Stealing Heroines’ Affections Is My Job as the Villain

The next morning…

Prince Vritra was relaxing on his sofa, sipping tea with his usual confident expression.

『Ahh~ what a lovely morning. There's an old saying that only a man with a clear conscience can truly appreciate the peaceful beauty of an early morning.』

He had Ghislaine position his chair so he could enjoy the view of the courtyard outside.

Though the young lord wasn't a pervert, he did appreciate watching the palace maids bend over, lifting their skirts as they worked.

Sometimes, the maids noticed his lingering eyes, and the more shameless ones would bend down even more, trying to show a bit more skin to charm him.

Moments like these made some of them wish they hadn't started their day wearing underwear.

『The System's warehouse has finally finished processing my Starter Pack Gift, so I think it's time to open it. It took much longer than the previous ones, so I'm guessing the rewards will be a lot better this time. Maybe I'll get another fragment of Gluttonia or another item from the [Imperial Black Dragon Arsenal]… who knows?』

He spun his tea gently and then took another sip.

『If I hadn't already earned Esmeralda's trust by exposing Lumis as a woman-beater and then protecting the princess… the one person she sees as her source of redemption, she probably wouldn't trust me this much.

… Sighhh~

『I had hoped she would confront me about Luciana's current state as soon as she ensured her health, but it seems she's still scared. Honestly, I wanted to seduce her as soon as she got here and sleep with her again… that woman's body is truly something.

『However, I predict she'll confront me about it today when she brings me my afternoon tea. So, I'll wait until then.』

He closed his eyes and thought even more.

『My only concern right now is Ymnes. Well, he's not exactly a problem, but he's going to trigger a situation where a hot, crazy woman hunts me down. I'm guessing he'll turn to her last after all his political contacts refuse to engage in a power struggle with me, a literal Fiendcelestial. She's his last resort, but also his best option.』

Vritra grinned, making his mouth water as saliva dribbled down the sides like a ravenous beast ready to feast.

『Kehhh~ I can't wait to meet her…』

Naxos, the Sacred City…

Naxos was a famous city and one of the holy sites of the Melcian Religion, one of the most widespread faiths in the world. This monotheistic religion worshiped Saint Melcius, who is believed to have slain the Void Dragon God, Mavelsa, with the [Holy Sword Devaniel] and sealed his heart in a sacred church.

The sacred land of Naxos was divided into three domains: one suzerain city and two vassal cities.

One of these vassal cities was Talasca, known for its strong military tradition and strategic location, earning it the title of the Shield of Naxos.

Talasca is ruled by Beatrice Amelia Deva, the Sword Saint and one of the 10 Battle Gods of Kartikeya. She was the iron hand behind the military discipline of the Melcian Church, helping to elevate Naxos's reputation.

How did she achieve this? She established the Naxos Holy Sword Academy, which quickly became known as a haven for geniuses with talent that surpassed many Imperial Knights, even at a young age.

Young prodigies and heroes from various forces gathered at this academy.

It wouldn't be an exaggeration to say that all the youths who joined the Naxos Holy Sword Academy were the best of the best, destined for great achievements.

Many Emperors, Divine Generals, and Holy Knights in the Central Continent were once students there.

『Truly, I do not have a choice…』

This was all Lord Ymnes could think as he made his way to the deeper parts of Talasca.

『I've heard how terrifying a Fiendcelestial like God Vritra can be, but now I'm really worried about how strong he actually is. All my political contacts refused to help me in my fight against the Asura Family for an alliance with Duranzia as soon as they heard Vritra's name. It makes me realize that maybe no one in the Central Continent can face him except the divine churches or the Zelos Empire.』

That's why he was here now.

The old man stood in front of the Talascan Palace.

…

A few minutes later, Old Ymnes stepped into the palace and stopped before the colossal doors guarded by two towering giants with white, antler-like horns.

Suddenly, a gentle voice broke the silence.

"Respected Deva, Lord Ymnes, wishes to speak with our revered Sword Saint, Beatrice."

It came from a man dressed in immaculate white garments, who bowed his head respectfully.

They quickly exchanged nods, and Lord Ymnes was finally led into the throne room.

────VHWOOOOM!!

