Chapter 7 - (confusion ii) A villain??

"What angel is she talking about? Do you think it's the name of her next target" one of the maids whispered nervously.

"What's wrong with Lady Cece?" another one whispered.

The second one gasped softly, her eyes widening. "Do you think… Is it punishment from the Beast God? For doing too many bad things?"

"Shut up!" another hissed immediately. "Do you want to end up like the others? What if she hears you?"

Meanwhile, Elena who was tired of waiting for the Angel who sewed her dress frowned. "Lady Cece?" Her finger slowly pointed at herself.

"Me?"

The maids immediately lowered their heads further, trembling with fear. "Ahhh... no... no that's not what we meant, My Lady…" one of them answered carefully.

Elena scoffed. "Okay." She used to be a girl who roamed the streets to help people from those lifeless monsters and boom! Is she the daughter of a lord?

She nodded slowly. "Okay… this is getting worse." Her gaze swept across the room again, this time more seriously. "You people… who are you?"

The maids froze, confusion flashed across their faces before they quickly lowered their heads again.

"What is she talking about?" one of them whispered.

"fool! It's another trap to get us beheaded, let's just play along!"

"We are your maids, Your Highness," one of them replied softly.

"My what?" Elena's eyes widened, no matter how she tried to understand them or the situation, it was always confusing.

"Your maids."

She glanced at them, then looked around the room again, then back at them, then back at the room.

'Heaven assigned me, maids?'

"So let me get this straight," she cleared her throat, pointing at them, then at herself. "You're telling me… I live here?"

"Yes, Your Highness."

"And you serve me?"

"Yes, Your Highness."

"And I'm… important?"

The maids hesitated for a split second before nodding quickly. Elena took a deep breath, then exhaled slowly. "Ah."

She turned around and walked back to the bed, sitting down heavily as she placed her hand on her forehead.

"Yeah… I've definitely lost my mind."

She was just about to lie down again and accept her fate when a sudden sharp sound rang in her head.

Ding.

Elena froze. "Who's there?" she yelled, startling the maids. She quickly sat up and looked around. 'Is it a trumpet or what?'

[System Activated…]

Then she realised that the voice didn't come from outside, it came from inside her head.

"Who are you?"

[Hello Host.]

She stood up immediately. "Hope it's not what I'm thinking?" she mumbled.

[My name is Kelly. I will be assisting you from now on.]

"I don't need assistance!" she snapped, looking around the room like she could find the voice physically.

The maids flinched at her sudden outburst. "Your Grace?"

"Not you!" she pointed at them quickly, then at her head. "This one!"

The maids looked even more confused, she gritted her teeth. "Four of you, get out!!"

The maids looked at themselves and fled out as they had finally seen freedom.

Meanwhile, the voice continued.

[Host has been successfully bound.]

[Memory synchronisation will begin shortly.]

Elena frowned. "huhhh what?" Before she could say another thing, a sharp pain shot through her head.

Her body stiffened, her eyes widened as unfamiliar images flooded her mind all at once, memories that weren't hers…

Cruel laughter, strict commands that made servants tremble, blood everywhere, humans with tails and fox ears… fearful expressions, the name Cece echoing repeatedly.

.

Her breathing became heavy as she staggered slightly, grabbing onto the edge of the bed for support.

What shocked her most was the fact that this Cece in question was extremely beautiful… and the face was actually hers, the matured and pro version of her face, only the face but not the body, but because of her stupidity, she ruined her own face with a herb, she heard it from someone it changes someone's real face to another face!! So stupid! She's a greedy pro, she wants everything for herself!! but…

"What… is this…?"

[Integrating host identity…] the voice remained calm, as if what was happening wasn't breaking her apart from the inside.

More memories crashed into her and more emotions, more things she had never done…

But she somehow remembered. Then suddenly, it stopped where Cece planned to faint to let the Supreme Alpha accept her as his mate because she had already chosen him… but meanwhile, the food she ate last was poisoned, making it more real… this scared her father, one of the high rank lords in the beast world, he almost turned the whole tribe upside down to bring his precious daughter back!

He didn't care whether she pretended or not, he's the type that likes to spoil his daughter no matter what…

"Beast…" Elena muttered… she had heard about it and had read about the beast world and system… but it was happening to her is weird… very weird, although she had once wished for it, but she never thought it would happen.

The funniest part was the fact that the real owner of the body had a lot of bad and cruel traits that disgusted her, especially the strict rules she made in her father's territory, people were forced to obey even if it hurt them!

She used force to get what she wanted, and if the person refused, she slit their neck…

That's really cruel… and judging by the way the situation was… "let's say we are in a story kingdom, there's always a hero, main characters, supporting characters…" she paused nervously. "What am I?"

[Host should calm down and not be angry, everything happened for a good reason…]

"That's not the question," Elena shook her head as she looked at the window in a daze. "What am I?"

[Villain]

Elena froze at this reply, even if she had already had bad feelings about it, and with the memories that had finally settled into place, her lips parted slowly. "Villain…" her voice came out as a whisper.

She looked around in horror. "You stole me from my own world and made me a villain in this world?"
