The Incompetent Bratty Prince is out (3/4 chapters)
Decide to Prepare So That There Would Be No Cause for Concern
Thank you for reading at bayabuscotranslation.com)
It has been a while, everyone, Harold here.
I defeated Themis, the administrator of this world, and was finally released from the curse of Engage Hazard. Do you remember how the remnants of Themis said something outrageous last time?
Yes… apparently, of all things, there exists a sequel called Engage Hazard Second.
At least in my previous life, the company went bankrupt six months after the release, so of course there was no sequel. They must have been preparing in anticipation of Engage Hazard becoming a big hit. How extremely annoying. Thanks to that, I am now making as many preparations as possible for the sequel that is supposed to start one year later.
“Come to think of it, Harold, since you are judged by the protagonist, you will not appear in the sequel, right?” (Themis)
“The character ‘Harold’…” (Themis)
“I have told you many times to call me Harold, right?” (Harold)
“Hii!? I-I am terribly sorry! As you say, Mr Harold will not appear!” (Themis)
When I glared at him with half-lidded eyes and made him correct himself, the remnant of Themis… in other words, just Themis, answered while assuming a dogeza posture.
Themis, who knows more about the world of Engage Hazard than I do, is absolutely necessary for me to avoid destruction flags.
“In that case, could my continued existence cause problems in this world?” (Harold)
I put a hand on my chin and thought it over.
Since the sequel takes place without me, at least there should be no destruction flags for me or Xandra. More likely, it is my ‘precious people’… Christia, Carla, and Lizette, who are at higher risk of being involved.
“Haa… this really is a huge hassle…” (Harold)
I let out a big sigh and dropped my shoulders.
“There is no need for you to worry. Any insolent fool who dares to harm Haru-sama, I will turn into rust for Balmung.” (Alexandra)
Speaking with bloodstained crimson eyes was my fiancée, Xandra. In order to shatter the original story, we married before the main story began. That way, a broken engagement would be meaningless. Though as a result, Xandra’s love became even heavier.
“So, Themis, what kind of guy is the protagonist of Engage Hazard Second?” (Harold)
“Y-Yes! He is an exchange student from the Varsa Empire, and his name is ‘Nils Evert Kungnik Varsa.'” (Themis)
“Nils, huh…” (Harold)
Considering the example of Wilfred, this guy is probably another unaligned attribute harem protagonist. I just hope his personality is different from Wilfred’s.
“And the heroines?” (Harold)
“Christia-sama, Carla-sama, Lizette-sama, and of course, many of the heroines who appeared in ‘First’ will also appear! That is… those who could not become the previous protagonist’s fiancée…” (Themis)
I see… that is quite a cruel setting. In other words, the heroines rejected by Wilfred will become the heroines of the sequel.
Wait? Hold on?
“In that case, who became Wilfred’s fiancée in Engage Hazard?” (Harold)
“T-That is…” (Themis)
For some reason, Themis hesitated to answer.
It must have been an undesirable result.
“Answer quickly. Haru-sama does not have time to waste.” (Alexandra)
“Hiiiii!?” (Themis)
Xandra pressed the blade of Balmung against Themis’s neck and intimidated him.
It is not that I am particularly busy, but seeing as I will surely be restrained by Xandra after this, I had kept my schedule open. Not that I would ever say such a thing out loud.
“I-It was ‘Monica’-sama!” (Themis)
“Eh…?” (Harold)
At Themis’s words, I inadvertently let out a dumbfounded voice.
Huh? Monica did not appear in Engage Hazard, so how did it come to that?
“It, it will be told in the afterstory of ‘Second’, but the House of Duke Chevalier was destroyed for the crime of treason, and Monica-sama, who was left wandering the streets, was noticed by the protagonist, and then…” (Themis)
“…That is an amusing joke.” (Monica)
“!? Hiiiiiii!?” (Themis)
Hearing Monica’s voice suddenly from behind, Themis let out the loudest scream of the day.
Or rather, when did she even enter this room?
“Your Highness Harold, Milady. Let me make it clear, no matter what heavenly disasters occur, no matter if the world meets its end, it is absolutely impossible for me to ever end up with that piece of trash.” (Monica)
“Yeah…” (Harold)
“I-I understand…” (Xandra)
Faced with Monica, who was emitting an unbelievably terrifying killing intent unlike usual, both Xandra and I instinctively shrank back. It might be the first time she has ever been this enraged.
“Well, putting that aside, tell me about the heroines and the disposable characters who will appear from ‘Second’.” (Harold)
“Y-y-y-yessssssss…” (Themis)
Themis, overwhelmed by his fear of Monica, could not even speak properly.
We extracted every bit of information about Engage Hazard Second and continued to work on countermeasures until late into the night.
