Chapter 2 Part2 (1/2)
First, I want to apologize for such an extended break But, things should be getting back on track I have a new schedule: I will alternate 1 release of NHAD and Violant of the Silver per week That means if NHAD is uploaded on week one, then Violant will most likely be uploaded on week two, and so forth Villain Days will be released sporadically until its completion
I want to clear up so from chapter 12 I accidentally called the “dutchess’ power of attorney” the “lady’s authorization” I’ve changed that for both that chapter and this one
I also changed all instances of “Violant-sas consistent
To those who have read ahead in the raws, is Legion’s speech patterns h he studied under a lord for years as a knight, he had grown up in a merchant’s home I don’t wish to write him out of character

The petite and lovely ion, as told to his face that he is a foe, feels his emotions swirl in his chest like a storer
“It’s refreshi+ng to be hated” (清々しい嫌われぶりだな)
“Of course Whether huhten Mr Vio! If you understand, then leave! I have work to do! Do not disturb me!”
“Your…for¹…If you think that would make your words more polite, then you’re sadly mistaken”
“Be quiet! Meanwhile, I austed by how different your speech and attitude is in Mr Vio’s presence compared to when he is not around”
