Taming The Villainesses

Chapter 82.1



(EP-82.1) Club #1

082 – Adventure Club #1

The difference between the position of the perpetrator and the victim would not always be narrow and clear.

‘It was a joke.’

‘I never thought you’d take it so seriously.’

‘If you didn’t like it, you should have refused!’

This was the most common repertoire.

Elga was the same.

“… It was just a joke. Let’s not switch positions. Besides, what even is that? A leash?”

Elga looked at the collar I had pulled out and was bewildered. She might have been frightened by my sudden and decisive attitude.

The Elga right now was being weak and passive.

At this thrilling and amazing opportunity, I quickly racked my head on how to use this situation to make Elga turn over a new leaf.

Reversing roles was what I concluded.

Basically, I would have her live through the same experience I had.

“If Elga-nim really wants to admit her wrongs, then she has to go through the same thing I suffered. That way you will be able to understand my feelings a little.”

I thought back to Professor Stella’s lecture.

The time when the owner and their pet switched roles.

Back then, I thought, “Do I really have to do such a thing?”

But thinking about it now, the reversal of relationships was effective in making one reflect on their actions and realize the other side’s feelings.

Lectures really were helpful!

“Wear this around your neck for a year and follow what I say. If you don’t comply, I’ll smack you in the head or pull your ears as punishment.”

“…….”

Elga’s swollen eyes looked at me.

‘Is this bastard serious right now?,’ was probably what she thought.

“I am serious.”

“Gee, do I really have to do that? And for one year?”

“Elga-nim has bullied me for about a year so far. However, regardless of everything, I can’t possibly torment the Young Lady of a great family for a year so-.”

Seuk.

I spread out three fingers while Elga shuddered in response.

“Three, three hours…?”

“Three months. After the final exam, until vacation. Switch positions with me for three months. When we’re alone, I become Elga-nim’s master and Elga-nim will be my maid.”

Maid.

Elga growled like a beast after hearing the word ‘maid’.

… How could a human make this roaring sound?

“How dare you treat me, the eldest daughter of the Lioness Family, like a maid!? Theo, do you know what kind of beast is on our family’s flag!?”

“… A lion?”

“Yes! Of all the families on the continent, it’s only us, the Lioness, who can embroider a lion on our flag. That’s because we don’t bow our heads to anyone.”

‘I see.’

It seemed that the pride of being a Lioness was stopping Elga from wearing the leash.

“A lion cannot be confined! Much less wear a leash! That’s why it’s a lion!”

“Aren’t there a lot of lions in Borgia’s zoo?”

“… It’s just a metaphor!”

“…….”

I was at a loss for words. To be honest, I also thought it was a bit of a stretch.

No matter how sorry Elga felt for me, and even though she was repenting, wearing a leash was probably still too much.

I thought it was a good opportunity to put a collar around the cat’s neck….

Well, it couldn’t be helped.

Let’s be content with hearing an apology from Elga-.

At this time though, Elga suddenly screamed out loud.

“You, you are thinking about Mirna, that bitch, right now!”

“……?”

“Is it because I didn’t do what you said? You’re thinking that Mirna would have done it, wouldn’t you? That’s what you’re thinking! Are you going to Mirna now?”

Elga seemed to have misunderstood me. I didn’t answer and just looked at Elga.

Seueuk.

Elga anxiously rolled, frowned then closed her eyes tightly, all in one breath.

“… one month.”

“One month?”

“I’ll approve of this stupid plan for a month. That should be enough, right?”

Elga taking this initiative was a good thing for me.

I nodded and handed Elga the leash.

“Keep this till a month from now. However, if Elga-nim doesn’t obey me, I’ll increase the time limit by a day.”

“What!? How could you do that!?”

“Is there any problem? All you have to do is follow my instructions.”

Was she already thinking about breaking my orders? How devious. Of course, Elga also laid down her case.

“Where is the guarantee that you won’t give me unreasonable orders?”

‘That’s right.’

This issue also needed to be addressed.

We were essentially roleplaying. In a roleplay, it was necessary to clearly define the acceptable range.

“Don’t worry, I’m no devil. My orders won’t go beyond the level of Elga-nim’s bullying.”

“I-.”

I could see Elga’s eyes shake.

Perhaps, Elga was truly reflecting on what she had done to me.

I graciously added.

“But, if you really can’t stand it, you should decide on a keyword. If you say that, I will stop and make it as if it never happened.”

“Keyword?”

“We’re going to decide on a word to halt all activities.”

In other words, keyword = stop bullying.

Hmm… What kind of safety measure should be prepared for when Elga found it unbearable, stopping the roleplay altogether?

“Let’s have ‘meow meow’ as the keyword!”

“Ho, how can I say such a shameful thing? I’m not a kitten…!”

I imagined Elga meowing… Yeah, that was not going to happen unless something really happened.

“Think carefully. Now, if you are willing to accept this agreement, wear the leash around your neck.”

“…….”

“And for the next month, you have to keep wearing it except when taking a bath.”

“…….”

Elga didn’t say anything and just stared at the leash on my hand with her red swollen eyes.

Was it too much to rush Elga like this?

It wouldn’t hurt to give her some time to think.

“Then, I will leave it here on the desk. Think of it for today. Like what Elga-nim thinks of me and what will happen to us in the future. A lot will change depending on your choice….”

I then left the room after saying so, leaving only Elga who had calmed down a bit.

After all, I still had a lecture to attend this afternoon.
