Reborn As Villain's
Chapter 10: Dylan vs. Oscar Part 1.

Dylan was shocked half to death, his normally unsteady eyes, becoming wide open upon hearing the name of the person who had just knocked Hyoga down and threw Filaret over.

Oscar Niville Dragon.

Is the name of the supporting character in "Long Life Braver" he is described as the Holy Knight of the Holy Kingdom of Rachael.

In the game, he becomes a character who will help the hero Reiner in the mission of conquest of one of the last 3 bosses, the Dragon God King, Fafnir.

Oscar also serves as the hero's mentor and hero's party member. He sometimes gives certain missions.

The soul within Dylan knew that, as he had already completed "Long Life Braver" many times in his previous life.

The question now is.

Why the supporting characters who are supposed to help the hero, instead become the mastermind behind the destruction of the Arcadia region.

"Oscar Niville Dragon? Aren't you the 9th seat of the 10 holy knights of Rachael Kingdom!!! What if we do here?".

"Wow, that's amazing. As expected of the Priestess of the Sword of Ice and Light's son, Hyoga van Aracadia. I can tell who I am by just looking at it once. Well, even if this has nothing to do with you being about to die... But, I'll tell you about your journey to the afterlife".

Dylan immediately squinted his eyes, preparing to hear Oscar's explanation.

"Look, yeah. I plan to destroy the Ingrid Kingdom adjacent to the Arcadia region.... And this region is an important point for our invasion of Ingrid Kingdom.... Besides having a port and adjacent to the Sea. This area is also surrounded by forests and high cliff plains.... In the event of a war this is a good location and we can send additional troops and logistical supplies by land and sea".

Oscar turned the expression into a lazy expression.

"At first I thought, what good is it to attack this region?..... But, uh,...".

His expression suddenly became a terrifying smile.

"... When I heard that this region was ruled by the hero of Ingrid Kingdom, the Priestess of the Sword of Ice and Light, Hyoga van Arcadia. So without a second thought I accepted this mission so that I could duel with him.... However, I knew he wouldn't just come out.... So, I used the monsters to lure him out..... However, I didn't think that he had a son that caught my attention.... And this is gonna be very interesting".

Dylan tried to remain calm in response to Oscar's sarcastic smile and provocation.

"Oh, yeah. So that's what you mean".

Then, Dylan immediately pointed his katana sword at Oscar and began to speak.

"In short, the point of your words just now is that you intend to trigger a war, right?.... Just sorry. But, I won't let you take over this territory as your military base".

Dylan countered Oscar's provocation with provocation as well. Seeing Dylan's response, Oscar began to laugh out loud.

"Nails... Ahahaha....!!!! You can talk with a body full of wounds and tattered clothes like that!!! Listen carefully, son.... If your condition is perfect, I will definitely lose. But now it is not just running out of stamina. Your body is also infested with many wounds from fighting the monsters".

Oscar's gaze was turned to a dying monster next to him. And without further ado he immediately threw his sword at the dying monster and spoke again.

"Unlike any other holy knight... I always fight by weakening my opponent first. After that, I just finished him off. That's called the "Hunting Technique"..... So, you'll understand, right?".

Oscar said as he licked the blood of the monster stuck to his sword.

"Sorry to interrupt your conversation".

A voice suddenly rang out and made Dylan and Oscar turn their eyes to the source of the sound.

"But I will not let my son fight alone".

"DAD!!".

Dylan yelled out to Hyoga who had gotten back up and was intending to help him.

"Not just, Dad!?.... I can't let my big brother get into trouble".

"FIRA!!!".

In addition to Hyoga, Filaret immediately stood up while grasping his scythe and intending to help fight Oscar. Dylan who saw the two were fine, involuntarily began to faintly smile.

"You two... Don't die, yeah".

"Huh? What do you mean it? Who will die too? Your father's a man knows!!"

"Dad, Nii-san... Can you two care more about your body condition".

Hyoga was immediately provoked by his emotions when he heard the implied provocation from Dylan's mouth and Filaret tried to mediate between the two.

"Haaaa..... I don't understand what Hyoga and the girl are saying.... But, yeah, that's it. You three attack me.... I'll send you three to the afterlife".

