My Man Is A Villain, So Am I!

Step step

It\'s time for women to spread their wings, a new revolution- Aurora & Irene

Each and every step they took was very powerful as they entered the church which needed to be reformed. The imperial family returned to their palace and every citizen also went back to their home but the church was all in chaos because of the sudden news of the head priest announced.

"Priest!!! Why didn\'t you discuss it with us??? How could we not know anything about this?" the priest was overwhelmed by the pressure from both the followers and the poison which traveled throughout his vein couldn\'t reply to any of their questions.

Two women in the dark grinned arrogantly with their fingers on their lip as they made their way lurking from the shadow to stand in front of them.

"The church will be reform today...as it is in my hands now." Herod came inside the church pushing the big door with the bouquets of the white rose to congratulate those two wearing the white dress with red heels.

They all went terrified because of his aura, went to the side making way for him as he walked to stand beside Aurora and Irene.

"The plan really goes well...thanks to Marinette." Herod smirked giving Irene the flower.

"Yeah, now the thing is left is..." Irene glanced her eyes direct at the priest, the priest clenched his hands in anger couldn\'t resist the urge to get the antidote any longer, dropped his image in front of his follower, and begged his head at Aurora\'s feet.

The arrogant human full of pride got his hand stepped by Aurora\'s hill, she was thrilled to do that in front of everyone.

Everyone was terrified, not a single one let out a voice as they were shocked seeing the cruelty in front of them.

"Beg me, idiot!!! Beg me!!! Beg me like the way those people beg you!!!!!" she laughed out loud and then brought out the antidote and swung it around over his head.

"Please...please...I did what you told me...please...I beg you...give me the antidote--"

Drip drip

The liquid from the bottle dropped on the priest\'s head as Aurora broke the bottle in anger, the priest suddenly went to lick the liquid on the floor with his tongue even the little droplet on Aurora\'s shoes.

His pain subside for a minute, Herod finally let out a laugh holding his hurt stomach, even Irene giggled seeing the pathetic man being fooled.

"Aww...too bad..." his heart immediately stopped and dropped dead on the floor spurting out blood from his mouth.

Those three turned their head to all the followers, everyone when seeing that started to run toward the door to leave the church when they realized what \'reform\' they spoke meant.

The door was shut by Irene\'s magic, many of them were tied with the rose vine just like the insect trapped in the spider\'s web.

Aurora then walked toward those who were spared that fell on the floor trembling in fear, she smirked then threw all the paper at them right in their faces.

"You...you monster..." they cursed her without reading the content of it, but when they did. Their eyes were filled with resentment and then turned to Herod nodding their head with tears rolling down their faces to find out such things happened in their church.

All of those followers which were caught in the rose vine were dead by the hands of those who were spared.

All of the papers were all about the disgusting deeds which the head priest and all of those who died did in the past thousand years like a tradition.

The church itself wasn\'t the holy place, it was hell, the execution place, no matter who was killed inside this church, no one will dare to be suspicious of this sacred place.

That was why...all of those scums killed people without mercy from generation to generation.

The door finally opened, a woman stepped inside the church, the one whose fate tangled with the church since the day she was born, the one who raised for their advantage, her fate was finally set free.

And that same person was the one who gave Aurora all the paperwork under the request of Marinette in the morning.

Empress Sylvia Madden, the saintess who was married off to emperor Christopher for the two factors to get power and advantage in exchange for her freedom.

"That old man finally died." her eyes were cold when they were glaring at the man whose finger pointed toward her that year choosing her to be the empress among the other woman they trained at the secret ground.

She was the empress wearing the crown with the blood of her friends who were like a family for her died to make that come true.

"Greeting your highness!!!!" all of them bowed to the empress as she made her way to priestess Irene to thank her for finally doing what she always wished to do all of those years of resentment.

"Thank you, your highness, for your help. We really appreciate it." Aurora bowed to her in a polite manner.

The empress shook her head the bowed down to them instead with the crown on her head, she sobbed when she finally got her revenge on all those scums who tormented her for years.

She was abandoned by her parents at the church ever since a baby, growing up just to be a tool for them. If she was useless, she wouldn\'t have survived till the very day.

Irene went to calm her down telling her everything will be alright, but at that moment, there was something wrong with her heart when she saw the empress cry.

A split image occurred in her perspective when she saw her brother from looking at the empress, it was the same, the same when her brother Eun-woo cried when he failed the exam for the first time.

She tried to shake her head using the excuse it was just her imagination but clenching her hands the whole time to hold back her tear when thinking of her dearest brother she left behind on earth.

