Get Ahead of the Fallen Heroine and Make the Bull-Headed Man the Victim - Chapter 168
Chapter 168.
Blonde-haired Allen: We will win! (39)
After leaving the street, Noah returned to the dilapidated temple to observe the situation’s development.
About twenty minutes after the battle on his side ended, Princess Dilia ultimately found Clyde and his group again, forcibly siphoning off half of Agatha’s magic power before decisively making her escape.
By the time Agatha felt her magic rapidly depleting and suspected that someone had attacked her, Princess Dilia had already lifted her skirt and fled.
Thus, when Agatha turned to look back, she didn’t even see a shadow of Dilia.
“What’s wrong? Miss Agatha?”
Noticing that Agatha seemed a bit off, Clyde looked at her with concern.
“Hmm… it’s nothing, young man.”
Agatha knew that even if she spoke up, it wouldn’t change anything, so she merely smiled gently.
Noah could tell from that smile that she was hiding something.
So theoretically, as the victim, Clyde should also be able to see her worries.
However, the victim was indeed a victim; even with combat power surpassing that of ordinary adventurers, his personality remained quite passive.
“…Is that so.”
Clyde didn’t ask Agatha what had happened; instead, he wore a slightly helpless, awkward smile, truly acting as if nothing had occurred and turned his gaze away.
This left Noah speechless. Couldn’t he just ask a simple question?
You really are the epitome of a standard, useless victim, aren’t you? Do you think not asking is being kind to women? Surrendering is also being good to your childhood friend, right?
You really shouldn’t be given any good women; you’d just bring them trouble.
Noah looked at the three people on the monitor, especially regarding the brown-haired boy in the middle with a face full of disdain.
—
Of course, Agatha cannot be considered a truly good woman; she can only be deemed half of one. Although she is very friendly towards humans, she harbors a deep-seated hatred for other races.
In the true history of the kingdom, it was precisely this trait that led to her being betrayed by her sister.
Yet even so, she is still stronger than the weak and selfish victims.
Noticing that she had suddenly lost half of her magical power, Agatha smiled and concealed this fact, pretending that nothing was wrong.
From her demeanor, it seemed she believed that a night’s rest would suffice to remedy the situation.
But Noah, as the culprit who had taken away half of her magic, certainly understood that this was impossible.
Unless she killed the Grand Princess Delia, who had robbed her of her power.
The problem was that she didn’t even know her magic had been taken by the Grand Princess, and even if she did, it was unlikely she would kill the Grand Princess to reclaim her magic.
Agatha is quite tolerant of humans, even towards a wicked woman like Delia.
This is indeed one of her weaknesses.
Perhaps in the kingdom’s history, her sister’s betrayal of Agatha was not only to prevent her from forcefully advancing human supremacy but also stemmed from a desire to avoid seeing Agatha betrayed by the humans she trusted.
Being a sister is truly not easy.
Of course, except for Delia.
Noah glanced at the monitor nearby, which displayed the Grand Princess with a sinister smile, quickly making her way back to the palace.
This golden-haired, curly-haired Grand Princess showed no resemblance to her sister; she not only targeted her sister Valentina at every turn but also exerted more pressure than affection towards her younger sister Veronica.
Moreover, her gratitude towards the deity who helped her was utterly insufficient; she treated the other party as nothing more than a fool.
Fortunately, Noah shared the same sentiment, so it didn’t matter much.
Upon returning to the palace, Delia eagerly summoned her maids, instructing them to teach her how to use advanced magic.
Then, like a child who had just received a new toy, the Grand Princess joyfully wielded the magic she had taken from Agatha, casting spells in the palace training grounds.
“…This girl really doesn’t hold back at all. It feels like if Agatha were to come back to the palace, she would definitely expose herself. Or does this girl simply not care?”
Delia’s actions were not beyond Noah’s expectations; they were just surprising yet reasonable.
The situation at this moment was as follows.
The counterfeit Clyde, Agatha, and the three were grinding through a dungeon.
The Grand Princess was reveling in the joy of being able to cast advanced magic.

The nun was busy delivering messages for the church, triggering side quests in the process.
As for the real Princess Noah, although she had temporarily lost her perspective, she believed she was certainly waiting for her opportunity to appear in the capital, so it didn’t matter if she was ignored for now.
Logically, Noah should have prioritized meeting the nun at this time, especially since she hadn’t expected to trigger a new side quest today.
However, a major event had occurred with the blonde-haired Allen.
Having won the resurrection match, the blonde-haired Allen finally found a different way to snatch ‘Valentina’ from the victim Clyde.
“Oh? So the location has finally been decided to be the palace, huh? No wonder, it’s the Yellow-Haired one who wants to take over this country, he’s really something else.”
Looking at Allen, the female knight captain responsible for guarding the palace’s safety, who was currently in a passionate state, a pleased smile appeared on Noah’s face.
Allen, this Yellow-Haired one, had finally decided to use his own charm and “cow-like” strength to conquer the female knight captain after discovering that his demonic subordinates were not enough.
At this moment, the princess was recklessly displaying her magical powers in the palace’s training grounds.
Meanwhile, Allen was also freely flirting with the female knight captain in another room.
Because he didn’t use his demonic identity, but rather his own charm and “cow-like” strength, Allen successfully deceived the female knight captain, who told him about the knight team’s arrangements for tomorrow.
This meant that he planned to make his move tomorrow morning, right in the palace, and he had already thought out his plan to take over Valentina and the country.
The female knight captain, who was usually a serious and stern woman, was completely helpless in front of Allen’s “cow-like” strength, and her coquettish voice was like music to the ears.
She was completely unaware of the trouble she would bring to the kingdom and was still flirting with Allen, asking him if he would come tomorrow.
“Of course, how could I not come?”
Allen naturally responded with a charming smile and expressed his confirmation, then continued to send the female knight captain into a state of bliss.
“Yes, he’ll definitely come, because he’s planning to give ‘Valentina’ a surprise tomorrow morning.”
Meanwhile, Noah, who was watching from the monitor, couldn’t help but smile and nod his head.
It seemed that tomorrow morning would be the climax of the “Revival of the Yellow-Haired One” and the princess’s main storyline.
It was time for him to make his final preparations.
“…If you, Princess, don’t take the initiative to appear, then don’t blame me for letting that fake replace you as the real deal.”
Noah lazily lay on the sofa, looking at the broken grand hall with the sculpture of Valentina, the evil dragon queen, and his smile gradually turned sinister.
Then—tomorrow morning, at the palace.
The Yellow-Haired Allen sounded the start of his revenge war, which would eventually be ruined by Noah.

PS. Today’s third update.
(As for the plot, if nothing unexpected happens, Noah will be calculated by the princess tomorrow.)
(Actually, the original plan was to update today, but since the updates have been too few these past few days, it can only be pushed to tomorrow, and I’m really sorry to the readers, I’ve been lazy qwq)
