I will not die a Villainess's death - 220 219: All the preparations are complete

“I would like to ask you what you are planning. How can you disappear without telling anyone anything? Do you know how much I had to search for to find you? Huh, Lord Axia?”

Head Priest Yohan’s eyes were filled with concern as he stared off into those grey eyes in front of him. However, the world’s consciousness had no intention of replying to his feelings.

After all, the creature that was tasked to look after the world was selfless and had no awareness of the problems he could cause for the people around him. Especially when it was concerned with the well-being of others.

As long as the world remained functional, he had no problem lying and playing around.

“I told you before, Yohan. Your concerns are a bother to me so you should stop now. If you have time to worry about me, then use it to cause distractions. Oh, and Elysia Dirac will be here soon so be ready to greet her as well.”

Axia, the world’s consciousness, had a small smile on his face. His carefree expression conveyed how he was not bothered at all by what he had just heard the Head Priest say to him.

After all, why should he even care when his plans were coming to fruition soon enough?

Elysia Dirac had bought his half-lies and she would be here soon to fulfill her part of the ceremony. It seemed well worth it to send her to different worlds now.

“Oh my. Why are you so obsessed with that child? Can it be that you are in love with her?”

Head Priest’s eyes were as wide as saucers he used to drink his tea in. His mind was full of disgust at the thought of what was being implied here.

He had never had those kinds of thoughts about Eve and he would never have them as well. After all, Eve was his daughter. She was his second chance at happiness he had lost due to his foolishness and-

“Despite what you think, Eve is not your sister. So should stop projecting the dead image of your sister onto her now or your rationality would never see the situation.”

“I don’t-“

Yohan started to explain, only to stop mid-way. Why did it matter what he said to Axia anymore? It was not like Head Priest Yohan had anything to prove to anyone.

There was no need for him to make excuses.

“And there you go, avoiding this topic again. But since I am in a good mood, I will let this conversation lay low for now.”

The world’s consciousness did not need to drag a dead topic out any longer. Especially since he had a lot of other work to do instead.

Elysia Dirac had agreed to come to him and he needed to make preparations. This world was getting unstable and would need a new magic source soon enough.

Since the last world, they had borrowed magic from was going dry, it was time to change targets. And the one world he had chosen was the one that currently had the strongest connection to their world.

“It is lucky for me when that Enma child fell into the rift and I saved him. Soon, his world would become our new energy source. And then this cycle would start again with new actors taking up the stage.”

After that horrible night that Elysia had, she woke up in cold sweat. Her face was white and pale when she woke up in the morning and she even scared her servants when she made an appearance outside her room.

Of course, she had the worst of the timings and she ran into Eve on her way out.

“Elysia, I told you not to leave your bed. Hurry up and go back to sleep. You look far too pale for my liking.”

Eve was frowning as she looked at Elysia. Her displeasure was evident and Elysia decided not to test her anymore. An angry Eve was not an opponent Elysia wanted to face currently.

“Have you thought of a name for your son yet? You should name him soon since we will have to present him to the court. In many ways, a name is the first present a parent gives to their child.”

Eve’s words made Elysia pause. She could not help but think that it was a good thing that she had not named her son yet.

It would be another attachment she was preventing her child from forking with her. Now he would not think about her when someone called his name.please visit panda(-)N0ve1.co)m

“I know I should name him but I still want brother to name my son when he wakes up. But if he does not wake this month then I will have the Queen name him instead.”

‘But Lucas is about to wake up soon so it doesn’t matter.’

Elysia did not add the last part aloud. The last thing she wanted to do was to create a misunderstanding between herself and Eve.

Eve looked relieved after hearing Elysia out and her eyes were gentle as well. She also seemed to be in deep thought as she looked at Elysia’s son.

“You know, I am so glad that he has your hair color and your complexion. I wonder what else he inherited from you?”

At that very second, the child managed to open his eyes and look at Eve. he was calm for a few seconds before he broke out into a tear-filled cry. Elysia quickly took the child back and tried to comfort him.

Eve looked stressed at seeing the kid cry for no apparent reason. The reason for her panic was apparent as well since she loved the kid.

But the kid did not like a lot of people. The only person he was calm with was Elysia and Adam occasionally. And that was why Elysia took her son back and watched as he calmed down instantly.

“Eve, did you scare my son again? I see that he has impeccable tastes while being this young.”

Adam nodded his head as he walked into the room as well. He did not glance at Eve as he walked over to Elysia and kissed her before settling at Elysia’s side.

There were dark bangs underneath her husband’s eyes and Elysia felt bad for the overwork he had to do. Elysia could not help her with the paperwork since she was stuck in her room anyway.

“Don’t think too much about me. My work is something I can get done easily and I will sleep when I need to. You should worry about yourself more.”

Adam’s arms tightened around Elysia’s waist and she felt the warmth of his touch spread inside her body. She melted against Adam’s body and allowed him to hug her.

It was such a domestic scene that Elysia wanted nothing more than to let it last forever. But that was easier said than done. Especially since Elysia already knew what the outcome would be for her.

“Excuse me, Emperor Adam but your ministers are looking for you quite urgently. They say that they need to talk about a case with you.”

Adam sighed as soon as the guard conveyed what he wanted to tell him. He was in a good mood so he left soon after. Eve left soon after as well, citing how she had work to be done for now.

Elysia watched them as they did what they wanted to while she was stuck in this room. But she was not resentful in the least.

Especially when she was about to do something very dangerous to them in return.

“Well then, now that they are gone, I guess it is time for me to start as well. You can come in now Emma. I know you are standing at the gate.”

Emma White entered the room with hesitant steps. Elysia could read the worry in her eyes loud and clear. She tried smiling to put Emma’s mind at ease but it was not easy.

Especially since Emma looked like she was about to cry any second now.

“My lady, let’s head out.”

Emma help her hand out and Elysia took it. She was young and her child was already her whole life. But Lucas was equally important to Elysia. She could not choose in the end.

“Let’s stop by Lucas’s room before we head out. I want to leave my son with him.”

Elysia knew that Lucas would love her son as much as he loved her and that was why she had agreed to this deal.

If one person’s sacrifice could stop everyone else from dying, then Elysia was willing to take that gamble. Besides, her life was not worth much in the end.

‘It was incredible that I managed to live past my death date. But I guess even I cannot escape it completely in the end.’