Exuding a terrifying aura Oscar challenged Dylan, Hyoga and Filaret in a 3 vs. 1 fight.

(----------)

Meanwhile inside the walls, residents were still panicking about what had just happened. They all kept hoping and feeling anxious at the same time.

They were very worried if the herd of Monsters managed to break through the city walls. And on the one hand they also hope that all this will end soon.

Pavline is no exception who is currently trying to calm the residents. Despite looking tough on the outside, in his inner heart Pavline is very worried about the condition of his husband and two children.

Actually, after getting a report from the Knights who were assigned to check the situation from the top of the wall.

They knew that Dylan was fighting alone outside distracting the monsters.

Hearing that, Hyoga immediately went to help his son who was fighting alone outside. Filaret also went with Hyoga, although she initially refused. Seeing the persistence in Philaret's eyes, he was forced to let her come along.

Pavline intends to help Dylan face the monsters outside. But, it was immediately prevented by her husband by saying.

"We need someone who can keep people calm in this situation. And the man who's fit for this job is you, Pavline".

Although very objected, inevitably she had to carry out orders from her husband. And let him go to help Dylan.

"Miss Pavline!!".

Pavline who was currently bowing down anxiously, was suddenly startled when one of the knights called out his name. Then Pavline immediately corrected his facial expression.

"Ehem.. Is there anything you want to say? It's been over 3 hours since those monsters attacked".

"Thanks to the moat that appeared out of nowhere, the monsters couldn't cross and touch the city walls so we didn't have a single casualty".

(Heh? A moat? Is there a moat right in front of the city? Is this what Hyoga did? But, he never told me anything? If not Hyoga, who would it be? Fila-chan continues to be with me.... Which means....... That moat must have been Dy-chan).

Pavline nodded his head, as a sign that he understood what was reported just now.

"And as we checked, the mysterious trench circled the entire wall of Linic city. And as expected, Miss. Mr. Hyoga, Mr. Dylan and Ms. Filaret are fighting monsters outside the city gates. The knights have already confirmed his voice. And we're very sure".

"Good work, thanks for the report. You can go already".

"Sorry miss".

"What's wrong?".

Seeing the knight once again calling out his name made Pavline look back at him.

"Ano... Wouldn't we be better off helping them? At least we can use arrows and magic from the top of the wall".

The knight looked anxious because he could do nothing. Pavline understood that, but he chose to get rid of his anxious feelings and change his facial expression to firmness.

"Whatdidyou say? The monsters could not enter the city because my husband and my two children caught their attention. If you shoot them, the attention of the monster will be diverted to you. And that would put the city and the people in danger. In addition, the enemy is not only on land".

"I know how you feel. But this time you can leave this matter to my husband and my two children. Although sorry, your actions will only be an obstacle for the three of them".

"..... All right, if that's Miss's order".

Although looking disappointed, the knight immediately went to carry out the orders from Pavline. After the knight left, Pavline immediately sat on the chair exhaling a long breath and his facial expression became anxious again.

"Are Dy-chan and Fira-chan okay, huh? With Hyoga, they'll be fine. But as a mother, it felt it-".

"Miss Pavline".

A maid named Tina who became the new servant looks the same age as Dylan and Filaret immediately put down a cup of tea and started talking after seeing the sad expression of Pavline.

"Miss need not worry. The three of them must be fine!!! You see, Mr. Dylan and Miss Filaret are very strong, right?".

"Yes, yes, if Tina-chan says it. That must be true".

"It's not just me, but all the knights and everyone in this Arcadia region know how powerful Mr. Dylan is. Do you remember when Mr. Dylan was at the sword festival we held?".

"Eh? Of course I remember. If it's not wrong, Hyoga will... It was a shameful memory".

"Not really, Miss!!! It was because of this festival that the knights and everyone in the Arcadia region, especially this Linic city recognized the greatness of Mr. Dylan. Even Mr. Hyoga was overwhelmed at the Mansion match practice, right?".

"Ah yes it is true.... At that time I was really surprised. Hyoga and I kept wondering with Dylan's strange fighting style and unique sword form. But, when Hyoga asked him to compete. Beyond a doubt their match ended in balance".

