1. CHAPTER 5
2. Days as a Maid
4. I'm in love with...
Memuatkan…Memuatkan…
1. "......"
2. "Ugh..."
Memuatkan…Memuatkan…
1. "Leee-neee!!!"
2. "~~~~~~!! I can't bear this any longer!"
3. "Forgive me, miss claire."
4. "Don't you think your gaze is fixed on a wicked place?!"
5. "You!"
6. It's been a few days since I became miss claire's maid.
7. "Allow me to gaze upon you for just a few more moments."
8. "Like I said, stop staring at me like that!"
9. My mornings begin in the best way possible.
1. "Rae, what are we going to do with you?"
2. "Goodness..."
3. "Eh heh heh!"
4. "Sorry about that."
5. "You can't keep teasing miss claire like this!"
6. "Having this commoner serve me will only make the situation worse!"
7. "For crying out loud!"
8. "Miss claire is just such a stunning beauty."
9. "I've had it with your incessant compliments!"
1. "Nothing is going to improve if rae doesn't get used to doing her job."
2. "Now, now, miss claire."
3. "I think it's best if I have lene change my clothes."
4. "There may be times when I'm unable to take care of you."
5. "Well..."
6. "That may be, but..."
7. She's been taking care of miss claire since forever.
8. This is lene aurousseau.
1. Lene is the oldest daughter of the aurousseaus, a family of wealthy merchants.
2. Lene works as a maid at the behest of her family.
3. She was sent to work for miss claire's father...
4. In order to curry favor with him.
5. She was born a commoner, just like me, but her family lives without need.
6. However...
7. "Oh!"
8. "Miss claire, you mustn't be such a picky eater."
9. "Green peppers were never meant to be eaten by people!"
10. "There are so many other vegetables I could consume."
11. "Urk..."
1. "It's a noble's duty to consume it all."
2. "Miss claire..."
3. "The food before you was paid for by the people's taxes."
4. "Uugh..."
5. "B-but...!"
6. "May I eat them?"
7. "Yay! It's time for my very first indirect ki--"
8. "!!"
1. "That meal was quite delicious!"
2. "Way to go, rae!"
3. "That's nothing. I'm capable of so much more!"
4. "And once we've determined that..."
5. If I had to give her a label, I'd say lene feels like an older sister.
6. "I know you only did that because it's your instinct!!"
1. "Next..."
2. "I would like miss claire to explain to everyone..."
3. "King cooley iii's policies."
4. "Yes, sir."
5. "One, two, three!"
6. "His agricultural policy..."
7. "Swiftly resolved the famine affecting the alpecian region."
8. Lene works as a maid, so she doesn't have to attend lectures.
9. "Next, he set about developing the grain-producing region to the west."
10. After our meals are done, it's time for lectures.
1. Since I'm a student here, I must accompany miss claire.
2. "Our kingdom was able to improve our self-sufficiency so that we wouldn't need to rely on imported food."
3. "Rae!"
4. "As expected from miss claire! What an excellent answer!"
1. "They went off without a hitch!"
2. "How were the lectures?"
3. "Great job today."
4. "Well, miss claire does have outstanding grades."
5. "I was hired as both her maid and her personal tutor."
6. "Still, I wish that she would have asked me to handle something for her."
7. "Now then! We're going to be quite busy this afternoon as waitresses!"
8. "Let's work our hardest for miss claire today!"
9. "Yay!"
1. "Miss claire..."
2. "Have you heard the rumors about the new dessert at broumet?"
3. "Of course I have!"
4. "The new creation is..."
5. "Chocolate!"
6. "Goodness! You've tried it already?!"
7. "Such a mysteriously bewitching confection."
8. "It's both sweet and bitter..."
1. "It's not fair for you only to shower loretta with gifts!"
2. "I'd love to try some myself!"
3. "If you're interested, I'll have some delivered to your rooms later."
4. "I happen to have brought a few into the academy with me."
5. "Miss claire!"
6. "Always aware of what's popular."
7. "Right away, miss claire."
8. "Commoner! Prepare chocolates for pepi and loretta."
9. "But are you all right having that commoner attend to you?"
10. "Oh... Miss claire..."
11. "I know we're only mentioning this now..."
1. But he commanded me to rein her in.
2. "I told my father that it simply would not do..."
3. "I must accept this reality."
4. "You have our dearest and deepest sympathies!"
5. "Thanks to that, I no longer have a moment to spare for myself."
6. "You're now able to accompany miss claire. Perhaps she even gives you sweets as an act of charity?"
7. "Heh! Aren't you the fortunate one?"
