The Villainess Does It With Class

Chapter 80 - An Invitation To The Capital

"Brother-- Oh, he's busy..."

He was in the backyard with Uno and Kai, obviously practicing. Kai is already 14, and he had grown quite tall. Both of us almost have the same height now, and I don't know what to feel about that.

For your information, Nadia is a long-legged woman. Taller than any of the other noble ladies out there, that is. She's maybe around 170 centimeters...

That's considered tall because the average height of the other women is around 160-ish.. So yeah, I am tall!

Kai has also been diligently practicing to be a knight, and he's taking lessons directly from Nathan too. I had thought that he would change his mind after a few years, but nope. He is serious, he said.

"I promised to protect you," was his answer to my imploring questions.

'Well, I can't stop him anyway. He can do what he wants.'

And Lost, gosh. You know what happened to Lost?! Lost became a man!

I don't understand it either! Just one day, I started noticing that she-- I mean he, is looking more masculine every day. It's weird! I interrogated the maids that have been taking care of Lost before, asking them what the hell was happening! I got scared that Lost got replaced by some doppelganger!

How come he became a guy?! Like what the hell?! What is with him?

One of them told me that whenever it's time to bathe, Lost would volunteer to do it alone. They don't want to scare the child so they agreed and just waited for her-- err him, and they all remained alert if something would happen. So technically, nobody confirmed Lost's gender.

'So my first impression of him being a boy is true. But why did he look so cute like a little girl?!'

I'm not even the only one who is surprised, the whole mansion was shocked! Plus the fact that we had been dressing him up as a girl...

My eyes narrowed at Lost who was patiently standing at the side. He was wearing a plain white polo and black slacks, looking neat and proper. His dark brown hair got longer, which reached the middle of his back and was tied into a low ponytail. Beside his feet was Kuro, my adorable fox.

Kuro had grown three new sets of tails too, so now he got five. I just don't understand anything anymore... The day I found out that he's growing more tails, it made me think that Kuro might be hypothetically a nine-tailed fox. Which is a product of a legend, by the way.

'No way I'm that lucky...'

Lost must have felt my scrutiny on him, thus his liquid amber eyes went to me. It is really amazing how he had grown to such a fine young man as well.

'But what is he?!'

"Good Afternoon Miss Nadia," he greeted politely. Kuro perked up as soon as it saw me and started bolting in my direction. All of his five tails were wagging and you could definitely hear the air being hit. Lost and Kai isn't the only one who got big either.

If you do not know what it looks like, imagine a gigantic dog, probably a St. Bernard, came barreling to you. It is a product of pure horror. I'm still not used to seeing how massive this fox is and had sometimes feared for my life.

One of the good things that came with it is that I could ride him like a horse now. Yeah, just like a mount. Kuro is now my own personal mount.

"Awww, aren't you a cute fox?" I cooed when it dropped down to the ground to let me pet it.

And another good thing is, he became so fluffy that I could literally make him my bed. It's my ultimate dream you know!

*Klang!* the sound of sword hitting sword echoed around the place before it landed on the ground nearby Kai and Nathan. It caught our attention for sure.
