After overcoming the second wave, we were about to go to another country to perform our class-ups.
Then, the Second Princess chased us and suggested that I talk to the Trash King.
At this time, a knight suddenly swung his sword at the Second Princess. I immediately tried to cast Air Strike Shield, but…
“You’re wide open!”
“Gaaaah!”
Melty’s fist pierced the knight’s torso and he was blown away.
“Eh…?”
“Yo-you cursed shield demon! How dare you make the princess do such a thing!”
The knights all fled while panicking.
“Don’t you run away! What were you thinking, to swing your sword at me! I won’t be forgiving you depending on the circumstances! Filo-chan, you’re helping me too!”
“O-okay!”
And so the second princess, of all people, started chasing after the knights she had brought with her together with Filo.
“Hey! Don’t just take Filo away with you without permission!”
In the end, several knights ended up managing to escape as a result of me stopping her.
After tying up the knights, the Second Princess wiped her forehead as if she had finished her work.
“… Second Princess. You’re strangely strong. What level are you?”
“Me? I’m level 100.”
100!? That’s more than double ours! No wonder she’s that strong!
Damn… So I was making fun of this monster?
“You’re unbelievably strong.”
“I’m prepared in case of an emergency.”
What kind of emergen… Oh, like now.
After that, we were wanted for the kidnapping of the Second Princess.
Seriously, how am I supposed to have kidnapped a princess of such a high level!?
With such thoughts passing my mind, we decided to go to the Queen together with the Second Princess so as to not cause a larger commotion.
Along the way, the heroes appeared to stop us.
“It is very likely that he has the power to brainwash others just by talking to them within close proximity. Currently, the church members in the country are working together to break the brainwashing.”
Bitch loudly announces that I have some mysterious brainwashing powers to the heroes.
I tried persuading the heroes together with the Second Princess that this wasn’t the case, but there seems to be no sign of them listening.
“As if such a power exists, you dumbasses!”
No one responds to my retort.
No, Raphtalia, Filo, and the Second Princess were all stunned too.
“Sister? If you don’t stop this, I’ll get angry too, you know?”
“Oh, Melty! My cute little sister! Heroes, please release Melty from his brainwashing!”
That Bitch dares to get on a high horse!
“So that means Raphtalia-chan and Filo-chan are also brainwashed by his power, right!?”
“No! We are not brainwashed!”
“Don’t worry, we’ll be rescuing you all.”
“Filo is together with Master because she wants to!”
Motoyasu, you still haven’t given up on Raphtalia and Filo!? Just how obsessed are you with women?
“Sister!” Melty glared at Bitch. “If you don’t stop messing around, I’ll have to shut you up using brute force. This is your final warning.”
” D-… don’t panic! There’s no way that cute little Melty would say something like this to me! The brainwashing on her must have distorted her personality!”
“R-right!”
“Certainly… a princess would never make such a threat!”
Ren and Itsuki are now seeing eye to eye with Motoyasu!
Damn it! I was banking on the fact that they were still on the fence, so that I could somehow negotiate my way out, but that’s not gonna fly now.
“Second Princess… Can you be a little more docile? Act like you’re a little weaker.”
“It’s not my fault.”
At this point, I can’t help but complain.
I get it that she’s strong, with level 100 seemingly being the highest level…
But how is it that the older sister is not even that strong when the younger sister surpasses her by such leaps and bounds?
Is it the difference in parental education? The Second Princess has seemingly gone through gifted education after all, is that the result of it?
Bitch seems to be unaware of this fact though.
“No… it’s pretty clearly your fault.”
“There’s no point crying over spilt milk. We’ll have to make the heroes withdraw first before proving whether we’re brainwashed or not. Sir Shield Hero, please cooperate.”
“Okay, okay.”
There’s no way around it, I guess.
Actually, since we have the Second Princess at level 100, it should be easy to force our way through this predicament… right?
I take the lead and enter a battle stance.
What is the Second Princess going to do?
Just as I was thinking that, I noticed her starting to chant magic.
“As the source of your power, I command you! Decipher truth once more, and wash them away with a great blast of water!”
That’s fast! Does being a high level make spell casting faster?
“Dreifach Maelstrom!”
A huge amount of water created by magic appeared from the hands of the Second Princess, washing away the area like a tsunami.
We, who were considered allies, were not particularly affected.
Still… it was magic powerful enough to sweep away the whole area. To think that it’d be released within such a short time…
The magical tsunami quickly dissipated. It was indeed magic that created a tsunami-like shock wave.
“””GAAAAAAAAHHHHHHHHHH!!!”””
Ren, Itsuki, Motoyasu, and all of their companions were blown away, similar to what happened a few days ago.
Yup, it’s the same scene as when they got swept away by Glass’ special attack.
“For them to be heroes when this is all they’ve got… How laughable! Sister, make sure to have a proper look at your opponent before trying to fight them, alright?”
This situation… is making me… want to comment so bad…
I know I shouldn’t say it, but… but… I must.
If you already have this much power!
“Go fight the waves yourself already! There’s no reason for me to do it!”

Conclusion: There’s no need for the heroes.
