The Villainess Princess’s Heartless Paladin

But rather than showing a scared face, Valerie smiled confidently at Helene causing her to flinch in shock.

”Greetings to you, sister. ”

She wished Helene in very perfect etiquette that dumbfounded everyone present at the scene.

As expected from them. This surprising reaction satisfies me! Valerie giggles to herself and walks out of the royal palace with Mary ignoring her sister.

Mary walks close to her and whispers, ” Your highness, princess Helene was glaring at you angrily before. ”

” Let her be, Im no longer scared of her. ”

Mary was silenced after hearing those words. All she heard from the head maid was that the youngest princess Valerie is very rude, lazy and doesn like to come out of her room. And most importantly she is scared of her step siblings but the case seems opposite now.

Mary took a deep breath and got inside the carriage with Valerie. After an hour of riding they arrived at the top clothing store of imperial city.

” We are here, princess. ”

Mary helped her get down from the carriage while bearing the sharp glances of people crowding over there.

” Isn that an emblem on the carriage of the royal family? ” One of the men murmured curiously.

” Whos that beautiful princess? ”

” Don you know shes the useless youngest princess Valerie! ” One of the women among the crowd answered.

” Oh thats why there are knights with her , only one maid has accompanied… ”

” Yeah, who would like to get insulted by staying with a trashy princess! ”

Those loud gossips and murmuring were intentionally done to insult the Princess. Though she made her debut in society at the age of 17 but because of lacking support from the Emperor and having no connections with strong families made her a useless princess among the aristocrats.

” Princess, they are too much! ”

” Shh, don get worked up Mary. ”

Valerie smiled brightly at her , those rumours and gossip she was used to.

” But… they
e bad mouthing… ”

” Let them do, we shouldn get ourselves interrupted by such rumours! ”

Ignoring them, Valerie and her maid entered inside the shop where she was greeted by the owner as they can neglect the royalty.

Valerie pointed towards the line of fashionable gowns and said, ” From here to here, Ill buy them all. ”

” W-What ? ”

The owner blinked her eyes thinking she just misheard something. Theres no way a princess can buy all those new edition gowns which launched just yesterday.

” I want them all. ”

Valerie smiled which gave off chilling vibes enough to make that owner realise her mistake for commenting on the royal members capability.

” P-Pardon my rudeness , your highness. Ill pack them all. ”

Mary forwarded the box of gold coins towards the owner.

” I hope this is enough for those dresses or you want more? ”

” T-This is enough your highness… ”

That astonished look on the owners face made Valerie chuckled. It was like slapping that rude owner with gold. Valerie continued to buy herself pairs of shoes, jewelleries to decorate her closet with them.

” Finally it was done, lets return back. ”

” Y-Yes your highness… ”

Marys voice hitched upon seeing the gorgeous princess in front of her.

” Do you like this dress on me , Mary? ”

Valerie asked, examining her newly brought gown that she decided to wear. With the help of the shops workers, Valerie dolled her up like how a Princess should be. This was the first time she wore such a glamorous dress and expensive jewellery.

” It perfectly suits you , princess. ”

The rumours of the youngest princess of the Obela Empire being the most gorgeous lady is definitely true.

” Hmph! Princess Ill not let your reputation down because of stupid rumours. ”

Mary cheered with a serious expression glaring at the other noble ladies present in the shop.

” Is that so? Thank you in advance Mary. ”

Valerie smiled while getting inside the carriage but suddenly there was a commotion in the distance shop. She saw a group of knights thrashing one young man and excusing him of stealing stuff from the shop.

I wouldn bother myself with this in my past life but its different now, Valerie murmured under her breath and got off the carriage.

” Princess, where are you going? ”

” To become saviour. ”

The confusing answer made Mary roll her eyes in thoughts. But soon it became clear when she saw the Princess heading towards the commotion created by knights and one man .

But before Valerie could appear in the middle of commotion something strange happened. The knights were sent flying in the air and a strong aura formed around the man who was getting beaten up.

” D-Demon… hes not human… ”

The knights who were beating that man ran away from him out of the blue. Valerie peeked at him from the crowd and saw that mans face which was roughly covered with his cascade black long hair. The amber eyes added extra horrifying to his vicious mark on his face stretching from his forehead to his right cheek.

And the next moment that man roared angrily unleashing great amounts of mana energy towards the nobleman who accused him of being a thief.

” Capture that demon. ”

Royal knights arrived at the scene immediately but they weren able to get close to that man. His aura was so strong that failed the royal knights mana energy.

” I-I am not a demon… ”

That man murmured and fell to his knees. Probably because he has exhausted his mana energy. The royal knights hurriedly handcuffed him in magical chains, kicking him mercilessly.

” Interesting! ”

Valerie smiled at the scene, although she was disappointed because her plan of creating a saviour image failed.

” Come lets return back Mary. ”

” But aren you going to solve this issue? ”

” I changed my mind, ” Valerie replied and got inside her carriage. She smiled because today was worth shopping as she got to witness such a powerful mana user.

In the royal palace

” Mary asked the other maids to help you arrange my closet with the stuff Ive brought. ”

Valerie ordered before heading towards the main palace.

” Okay princess but where are you going? ”

” To the emperor. ”

Valerie walks towards her fathers office which was in the main palace. She was a bit nervous as this will be her first time visiting her father like this. In past life she never had a talk with her father because all her needs were taken care of by a butler and also because she hated him.

Ah! I don plan on stopping hating him but I need to make my existence known to him.

She said so because her existence is itself a shame in the eyes of her father. Being born from a maid made her illegitimate daughter of the emperor.

He shouldn have fallen in love with my mother in the first place, that sucks!

She clenched her fist murmuring because the emperor who was the so -called father of Valerie did nothing when the empress imprisoned Valerie s mother in the dungeon. There she gave birth to Valerie and breathed her last.

I will never forgive him for what my mother suffered because of him…

She arrived at the office of emperor and the knights stopped her.

” Princess, his majesty is busy with official work now. ”
