20 years had passed when I woke up! ~ The villain's daughter’s thereafter and after that ~ - Chapter 24

“It’s all over, sister,” Tiara whispered.
Annerose was burned away without leaving any dust behind, and the Duke of Sylberia died under the rubbles.
All the karmas were resolved….
“No, not yet.”
Fioria denied it.
“20 years ago, the Regalia Empire was behind Annerose. They are going to have to pay for it.”
Her words silenced the people around her again.
Fioria’s astonishing power had been demonstrated exclusively in the previous battle.
If the << Wand of Divine Punishment >> struck them…
Imagining that terrified and made them quiver.
Their faces displayed intense horror and despair.
“Don’t worry. I won’t harm you. …..Killing without pain is kind of a mercy. It won’t be harmful, right?”
Fioria was just joking, but no one laughed.
………….. At this point, a piece of news came in, which couldn’t be a joke.
Uprising of the neighboring countries.
Despite the military presence, the Regalian Imperial Army had not yet recovered from the chaos of the coup.
The allied neighboring countries launched a string of surprise raids and defeated the Regalian troops.
Rout after rout….
Regalia Expirer lost in the blink of an eye — it was all the land they got from their military expedition over the last 10 years.
The situation would get worse.
Assisted by somebody, most of the aristocrats on the coup side escaped.
They returned to their territories, formed a coalition, and rose against the Regalia Empire.
“20 years ago, who supported the kingdom of Isolute most? it was the Regalia Empire.”
“………..”
As all the pieces were put together…….
Fioria abruptly gave Drake Bell Regalia, the Emperor of the Regalia Empire, a choice.
“But I’m a kind person, I will give you a safety tether. Form an alliance with the Kingdom of Tristan. Otherwise……”
Fioria raised an apple.
“You know what will happen? The Kingdom of Tristan will join this uprise. It’ll erase the Regalia Empire forever from the map.”
“….. But you don’t call this an alliance!”
Drake yelled.
His temples shuddered rapidly. Some streaks of sweat dribbled on his darkish bald head.
It was understandable.
The terms of the alliance with the Tristan Kingdom were humiliating for the Regalian monarch, not to mention the Regalia Empire.
“Why must I hand over the rights of the Emperor’s appointment to the Tristan Kingdom! On top of that, pay tribute every year? Don’t fool around with me! You are treating us subjects of the state!”
“You can protect your country by just giving up your pride. It’s a cheap buy, right?… By the way, I have such a piece of paper.”
Fioria took out the contract.
When she received news of the coup d’état on the sea, she asked Prince Darc to sign it.
It said, “The Regalian Imperial Family recognizes the Duke of Florence as an equal partner, and delegates Fioría de Florence to suppress the coup.”
“Your son has already thrown away his pride as a member of the imperial family… Maybe he didn’t read the contract, but that itself was a shame because he was too careless as the prince of a country.”
“What kind of grudge do you have against my country…!”
“You owe me for the thing that happened 20 years ago. You were the mastermind who controlled Annerose behind at the time…… You were seduced by her sex appeal and let her do whatever she wanted. That was stupid.”
“…You don’t understand me.”
Drake was defiant and spat his word.
“My mistress played around with many aristocrats. It was fun to see.”
“You have such a twisted sense.”
“My son Darc takes my lover as his wife without knowing it, and he raises my child… It’ll be very amusing.”
“You are rotten at the bottom of your heart. You can’t live long.”
Shortly after, the Kingdom of Tristan and the Regalia Empire signed an alliance.
Immediately after the treaty, the 87th Emperor Drake died mysteriously…………No, he suddenly died of his illness, and Darc succeeded the 88th Emperor.
However, Darc was a mere figurehead emperor.
Whatever he did, he had to consult King Vincent of Tristan. He was abominated not only by the aristocrats but also by the public. He made his name in history as a worthless emperor who ended the Regalia Empire.
Tiara, the president of Franz Bank and his ex-fiancée were completely indebted to him. When he asked her for a loan for the national treasury, he apparently clung to her like a dog and even licked her shoe.