8. "Wait! Why are you saying that to me?!"
1. "What?!"
2. "Have we finally reached your affectionate phase?!"
3. "Are you love-struck?!"
4. "Oh ho ho!"
5. "L-love-struck...?"
6. "Miss claire?"
7. "N-nothing of the sort has happened!!"
8. "Do you realize you made a sad expression just now?"
9. "What do you think you're doing by chasing after miss claire?!"
10. "Like I stated before..."
1. "I don't like miss claire. I love her!"
2. "I think we fully understand what's going on now, right?"
3. "E-enough. This is exhausting."
4. "Oh my!"
5. "I should say... I'm deeply in love with her!"
6. "That's right..."
7. "Ahhh..."
1. "With great pleasure!!!"
2. "Can you wash her hair for her, Rae?"
3. "It's time for us to help you wash your body, Miss Claire."
4. "Miss Claire! Rae!"
5. "You're both going to catch a cold!"
6. "What extravagance!"
7. "Praise be to the volcanic belt."
8. "If you do anything uncouth, I'll slap you where you stand!"
9. "What are you muttering to yourself about?"
1. "Oh...?"
2. "Your hair is simply gorgeous, miss claire. And so easy to wash."
3. "How are you so good at this?"
4. "The truth is, she actually has very silky, straight hair."
5. "I do her hair every single day!"
6. "Thank you very much."
1. "Whew..."
2. "I'm going to rinse your hair now."
3. "!"
4. "I'm certain you're imagining things."
5. "Huh?"
6. "Excuse me... But could you lose the lewd gaze you're fixing me with?"
1. "Yet she seems to know everything there is to know about you."
2. "She's a mysterious girl."
3. "I mean, you've only just met her, yes?"
4. "That's correct!"
5. "It's because I love miss claire!"
6. "......"
7. "Really? There you go again..."
1. "Miss claire...?"
2. "I'm heading off to the servant's quarters."
3. "Okay, rae..."
4. "All right. Have a good night."
5. "You were completely zoned out while you sat in the bath."
6. "Are you a bit dizzy?"
7. "A little..."
8. "Be quiet!"
9. "Did it feel that good while I was washing your hair?!"
1. "Do you need a goodnight kiss?"
2. "Do you really believe I'd allow a maid to do that to me?!"
3. "Wait, why haven't you returned to your quarters yet...?"
4. "Well..."
5. "I will once you've fallen asleep, miss claire."
6. "Yes, ma'am. Sweet dreams."
7. "Just hurry up and go to bed!"
8. "Bloody commoners..."
1. "Are you still here?"
2. "......"
3. "Why..."
4. "I see..."
5. "Yes, ma'am."
6. "Why do you keep saying that you love me?"
1. "I also love your personality."
2. "Does that mean you fancy my physical appearance?"
3. "Because you're adorable."
4. "Well..."
5. "I'm well aware of what sort of person I am."
6. "I don't have the kind of personality that makes me likeable among my peers."
1. "I don't need your hollow flattery."
2. "But that's not--"
3. "Answer me."
4. "What is it you're truly after?"
1. "There's no other reason."
2. "Miss claire. I love you. That's why I want to be by your side."
3. "I see..."
4. "Correct."
5. "Do you not believe me?"
6. "So...you plan to play the fool to the very end?"
1. "Then..."
2. "I will do my very best to make you believe me."
1. "J- just go to bed already!"
1. "...... Good-night, miss claire."
2. "Do whatever you want..."
3. To be continued...
1. Is this really going to be okay?
2. "I'll use you as my practice model, misha!"
3. "You can't do it yet, rae."
4. "I want to do miss claire's hair!"
5. "Where do you think you're pullin--"
6. Wait, what?
7. Hmm?
8. "Don't worry! I'm doing a fantastic job!"
9. "Something about this makes me want to...!"
10. "Uhhh..."
11. "......"
12. "All I want to do is flatter her!"
13. "It makes me want to obsessively fawn over her!"
1. The Secret Story of the Birth of Chocolate
2. Written by Inori.
3. It happened on a weekend right after I’d started working as a maid for Miss Claire. As I was cleaning a hallway, I spotted a bouncing pair of golden curls.
4. I decided this was the perfect opportunity to mess with Miss Claire... At least, that’s what I was planning on doing, but something about her was off. She was constantly glancing around and trying to make herself inconspicuous.
5. In short, she was acting suspicious.
6. Hrmm. I think it’s pretty much mandatory that I follow her now.
7. The François manor was massive. So massive that it didn’t matter how much attention Miss Claire drew to herself. Besides, she was a powerful magic user, so there was no issue with her leaving the grounds without a guard.
