I Reincarnated as a Mob Villain in a Game World I Had Been Playing~ Using My Knowledge of the Game, I Lived a Carefree Life but for Some Reason I Became Famous Everywhere~ - Chapter 2 - Connection

Chapter 2 – Connection

Relying on the moonlight and sometimes checking the map, he walked for tens of minutes with the girls in his arms—

“Where are we…?”

“Ah, this is a hideout I built.”

When I answered the blind white-haired girl, the red-haired girl immediately voiced her pursuit.

“Y-You… You’re not just an ordinary spy, are you? …You even have a hideout in a place like this…”

That’s right. The man had found it.

A stone staircase hidden in the grass and trees that also serves as the entrance to the treehouse, a hidden sub-base made when he played the game.

I can’t believe this place is actually still here… Though it’s insanely dusty…

The man rested his feet with such a thought in his mind.

“Ah, I don’t have time to rest.”

“H-Hey. Can Remy be saved…?”

As the man approached the frail blonde girl—Remy—who had been lowered onto the bed, the red-haired girl also approached, limping.

The blind girl was sitting on bed holding Remy’s hand.

This distance suggested that they all know each other.

“If I remember correctly… I should have items stockpiled…”

“I’m asking if there’s anything Remy can eat…”

S-Surely, there must be something left… This place is still here after all…

Hearing the girl’s concern, he opened the box of items under the bed—It contained items that drowned out the man’s fears…

Nice…

All the equipment he had accumulated and all the elixirs in bottles when he was playing FF was inside.

This world is a continuation of his game world system, and there was no sign of equipment rusting or medicine rotting inside.

“…For now, take this medicine.”

“Don’t be ridiculous. How can mere medicine have an effect on her fatigue—Huh?”

The man took out the bottle containing golden liquid.

“I’m not really sure… But I think it’ll work.”

“W-What… T-That color indicates the highest grade…”

“Well, I know it’s valuable. But (since it’s just a sub-base), I only keep the important stuff. Look.”

“A-Ah…”

He took out two more elixirs from the box.

This medicine, which has the effect of ‘curing everything perfectly’, is one of the hardest to collect in the game world.

For some people, it may be priceless.

Since I have 17 of these left, it seems like I won’t have to worry about money…

There was nothing more gratifying than to know that things are going well.

As the man closed the item box with an involuntary grin, a voice with a hint of fear was heard.

“Y-You… Just who are you really? …How can a mere spy use these items without permission…?”

“Don’t ask any more questions.”

—Gulp.

The more this man was pursued, the more trouble he would be in.

The red-haired girl, for some reason, swallowed nervously when the man told her to stop.

“In the meantime, you guys can use this. If you drink this, you’ll be cured of your limp and blindness. Well, it’s just too much to carry all three of you any further.”

“Y-You’re just saying that on purpose…”

…I mean it…

This reincarnated character may have more muscle than the average person. But it would still be hard.

“U-Um… Do you have the Legendary Elixir for me as well?”

“Yes. Here.”

Knowing that the girl was blind, he made her hold it in her hand and check the real thing. 

“It’s unbelievable…”

“It’s special. Drink it quickly before I take the bottle away.”

Saying those words, he stood in front of the sick and weakened Remy.

“You’ve done well holding up. I’ll give you a drink now.”

—Gulp.

The girl couldn’t speak, and all she could move was her head. If help had come a little later, it would have been too late.

The man opened the lid of the bottle and slowly poured the liquid into her small open mouth. Her whole body was then enveloped in a green light, which soon dissipated into the air.

W-Whoa…

The man opened his eyes to see the exact same effect as in the game, and noticed that the girl’s face, which had been so haggard, had softened.

But now was not the time to be impressed.

“Rest for now. It doesn’t cure mental fatigue, I think.”

“T-Thank you…”

“Yeah…”

Remy’s body felt more comfortable, and she immediately started to sleep. Perhaps it was because she felt that she was finally in a safe environment.

When the man looked back in relief, he saw the two empty bottles. 

Then, there was a red-haired girl who was checking her limping foot timidly, and a white-haired girl who opened her eyes and shed tears, probably cured of her blindness…

“I wonder what you’ll have to thank me for when I get you home safe and sound.”

“*sniffle*…”

“*sob*…”

“…At least listen…”

The man didn’t know how long the girls had been ill.

However, as if to show that they had been inconvenienced for years, even the stubborn girl began to have tears streaming down her cheeks.

Let’s just take it easy…

Quickly realizing that it was not the right time for a light-hearted remark, the man wasted no time in opening the item box and double-checking its contents.

Red-haired girl—Karen Dior Aldi.

White-haired girl—Nina Quarrier Ansage.

Blonde girl—Remy Traria Albrella.

The man had no way of knowing that each of them had a prominent family name and that he was not in a position to talk to them lightly.
