I Was the Heroine, and in the Sequel, Even Though I’m a Mob, All of My Stats Are Maxed Out

“I think it was when the two of us got separated in the dungeon of the West Tower.”

I remembered that time, of course. At that time, my relationship with Alvin-sama was still not very good, and I remembered feeling quite awkward.

I risked my life to leave the dungeon, and after that, we grew closer, but I wondered if there was an opportunity at that time for someone like him to like me.

“Nina, open your mouth.”

Alvin-sama picked up my favorite fruit-filled chocolate and brought it to my mouth. I opened my mouth and the chocolate was placed in my mouth and his fingertips touched my lips.

Alvin-sama smiled happily and pulled me into a hug. He put his arms around my back and buried his face in my shoulders. He was so indulgent and composed that I felt dizzy.

“When did Nina come back?”

“A-About two months ago.”

“…. Yes. Sure enough, it was a success.”

“What?”

“No, it’s nothing.”

Alvin-sama shook his head and continued.

“Have you met any other people?”

“…. I met some of them. By chance.”

“They all hid it from me…. Well, of course, they did.”

“….?”

After that, I explained what happened after I came to this world and why I had been hiding.

Alvin-sama hugged me and quietly nodded and listened to me until the end, but….

“So, from now on, I will live quietly─”

“What are you so worried about, Nina?”

“Eh? I don’t want anything to happen to the others.”

“I’ll protect them all. Then there will be no problem, right?”

It was true that Alvin-sama was a wizard with considerable power. Still, could he handle everything by himself?

Alvin-sama raised his face and reached for my ear. He gently brushed my hair over my ear, tickling me.

“I absolutely won’t let anyone die, and if Nina wants to live comfortably, I will prepare the environment and everything else you want. I’ll do whatever it takes to make Nina’s wishes come true.”

“….”

“I can even do that now.”

Alvin-sama’s words sounded convincing.

In retrospect, he had just teleported from Cerevista to here in an instant. First of all, it would definitely be impossible for a normal wizard. Even if it was possible, it would consume a considerable amount of magic power, and the burden on the body should be heavy.

However, Alvin-sama seemed composed. Did he originally have this much power?

Magic power was usually inborn and didn’t suddenly increase. It made me feel a little uncomfortable.

“I’m no longer the person Nina knew.”

“…. What does that mean?”

“Hey, Nina. What else can I do for you? What should I do to make you stay by my side? Tell me.”

I was at a loss for words, finding no more reason to refuse.

If he really had the power to protect everyone, I could no longer say anything.

“The kind Nina surely won’t be able to push Alvin away in that state.”

I finally understood what Owen said the other day.

If I refused him here, what would happen to Alvin-sama? There was so much at stake now that I could not refuse just because I wanted to live freely.

“You don’t have to give me an answer right now. I’ll show you through my actions, so I hope you’ll watch by my side.”

I had no choice but to nod my head when he looked at me.
