Why Did I Become the Villainess?

 Csille sigh and look at the match in front of her. One of the subcategories in the Intellect already started, and Leander is the first one competing now. Csille doesn't have competition for today. So, all she needs to do is to watch the competition of her teammates.

 "Their questions are boring. How can they not answer that?" She grumbles.

 Rufus laughs. "Can't you see the other representatives are finding it difficult to answer that question? Not everyone thinks like you purplany."

 Csille is about to refute, but Prince Fraser, who is sitting beside her, suddenly speaks. "If you don't want other people to hate us. Please stop mocking other representatives."

 Csille pouts like a child reprimanded by her parents. If I am not in her body, I would probably grimace at her. Although Csille's aesthetic is incomparable but I'm not used see her acting coquettishly. That's not so her personality. 

 She really becomes a different person in front of Prince Fraser. Sometimes it's a good person, but most of the time, it's her bad side.

 The host rings the bell. It is a sign that the first round is already finished. The first round is testing the intellect of the representatives. But the host still needs to announce the rankings. In each match, each Kingdom has only one representative. The category for this match is medicine, and Leander is the one competing for the Vrawyth Kingdom. He is the only one who can compete in the medical category. All of us can't even name ten herbs. So, we all leave the medicine to Leander.

 "For the first round, the first place is the Aeslaerean Kingdom scoring perfect ten. Followed by the Ouqeaseon Kingdom, who scored nine point five. The Wrezatia Kingdom scored nine points. The Saiven Kingdom scored eight point nine. The Stozeterra Kingdom scored eight point five. The Yesian Kingdom scored seven and..." the host paused and stared at Leander, who looks like he is already bored. "last but not the least, the Vrawyth Kingdom. Scoring five."

 Everyone got silent becomes of the scores. The Vrawyth Kingdom, which they all expect to ace the first round, falls on the bottom. Not to think that the one competing is Leander, the student known to be the 'future Godly Doctor.' 

 Csille smirk and look at the faces of the representatives competing against Leander. 

 These fools. Did they really think they could win against the Vrawyth Kingdom? Dream on. Only us has the right to be the Gold Grand Exemplar. 

 After a few minutes of silence, the host cleared his throat. "Everyone knows that there is no elimination in the first round, but I hope the result will motivate you to do your best for this competition. The second round will now start. For this round, we will only give you five questions, and whoever answers it will be given two points for each question that they answer right. All of you must know that two people will be eliminated in this round."

 The host paused and stared at each representative. "For the first question. Why is urinary urobilinogen increased in haemolytic jaundice? If the bilirubin in this condition is unconjugated, how does it reach the terminal ileum to be converted into urobilinogen?"

 All the representatives pause for a minute before they write their answers on the paper that was given to them. All the representatives are writing, but Leander just sits there and stares blankly. It's as if he is not in a competition right now.

 "Hey, what is that guy from the Vrawyth Kingdom doing? I thought he is considered as the 'future Godly Doctor. But why is he just sitting there and not writing anything?" 

 I heard one of the audience said. Most of the audience is starting to mumble something to the person beside them. But the person they are talking about is leisurely sitting in front. 

 Rufus chuckled faintly. He then leans towards me. "This Leander isn't letting all the representatives go. Poor them." He even clicked his tongue, indicating he was enjoying the match.

 Csille just stares intently at Leander. Waiting for him to pick up the pen and write something.

 A minute is only left before Leander takes the pen and writes something on his paper. However, the manner of his writing is not hurried. He's slowly writing his answers. It's as if he's writing a love letter to his beloved.

 The bell rings, and all the representatives raised their hands with pens. Each representative has an observer standing behind them. Making sure that there will be no cheating and to read the answers of the representatives. 

 They start to read the answers of the representatives, but all the answers don't make sense. One representative even thought that if he wrote more words, his answer might be true. However, he already wrote a whole paragraph, but it's still wrong.

 The only ones left are the Aeslaerean Kingdom and the Vrawyth Kingdom. They first read The answer of the representative from the Aeslaerean.

 "This is because increased unconjugated bilirubin also leads to some increase in conjugated bilirubin, which can then be secreted into the gut and converted to urobilinogen." 

 The host nods his head. He will reveal the answer after they all know the answers of the representatives. The host look at the observer who is holding the paper of Leander.

 "It used to be said that this was due to the effect of the high level of bile salts on the sinoatrial node. However, recent evidence suggests that bradycardia in adults is rare.." the person stops and looks at the host. "That's the only thing written in the paper."

 The host stared at Leander and sighed. He then looks at every representative. "The only one who gets the right answer is the Aeslaerean Kingdom and the Yesian Kingdom. Both of them receive two points each. The answer to the question was perfectly answered by the Aeslaerean Kingdom. This is due to the fact elevated unconjugated bilirubin additionally results in a few booms in conjugated bilirubin, which could then be secreted into the intestine and transformed to urobilinogen."

 The questions and answers continued until the second round ended. The host paused for a minute and waited for the result to be computed. He then announced the ranking of the second round. Everyone is so nervous about the result. This is the first competition, and this will affect the overall competition.