8. She snuck out successfully, apparently heading for the market.
She'd done this before.
In fact, it was clear she'd done this countless times.
She continued to check her surroundings as she purchased a crepe from a food stall. As the daughter of the famous François family, she probably never got to snack between meals.
Just as she was about to sink her teeth into this sweet treat, I made my move.
"That sure looks delicious, Miss Claire."
"Mnglth?! C-commoner...?! What are you doing here?"
"Huh? You want me to have a bite, too? Aww, thank you! Ahhh!"
"I said nothing of the sort!"
I thought this might finally be the moment where I received an indirect kiss from Miss Claire, but alas, she rejected me with all of her might.
"Where are you headed after this, Miss Claire?"
"That has nothing to do with you."
"Oh, but it does! I'm a captive of your love, Miss Claire."
"You're my maid! Do you hear me?! You're nothing more than a maid!!" Miss Claire was lightning-quick to correct me, while also checking to make sure those around us didn't misunderstand anything.
"Well, in that case, please take me with you! Surely it must be inconvenient to do everything all by yourself?"
"What is that supposed to mean...? Hmph! Do as you"
1. "prepared with more sugar, but that’s so expensive...”"
2. Cacao! I’ve just stumbled on a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity!
3. "“Miss Claire, Miss Amena, please give me one week.”"
4. "“What are you planning to do?”"
5. "“Just wait and see.”"
6. One week later, Miss Claire and I returned to check on Miss Amena’s stall. When we arrived, however, she was no longer there.
7. "“Wh-what?! What has happened here?”"
8. "“Please calm down, Miss Claire. Let’s ask around and see if someone knows something.”"
9. I went over to the fruit stall next door and purchased a package of strawberries from an old woman. I inquired after Amena.
10. "“I heard she’s become the purveyor of cacao for Broumet! She thought up some new recipe.”"
11. As soon as Miss Claire heard this, she sighed with relief. Broumet was a restaurant renowned for its sweets. Indeed, it was one of the few restaurants in the Bauer Kingdom.
12. "“Did you do something, commoner?”"
13. "“All I did was offer a bit of help. The rest was up to Miss Amena’s efforts.”"
1. Miss Claire eyed me suspiciously, but she didn't launch into her usual interrogation.
2. "“Well then, that’s good to hear. That means that, once again, my judgment was right on the mark. Amena had real talent, after all! Oh ho ho ho!”"
3. "“Does that mean you possess foresight, or merely an unrefined palate...?”"
4. "“Did you say something?”"
5. "“I only said that I love you, Miss Claire.”"
6. "“Enough already. We’re leaving.”"
7. The newly created sweet in Broumet was chocolate. It was an instant hit. In fact, a rumor was already making the rounds that its name came from a certain merchant...
2. Hello, I'm the author of this series, Inori. Did you enjoy this first volume of I'm in Love with the Villainess? Aonoshimo-sensei is a wonderful manga artist who created what I believe to be a fantastic first volume. I think every character is adorable, from Rae and Claire to Misha and Lene, and even the groupies, Pepi and Loretta! I truly believe that there couldn't have been a better artist on the planet to draw this series, so thank you very much, Aonoshimo-sensei! I humbly hope that you, the readers, have enjoyed this manga from start to finish, cover to cover. I also hope that if you enjoyed this manga, you will consider buying the light novel that serves as its basis. (Gotta plug my merch at the very end!)

6. The main character of this story. Born a commoner, Rae was admitted to the Royal Academy through their scholarship program. She’s now the top-scoring new student. Rae is a dual-caster, able to command both earth and water magic, and possesses an ultra-high affinity for both! She doesn’t fear engaging with the members of the royal family who attend the academy alongside her, and all the princes respect her.
4. "“A commoner is going to sit next to me?! You should know your place!”"
5. Claire is the eldest daughter of Dole François, the Minister of Finance for the Bauer Kingdom. She’s an arrogant noble who deeply resents the fact that our main character will be attending classes alongside her. Claire possesses an ultra-high affinity for fire magic. Although she’s trying to win over the second prince, Thane Bauer, she can’t ever seem to close the distance between them.
2. When corporate worker Rei Ohashi finds herself reborn as the protagonist of her favorite dating sim, it's the perfect opportunity to do what she's always wanted—seduce the villainess! In her previous life, Rei had no interest in the princes the game had to offer. She only had eyes for Claire François, her nemesis. Now, armed with her extensive knowledge of the game, and her undying love for Claire, will Rei finally be able to win over the woman of her dreams?
