Reincarnated as a Villain That was Killed Before the Game Starts

The Eagle Beast Man/Feather collaborator was one of the knights escorting Hilda's room.

Claude's men were out of time when they found him, and he must have hurt himself because he didn't think he could escape.

Let him investigate which hand, though Claude said.

"As is often the case, don't worry. It's no use thinking about who's after you with too many verses in mind."

Ixis says that.

An assassin from Hilda's home, a nobleman who Hilda used to hurt, to a guy who didn't really think Hilda would rule this territory.

Hilda also bought grudges.

"Why are assassins even coming from my parents' house?

"Hilda is the royal family whose father is an elf, and whose mother is a florist (rather than a harlot) of slave identities. But the magical talent was out of standard among the elves, and he was welcomed as a royalty."

According to Ixis, elves are a magically superior society, and women are definitely more magical, making them queens.

Hilda was a half with humans, and although she is married to humans on top of that, she seemed to be endangered by the sisters after the throne for her presence.

"Eight years old, you can manipulate space and follow the legendary dragon. They call you a monster, and you can only be seen as dangerous."

"Is a contract with a dragon that great?

He spoke of it as normal if he asked Ixis, who shrugged his shoulders, and made me ask how feared and strong the Dragons were.

"It's amazing how Hilda can follow Ixis, such a strong dragon clan."

"... if I hadn't been otherwise alarmed, there would have been no such thing as a guy"

Inspiring. Speaking of which, Ixis pointing his mouth like he was annoyed.

"So you're not saying Hilda is awesome, you're saying Ixis is an accidental shop?

"That's so... don't get annoyed"

Ixis seemed like a complicated mood.

Hard to handle really.

"Well, anyway. Perhaps you can assume that the dead escort knight was the mastermind and that Feather was used. He's the one who stole the key."

Unshackle the feather, allow it to fly freely, and then instigate (or what?) to attack me.

I guess he also used the difference between me and Ixis and plotted to kill Hilda.

That's what Ixis seemed to think.

"But even if they did, I don't know if they blamed Feather. Even if we get them out of the barn and give them a chance, we need enough to tie them up with a pledge."

"A pledge is like a contract you're on with Ixis or Claude?

Ixis nodded to my words, yes.

"But can you do that to me?

"I guess Meiko can't do it right now. Even if it's just about mastering (soaked) their true names, they have tricks and talents, and the magic that binds someone's destiny is pretty complicated and advanced. If you fail, it will turn back on you, so it's dangerous."

If you ask, Ixis will say that.

"Then you can't."

If you squeal like that, well, Ixis will forgive you for not rushing.

"We just need to finally make Feather swear and assume that he has. Kids don't know what the original pledge is. Plus, he's got a lot of pride, so you keep what you say."

The important thing is to promise yourself that Feather will keep his vows.

That's what Ixis said and laughed.

●●●●●●●●●●●●●●●●●●

Ask Ixis to show you to the cage with the feather.

"What? Have you decided on my disposition yet?"

That's what Feather said to me when he showed up.

I found out in those words that everything attacked me in preparation.

My eyes are still flaming with hatred for me.

Though I wandered for a moment, there was an Ixis behind me.

That alone gives me a little courage.

"Gilbert is in the land of beasts. We'll see you in a week."

I don't know why you tried to kill me, but from what I've heard, they say, "Because I hate you" and it's visible that the conversation ends.

That's why I cut it out.

…… What are you talking about? "

Feather made me look weird all I wanted.

"Before I lost my memory, I wasn't dumping Gilbert, I was sending him back to the land of the Beastman. Here's your travel certificate."

If I stuck a bunch of paper on the feather, I received it and started watching.

Feather in the first place, it didn't look like I was studying much, but I wonder if I could read the letters.

Is the kingdom of the beast common with humans?

"What does this mean? He dumped Gilbert... didn't he kill him?

When I waited still thinking about it, I murmured like I didn't know why Feather was.

Apparently Feather can read letters properly.

What bothered me more than that was Feather's mouth that Hilda had killed Gilbert.

"What do you mean you killed him?

"That's what the guy who gave me the key said. Tell me it was in Hilda's room and show me Gilbert's tail. Which is the truth!?

To my inquiry, Feather screams like confusion.

Apparently Feather was blown into the enemy that Gilbert was killed by Hilda.

I don't want to admit that my dear friend's dog beast, Gilbert, is dead.

But it is in Hilda, who hates, who speaks of the hope of being alive.

