I Was Reincarnated as an Incompetent Villain Prince, and When I Was in the Dark for an Oshi, the Hero Seems to Have Lost His Temper. Apparently, the Hero Is Also a Reincarnated Person~
“What do you think, Master?”
Kureha asks me this while wearing a maid’s outfit.
The outfit suits her very well and she looks lovely.
“It suits you, you look cute.”
Kureha smiles happily when I say so.
I’m in my room at the castle, taking a break.
And Kureha is wearing a maid’s uniform.
“What can I do for you?”
“Basically, just relax, but come to me as soon as I call you.”
“I understand!”
“Speaking of which, the academy starts in a few weeks, so why don’t I study magic with Kureha?”
“Is that okay?! Thank you master!”
Kureha said with a big smile.
Well, there will be a lot of nobles when we enter the academy, and it would be better to study magic so that Kureha will not be made a fool of.
Then we move to the library where there are magic books.
There are many books lined up, and the magic books alone occupy three rows of bookshelves.
I take out a book with beginner level magic and a book with intermediate level magic from among them.
“Please memorize all the magic in these books for now, because there will be magic classes at the school.”
“I-I’ll do my best to …… remember all of this. ……”
Kureha then looks through the beginner level magic book.
I’m going to read the rest of the advanced magic books too.
I’ll have to look through them when I have time, because I won’t have time to read them.
I move to the place where the advanced magic books are.
“Hmm?”
I feel a gaze from a little distance away and turn around.
There, I see Ria, the third princess, looking at me.
She is Ria Red Harkim, 16 years old.
Unlike her sister Alice, Ria is a girl with a rounded personality and wears her long white hair down.
She looked at me intently.
I have been a fan of Ria’s since the original story.
The reason I learned magic like this is because I wanted to gain the strength to protect Ria.
Ria wants a peaceful kingdom and is trying to help the people who are suffering from bad government.
Because of her character, she has the support of the people, and many of them have been saved thanks to her.
However, in the original story, she lost the battle for the throne and was killed by the assassins of the second princess, Alice.
That’s why I want to protect Ria.
“W-What are you doing here?”
“I heard that Roland oni sama has been studying magic lately, so I came to see if it’s true.”
“Oh, well, I’m royalty, so I thought I should be able to use magic as well.”
“I-I see you’ve changed, Roland oni sama.”
Ria says this, but looks a little happy.
I was famous in the original story as the prince who couldn’t use magic, but not anymore.
“Well, you see, I have someone I want to protect.”
“S-Someone you want to protect? The person that Roland onii sama wants to protect…….”
Ria mumbles to herself and thinks about it.
Then, Ria turns her gaze to the advanced magic book I have.
“A-advanced magic!? Can you, Roland onii chan, use advanced magic!?”
I am a little surprised.
It is unusual for Ria to be this surprised.
Well, it’s true that I was famous as a prince who couldn’t use magic.
“O-ou. I can use magic.”
Then Ria opened her mouth with a twinkle in her eye.
“Advanced magic is usually the kind of magic that a magician can only learn to use after years of study.”
“That’s right.”
“I can’t believe it only took you a few months to master it.”
The expression on Ria’s face shone brightly as she talked excitedly about this.
It had been a while since I had seen her smile.
After all, my Oshi is soothing.
“Haha but don’t tell too many people about it. If they know I can use advanced magic and target me, I’ll be in a lot of trouble.”
I warn her.
“Of course, I won’t tell anyone.”
Ria said with a smile.
I knew it would be nice to see her smile.
“I’m sure …Roland onii sama will turn this country into a good one.”
Ria suddenly said something like that.
“I’m not interested in the throne, you know.”
“Eh”
I’m not that ambitious.
I would rather live a peaceful and quiet life.
So, I’m not interested in the throne.
“I’m going to do everything I can to help Ria take the throne.”
Well, I’m going to protect Ria, of course, but I’m also going to help her make the connections necessary to become king.
“Roland nii sama, I’m not strong enough…..”
“I’m sure Alice and Adele are strong opponents, but we only have a chance now that they haven’t completely seized control of the country. I’ll help you and we’ll work together.”
“Roland nii sama, ……! I understand.”
When Ria said this, she took a deep breath and looked at me.
For some reason, her face has changed from before, and she now has a reliable expression.
“So, I’m going to go back to my room.”
“Yeah, see you later.”
Ria waved her hand at me and left.
The look on her face just now was serious.
I am sure Ria will work hard to win the title.
I cheer her on from the shadows.
