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 34
Episode 34
…The way you phrase it, it makes me sound like some villain who makes others do everything, so please stop that.
But anyway, Inaesia, huh? That kid was quite popular in the game too.
She’s a typical tsundere character, but her good character design and adorable moments when she’s dere made her popular in the game.
Her performance is also high, so if I can bring her along, it’ll boost our strength. …Well, whether she agrees to it or not depends on her.
Although the children still seemed wary of me, there’s no point in staying here.
I activate spatial magic to transfer to the Validor’s teleportation stone.
“What’s that…?”
“My spatial magic. I’m going to connect it to the city where I live now, so come along. Well, it’s like a teleportation stone.”
“…A teleportation stone, you say.”
Seeing Ruf and the others looking surprised, I thought it would be better to go first and show them, so I pass through the hole first.
The destination is in front of the teleportation stone.
As I head there first, Ruf follows behind.
It might attract attention a bit, but as soon as I pet Ruf’s head, people around quickly assume he’s a pet, so there’s no issue.
Luckily, he’s wearing a collar too.
“…You need to be careful when going outside.”
“…Yeah.”
Unlike the village Ruf was in, it’ll be difficult to move around freely here.
Following Ruf, the three children also tag along.
…I’ve used quite a bit of magic power.
But there’s still plenty left, so it’s okay.
I’m proud of myself for having gained quite a bit of leeway.
“Well then, I’ll briefly guide you through the town while we head to the mansion.”
Saying so, I head towards the mansion with Ruf and the others.
I don’t particularly discuss detailed matters with my family.
The three children are treated as servants, and Ruf is secretly accounted for as part of our strength.
My family doesn’t know all the details, and I leave the specifics to the agents.
They only get noisy when it comes to swindling to buy their own things.
If I speak up, it’ll only make things more complicated.
The agents promised to allocate the expenses for the servants if I tell them so.
Since there’s a dormitory for the servants to use, I have the three children go there, and I immediately ask Ruf to use his appraisal magic.
I show him the dagger I have.
What I show is the mithril knife.
“Ruf, can you check the skills attached to this dagger for now?”
“…Hmm. The only skill attached to it is [Agility +25%].”
…Oh, I see.
I thought it was a pretty good dagger, but I never imagined it had the highest rarity of skill.
As for the Dark Fang, the skill is fixed, and the Gladius has no skills.
I’d like him to examine the equipment I collected from special monster hunting, but there’s quite a lot.
Well, that can wait for another time.
“Alright then, Ruf. That’ll be all for today. Until you settle in, please take care of the three.”
“…Is that alright?”
“Yeah. I plan to have you change skills later. So, just prepare for that.”
“Understood.”
…The three children must still feel anxious.
As for me, I’ve learned what I wanted to know for now, so I part ways with Ruf and the others.
It’s probably better for them to leave it to the servants and Ruf rather than having the three stay wary with me around.
To effectively utilize Ruf’s power, I head to Vilias’ forge.
Today, I’m accompanied by a guard soldier and Ruf for the visit.
Of course, she’s already scheduled for an appointment.
Vilias’ forge was located in a pretty ordinary residential area.
…Blacksmiths use magic to make equipment. As long as they have the materials and the rank of the blacksmith is sufficient, they can craft using only magic power, so the location doesn’t matter.
As the door opens slowly, Vilias appears.
