7th Time Loop: The Villainess Enjoys a Carefree Life Married to Her Worst Enemy (2024) s01e02 Episode Script

1
Let me apologize
for the sudden disrespect towards you.
And I hereby ask you…
Please…
Please be my wife.
-What? Your wife?
-Yes.
Me? Become your wife?
That's right.
I refuse.
Why?
Why is he laughing
so pleasantly like that?
The Crown Prince of Galkhein
is courting Rishe?
The man who killed me is proposing to me?
I don't know what he wants
or his intentions.
-The King is here!
-Why?
Your Majesty!
Father!
Why should you come to a place like this--
It hurts!
Your Majesty?
Forgive the rudeness of this stupid
son of mine, Your Highness Arnold!
Miss Rishe, I'm really sorry
about your broken engagement!
I deeply apologize.
I know you have heard
of His Highness Arnold's wishes,
but please hear my request too!
Nothing like this will cause friction in
the friendship between our two countries.
What…
However, if it is possible,
I would like you to arrange
a time for me to talk with her.
I beg of you, Miss Rishe!
If you refuse me once again,
I just need to use other means.
What on earth are you plotting?
Nothing.
I'm in love with you, that's it.
In love?
Your engagement broke off,
and you don't have any support, right?
That's true.
If it were me from my first life,
I would have jumped at it.
But, as I am now,
I already know there are
infinite possibilities in life.
But… He's the treacherous emperor.
The aggressor.
In all the lives I've lived,
he always started wars.
Why would he do this?
Would I know if I'm around him?
You said you are in love with me, right?
That's why I'm courting you.
Then, can I ask a few selfish requests?
As long as I can grant it,
I swear that I will
make everything happen.
First, I would like you
to purchase the necessary items
for the marriage ceremony
from the company I specify.
You can do as you wish.
After the marriage, please provide a place
to meet guests from various countries.
In fact, you'd be expected to do so
as Crown Princess.
I, myself, prefer to live separately
from the Emperor.
If it's for you, I will do whatever it is.
And one last important thing.
I will definitely be messing around
in the castle!
I'll be lazy, slack and unwilling to work!
Oh, in addition,
please don't lay a finger on me!
What's the meaning of that hand?
You already promised me
that you will not lay a finger on me.
Don't despise it like that.
I was just trying to get back
what you took from me.
Please forgive my rudeness!
How can you sleep so well
just curling up with a sword for support?
To think I used a sword
that pierced my heart as a pillow.
I had no idea you could sense me
when I didn't even touch you.
It must have taken a lot of training
to reach that level.
You are right.
I have told the company you specified
to come and discuss the business.
Thank you so much.
Aria Trading Company.
It's a company
that I've heard a lot about recently.
-Were you originally a patron of theirs?
-No.
However, I heard that they
stock very good products.
I'd like to make a connection with them
early in this life as well.
Such destructiveness
from that stunningly beautiful face.
What?
No, nothing at all…
Stop the carriage!
Ambush!
Wait…
Just sit tight and wait here.
He's got the Knights,
so why is he fighting?
He wants me to sit tight
and wait here, but…
It's over, huh?
I've gone to great lengths
to play with you by myself,
and you're not even entertaining me.
Capture these bandits.
Whoever's available
will treat the wounded.
Sir!
He's not killing them.
Not a single one.
Hey, what's up, Kamil?
Hurry up!
Are you okay? Hey!
What's happened?
My body feels numb…
Poison, huh?
Immediately bind the wound
near the heart and suck out the poison.
Sir!
A sweet aroma like an overripe apple.
It's a numbing potion mixed with
shea grass and blue stone mushrooms.
It is probably used
by hunters in this area.
Although not fatal,
the symptoms would last for several days.
It's still two days
until we reach Galkhein.
When it comes to taking care of him…
Along the way,
there was a hunter's village.
-We'll go back there and get the antido--
-Excuse me.
I can make the antidote.
What?
I am glad I could make it with
the medicinal herbs I had on hand.
It would be more effective
if it were boiled down,
but let's use this one for the time being.
Are they suspicious of me?
Hey!
What are you doing?
It's okay, you don't have to worry.
This is the licorice herb
and lucua flower.
Plus, it's an antidote
made from carylier berries.
Kindly make your choice.
Would you like to use this medicine now?
Or you can bear the numbness
for a few days,
right, Your Highness?
I'm glad it wasn't too serious.
Aside from that, what do you think
the guard knights are for?
Rather than having the knights fight
and suffer outside the battlefield,
me fighting alone would protect
our national interests better.
In fact, some people have been injured.
That's just the result.
Moreover, you even dragged
Lady Rishe along.
I didn't do that.
The flowers were not ornamental,
but were practical, huh?
How did you get out of the carriage?
It's a secret.
In my life as a servant,
milady would often
lock herself in her room,
so I would open it every time.
He's like a child watching a line of ants.
Is something bothering you?
Nothing much.
I just think you're very unfathomable,
that's all.
What means will you use next
to entertain me?
I'm really looking forward to it.
As if I were a rare creature or something.
I did not do this
for Your Highness' amusement.
I know.
One of the knights
you have threatened to choose
is originally from the slums.
Galkhein claims to be a meritocracy,
but it often fails to give credit
where it is due.
Still, that guy didn't give in
to external pressure.
He worked hard and became a knight.
The knight with the most severe paralysis
had only been assigned for a short time.
The older knight who had been
training day and night for this mission
was wounded with the newcomer
while trying to protect him.
He's a caring man.
You know a lot about knights, don't you?
They're the vassals I chose.
I thank you for saving him.
I don't know what's going on anymore.
Is this his fake persona?
