Reincarnated Into a Game as the Hero’s Friend: Running the Kingdom Behind the Scenes (Novel) Vol. 04

A DIVIDED FRONT

With Lord Werner’s ability to predict the future thanks to his knowledge of the classic RPG in which the world is based, saving the kingdom should be a walk in the park. But politics rarely makes things so simple… Now, along with protecting Mazel’s family and devising plans to defeat the demons, he takes on yet more responsibility by attempting to unmask the villains who threaten to destroy the kingdom from within. Will he ever get a break?

Series Overview: Someday, the hero Mazel will battle the Demon Lord with the fate of the realm at stake. But until that day…he better be carrying plenty of potions! While the hero is off saving the kingdom, it’s up to Lord Werner—a Japanese office worker reincarnated into the world of a classic RPG—to keep the rest of the world from becoming collateral damage. There’s no hero, luminary, or warrior of light who doesn’t need a friend like Werner! But can he truly defy the flames of fate and change the bittersweet ending of the game?
