Chapter 117: Volume 8 - CH 9

I Will Avoid the Male Lead and Make a Harem

Vol. 8: Madam Devil

Chapter 9

The absurd situation surprised and stiffened even the butler.

“You devil! Stop bullying my lady!”

Penny excitedly beat Camilla with a silver candlestick.

Camilla collapsed on the floor as Penny swung her around like a windmill.

“Argh!”

A lady who has never done anything rash could never stand up to Penny’s power.

“Ru-ruben! What are you doing, Ruben!”

Camilla yelled, barely raising her head. Only then did the butler, who had finally come to his senses, intervene between the two women.

“Are you crazy!? Can’t you take that hand off right away?!”

The door opened in response to the loud noise, and Cedric ran in.

He couldn’t make sense of the situation.

“No, what is……?”

Camilla was face down on the ground, while Penny clung to her like a wrestler, beating Camilla with a silver candlestick.

Even the butler was having difficulty removing Penny.

“Cedric! Put this crazy woman in jail right now, Cedric!”

Camilla screamed helplessly.

Bruk-

“Shut up, you devil bitch!”

“Argh!”

Penny shrewdly hit Camilla until, after the final blow, Cedric grabbed her hand.

“What are you doing, Penny?”

Cedric, seriously taken aback, urged Penny in a hurry.

“Cedric, kill her!”

Camilla raised her bloodied face, her brow ripped.

“That scumbag insulted me! Let us render a summary judgment for insulting the Lord! Cut her throat right now!”

The sin of insulting the Lord is extremely serious.

Without a trial, Penny could have been decapitated on the spot, as Camilla stated.

The situation was critical. Camilla’s appearance was equally disastrous.

Her normally neat hair was tousled, and her dress was ripped. The blood that poured from her face was spattered all over the place.

“Kill her! Kill that scumbag right now!”

Camilla screamed angrily.

This would be the first insult in her life.

“Why did you do this, Penny?”

Cedric sighed at Penny as if he didn’t understand it at all.

She jumped to save me, but it was too risky. She overreacted emotionally.

‘She should have considered the consequences…’

It was at that point that I decided to intervene.

“Do not be deceived, Commander. That person is not the Madam!”

Penny said, pointing her finger at Camilla with her bright eyes.

“Madam has been possessed by the devil!” It’s obvious!”

“Wh-what?”

Camilla frowned exasperatedly at her, leaning on the butler’s arms.

Penny looked Camilla in the eyes and told Cedric the truth.

“Unless the Madam is possessed by the devil, how could she order Lady Selina to strip naked in front of all these people?”

“……”

Cedric’s cold stare shifted to Camilla.

“She even asked that idiot bastard if he could paint Lady Selina naked and ordered her to strip naked. Ha!?”

That ‘idiot bastard’ was, of course, referring to Isaac.

“If that woman is our madam, who loves and cherishes our lady as if she were her own daughter, she would never say such a thing!”

The drawing room was filled with the sound of a high-pitched voice.

Penny didn’t appear to be scared of anything.

“Lady Selina is not even a street prostitute, but the count’s daughter, so how could she speak such nonsense to her?”

Penny’s eyes seemed to emit lasers as she stared Camilla down.

“The devil is clearly wearing Madam’s skin! I have to beat that devil to death to save the madam!”

In the drawing room, there was a deafening silence.

‘It’s cold. Too cold.’

Where did she get that kind of urge?

Of course, if it wasn’t Penny, it would have been me who flipped everything upside down……

‘But she’s a commoner.’

So, even if she was sentenced to death for beating Camilla, a noblewoman, there was nothing I could do.

If it was not for Cedric who opened that door and came in, but another escort, Penny would have been decapitated as Camilla ordered.

“Countess.”

A voice as cold as ice flowed from Cedric.

Camilla flinched and grabbed the butler’s sleeve, embarrassed.

“Is all of that true?”

Cedric reached for the handle of his sword. He looked as if he would kill with his sword right away if it were true.

“Aigoo, I was wrong! Please save me! I just responded because I thought the Madam was joking with me!”

Because Cedric’s aura was overly vicious while holding the handle of his sword, Isaac fell flat on his face and began to beg.

Camilla rolled her eyes around, trying to figure out how to get out of this embarrassing situation.

But there was no way for her to get out.

‘Don’t tell me, are you going to faint?’

It seemed right from the way she flipped her eyes.

‘I’m not going to lose!’

I decided to take the initiative.

“Ah……!”

“Lady!”

Penny came running to me as soon as I fell. But Cedric accepted me before she did.

“Selina!”

It was as fast as light.

“C-commander, M-madam has also fainted……”

“Open the door! Selina has collapsed! Go ahead and call the doctor!”

Cedric picked me up and walked out the door loudly.

“Madam fainted as well……”

Camilla, who had missed the timing, was eventually left alone in the drawing room with the butler.

⇺⇺⇺⇼⇻⇻⇻

“Madame has gone insane!” I am certain of it! Commander, you must immediately place her in an underground prison!”

Furious Penny shuddered and enthusiastically raved to Cedric.

She told Cedric everything that had happened in the drawing room without skipping a beat.

She was in the middle of telling the story.

“Even if Lady Selina is a street child, she shouldn’t be able to do that.”

Cedric remained silent after hearing all of Penny’s words.

Cedric remained silent after hearing all of Penny’s words.

“This is not the first time, Commander! Madam always humiliated the lady in front of other nobles in this manner!”

“……”

“Even though I know better than anyone how fragile and shy my lady is!”

Camilla used to scold Selina in front of a designer who came to take her measurements, or when my tutor was with me, she would curse at her for not being good at reading. That is how the situation has been.

After hearing it, Selina had no choice but to develop a closed and timid personality.

Selina may have grown increasingly afraid of going out and meeting new people.

“…… I’ll just smoke a cigarette and return.”