Or perhaps…
I just happened to use
the knowledge I had.
I doubt there's any duke's daughter
that happens to know about medicine.
That reminds me,
why were all the knights so wary of me?
Hearing that you're the duke's daughter
who had a broken engagement,
they must be wondering what kind
of evil woman would be married to me.
I see.
Then, how did you inform His Majesty
about me?
"She's a duke's daughter
related to the royal family
and engaged to the crown prince.
I liked her so much I stole her."
Stole?
It is decided that the queen
must be royalty from another country.
You mean I'm a hostage?
There may be people in Galkhein
who will be disrespectful to you.
If anything should happen to you, I will--
That's wonderful!
What?
If I were treated as a hostage,
I wouldn't have to be sent
on official business!
Well, you're not wrong.
All right! Now I can really slack off!
Thank you so much, Your Highness!
Well…
Speaking of,
you tried to grab my hand earlier,
didn't you?
That would be force majeure.
You need to keep your promise!
The Galkhein country,
with its land and plentiful resources,
influences countries all over the world.
It is the only country I have not visited
in any of my past lives.
This is the Imperial Capital!
Is there a problem?
It seems the preparation of the villa
has been delayed.
I'm sorry, but you'll have to stay
in the guest room today.
You don't have to worry about it.
I'll be fine at the villa.
It's been a long time since it's been used
and it's in bad shape.
It doesn't matter.
Besides, I am a hostage!
Why are you so proud of it?
Indeed,
it has not been used for many years,
so it's very dusty.
Well, then…
Let's start!
My blood is pumping
from my days as a servant!
Lady Rishe…
Is there anything we can help with?
I can't ask you guards to clean up.
Well, then, at least
let us carry the furniture.
I would appreciate it very much.
A few years later, Arnold Hein
killed his father, the current emperor,
and then started the war.
It might not mean much,
but I'd like to keep him
away from his father.
Why did he wage war on the world?
The reason I lost my life
in every life I've lived
has everything to do
with the war that Arnold Hein started.
I firmly oppose the war!
As long as there's no war,
I can live forever and leisurely!
I can slack off all the time!
Hey, look.
The amateur did her best!
It's no use trying so hard!
Because we are the ones who will be chosen
as the Crown Princess's servants.
-Are you okay?
-Yes.
-I've never seen you before.
-She must be new here.
Her hands look so clean.
Unfortunately, the only people
who can serve the Crown Princess
are those of us who have worked
in this castle for three years.
Can you get up?
Hey! We're talking to you!
If you want to be a servant,
you'd better respect your seniors.
You better not wash those curtains now.
What?
The days are long in spring,
so they'll be dry enough.
A brief rain will fall later on.
What makes you so sure?
These clouds are like that,
and the birds are flying low.
It'd take more time and effort
if you wash the big ones.
There is no way a newcomer like you
can be right!
Whatever, let's go.
Surely the weather
is going to be much nicer today.
Does it hurt anywhere?
No. Thank you very much.
My name is Elsie.
Thanks for saving me.
You got a little dirty, huh?
I've just been given these clothes.
Just wash it right away
and you'll be fine.
Even though it will be raining,
that cloth is easy to dry,
and mud stains can get
deep into the threads,
so try to wash it as if
you were beating it with a brush!
You are…
Come on, we have to hurry before it rains.
To visit every country in the world.
That's what I dreamed of
when I was a merchant.
Though I have tried to fulfill that dream
over the course of my life,
it never came true.
But I finally made it to the only country
I have not been able to visit!
Is it okay to leave
in the middle of an official matter?
You really never cease to amaze me.
I thought I'd erased my presence,
but I had no idea you could notice me
at such a distance.
You are just too much. You adjusted
the intensity of your presence,
and tried to gauge when I'd get the hint.
What were you looking at?
The city.
What is that large building over there?
It's the library.
The books collected
from various countries are kept there.
Wow, from various countries?
And that beautiful
little tower over there?
It's the church.
It also serves as a clock tower,
ringing a bell
to announce the appointed time.
Wow, so wonderful!
Seems like there is a big market
in that area.
It is the largest shopping street
in the imperial capital.
The food stalls also carry items
freshly stocked that day.
That's amazing!
Then, Your Highness,
what is that beautiful…
Is something wrong?
I just wondered what was so fun about it.
Is it possible to be
so interested in a country
that you were unwillingly married into?
I had always admired it.
Admired?
I have wanted to come to this country
for a long time.
The final push that made me decide
to get married to you
was my admiration for this country.
There is nothing in this country
that you would admire.
That's not true.
There are many fascinating places,
even if you only
told me about them earlier.
The faces of the people in the city
were beaming.
Besides…
Am I saying something weird?
I have never seen someone like you.
The remarks of your statements,
your knowledge and your physical ability,
it would not be necessary
for a mere duke's daughter.
You do not need to have your own feelings
when you are born into a ducal family!
But, Mother--
Your happiness is to marry into
the royal family and produce an heir.
I have something I want to learn--
Knowledge of how to socialize
is all that you need.
Bridal training is more important
than studying.
Even if others don't see it as necessary,
it's all my treasure.
It is an asset that will never be lost
and is an important part of my life.
It's up to me to decide
what is valuable in my life.
I know.
You are free to do whatever you want.
I swear I will continue to support
and be a part of your wish.
Why?
Like I said, I fell in love with you.
The same old lies.
Besides,
I find your unfathomable ability
is far from meaningless
but sincerely desirable.
I hoped at least that much
was clear to you.
Just think about what you want.
I've just broken my agreement
not to lay a single finger on you.
I completely can't fathom you,
Arnold Hein!
What on earth are you plotting?