As soon as Lord Ymnes stepped into the throne room, a sword came flying at him like a spear, moving at the speed of sound. It was aimed right at him, but he calmly tilted his head, letting the sword barely miss him, though it still nicked his cheek.

… THUUUUM!

The sword struck the white walls with such force that the entire throne room shook.

Despite all this, Ymnes remained completely unfazed.

『I cannot let her notice my fear. Not for a second.』

He reinforced the iron-hard expression on his face.

"Lady Beatrice…"

Ymnes called the young lady's name with a cold tone.

The lady sitting on the throne of white crystals grinned wickedly when she saw Lord Ymnes.

"Well, well, what a surprise! It's been over a century since your last visit. What's brought you here now?"

With a smug expression on her immaculately beautiful face and a deeply condescending look in her pretty blue eyes, she leaned forward.

The young lady was dressed in all white, with a complexion as stunning as milk reflected on snow.

Her features were gorgeous and refined, with sexy long legs and an attractive nonchalance about her.

She didn't seem very old, clearly just a young adult.

Her eyes were anything but ordinary… they were like blue gemstones, glimmering as if soaked in sparkling water. She had an unworldly vibe, and a soft, glowing light surrounded her, making her look almost like a beautiful goddess.

"You've come here for that garbage, haven't you?"

The young lady chuckled sweetly again.

Lord Ymnes's eyes narrowed as he looked the heavenly maiden up and down.

His frown deepened with each second.

"Do not speak of your brother in such a manner…"

Both his hands formed tight fists──this was the only way he could control his growing anger.

『I don't want to fight my own niece.』

Lord Ymnes wasn't the type to be easily provoked. As an old man who had served many generations of the Blueworld household, he had endured enough insults and corrections to become the man he was today.

『However…』

One thing he couldn't tolerate was seeing the young lord's name being dragged through the mud. Even if he couldn't do anything when God Vritra did this exact same thing, he was eager to humble the young lady sitting before him.

『It's like she's forgotten that I was the one who took care of her and Lumis when she was just a baby. How much more ungrateful can she be?』

Old Ymnes exhaled to cleanse his thoughts.

"You'd be better off using all that anger and jealousy you have for your brother to kill someone who might become a devastating threat to this sacred land."

… Hm?

Lady Beatrice tilted her head, looking curious.

[Back at the Armed Palace]

… AaaAAHuuUnn~♡!

Hiyiiii~ ♡♡! Ufuuaahnnn~♡

Esmeralda's sweet moans filled the room as Prince Vritra squeezed her breasts with intensity, sensually grinding and pressing his crotch against her soft, plush ass cheeks.

"G-, God Vritr~ahhhh ♡! I really didn't… come here for this, ple~aseee! I… I just wanted to… ahaann ♡♡♡!"

The pleasure was almost unreal.

"But it feels like you did come here for this, no?"

The way he would squeeze her huge breasts and enjoy the sensation of his fingers sinking into her springy meat…

『It's absolutely fantastic!』

Then, he would satisfy the hardening of his throbbing, hungry thing by considerately pressing his bulge against the crevice outline of her ass cheeks──it was as if he wanted her ass crack to recognize the size of his cucumber.

"Plea~se, God Vritr~aaaahh… ♡♡!"

Esmeralda squeezed her eyes shut, trying to resist the pleasure. She hoped that if she acted like she wasn't enjoying the way her breasts were being manhandled, the dark prince might stop and actually listen to her.

"Uwaaahnn~ ♡! I feel like I'll lose my mind!"

But the pleasure was almost too intense to resist.

Her cheeks flushed an erotic pink, and her tongue slowly slipped out of her mouth as she wore a dirty smile.

When God Vritra pegged both her grape-sized, bullet-hard nipples with his fingers, he realized something.

『Oh, I almost forgot… this unskippable cutscene is meant to be after the actual plot-related cutscene. Sigh~ one of these days this villain will go on a vacation with Esme.』

A bored look appeared on his face.

『I should wrap this up…』

He painfully twisted Esmeralda's hard nipples, and instantly her eyes rolled back as her tongue lolled out for the loudest moan she could muster.

… Eyaaaaaahhnnnn~ ♡♡♡♡!!
