The Main Heroine Likes the Extra

11 – Carefully, but one by one, sure

Sisters Eve and Riel tell their story after years of unraveling.

My impressions after hearing the story of the two.

‘Is it horror?’

People around you fall for someone and betray you, especially for no reason.

If this isn’t horror then what is it?

…No, if you think about it, I went through it just a while ago.

Liliana Edwin.

Because she fell for Alan and betrayed me for no apparent reason.

No, let’s forget it.

Because she swore to forget about her and never mind her.

A crazy situation that brings the story back to square one and betrays even the trusted aides.

Even if you’re like me, you might go crazy.

In common sense, it would be absurd that only servants would betray their masters, but that kind of thing actually happens.

If it was realistic, it would be a summary order, but damn, this world wasn’t that strict.

This world is the world of harem.

Among the harem members, there are maid-like servants and even slaves.

Above all, among the harem members of the original work, there is a person with a maid attribute who betrays her tyrannical master and helps Alan.

By the way, let’s imagine that a rebellious servant or slave can be summarily punished by applying a strict standard. Then immediately, that heroine is confirmed to die before becoming a heroine.

In the end, it can be said that expediency for the development of harem waters resulted in the tragedy of the two sisters.

As for Alan’s attempt to frame me, the reason for calling Eve, it really ended in vain.

The reason was really insignificant.

“You are the heir of Count Wentos, aren’t you?”

It is power.

Well, after all, power is the best.

“Alan, no matter what that bastard says, he’s just a knight’s son and a commoner. He’s the only one who loses if he tries to frame you without proof.”

I think so. I am an aristocrat, and he is a commoner.

And there is no evidence that I did anything bad to Riel.

“The momentum of Count Wentos is such that even high-ranking nobles cannot ignore it, and they are also related to the royal family. To be honest, Alan who is openly hostile to him is strange..”

Eve added, ‘Well, he was someone I didn’t understand from the beginning’.

In conclusion, Riel was always afraid of Alan. And I looked at Alan in an unusual way because he was the ‘original protagonist’.

It means that the two of them performed a collaboration grunt in pairs about something they didn’t have to worry about.

Wow, that’s a bit embarrassing.

Rather than that, Count Wentos…

It is my home where I was born and raised in this world. No matter how much you think about it, isn’t it too grandiose to be a family from a villain who exits early?

In fact, in the original work, it happened because the characters appearing in the latter half just added the setting up, but there is no need to talk about the circumstances of the original work here.

“After hearing the story, I’ve said enough for Your Highness to intervene.”

A few words from Phyllis sent a chill down my spine.

If he intervenes, even things that end quietly won’t end quietly.

It’s an unwelcome opponent in my situation, where I want to deal with it quietly, even for Riel’s sake.

…Personally, it’s a bit awkward.

Also, it’s a story that can be noticed to some extent when Eve appears as the antagonist in the original work, and Eve’s boss is Princess Aine.

Aine Gine Princess Palaginia is one of the characters who appeared as Alan’s antagonist in the original work.

To be precise, Princess Aine and her twin sister, Princess Rune Erna Palaginia, the first princess, appeared as the main antagonists.

I have a feeling that meeting Alan with the princess, who is really fiercely hostile in the original work, will be quite annoying.

Of course, we will encounter them someday, but not now.

I once again thanked Phyllis for desperately preventing Her Highness Princess Aine from interfering.

Well, I’ve come to the realization that I shouldn’t completely trust the original work, but there’s nothing wrong with being careful.

Isn’t a completely different image from the original unfolding right in front of your eyes?

“Ehe”

Riel let out a good laugh.

Eve sat Riel on her lap and stroked her hair.

…There was no such thing as the ‘older sister who hates her younger sister’ in the original work.

If there’s a guy who sounds like that when he sees that figure, it’s because I want to open my mind.

“First of all, as the boy won the duel today, he was forbidden from approaching the boy.”

Phyllis began briefly explaining the situation.

Something… It feels like an office worker giving a briefing during a company meeting.

