Reincarnated into a Game As the Hero’s Friend

“This is not directly related, but come to think of it, Mazell…”

“Hmm?”

“I’ve ended up going out with Lily.”

Mazell’s face turned into a scowl when I said that, and then he smiled wryly. Laura next to him looked interested. Feli and Luguentz also look amused, Elrich had a smile on his face and Old Man Uwe didn’t seem to be interested.

“…I see…I think I get it…” (Mazell)

“That was a fast change of reaction.” (Welner)

“Well, if it had been anyone other than you, Welner, I’m sure he would have behaved differently.” (Luguentz)

Mazell responded to Luguentz’s Tsukomi with a wry smile.

“But with Welner, there’s no reason to be suspicious.”

I was a little worried, but then again, though I worry about the siblings trusting me unconditionally, the best I could do was to respond to their trust.

“So, how did you end up like that?”

Let’s see. What should I do about this, how should I satisfy Laura’s curiosity?

After all the explaining to Laura and a brief exchange of more information, I decided to leave first. I was not worried about Mazell and the others, and they also trusted me. There was no sense of doom and gloom for either of us. We only wanted to live up to each other’s expectations.

As I walked through the night streets of the royal capital with this in mind, Neurath and Schunzel gradually started to watch my surroundings, revealing their wariness.

“Let’s go to a less crowded place. It’s inconvenient here.”

“Okay.”

We made sure that the people tailing us were still following us, and deliberately entered the alleyway. It didn’t take much time before shadows appeared around us.

“Welner Von Zeav…”

I pulled out my spear from my magic bag and simultaneously thrust it into the person who was trying to call out to me. The words were cut off in mid-sentence, and the opponent fell to the ground with a spray of blood.

The opponents surrounding us stood still for a moment, and Neurath and Schunzel took advantage of that moment to cut down one more person.

“Don’t go one-on-one. We’ll cut them down one by one as a group.”

“Yes, sir.”

“We will.”

There was no need to take it easy or warn the opponent, who seemed to be dripping with killing intent or rather overflowing with it. Since they have surrounded us, they must have more numbers than us. We took the initiative and attacked first.

The opponent brandished his sword towards me, but I knocked it away, and then I continuously thrust the tip of my spear into the enemy, knocking him down. The pressure was strong enough that this guy would definitely not survive the strike.

Next to me, Schunzel skillfully switched positions while striking his opponent, and Neurath slashed at another opponent, cutting off his arm with a single blow.

“Damn, don’t be a coward, fight us one on…”

“Too slow!”

The speed and strength with which I thrust my spear out was serious as I didn’t have any intention of capturing them.

I soon managed to secure my third kill, while Neurath and Schunzel also killed three in total, at which point our enemies turned around to escape.

“Shall we go after them?”

“No, it’s unnecessary.”

There was a possibility that they would ambush us after we chased them. Above all, they probably wanted to cause a commotion. If we made a big commotion by doing something useless, that would be playing into their hands.

“These guys probably only need the fact that I was attacked. That’s why nothing else happened today. That’s nice.”

“Hahaha.”

“I see.”

I only checked the weapons they were holding, since they probably didn’t have anything to identify themselves anyway. I was sure it was coated with something. I should just get one and submit it to the state tomorrow.

“How did they know that we were around here?”

“I don’t know.”

The buildings around the Zeavert residence should be safe, and there were also guards on the road some distance away from the mansion, so it would be useless to even think about attacking us around that area.

For the time being, we just have to be on our guard until we reach our territory.

“You guys can stay at the mansion today.”

“Thank you for the hospitality.”

I wondered if I should ask them to stay with me during the experiment that I was planning to do later as well? I would think about it later. First, I needed to make sure I was able to return to the mansion safely while showing it to the public.

In addition, I would like to ask their opinion on the souvenir I was preparing for Mazell and the others. I was sure that they would be curious about it.
