Get Ahead of the Fallen Heroine and Make the Bull-Headed Man the Victim

51. Since you want to show off, I’ll play along with you!

According to the original plot, as the blonde-haired Allen, he would shine during the Delia incident.

When Clyde, the victim, was taken hostage by the Grand Princess, Allen would take the opportunity to comfort the originally anxious Valentina, giving players the illusion that Allen was actually quite decent.

But in reality, Allen just wanted to savor the thrill of victory.

Whether it was stealing someone else’s girlfriend or usurping someone else’s throne.

However, now that Noah had intervened, Valentina was not as naive as in the original story; she had already witnessed the might of this hidden BOSS, and a villain like Delia wouldn’t cause Valentina to lose her judgment.

In the past two days, Allen had approached Valentina twice, and each time she had remained remarkably composed in front of him, appearing flawless.

…Though once Allen left, Valentina would be anxiously contemplating whether to surrender to Noah.

Having already lost face in front of Valentina, and now unable to take advantage of the situation, it was naturally within Noah’s expectations that Allen would be unable to take any further action.

Allen’s target was the residence of Marquis Clemens in the royal capital, as he had learned through his own means that the thug who bore a striking resemblance to Valentina was hiding there.

His goal was to take that thug away and force him to confess that he was actually a pawn of Delia, used to slander Valentina.

In this way, Valentina would be proven innocent, and surely she would look at him in a new light.

Just thinking about how Clyde was currently being controlled by other nobles, only dragging Valentina down, made Allen’s lips curl upward as he walked through the halls of Marquis Clemens’ residence.

He hadn’t originally intended to go this far, after all, Clyde hadn’t even confessed to Her Highness the Princess yet.

Even if he snatched the princess away now, he wouldn’t achieve the ultimate thrill.

Allen admitted that Valentina was indeed a top-tier beauty; a woman who appeared simple and approachable yet had a proud and stubborn heart. It would indeed be quite delightful to play with her innocence and turn her into his own s*x slave.

But Allen was also quite concerned about Clyde; that commoner kid had actually grown up as childhood friends with the princess.

To that kid, Valentina must be like a white moonlight, right? If she snatched away his hopes at the peak of his pride, wouldn’t that render his feelings utterly pointless?

How could Allen, who revels in plunder and victory, possibly let go of such a sense of triumph?

Although it wouldn’t matter if he did nothing, since Clyde was merely dragging his feet in this incident, Allen couldn’t shake the feeling that Valentina had been growing faster than he had anticipated.

Thus, he decided to change his original plan and act early, lest Valentina underestimate him.

“Lord Allen, it’s the room on the left at the deepest end of this corridor.”

As the maid from the Clemens family bowed her head to him, Allen merely nodded arrogantly and walked toward the room, not bothering to be polite or amiable as he usually was.

This was because Allen no longer needed to pretend to be a refined gentleman.

The noble lords here wouldn’t know, would they? In fact, his subordinates had long disguised themselves as humans, lurking among them to gather intelligence for him.

Otherwise, he wouldn’t have been able to obtain this crucial information.

After all, for that woman who possessed only beauty as her virtue, a thug resembling Valentina could never be exposed.

What a pity, humans, you are merely toys for our demon race. I can easily disrupt your plans and take everything from you without a second thought.

The closer Allen got to the room, the more his expression approached his true nature.

No longer was it the face of the human scholar Allen, but the grotesque visage of a demon leader.

Oh dear, this won’t do; I must control my expression.

Just as he was about to push the door open, Allen deliberately paused to collect his thoughts.

He tucked away that terrifying villainous demeanor and put on the friendly guise of a human scholar, preparing to persuade the other party to confess that she was Princess Delia, who had come to slander Valentina.

If that didn’t work, he would resort to seduction; after all, unlike humans, his endowment was quite impressive, and no human woman could possibly resist.

With this blend of confidence and arrogance, Allen placed his hand back on the doorknob.

—And then, in the next moment, the door was kicked open from the inside.

“!?”

Almost having the door stomped on him, Allen stared in disbelief at the scene before him.

He remembered his subordinate just saying that the thug should merely resemble Valentina, primarily relying on magic to disguise themselves as an ordinary adventurer.

If that were the case, then who was this ‘Valentina’ before him, who had just kicked the door open and was now looking at him with the disdain one might reserve for trash?

“Oh, isn’t this the teacher? Have you eaten?”

This Valentina was, of course, Noah, transformed using the powers of the evil god. He smiled at Allen, just like the real Valentina would, greeting him as he quickly darted to the end of the corridor.

The voice was undoubtedly Valentina’s, but the personality, of course, was Noah’s own.

“What? Is it really Tina? No, wait a minute, why are you asking such a strange question?”

Confused by the scene before him, Allen couldn’t comprehend the question and bluntly asked.

“Hehe, since you say that, then you haven’t eaten, right? Then take this kick from me!”

Noah, ever so polite, flashed a charming smile at Allen, and then, with a speed that left Allen no time to react, launched a knight’s kick—no, more accurately, it should be called a princess (evil god) kick.

“Y-You, you this…!?”

Because Allen was standing right in front of the window at the end of the corridor, Noah kicked him straight out.

Both of them flew into the backyard of the Marquis Clemens’ estate amidst the scattering glass that resembled flowers.

In truth, if Allen had unleashed his true power, he could have avoided it; after all, Noah wasn’t using his full strength either.

But Allen was worried about exposing his identity as a demon, so he had no choice but to take the hit head-on, landing directly on the lawn of the backyard.

He was already in a miserable state, but Noah didn’t let him off the hook. Instead, he stomped down hard on Allen’s chest with the high heel of Valentina’s right shoe, revealing an evil smile like a true demon king.

“Oh? What’s wrong, teacher? Why do you look so weak? Could it be that you’ve overindulged?”

This provocative remark struck deep into Allen’s heart, almost making him forget to act and reveal his true nature.

Fortunately, he managed to hold back. Though angry, he still maintained the facade of a dignified scholar and shouted loudly:

“You’re not Tina, are you? That girl isn’t as barbaric as you!”

This statement, along with his expression of barely contained rage, amused Noah.

Isn’t that obvious? Noah had no intention of playing Valentina; he was currently playing—Valentina’s thug, to be precise.

The blonde villain acting against the hidden BOSS.

Now that’s fair!