“As long as the young lady is with the young master, he cannot approach the young lady because of the promise, so that part can be relieved… But the opponent is that rotten child.”

She just couldn’t be relieved.

Unlike framers, it wasn’t a problem that could be solved with power alone.

Mysterious things happen around Alan Ludwig.

Strangely, things turn in his favor, and people around him support him.

It is a situation that Phyllis and the two sisters who have actually experienced that fact cannot be relieved of.

To be honest, the first thing I suspected about the idea of going crazy around him was magic.

But of course, that fact was denied.

It is none other than a wizard with the best qualities in this kingdom.

“There is absolutely no magic, because there has never been a sign of magic before.”

Eve Ignis was a child prodigy when it came to magic.

There was no way she wouldn’t have doubted magic when she went through that terrible incident in her childhood.

“If it’s magic, it must be magic that works on the mind like charm, and such magic is strictly forbidden in the kingdom.”

Yes. In fact, if Alan Ludwig shook the duchy with something like charm magic, Eve Ignis would have already seized the evidence and accused him.

“But even if it’s not magic, there’s no doubt that there’s some mysterious power at work. Even though he doesn’t seem to know anything about it.”

After listening to Phyllis, I had a slightly terrifying thought.

If Alan Ludwig had such a power, and if he had been able to use that power consciously himself, a more terrible road to hell would have unfolded.

“And it seems that there are individual differences. Not all students were favorable to him.”

Oh, that’s the first time I knew that.

I didn’t know that because I always saw Alan hanging out with girls and saying kyahahahahauhuhu.

Eve asked, squinting her eyes at Phyllis.

“What kind of characters were there specifically?”

“Typically, the young lady of the Marquis of Brune and the young lady of Count Reyme seemed to disapprove of him.”

It is a recognition that only remembers that both of them are in the same class, but they are people who know their faces.

“And the Lady of Grace, in her case, she hated the man.”

“…All of them are high-ranking nobles. Are they related to something?”

“I’m not sure about the specifics.”

The name that came up this time was a familiar name.

Duke of Grace.

Her name is Seira Grace, and she is the only daughter of the Duke Grace, who is the twin of Duke Ignis in the kingdom.

It’s true that she knows as well as her high-ranking aristocrats, but it was also because she comes out as her villain in her original story.

Of course, now that we can’t fully believe in her original work, we will have to properly evaluate her later.

“As long as you don’t know anything about that man’s power, it would be dangerous to move hastily. We’ll just have to wait and see the situation for the time being.”

Eve Ignis had a bad aftertaste, but he had no choice but to come to that conclusion.

After confirming her sister’s heart, she was full of desire to kill Alan Ludwig right away.

But if he could, he would have burned him as a child.

Because if you kill someone for no justification, that’s nothing but a criminal.

It’s a story without justification.

Eve looked at Riel, who was sitting on her lap.

A cute child who still has traces of his childhood, but at the same time, I felt a bit brighter.

Perhaps it was thanks to that child in front of me.

It was time to return to the unit, and Eve stood up.

After hugging Riel, who was regretting her breakup, Eve thanked Phyllis again and then looked at Kyo Wentos.

“Thank you so much for this job.”

Eve reaching out her hand for a handshake.

Kyo Wentos also took that hand and shook it, and Eve said with a smile.

“It seems that her sister is very obedient. I will ask her not to be sad.”

I wonder if it was an illusion that Kyo Wentos’s spine felt cold as he faced that smile head on.

Eve was about to leave after saying goodbye.

But then, as if she had remembered something, she looked at Riel again.

“By the way, Riel. Speaking of your exclusive lady-in-waiting, what was her name?”

“You mean Ilya?”

“Yes, that was the name.”

A maid who succeeded Phyllis and took the position of Riel’s exclusive maid.

Ilia Agnes.

It was definitely that name.

“Hey, I don’t mind any excuses, so can you send me some errands?”

The smile on Eve’s face when she said that was beautiful, but a bit creepy.
