"N/N, don't you think this dress looks good on you? Let's get it."
A few days had passed since the encounter with the heroine. I can tell the plot is messed up now... I wasn't supposed to meet her so early on.
Besides that, the villainess seems to be different from the one in the story...
"N/N? You there?"
"Ah, yes... What were you saying...?"
The young noble I'm serving is nothing like the cold and stoic villainess in the story... has something gone wrong somewhere?
"Jeez... you're spacing out an awful lot today. I was just saying that this dress suited you."
She said pointing to a stunning dress in the high class shop we were in. Back in my original world, this kind of shop would only be fit for those filthy rich millionaires, but to see a young girl casually strolling around with her servants, picking out a pile of extravagant clothes and stacking them on the counter was quite the shock...
Needless to say, in the past 8 years of my life in this world, I've already gotten used to the wealthy people surrounding me... I glanced at the price tag of the dress she picked out....
Safe to say, there's no way we're getting that.
A few hours later, we finally exited the shop with way too many shopping bags... All of a sudden, I sense something odd.
[Host, there is a new tutorial quest available. Requirements: Prevent the assassination of the villainess. Rewards: Unlock Gacha System + 10 pulls
Countdown starting: 10 minutes.]
Assassination-
I turned back to see a dagger flying straight at me. Ah. I'm screwed aren't I?
"Shitty system- You couldn't tell me sooner?!"
I dodged to the side, narrowly escaping the dagger. The villainess was shocked too. Rushing over to my side, she noticed a small scratch caused by the dagger.
"Elise, are you alri-"
Her eyes went red. I mean, they were already red but... she didn't look like the adorable and innocent young lady I was familiar with.
"Sighhhhh... I was hoping to finish the job fast." I suddenly remember that she existed. The assassin who I'm supposed to stop... she pulls down her hood and-
.
.
.
Oh shit. She's hot.
The assassin in front of us was an elf lady. A really pretty one at that. It'd honestly be a pity to kill her...
Almost as if reading my mind, Elise turned to me and shot me a glare.
Don't look at me... I'm not the one who threw the dagger...
Wait, I don't necessarily have to kill her, right...? I'm only supposed to prevent her from assassinating the villainess for...
[Countdown: 7 minutes 24 seconds]
Right. I quickly get up.
"Who are you and what are you trying to do?"
Of course, I already know she was sent here to kill both me and the villainess, but I still have to put on an act... I draw my sword and get ready to take on her attacks.
[Countdown: 6 minutes 54 seconds]
She summons a fire ball. But... it's black in colour?
She fires her shot, as someone without magic, I can't defend against that...
Another fireball clashes into the dark fireball. The villainess? I almost forgot about her...
Elise chuckles darkly from behind me, she slowly takes a step towards the assassin.
One step.
Another step.
"I don't care who you are... or what you do.. but since you dared attack my personal servant..."
Her fireball gets larger and larger... hold on- is she supposed to be this powerful already?!
"Don't blame me for not holding back..."
She shoots and she scores- hold on!! Don't kill her!!
[Countdown: 2 minutes 18 seconds]
I rush towards the villainess.
It's too late.
"Oh? This seems interesting... mind if I join in?"
I spot a familiar looking blonde prince not too far away. He extinguishes the two fireballs with ease... and he smirks.
I think that was the only moment I was ever thankful he existed.
"What's going on-"
Oh, great. The entire main cast is here.
