The Antagonist: The World Ends Theory
Chapter 8 - Rose Guide

After a weird chat with Hendrick. Also don't forget Hendrick's threat of beheading Clara if she makes a move. Now Clara is still in the same position after Avrim replaced Hendrick.

Clara opened her mouth and immediately swallowed the cold porridge. He was fed by Avrim because the old woman was still anxious about the incident last night.

Avrim wanted to pry the information in detail. But it will be difficult because Clara has just woken up from her sleep.

"It turns out Mr. Hendrick can be romantic."

Because of Avrim's words, Clara became curious about Avrim's true intentions.

"What did you say, Avrim? The venomous man was acting romantic? Your eyes must have been wrong!"

"That's right, miss. I saw him in person, Mr. Hendrick holding tightly onto the girl's hand."

Avrim re-inserted a spoonful of porridge into Clara's wide-open mouth. After swallowing it completely, Clara again - again became an impromptu reporter.

"What woman can make him like that?" Ask Clara with a mockery in it.

When he saw Clara, Avrim suddenly pityed Hendrick in his heart. Perhaps the man will growl himself with Clara's insensitive attitude. But Avrim chose silence, if leaked will not be exciting.

"But, Avrim. Strange, yes. This morning I was greeted with something 'great'! Unfortunately, it only lasted a little while. The poisonous man's attitude also softened when I just woke up. But his annoying nature came back again in just a few minutes. So upset!"

Clara chattered cheerfully, sometimes angry, sad or mocking. Well, since then Clara has been more expressionless. Avrim is happy that Clara is being more open to him.

"Avalee."

Because of the change of atmosphere that arrived - arrived. Avrim became a little surprised. "What's wrong?"

"What would happen if I were swallowed completely?"

Avrim was shocked. "Miss, that's never gonna happen! I'm sure everything will be fine. So Miss don't make me feel worried."

Clara laughed to melt the atmosphere. But it is no matter that his worries are even bigger than Avrim. Everything about Clara was closed so tightly, maybe Clara needed to threaten Duke Wayne and get the answer.

"I'll excuse you, Miss."

"All right."

Avrim went to her room, she felt that the letter she sent had gotten her reply. He took the letter from the pigeon's feet and opened it.

Avrim let out her breath. He misses his hometown enough. But His Highness his master, ordered himself to keep an eye on this weapon girl.

"This weapon has changed from its original nature. Doesn't that mean that His Majesty's previous sins have also been forgiven? No need to do this anymore. Why does His Majesty continue to feel guilty?"

...****...

Her night. Clara, who had been allowed to leave the residence at night, was now sitting in a garden filled with blue roses.

"The rose seemed to shine under the starlight."

Clara plucked a rose and cleaned the flower from its thorns with heart. Clara does not know, she likes blue roses because it likes or influences from the original Clara body.

Clara Scoleths has a favorite flower and it is a blue rose. That's why in the last novel volume, the cover image in the light novel is Hellen holding a sword belonging to Clara Scoleths and blue roses that propagate around it. The night sky sprinkled with stars unfolds as the setting.

"I don't understand. What does Clara Scoleths love about blue roses? Why did the author give Clara such a fondness for flowers. It's better if it's red."

Clara stared intensely at the blue rose that was already clean from her durin. Twist the flowers several times, looking for something interesting from the flower.

"What is interesting about this flower besides its appearance?"

"Huh?"

Clara looked back to find out who said those harsh words. And he saw someone in neat clothes as well as a frown on his face.

He should know who can say that.

"Why is Duke here?"

"This is my residence, why do you ask that?"

The bad nature. Reply to questions with other questions. It is as bad as the word - he said, even if physically he is not bad for the size of parents.

Lazy to argue, Clara looked back at the roses in her grasp.

"I thought because your nature and attitude changed, you wouldn't like the same thing. I was wrong." Cetus Duke Wayne's.

"Therefore I remind you not to be too confident." Clara laughed a little. "Oh yeah, what do you mean by that sentence?"

"Which one? I've spoken a lot." Duke Wayne's Eject.

"My family, there's something interesting about me. That's right?"

"There's no way you don't know."

"I'm not that bad. But you're right, I'm not as good as I look."

"What the hell are you talking about? After all who can 'see you'? Don't speak as if your face is famous among many."

That's true too. Since the abduction of Clara Scoleths. Clara became rarer to just surround her favorite blue rose garden.

It used to be in Freesia. Clara Scoleths often went out on missions to kill royal traitors or nobles with dark cases.

But when the government had changed, and fell into the hands of the son of the King himself. Clara Scoleths kills more often with a rather original target. It happened because the current King of Freesia was quite arrogant and vindictive.

Before he was kidnapped, Clara Scoleths ended up with a myriad of missions, the result being a new King of course. He used the government weapon arbitrarily - mena.

"Huh! Look - you see, I am Freesia's 'gold."

Duke Wayne sits on a park chair near the crouching Clara. Clara's nightgown was already scattered on the ground. Duke Wayne feels sorry for Avrim who needs to take care of him every day.

"really. You are their precious treasure. But as you once said. 'You're still human even if you don't act human'."

Huh huh? I ever say that? When's? What says it's Clara Scoleths? But what I read in the novel, Clara Scoleths never had a monologue with Duke Wayne. Before I wasekai, they should never have talked.

So, who is this old man talking about? Could it...

"Oh, don't think about it. It's been a long time and you're probably a lot older than me to remember all that."

Ck! I never really knew! I'm not forgetful. Why he talks so much to me. I think this is a bit off the original story.

Duke Wayne got up and left the rose garden. He left Clara stricken with confusion, perhaps this would happen in a prolonged manner.

Clara's sapphire eyes stared fixedly at Duke Wayne's back. "Who actually said that to him? There can't be another figure behind all this, can there?"
