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 43

Episode 43

Originally, because the evaluation was the worst, just becoming decent raised the evaluation. It’s like delinquents being kind to puppies.

For me, it’s just back to normal, but maybe that just means there aren’t many decent people in the world of nobles.

Well, I don’t feel bad about being evaluated.

With Inaesia, who had finished preparing, I left the warehouse.

Since the guild is nearby from here, having a warehouse in a good location feels like having our own home.

Supposedly, in the past, they stored stock items like potions that were difficult to place at the guild, but now expensive items that are no longer needed at our home are lined up.

If I sell them all, wouldn’t it be enough to cover the soldiers’ food expenses for about a month?

While thinking about such things, I interacted with the people in the town.

They are acquaintances to some extent, but I’ve come to know more people.

After returning greetings, I noticed Inaesia looking at me with a calm expression.

“What’s wrong?”

“Well, um… I was just thinking that Lord Reis is completely different from the rumors…”

“Rumors… Ah, there aren’t many good rumors about the Validor family.”

“Yeah… That’s right. But recently, there are rumors that Lord Reis is different.”

“The essence may not have changed, you know?”

“Even so, I think it’s good that actions are being taken seriously.”

Inaesia smiled happily.

This girl was supposed to be tsundere, but she’s been quite obedient since coming to the mansion.

She should have been living a wandering life in an orphanage.

Maybe being directly taken in at the mansion has had some influence on her personality formation.

Well, it’s good that she’s obedient. I hope she continues to cherish that obedience in the future.

“Is life at the mansion not difficult?”

“Yes. There are no problems.”

“Then that’s good. Well, if there’s any inconvenience, let me know. There may be things that can be improved within my capabilities.”

“…Thank you.”

Inaesia bowed her head.

…She occasionally shows a childish personality, but basically, she’s an adult.

As we walked out onto the main street, we were greeted by the townspeople again.

“Oh, Lord Reis! Thank you for subduing the monsters that appeared near the town the other day.”

“Hm? Oh, don’t worry about it. It was just a guild request. More importantly, were you able to deliver the goods properly?”

“Yes. Thanks to Lord Reis, we were able to respond without delay.”

“That’s good.”

“Oh, it’s Lord Reis!”

…And so on, we were greeted by the townspeople.

Compared to the beginning, more people are approaching me warmly, but I’m not sure if that’s a good thing or not.

After interacting with the townspeople for a while, we headed to the guild.

“…Lord Reis. You’re really popular.”

“Popular? It might not be popularity, you know? They’re just thanking me for solving the problems they were having.”

Inaesia and I were having such a conversation, and finally, we arrived at the guild.

Heading to the guild reception, I exchanged materials for money as usual.

While waiting, I was approached by an adventurer.

“Oh, Lord Reis! Thank you for helping us in the Forest of Rebellion the other day!”

“Don’t mention it. Have you been taking any risks lately?”

“No. Thanks to the medicine you taught me about, my daughter’s health has improved…”

“That’s good.”

It went well because I told them the solution to a problem that occurred in a sub-event in the game.

As I exchanged such words with the adventurers, the sale of materials was also completed.

With our business done, Inaesia and I left the guild.

Once again, as we walked toward the warehouse, Inaesia called out to me.
