I will not die a Villainess's death

Chapter 159 159: The Grand Escape? [Pt2]



Rahan sighed in relief as soon as he managed to step out of the house. The closed door behind his back will only open if he allowed it to open or if someone else opened it from outside.

And Rahan was confident that no one will be able to find this house this deep in the forest for a good while longer.

It was a coincidence that Elysia had managed to find her way here. As for Adam and Eve, they had likely followed Elysia here. But that did not mean that someone else will be coming.

"Still, I should take precautions and hide this place behind a spell. There is no use in inviting trouble this close to the start of our plan's main phase."

Rahan opened his hand and started chanting the spell when he felt a sting on his neck. There was a sword that was resting on Rahan's neck that he did not recognize.

The sting caused by that sharp and cool blade on Rahan's neck caused him to freeze up and stop his chanting.

"Care to explain your 'plan' to me? I am interested to know more about who you are and how you managed to access this forbidden area."

Lucas Dirac's cold voice reached Rahan's ear and he cursed in his mind.

It had been a possibility to run into Lucas Dirac but Rahan had not expected it to happen this soon. If possible, Rahan wanted to be out of the way before any reinforcements arrived.

"If I said that this is an accident that I ended up here, would you believe me?"

Rahan tried to lie, knowing fully well that it would not happen. Lucas Dirac was not a person you could talk into submission.

And Lucas Dirac seemed to not be in the mood for any excuse Rahan had prepared to speak. His sword moved through the air at the speed of light and managed to nick Rahan in the arm.

"So, where is my sister? You might get a painless death if you tell me where she is."

Lucas Dirac looked like a demon right now. His blue eyes were shining with a vengeful light which made him look otherworldly.

Rahan knew that he had no chance of winning from him. Especially since his boss would kill him if he engaged with Lucas Dirac in such an open manner.

"Your sister is Elysia Dirac, right? Lovely lady but I don't know where she is. I never met her so…whoooaaahhh. Be careful where you are aiming your spell."

Rahan watched as the fireball was launched in his direction and he twisted his body to get out of the way.

The fireball caught the bush behind Rahan but it did not burn the bush. Instead, it caused the bush to disappear in a flash of light. In a matter of seconds, the bush had been reduced to nothing, not even leaving ashed behind.

"So, will you speak now or will you die by my hands?"

Lucas Dirac had a second fireball ready in his hand and he held it out toward Rahan. There was no way to get out of this without dying.

'Shit, now I have no other choice but to use the incense. I just need a minute to escape.'

Lucas Dirac was too close now and Rahan opened the bottle of incense he had on him at all times.

He should have allowed the scent to work its way through but he ended up throwing the incense toward Lucas in his fright. Lucas Dirac managed to cut the incense into two but the intensely sweet smell caused him to step back.

Rahan watched as the monsters started heading their way. Their footsteps caused the ground to shake and Lucas Dirac turned his attention toward that noise.

'Now is my time.'

Rahan rushed past the monsters, using their bodies to block the attack happening to him. The monsters were proving to be a good distraction for him.

'I am free. I am finally free and-'

"Where do you think you are going? Didn't Lucas ask you to stay behind? And I want you to stay behind as well since I have a lot of questions for you as well."

It was Sorias, lord of the enchanted forest who blocked Rahan's way. His foot landed on Rahan's back and the sudden momentum caused Rahan to fall face-first.

He looked up to see a child staring back at him with wide eyes. The face that child had was unfamiliar but it seemed like the kid recognized him.

"Y-You are Rahan. How are you alive? You were supposed to have died in that fire long ago."

It took a good while for Rahan to realize what the kid meant but as soon as he did, his nervous expression turned into anger and he lunged toward the kid.

"How do you know about it? Were you involved in it? Tell me who caused that fire and-"

The kid took a step back. He seemed surprised to see Rahan's anger and the child was surprised for real. The fear on his face snapped Rahan back before the pressure on his back did.

"You need to rest now since you are getting a little too emotional. Why don't you take a nap to cool yourself down?"

Rahan was conscious one moment and unconscious the next. Above him, Sorias watched Rahan with sharp eyes, making sure that he did not cause any more trouble.

The door shook as Eve tried to force it open but it did not open. It was going to take more than brute force to open it right now.

"Fuck this door. Is it not going to open?"

Eve complained, her temper getting a hold of her now. She felt a little claustrophobic because she was stuck inside a place she did not want to be.

She turned toward Adam to vent her anger but he seemed perfectly composed and even a little happy.

And he had all the right to be happy as well since was warped around Elysia's body in a tight hug.

"Adam, are you not going to help me? Elysia, say something to him to make him cooperate."

Eve turned toward Elysia next, her irritation taking over her mind momentarily. Only after seeing Elysia's annoyed expression calmed Eve down.

"I wish I could help you out but I don't think Adam is going to listen to me right now. He is a little…..preoccupied right now."

Adam's expression looked like he was drunk right now. He was leaning on Elysia, his full body weight pressing Elysia down.

It was only her willpower and her magic that were keeping her up. But her expression was twisted in an uncomfortable expression and Eve could see why.

Adam's hands were not ideal on Elysia's body. They were squeezing Elysia's breasts slowly over her clothes. And Adam's face was also pressed against Elysia's neck, inhaling her scent.

"Elysia, want a little help? Adam looks drunk right now."

"I guess the license's smell got to him as well. I don't know what was mixed in that incense but it must be extremely strong."

Elysia pressed her hand against Adam's chest to push him away but he just brute-force through her attempt to be let go.

Eve smacked her hand on the door and it opened as soon as she touched it. Eve fell through that open door, her expression twisted into one full of surprise.

She had not expected the door to open like this and this change in momentum caused Eve to fall face first and almost break her nose.

"Eve, are you alright? What are you doing on the floor?"

Sara asked in a surprised voice. Her appearance was unexpected but not unwelcomed. She was their savior, the one who would let them out of this unexpected mess they had found themselves in.

"So, it's a long story but that can wait. We need a way to knock Adam out before the soldiers see him. Adam has a reputation to carry after all."

Elysia could see that Sara had something to say to her regarding this. Her expression seemed troubled but she also seemed to be trying to hold back her laughter at the same time.

It was Eve who finally stood up and coughed to gather everyone's attention.

"Who cares about reputation at this point? We will have to knock Adam out any way to make him let go of Elysia. Allow me this honor."

Eve walked toward the pair who were warped around each other. Adam growled as soon as he saw Eve approach him and Elysia but he did not attack.

But his eyes did not stray away from Eve either as he watched her for the incoming attack. He would likely attack back as soon as he sensed hostility from her.

"Adam, you are a blockhead but I am so glad that you do not seem to have your intelligence right now. It would make this easier for me."

"No, Eve stop. Wait a moment-"

Eve chanted the spell and Adam fell asleep right on top of Elysia's body.