"The next one is beyond belief".

Pavline and Tina recalled back when Dylan and Hyoga were practicing swords together. The unexpected incident they were referring to was the moment when both of their swords were both released from their hands.

Instead of finishing the match, they continued the match with each other fighting.

The look on the faces of the two who enjoyed the moment so much and ignored everyone's reaction could only take a deep breath.

"But I think the strongest is Miss Pavline".

"Eh? Tina-chan's chat. What do you mean it?".

Seeing the confused Pavline, Tina began to explain what she said earlier.

"I mean that, no matter how strong they are. Both Mr. Hyoga and Mr. Dylan, they couldn't fight the angry Miss Pavline".

The picture when Dylan and Hyoga got scolding and Pavline's anger because of their behavior that had gone too far to make both of them bowed lethargic.

And Filaret desperately tried to calm her mother who was expressing her anger. It came to Tina's mind.

"Geez,.... Tina-chan could have. I feel very ashamed... But I'm calm because of you... Thank you, Tina-chan".

Then, there was an explosion that instantly stirred up everyone.

"What's that sound?".

"W-what wall that closed the gate was destroyed?".

They knew that the source of the explosion came from the City entrance gate from the smoke rising high.

"Aren't we better off going?".

"Is it safer outside the wall?".

"What if there's a monster left?".

"Then, how are Mr Hyoga, Mr Dylan and Miss Filaret doing?".

"Maybe the three of them have....".

"THE CITIZENS OF LINIC CITY!!!!".

Suddenly a woman's voice echoed there. And when the citizens turned to the source of the voice. All they saw was a Pavline now standing on some sort of podium from a pile of wooden boxes.

"The citizens. Is it possible that you do not trust my husband and my two children as well?.... There's got to be nothing like that, right?".

Pavline asked that while smiling widely but giving off a terrifying aura. The citizens who saw such a Pavline figure instantly trembled in fear.

"Te-of course... We trust. Isn't everything?".

"L-yes".

"We-we believe it".

The citizens had no choice but to answer Pavline's questions while continuing to tremble.

"Then, we don't have to hurry. Even if we can't fight, there must be something else we can do".

"The lady said it was true".

"You all gather people immediately. Children, women and the elderly".

"So make sure the amount of medicine and food".

Seeing the knights and citizens starting to shoulder to shoulder with each other, made Pavline able to breathe a sigh of relief.

However, no one knows.

That from then on, Pavline continued to clench his hands very tightly and his body continued to tremble. As a sign that he was trying to hold the fear in his heart as strong as possible.

No one noticed that, except for Tina who was beside him.

(I'm guessing, Miss Pavline is strong. Although he was the most worried about the safety of the three. He tried to cover it up so that people around him would not worry).

Tia then turned her gaze towards the sky. And he began to sink into his thoughts.

He still remembers well.

The day he first met Dylan, he was just an orphan walking around selling flowers. Tina did it to support her sick mother.

One day, when Tina was selling a man accidentally hit her and dropped a basket containing flowers that she was about to sell.

As a result, the flower becomes dirty and damaged so it can not be sold again. Seeing that made Tina cry.

Instead of helping the person instead continued to walk ignoring the crying Tina while taking back the damaged and dirty flowers.

Then, while she was picking up the flowers, a boy came to her aid. A little chatter, even though just met Tina started telling me all about herself.

Until finally, Tina only found out that the boy she helped and talked to was Dylan Van Arcadia the son of the landlord Arcadia.

Tina was surprised of course. But, even more surprisingly, Dylan reached out and offered him a better job with a stable income.

That's being a waitress in the Arcadia mansion. And not yet there Dylan also helped the treatment of Tina's mother to heal completely without charge. Even Tina's mother named Tordelis was also hired as a Servant.

After recalling the most imprinted thing in her heart, Tina began to clasped her hands together and began to act like she was praying.

(Mr Dylan. You are a different noble from most of the existing nobles. You have absolutely no pride in your status, no hesitation in communicating with us ordinary people and even intervening yourself to help and protect us as we are now. Therefore, please return safely because many people are waiting for you).

In the depths of her heart, Tina prayed for Dylan to return safely.
