Reincarnated into a Game As the Hero’s Friend

Chapter 16



Chapter 16

Thats why, Can you meet my daughter once, Mazell-kun?

Correct me if Im wrong, Viscount Ungar. But from what I know, your daughter is only three years old?

If given a chance in the future, I will surely meet her, viscount.

Mazells face stiffen when I said the viscounts daughter is three. He must be having a hard time preventing himself from giving a straight refusal and answering the viscount as such while desperately giving me the signal to help him escape.

Well, this is what happened since Marquis Norporth left. Really. Its fine if those nobles asked Mazell to meet someone his age, but why do they also ask him to meet a grandma above 50 and a girl below 10? They must have thought of Mazell, the man with [Hero] skill that defeated a devil as a delicious prey.

As for me, I did get some meeting offers, but the amount is nothing compared to Mazells. Is it because hes more handsome than me

Come to think of it. I didnt remember that this kind of scene existed in the game.

Considering the game itself had little mention of nobles, I guess thats expected. Plus, originally, the Crown Prince is supposed to die in that battle. After the Crown Prince died, most nobles probably went to the frontline themselves and ended up as corpses. It makes sense that none of the nobles will be relaxed enough to offer their relative to the hero.

This is also not a good time to relax actually. Not that anyone knows.

Thanks for earlier.

If youre grateful, treat me a lunch later.

I will even include breakfast and dinner. sigh

Mazell said, with a rare, extremely tired voice. Im also tired. Those nobles keep coming like waves, and I need to talk non-stop to entertain them in the meantime. My throat, which just healed a few days ago, hurt again.

At least, Im glad I learned this worlds noble etiquette in advance. You dont know whats going to be useful, eh.

But those waves of people is really something isnt?

Arent you supposed to be used by it? Mr. popular student?

Thats right. Mazell is also pretty popular in the academy. I hate to admit it, but he got both the face and the personality. Hes also quite a gentleman to the woman.

Thinking about the academy reminded me of something. Some of the noble ladies who attend the academy choose only to form relationships with other nobles. In that group of ladies, sometimes I saw them enchanted by him while saying, If only hes a noble 

Then they will continue to say, A noble lady cant have a free love! to themselves. I pitied them. Its not like my pity will make them approach me instead, though.

Why am I even thinking about this. Anyway, even without being a hero, Mazell is already a valuable item and his value will only continue to increase in the future.

That value increase depends on his accomplishment in the future battle with demons, though.

Now that this kind of marriage market ahem I mean banquet event that originally didnt happen in the game had happened, I dont think I can rely too much on my game story knowledge anymore.

I apologize for interrupting your conversation.

Ah, no

Ah, there is no need to apologize. But, do you need something from us?

When I looked in the direction of the familiar voice, I froze. 

Mazell didnt know. Thats why he can ask something like that. As for me, Im currently trying my best to calm myself. She gave me a curtsy, and when I tried to bow to her, she raised her hand to stop me and smiled.

Theres no need to be that stiff, Viscount Zeavert. Please, be at ease.

You sure said it like its the easiest thing to do, maam. Wait, is she supposed to be in the palace now? 

Lets put off that question and calm my beating heart first. The impact of seeing a girl who is the hot topic, even if shes just a game character in real life, is quite something.

Her beautiful blond hair swayed earlier when she gave us a curtsy. My mind finally catches up to me, and I remember that this was the first time I saw a curtsy, and hers was truly elegant. Is this perhaps a captivating movement often said in a novel?

Allow me to introduce myself. I am Laura Louise Weinzierl. May I have a little bit of both of your time?

Here comes the games main heroine.

Isnt she really beautiful?

She is, and all other royals have a good appearance too. Who knows, maybe good appearance is one of the conditions to become a royal?

As we were following Her Highness, Mazell asked me in a low voice, so I answered him. Its not like I can talk about how DNA affects a persons appearance here, so I just left it with that answer,

I can tell how Mazell treated her with quite a bit of respect, despite her being a young woman. Its probably because of this noble dignity that she carried herself with. This is something that I only feel when I actually meet her in person.

Anyway, despite my earlier answer, I also think Mazell didnt lose to the royals in terms of his appearance. Im not jealous. No. It makes me think again how different he, the main character, and I, the supporting character is.

What? Im just a mob, not even a supporting character? Mind your own business! 

Well, rather than thinking about supporting characters what-not, Im more curious about where will she bring us to?

Please follow me inside.

She said as she passed the guard and entered another hallway separated by a huge double door. Ive realized it before, but her every little movement carried an elegance. As expected as a real princess.

Also, I never realized when I read those reincarnated into a game story that hearing a real person talking with the voice of a voice actress is kind of strange, especially since I know other characters voiced by the same voice actress.

Its a shame that I cant hear Lauras playful voice, unlike in the game.

I stopped thinking of her voice and observed my surroundings. We seem to keep going deeper into the palace. I remember this area. You can only enter this area in the game after the demons half-destroyed it.

Then, is the reason I cant enter this area before the demons attack because of the earlier guards? I dont know if those guards existed in the game, though.

As I was thinking about the game, we arrived at a courtyard decorated with a sculptured fountain. There are also roses blooming in the courtyard. Even I, who have little to no artistic sense, think that the courtyard is quite beautiful.

We walked to a gazebo near the fountain. Wait, isnt a gazebo only supposed to exist starting from the 19th century? Why is it here, in a medieval world? Whatever. Game logic, lets ignore it.  I mean, even the difference between a castle and a palace in the game is pretty blurry so adding a supposed nonexisting thing isnt a big deal.

What I should pay attention to more than the gazebo is the man sitting inside while enjoying tea. I know him. 

Welcome. Viscount Welner von Zeavert, Mazell Hearthing. Thank you for coming this far.

Of course I know him. Its the Crown Prince. Why is he here?
