Rogue Prince – Chapter 102

“I-I am Lisette Josephine de Capetien, the First Princess of the Capetien Kingdom! I shall clean up after my brother’s mess!”

Behind me, Lisette, the main heroine of this Scenario, declared loudly… no, haughtily.

“N-No, no!? What are you doing! Please, hurry and escape!”
“Escape? Prince Harold, don’t say foolish things. There’s no way I would show my back to a slightly overgrown bat with horns, is there?”

Lisette covered her mouth with the back of her hand and chuckled at me as I turned around and shouted.
Ugh, I’m not asking for a Villainess move at a time like this! And besides, ‘slightly overgrown’? It’s clearly close to ten meters tall, you know? …Wait!?

“GOOOOOOOOOOAAAAAAAHHHHHHHHHHHHH!”
“Tch!”

I hurriedly defended against the fireball aimed at Lisette, not me.
Oh geez, what can I do…

“Princess Lisette! I can’t protect you if you stay there! Together with Monica, quickly get behind me!”
“! Understood… Kyaaaaaaaa!?”
“Leave it to me.”

Monica grabbed Lisette and quickly hid behind me.
As expected of my Personal Maid. If only she didn’t have that habit of teasing, she’d be super competent.

“And, where is Princess Eline?”
“Please be assured. She has safely completed her evacuation. We are the only ones present here.”

Alright, now I can defeat Jean… no, the Gargoyle, without holding back… but.

“Um… Princess Lisette. It’s likely that saving Prince Jean is no longer…”
“Your unnecessary concern is unneeded. From the start, there was nothing like familial affection between my brother and I. There’s no need to hesitate.”

Lisette answered, smiling sadly.
Whether it was because Jean couldn’t be saved, or regret for saying ‘there is nothing like familial affection’, I couldn’t tell.

But… all I can do is end this battle quickly, so that Lisette doesn’t have to be sad, even a little.

“Sandra! Caz! Monica! And… Princess Lisette! Let’s defeat that Demon Beast together!”
“Yes!”
“Yeah!”
“Leave it to me.”
“Ohohoho! Of course!”

Even so, what I have to do doesn’t change, so I’ll use the Jet-Black Shield Caspary to defend against the Gargoyle’s attacks, and just move forward single-mindedly.
But, if I can protect this Precious Thing by doing that, it’s the best role.

“Fufu… to be protected by Lord Hal’s back, it’s so delightful, so blissful…”
“Leave it to me. From now on, I will continue to protect you forever.”
“Yes. I am truly happy to be your fiancée…”

Hearing Sandra’s genuinely happy voice, I become even more motivated.
That’s right. Just having her here allows me to do anything, and I can work hard endlessly.

Even if only a bad end is prepared for Harold.
Even so, for the sake of happiness with her, I will overcome even that.

“!?”
“We’ve arrived.”

Breaking through the barrage of fireballs, we finally reached the Gargoyle’s feet.
After this… we’ll just trample it.

“Everyone… gooooooooooooooooooooo!”
“Yes!”
“Leave it to me.”
“Me too! Snatch!”

In response to my voice, Sandra and Monica jumped out from the left and right, and the Calamity Beast Caspary’s huge claw phantoms attacked the Gargoyle.
Ahaha, now that we’ve gotten this close, we’ll just unilaterally attack before it can even unleash its skills.

“!? GUAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAHHHHHHHHHHHHH!?”

Torn apart by Sandra’s Balmung, Monica’s Dagger Knife mercilessly struck its vitals, and Caz’s claws heartlessly gouged it.
The Gargoyle could only scream helplessly.

“A-Absolutely overwhelming…”
“Yes. But… this is my Precious Thing.”

I proudly nodded at Lisette, who muttered at the sight of the spectacle.
How about it, everyone is amazing, right? Even if you’re not a heroine from EnHaza, even if you’re a Mob who doesn’t even have a name, even if you don’t have a UR weapon, even if you’re an existence below a stepping stone, we won’t lose to anyone.

Even if it’s the protagonist or the Last Boss.

And then.

“Ga… gu… o… o…”

The Gargoyle, its entire body ravaged beyond recognition, collapsed to the ground, spilling lava-like, burning blood, and fell silent.
