I’ve been reborn as a villainous lord, so I’m going to defeat the mastermind with a group of characters who are good at just one skill

Hearing about a huge explosion in the territory, Kurt went to the scene.

　There he found a destroyed hut, an unconscious butler and a group of men he did not identify.

　However, Kurt knew these men.

　No, to be precise, he did not know even their names, but they were the same men who appeared in the original story as the small fry enemies, "Bandit Stupid A," "Bandit Stupid B," and "Bandit Chief.

　Once again, he confirmed that even enemy characters from the original story were living in this world.

For the time being, lets capture them.

　Even though they are unconscious, they are still bandits.

　There was no reason not to capture them here.

　The chief butler, who is thought to have been in conspiracy with them, is also to be caught.

　However, Kurt was unwilling to have the chief butler's wrongdoings discovered at this point.

--If it were true, I would have wanted all the people who were taking out the middleman to join forces and attack me.

　It would have been too much, but he really wanted to find at least a few of them.

　If word spread among the servants that one had been caught, fewer would be willing to take action.

　The reason for this is that the number of people who are willing to take action is decreasing when news of one of the servants being caught spreads among the servants, especially when it is the head butler who is in charge of the servants.

But why was he passed out in this place?　And the hut was blown ...... up."

　Kurt's face paled as he had a bad feeling about this.

You don't think so, do you?　I can't believe that that saint is here in this territory. ......

　A walking disaster.

　If it explodes, it can be cured.

　Beautiful fireworks and dirty fireworks explode alike.

　Irma Anker, the saint who is a bombshell, with famous quotes such as the one below.

　Though she loves alchemy very much, she was chosen to be a saint.

　She can use magic of almost all elements, but most of them are only at the beginner level.

　However, when it comes to holy magic, she is one of the five most talented in the country, and deserves the title of saint.

　The problem is that she is still trying to become an alchemist even after becoming an apprentice saint without trying to show her exceptional abilities.

　Unfortunately, she has no talent in that direction and usually makes explosions.

　Hence, in the original story, her normal attack movement was to hit a medicine bottle and make it explode.

　In the event scene she often caused a huge explosion, taking damage and destroying tools, making for a moderately challenging scenario.

　Even in the original story, the character was a good nuisance, but when it came to reality, .......

'No one would voluntarily approach a danger, right?"

　Anyway, for now, he'll think about how he can find the middleman after tomorrow.

◇ ◇◇◇

When Kurt returns, a maid greets him.

" Mister Kurt, you have a visitor. I'll send him to the guest room now."

"Yes, I'll be right there. "

　Kurt was not expecting any particular visitor, but the Grand Duke Kasteen's messenger could have arrived at any moment.

　Thinking that, Kurt immediately went to the parlor as well.

　And at the end of the door was a ...... petite girl.

　Long golden hair.

　A white coat as big as a long coat that is clearly not the correct size.

　She had a childish face with big, clear eyes that made her look like a child.

　She was also quite short.

　She was a definite saint bombshell.

"It's nice to meet you. I'm--"

　At the moment the girl uttered those words, Kurt was closing the door with a bang.

--Why is that person here?　How can she be here?

　Kurt was thinking about how to get her to leave this territory peacefully, but he couldn't make a judgment without asking her why she came here in the first place.

　However, he was afraid that the whole mansion might explode in the middle of the conversation.

　He was afraid to talk face to face.

"Kurt-sama, what's the matter?"

"Just in time. I am afraid to talk to her. This is a very important guest".

　Kurt asked the maid to bring him some drinks and pastries.

"Yes, sure, Master Kurt. I'll bring it right away."

--I would have waited for the maid to come, but I was afraid of making the saint wait too long.

　In a way, she was more troublesome than the mastermind who would not move himself. Kurt took a deep breath and entered the room again.

　The girl inside was angry, her cheeks puffed out.

"Why are you leaving so suddenly?"

"No, no, I was just a little surprised. I didn't expect the saint to come to the Antoner territory."

　Kurt's smile was tight, but the saint didn't seem to mind.

"I'm still an apprentice, so I have a lot of things to explore,"

　The saint sticks out her tongue and shows an embarrassed expression.

'I see. Then there is no more purpose in this territory. I'll have the carriage ready right away."

　Just as Kurt is relieved, the maid enters.

　And she served sweets and tea in front of the saint.

'Please take your time."

--I don't want her to take her time!

　It seemed that he had to sit down and have a long talk with the saint after all.

　However, it seemed that even as a saint, that was what she wanted--.

"I see. I also had something I wanted the lord of this land to listen to."

--What is it? I have a very bad feeling about this.

　It's getting harder and harder to make up a smile.

"What is it?"

"I want you to hire me as your personal alchemist in this territory. Of course, I'm not asking for free.　You saw the hut on the outskirts of the territory, didn't you?"

　As a saint, Kurt thought she was talking about the power to destroy a hut with a single blow and the ability to heal an injured person in an instant.

　But Kurt saw it in a different light.

-No way, is she talking about defeating the people on the mastermind's side in this territory?　If I think about it, the only thing I'm sure of is that the explosion is just dangerous, and I'm sure that she's not from the mastermind's side.

　If he has even been found out to be trying to antagonize the Grand Duke, he can't say no to him in a bad way.

　Kurt let out a sigh of annoyance.

"I understand. In exchange, give me a week."

'Yes, of course!"

　Kurt wondered if he had given a rash answer when he saw Saint's big smile.
