The Villain Dreams Of World Peace

Chapter 1: I think I’ve been possessed in a Novel

The kingdom was overturned when news broke out that Muriel Storm could be the saint of the Oracle that came down for the first time in 12 years. 

People cautiously speculated that the Oracle was false or that the Temple’s existence was coming to an end because of the misfortune that befell them due to God’s wrath. 

Who is Muriel? 

She was the one who made the phrase “the typhoon blows” popular in the kingdom.
The meaning of a typhoon blowing at a ball or academy was used when someone caused a malicious disturbance to get people’s attention. 

Muriel has been synonymous with delusions, neurosis, forgetfulness, and mythomania since childhood. 

She seemed like a person who would do anything for fame. 

One day, she lied that she had frozen all the lakes where the creatures lived, and the other day she lied that she had developed a magic that could save a living person for a minute. 

Naturally, no one believed her.
Everyone knew how poor Muriel’s magic skills were.
Muriel could not produce a single flame that was the size of a small candle.
When she tried fire magic, there was thunder all of a sudden, and when she tried water magic, a spark exploded a kilometer away, causing disaster whenever Muriel tried to use the magic. 

Muriel was good at calmly lying.
Yesterday, she swore as if she would give up her life, but lied that she could not remember that the next day. 

How unshakably she lied! and whenever Muriel lied, one could not prove the lie’s authenticity with magic.
It meant that Muriel truly believes in her lies, so people were sick and tired of her. 

People were confused, lamented, and even amazed to hear that such a person might become a saint who will predict the threat of the royal palace. 

Some of the people who had not met Muriel in person said that the lies Muriel told as a child may have been a sign of becoming a saint, and that Muriel really predicted something.
But it was because they didn’t know anything. 

A saint is a person who sees the threat to the kingdom.
It was not about seeing one’s own future.
The saint predicted who the threat of the kingdom was caused by, when and where it occurred, and what the consequences were when the threat was not prevented. 

But what about Muriel’s lies? 

She wasn’t predicting the behavior of others.
She wasn’t interested in that.
Muriel was only interested in letting people know how special she was, how powerful she could be, and what strange actions she had done. 

If Muriel is a saint, is she herself the one who threatens the Kingdom? Muriel, who’s terrible at magic? 

People believed that Muriel was not a saint.
No, they really wanted her not to be it.
At that time, a second candidate for the saint was unveiled, and people were enthusiastic and relieved. 

The second candidate was Rovelia Dachini, loved by everyone.
She’s not just any lady, but a lady of the Guardian’s family.
Among the children of the Guardian family, there has never been a single saint in history.
So how special would she be? 

“The saint is Rovelia anyway.
It’s no use if I go.” 

“But don’t you have to go and meet the high priest to find out? And even if you’re not the Saint, how honoring would it be? You have to congratulate her sincerely, miss.
If you’re greedy, you’ll be punished.” 

The servant thought that Muriel was stubborn because of jealousy.
Muriel and Rovelia are the same age, so they have been compared a lot since childhood.
Perhaps it was not just a coincidence, but the two people born under the same star of fate competed for the glorious position of the Saint.
Even before the revelation, everyone is talking about Rovelia as if she’s already the Saint, so she must be grumpy. 

In the servant’s opinion, it was her jealousy that far outweighed Muriel’s lies or poor ability as an aristocrat.
It’s ugly if you don’t have the ability and are still greedy.
If she lets go of her greed, Muriel will be able to get married into a decent family and live comfortably and loved by her husband.
Even if the barrel is big, it only overflows with jealousy, she was afraid Muriel would lie and say she can see the future. 

The servant was going to soothe Muriel and persuade her, but she pushed her too much without realizing it.
Except for Katrina, who was Muriel’s tutor, the maid was the one who cared after Muriel the most in the mansion. 

Katrina was also Muriel’s tutor and a therapist who managed the delusions, neurosis, mythomania, and forgetfulness of the unstoppable lady.
After meeting Katrina, Muriel did not speak out obvious lies or false delusions anymore.

However, Katrina left for a foreign country three days before the oracle came down.
She said she could not return for three months at the shortest and a year at the longest.
Does she have to clean up after this immature lady until she comes back? 

The servant already wrapped her arm around her head. 

Muriel didn’t care what the servant thought.
She truly thought that the saint in the oracle was Rovelia. 

“The problem is not who the saint is.
The real problem is….” 

“My Lady, is there a problem?” 

When Muriel stubbornly held out that she would not go, Sharan’s knights came to her door and asked. 

Muriel hardened her pale face and bit her lips.
She was worried.
 

Even if I hold out a little longer now, I will eventually have to go to the royal family under the order of