And one day, half a year after the conclusion of the Tristan-Regalia Alliance.
“Hehehehe…..!”
A town in the Duke of Florence’s domain.
A baby was smiling in a local officer’s house.
“Good girl, Annaria.”
“Eheheheheh……!”
The baby was very cute.
Although she was a beautiful baby, she mirrored the expressions that the grownups around her wanted.
She had already captivated, not only her parents but also the neighboring people.
(Hahaha..… A piece of cake. They are all morons. Men and women both.)
Baby Annaria already understood words.
Furthermore, she had the ability to think like an adult.
She was a reincarnated person.
That was her third life.
In her first life, she was born in a world without magic.
She was raised in a less affluent family in Japan.
She had never seen her father.
Her mother slept with a different man every night, and she level-headedly observed it.
As she entered high school, she entered maiden games, longing for true romance.
Once she was a grownup, she enjoyed her luxurious life while taking advantage of many men. One day, however, a group of outraged men raped and lynched her.
She was stabbed on her right flank and died of bleeding.
Her second life was in a magical world.
She was named Annerose.
She regretted her past life and tried to lead a decent life.
Yet, it turned out that she was the daughter of the fallen Baron of Isolute. Spontaneously, she noticed that this was the world of the maiden game, “Deep Sleep Amnesia”.
When she entered the aristocratic school, she discovered that Fioria de Florence, whom she hated most, had left more heroic stories than the original character did.
Fioria knocked some wicked aristocrats down to the ground and eradicated the drug syndicate.
Because of that, everyone likes Fioria…… Ah, it infuriates me. I dislike her.
I am the heroine of this world. Why is Fioria standing out more than me?
Hold on, if it’s the game, she should be at school, right? Where has she gone?
Reforming the territory of Florence? Does she care about me? Am I out of her concern?
Her intense jealousy consumed Annerose. Her hatred only grew.
“If so, I’ll throw her into a big mess. All of her. Utterly and exclusively.”
Shortly after, she met a spy from the Regalia Empire.
Backed by their support, Annerose went on making boys of the aristocratic families her puppets.
She looked down on the men she deceived.
She looked down on the women who disliked her.
She smiled with her sense of supremacy…..
And on the day Fioria returned to the school, Annerose poisoned and tried to kill her.
…………However, it ended up as an attempted murder, and 20 years later, she got paid for exactly what she did.
“I’ll send you to heaven without leaving any dust. I really hope you will be reborn again.”
<< Wand of Divine Punishment >>.
The golden destructive light terminated Annerose’s life, but………….
Her third life had arrived.
That was now.
She received her life as Annaria, the daughter of a commoner.
She wasn’t sure if the world was of “Deep Sleep Amnesia” or something else.
In any case, she was very clear about what she wanted.
I want to be loved, I want to be loved, I want to be loved.
I am hungry. I am thirsty.
Not enough, not enough, not enough.
Look at me more. Compliment me more.
Your existence has no meaning like pieces of rubbish, so do your duty properly.
Annaria was looking down on everyone and spent her days as a baby.
“Anna, let’s go out for a moment today.”
Held in her mother’s arms, she left home.
The lord’s daughter was apparently inspecting the city. If she stroked her head, babies would grow up healthily.
That’s nonsense. What kind of superstition is that? It’s impossible for a lord’s daughter to possess such magical power.
Well, okay then, I’ll fascinate that woman with my sweet smile. I don’t mind if I’m adopted into their family.
Annaria selfishly and cockily enjoyed her thoughts.
But…
“…… Finally, I found you.”
Annaria’s face froze as soon as she met the lord’s daughter.
“You were in such a place, Annerose.”
The Lord’s daughter… Fioria calmly smiled.
Fioria stroked Annerose’s, no, Annaria’s head as if she was grabbing it.
“Uh…………”
Annaria was terrified.
If Fioria put a little force into it, her head would explode.
“I wish you will grow up into a decent lady.
…………I will always be watching over you, so don’t forget it.”
