I, the Villain, Want to Save Myself, But the Yandere Heroines Disagree - Chapter 94

“Oh, you said Orson left, alright.” Sitting in the study, Elsa heard Aphro’s report and said indifferently.

Then, she looked up.

“I forgot to tell you, Aphro, if anyone asks about Orson’s situation, do me a favor and say that Orson is resting in the room and outsiders should not disturb him casually. If the other party really wants to see Orson, just tell me.”

“Why do you want to do this, Your Highness the Princess? In Orson’s current condition, if he wants to go out, reporting to His Majesty is also possible, isn’t it?”

“If I were to report to Father, Father would send people to constantly ‘protect’ him. What he needs to do is relatively secretive, so it’s not convenient for him to be followed.”

Elsa put down the book in her hand and stood up.

“In any case, let’s tidy up Orson’s room first. At least it should look like someone has lived in it.”

“Alright,” Aphro heard this and sighed.

It seemed there was something Orson had to do that he had to hide from His Majesty’s eyes, but Elsa, who was also a member of the Imperial Family, agreed to Orson’s actions.

It seemed that Orson and Elsa should have reached some kind of secret agreement.

The two tidied up the room assigned to Orson. From today onwards, Orson’s daily life would be entirely managed by Aphro. In this vast palace, the only person Elsa could feel at ease with was Aphro, who was an outsider.

In the room arranged for Orson, the two were making the room look lived-in.

As if to find something to talk about, Elsa looked at Aphro and spoke first.

“Aphro, do you remember I borrowed a set of clothes from you before?”

“Ah, I remember I gave you that set, didn’t I?” Aphro looked at Elsa in confusion. “What’s wrong?”

“Guess how Orson got out?”

“He is so capable, how would I know how he snuck out? Anyway, as soon as I turned around, he was gone.”

Aphro said this while tidying the bedsheets.

“Hehe, actually…”

…

A certain gate of the Imperial Palace.

The soldiers on duty at the gate rotated in three shifts, guarding the core of the Empire day and night. The problems that had occurred within the Imperial Capital these past few days forced them to be ten times more vigilant, guarding against any suspicious person mixing into the Imperial Palace.

However, compared to the strict entry policy of the Imperial Palace, exiting the Imperial Palace was considerably more lenient.

At this moment, a young woman in a black long dress walked from inside the Imperial Palace towards the side gate.

The passage for officials and nobles entering the palace to pay their respects was the main gate, while this was the passage for palace attendants to go out and purchase supplies during normal times.

Fewer people had been using this gate these past few days because of the rumors within the city. The various palaces and members of the Imperial Family had also started stockpiling supplies.

The guard at the gate heard footsteps behind him and quickly turned his head.

Upon seeing the young woman, a guard frowned.

It wasn’t that the young woman wasn’t good-looking. On the contrary, the young woman’s features were exquisite. Her black long hair cascaded behind her like a waterfall, and her purple eyes were like beautiful gems. She was also dressed elegantly and gracefully, and seemed to have the demeanor of a young lady.

However, the problem was that the other party was too tall. She was almost as tall as these two big soldiers.

They had seen maids coming out of the palace before, and most of them were of the petite and cute type. They should have had an impression of a maid this tall.

“Wait a moment, stop.” The guard said this, stopping the young woman.

“What is it, Sir Guard?”

“Miss, whose servant are you?”

The young woman heard this and frowned.

“When did you come here? You don’t even recognize me?”

“Heh, that’s strange. I’ve been guarding this gate in shifts for four or five years now. You don’t look that old. Do I have to recognize you?”

“I am Her Highness the Princess’s personal maid. I usually accompany Her Highness the Princess and enter and exit through the main gate. This time, Her Highness the Princess has something important she wants me to do. This is the identification given by Her Highness the Princess. May I leave now?”

Saying this, she took out an identification from the handbag she was carrying. After the guards checked it, they quickly stood up straight and respectfully handed the identification back to the young woman.

“May I leave now? Really, it’s an urgent matter, and you are wasting my time here…” The young woman took the identification and gave the two guards an annoyed glance.

“Apologies, it was our oversight. If we have delayed you, we can arrange a carriage to send you. May I ask…”

“No need,” the young woman said this, walked out through the gate between the two of them, and then disappeared before their eyes in an instant.

“She… left?”

“Mm, as expected of Her Highness the Princess’s personal maid. Her skills are excellent.”

“We weren’t marked by her, were we? What should we do if she makes things difficult for us in the future?”

“Impossible. Rest assured. Her Highness the Princess is not that petty-minded, and her maid would not be that kind of person either.”

“Alright, alright.”

While the two were discussing like this, the “young woman” had already walked a considerable distance.

“As expected, strict outside, lax inside,” “She” commented, sighing.

This young woman was Orson.

Earlier, to plan a way to sneak out of the Imperial Palace, Orson had borrowed a set of clothes from Elsa. Coupled with the wig he had used for disguise before, which was still in his storage ring, it was convenient for him to disguise himself and sneak out.

After all, if he left the Imperial Palace, he couldn’t just let others see his true face casually.

Quite a few people recognized his appearance. If he were to walk on the streets casually and be seen by someone who recognized him, and they filed a report with the Emperor, both he and Elsa would be in trouble.

Therefore, to make it so that others wouldn’t recognize him, there were only two methods. One was to cover his face, but this method was almost equivalent to exposing himself in the current Saint Roland City.

The other method was to dress up in a way that no one would recognize him.

Clearly, this was quite successful at the moment.

Orson’s foundation was originally very good. His face could be made softer with makeup, his physique could be hidden by wearing some oversized clothes, and his voice could also be faked with magic.

Through this method, Orson successfully fooled the guards at the entrance and walked out.

Of course, the most crucial reason among these was the identification given by Elsa. Otherwise, even if he argued until the sky fell, it would be difficult for him to get out.

Orson wandered around the streets. Many passing guards reminded Orson that a young woman should be careful and prioritize her safety. Orson just smiled and nodded, captivating quite a few guards, and at the same time, he arrived at his destination.

Standing before the door, Orson gently knocked on the door twice, then quickly knocked three more times. After waiting for ten seconds in place, the door was opened.

“You’ve waited a long time.” Orson said this, smiling as he walked into the room.
