I, who was reincarnated as the villain character in a game, was secretly enjoying my role as the villain while pulling off heroic moves behind the scenes. However, my actions were exposed to my fiancée, who absolutely despises me - Episode 11

Episode 11

Upon returning to the mansion, my brothers, who had returned earlier, were praising Princess Fylia for being unharmed.

“T-Thank goodness you’re safe…!”

“I can’t believe it, Princess Fylia defeated the High Wolf!?”

“…It was your brother who defeated it.”

Princess Fylia points at me.

Upon hearing her words, my brothers widen their eyes in surprise, then chuckle.

“Princess Fylia, you’re joking.”

“He’s the most useless person in our family, you know? This trash who can’t even use magic properly can’t do anything.”

“Could it be that our soldiers—”

“Be quiet!”

Princess Fylia explodes.

My brothers tremble in fear at her overwhelming presence.

As Princess Fylia touches my shoulder, she continues to speak.

“He’s useless? Then what are you two?! Thanks to him, my life was saved while you were running away! If you have no strength, just report honestly from the beginning!”

“T-That’s… ridiculous!”

“But, this guy is useless and—”

“…Alright, that’s enough.”

Princess Fylia returns a cold stare.

…It seems like she’s completely lost interest in my brothers.

After exhaling shortly, Princess Fylia says,

“I understand your lack of ability. I will report this incident to my father.”

“W-We must have been misunderstood—”

“There’s no need to talk to you. Mr. Reis, thank you, and I look forward to meeting you again.”

“…Yes.”

Princess Fylia coldly dismisses my brothers and leaves with a smile for me.

It seems she doesn’t dislike me after all.

After Princess Fylia leaves, the family holds an emergency meeting.

“…W-What should we do?”

“…F-Father… Isn’t this really bad?”

“…Well, it’s fine. I got a bit scolded, but I promised to do better from now on! Well, I’m childhood friends with the king, after all!”

“Wow! Seriously?! But how are you going to do better?”

“I was told to allocate military expenses properly and gather talented soldiers. Well, I can easily cover it up. I’ll just say I bought everything for the soldiers.”

“That’s true. You’re amazing, Father!”

“Hahaha, of course.”

It seems nothing has changed.

…For now, I’ll wait and see.

I don’t want to end up in a desperate situation.

To build a strong body, a decent diet and training environment are necessary.

Although I have many complaints about my family, it’s the best environment for me to do as I please, so I don’t want to leave here if possible.

…It reminds me of my past life. The company I worked for was declining in the industry.

Without exploring new fields, the company cut costs by offering early retirement, and many talented people left without clinging to the company.

I was doing my job while thinking that our company would probably disappear in the future, and I prayed that it wouldn’t happen while I was still alive. But I never thought I would experience the same thing again.

It’s a desperate situation, but I need to prepare myself to protect myself, as there may be another crisis involving Princess Fylia that I hadn’t considered.

Even if High Wolves are dangerous monsters, the city won’t be in ruins just because of one.

If that’s the case, there will likely be another incident where Princess Fylia’s life is threatened, and I’ll end up losing an arm again.

…If I prepare properly, I should be able to manage somehow.

Besides… this is an opportunity.

It’s a chance to get this house.