 "For this round, the one who aces the second round is none other than the Aeslaerean Kingdom having a score of perfect ten again. The second is the Saiven Kingdom, scoring eight points. The Yesian Kingdom, Ouqeaseon Kingdom, and the Vrawyth Kingdom all garnered six points. The Wrezatia Kingdom got four points, and the Stozeterra Kingdom got two points."

 The host paused and looked at the representatives from the Wrezatia and Stozeterra Kingdom. "I'm sorry to inform you, but you two are both eliminated."

 The representatives from the two Kingdoms look disappointed with themselves. Most of the Kingdom has more than ten representatives for this competition. Each representative has only one chance to prove to their Kingdom their skills. I bet this is their only match for the Competition. It means they failed to make their Kingdom proud. 

 The competition continues with only five representatives left. It's the semi-finals. Each one of the representatives wants to reach finals so they can bring a pin for themselves. Pins are given in the Grand Exemplary Competition instead of medals.

 "For this third round, we will still have five questions, but each right answer will give you three points. And at the end of the round, the two representatives who score the lowest among all of you will be eliminated."

 The host paused and stared at each representative before he rang the bell. "For the first question. In the case of a patient who has been treated with streptokinase and has bleeding complications in the form of haematemesis, haemoptysis, or similar, how can the effect of streptokinase on the coagulation system be reversed, and can tranexamic acid help?"

 I heard Rufus groans. "Purplany, do you know the answer?" He whispered to Csille's ears.

 However, Csille just pushed his face and focused her attention in front. She is observing the representatives from each Kingdom. She wants to see their reaction.

 Most of the representatives are staring at their papers, thinking thoroughly about their answers. Each right answers are equivalent to three points with such a big pointing system. They won't answer without thinking thoroughly. They all have a troubled look on their faces. Even Leander has a troubled look on his face. 

 Does he find it difficult? But Leander is one of the outstanding medical students. Not just in the Vrawyth Kingdom but also in other Kingdoms. So why would he find the question difficult? With his knowledge in medicine, he can answer it with ease. But with how he looks right now, it looks like he is also having trouble.

 After a few seconds, the representatives of the Kingdoms starts to write down their answer on the paper. Unlike the first round, Leander immediately writes something on his paper. After a few minutes, the host rang the bells, and all the representatives raised their hands with pens. The person assigned to read their answers immediately take the paper and read each of their answers.

 "What do you think Leander will do? Will he answer the question right?" Rufus suddenly whispered to Csille's ear.

 Csille looks at Leander and smirks. "Why don't you guess?"

 The person started to read the answers written by the representatives. Some of the answers are just nonsense. They probably thought it would be too embarrassing not to write something. The representatives from the Aeslaerean Kingdom don't look good after the observer read his answer.

 Csille smirk. This guy really thought he could beat Leander Smythe, the 'future Godly Doctor? With his punny skills, he probably isn't qualified to held Leander's shoes.

 The only ones left are from the Vrawyth Kingdom and the Yesian Kingdom. The committee looked at Leander's paper and flipped it to show it to everyone.

 Everyone gasps when they see a blank paper. The host look at Leander. "The representative from the Vrawyth Kingdom, can you explain to us why is your paper blank?"

 "I don't know the answer to the question, mister." He answers nonchalantly. It's as if he just skipped a basic question like how old are you. 

 The crowd got silent because of Leander's answer. With how he is introduced, everyone has a high expectation for him. However, what is happening now is contrary to everyone's belief.

 The host clears his throat and nods his head in understanding before he signals to the observer who is assigned to read Yesian's answer. 

 "We need to stop the streptokinase immediately. Instead, we should give frozen plasma and cryoprecipitate to the patient. You could also try using tranexamic acid. If the bleeding is increased, death will be inevitable." 

 The host looks dumbfounded at first. He probably didn't expect that a difficult question like that would be answered by someone from the Yesian Kingdom. 

 After a few seconds, the host immediately came back to his senses. "Only Yesian's representative got the right answer. The doctor should stop the streptokinase immediately. Fresh frozen plasma and cryoprecipitate should also be given. Antiproteolytic agents such as tranexamic acid can be tried. No treatment is, however, very effective, and if the bleeding is significant, the mortality is high."

 The third round ended with Yesian getting twelve points while the Aeslaerean only got nine points. The third is the Vrawyth Kingdom who got six points, and both the Saiven and the Ouqeaseon got three points.

 The host sighed. "I'm sorry to announce this, but the Saiven and the Ouqeaseon Kingdom are both out of the competition. The three remaining representatives will be the ones who will fight in the final rounds." The host paused and looked at the audience. "However, for this year's Grand Exemplary Competition, the Queens made a few tweaks for the rules. The final match will be made two days before the announcement of the winner. It is to give our three sure Exemplar here time to prepare for the final round."

 The crowd gasps. It's the first time something like this happened in the Competition. But with this, our tactic wouldn't be too obvious. It will be too late for everyone to realize that we just want to make them at ease with us. And when the time comes, we will shock them with our true skills.

 "Let's all welcome our three finalists for the final match..." the host said the names of the representative from the Yesian Kingdom and the Aeslaerean Kingdom. "and the future Godly Doctor of the Vrawyth Kingdom, Leander Smythe."

 The crowd immediately cheers. Csille smirks while looking at the two opponents of Leander. 

 The Competition just started. Can they bear to go against the Vrawyth Kingdom?
