The Villainess That Was Once A VRMMO player

nd defensive measures all over again.

 

There was still some distance to the Daemon’s village, so I thought I would ride back on Pochi’s back.

 

[What… you want all of them to ride on my back?] 

 

“It’s okay.
Pochi is a strong and cool dragon, so even if a hundred people ride you, you’ll be fine.”

 

 [Mm-hmm.
Indeed, I am strong and cool.] 

 

He was originally an NEET dragon, so it was important to praise him moderately when trying to make him work.

 

We rode Pochi to reach the Daemon’s village.
However, when I tried to get them all to ride on Pochis’s back, Maia and the others seemed afraid.
Meiya and Maia ended up clinging to me with their eyes closed.
But Danny, the male, was clinging to Bert-san.

 

I didn’t realize it because we always came and went using [Space Transition], but it was quite a long trip.

 

“We can see it.”

 

“Woooah…”

 

Maia, who was clinging to me, opened her thin eyes and let out an amazed sigh at the city stretching out into the forest in the distance.
…It really was a [city], huh? I had not seen it from above for a long time, but didn’t it spread out considerably?

There are now several thousand people in what was once a village of a few hundred….

 

Surely, this could not have been helped if the humans found it.

 

When Pochi went down the plaza, the Daemons, who noticed us, greeted us with cheers.

 

It was a terrible battle, but seeing everyone so happy like this, I could honestly say that I was glad to have been able to protect them.

 

But–

 

*Zazazazazaza!!!

 

“…Eh.”

 

The moment I landed, the smiling faces of Daemons and the others twitched and fell flat all at once.

 

What’s going on? I was thinking when a blue-faced elder jumped out from among the prostrate Daemons.

 

“Carol-sama, please calm down.”

 

“…Ah.”

 

Speaking of which, I was still releasing my pressure.
I had forgotten about it because the high-level (or dull) Pochi and Bert-san were acting normal.

 

“Also, there is someone here who would like to have an audience with Carol-sama…”

 

“Who…?”

 

Someone who would come to visit me in the village of Daemons? Could it be a Bert-san class adventurer?

 

“So where are they?”

 

“Well…”

 

I asked the elder to show me the way, and followed his blue-faced gaze to a corner of the front row of prostrate people in heavy armor.

 

…I quickly turned off my pressure.
