Villager A Wants to Save the Villainess no Matter What!
Chapter 12

"Hmm… I don't think this is working, Allen."

"God, please. I didn't think it was this bad."

Jerome was curled up in the corner fiddling with his claws. I wanted to tell him 'If you have the time to be lazing around like that, why don't you just try harder?' but stopped myself at the last second.

"Well, Allen, do you have any other plans?"

"The straightforward way to do it would be to just dress up and talk to them properly."

"Oh, err… Umm… H-h-how do I do that..?"

"How would I know? How would a human know what a wyvern should wear? Well, anyway, normally if you were a human, a necktie would be good with anything."

"A necktie..?"

"Hmm, Let's give it a go anyway."

I measured Jerome's body and decided to use my 【Alchemy】 skill to create a large white tie.

I drew a magic circle on the ground and visualized a clear image in my head. If you have a clear image of what you want to do, the skill will guide you on how to finish it.

Then I put the Hornrabbit magic stone in the center of the magic circle.

"Refine!"

I could feel my magic power get drained into the magic stone. The magic circle flashed, and a large white tie appeared wrapped around Jerome's neck.

The process left me completely exhausted and I fell to the ground panting.

"W-well, I guess it's something like this?"

"Oh, oh, thank you!"

Jerome was so moved that he tried to shake hands, but I hurriedly avoided it.

"You idiot! If you do that, I'll be crushed!"

"Oh! Uh. S-sorry."

"It's fine. Well, look at that. You're starting to look really coo―"

"KYAAAA"

We heard what seemed like Melissa's screams from the distance.

Jerome runs out of the room in a hurry.

While being carried by god, we quickly follow after him.

In the sky above Jerome, there was Melissa surrounded by about 30 Wyverns.

"Wh-who the hell are you guys!?"

Jerome tried calling out.

"Grrrrrr"

The wyverns around him just growled and ignored him.

"It seems the wyverns around him are too young to speak. They seem to want to vent their young

male libidos…"

Before I could ask about the situation, god answered me ahead,

They're like beasts. Attacking a single girl with a group!

"Get away from Melissa!"

Jerome charges at the wyverns that have gathered around Melissa and tries to shake them off one by one.

Despite being outnumbered 1 to 30, Jerome was trying his best to beat the wyverns.

"I won't allow anyone to hurt Melissa!"

And so Jerome tried to bite down on another wyvern even when he started to droop down from the sky and was covered in wounds, he fought to protect Melissa.

Meanwhile Melissa was there, her eyes glued onto Jerome's figure.

Eventually, after barely fending off the wyverns, Jerome finally fell to the ground listless.

With his body slamming onto the ground, a loud thud resounded out and dust rose to the air.

"God!"

"Yeah. Let's go."

And so god lifted me onto the collapsed Jerome's side.

"Jerome!"

Gradually, the dust cloud cleared. There, was the sight of Melissa supporting Jerome from under him.

"Ugh… Huh? Me?"

I could hear Jerome's voice

"Jerome, You're okay!"

"Allen? I guess so… Huh!? Me-Me-Me-Melissa!?"

Jerome, realizing that he was on top of Melissa, turned red and tried to jump away.

But Melissa caught him with her tail, and wouldn't let it happen.

"So your name is Jerome. Thanks for saving me. You know, you were kinda cool back there."

Melissa lifts her head as she says this and gently kisses Jerome's cheek.

Oh huh. It seems like I just completed God's request.

I didn't do anything, though!?

****

"All right, then I will give you my blessing, Mr. Allen, as I promised."

As he said this, God put his hand on my head and I felt as if something had entered my body.

"It is done. I'll give Jerome and Melissa a blessing when the time is right for them to get married. I hope to see you again then."

With that, god disappeared in a scatter of light, and with him gone, there was no『Book of the Wind God』left behind.

"Ah, ah, um. A-Allen. Thank you so much!"

"No, I really didn't do anything. It was all because of your hard work, Jerome."

"B-but, I don't think I could have gotten the courage to do it if it weren't for you!"

"Like I said, It's fine. Oh, wait. How about this, 4 years from now, in the summer, I want you to take a trip away from here. There might be something bad that'll happen to you."

"Huh? Oh, well, if you say so…"

"Fufu. So, your name was Allen? I also want to thank you. For before, and for this cloth you gave Jerry for his wedding dress."

"No problem."

Apparently, Melissa already had a nickname for Jerome.

"So, when you really need our help, just once, We'll help you no matter what. How's that for our thanks?"

'Hmm, yeah, I'll help you Allen!"

"I think that's a pretty great deal! Thanks a lot!"

"Jerome, you better not make Melissa cry, alright?"

"A-ah, th-that's."

"Come on, say it straight!"

Melissa smacked Jerome's head with her tail. She may have thought she was tapping him lightly, but the heavy thud made him shudder.

"I-I know. I will! Ah, Allen. Thank you! And see you later!"

"Yeah, I'll see you later!"

After this strange experience, I set out to go back to the village of Frissen.

By the way, Jerome also gave me the extra magical stones that he got from the other wyvern's corpse. What a deal.
