The Villainess Who Was Dumped Got Married into My Family, a Mob Noble from the Frontier, and Turns Out, She's an Amazing Capable Wife? - Chapter 116: Sorting Out the Situation

Chapter 116: Sorting Out the Situation

Patricia and I decided to sort out the information again.

“You seem to know a lot, but where did you get all this information?”

She clearly had more knowledge than someone who just reincarnated like me should have.

I had been curious for a while, but now I asked her directly why she wanted to break the barrier.

“Oh, are you really that interested in me?”

“I don’t like the vibe you’re giving off, but I have no feelings about what you were trying to do in the first place.”

If she wanted to break the barrier, she could go ahead and break it.

“But I can’t accept Alicia and me being caught up in the disasters that result from removing the Saint from the story.”

My intention had always been to resist the ruinous fate trying to balance things out.

“I’ve dealt with the monster-related issues. But there’s more, isn’t there?”

“Hmm, so you thought I wanted that destruction. That’s why I came all the way from the Continent Principality.”

“Exactly. And besides, you’re not even a real saint.”

“Oh, but I was properly appointed as a saint by the Principality and came to this academy.”

Patricia casually dismissed my words.

“As a guest, you should treat me with more respect.”

“That’s a scam.”

I didn’t know what tricks she used, but it’s definitely a scam.

“If you’re exposed, you’re dead. Not that I care if you die.”

“Thanks for the warning. But how do you plan to prove I’m not a saint?”

It was like trying to prove the devil, but it was simple.

“The awakening by the sacred artifacts will be proof enough.”

“Seriously, you really are just a horny monkey.”

“I’ll kill you.”

“You said it yourself. Your power is triggered when your life is in danger. Wouldn’t the same apply to the saint’s power?”

Patricia laughed.

“That power will only be proven when the country is in a critical situation, following the story set up by the ancient creepy stalker guy.”

“…”

“Originally, I planned to deceive Edward, get rid of the real saint, send that big-breasted girl to a remote area to eliminate future obstacles, and then slowly take control of this country. But thanks to you, all my plans are ruined.”

For Patricia, who had connections with the Principality, Alicia was the only significant obstacle she had to worry about.

“You found the holy artifact. And the real saint is somehow there as well. So, before things get complicated, I had to forcefully change the script, you see?”

“You took a gamble, pretending to be the saint.”

“Pretending, huh… Well, who knows? I’m not stupid enough to take such a risky move. Though, things did get pretty confusing.”

Patricia glared at me sharply.

“Really, it’s just idiots everywhere. From a barbaric idiot to a bald one. You fought Edward head-on and actually killed him, which caused all these strange things to happen.”

She clearly hadn’t anticipated this turn of events, and her words were harsh.

Even though I managed to thwart Patricia’s plans, it was Edward who had been causing most of the chaos from the beginning.

“It’s because you abandoned him.”

After Patricia completely abandoned Edward, he changed dramatically.

“Blaming me for that? It’s been a nuisance for me too, you know?”

“Don’t care, it’s annoying.”

Still fuming, Patricia was visibly angry. Alicia then asked a question.

“Hey, if she’s a fake, then who is the real saint? It’s a pretty fundamental part of the story… and we’re in a crisis right now, right?”

“Oh, right!”

Belial mentioned that Edward was the vessel of the sage.

If that’s connected to the barrier that disappeared, then Mariana, who we recognize as the reincarnation of the current saint, is also directly involved.

“Alicia, you were with Mariana, right?”

“Where is she!!”

Before Alicia could answer, Patricia was already pressing her for information.
