Chapter 4: The Hidden Boss Is Getting Attached To Me

To release the angel girl Lushel, it was necessary to undo the tame state. Monsters captured with the tame skill were placed under complete control, both body and mind. Essentially, they would not disobey their master, but Lushel seemed to be special.

The fact that such a human-like Lushel could be tamed in the first place was somewhat surprising. In the game, she stood as a boss, so categorically, she was likely a monster. Even so, the reason she could not be controlled in mind was probably because she was a special existence.

“Hey, Gillium. Wake up. Release Lushel.”

“Ugh….Ouch….Ugh….”

“Damn, is he seriously injured? Can someone help heal him?”

Even though I did it myself, I thought the damage was quite severe. When I called out, my sister, Mireille-nee-chan, came over. The eldest daughter, Mireille, was characterized by her tricorn hat and long, light blue hair.

In the game, she was said to be the second strongest enemy after Alphys. Her specialty attribute was water, but she could also use healing magic. My sister smiled at me, exuding a seductive aura. And she brought her lips closer.

“Here, a kiss.”

“It’s not about the kiss.”

“We used to do it a lot in the past.”

“Forcibly, that is.”

Yes, this sister was an extreme brocon. Whenever she got the chance, she snuck into my bed and waited for me to come out of the bath. The moment I opened the door and left the room, she kissed me, he was like a random street thug.

Even though she was like that, she could be stronger than my eldest brother, so I couldn’t go against her. At least, there was no way I could win right now. Even in her normal state, the waves she emitted felt like they pierced the skin.

“You’re so shy. Then, a kiss on the cheek is fine, right?”

“Alright, just a peck.”

“Oh my! Alphys, you’re such a sweetheart!”

“Seriously, hurry up, please.”

++It’s unbearable, but if it makes her happy, it’s a small price to pay.++ Mireille-nee-chan cast a healing spell on Gillium, who was unable to get up.

“Ugh… Mireille-nii-san, thank… gah!”

“Let go of that child right now.”

Mireille-nee-chan mercilessly punched Gillium in the stomach. Even though he was healed, she injured him again.

“Uh, uh… Release…”

Gillium muttered while facing his palm toward Lushel. As soon as he did, Lushel fluttered her white wings and kicked Gillium.

“Guh!”

“You forcibly tamed me. I couldn’t resist while tamed, but now I can kill you.”

“Wait, Lushel. Even he is still family.”

“Yes, Alphys-sama!”

++What’s with this change in attitude? She was supposed to be an extremely annoying character.++ Flapping her wings, she came over to my side.

“Alphys-sama, thank you for fighting for me! You’re strong and kind, and I really like you!”

“I see, that’s good.”

“From now on, I pledge my loyalty to you, Alphys-sama. Please give me any command!”

“Then, work as my subordinate.”

“Subordinate? I’d even be your servant, no, even your girl if you’d like?”

++It doesn’t matter. Honestly, I don’t want to act superior, but right now, I am Alphys of the Balfont family. I have to act appropriately and not be underestimated. Besides, it seems fun to play the role of Alphys.++

“Damn it… for me to lose to Alphys… this must be a mistake!”

Gillium shouted in anger. He glared at me and then walked over briskly.

“Alphys, let’s fight again! You only managed to use dark magic and waves by chance!”

“There’s no way you could pull something like that off by chance. It’s disgraceful.”

“If I’d known, I could have taken measures! There won’t be a next time!”

“What benefit do I have in fighting you again? What do I gain out of it?”

++Of course, if your opponent’s moves, you can take measures. It’s the same as a game. But if you’re told that in a match where you should have killed someone, it’s going to be annoying. It’s the same as in the game. But being told that in a fight where I could have killed him is irritating. Dealing with his complaints would be troublesome. In that case——++

“That’s enough.”

Leorg, who had been silent up until now, spoke up. At that moment, everyone felt as if they were frozen and unable to move. Leorg’s body was emitting waves. The waves emanating from Leorg’s body were fear. His waves had the troublesome characteristic of binding the instincts of living beings.

“Gillium, Alphys is right. You lost the duel just now.”

“But, Father, I didn’t know Alphys had such hidden skills…”

“The same goes for Alphys. He didn’t know what you had up your sleeve.”

“B-but!”

Just as Gillium was about to offer up his next excuse, his body stiffened and he began to tremble. Receiving Leorg’s waves, he couldn’t move and began to shed tears.

++It’s not wise to defy him, Gillium. I might become stronger than him in the future, but right now, he is the strongest man no one can defeat.++

“Your family name is Balfont. Do not disappoint me further.”

“Y-y-yes…”

After Gillium fell flat on his butt, liquid spread across the floor. He pissed himself. ++No wonder. I never thought he’d be such a pathetic guy. ++

Leorg stood in front of me. With his huge body looking down at me, it was quite intimidating. ++As expected of the future World King.++

“I have high hopes for you, Alphys.”

“Yes.”

When I answered honestly, Leorg smiled with satisfaction. He was likely counting on me to play a useful role as his pawn, but, depending on the circumstances, I might end up defeating him as well. After all, I knew all of his strategies to defeat him, even down to his waves and magic. I aimed to surpass him and become the strongest.
