Chapter 394: : Revenge
Chapter 394: : Revenge
A sudden feeling starts to envelop my whole being. Then I suddenly feel myself shaking a little because of anger. I am sure it is the emotions of the real Csille.
And I know what she wants to say to me. She wants revenge, and she will get it no matter what.
"I am decided. I want to get my revenge. I want to make Prince Fraser feel all the things I have suffered all these years. I want him to lose everything that I have lost too."
Mister Sewell stares at me for a couple of seconds. It seems like he is trying to read if what I am saying is true or not. A moment after, he takes a deep breath. "Are you sure? Even if it means you need to go against the whole Astalieus?"
I felt my world stop for a minute when I heard what he said.
Everything he said just now was the lines I had written. It's really happening already!
I slowly turn my head at him and frown. "Go against the Astalieus? But I thought..."
He shakes his head and interrupts me. "Csille, you cannot ruin Prince Fraser without ruining the Astalieus. It's the reason why I asked you a couple of times if you are sure about your plan because once you were decided, you cannot go back to your normal life."
Of course, she cannot. How can the Vrawyth people accept her after everything she did to them? I don't think they were dumb to do that.
Once Csille agrees to this, that is the end of her life. No more Csille Lauretré in the future. "But... but if we go against the Astalieus, it will definitely affect the Vrawyth Kingdom."
He nods his head. "Yes, that is the price of revenge, Csille. Remember, you are getting back at the Crown Prince and not some nobles. Once you do something against him, you already turn your back on the Astalieus and the Vrawyth Kingdom."
"Wait, I understand that I don't have a choice but to turn my back on the Astalieus, but why do I need to turn my back on the Vrawyth Kingdom? My whole family pledged our loyalty to the Vrawyth Kingdom. I don't thi-"
I wasn't able to finish what I wanted to say because Mister Sewell interrupted me. "Dame Csille, do you really think you can separate the royal family and the Kingdom? If you want to bring down Prince Fraser, who do you think will be left to rule the Kingdom? The King who is already old and will definitely have diseases in the future? Or Prince Rufus, who is a free spirited person and doesn't like to involve himself in the monarchy?" Mister Sewell gently squeezes my hand that he is holding. "Csille, you have no choice but to turn your back against them. Even to the whole Kingdom because only then you will be able to get your revenge. So, I am asking you for the last time. Do you want to take your revenge? Are you willing to sacrifice everything just for revenge?"
I turn my head to the sakura tree in front of us. As much as I want to run away from this place, I know I cannot do that. My opinion in this situation doesn't matter because the real decision maker here is the real Csille, and if she will decide, I'm sure she will say yes to this.
Because she doesn't care. Now that she lost Prince Fraser, she doesn't care about losing everything in her life.
I feel a sense of urgency bubble inside of me. It's as if the real Csille is trying to tell me to say yes to Mister Sewell. To agree with his plan.
I turned my head to him and was about to say something when I suddenly lost control of my lips. Then I found myself saying things I should have said. "I already told you, Mister Sewell. I am already decided. Whether the Vrawyth Kingdom dies or lives, I don't care anymore. I just want to take my revenge. I want to take everything from Prince Fraser."
I glance at Mister Sewell, and for the first time, I have seen him maliciously smirk at me.
He already succeeded. Of course, he will be happy. But will I be happy with Csille's decision? Can I be happy with her decision?
I look at Mister Sewell, who looks so happy right now. After he heard my decision, we decided to celebrate for lunch. We just eat and enjoy wine while talking about random things. He didn't mention anything about his plan. So, I'm still unsure if their plan will align with what I have written.
Mister Sewell stares at me and frowns. He probably noticed that I was staring at him for a couple of seconds now. "Dame Csille, are you regretting it now? Don't worry. I understand if you wouldn't continue. As your friend, all I want is to make you happy."
Throughout our conversation, he never mentioned anything about his plan and emphasized that I was the one who wanted to get this revenge. It's as if I was just dragging him to this
mess.
He is really wise. He is acting like he is only doing this for my care, but in truth, he is doing this because he wants to bring the whole royal family down.
I shake my head. How can I take back my words now? If I do that, then I will be endangering everyone in this world.
There might be many people who will lose their lives in the war because of us, but the number cannot be compared to the number of casualties once this world destroys itself.
"I'm not regretting it, Mister Sewell. I was just wondering how we can able to take everything from Prince Fraser?"
Mister Sewell puts the wine cup and stares straight into my eyes. "Csille, do you trust me?"
I nod my head without hesitation. Although deep inside of me, I know this man can never be trusted. He is the kind of man that looks innocent on the outside but a devil on the inside. This kind of people are the ones people should never trust, and I am well aware of that.
Too bad the real Csille isn't. In her mind, the only thing matter is revenge, and she will get it no matter what.
