The Villainess Wants To Go Home

Chapter 65 - Goodbye Friend



Chapter 65 - Goodbye Friend

"Take me to the teleporting tree thingy" I said, forgetting the name of the tree Elisaria talked about

yesterday.

I waited for her response, but I only got a baffled and facepalmed look from her. "My injury is healed" I

lifted the white blouse up, revealing the perfect skin before the wound. Her jaw shut permanently like

glue and her owl-like eyes widened. "What in the God's name am I seeing" she mumbled.

"The fairies healed my wound with water magic. So, I'm feeling better now, show me the way to the

tree. So, I can get on my way" there was a hint of coldness in my tone as I eyed the old witch.

Her face went pale for moment when she turned around and started mumbling something to herself

that I couldn't quite catch.

"Tell me did you do something for them to return the favour?" she narrowed her owl-like eyes at me

with suspicion, smacking her lips together as she did. I quickly shook my head.

She opened her mouth to say something but closed it again. She stroked her wrinkly chin and squinted

her eyes in deep thought. "That is very odd" Elisaria murmured. This is from NôvelDrama.Org.

"It's not normal for fairies to heal a random person?" I asked placing my hand son my hips. The old

witch gave me a cold side glance. "Fairies don't do favours for a human without owing their lives to

one. They are takers not givers"

'Huh? I thought fairies were the nice mythical beings or something. What the hell is this?'

"So, they doing ya a favour out of the blue is very odd, never have I heard of this before" she said

before staggering her way to me.

Elisaria eyed me up and down. "Who are ya? What are ya?" this witch has doubt reflected in her eyes

and her tone was harsh. "I'm only a commoner from Isvand trying to make a living after my father's

passing" I lied calmly but it came out cold and ruthless as I crossed my hands. She glared at me and

continued to smack her lips again. "A commoner ya say?" Elisaria eyed me up and down, examining

every inch not seeming to miss a single spot.

"That's hard to believe" she continued to doubt my words. "Ya skin is smooth and light like it had been

taken cared of, ya hair is long and healthy, and ya face looks seemingly healthy for a commoner" she

said poking me.

I swatted her hand away "believe what you want to believe witch but I'm telling you, my father was a

doctor working for the commoners and my mother was a seamstress. I'm nothing but a lowly

commoner trying to make some money for a living"

Elisaria clenched her jaw shut but her eyes revealed that she still not trust my words at all and had her

doubts of my identity. The old witch wasn't to blame, of course she would have her doubts, I am lying

about who I really am. My father wasn't a doctor he was photographer and mother was kind of a

seamstress, she was a fashion designer that was coming into the light before the tragic incident 17

years ago.

"Tch, whatever. I don't care anymore" she swatted her hand down and shrugged off with a few cursed

words.

"So can you lead me to the tree" I asked her in a bluntly manner resulting her to turn around and stare

at me creepily. "The Andmine Arbor will bloom in a few days and that is when I will lead ya to it but for

now ya are welcome to stay here. Rest, play do whatever ya young lasses do in such a youth age" she

shooed me off pinching the bridge of her nose. She keeps murmuring to herself and I can't hear what

she is saying.

"Thank you"

I rested my self under the shade of the tree, feeling puffed out from all the intense running around to

build up Diana's horrible stamina. I really miss my original body. I had spent years building it up to

where it is now. Now I have to restart all that harsh training again. I grumbled of frustration escaped my

lips.

'Nothing ever goes my way' I let out a breath.

I stared upon the blue sky, watching how grey clouds start to form stealing away the sun of the sky and

bringing in an echoing thunder. They bring a short silence before rain begins to fall, the winds whip, and

swirl and the trees shake and tremble. The rain came pouring down from the sky, dropping on the

budding leaves which have their first taste of rain before meeting the ground with a calming nose as I

close my eyes and focus on the raindrops, the soft pitter patter calming the soul in me.

The atmosphere around me calmed, the soothing sounds of the light rain drumming down on me as

each rain pounded down, each drop a small stone and piercing cold. Soon the drizzle turned into a

heavy downpour soaking me to the bone within seconds.

"Aren't you going to go inside?" I opened my eyes when I heard a familiar annoying voice of the fox. I

flipped my head to the side and saw Homura sitting not far from where I laid, his orange fur already

soaked with the tears of the sky.

His honey-coloured eyes stared at me blankly. "After I did 500 swings" I said as I turned my head face

forward to stare at the dark clouded sky.

There was silence and the only thing I could hear was the ominous sound of the round pelting the

ground. I sighed "You came here to say goodbye, didn't you?"

"I'm able to walk on my own now and I did say when I get better, I'm leaving" he said calmly. "hmm" I

hummed. There was more silence as we both listened to the rain. "I don't have anything to repay you

for your kindness, but I wish you luck on your journey home" he sounded forced, and I could sense the

feeling loneliness coming from his tone. I didn't respond but kept staring at the sky suddenly feeling a

lonely darkness slid it's way through my heart.