"Let\'s work together to a better future!!!" Irene shouted to her followers in the church full of corpses. They cheered her on supporting her, that was when Aurora took a step back and hid in the corner crying.

Her brother...she finally remembered him after all those times, she was heartbroken and lonely, and the fact she would never be able to see him again hurt her the most.

"Brother..." she bit her lip crying on her knees, Herod was staring at her the whole time but chose to ignore it since the Mortel wasn\'t the type to comfort a person so he walked to tell Irene about Aurora instead.

When everything calmed down, Irene\'s followers started working together to bury the corpse and clean the blood. Herod saw the empress off, that was when Irene approached heartbroken Aurora tapping on her shoulder lightly.

"Aurora...we won."

"...yeah..." she sniffled wiping her snort and tears when Irene brushed off the dirt on the floor and sat beside her.

Irene put down her golden flower crown holding it in her hands.

"Aurora...you see...I\'m sad too at this moment."

"??" Aurora glanced at Irene who was sobbing the same way as her.

"Why??"

"My mother, she was sick couldn\'t get up from her bed...in my heart, I really want to run back from all of these and returned to my mother\'s arm but..."

"...you can\'t." Aurora finished Irene\'s sentence like she could read her mind.

Sitting on the floor beside each other was just two people wanting to go back to their dearest one but couldn\'t.

"...I could sell this crown for money, but when I read all the poor children who were raised to be tool at every church across the empire, I couldn\'t just do it. If it isn\'t me, then who?? Who will help them?? When will such an opportunity come again?"

"Irene..."

"...from the bottom of my heart, I was stuck between these...I can spend years working to help those children and send the money to my mother...but I miss her...I\'m afraid!! I\'m afraid when the time I finally rescued them all and returned to my mother, I\'m scared that my mother left me before I ever do that."

"...you\'re lucky to have such a loving mother, Irene." Irene\'s eyes became big when hearing the one who had such a rich woman as a mother said that to her.

"What about you??"

"...I never got a chance of receiving love from my mother...all I could see was her back when she praised my brother every time he got a trophy."

"Aurora...is that your other mother??"  Aurora\'s eyes shook when hearing that but she wasn\'t surprised when she looked at the couple of green eyes staring at her as they talked to each other.

Aurora nodded finally telling her honestly, "Yes, it\'s my mother from the world I came from."

Irene\'s eyebrows joined together in confusion which made Aurora giggle.

"I wasn\'t born in this world, I came from another world...the world which money came first, trophy, and paper of certificate."

"It wasn\'t much different from this world." Irene chuckled and leaned back against the world putting her head on her hand which was put on her neck looking at Aurora who finally smiled and let go of that sad face.

"That\'s true but you see...the world I came from was so advanced. They have car, airplane,..." 

Herod standing from all the way at the big door when hearing the girls finally laugh was finally relieved. He closed the door silently and guarded the door for them.

He sighed sitting on the ladder staring at the moon, "I really want someone like that..."

The moon was still the same from the year he was born, but the person who he asked for was no longer beside him. His wife, his beloved wife who gave him the life to the cruel world died many and many years ago.

No matter how much he tried to hold onto the world waiting for her incarnation to be born in the world again, she never appeared. It had already been two thousand years of waiting.

"...I miss you...Iris." when he finished saying that, suddenly the white dropped at his feet, a big callous hand picked it up. Their eyes met with each other for a moment.

The blue eyes and red eyes stared at each other in confusion, one was confused since that person was the first one who got inside his barrier without him noticing and the other one didn\'t understand why the woman who came to his house last night knew his name.

"How do you know my name, my lady??" he was blinking when giving Herod the white rose dropped on the ground.

"Ahh...I...I--" he was flustered when that pink-haired man suddenly caught him off guard like that.

He got up suddenly and closed his legs together since he had to keep his image as a woman.

"I was talking about someone else." he laughed nervously scratching his head.

"Ah, I see. Do you remember me? I\'m Aurora\'s cousin, I\'m here to pick her up."

"Really??? I will call her here then."

"Is she still busy??"

"Ah...yes...she is talking with the priestess at the moment."

"Okay then, I\'ll wait for her for a little bit." for the first time, Herod got his heart flustered by a man.

"I\'ve been curious, but have we met before??" Iris asked Herod twitching his finger shyly.

"No." Herod replied bluntly since he only got out of his tombstone just a few days ago.

"Ahaha..." it was awkward but somehow it wasn\'t uncomfortable for both of them.

\'He also has the same name, Iris, huh?\'

\'This woman...is pretty.\'

To be continued...!
