Chapter 16: 16

T/N: Today, I’d like to give a big thank you to my Cookie Donor Brooke and also to all the amazing readers who left comments on the last chapter! Thanks to you guys, I was finally able to better understand the economic situation of this novel . I was blown away by how knowledgeable you all are!! Seriously, thank you!!
Also, Sorry for the late chapter! I was taking a break and got obsessed with Korean manhwa XD Anybody else a fan of those VR MMORPG novels?? LMS anyone?? Lol
I mentioned it to the king earlier… . . but I wonder what the situation is actually like in those impoverished villages?
It’s probably not the greatest to talk about them so confidently like that without having seen them, right?
And… a picture is worth a thousand words so… I should probably try going there for myself, shouldn’t I?
But there’s no way that Father would willingly let me go… .
Plus, no matter how kind Mother is to me, or how much Oniisama dotes on me, I’m sure they’ll both be against it as well .
So how should I do this?
It’s a place that nobles typically wouldn’t visit after all .

And whenever I go out, I’m always either going somewhere with my brothers or Rosetta is accompanying me… . So that doesn’t afford me any opportunities either .
If I want to go, I’ll have no choice but to sneak out of the house by myself .
I’ll need to think this through carefully if I don’t want to get caught .
The only time when this might work is if I go during the middle of the night . But even then, I’ll still have to worry about being caught by the guards .
Ugh, it would be so great if I could just make myself invisible .

… . . Wait, yeah . All I need to do is become invisible… .
Magic exists in this world! Just because I’m not the invisible man doesn’t mean it’s impossible to become like him!

… . . But I still haven’t actually figured out how to use magic… . . And I still haven’t found any books even mentioning magic .
And, even if I managed to sneak out, I’d first have to walk to the neighboring town, and then from there I would have to walk to the woods located in the middle of it, and then walk through those woods to get to the impoverished village… . It’s too far away for me to get there and back in time .
I spread a map out on the desk .

…… . . Hm? It seems like the woods that are just behind our estate actually connect to the woods where the impoverished village is located! If I walk straight through from there, it’s not actually that far at all .
And even though there doesn’t appear to be any sort of path leading to the village, that doesn’t mean I wouldn’t be able to get there from here .
But the problem is that they’ve probably cast a magical barrier around the village that will prevent people from entering it from the woods… .
Since I possess my own magical power, I wonder if I would be able to pass through the barrier?
I just don’t know . And it’s not like I can ask someone about it… Or find a book to consult about it… Ugh, this isn’t going to be easy!

Should I just go for it anyway? Nothing ventured, nothing gained after all . And even if I can’t get through the barrier, then that just means I’ll have to search for a different way in .
It’s at least worth trying… . .
Alright! I’ve decided! I’ll go through the woods in the back and head straight for the impoverished village!
But even if I cut a straight line through the trees, the trip is bound to take quite a bit of time… . And I still can’t ride a horse properly yet… .
Not that riding a horse would help matters much since there isn’t a path anyway though .

I guess the only way to make this work is to set off as early in the evening as possible .
If I act like I’m going to bed around 9:00 PM and then sneak out from there, then this just might work .

It’s about 10 kilometers from here to the village, so with my current physical abilities, I should be able to get there in around an hour’s time… .
If I leave at 9:00, doesn’t that mean I’ll have plenty of time to look around then?
Plus, a 10 kilometer run will be great exercise!
… . But 10 kilometers in an hour… . Isn’t that a bit fast for an 8-year-old? I must be in pretty good shape for my age .
But that’s great! Since being a villainess means being able complete anything and everything with an excellence unparalleled by anyone else .
Once I’ve managed that, I should have no problem trampling on the heroine and making a fool of her!
And with that, all my plans are in place for the evening, so I head over to the library to spend the rest of my time reading .

T/N: Lol, I don’t know if the novel’s writing style is just slightly simpler than the manga’s, or if my skills are just lacking, but whenever I read the manga I just start to feel a little bad about myself XD HaruParty just has a way with words .
And with the second chapter of the manga for this going up on MangaDex, I’m once again a couple of chapters behind haha . It’ll be at least 3 chapters, if not more, before we get some new content… But I’ll do my best not to get ensnared by manhwa again and get those up for you soon!
Also, lol . It takes me 45 minutes at best to run/jog/walk a 5K… . And here Alicia is doing a 10K in an hour at age 8 . I’m just a tad jealous haha
