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 62

Episode 62

“Alright, that should be enough.”

“Thank you very much!”

As I, who had been training with them, said so, they bowed their heads.

Although I’m more skilled than the soldiers, they are beginning to understand how to fight against stronger opponents.

After taking a break, I observe the others.

Now, Reem and Inaesia… are still at it.

Their skills are evenly matched. Both of them are competitive, and they clash fiercely.

It’s certain that they’ve become considerably stronger compared to the beginning of the original story. Already, they can defeat monsters on the third layer of the Forest of Rebellion.

Reem skillfully wields her sword, while Inaesia handles her spear adeptly, each trying to exploit the other’s weaknesses.

…When Reem unleashes ice magic, Inaesia deflects it with wind skills from her spear.

The spear Inaesia wields was made by Vilias. She’s also proficient in using the skills attached to her weapon.

Since Inaesia doesn’t possess any decent attack magic, she needs to compensate with equipment skills. While her stats are excellent, she’s slightly inferior to Reem in that regard.

However, her equipment skills are not inferior to innate magic.

In fact, she’s able to deal with all of Reem’s ice magic.

To be honest, if you can prepare powerful skills, there’s not a huge difference between magic users and non-magic users in this world.

…It seems that in this world, it’s considered difficult to prepare weapons with powerful skills, so innate magic is highly valued.

As a result, there are stories of hits and misses, and there are children like me who are discriminated against.

However, if you cultivate skilled blacksmiths, it won’t depend on talent.

A skilled blacksmith can mass-produce equipped weapons with skills as much as they want.

There are few skilled blacksmiths in this world, even in terms of the game’s convenience.

Referring to the original story, good weapons are obtained from treasure chests or made by blacksmiths.

I’ve had Vilias make various weapons for me, and things are going well… It was definitely the right decision to make friends with her.

While discussing these things, Ruf arrives.

Behind Ruf are a bunch of High Wolves.

“Reis, I’m back.”

“What about those High Wolves over there?”

I ask, looking at the High Wolves with slight anticipation.

…These High Wolves, whom I’ve faced as enemies before, are now wagging their tails like dogs.

They’re smiling. The High Wolves are looking at us expectantly.

“It’s just as we talked about. I found High Wolves willing to join the monster corps.”

“Ohh…”

At Ruf’s words, I couldn’t help but smile.

As Ruf mentioned earlier, I’ve been thinking about creating a monster corps.

…Rather than increasing the number of soldiers, it would be easier to have monsters under my command.

“All of them are willing to join the monster corps depending on the conditions.”

“What are the conditions?”

“They just want to avoid conflicts with humans and be able to eat good meat. You should be able to provide that, right?”

Ruf also looks at me with anticipation.

…Well, if they’ll become our allies with just that, then it’s great.

Just three meals a day. With that, we’ll have fighting power beyond humans.

Thanks to Ruf, it seems I can create a monster corps just like in the game.

In the game, some monsters were tameable. However, in order to tame them, the protagonist had a special ability that made him easily liked by monsters.

Of course, I don’t have such a trait that makes monsters like me easily. Well, it’s about average.

But, even without such a thing, couldn’t I form a contract with monsters? I thought about it, and the result of cooperating with Ruf is this.

Among some monsters, there are intelligent ones, and that’s probably what these High Wolves Ruf gathered are.

“Ruf, can you act as an interpreter?”

“Yeah, leave it to me.”

After calling out to Ruf, I turn my gaze to the High Wolves.
