6 6 (Villainess 1)

"Valentine Helian Freud! With your atrocious conduct within the school and towards its students you are hereby expelled from the Academy and your engagement cancelled!" my fiance, Crown Prince Edward Xyver, announced 'my sentence'in front of everyone with a smug look on his face.

"Typical." I scoffed at him, opening my fan. He and his lackeys glared at me.

"How dare you disrespect the Crown Prince!" one of them shouted. Out of the corner of my eye, I saw the King facepalming while the Queen was patting him on the back. With a quick sweep around the ballroom, I also located the parents of the lackeys looking quite distressed.

'Heh. I wonder why. ' Smirking at them, I spoke, "Of course I'll disrespect His Highness." giving emphasis on his title.

"When has His Highness ever acted like a true Crown Prince of this kingdom? And you bastards as well." closing my fan, I used it to point at them. "Have any of you even fulfilled your duties? To think that we'll be leaving Deanios to these airheads can make anyone forsee the destruction of our beloved home."

"Why you little-!" Thane Gyros, the son of the Head of the Knights, charged at me.

Raising a brow, I opened my fan once again and intercepted his attack. Immobilising him I bent down.

"Weak." I whispered in his ear. Afterwards I pushed him away without a problem.

"I didn't waste 12 years of my life in Queen Training to be beaten by a bunch of half-baked nitwits." Glaring at me even more, I chuckled.

"I think it's time to settle the accounts." Taking out an orb, the size of my palm, I smiled.

"This orb right here ladies and gentlemen, is part of the Mage Tower's newest security system. It acts as a surveilance device to ensure a person's safety. It also records it and stores it within the archives to be pulled out during trials to prove guilt or innocence." whispers started as they looked at the object in my hand uneasily.

"Of course these items are only placed at public places and would not infringe your privacy. The school has been using these for two years now. Of course, none of the students probably remember as this was announced during the opening ceremony." I didn't forget to add a mocking tone in my voice as I explained.

"The one in my hand is a projection orb. It is normally linked to the main system so it has access to all data. But since I brought it here with me, the data within it is simply ones that are beneficial for me." The little snake within the monkey and his friends paled significantly. My lips turned up in amusement.

I started to transfer my mana to the orb while speaking, "It can show specific scenes in different areas so long as you say the time, date and place you want to see. For example-"

"Stop!" the snake shouted. The prince and the others looked at her in shock.

"Fleur?" Edward asked. What a waste of a name honestly. Fleur Andrada Shein. Daughter of Duke Shein, and a snake.

"I-I-" she started stuttering. Realizing what she did.

Ignoring them I spoke, "Show me the Academy Garden's Inner Area in the afternoon of Day 12, Month 10, Cycle 186."

It immediately showed the scene of Edward and his little snake wrapped in each others arms by the giant tree. Everyone gasped in astonishment. Or was it horror?

"Oh wow straight up porn." I muttered. Edward became red in embarrassment, screaming, "S-Stop that right now!"

Edward's naked back was seen as he moved on top of her body. I honestly wanted to puke. Thank God I didn't open the sound function on this.

"Show the 3rd Alchemy Laboratory in the morning of Day 15, Month 10, Cycle 186." the scene changed and another round of gasps were heard.

Thankfully, it was just a kissing scene between her and Albert, the Court Mage's 2nd son, this time.

"I think that's enough cheating evidence for now. It's time to prove my innocence."

"Club Room 25, 4pm, Day 1, Month 10, Cycle 184. Sound function on. "

"How dare that b*tch stop me!" a sneering voice was immediately heard. "Does she really think she can keep her fiance? I just need to act pitiful and he'll immediately come rolling around in my hand." everyone went silent. The expression in the projection was completely different from the one they knew.

Edward's eyes widened in shock. "You-"

"Although the others are really good looking too. I might just get all of them for myself if I can't help it." she smirked. "After being able to get a face this beautiful, why can't I use it to do what I want? I can just pay those poor baron daughters to pretend to bully me and blame it on her."

She started laughing, "Money, power and looks. What more could a girl want?"

"Th-Those are lies!" Fleur cried out. She immediately started her act as tears fell from her eyes.

"Why are you doing this me? I didn't want to fall in love with him" she even started sobbing between her sentences. 'Well, well, well.'

Despite seeing the truth and feeling distraught over it. The idiots still chose to comfort her.

"You and I both know that the mage tower has a special insignia that only mages with high positions can reveal. And this system is impossible to replicate as the layers upon layers of its build took 8 years to build and constantly improve." Ignoring her increasing cries, I went towards the King and Queen.

"Your Majesties, I apologize for the horrendous display earlier but I've already tried to fulfill my part as his fiancee. I believe remaining engaged to one another would be more detrimental."

"You're just like your father." The King mumbled, complaining. The Queen elbowed him slightly before answering.

"Of course you'll be well compensated for the disgrace our son has caused."

Taking out a a document I handed it to them. "I've already made a list for that Your Grace."

"Oh." Their mouths twitched upon reading the contents.

"This is to compensate for the years wasted on training along with the mental and emotional damage done to me during their affair. Also compensation for my ruined reputation and the disgrace to my family name. And finally, the possibility of not being able to marry properly due to everything."

"Has this been discussed with your father?" and as if on cue my father appeared.

"Yes, Your Majesty. We also considerably decreased it from the original amount with respect to the benefits my daughter gained from the Queen Training."

"How thoughtful James. You money grubber." The King hissed quietly at my father.

"You should've reconsidered the engagement when I asked you to Henry." My father answered back quietly, smiling.

Sighing, His Majesty spoke again, "The compensation will be done accordingly. In addition to that, the parties involved in this incident will also have to assist in paying as an apology to Miss Freud. The engagement will also be dissolved.

"Your Majesty!"

"Father!?"

"Please rethink this!"

Before anymore protests could arise, he held up his hand to silence them. Me and my father bowed in thanks.

Looks like it's another win for the Villainess.
