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 90

Episode 90

The moment Zangell declared, multiple attacks shot up into the sky.

Currently, attacks landed on the wyverns and grim reapers attacking the barrier, causing them to scream as they were shot down.

The grim reapers vanished with strange noises.

…They disappeared like other demons, but dropped no items.

It’s the first time I’ve faced such unrewarding monsters.

Some event bosses don’t drop materials or anything… But it shouldn’t be an event boss.

At least, I don’t remember such a boss monster.

One after another, everyone attacked, and the number of monsters quickly dwindled.

At least in the sky, there were hardly any aerial monsters left, prompting Lady Fylia to murmur softly,

“Excellent job.”

“We’ve been training since the battle in Validor… We can handle monsters like that.”

Wyverns’ strength varies by region, but soldiers here can handle them without issue.

I was worried about the grim reapers, but it seems they disappear with enough damage, so we should manage somehow.

Once we reduce the airborne monsters, there will be the monsters surrounding the city outside.

I deployed spatial magic to survey the surroundings.

Are monsters evenly distributed at each gate?

Where did so many monsters suddenly come from?

In games, when monsters appear in large numbers, it’s usually because demons summoned them… But I wonder.

As demons are currently targeting Serin, it’s quite possible.

After mostly dealing with the aerial monsters, Endria’s soldiers hurriedly approached.

“L-Lord Reis! Suzaku and Serin are missing!”

“…What?”

I sighed softly at the soldier’s words.

There was an event in the game where Suzaku and Serin escaped, but they chose the worst timing for it…

Well, Suzaku and the others probably don’t know the situation up to this point, and with the reduced number of guards, it’s the perfect time to escape.

In that case, Suzaku and Serin are likely trying to escape from the city using the underground waterway.

Now, what should I do?

I remember there was a boss in the underground waterway… Since I couldn’t level up properly, I think the difficulty was quite high. Can those two manage to defeat it…?

I’m anxious. Extremely.

Well, as long as they die in a place unrelated to demons, neither Suzaku nor Serin should go berserk…

No, but if one of them dies after being captured by nobles, that’s also a problem.

In the first place, I don’t intend to coldly push them away.

…If one of them is lost, it’ll make the ending of this world’s story completely unpredictable.

First of all, if possible… I want everyone to have a happy ending where they can smile.

“Zangell. Head towards the monsters at each gate. I’ll go after Suzaku and Serin.”

“Understood!”

From Zangell’s perspective, he probably doesn’t understand why I’m so fixated on Suzaku and Serin, but he obediently follows my orders.

“Do you know their location?”

“To exit from underground where they were, they either need to come up to the surface or use the underground waterway, so they probably headed for the waterway.”

“…Is that so? Are Suzaku and Serin that important to you?”

“There’s no direct connection, but… there’s a memoir in my family, probably left by my grandfather, suggesting that we should lend a hand if the two of them ever needed help.”

“Is that so?”

“Yes.”

I’m sorry, that was a lie.
