calmly sitting on his chair drinking some blood as if… as if her blood field was not affecting him at all.

"Would you trust me?" his voice was almost a whisper. It made her frown.

Trust? How could she trust someone she doesn't know? She didn't know if she had it in her heart to trust another person aside from herself. "Who are you?" she asked.

"I can't tell you."

She bit her lower lip. She could feel his breathing against her cheek, and it made her want to feel more of him, more of this madness. But was it even worth the risk? "Do you know me?" She couldn't help but wonder.

"You are mine, and I am yours. That's the only thing that you needed to know."
