The Villainess Comes Back in Time to Find the One Who Truly Loved Her One Week Before Dying

Mason, who had been driving the carriage silently for a while on the move one evening, called out to me.

"Hey, Chelsea. Can you use magic?

"... magic? Can you use it for once? Just a few kinds of elementary magic though.... What's wrong?

"Bye, use the magic of the strongest defense system you can do right now and hide from the outside. And don't ever leave the carriage until I'm good."

"... Huh? Why? What's wrong?

"Quick!"

……

With Mason's rare fortification of his narrative, I understood that an emergency had occurred. And I followed Mason's instructions as soon as I shut up. By hiding myself from the outside, I couldn't see what was going on outside from here either, but I heard voices and sounds.

"Hey, brother, I'm sorry, but I need you to show us the wagon load."

"!! hey temee suddenly what r..."

… How dare you...!! Bastards, him!!

After that, yells, screams, sounds like multiple humans rushing around, screams, metal sounds, screams, sounds of something bumping into each other, screams.

- Don't!!

Only once, something hit the carriage I was hiding in, too. As Mason told me, I hid myself invisible from the outside, and I just had to shake in fear and cry and wait for something being done outside to end quickly.

"Thank you for waiting."

After a while, Mason came back to the carriage. I was in a panic state, I couldn't even respond to him anything, I just kept crying.

"Let's move a little and then take a break. Oh, you shouldn't look out now. Stay put for a while."

I wonder how long it's been since then, I felt very long in panic, but maybe it was actually about ten minutes. I thought the carriage had stopped, and after a while Mason opened the carriage door and spoke gently to me.

"It's all right now."

"... wow!!

... the moment I saw Mason's face stretching out his right hand to me and smiling at me, I hugged him and cried.... the woman who turned eighteen is lame. It's a baby.

"Okay, okay, you scared me. I'm fine now."

Mason kept hugging me until I settled down and kept my head gently.

They've been attacked by thieves. Until now, it was mostly through promising seaside roads, but since we got in this afternoon, it's been a route through the inland woods.

Apparently, a local thief who was unlucky enough to find our carriage at that time attacked us with the intention of taking the load.

"One way or another, I feel more like attacking them."

According to Mason, he's not very good at fighting while protecting something. But there has to be something in me, so I was slaughtered by thieves from him without question as the best way to protect me.

As soon as the first couple showed off their differences in strength, they thought they would lose their will. Not surprisingly, they killed a significant number of thieves.

During the battle, I could immediately understand the identity of what had hit the carriage only once, seeing the outside of the carriage door and the traces of red and black blood that had stuck on the wheels.

... If I were just a magician who could protect myself, or if it was Mason alone on that spot, maybe Mason could have fought smarter. Useless killings could have been avoided.

... I'm your luggage. You're useless. I should have studied magic harder. I should have been able to protect myself as much as I was. The magic itself is supposed to be pretty strong.

◇◆◇◆◇◆◇◆◇◆◇◆

Approximately three hours northwest of the Rosedale Reinhardt metropolitan area, we had come to the entrance to a forest that was unnamed to be home to many lower monsters such as Almiraj and Goblin.

Mason is a favorite long sword and man-gosh for his usual adventurer-inspired outfit. They look great and cool.

Eileen had a light swordsman style outfit (approx.) that seemed simple and easy to move. She had a long sword on her right hand and a small shield on her left. Fresh because it's usually made-up clothes!

By the way, she, at first, seems to have been a duplicant using the same man-gosh as Mason, but she changed it from the middle of nowadays because the current style is more suited to her.

... I didn't know you should have only been learning swordsmanship for a year, but you'd already knit yourself an original way of fighting different from your master's. You're horrible for a gifted talent.

Well, they don't stick out of the boundaries of Beckford Stream Double Swordsmanship (which I call my own) as a way of fighting because Mason's use of Man-Gosh is mostly for defense.

And I was dressed like nothing but an evil magician: a black and deep purple hooded robe with a disastrous pattern on the hood and sleeve area.

No, you can't come in a dress, and a luxurious blue robe that proves to be a Rosedale family magician is subtle as an adventurer's battle suit.

That's why I bought an expensive magic robe for this expedition that has the effect of amplifying and enhancing the magic of the Dark Attributes that I have the highest compatibility...

Yeah, because it's a dark attribute. This is the kind of design you get, isn't it? I feel a little sad that it suits my villain face very well.... but I will focus on practicality without worrying about visuals.

I have brought a long sword and man-gosh for personal use at once, but they probably won't let me use it. I don't have enough swordsmanship skills, and most importantly, the only magic I can use because Mason and Irene are both swordsmen, and it makes sense for me to be backwards and thoroughly supportive.

Honestly, I don't have the courage to slay demons in melee yet, and let's focus on my role as a magician today.

"Now around here, I'll explain how to fight today and what to pay attention to. First of all, my lady, me and Mr. Eileen will be at the avant-garde, so the lady will need magical backup."

"Okay."

I intend to do that from the beginning.... but Eileen changed the way she called me "Mr. Cathcart" to "Mr. Eileen," and I'm very unhappy to remain a "lady," Captain.

"Mr. Eileen is basically free to fight. I'll follow up. Just don't have to tell me, but always be aware that protecting your daughter is a top priority."

"Yes, of course."

Mmm, so it's like I'm your luggage again. Hmm, because today you're literally gonna show me what I mean about being reborn.

... Of course, I'm very glad to hear that you both take super care of me.

"Mr. Eileen is definitely strong, so he shouldn't be the first to take a fall behind the demons in this forest.... I just want you to be aware of one thing: you shouldn't hesitate at all to slaughter or kill someone. Just hesitate for a moment or feel sorry for the other person and think you will be killed the next moment"

"... Yes. I remember the liver."

"And from here on out, please do both of you a favor. This is a real fight. The enemy has been desperately resisting to survive. Never look at your enemies sweetly. Never spare any power. Fight as hard as you can to get home alive. May I?"

"" Yes!

"Okay, let's go. Best regards,"

Would you have gone about half an hour through the woods? In a space that was a little like a square, I came across a huge bunch of rabbits with long, sharp horns growing on their heads.

Even though they're rabbits, each one is about the size of a big dog. How many... about seven or eight? That must be the "aluminum large" one. Oh, I noticed this one over there, too.

... All right, here we come, my show. It's not a bad prospect here, and there's still some distance, so it doesn't involve Mason or Eileen. Reborn me for real, the full power of a maiden in love, I'll show you!

Let me handle this place.

The two of you nod silently and quietly, putting up a sword to cover me. Imagine magical activation in your head at the same time as you accumulate the magic flowing through your body in your left arm. And with your mouth, you cast a spell.

After a while, everything was ready. Demonstrate enough accumulated magic while unleashing your own magic clothed with images and "powerful words" in your head...!

"Gatier!"
