Melissa POV
_ _ _ _ _ _ _ _
"DOCTOR! GET A DOCTOR!!" A butler shouted
"LADY MELISSA HAS WOKEN UP!"
"LADY MELISSA!" A maid called my name
"AHHH!! WE WERE SO WORRIED!!!" Heini yelled
Wh-what the hell? Why is it so chaotic in here?
I just came back from dealing with a bratty kid.
Give me a break...
"...!" I feel Nine tears
"Agh..." Nine said
"..." Silence come from me and Y/n
"Nine, I'm/she's not dead." Me and Y/n said at the same time
"I better go, Not to ruin your lovely conversation over here, I'll be going now." Y/n said and walked away
"Eh..? Okay" I said with a curious tone
But I'm scared of wolves. I recalled of what Melissa said
Ah.
I see...
To be honest, I'm not sure how much things have changed in this world after I became Melissa.
But...
"I..." I said
"I will protect you no matter what."
Nine, the fact that you're by my side right now...
is only possible became I'm me.
"By the way, Nine." I said
"Didn't I tell you to lock the door before I fainted?"
Nine flinch
"Didn't you realize that It was probably because I didn't want" I said
"The servants crowding In my room and making a fuss like this?"
Nine whimper
Looks like I'll have to teach him a few things...

" i heard you fainted earlier today." The Duke said
"But you don't have any underlying health issues."
"What happened?"
*Melissa thought*
"DO YOU HAVE BUTTONS FOR EYES?! CAN'T YOU SEE THE DECIMATED GARDEN OR THE WOLF FUR FLYING EVERYWHERE?"
"HUH?! INSTEAD OF ASKING ABOUT WHY I FAINTED, SHOULDN'T YOU BE ASKING IF I'M OKAY FIRST?!"
"CALM DOWN, MELISSA! IT'S ALL THE MORE BETTER FOR YOU IF HE DOESN'T TAKE ANY INTEREST IN YOU!"
End-
"I guess It's because I was a bit tired these days." I said
"By the way, Your grace."
"Could I and Y/n go on vacation for a while?"
The truth is, I got injured during my fight with jack.
Even though the sword I use was a ridiculously OP item,
it didn't help at all when it came defending against attack.
A normal wound would heal enough rest and food,
but mine was far from being an ordinary one.
A werewolf uses their own unique energy,
where humans wield magic.
Though humans and werewolves may look similar, the sources of their powers are greatly incompatible.
If their aggressive energy enter the human body,
it triggers a severe adverse reaction.
That's what caused my internal bleeding from before.
Melissa Barely has any magic,
But there still is a small amount of It In her body, so I was trying Not to get bitten...
I guess that was too much to ask.
"Vacation?" The Duke said
"Of course, Why not?"
"If you travel to the Rural Areas of the Podebrat Territory..."
"No." I cut him off
"I've Already decided where me and Y/n want to go," I said
"So that's where I'll be heading."
"..." Silence come from the duke
Huhu... I can exactly tell what he's thinking!
"...Where do you want to go, Exactly?" The Duke asked
"It's a place called Liptun." I said with a smile
"What?" The Duke said
"Of all Places, Why there?" The Duke asked
"There aren't even any forest In Liptun, Only Vast Wastelands." The Duke said
"Oh well, you know, I really love Wastelands. And Y/n said she love Wastelands too!" I said with a smile
"I'd like to go on a relaxing trip in Liptun enjoying the view."
"Besides, I think I developed an Allergy to wolves after my trip to the forest last time, So I'd rather not go there!"
"Ah, I see..." The Duke said
"Oh, and yes, I know that's where The Elizabeth estate Is." I said
"They probably wouldn't Accept me as their guest."
"But as long as you give me your Permission, I'll find somewhere to stay."
I've read the full Novel, so I'm certain about one thing.
Our dear, overpowered main character has magic that can easily cure illness. The same as Y/n but Y/n's Healing, Not curing illness.
as well as restore Nine's tongue.

