Villager A Wants to Save the Villainess no Matter What!

After that, days passed by, and also Amy was not pushed down the stairs by Anastasia.

To be precise, Amy was trying to summon Anastasia to the stairs using her tricks, but Anastasia every time excused her using the teachers or her cronies. (TL:- I am changing entourage -> cronies.)

As a result, the end of the semester came without the event where Amy gets pushed down the stairs.

Of course, there was also a final test, and the results were posted.

It feels a little refreshing.

No, I'll correct it. It feels rather refreshing.

It serves you right!

In the game, Anastasia, who was mentally cornered, had a breakdown and lost first place in her grade to Amy. As a result, she was further cornered, which led her to lose her calm in the condemnation event, so she requests a duel. But the result this time was, opposite.

Amy dropped to 5th place in the grade, Anastasia returned to 1st place, and Anastasia's cronies improved to 3rd and 4th place.

Moreover, Crown Prince Karlheinz, who has been talking so highly of himself, got a result which was easy to find if counted from the bottom.

Even more! Leonardo, the future knight Captain, who tried to force Anastasia to admit her false charge, is at the bottom of the list for the second term consecutively.

Serves you right!

When I was looking at the bulletin board with that in mind, Anastasia called me from behind.

"Allen. I didn't lose this time."

Anastasia's voice is bouncy. I turn back and compliment Anastasia.

"Congratulations to Anastasia-sama. You got a perfect score."

"No, isn't Allen's also a perfect score? As expected. Congratulations."

"Thank you"

I obediently bow to Anastasia.

"Allen-kun, as expected, good job."

"Margaret-sama, congratulations on 3rd place."

When I turned to Margaret's voice, there I saw Margaret smiling and standing side by side with another one of Anastasia's cronies. This seemingly unassuming person with brown hair and dark eyes was, I believe, the one who harassed Amy in the game.

"Thank you, But with a little more effort, I could have lined up with Anastasia-sama."

Although she regrets saying that, her expression is satisfying.

"Allen, she's Isabella. She's the daughter of Viscount Luinberg. Isabella, as you know, Allen is a scholarship student."

"Isabella-sama, I'm honoured to meet you."

"Nice to meet you too, Allen-san. I'm sure we will be in the same class from next term."

"Allen, Isabella was in class B until this term. But with this grade, she will definitely be in class A. Get along well."

"Thank you so much. I look forward to working with you."

I said so while greeting her, but unfortunately, I would be leaving this school if the condemnation event happens.

A vague feeling of guilt remained in my chest.

＊＊＊＊

And that night, a graduation cum promotion party was held at the banquet hall in the royal castle, inviting many guests and all of the students.

It's December now, so the school is going into winter break, which will continue until the coming spring, resulting in a long vacation. It seems the aristocrats with territories will return to help or learn by themselves. In-game terms, it is treated as a period for level grinding.

Now, the sons and daughters of the aristocracy have already gathered in the banquet hall. And they are chatting with each other wearing luxurious dresses. However, such gorgeous dresses and chats have nothing to do with me. I wore my usual uniform, and as usual, I'm standing by the wall.

The food provided is all cold and rich food, but since I will never have a chance to eat it again, I will take my time savouring it.

Anastasia is with her cronies, and Amy is along with the prince & Co. as usual. I felt a little sad when I thought that today would be the last time I would see this scene.

When the party was in full swing – although there was no alcohol being served – the best student from each grade was announced.

First, a graduating second-year student was called in. He had excelled in academics, magic, and swordsmanship, but he hadn't had enough of it, so he had done some research and worked with a university professor to develop a new magic stone.

He went up to the stage, gave a speech, and then, for some reason thanked the prince and went down. The venue was filled with applause.

Then it was the turn of us, freshmen. An announcement was made in the hall.

"The freshmen highest award goes to Crown Prince Karlheinz Bartille von Centraren."

As soon as the name was announced, the audience erupted in applause. However, the expressions on the faces of those applauding varied: some seemed to be congratulating from the bottom of their hearts, some looked disappointed, and others were not interested but were applauding just for the sake of it.

However, no matter which route it is, the crown prince is always called here, and the condemnation of the villainess from the stage is the event in the game.

"The crown prince has achieved excellent results, especially in swordsmanship and magic, and has been involved in well-rounded research with the experts in academics, as well as deeply dug into social issues. This award will be in recognition of those achievements of his."

The Crown Prince went up to the stage and received the award as if it was a matter of course.

Then he turned around and looked at us from the stage.

"Thank you, everyone, but this wasn't something I could have done alone. Now, those who are being called come up on the stage. Claude Justine de Westerdale, you never cease to amaze me with your excellent eye for details. Please continue to be my good friend."

"Yeah"

"Markus von Beinz, you are my rival in magics, but at the same time, your cool judgment has always helped me."

"Yes"

"Leonard von Jukes, you have always been my sword, and I thank you for your tireless efforts."

"Yes"

"Oscar von Wimlet, you never cease to amaze me with your ability to see the true value in things. I'm counting on you to keep up the good work."

"You can count on me."

All the capture target go up to the stage. And after a pause, the prince opens his mouth.

"Amy von Brayes, I think I've grown a lot as a person since I met you. I hope you'll always be by my side."

"Yes!"

Amy happily ran up to the stage and into the arms of the prince. However, many guests frowned at her unconventional behaviour.

"This achievement of mine was only possible with their help. I will not forget this and promise to study hard to become a good king who guides the people."

"Karl-sama"

"That's right. You can do it."

"I will also support you with all my heart."

A farce took place on the stage, and the audience applauded it.

I was staring at the scene with cold eyes.

"And there's one more thing to declare here."

The crown prince declared in a clear voice and took a breath.

"Anastasia Clynel von Ramslett, come forward."

Author's Note:-

I received a new review from Yatsu-sama. It's astounding how I received reviews in quick succession in such a short time.

Thank you very much!
