Warriors’ Adventures After the Doomed End by the Most Powerful Villainous Aristocrat 〜I Failed to Avoid the Doomed End, but I Was Saved by the Main Heroine, a Saint Who Turned Into a Yandere Just Before the Execution. Now I’m Going to Get Serious and Become a Warrior~
“Haa…… that’s depressing……”
I sigh at the door to my classroom.
Today is the first day of school at the academy.
And it’s also my first day at school since falling from aristocrat to commoner.
I took a deep breath and opened the classroom door.
As soon as I did, the eyes of all the students in the classroom turned to me at once.
“–V, Vane Crescent……?!”
“–No way, I can’t believe he really avoided execution …….”
“I knew the rumors were true……!”
“But I heard he …… become a commoner.”
“Really?! Hee…”
Hey, maybe you think I can’t hear you, but I can hear everything you’re saying.
I knew …… this would happen.
I had a bad reputation on campus to begin with.
I have dozens of cronies, I’m a tight mouth to teachers, and I’m a brass to all the other students.
On top of that, I’m the eldest son of the vicious Marquis Crescent.
It’s easy to imagine what would happen if I were to fall in with the commoners. ……
“Hey, Vane! Congratulations on avoiding execution!”
Suddenly, someone called out to me from behind.
I knew it was going to be like this.
I sighed and turned around to see a black-haired young man with a lowly smile on his face.
He is Illya Lentchen.
He is the eldest son of the Viscount Lentchen family, and he used to be my crony.
Well, even though I call them that, they just followed me around like goldfish poop.
Then, all of a sudden, he put his arm around me in a familiar manner and said――
“And congratulations on being demoted to a commoner!”
He said that deliberately.
“You’re welcome, Illya.”
“Oh, you ……!”
Illya raised his eyebrows at my words.
I’m just a commoner, while Illya is the eldest son of a viscount.
He was probably angry because I spoke to him in a casual manner, since I am of a lower status.
But that is not the right thing to do.
According to the school’s rules, status is irrelevant within the school.
“You are no longer the son of a marquis! You’re just a commoner. Apparently, you don’t understand that very well. …..”
Illya shook his hands.
Then he clenched his fists.
“Vane san, you’re not being very nice, are you? It’s a little bit too much, isn’t it? You left me behind. ……!”
Suddenly, the classroom door was opened with great force and a girl appeared with such a voice.
Everyone in the classroom turned to look at her, and everyone said
“The girl is a saint”
“–Sorry, Chloe,……, I wanted to get to school early today,…….”
“Mouu! Then, from tomorrow, we’ll go to school together, okay? It’s a promise, right?”
“Oh, yes. ……”
“By the way, who is that man there? …… Vane san, is something wrong?”
Chloe asks with a smile.
However,…… there was no highlight in her eyes.
Oh, Illya …… is dead.
Illya hastily unclenched his fists, sweat beading on his forehead, and began a desperate defense.
“Oh, uh …… oh, I was just celebrating my friend avoiding execution! Hey? Vane?”
“Yeah, …… and, by the way, you also celebrated falling a commoner! Thanks, Illya!”
“!?”
Sweat drips down from Illya’s forehead.
The saint is a rare existence that exists only one person in the world.
The power and influence of the saint sometimes surpasses that of the king of a country.
Compared to the saint, the son of a royal baroness is a tiny, insignificant thing.
If Chloe denounces him for a moment, it is possible for her to take down his family.
“That’s right,….heee Illya san said,…….”
Then, Chloe walked briskly towards Ilya.
–Or so I thought, she passed him and walked up to me.
Chloe gave me a bright smile–
“Vane san! Let’s go, shall we?”
She hugged my arms and said so in a voice that could be heard all around us.
Oh yeah,…… Chloe tried to protect me from the nobles using the position of saint she holds,…….
“–No way, that Saint really …… with that bastard.”
“–No way, I can’t believe she would have a relationship with that scum. …… The saint is so blind to see. ……”
“I can’t believe her eyes were so blind…… we’ll have to wake her up from this dream somehow.”
Then I heard such voices from many places.
For some reason, I was more uncomfortable now that they were saying bad things about Chloe than I was when they were saying bad things about me.
“Chloe …… are you okay?”
“What do you mean ……? I’m fine?”
Chloe said with a puzzled expression on her face.
No, no,…… it’s not okay at all.
The proof was-
I could feel Chloe’s faster heart rate through my arm.
Not only that, but there was a little sweat oozing from her cheeks.
Chloe is trying to do something she’s not used to, trying to be brave, trying desperately to protect …… me.
That’s probably not the first time that’s happened.
When she argued against the king, when she told me I didn’t have to worry about scenarios, …… maybe even before that.
All along, she’s been single-mindedly trying to do the best for me. ……
“Thank you, Chloe.”
“Eh? What are you talking about?–kyaa!”
I gently hugged Chloe.
And then I took a good look around.
“Anyone who has a problem with me, go ahead and fight a duel with me. …… Of course, it’s not just me, but anyone who has a problem with Chloe.”
I said this out loud to everyone in the classroom.
The only thing I can do to reward Chloe from now on,……, is to use the strongest power I have to protect her and return the favor.
And – to make her happy.
For that reason, I couldn’t afford to cause any more trouble for Chloe.
“If you’re not confident in your strength, you can use your skilled vassals and friends as your proxies,……, and I’ll crush them all.”
I said this as if declaring, as if making up my mind.
“–How could a guy like that …… with Chloe!”
I didn’t know that the hero of the game – Felt – was watching the whole thing.
