After we Freya and I reached my bedroom, I sat down on a comfortable chair in front of a massive mirror that was stationed in the corner of my room. The seat of the chair was black, and it was made from a very comfortable leather so I had no problem waiting for Freya to come prepare of the of things that I ordered her to.
While I sat in wait for her, my mind wandered back to the time that I had said her name for the first time. It was complete by chance, right? Or was it possible that some part of Alicia told me her name?
The ladder would assume that in some sense that I wasn't truly controlling my body then. However, I wouldn't make much sense for Alicia to allow me to control her body and because of her vicious personality in the game, I found that situations being pretty unlikely.
That led me to one more possible reason. Maybe it was that I had inherited some of the key memories that Alicia had when I became her. This scenario was definitely the least frightening outside of it, being completely coincidental. In reality, I didn't think that it was possible to say a random name to someone, and it magically happens to be their name.
Especially if that person is from a completely different world than the one you used to live in. So, because of all of those aspects, brushing it off as a coincidence was pretty much off of the table.
"Young Lady, I brought the clothes and jewelry you asked for."
Interrupting me from my thoughts, Freya came back into the room with all the things that I had requested from her. She even returned with some hair products and makeup that I supposed she was going to apply for me. I didn't even have to ask her to do that, and she did it anyway.
It was nice having such a capable maid. This reminded me to make sure I took good care of her in the future.
"So, Young lady, what would you like me to start with?"
Instead of answering her with my words, I just pointed at the hair curler in her hands, which was a signal that I wanted her to do my hair first, and she responded to my gesture with a warm smile.
"Understood. I will begin now."
I continued to sit in the chair while Freya walked behind me and began heating the hair curler. In this world, they weren't powered by electricity like where I came from. Instead, they were powered by fire magic. Such was the case for most items such as itself. They were labeled as magic tools, and only the highest-ranking nobles could afford to purchase them.
Of course, for someone such as Alicia who pretty much could get her hands on whatever item she ever wanted, they didn't mean much. Alicia had countless magic tools lined up on the shelf in her closet. However, I wondered if I should even call it a closet because it was also bigger than my dorm room.
Suddenly, I felt a delicate tug on my hair, and the steam from the curler followed the tug. The process continued as she applied the curler to every corner of my long black hair.
Once she was done before I could even ask her, she started applying makeup to my face. It almost shocked me how fast she was with her process. It didn't take long before she finished applying my makeup and she stood me up very suddenly.
"Please raise your arms up, young miss."
I complied with her request and unzipped the white gown from the back and gently raised the clothes off of my body. Even though I shivered slightly from my bare body making contact with the air, it didn't last long. She quickly covered my body with the black and red evening dress and before I realized it, she took a step back and moved to the side, which revealed the mirror that she was blocking.
The girl that was reflected in the mirror stunned me. Her perfectly curled black hair and violet eyes glowed with a radical intensity. She was adorned with hundreds of jewels that were adorned with the sleeves of her dress and countless necklaces that hung around her neck.
The crowning piece was the diamond necklace with an amber gem that stood out among all the gems. The black and red dress that she wore gave off the aura of an unapproachable woman.
Yes, the woman that was reflected in the mirror was truly a Villainess and the smile that had began to curl the corner of my lips added to the intensity that was radiated off of the mirror.
I quickly rose from the chair and turned to Freya, who was observing me with a wide smile plastered on her face.
"Alright, let's go Freya."
Her response came with her usual bow, and she followed me out of the room as I headed for the stairs.

I didn't exactly know how far away Alicia lived from her parents, but I had a general idea that it wasn't nearby because Freya said she needed to prepare the carriage. I turned to meet Freya's eyes as we stepped outside of the massive mansion that I had been stuck in for the past couple of hours.
When I was able to observe it from the outside, it looked just as splendid from the outside. This massive house was definitely big enough to house hundreds. When looked over the structure from the outside, I also noticed some areas that I hadn't even when I had observed it from the inside.
"Young lady, let me help you up."
As Freya and I approached the steps of the carriage, she stood to the side and outstretched her slender hand to help me up the steps. I didn't really believe I needed it, but I guess it was natural for a maid to do these things, so I allowed her.
Freya latched onto my hand and helped me up the steps into the carriage. Upon arriving to the inside of the carriage, I was once again awed by the size of another of Alicia's possession. Going from a broke college student to the daughter of a Duke was just such a big jump in lifestyles.
The inside of the carriage was surrounded by white walls and a window that was being covered by a drape. The seats of the carriage also appeared to be white and were made of a very comfortable leather.
After a few moments, I heard a whip crack, and the carriage began moving. Freya, who was just watching over me from the seat across, smiled when I met her gaze and she broke the silence that had fallen within the carriage.
"Young lady, are you worried?"
Even though I hadn't realized it, I had been shivering within the carriage. I was unsure of how long I had been doing such a shameful act, but I quickly shook it off and met Freya's concerned gaze with a wide smile that was befitting of a villainess.
"You worry about me too much, Freya."
Her concerned gaze melted away into a cute smile that she beamed for the rest of the carriage ride. Which, the ride wasn't very comfortable at all. It, in fact, was very much unpleasant, but I put up with it and decided to deal with my aching butt later.
***
The carriage ride to the main house of the Stardust house didn't take very long, which pleased me much more than I realized at the moment, but when I was helped down the steps by Freya, a sense of relief enveloped me.
What I did know is I definitely wanted to learn to fly magic so I could avoid carriage rides as much as possible. As we walked up a gigantic staircase that led to the entrance of the main house, I was greeted by a man and a woman who I had only seen flashes of in the game.
A man with short black hair and glowing violet eyes such as myself was the first to greet me as I reached the entrance, and the woman beside him took the initiative to be the second. The woman had almost the same face as me, and her eyes and hair once again resembled Alicia's almost perfectly. It quickly became very much obvious that these two people were my… parents.
"Welcome home."
"Alicia."
