I Reincarnated as a Villain of an RPG, But I Want to Survive

Chapter 37

Added personality

「Selen!? Selen, you okay!?」

「I’m fine! Rather, my condition is better than before!!」

　……n?

Oi Selen? What’s wrong?

She turned toward me, scratched the ground with her feet and kicked up……。

「Ei」

「Gugogabue!?」

A hug!?

No, a hug with such power!?

I tried to hold on, but it failed and I was blown off. I bounced off the ground 3 times and stopped after hitting the wall!

「Jira was blown off!?」

「Until now, he managed to hold on with his brother’s pride, and now it’s not enough!?」

「That is the power-up from the beast piece!?」

Guoooo……!?

It’s like all the gastric juice are coming out from my mouth?

The power of Selen’s hug is doubled……!?

「Amazing! My power has increased shockingly! Your Majesty the Emperor, thank you very much!」

Stop with that headmaster-ish way of talking!? (1)

「Immediate rampage, huh? That power, use it well for the empire from now on」

「Yes!!」

Everyone has their breath taken away

The power of Selen who has taken the Beast Piece has surely increased. Moreover, the difference is remarkable

The super rare item only given to the limited top chosen members of the empire

If they have that power……。

Lots of people are filled with expectation just by imagine about it

「Is Onii-chan okay?」

「I’m fine……！」

「Next time, I will adjust my strength」

What are you saying?

A brother should accept the sister’s serious hug!

With the dignity of a brother, I will accept the serious Selen at any time!

　……I also thought I would die someday

「Let’s move to the next one, Forte」

「Ha!」

The next one to be called is Forte

As usual, the curve from the waist to the buttocks is bewitching like a curve sword

「After Selentaura, you are the one who defeated the most number of competitors. Thus you are appointed as the fourth rank of the Twelve Apostles」

「No way!?」

The one who raised her voice is not Forte, but Saraka

The person who normally compete with Forte

「Please wait your Highness! I!? That means I lost to Forte!?」

「Saraka huh? You lost to Forte by just 1 person. You will be called at the fifth rank’s appointment so wait until then」

With just a difference of 1 person, Forte seems to have won against Saraka

Saraka couldn’t hide her shock

As for Forte, she surely has felt the victory. Although she’s holding back the joy, she couldn’t hide her smirk

「Now, come, it’s well-known that you two are rivals. But I have to grant 9 more Beast Pieces. Move quickl」

「Yes! Please pardon me!」

It can be said that Forte and Saraka’s rivalry has influenced the ranking

Because those two had a one-on-one fight at the latter half of the brawl, it’s certain that their kill score has dropped

With that, Selen has made a lead

They are holding each other’s legs. Being too conscious is also a problem, huh?

Forte has absorbed the beast piece

Similar to Selen, she was wrapped by an ominous light, the parts that grown from her body together with the increased power are ears and tail

「Lobos tribe, the hunter of the harsh grassland. For you who personally claimed to be descendants of the wolves, you are worthy of the beast power of the wolf itself. From now on, you can call yourself the faithful wolf of the empire, Ulforte」

「Haha!!」

The uncomfortable feeling when we first meet

Right now, Forte has become Ulforte of the Twelve Apostles, the premonition I had at our first meeting has become true

「Jira! How is it!?」

After the beast piece bestowal ritual has ended, Forte ran toward me

「Forte……No, I should call you Ulforte now, shouldn’t I?」

「You can call me whatever you like. I will accept no matter what kind of name you called me!」

O, oh, is that so……!?

「Other than that, it’s my appearance! After receiving the Beast Piece, I have become closer to the wolf our tribe has worshiped as the divine beast!」

「O, oh……!?」

Certainly, Forte has gained the power of the wolf after receiving the thick beast aura of the Beast Piece

In addition to that, the parts that resemble a wolf have been added to her appearance

「It’s the same as the horn growing on Selen, huh?」

The parts that appeared on Forte are wolf-like ears and a tail

However, rather than looking more brave……。

「It’s sly」

「What!?」

Rather, those are dog ears and dog tail, aren’t they?

It’s certain that girl with dog ears are cute

「Cute」

「Cute!? Wait a second, Jira! Even if it’s you, it’s too much! This is the increased power received from his Majesty the Emperor. Me, who will become the empire’s strongest warrior, should be overflowed with dreadful power!」

「No, you are cute」

「You are saying it again!?」

In addition to the dog ears, another beatification item has been added to Forte

The tail

Each time she was told “cute”, it waves, seemingly delighted

「A, anyway, the flattery like 『Cute』 should be told to the town girl! It’s not suitable for a warrior like me! Please don’t do it from now on!」

「I am sorry, I will never say it again」

「Eh? Never again?」

At that moment, Forte’s tail stopped waving, it drooped powerlessly

「to that extreme……never, again……!?」

「Forte is cute after all」

「Wafuaaaaa……!?」

Forte’s action was so cute so I vigorously stroked her head

I thought the skinship might be a bit too much, but when I check Forte’s dog ears and dog tail, they?

「Hey!? You broke the words you have spoken not long ago!? Moreover, why are you stroking my head!? I am a warrior so stop those act!」

While saying so, Forte’s tail waved so strong as if it would tear off

The dog-ification Forte is terrific

Because of the tail, she can’t hide her true feeling at all

If we interact with such absurd cuteness……。

「Hah, stop acting like idiots」

Saraka has arrived

「Welcome back, Saraka, You have received the beast piece too?」

「Yes! From now on, I am Sarakasar-sama, the fifth rank of the Twelve Apostles! Jira, show your respect and obey me!」

「Eh? Why?」

To the sudden master declaration, I can only be bewildered

「I have been called and granted the fifth rank, but you haven’t been called! In other words, your rank is lower than mine! It’s natural that the subordinate should obey the superior, right!?」

She is proud with that?

「Our promise from the beginning is effective! From today, you are mine! Work hard for me and Hanuma tribe!」

「Is that so, fifth rank?」

「Hmm!?」

The fourth rank Ulforte-san quietly approached the triumphant Saraka

「Certainly, you have a point, fifth rank. Ranking is important, isn’t it, fifth rank? The lower rank should be absolutely obedient to the higher one, right, fifth rank? This fourth rank Ulforte also approve of that, you know?」

「Annoying! Don’t act so almighty when our difference is only one!」

「Even if it’s just one rank, higher rank is still higher. Can a fifth rank use such a rude language toward the fourth rank? What do you think, Fifth rank?」

「Ugaaaaaaa!?」

Saraka tried to show off her power, but she was stopped by Forte’s overwhelming power harassment

A boss you can rely on

「Don’t be full of yourself! The Twelve Apostles’ ranks are not fixed! Depending on the merit, the ranking can be changed, it’s what his Majesty the Emperor has promised! I will overtake you immediately!」

「At that time, my rank will still be higher than you. Other than that……」

「n?」

「Saraka, your body didn’t change?」

I understand what Forte wants to say

Until now, when Selen and Forte absorbed the beast pieces, their outward appearance have changed

Horns or ears and tail

But, it doesn’t seem so in Saraka’s case

Her outward appearance is still the same as before

「Did you really receive the beast piece? Do you know what has changed from before?」

「I don’t know. Perhaps it also depends on the individual? But my power has surely increased. If you want, should we test it right here?」

「Even so……, maybe a short tail has grown?」

「Kyaaa!?」
