The Villainess Wants to Marry a Commoner!!

The necklace undead were getting up and shuffling around. Even if I release purification magic, it’s like giving an MP boost to the pig masks, so I can’t use magic. Even if I try to activate purification magic with a targeted effect like ‘purify the undead wearing a necklace’ like before, the aftermath is likely to go to the pig masks.

When I was thinking about it, the necklace undead activated magic all at once. For some reason, it’s all directed at me. Why!! Why? It’s much better than Alice-chan being targeted though!!

I avoided the magic attacks of the necklace undead and ran up the wall with three-dimensional maneuvering skills. As if chasing me, attack magic landed on the wall one after another. I avoided the exploding attack magic and ran around the underground space while fighting with the approaching tall pig mask man. It’s almost like an air battle.

While fighting, the magic attacks emitted by the necklace undead were falling and also hitting the tall man, but he isn’t affected. The pig mask seems to be giving him an advantage from the friendly fire of his allies.
That item is really troublesome!!

The pig mask that was attacking me relentlessly is a tall man.
Hmm? What are the other pig masks doing? I wonder if Alice-chan is dealing with them? The tall man is strong, and if I take my eyes off him it will be fatal, so I can’t check on Alice-chan, but is she safe?

“Alice-chan!! Are you okay?”

I called out to Alice-chan without looking away from the tall pig mask man. Then, unlike before, Alice-chan’s gentle voice seemed to have regained her composure.

“Yes Bella-chan. I’m fine somehow. Well. . . Destroy!!”

With Alice-chan’s shout, there was an explosion from below. Apparently, she slipped [Land Mines] under the feet of the undead who were obsessed with attacking me and blew them up. At the same time, the attack magic that was falling on me decreased. Apparently, the undead group dropped out.

The ones left after Alice-chan’s attack are probably only the five people wearing pig masks, including the skilled tall man. The magic attack against the undead works, but the magic attacks against the pig masks won’t work, and the MP is taken. That’s why Alice-chan can’t use bombing magic to attack anymore.

I wonder. . . if I’m in a pinch. Normally. . .

But we have this.

“Alice-chan!! Pass!!”

I threw the items that I got out of the [Closet] to Alice-chan. If the magic attack doesn’t work, it’s a physical attack.

Alice-chan who caught the items, raised a voice of joy.

“Wow!! Bella-chan!! Can I use this now? I’m so happy!!”

What I took out is the nostalgic bombing item [Bombing Bullet]. However, unlike the ones when we defeated the worm, this is what Ursch-kun created and modified. We knew in advance that the enemy had a pig mask and its effect. There is no reason not to deal with it. According to Ursch-kun, whether we win or lose is about how much information we have about the enemy and how well we prepared.

The conventional bombing item was a ‘magic item’ that was given bombing magic. That doesn’t work against pig masks. That’s why Ursch-kun created a new one. . . Magic items have been the mainstream until now, and scientific weapons have not been created in this world. . . Yes, it is a type of bombing item that does not use magic. To be honest, even though the cost is higher than magic items, the power is almost the same as magic items. It’s a pity that it’s slightly lower. But this is indispensable for this battle, so Ursch-kun created a lot. Moreover, just before this operation,

“Destroy”

Alice-chan immediately threw all the bombing items into the underground space.

It was sprinkled with a very happy smile. If the thing that was thrown was not a bombing item, it would have been a very nice and happy sight. The sight of her throwing the wonderful bombing item looked like slow motion to me.

. . . . Alice-chan, you haven’t been given permission yet?!

When I hurriedly dodged the attack of the tall pig mask man, I turned around and collected Alice-chan. I jumped out of the underground space while holding Alice-chan in a princess carry and rolled into the underground passage. At the same time, Ursch-kun blocked the entrance and exit with a defensive wall.

Immediately after that, the bombing items that had been thrown though the air landed on the ground. Scientific bombs exploded one after another due to the impact of landing. Through the defensive wall, a roar and shockwaves shook the air.

And I forgot to mention it earlier because of Alice-chan, but for this operation, I added a flashing effect just before the bombing item exploded.

On the other side of the defensive wall, the three of us ran through the corridor toward the exit with the flash overflowing from the underground space. While running through, Alice-chan said in a high voice.