"Look after yourself and don't get come in contact with those human parasites, Damon and Edmond

was it. It will cause you less trouble"

"Yeah" I murmured, the atmosphere became dead silent again. "Your not going to bid me farewell?"

I gave him a blank side glance, "There is nothing more painful then saying goodbye, Homura. That's

why I tend to say nothing when people are leaving me. It doesn't hurt me as much"

"I see" he rose up and turned around giving me another look.

"Be careful Artemis and travel safely" was the last thing he said before jogging off and into the bushes.

I watched him leave and it felt so lonely and quite all of a sudden.

Demarcus is also going to leave, and I will be alone all over again just like the in beginning I came to

this world. I had no one but myself to rely on and I thrived without the help of anyone but myself. 'This

world is so cruel. Everyone is going to leave at some point in your life, that is just reality'

But them leaving me is the best choice, getting attached to anyone here would loosen my motivation of

getting home. That's something I must be careful here. No friendship, no family, and no love, especially

love. It would be difficult to choose over your lover or your brother whom you sacrificed to get to then to

end it because of some guy you fell in love while traveling.

Not like I'm looking for anyone here or wanting to pursue love again. I already made that mistake once;

I don't want to do it again.

Just like Fumihiro had told me. 'Do not let anyone bring you down Artemis, this world is full of lies and

the only truth is yourself. Don't be fooled by it'

~Ventus~

Neil gazed upon the floating islands of Azura, each one descending higher in the sky like stairs as

waterfalls poured down into the river down on the earth.

"This is where the witch of Ventus resides" he mumbled to himself.

~Flash back~

"Where are you going Neil?" the emperor rose up from his silver throne as his voice echoed the halls of

the throne room, his silver eyes watching his oldest son storm his way to the huge entrance of the

marble doors.

"To the isle of Azura" he answered without a giving a single glance back to his father. The emperor

clenched his fist, fuming with anger. "Neil, I forbid you to enter those wretched lands of the witch!" he

commanded, his voice echoing loudly startling everyone in fear.

Neil ignored him and continued to walk as the huge marble doors slowly opened up for him.

"NEIL! Do not disobey my order!"

"Darling let me go and speak to him. Screaming and ordering him like that would make him disobey

you further" Arabella stood up clasping her husbands muscular hands and staring deeply into his silver

eyes. Ambrose eyes softened when it met the beautiful lavender eyes of his beloved wife.

Sighing in agreement, Arabella lifted her skirt a little and ran down the stairs after Neil, her heels

clanking the silver tiles. "Neil!" she called out.

Neil halted his tracks and looked back to see his mother running after him, her beautiful platinum gown

that complemented her eyes trailed behind her. "Mother" he walked after her so she wouldn't have to

run to him.

She reached him with an exhausted breath, cursing at how big the throne room was. "Please listen to

your father" she pleaded, her eyes revealing how desperate she was for Neil to not leave. "The only

way to figure out what is wrong with Benjamin is go to the witch"

"Neil, the witch was banished from Taivas for a reason. If you were to head to Azura I can't bare to

think what she will do to you" she glanced at him, her eyes worried and tight. "This isn't about me

anymore. Benjamin is dying and I can't sit here and do nothing when there is chance, I might find a way

to save him"

"Neil, please don't go. There has to be another way, please don't make me grieve for you as well" her

voice became heavy as the words the begged him to say became soft and painful for him to hear. Her

days in Benjamin's side crying had dried her vocal cord and blurred her eyes.

"Please" she cupped her son's cheek with gentle hands that held him for the first time 21 years ago.

Neil kissed his mothers brow and a guilty smile crossed his face, the pain he felt for making his mother

worried made his heart sink to the bottom. "I will look after myself do not worry. You need to trust me on

this" he hugged her quickly and left to the entrance. Arabella was slump to the floor in defeat, her

hands trembled, and her blood went cold as the tears came rushing down.

"Gods hear my plea, keep my dear child safe"

"Prepare my dragon" Neil ordered one of the trainers in the stable.

"Where are you headed now?" Lykos questioned, his brow knitted as he did. Neil paused, and he

sighed uncomfortably. His hands were already shaking with fear and his heart wouldn't stop racing.

He knows the dangers of encountering a witch, especially the five sisters. Evil people that aren't even

human to begin with that lived far longer than anyone has ever had, legends say that they were there in

the very beginning of the King, and he was going to meet one face to face.

Neil knew that if he went to her for help, she would have a bargain that would be impossible for even

him, the crown prince of Ventus to give but her grudge against the Ventus is going to make things

difficult maybe she would kill him out of revenge.

He doesn't know what the outcomes is going to be but if he has to just to save his little brother, he will

even give his life.

"Neil?" Lykos waited patiently for Neil to respond, eyeing the tall prince in his light blue tuxedo showing

how well his well built body was under the material.

"You have heard of the banished witch, Adrastea?"
