NovelEnglishThe Villainess Enjoys Her Seventh Life as a Free-Spirited Bride (hostage) in a Former Enemy Country
Chapter 53.1: SurpriseThat night, Rishe went to the field as usual accompanied by two of her knight guards.
She was wearing a dark blue dress that was washable and hid any stains. Her long hair, which she usually let down, was tied high up in a ponytail.
The knights waited a short distance away while she silently began to harvest the herbs.
All she could think about were the concerns that arose today.
Count Rovine will be present at the soiree. No matter how you look at it, Luciu’s real identity will be exposed…
She uprooted the weeds while also thinning out the sprouts of the medicinal plants.
The moon was full tonight, so it was almost enough to work without a lantern by her side.
Although, I was going to reveal my identity and apologize after the training period was over. Until then, I’d like to get some genuine training as a real knight cadet.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtRishe wanted to study in depth the knights of the country.
She wanted to know about the wars that Rovine and his friends talked about, plus the military ideologies of Garkhain.
It wasn’t just for her own training and physical fitness.
By doing so, I feel like I could understand a little bit about what “Emperor Arnold Hein” will be cooking up in five years’ time.
Rishe sighed as she thinned out the little sprouts.
Then, she gingerly regained her spirits.
— As for the evening party, we’ll have to find a way to properly entertain Prince Kyle without being noticed by Count Rovine and suspected by His Highness Arnold. I’ll tide over it with that hand! It’s grueling, but I’m sure I can apply my fifth life to it.
She brushed the dirt from her hands and stood up.
Thanks to the muscle pains that assaulted her entire body, she has gotten used to the constant pains, though it hurt when she was working.
“Are you going back, Rishe-sama?”
“I’m sorry, a little longer. I need to harvest some medicinal herbs today.”
She replied to the knight and lifted the basket of weeds she had plucked out.
The night breeze drifted softly and caressed her cheeks.
After spring, a short rainy season would follow on this continent. Tonight’s wind was a pleasant breeze that heralded such a rainy season.
Would it be the butterfly season soon? Perhaps, she could find a place to watch them in the castle as well.
While pondering, she caught sight of some flickering lights from the windows of the tower a short distance away.
Normally, that area would have been pitch black. As Rishe looked on, a knight noticed and informed her, “That’s the tower where the Koyor scholars are staying.”
“Oh, I see.”
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmKyle’s room was prepared in the main castle, but the others were probably staying there.
There must be some of the scholars who were acquaintances with Rishe. Of course, in this life, Rishe knew them one-sidedly.
I wonder if Jerome or Gideon is around. Greg doesn’t like ships, so he’s likely to stay on Koyor.
There were faces that inevitably came to mind as she remembered the people she missed.
Master is now traveling from place to place in search of pharmaceutical literature.
About a year and a half in her life as an apothecary, she met the man who became her pharmacy mentor.
He looked out for Rishe, who learned medicine on her own, and taught her a lot of things.
She had been with that master for about two years, but she still had a lot to learn from him.
