Villainess X Villain: They are obsessed with each other!-Chapter 89 -: 88 Even if the world is empty, I can fill the wolrd for you.[1]
Meanwhile, in the neutral city of Agarta...
Because of what happened the other day, Julius himself postponed the date with Rosalina and moved it three days later.
Today was the big day.
It was around 9 in the morning when Rosalina arrived at the town square.
This part of Agarta was very well developed.
Tall buildings stood everywhere, and wide roads stretched out in every direction.
Rosalina sat elegantly on a waiting bench, legs crossed.
She was wearing a stunning black dress that showed off her neck.
Around her neck hung a luxurious white gem necklace, with a beautiful blue gem shaped like a triangle dangling at the end.
Long earrings with matching blue gems swayed gently from her ears.
Her hair was tied into a neat bun, exposing her long, graceful neck, with two soft strands of hair framing her face.
She also wore elegant sleeves that almost covered her hands.
She kept checking her makeup in a small mirror.
She had put extra red blush on her cheeks just to hide the real blush underneath.
She couldn’t afford to look nervous right now, today she planned to confess!
"I really went all out, didn’t I?" she muttered while fixing her lipstick.
She had wanted to dress more simply, but the mini Rosalinas inside her head strongly insisted she should look extravagant.
"You’re representing all of us, not just yourself!" they had said.
Honestly, she also wanted to look her absolute best on her first real date with Julius... so in the end, she went full glam.
’Haa... why is time moving so slowly?’ she thought, glancing up at the sky.
Their meeting time was 10:30, but she hadn’t slept at all last night.
She had spent hours preparing.
When dawn finally came, she was already completely ready.
So she ended up arriving here a full hour early.
"Let’s see..." She held up the mirror again and carefully fixed her eyebrows.
"I should look annoyed today. I’ve already been acting so cold toward him...so it would be easy."
’Let’s make sure this date becomes memorable,’ Rosalina thought, already planning everything in her head.
"First, I’ll act normal when he comes to pick me up," she whispered to herself.
"Then I’ll snap at him a little, behave a bit cold like my usual self. As the date goes on, I’ll act more and more annoyed until he starts feeling really bad."
She smiled to herself, quite satisfied with her evil little plan.
"And when the date is almost over and we’re star-gazing... right when he expects me to be even ruder, that’s when I’ll propose!"
Her cheeks flushed pink as she imagined the scene.
"I’ve also brought all the paintings I’ve drawn since I was a child." 𝕗𝐫𝚎𝗲𝘄𝐞𝕓𝐧𝕠𝘃𝕖𝐥.𝐜𝚘𝚖
"They’re safely stored in my ring. Once the moment is perfect, I’ll pull them out."
She nodded happily to herself.
"He’ll be completely shocked when he sees all those paintings of himself, from when he was a cute little boy until now."
"Then he’ll look at me with wide, surprised eyes... and I’ll go down on one knee and confess!"
After that, they would secretly date for a few years.
Once she was strong enough to take control of her family, she would get her revenge.
Then both of them would live happily ever after.
This was her perfect master plan, and just thinking about it made her feel incredibly excited.
But for all of that to happen, she needed to become strong, strong enough to dominate everyone!
As she was lost in her thoughts, imagining every step of her perfect confession, her lips slowly curled into a faint smile without her even realizing it...
Ding!
A clear bell rang through the air.
Rosalina quickly turned toward the sound, her attention snapping back to reality.
Not too far away stood a small clock tower, and as her eyes moved up toward it, she saw the time.
It was finally 10:30.
"Haa... finally," she let out a soft breath, and the excitement that had been building inside her all morning gently surfaced on her face.
The long and painful wait was finally over, and just thinking about it made her chest feel lighter.
She raised her hands and lightly slapped her cheeks, forcing herself to calm down.
Taking a slow breath, she lifted her chin with grace and stood up from the bench, her posture returning to its usual elegance.
Without glancing around, she began walking forward in a composed manner and soon stopped at the edge of the road, her gaze fixed straight ahead as if she had no reason to look anywhere else.
Yet behind that calm and perfect expression...
Thump! Thump! Thump! Thump!
Her heart was pounding loudly, almost as if it was trying to escape her chest.
Even then, her face did not change in the slightest.
Her smooth and flawless expression remained steady, her sharp jawline facing forward as though nothing in this world could disturb her peace.
She simply stood there and waited.
One... two... three... four... five...
Time slowly passed, stretching longer than it should have.
After a few minutes, Rosalina’s brows gently furrowed as a faint hint of confusion appeared on her face.
She turned her eyes back toward the clock tower once more.
’10:35?’
Her eyebrows rose slightly, and the calmness she had been maintaining began to crack just a little.
’Where is he?’
Her chin slowly lowered as she began to look left and right, her eyes searching for any sign of him.
But the road was empty.
Completely empty.
That, more than anything, felt strange.
At this time of the day, this part of the city was usually filled with people moving around, voices blending into a constant background noise, but now, there was nothing.
"...Wait."
Her body stilled for a moment as her thoughts caught up with what she was seeing.
’Where are the people?’
She looked around again, this time more carefully, her eyes scanning every corner she could see.
Still nothing.
Not a single person.
Not even an animal wandering around.
Her brows tightened as uneasiness slowly crept into her chest.
This was not normal.
At this hour, this place should have been lively and noisy, yet it felt oddly quiet, almost as if the entire area had been abandoned.
Her gaze moved into the distance again, searching more carefully this time.
Still no sign of Julius.
No movement.
No life.
Her nose wrinkled slightly in irritation as her thoughts began to wander.
’Where did he get stuck?’ she wondered, trying to come up with a reasonable excuse.
She leaned her gaze farther ahead, almost hoping he would suddenly appear out of nowhere.
But nothing changed.
And then, a thought slowly crept into her mind.
’...Could it be...’
’Did he forget?’
The moment that thought formed, her heart sank heavily.
The color slowly drained from her face, and the excitement she had been holding onto began to fade.
She had been looking forward to this day for months.
She had wanted this date more than anything... and Julius had wanted it too.
So why was he late?
’Where the hell are you?’
Her breathing became slightly uneven as she nervously bit down on her lip, her fingers curling ever so slightly.
’Was he... playing with me?’
That thought struck deeper than she expected, and her chest tightened painfully.
The calm expression she had carefully maintained began to crumble, her face turning sour as if she was on the verge of tears.
’Please... please... Julius, don’t betray me...’
’You’re the most important person in my...’
Just as her thoughts were about to spiral completely..
The distant sound of horse hooves suddenly echoed through the empty street, breaking the heavy silence.
Rosalina’s head snapped toward the direction of the sound, her eyes widening slightly.
"...Julius?"