Mister Sewell smiled at me. He looks satisfied with my answer. "Then you don't have to worry. I will deal with the other things. All you need to do is to do what you normally do. Be the Csille Lauretré everyone wants."
Everything that is happening right now seems like following the script, but I couldn't be complacent. After all, I still don't know their detailed plan. I'm not sure if they will follow every detail I have written.
"What do you mean I need to do what I normally do? How can I get my revenge if I will still be the Dame Csille everyone knows? Also, why can't you tell me the 'other things' you are talking about." I even put emphasis on other things to make him see Csille's displeasure because he was keeping the plan from Csille.
Mister Sewell heaves a sigh. "Dame Csille, please don't be mistaken. The reason why I haven't told you about the plan is that there is still no plan. I still haven't talked to 'them..." My eyebrow perked when I heard the word them. Who are the 'them' he is talking about? Are they the ones I am thinking of?
"And about you living the way you used to is part of the plan. However, there is nothing to worry about. Once I get the concrete plan, I will talk to you about it. While we still don't have enough concrete plan, we need you to be our eyes on what is happening in the monarchy. Even if we already have a spy inside, we need someone who can get access to information that you and the royal family only know. So, do-"
I shake my head and wave my hand. "Wait, there is something I don't understand here. You said you haven't talked to them? Who are these people you are talking about? What am I getting myself into? Mister Sewell, are you—"
He raised his two hands to stop me from talking. "Let me explain things before you assume. You don't have to worry, everything is under control, and before you speculate that I am only using you, that is not true. Remember the conversation I had with you last time?"
I nod my head. Then I see him take a deep breath before continuing what he wants to say. "I have thought about our conversation after, and it made me think. What can we do if you ever plan to go against Prince Fraser? We couldn't do small revenge because I know that wouldn't make you feel better. So, I have thought of something that will definitely make you feel
better."
I frown. "Better? What do you mean and you didn't even answer my question. Who are these people you were talking about?"
"If you really want to take revenge on Prince Fraser, then you need to bring the Astalieu
family down."
I nod my head. "I already know that. Haven't we just talked about this earlier? Why do you still bring it up? I want to know the answers to my question."
"That is the answer to your question, Csille. If you want to bring the Astalieus down, there is
only one way to do that."
I know that one way, and I don't like it. I will never like it, but I don't have a choice but to
agree with it.
"One way? What is this one way you are talking about, Mister Sewell? Can you just be straightforward with me? I want to know everything. Every detail. I think I deserve that,
right?"
He smiled reassuringly at me before he stretched his arm to gently caress my head. "Don't worry. You will know everything in the future. As for your question, what or better yet, who do you think can bring the whole royal family down?"
I pretend to be shocked because that is what the real Csille should feel right now. I know who
he is talking about. There is only one group of people that can do that.
I look at him with wide eyes. "Are you talking about the Aeslaerean Kingdom, Mister
Sewell?"
Even before Mister Sewell could answer my question, I already knew what his response was.
The Aeslaerean Kingdom was the only one that could bring the whole royal family down. If the Aeslaerean Kingdom decides to make a move against the Vrawyth Kingdom, the one who will be affected the most is the royal family.
Mister Sewell nods his head. Then I heard him sigh. "It's the reason why I ask you a couple of times to think of it because we will need external help if you want to drag the royal family down. Once we do it, we cannot go back to who we are, Csille. So, do you still want to do it? Don't worry. If you decide to take back your decision, I can still cut my connection with them. I could even tip the whole the royal family that the Aeslaerean Kingdom is planning to go against them. So, the decision is in your hands, Csille. Do you want this revenge? Do you want to hurt Prince Fraser at the expense of hurting everyone in the Vrawyth Kingdom?"
He was right. If Csille needs to drag the whole royal family down, we need some external help, and that is the help of the Aeslaerean Kingdom.n/ô/vel/b//in dot c//om
I pretended that I was contemplating for a few moments. Everything that is happening right now is aligned with what I have written, and I know how this day will end. Csille will agree to Mister Sewell's plans.
"But how did you manage to have connections with them? Are you planning this all this-"
Mister Sewell shakes his head. "No, Dame Csille. Even if my whole family hates the royal family, I don't have any plan of harming them. It's the reason why I am trying my best to live a simple life because I don't want to involve myself with my family issues with the royal family. However, when you became my friend, I started to hate them. You were the only noble who treats me good, Csille, and I don't want to see you hurting like this." He takes a deep breath after. "Remember when I asked you to think it thoroughly? While you were contemplating about your decision, I decided t contact the Aeslaerean Kingdom because I know only by doing this can we ruin the royal family. So, to answer your question, no, I am not planning about this all this time. The reason why I befriend you is that you are a nice person and nothing else."
Lies. Everything he told me was all lies. He pretended like he was doing this just for me, but in truth, they have been thinking about this for years now.
