The Villainess is Changing Her Role to a BroCon

If we don’t plant trees, the Ancient Dragon would stay here again, so we had no choice! That was a very understandable excuse, wasn’t it? Thank you, Demon Dragon King, which was also a hidden character in the story.

“Besides, the blessings of the forest are precious to human beings. If the forests are cleared and turned into farmland, and the Magic Beasts are eliminated, it will remove one worry from human life, but what will be lost along with it will be something irretrievable.”

I knew that in my previous life, delicious bread was made from yeast found in the Shirakami Mountains, medicines were developed from research on plants in the rainforest, and many other things. I knew that to destroy the forest would be to destroy such possibilities.

“I’m not going to say nicely that the Magic Beast should be kept alive because it is the same living being. I just think that human beings should refrain from losing something forever for our own future. It’s just that…”

I remember the monocular bear’s last cry.

“Humans…feel pain in their hearts when they take the life of something. Even if it was a being that was trying to kill them. Strange, I know. I wish that Magic Beast, or whatever that lives, would exist as long as it does.”

It was a somewhat naive idea, I suppose.

Oh, oops. I talked to God in my own wording with all my might.

“…”

The wolf god looked at Ekaterina with an indescribable expression.

After a moment, he said.

“You have an unusual soul.”

Gyaaa!

Selene-san, the Maiden of Death, told me that souls reincarnated from other worlds look strange to other Gods, too.

Forli-san, Aaron-san, don’t look at me. Don’t smile at me.

“You have changed your mind. Have you decided that you want a human as your partner?”

Ekaterina inwardly screamed once again as the flower-crowned princess goddess said something outrageous in a cute voice.

“Not with this one!”

The Wolf God snorted.

The Goddess turned to Ekaterina.

“By the way, were you not with my partner the other day?”

***

(Hah?)

Your partner.

…

…

I couldn’t understand it, what she was implying.

I suppose “Old Style I” should be used by an old person, but it was a bit strange to think that a beautiful young girl who looks like an angel was using it when she speaks, but partner?

How could an elementary school girl-looking Goddess having a “Partner”? 

I mean! 

Who was she talking about?

I had a scary premonition, but if it was something from yesterday…

I glanced at Aaron…he had eyes like a fish about three days after its death.

The flower-crowned Princess Goddess then mentioned in an upbeat tone.

Go for it, I was here on behalf of Big Brother, I must not do anything that will bring shame to Big Brother! For Big Brother! 

Ekaterina smiled as she straightened her back tensely.

“I see, Isaac is my Great-Uncle. Yesterday, we went to the mountain together.”

“Mm. I felt the magic of his partner, so I thought I would follow to visit him, but he left soon after.”

…When we returned from the old mine, Aaron-san was strangely impatient, was it because he had guessed this, or perhaps he had anticipated it? 

Aaron-san, did you know the Princess Goddess? A rivalry over a great-uncle? 

…Love to the point of fighting against God…Aaron-san’s love was so deep that it was now a swamp.

I would like to try my best to be a good person. I didn’t know whether I should do my best or not.

“My partner is beautiful, isn’t he? There are not many souls as beautiful as that one.”

Oh, I kind of get it. My great-uncle’s soul must have been clear and beautiful.

“You have an unusual soul, despite being related to that one. You are charming as well.”

Ah, the bowl has turned over.
