I was reincarnated as the son of the worst villain

“Go for it, Master Alfred the hero!"

'You pervert aristocrat Grace, you've got to go for it!"

'Go, go, go, Alfredoooo! Go, go, go, go, Alfredoooooo!”

　The square was filled with galleries, except for the space in the center where Grace and I would fight.

　There were probably several hundred people gathered. How is it that so many people have gathered here?

　Well, I ordered the secretary's group to prepare these galleries and cheering groups for me.

"Good luck, Master Grace!"

　In the midst of all this, Princess Elise's cheering voice flies to Grace.

　I can't help but click my tongue.

My future queen is cheering for a villainous mob. ......

　I whisper so that others don't hear me.

　The duel was also reported to the royal court so that the princess Elise would be able to come to the scene.

　This event is different from the original one.

　Originally, I was supposed to walk in on Grace as he was molesting a woman in town, and I was supposed to accuse him of it, leading to a fight.

　However, because Grace was a reincarnated person, he did not engage in molestation.

　I could have predicted this development, so I made up a story that he was obstructing the business of a hero and brought it to this duel.

'The duel between Alfred the hero and Grace, the duke's son, will now begin!　There will be no rules in the battle, and the loser will follow the winner!”

　The referee, who is making me hold the money, announces the start of the duel.

　This duel, the way it's going to unfold, is all according to my plan.

　Then, Grace came to the dueling arena with a stupid look on his face, not knowing what to expect.

　Ah, what a way to get into the fire.

　I'm well trained and equipped.

　Let's give things a light hit!

"Let the ---- begin!"

　The referee signaled the start of the battle.

 

　Grace raises her black sword and brings it down.

　Keeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee!

　Swords and blades sparkle, making a metallic sound, and they enter a state of brinksmanship.

　Hmph!

　It's an obvious attack!

　It's a visible attack, but isn't ............ it kind of heavy?

"Whoa!"

 

　Grace pushes his sword forward, causing him to be flung backward.

 

　Don't tell me I'm overpowered?

　Funny, my current level is 58.

　I'm at 58, and at this early stage of the game it should be impossible to get to that level solo.

　According to the report, Grace should have been working solo. ......

　Okay, I get it!

　He's got a strong skill set.

　That explains it.

　So I guess I need to be careful with the power.

　But if it's just about power, he's just a fool.

　I'll show him what I'm capable of!

“Step of the wind!”

　In an instant, I'm behind Grace.

　With wind at his feet, he dramatically increased his speed of movement and evasion.

 

　The crowd shouts in admiration as I suddenly appear behind Grace.

'Oraaaa!”

 

　I swipe my sword sideways and--

　Gracie cockily blocked the attack.

　A lucky shot by the big boy!

'...... is a very slow attack. Is that all you've got?"

"Huh?!"

　Grace said something I didn't expect.

　What do you call a slow attack?

　What the heck are you getting worked up about, you who just happened to prevent it by a fluke!

　He launches a series of Wind Steps.

　I move around Grace in every direction.

'I can see Master Alfred .......?

"I can't believe it. I can't believe people can move around that fast!”

　The audience already couldn't follow my figure with their eyes.

　Grace didn't even move and didn't seem to be following my speed at all.

A slow attack, huh?　Then how about this!

　I swung my sword down from Grace's blind spot.

　I did it!

　---- But Grace, whom I should have struck down, had vanished before my eyes.

'Huh!　Where the hell did he go!'

'Over here!'

'Ha!'

　I turned around to look backward where I heard the voice.

　As soon as I turned around to face Grace, I was hit with a powerful front kick to the abdomen.

'Guuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuu!!!'"

　I can't ...... breathe.

　Tears welled up in my eyes from the pain and shock.

'Guh!”

　Finally, I can catch my breath.

　Grace has a look of composure on his face as he thumps his sword on his shoulder.

　This bastard .......

'Don't let a lucky shot get the better of you!”

　The sword is swung at him, but Grace ducks and dodges.

'He's just a little too fast for me.'

"Gracie is so cool!”

 

　Oh, shit, oh, shit, oh, shit, oh, shit, oh, shit!

　I, the brave hero, am a mob villain!

　Wait a minute. This guy ...... doesn't tell me he's getting spatial skills too?

　But don't non-heroic characters get more than one unique skill?

　I thought the villainous orderly had a fixed unique copy skill.

　...... maybe the rigid system is not unique?

 

　Oh well, once I know the trick, I can countermeasure.

　I'm going to be very careful around here.

"No light!"

　This is the ability to track enemies even in the dark.

　The moment I move, I'm going to punish him!

　Then Grace smiles.

　What the hell is he laughing at?

　I'm about to become enraged again, but I manage to suppress it.

"What?!"

　I notice that fresh blood is spurting out from under my right shoulder.

　Ouch!

　I was attacked!

　When?　How?

　I'm not detecting anything with my mindless sensing, okay?

"The blessing of compassion!”

　Heal the wound immediately with your recovery skill.

　A wound like this will heal in no time.

　What's more, this skill's effect lasts throughout the battle.

　I, the strongest and bravest hero in the story, don't have any blind spots, you know!

　But how in the world can a sword purchased at a third-rate equipment store cut through my armor?

　It's made of fine mithril and is the highest quality armor I spent 350 million, the equivalent of 35 white gold coins!

“Hey, what's with the sword?”

“What? It's the sword I got from that third-rate equipment store you've been making fun of.”

Y'ou're lying!　How can such a scum shopkeeper make such a quality sword?'

'No, he actually made it, so it can't be helped, can it?'

　Grace answered while scratching his head.

　...... This guy is a total jerk.　
　
The plan was to have him crawling on the ground right now and licking my feet,.......

　I was getting pissed off thinking about it.

 

[Don't you dare, you mob mooks, get carried away!　Who the hell do you think you're dealing with?　I'm a hero![

"You're a hero. ............ Well, if there's a level difference of more than 30, no matter how heroic you are, you're just like a little baby.'

'What?　What are you talking about?"

'You're level 58, right? I'm level 92."

"What?!"

　He exclaims. Level 92!

　How is that possible in the beginning of the game?

　But that would explain his power and speed in the battle so far. ......

 

'What the hell?'

　I noticed that Grace had also come to the side in an instant.
