Reincarnated as the Hated Villainous Prince, I Thought I Could Live Freely in This Life, but Unconsciously Acted Like a Saint ~Trying to Create an Evil Kingdom, but for Some Reason I'm Highly Respected by Everyone~ - Chapter 18

“Fufufu… It was just a mere small fry.”

Looking down at the ogre that didn’t even twitch, I let out a daring smirk.

Even in my previous life when I was doing playthroughs, it was standard to level up in the “Elfria Forest Region” before diving into this cave.

Even though it’s weak, it provides a decent amount of experience points, making it a rather tasty opponent.

If there’s one thing that worries me…

“Rofemia, why are your eyes shining like that?”

Exactly.

Ever since defeating that small-fry ogre, Rofemia has been looking at me with eyes filled with even more respect and affection.

It’s almost as if she wouldn’t refuse even if I were to make an improper advance now.

“You’re truly amazing, truly amazing… To think you’d exterminate an ogre for us…”

“Huh? Was there something special about that small fry?”

“Ah, to even call it a small fry…”

She seems to be in agony, but did I say something weird?

This game has an incredibly detailed and vast world, so there’s stuff I don’t know about.

I had only thought of this ogre as an experience point small fry, but…

Well, it doesn’t matter.

The main goal of this cave isn’t such trash mobs, but the treasure chest located beyond where the ogre was defeated.

“Come on, let’s go. There’s an ultra-treasure waiting for us!”

“Yes!”

After that, Rofemia continued to cling to me (of course, her breasts also made contact), but of course, as someone who wants to build a harem, I didn’t refuse her. It was super hard to walk though!

Now.

The treasure chest in the deepest part of the Austria Cave, in the game, would contain weapons corresponding to the party members.

Which means, a sword for me and Mirua, and a staff for Rofemia.

In the game, these three items were placed there, but would it be the same here…?

“Oh, there are three treasure chests…?”

It seems that was the same in this world as well.

Ahead of where Mirua narrowed her eyes, there were three treasure chests placed at equal intervals, just like in the game.

“Fufu, go ahead and open them. They should contain weapons for you two.”

“Eh, really?”

Rofemia, with wide eyes, asked back.

Even she, the First Princess, doesn’t know about it, so probably no elf in this country knows about this either.

“Ah. Any chest is fine. Choose your favorite.”

“O-Okay! If the omniscient and omnipotent Esmeralda-sama says so, it must be true!”

Omniscient and omnipotent…?

I think that’s a bit of an exaggeration, but before I could protest, Mirua and Rofemia rushed to the chests.

Their breasts bounced spectacularly as they moved.

“Impossible, could this be the legendary sword Yggdrasil…!?”

“Amazing, mine is the magic staff, Lestard!”

Both of them exclaimed in excitement after opening their chests.

Neither item could be bought in stores; the legendary sword Yggdrasil has a cheat function that absorbs HP from the opponent at set intervals, and the magic staff Lestard simply adds a whopping two thousand to magical attack power.

(By the way, the staff Rofemia had been holding until now only added three hundred to magical attack power.)

And then.

“Come forth… Demon Sword.”

The treasure chest I opened contained my target item―the Demon Sword Levandest.

The added attack power was a staggering ten thousand.

It was one of the top-tier swords in terms of attack power within the game.

Of course, there was a drawback, such as being cursed to receive triple the damage.

Thus, ordinary player skills would not be anywhere near enough to wield it, but for someone like me who had played the game for three hundred rounds in my previous life, it was a different story.

Just like with that ogre earlier, what does it matter if attacks don’t hit me?

With my already soaring physical attack power from leveling up, combined with the power of the Demon Sword Levandest…

Kukkukku, it’s as if I’ve already got the world in my grasp.

There would be no one who could oppose me.

“Fufufu… Hahahah!”

Finding that excessively delightful, I couldn’t help but burst into loud laughter on the spot.
