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~
At night, I move to the library where Grandpa Ton is.
He is very good at teaching me, and he teaches me only the main points of the magic books.
So I was able to learn most of the basic magic in this short period of time.
I’d like to learn some healing magic today.
I said to myself as I turned to go into the stacks.
But at that moment, I feel a presence behind me.
“Who is it?”
I said and turned around.
There was a person wearing a black cloth standing there.
I instantly sense that this person is no ordinary person.
“Unfortunately, I’ve been exposed.”
The man in the black cloth said and pulled out a knife from his pocket.
The knife has a bare blade, and I know the moment I see the sharpness of the blade.
He must be here to assassinate me.
I immediately get into a fighting stance.
“Who sent you?”
I ask, and the figure in the black cloth smiles.
“I won’t tell you,”
The next thing I know, he’s moving right in front of me.
I quickly try to keep my distance, but it is already too late, and a knife is about to be inserted into my abdomen.
“Intermediate magic, wall of flame!”
I create a wall of flame from the ground to repel the knife.
I try to trap him with the wall of flame, but he reacts quickly and runs away.
“Huh?? I heard you are an incompetent prince.”
The figure in the black cloth says this to me, but I ignore it and cast the next spell.
“Advanced magic, flaming spear!”
As I say this, a spear of flame appears and shoots toward the opponent.
“T-This is bad.”
The opponent mutters and tries to avoid the flaming spear, but the flaming spear tracks him.
The man in the black hood is directly hit, and an explosion sounds.
“Hey, you want to tell me who sent you?”
I shout as I walk toward where the man is lying.
“Damn it, I heard he’s an incompetent prince. ！！！！”
“Oh, wait!”
The man in the black hood sees an opening and leaves the storeroom.
“W-What the hell is going on?”
According to the original story, after graduating from the academy, I was supposed to be assassinated, and now I’m about to be assassinated.
Usually, it is probably Alice who is targeting me.
But am I a threat to Alice now?
Alice is an excellent person, and there is no need for her to do something unnecessary now to put herself at a disadvantage in the battle for the throne.
Another possibility is Adele.
But Adele was popular as a gentle hero in the original story, and it is hard to imagine him plotting my assassination at this stage.
Then who is trying to kill me?
Until I know, I can’t make any moves.
Well, I’m not going to lose to most opponents now.
But I must be on my guard.
Thinking about this, I headed for the storeroom where Grandpa Ton was.
