Villager A Wants to Save the Villainess no Matter What!

Welcome folks,

And, thank you Vector for your generous support.

The next one is again Anna's POV.

Enjoy the chapter~

–Aninsar

The man who kidnapped Anna has escaped to the imperial capital. Melissa-chan was the one who informed me of this.

At night, when I saw Melissa-chan's face in the window of my room in the fort where I was sleeping, my heart almost stopped for a moment, but I soon realized that it was about Anna and calmed down.

As soon as I thanked Melissa-chan, I went outside, took out my Buitor Rev., and soared into the sky in a vertical takeoff.

"Wait, what are you going to do?"

"No matter what, I'll bring her back!"

"Huh, good grief. Okay. We'll help you too."

Melissa-chan, who was able to keep up with the speed of the Buitor Rev., said so without hesitation.

"Eh? But you've helped me enough already."

"It's okay. Allen-san is kind of in a hurry right now, so I can't leave you alone. Generally, Allen-san always thinks about others. You could have left Jerry alone. Also, you didn't have to tell us about the weird pink girl's attack, right?"

"Oh, that's….."

"So, the fact that she was so weak even when Allen-san went out of his way to say so might be because that pink girl was someone you know and was weak because you had a hand in it, right?"

Certainly, I can't say I had anything to do with it. There's no doubt that a lot of things went wrong because I won that duel.

"That's just the way it turned out, apart from me."

"Oh, jeez. Just let me help you. In the first place, I want all those people who took away Allen-san's partner to be destroyed!"

"… Thank you, but don't overdo it, okay?"

When I said that, Melissa-chan's expression turned into a smile.

"A, a, a, Allen-san!"

Jerome flew up to me at a very fast speed and came alongside us.

"I, I-I've heard it. Leave it to me! Empire? No, I'll destroy it!"

"No, that's not what I'm saying. If we attack indiscriminately, we might hit Anna, so no. We'll have to sneak in and gather information first."

"Then, then if it doesn't hit her, is it okay?"

"Well, if it's never gonna hit, then."

"Okay. Leave it to me!"

He waves his tail as he flies. This habit of Jerome's has not changed even now. Jerome, who was such a slacker back then, seems so reliable now.

"In the meantime, I'll sneak in and look for her. Melissa-chan and Jerome, you'll be my diversion during the escape."

"Leave it to me. Also, Allen-san's partner is in the biggest building in the middle of the Imperial City."

"How can you tell?"

"Isn't it obvious? We're Sky Dragons. We've smelled and remembered her scent, you know? So, we can tell where she is right away."

"Oh, that's amazing."

"Fufufu. What do you think? Aren't you glad we're in this together?"

"Oh, yes, thank you very much!"

"You're welcome!"

And so, with my two trusty companions, I continued to fly toward the imperial capital of the Est Empire, relying on the starlight.

＊＊＊＊

And so we arrived in the skies above the Imperial City under the cover of darkness.

In the first place, I wouldn't be able to reach this point in the dark without Melissa-chan and Jerome's guidance.

Really, I've been blessed with good friends.

Now, looking down, the streetlights on the main street are lit even at night, and the lights are leaking from the windows of the palace and large buildings in the centre of town.

Apparently, it's quite prosperous.

"I'm gonna give it a shot."

I process a bottle of gasoline and dropped it indiscriminately near the palace. And this time, the fire came out in one shot. The sudden explosion and blaze near the palace have created a beehive-like commotion in the area.

"I think we're good to go, don't you?"

"That's right."

I land in the backyard of the palace, where security is thin. Then I buried Buitor Rev. under the ground using 【Alchemy】 and hid it from view.

"Then, good luck with that! The scent of your beloved girl is coming from that building. But even though it's so close, it's so weak that it might be deep inside the building."

"I understand, thank you!"

I Immediately used 【Concealment】 to hide and ran to the building that Melissa-chan pointed.

After watching me, Melissa-chan flew to the sky as it is.

Then I entered the building and looked for the entrance to the basement, but I couldn't find anything that looked like it.

The reason why I'm looking for the entrance to the basement is that I guessed it from what Melissa-chan said.

First of all, Melissa-chan said that she senses by 'scent'.

However, it should not be possible to tell where we are just by the scent we think of.

No matter how sensitive your nose is, there's no way you can tell immediately from tens of kilometres away, considering the wind and other scents mixed in.

As I recall, even the elephant, which was famous for having the best nose, had a level of a few kilometres when the wind was favourable.

In other words.

I guess that the Sky Dragon calls something else 'scent', not what we humans call scent, such as magical power. And using their nose to detect it, they chase after Anna.

And the fact that the 'scent' fades when you are in the back of the building means that it is separated by thick stones like this palace.

Because, as you can see from what happened in Cardassia, I was sleeping in a stone room, and I was discovered in one shot.

In other words, a single pane of glass won't dampen the 'scent'.

However, these buildings usually have windows in the rooms, and as far as I could see from the sky, this building has a courtyard.

In that case, there is no other choice than the basement, where the ceiling and all four walls are surrounded by thick stone or earth, and there are no windows.

Anna, please be safe!

While praying, I continued to search hard.
