When I Reincarnated, I was One of the Villainess’ Followers. . .But I Decided to Live My Life Freely.

"Now, let's be straightforward. Camelia, I've heard rumors that you're attacking students in the academy."

I see, I see. Camelia attacked a college student... hmm?

My eyes and those of Camelia widened as I went up the imaginary diagonal. Inside my brain, I feel confused, and I get attacked by the feeling of my vision turning around.

What? Is that who Camelia really was? I thought you didn't feel like a naughty villain for a millimeter, but behind the scenes, it was such a horrible act?

... no, no, that's incredible.

"Everything is a persistent harassment of certain students."

"Mother, I don't remember."

Persistent harassment... hmm. Sure, then I guess you're a villain girl. I mean, Flower Eden actually harassed me.

Nevertheless, I've never seen Lily look like that in this world.

"For example, he took the student into his room and forced him to bully his body."

"Mother... eh?

Oops, it's like I've heard about it somewhere. What was that?

"Otherwise, even in front of the public in the hallway of the dormitory, let it... force it to kiss."

……

Uh, yeah. Fully understood.

Sounds familiar... or should I be familiar? After all, that student is talking about me. Almost certainly.

"I've also heard that you stuck with me and harassed me for stalking."

……

Master Scarlet, it's all my fault...

Most of the time, the rumors of the students encountering each scene were mixed up and distorted, and they reached Scarlett's ears.

Because Iris was so noisy in the academy, it's not particularly strange that someone watched us interact with each other.

It is a bit surprising that the rumor reached Scarlett's ear. I don't know if the Duke of Juanelle's information network is amazing or not.

In the meantime, more than the facts, you will be able to dispel your suspicions about Cameron.

If Camera, who knows what's going on, talks about everything in detail, she'll be able to convince you.

"Hey, do you have any objections, Camelia?"

……

However, the cameras remain pointing down and do not try to open their mouths.

No, why? I have to contest that, and Cameron's position is not good either.

"I wanted to hear the truth directly from your mouth. But if you're going to behave like that, you're going to have to take this rumor as a fact.

……

As Camelia remains silent, the situation will certainly go in the wrong direction.

At that time, Camelia glanced at me and laughed in trouble. And as if you were ready to accept your sins, you're waiting for your mother's next words.

... oh, that's what this is about, Camelia.

Seeing her expression, I finally understood the girl named Camelia. You are too kind to take on the role of a scoundrel.

She fears that her friends may be punished for telling her mother, the Duchess, the truth. And sometimes it hurts me.

I mean, no, no, that's why you can't accept a sin that doesn't even exist. That's too bad.

They think too much in the first place. Perhaps, no doubt, it won't be such a hassle. It's too clumsy to choose your own path of doom without a flag standing.

I can't let you do such a stupid thing. I'm surrounded... by this lass far from being a villain.

"... Scarlett, please listen. That particular student is me."

"Lady!?

I stripped off my maid's skin and stepped forward, opening my mouth with momentum. Magnolia startled me, but I can't afford to be there right now.

Carmelia with a tight expression also stood up in a hurry to stop me, but Scarlett returned the words by blocking it.

"If the story is true, I must apologize to you, the victim. Can you tell me more about it?

"Yes, of course. But you don't have to apologize. Or vice versa. Camelia always helps me."

I explained the truth of all the rumors... in as much detail as I could, as I was so embarrassed. Of course, Camelia has saved me many times.

Iris, Lily, and Anemone are probably not acting in bad faith. It must be a bit of a joke extension. Well, I can't deny that you're being too honest. I don't know why I ran so far.

"I'm sure it would be embarrassing to explain... thank you for telling me everything for my daughter."

Scarlett, who had listened to my explanation until the end, smiled with a gentle expression that closely resembled Cameron.

I wonder if it was the result of an awkward but thorough explanation that was surprisingly accepted. If so, it's worth the courage.

... no, that's not the only reason.

"As I see it, you weren't just a maid."

"I knew it..."

Camelia and Magnolia were surprised at my interaction with Scarlett.

"Mother...?

"The lady is so cute that she can't fit in the maid's clothes. Even if they find out, it's only natural."

Uh, Magnolia, that's not what this is about.

I want you to think about it. If it is true that Camelia has been harassing us, it could hurt the original name of the Duke of Juanelle.

There is no way to have a first-person maid present in a place where such a dangerous story could be leaked.

The Duchess cannot be deceived in her eyes.

Besides, this is my guess, but perhaps Scarlett didn't suspect her daughter from the beginning.

On the contrary, I realized that I had some kind of close relationship with my daughter, and in case of need, I might have explained it to her.

"I know my daughter very well."

"Mother....."

"You, the Duchess' daughter-in-law, are in a position where you are sometimes exposed to malice. That's why I think it's my mother's job to protect you from rumors that could discredit your daughter. But before we deal with it, we need to make sure it's true."

Well, honestly, I think there might have been a little better way to check it out... but at this point, okay?

Gentle and reliable. Such a place is very similar to mother and daughter, but apparently there are also two clumsy places.

"Hey, cute and friendly maid. May I ask your name?"

"... called Silane."

The lady smiled when she heard my name.

Yes, you must be Mr. Silane.

……

"Nice meeting you, Camelia. Siran-san, look forward to seeing my daughter again."

I nod quietly.

When I looked at the camera as it was, I found that for some reason my face turned bright red and covered my cheeks with both hands.

I thought I'd send you a friendship eye contact, but what are you doing?

◇

After that, I enjoyed chatting with Mr Scarlett for a while... and I realized that it was time to go back to college. Fun time is quick, isn't it?

After saying goodbye to Scarlett, who was so much in love with him, we went outside the Mansion.

I felt a sign on my wipe and turned my gaze to the side, and Camelia looked at me in my ear.

"Thank you so much for today. If you'll excuse me, please stay with me."

At the moment I feel the soothing whisper in my ear and inadvertently turn my face towards Camelia, the feeling of another lip touching my lips is attacked.

... tickle, tickle?

"This is... a little gratitude."

Camelia, the opponent of her lips, immediately turned away from her face and walked forward early enough to succeed in a prank.

This is a gesture of gratitude, which means thank you. Well, I see.

I feel like I can hear Magnolia screaming from the side, but it's probably my fault. Mm-hmm.
