Villager A Wants to Save the Villainess no Matter What!

"Why do I have to talk to those guys?"

I questioned the soldier who came to call me, not hiding my grumpiness.

"But he insisted on it. Even though he's a prisoner of war, he's still the Crown Prince of the Centraren Kingdom, moreover, he asked me to bring his acquaintance Allen-dono. Also, I don't think there is any danger because everyone is tightly restrained."

"Huh, that's a hassle."

"It's okay. I'll also go with you and talk to him. Besides, even if I can't use the sword, I'm already good with magic. If it comes to it, I'll protect you."

"No. I'm most worried about Anna's personal safety…."

Jeez.

I can't believe that after all they have done, they would still want to have a word with me, even though they have turned their swords against us as an enemy.

I wonder which one is the saint and which one is the villainess.

So I came, unwillingly, to the room where Amy and her reverse harem were being held.

When I entered the room, the five of them stared at me with eyes as if they were avenging their parents.

Everyone is tightly bound behind their backs and gagged except for the Crown Prince and Amy.

By the way, the soldier on guard has left the room and is waiting a short distance away from the door, as there may be some private conversation. Also, Anna has been asked to wait in front of the door instead of going inside.

The Crown Prince noticed me and immediately commanded me in a condescending, pompous tone.

"Hey. Commoner. Release us now. It's treason to rise up against the royal family!"

Is this guy still talking like that in this situation? Is he sane?

"That's right. Do you think you can do this to me, the Saint of Charity?"

Apparently, this woman has not yet awakened from her dream.

"Hey? More importantly, unravel the rope?"

Moreover, I don't know what she was thinking, but she suddenly changed her attitude and even made seductive advances with a goofy act.

Disgusting!

Do you really think you can ensnare me with something like this?

I ignore Amy's unpleasantness and inquire, looking straight into the Crown Prince's eyes.

"I would like to confirm something to Your Highness. The one to secretly sell Anastasia-sama to the Empire and forged the Jade seal was Your Highness, right?"

When I inquired about that, the Crown Prince nodded without any signs of being afraid.

"I'm the King of the future. There's nothing wrong with this. Besides, the Empire wanted that woman. Moreover, if it brings back the Bruseni region, then that's good! That is the responsibility of the nobility!"

"Did you make a deal with that Günther, the Magic Division Commander?"

"That's right! If only you hadn't interfered, we would have gotten Bruseni back bloodless!"

I see. Did you really believe that ridiculous story and got in on the deal?

"Amy-sama, did you know that story? No, was it Amy-sama who instigated it?"

Amy then snorted and said in a triumphant manner.

"Hmph, isn't it obvious? That woman is there to be messed up and become a weapon of the empire. I'd rather you praise me for doing the right thing."

I wonder where the goofy act from earlier went.

"That's right!"

The Crown Prince immediately affirmed Amy's remarks, and the remaining three nodded to Amy and the Crown Prince's terrible arguments that did not even make sense.

These guys are hopeless. They don't even seem to have the ability to make decent judgments anymore.

No, it seems Markus and Oscar have an atmosphere of recovery.

What the hell happened?

"In the first place, the Est Empire didn't have any intention from the beginning to return the Bruseni region. Anastasia-sama was only one of the pretexts. In the first place, it's crazy to invite soldiers from an enemy country and trick the Duke of your own country."

"What!"

The boiling point is as astonishingly low as ever. I don't think it was this bad in the game.

Well, people are influenced by those close to them in their life, and the other person was that Amy, not the real heroine.

On that point alone, I have sympathy for this Crown Prince.

As I'm thinking about this, Amy is agitating me with her usual supercilious attitude.

"But that woman has fallen into the hands of the Empire. She's probably enchanted by the Demon Sword by now, you know?"

You. Didn't you want me to fall for the honey trap?

I'm a little confused because her words are too incomprehensible.

"I knew it. That woman must have had enough darkness in her heart to be attracted to a magic sword."

It seems that the Crown Prince simply believes in such absurd words of Amy.

"Eh? Are you okay? Why did you believe in the Demon Sword so easily?"

"Amy, the Saint, is saying it! There can be no mistake!"

Saint, huh?

The next moment, the door was opened with a clang and Anna, who had been waiting outside, entered the room.

"What? Anastasia?"

"Why are you here?"

The two of them shouted in surprise, and the other three widened their eyes as well.

"It has been a long time, Your Highness. And everyone else, too. You seem to be as full of energy as ever."

Anna says hello, or rather sarcastically, and comes over to my side. I gently support her as she leans her body against me.

It's not like this was meant to insinuate them. Anna can walk normally now, but she has been forbidden from overdoing it for a long time.

"And Your Highness. You're missing the title? I am now the First Princess of the Ramslett Kingdom. I have been telling you this for a long time, but as usual, you don't seem to have learned it at all."

"Wh-what! We do not recognize the Ramslett Kingdom! You are nothing but rebels! Don't you think you should be ashamed of yourselves, to be clinging to and supported by a commoner like that, while claiming to be a Princess!"

The Crown Prince's tone made me and Anna sigh at the same time.

"Your Highness, be careful how you speak. Even if you do not recognize the country now, you will soon be forced to recognize it. And I will not allow you to insult Allen as a commoner."

Anna then stared at the Crown Prince with cold eyes. The expression on her face was different from the one she used to wear for the sake of her country as if she were looking at a piece of filth.

"Allen is my fiancé. Insulting my fiancé is the same as insulting me."

"Huh? Engaged to a commoner? Have you lost your mind?"

The Crown Prince's eyes widen in surprise.

"No. Allen is the hero of the Ramslett Kingdom. He saved me from the dastardly plots of His Highness and the Empire, single-handedly destroyed most of the enemy in the battle against the Kingdom of Xaus, and also successfully destroyed the army of the Centraren Kingdom, which had invaded the Ramslett Kingdom for an unreasonable cause. It is only natural that the Princess of a country would marry such a rare hero. Looking back on past history, there are countless stories of such a marriage."

"What? So you're saying he's the cause of all those explosions? You refuse to fight fair! You coward!" (T/N:- childish shit.)

Anna, without changing her expression at all, says to the Crown Prince, who is startled, shouts loudly, and for some reason curses at me.

"In other words, this is also a political marriage, though Allen and I are in love with each other."

When Anna finally relaxed her expression after saying that much, I gently hugged her. Anna responded by hugging me back tightly.

"Well, that is why there is no release. Though I think you can go home when the agreement to end the war is signed, so you'll have to stay here and be quiet, hmm?"

Having said all that, I noticed the staff on Amy's waist.

"Hey! Why does a prisoner have a weapon?"

I hurriedly hid Anna behind me and stripped Amy of her staff.

"Hey! Give it back! That's mine!"

"N-No way, this staff is!"

"That's right! It's a staff for me, a saint! You, who is not the chosen one, is not allowed to have it! Give it back!"

Certainly, this staff is familiar.

Yes. This is none other than that staff that awakened Amy as a saint in the game!