“Destroy!!”

Actually, the shout of ‘Destroy’ when Alice-chan blew up the item earlier was to expand the magic circle of bombing magic. And the current shout is to activate a golden magic circle that has been deployed on the ceiling of the underground space that was placed during the flash of the bombing items.

Alice-chan’s signal activated the magic circle, and violent vibrations hit the underground passage where we were running. By now, the ceiling part of the underground space probably collapsed, and on the ground, the abandoned factory will collapse due to ground subsidence.

Look, I told you, right? If you use bombing magic to destroy the ceiling, it’s not attack magic, it’s a physical attack.
The pig mask accumulated MP, so they should be able to use quite powerful body strengthening magic and defensive magic. That’s why I was worried if we could defeat them with just bombing items. That’s why it’s a two-stage strategy of collapsing the ceiling and a scientific weapon, and even if that doesn’t defeat them, it will at least deplete the MP that they’re accumulating, or destroy the pig masks. . .
It seems that the pig masks have a magic nucleus at the top of their heads. I would be happy if the falling ceiling gave a critical hit to the magic core.

Well, I’m glad that the area above the underground space is not a residential area, but an abandoned factory. . .
Even if it was a residential area, due to the stagnant miasma coming from the magic that was repeatedly done underground, it may have become a meaningless property like the factory above, and it may have been ruined. . .

Alice-chan, who was scattering bombing items (magic items) while running through the long underground passage, raised her voice while looking ahead of us.

“Bella-chan!! We’ll be at the exit soon.”

At the exit of the underground passage, Chris-sama, who had escaped first with the captives, was standing with a light and waving his hand.

Out of the five people who were held captive, Chris-sama woke up Geese and Brian while the visibility was bad due to the dirt and smoke that was soaring when we invaded, and they escaped using [Optical Camouflage] while [Bomb Bullet] exploded out of Alice-chan’s [Floating Bomb].

When she finally returned above ground and joined Chris-sama, Alice-chan activated the bombing items with a smile.

“Fufufu. . . Destroy”

While making a loud sound, the underground passage collapsed and was completely blocked. After I confirmed that, I turned to Chris-sama.

“Well. . . Chris-sama. What about the people in the pig masks? Can you check it?”

“. . . . There are only two people I can read right now. . . . But I can hear the heartbeat of three people. . . . Three people are alive. . . and it looks like they are coming up to the ground. . .”

It looks like two people dropped out, but they may have had inferior [Anti-Soul Necklace]. If they’re undead, they won’t be beaten and they won’t get caught by Chris-sama’s radar, so don’t let your guard down.

“Hmm. . . We couldn’t finish it with the previous explosion? That’s too bad.”

Alice-chan seemed dissatisfied, but if she was able destroy the magic nucleus of the pig masks, it would be a success. It would be good.

“It’s troublesome if they can escape. . . I’ll immediately confine those who come above ground to the place where the abandoned factory was. Are you ready? Why don’t you check right away if there is anything that needs to be exchanged?”

At Ursch-kun’s words, we checked all of the equipment and exchanged what needed to be replaced with new ones.

Come to think of it, the dresses Alice-chan and I were wearing got tattered.
I’m was wearing a comfortable dress that looked like it belonged to a wealthy commoner for the decoy investigation, but Alice-chan was having a tea party with Chris-sama, the second prince, at the royal palace, so it’s a dress that looks very expensive and a little hard to move in. Both dresses are torn to pieces because of repeated fighting and bombing, and it looks like zombie princess cosplay.

But I didn’t bring a change of clothes. . . Hmm? A change of clothes?

There is, if I want to change clothes, there are a lot of normal dresses from the Game Lotto in the [Closet]. Why don’t I choose a dress that is combat friendly and easy to move in from among them?

“Alice-chan, as expected, our dresses are tattered, and it’s going to be a battle on the ground wider than the underground space, so why don’t we change into clothes that are easy to move in?”

“But Bella-chan. I didn’t bring a change of clothes.”

“It’s okay, I have it. Ufufu, so please leave the whole body coordination to me!!”

Of course they didn’t all die. That would have been too easy. Why can’t the bad guys ever just die easily?

I hope you enjoyed this chapter and thank you for reading!
