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 28

That night, I slept in a guest room at the Royal Castle, as recommended by Queen Clophe.

Since I was to hold a position higher than the queen, she had said a more luxurious room should be provided.

But of course, a room “above the queen’s” couldn’t be prepared on such short notice…

Instead, they offered me the best “food,” “bath,” and “service,” asking me to stay in the guest room for now.

As a villainous prince, of course, I shouldn’t have agreed. I should have made the elves work like slaves and immediately start constructing a room just for me.

That would have been a truly villainous prince-like behavior.

But if I suddenly displayed tyrannical tendencies, the people wouldn’t follow me.

Initially, to ensure loyalty, it’s crucial to showcase kindness.

In that sense, I rejected their offer of the best “food,” “bath,” and “service.”

Mirua and Rofemia seemed dazzled by the response, but it seems they haven’t realized yet.

The truly terrifying conspiracy that the villainous prince, Esmeralda, harbors in his heart.

However… well… today was genuinely exhausting.

I was planning to dive into the fluffy bed and recuperate from the day’s fatigue when―

Rustle, rustle.

“Huh…?”

I suddenly felt like someone was inside the blanket, which woke me up.

“What the…?”

Rubbing my sleepy eyes and lifting the blanket, I found Rofemia there.

And due to wearing her nightgown, her chest exposure was incredibly high.

Indeed, Rofemia’s breasts are very BIG!

…Wait, hold on.

I was trying to create an image of a noble prince, and this would ruin it all.

“What are you doing here, Rofemia?”

“Hehe, this is the ‘service’ my mother mentioned…”

Woah…!

Straddling me with so much of her skin exposed that I could feel the incredibly soft sensation even through her nightgown.

“I know you said you didn’t want it, Esmeralda-sama, but I thought this might be the best way to relieve the fatigue from fighting…♡”

“What did you say…?”

Yeah, I completely understand.

I truly believe that breasts can save the world.

So honestly, I wanted to let my holy sword Excalibur rise immediately…

But that would go against my villainous aesthetics.

To be calm and composed even in desperate situations…

Ugh, it’s so difficult to practice what is easily said!

“Fufu… Rofemia.”

Somehow managing to summon my reasoning, I gently pushed Rofemia’s shoulders away.

“I appreciate your thoughtfulness, but our… relationship shouldn’t be so rushed. We’re not like that, right?”

“E-Esmeralda-sama…”

My lame excuse made Rofemia blush and daze.

“Our true bond should wait until we’ve defeated Yurisia and brought true peace to the Elf Kingdom. Isn’t that right?”

“Yes…! As you say…!”

“If you understand, then step back. For us both.”

“Yes!”

Rofemia, with hearts in her eyes, slowly moved away from me.

“I’ve learned! If we defeat Yurisia, I can climb the adult stairs with Esmeralda-sama! You said so!”

“Huh? Oh, yeah…”

What?

Why emphasize that now?

“…I’m a bit disappointed, but you’re right, Esmeralda-sama. I’ll do my best…!!”

Saying so and bowing, Rofemia covered the exposed parts of her skin and left the guest room.

…Ah, I really wanted to touch those breasts.

Treading the path of a true villain proved to be harsher than I expected.