(If you want, Please Imagine there is Y/n beside Yona.)
"As Expected, This is the best team." I said
Many other servants offered to company me and Y/n trip,
But I dismissed them all except for Nine and Yona.
Jeez, It's not like I'm planning on moving.
The four of us always gather together when we have to deal with things we feel guilty for, so now we're called the "guilty crew."
"No matter how quickly we travel to Liptun, It'll take us at least two days to get there." Yona said
I knew she was oddly skilled at a lot of things, but who knew she could drive a carriage?
Did she trade In good manners for her talents?
"Two days Is too long. Make it one." I said
"That's not possible." Yona said
"If we get there In a day, I'll give you a gold coin." I said
Sfx: appeared
"We will serve you to the utmost of our Ability." Yona and Y/n said
"Forget a day. we can get you there in 6 hours, So please come aboard the carriage, My lady/Sister."
Sfx: quickly
"Y/n, Your one of Podebrat family, Not a servant-" I got cutted off by Yona
"Lady Y/n, you could just sit beside me to help me. And also get the pay check too." Yona whisper to Y/n the last part.
"Yona Is right Sis, I will be just with Miss Yona, You could just sit at the Carriage, Me and Yona will be in Luptin in 6 hours." Y/n said with a kind fake smile
"Do whatever you both want..." I give up
.
.
...So that means It wouldn't have taken us two days In the first place.
Ever since she returned from her vacation, she has only grown more materialistic and deceptive.
And Also Y/n after staying in her room for a few days, She had become more like Yona and grown her skills more.
"Hiya!" Yona said
Come to think of it, there was a scene in the novel where
Jake took Yuri for a ride in this very carriage to avoid Melissa's tantrums.
Oh, Jake, Don't worry. I'll make sure to put your secret route to good use.
Sfx: rattle Rattle
"UGH, COUGH...!" I coughed
Sfx: startled
This damned adverse reaction always hits me without warning,
and it's only getting more frequent...
"Thanks." I thanked Nine
Sfx:cough, drip drip
I might have less time than I thought.
"..." Worried SIlence come from Nine
.

"My lady." Yona called my name
I opened my eyes
Sfx: blink
Ah, I fell asleep.
"Yeah, Yona. We're here?" I asked
"No." Y/n answered
"But I think you should take a look outside." Yona said
Yona's and Y/n's voice always so emotionless.
But they're speaking in a very calm, steady voice right now.
There must be something going on.
Sfx: Widen
Sfx: Slap sla
Sfx: burst!
"Has your mistress finally awoken?" Some man asked
"You'd better listen to us and get out now!"
Huh?!
Is this the overused trope In Romance Fantasy Novels where the character gets attacked by bandits
While riding through the forest?
"HAND OVER EVERYTHING YOU HAVE!" He shouted
So cliche.
Sfx: Rise
"GRRR!" Nine growled
"Nine, wait!" I said
I glance at the Bandits
Judging from their filthy and skinny appearences,
they must be a ragtad bunnch of bandits.
The majority of bandits consist of fallen commoners,
Sfx: stand
but there's no way I'd feel sympathetic towards them when they dared attack me.
"I told you I'd protect you." I said to Nine
"Don't Interfere."
Sfx: smirk
Though Nine may be a werewolf, he's lost his fangs, as essential element of his strength.
What will happen if his pretty face gets scratched up?
Sfx: rage
"WHO DO YOU THINK WE ARE?!" The bandits yelled
"YOU UGLY WENCH!"
Wow, even the words he's saying are so cliche.
Let me resolve this quickly and get some rest...
"Well, I'm In a good mood Today, So I'll let you off the hook!" The bandits leader said
"You see, We've caught an Absolute Beauty with us here!"
Sfx: hehehe
"eHehehe..." The bandits giggle
"DO you know how hard It is to see such a beautiful Gal here in Luptin?"
Huh?
No way
Don't tell me...?!
"Just look at them!" The bandits point at the girl
"If we sell her, we'll become filthy rich In no time!"
Sfx: boom
"...Miss Yuri and Miss Lessie?" Me and Y/n said
"HUH?! MISS YURI AND MISS LESSIE?!" Me and Y/n shouted
"WHY ARE YOU BOTH HERE?!"
"Hehe." Yuri and Lessie awkwardly laugh
SfX: awkward
"NOW IS NOT THE TIME TO BE LAUGHING!" Me and Y/n yelled
