Troubled Villainous Daughter, My Fiancé Won't Stop Approaching Me!?

Episode 19 - Wiping Out the Entourage

"There are other people I have to punish."

Leonhart began the act right after the words left his mouth, the development was too bewildering for Francesca.

Afraid of the word punishment, the boys started fussing among themselves.

"Wh-why would we have to be punished!"

The first to raise their voice was a male student with a large build.

"It's not our fault! We were deceived by that girl, Angelina!"

His face was bright red as he pressed Leonhart, Angelina was still in a daze as they pointed towards her.

"E-e-exactly. Rather, you could say that we're the victims!"

A student with glasses was wiping his cold sweat with a handkerchief, scrambling to form words.

"As the prince you should only be punishing the villain, yes?"

"Right! It's enough with only Angelina!"

"Please overlook this!"

"We're only students! This is only a silly fight among fellow students!"

"Don't think that you can do anything just because you're from the royal family!"

"This is oppression! Tyranny!"

Six other male students ganged up on Leonhart. However, Leonhart was completely unfazed and only uttered a few words,

"...Silence, you trash."

There was an overwhelming sense of intimidation emitted from his whole body, he stared at them coldly with his blue eyes. With just that, the boys were frightened into silence.

"Francesca is mine. Get it, my fiancée, my lover, my most important treasure in the whole world... To lay a hand on her. Is something I can not overlook as a man."

"B-but! For such a selfish reason, you're going to punish us!"

One of the six people, a round faced boy objected, looking deathly pale.

"Isn't it natural. Francesca is my, the Second Prince's fiancée. To gather around and condemn her, isn't that like seeking a fight with the royal family."

"We didn't expect it to come to such a thing! We're only students! Please overlook this!"

A male student wearing white nervously cried out as he scratched his hair.

"You idiots. To think that anything can be forgiven just because you're students. Rather, if fools like you were to venture out into the world, the honour of each house would decline without fail, the dignity of nobles would be looked down upon as a whole... Cancer like you should be removed early on."

"—Y-yo-you can say whatever you waaaaaaant!"

It was Viscount Ibis's second son Adolph who screamed. With his spider-like long limbs he tried to hit Leonhart.

"I was only stating the facts... Congratulations. This is rebellion against the royal family. I'll be sure to invite you to prison."

Adolph's fist never even grazed Leonhart. Leonhart had bent his upper body slightly and dodged Adolph's fist, slipping under his chest in a fluid motion, he strongly struck underneath Adolph's chin with the heel of his palm.

"Ah... gah...!"

Dan! The violent impact of the sound echoed, Adolph's body flew through the air. He fell to the ground unconscious.

"How foolish."

Leonhart sighed.

"At any rate, as soon as the brunt of the attack is aimed at you, you try to run away by blaming all your crimes on Angelina. You pathetic excuses for noblemen, no, you can't even uphold the air of a man... In the far eastern countries, there seems to be people called eunuchs. Their private part is cut off. Doesn't that sound like something that would suit you?"

Using an inhumane voice to inform them, the eleven boys, not including Adolph, went "Hie!" as they trembled and held their crotch.

"But that doesn't mean I'm without mercy. For example, if you were repenting, what else can I do? Should you do it, more or less, I may lessen your punishment."

"Ye-ye-yes! That's fine, Prince!"

The first to move forward was a dog-faced male student. As you can see (?) panting with his tongue out, he licked Leonhart's shoe.

"Please forgive me! Please forgive me!"

There was no pride as a noble, it painted an extremely cruel picture.

Furthermore, excluding the unconscious Adolph, the ten other people gathered at Leonhart's feet.

"...Truly, it's difficult to help."

Leonhart sighs in disgust.

"Why must you take away my good mood? First of all, you should be apologizing to Francesca. Enough, just stop moving—《Rest in Nightmare》"

It's sleep magic, unlike《Rest in Peace》, the target is induced to have a nightmare. Angelina and the entourage collapsed and soon started groaning.

"I'll make my decision later. Other than Adolph, the other's have no pretext for imprisonment. Make sure to throw the rest of them into separate rooms."

With Leonhart's words, spies wearing black clothing came out from where they were hiding. They quickly carried away the sleeping Angelina and her followers.

After that, only Leonhart and Francesca, Tricia, and the onlookers were left.

"...Wasn't that difficult, Fran. For now, let's go somewhere you can calm down."