That seemed to be unnecessarily confusing Feather.

"Is Gilbert dead or alive? That's what you need to know with those eyes, isn't it? I wonder if I can find some answers to my troubles in the house."

Now is the time to fold.

Speak as great as possible, in a foolish manner.

I'm going to try and make it look like Hilda, but is this how it works?

Hilda doesn't appear in this part of the game, and I have little memory of being Hilda.

In the meantime, I don't think it should be a problem if we go with the feeling of looking down on others from far heights.

"Going to the kingdom of the Beast would be no harm to you, would it?

"... what are you up to"

Feather has turned his doubtful gaze on its sincerity that Hilda should not have done this in good faith. As expected.

"It's easy. Make a pact with me. I want that heart to pledge to follow me and protect me."

"Why should I protect you?"

"Nothing. Am I okay? Even if I kill you here. In that case, you'll never know what's going on with Gilbert."

chuckles, stirring up fierce (cheering) feathers.

All the while Feather clogged the words.

I guess I was just worried about what Gilbert was doing.

The truth is, I was going to make the pledge to the point of 'not killing me'.

But that was weak as a reason to make a contract, and Ixis told me to change it to 'Protect Me'.

"If you're going to die anyway, shouldn't you have any remnants of your heart?

"... ok. Let's make a pledge."

With Gilbert's cheap and pride on the balance, Feather finally broke.

Preferably seems like a very thick kid for friendship though he has a high temper.

Threaten a servant who was protecting the barn to open the door and let out the feather.

Then the three of us, including Ixis, headed for the garden.

The skies of the other worlds are blue, scattered with stars and beautiful.

Under the light of the blue and white moon, the area with white roses blooming was fantastic.

"I'm going to carry out my pledge."

If you mouth it, Feather takes a breath.

"I'll have you meet Gilbert. Instead, promise to protect and obey me. If you break your word, death will come."

If you're ready, I'll give you my bracelet to take this.

This is the bracelet I duly took from Hilda's collection.

I thought it would be easier to remember the promise by leaving it in some form.

"... I swear I will protect you and obey you"

Feather takes the bracelet and attaches it, as though it's not intentional.

"Okay, now you're done with the contract!

"Is this all you got? I thought there was something more flashy."

Feather turns a frigid glance at me, laughing softly after a job.

"... the first stage meant. Wait here for a moment."

"Okay."

To my word, Feather obeys honestly.

"Ixis, what shall we do!?

"Know what? Let him do as much as cast a magical spell and perform it."

If you whisper for help, Ixis says that.

A magical spell?

But I haven't seen magic in this world yet.

I'm not sure I'd even try to imitate it.

Second, I remember my sophomore brother, who was separated from me.

Change the color of your eyes in contact, even though your eyes are not particularly bad.

Always my brother had a hard time translating, words that seemed meaningful and especially meaningless.

I didn't know he was going to be useful...

"You kept me waiting. Shall we get started?"

Let's cover one eye by imitating my brother and include it low.

Feather stood frightened and Ixis pulled a little.

This is pretty embarrassing.

But as a performance, it seems successful.

Nevertheless, does my brother always endure such a cold gaze?

That kid's gonna be mentally fat!

You have to abandon your shame here, me!

Get ready, put your hands together with Feather and dress like that.

"My name is Hilda Austin. Hear my voice, O ancient power, who awakens above the depths of the abyss. The incarnation of purgatory flames, the sound of the wind that never ceases to ring. Spirits of the Fountain of Blessing! Prove your vows to my new faithful servant, Feather!

Close your eyes, line up the words your brother normally uses, and screw them with dignity.

Is there any overlap between the depths of the abyss? You know, it's like purgatory flames. When you calm down and think about it, you lose.

I feel so ashamed, my connected hands are feverish.

"Hey fool! What are you doing!

If you think about it, scream like Ixis was in a hurry.

If I opened my eyes, something like a giant magic formation would have appeared at my and Feather's feet.

Water walls surround that large circle that emits light, and magical powers and thoughts occasionally blink in it as if it were current.

"Hmm!?

If you let go of the palms that were stacked with Feather in surprise, the water currents that were swirling around us will suck into the back of Feather's hand.

When it was all settled, a crest appeared on the back of Feather's hand.

The inscription on Claude's or Ixis's chest is different.

"What happened?

"You, what are you going to do with Feather as a demon..."

I shrugged and squeaked at me, holding my forehead like Ixis had a headache.
