One Day I Became a Burikko Villainess Noble Girl, . Honto tutorial .
Think of it as throwing money at the author and Alphapolis, and getting a book with squiggles and pretty pictures as a pleasant extra.
Right now Im in Beatrixs room.
Trying my best with my unsteady legs, I had thankfully made it as far as in front of Royce-samas room, but I hit my limit and couldnt stand anymore. Achille happened to be there and carried me after I collapsed though. To begin with, its all Achilles fault that I became like this.
It seems that the room next to Royce-samas was prepared for Beatrix, and by chance she was also standing there in front of her door. I know now why husband and wife have rooms next to each other, so Im not going to stick my nose in it. After all, I get the feeling that if I cause trouble for myself, Im going to go through a rough time at Achilles hands again. Even though hes got such a skinny body, to think he had that much endurance Its fraud.
Um, M- Camille-sama. If it pleases you, how about resting in my room?
Beatrix gave me a much a much wanted suggestion, so I took her up on her offer. Listening to Achille say this, and that, and dont stay out too late was tiring though Im not a kid, so I know that much. Geez.
Ever since I got married to him, hes been nagging me even more. Hes almost like a mother, warning me about thiss, and thatt. But despite saying this and that, he definitely wouldnt give up on me. Im aware that Ive gone in some weird directions as a woman, so I want to treasure Achille who says that Im fine like this anyway. I have no intention of changing the direction Im heading in though.
And so, going back to my first topic, it was decided that Id be passing the time in Beatrixs room.
I had something I wanted to talk to Beatrix about as well after all, so it was a good chance. I told Beatrix the rough details about what the Heroine and extremists had done, and how we would be catching them in the future. Shes the person who might become our next queen, so I thought it would be better to tell her about to danger of the extremists. At the same time, feelings of guilt about her marriage welled up in me. According to what I heard from Achille, it was an engagement brought about by Royce-samas unrequited feelings, the situation with the Heroine hiding in Topageria, and various other things. When I tried asking in further detail, for some reason Achille was evasive about it Why?
Personally speaking, Id like Beatrix to come to like Royce-sama. In the past, I probably would have been jealous of her, but right now I already have Achille as a husband. Although I still think of Royce-sama as wonderful, it isnt a romantic feeling anymore. In that cause, Id like to cheer him on.
But. When I considered how Id tell her about all this, a number of problems came up. How should I explain this to her? Im not entirely clear about the situation, so there are lots of parts that I cant fully explain.
Royce-sama brought up the issue of the Heroine and said Wed Beatrix to me and help me capture the Heroine and Ill overlook some of Topagerias responsibility in this to a degree. If you dont, its war. Its no good. If I said this, Royce-sama looks like a villain. Then how about, Im making Miss Beatrix the queen of Garnet, so go help us out with catching the Heroine? This is no good either. Its filled with Royce-samas self-interest.
Having only heard bits and pieces, theres a limit to my ability to explain things. Its no good. I guess it might really be better to have Royce-sama explain things himself. Hes the one who chose her as a bride, after all. I decided to pass all of the explaining to Royce-sama. Ill leave the rest to you.
Oh thats right, Ill call Mei-chan over as well next time. Shes here at the castle too, after all. Shes pregnant so she shouldnt do anything strenuous though.
Eh- pregnant?
The surprised Beatrix rose her head, and stared right at me.
Right, with Raiga-samas child.
-I, see.
Beatrixs eyes were swimming. She was a Raiga fan, so she might have received quite a shock.
Looking out the window, I found that the sun had already set. Id feel bad about staying too long in Beatrixs room, so I stood up. It can feel more power in my legs than before.
It looks like youre still struggling to stand up, but are you alright? Arent you feeling ill?
Im fine. This is, umm.
The words were stuck in my throat. My cheeks immediately started to burn. I-, I cant say it Because Achille did this and that to me, I ended up unable to walk properly.
Look now, it looks like you even have a fever.
T-, Thats not it. This is, I, just dont have any strength in my legs Umm, last night.
Eh-? Ehh-, could it be Ah-, AHHH!
It seems that Beatrix finally understood. Her face also turned red in a flash. My face burned even hotter S-, So embarassing. Because it was so embarassing, I couldnt raise my head, and just flopped onto the couch. Its a bit of a breach of manners, but its just us two here so there shouldnt be a problem.
W-, Well, youre newlyweds after all.
Beatrix gave an odd follow-up.
Uuu
Achille is different than how he seems, huh!
Please, just stop speaking
Uuuuu
After crouching for a few minutes, I somehow managed to get my blushing under control. Alright. Time to withdraw.
Beatrix, umm, thats how it is, as far as its possible, Id be happy if you cooperated with us. I know that it isnt my place to say this after all thats happened though.
Y-, Yeah. As long as its something I can do, Ill cooperate with you, Miss Camille.
Thanks.
Because a bit of the embarassment was left over from before, its still a little awkward.
This is my personal opinion, but if youre going to directly face the Heroine, then I think that in the end, pulling out the secret character would be effective.
Secret character?
You dont know about him?
I tried thinking back to the past. Speaking of which, the might have been something like that, but I ended up here without finding out who it was. And Id forgotten they existed all this time. Even the walkthrough sites at the time still hadnt uploaded any information on the secret character after all
Sorry, I ended up here while I was still playing the game, so I only know about the four romance and friendship routes. Did you clear the route for the secret character, Beatrix?
Yeah, after you clear the four romance and friendship routes, as well as all the bad ends for the protagonist, he appears.
Was that how it was? I ended up coming here while I was in the middle of clearing the bad ends after all. The bad ends took an emotional toll after all, so they were really tough for weaklings like me, after all. So naturally my game clearing speed fell. I mean, the Heroine just kept dying, and dying, and dying after all.
And so, about that secret character is he strong?
He has mana that compares to the Heroine.
Was there such an amazing person around? What a blindspot. As expected of Beatrix.
By the way, what kind of person were they?
What kind of person, huh? Hes just the school headmaster though.
Beatrix gave an odd follow-up. The word odd here is actually bimyou, and means um, like Well, basically theyre saying that its neither here nor there or hard to make a judgement on. When something is bimyou, its like, its not too bad, but not too good either. Or maybe, its not quite appropriate, but not exactly inappropriate either. Like, in general, things that are bimyou are just things that are hard to give a straight judgement on. Like, if you eat something and it tastes bimyou, its sorta like ehhhhh, not BAD, but like not good either, sorta.
