Volume 9, Prologue

Part 1

The capture target boy has become a girl.

I learned of this fact in my room in the boys’ dormitory the day before the new school year began.

One of the boys, the capture target of the third work of that otome game, became a girl before the game scenario started.

I, [Leon Fou Bartofalt] understand it in my head, but my heart can’t keep up with it.

Although I am a student, I am a man who has been given the title of Marquis through harassment.

This is all that trash King Roland’s fault.

My bad, but I don’t have time to think about Roland right now.

After all, the boy who was the capture target has become a girl.

The people who caused this disaster are my sister from a previous life [Marie Fou Lafan] and the sphere [Creare], which is about the size of a softball equipped with artificial intelligence.

During spring break, I was forced to take a leave of absence at my parents’ house, so I left the two of them to do some investigation at the school.

She was supposed to have her gather information about that third otome game, but Creare turned a male student named [Aaron] into a female with the power of science, calling it an experiment.

It’s beyond awful.

What’s worse is that Creare has experimented on the people of this world by treating them as descendants of new humans.

Creare and the other machines created by the old humans have a deep-seated hatred for the new humans who can handle magic. It’s hard to say whether they have a heart or not, but at any rate, they hate humans, including me, who can handle magic.

Even Creare, who is more moderate than my partner, [Luxion], would act in this way, not thinking of people as people.

That’s also the scary part ―― But, the problem is the fact that she made him change his gender.

In the world of that otome game, there is no such thing as gender change technology ―― or it should be.

I invited Marie and Creare to my room in the dormitory and sat down on a chair in front of them.

Marie was sitting upright on the floor and Creare was rolling on the floor, looking up at us.

“Now, let’s hear your excuses.”

Marie was trembling with her head down in front of my cold-hearted tone.

Luxion, who floats around my right shoulder, is in charge of this inspection meeting.

[The fact that you turned a boy into a girl is a problem, but the fact that one of the capture targets dropped out is bad. At the same time, it’s a big problem that you performed a gender change that may or may not exist in this world.]

The problem is that by making Aaron a girl, one of the capture targets in the game scenario dropped out of the main character’s potential lover.

He is a woman inside? Anyway, it seems that he likes boys, so it’s doubtful that he fell in love with the main character, a girl.

However, there was no change in the fact that one possibility was lost because of Marie and the others.

The other was the unveiling of over-technology.

They had shown him technology that did not exist in this world.

This was not the end of the story of Creare’s high technology. There is a possibility that people who want to have a gender change will hear about it and come to us, and people who want to acquire this technology will come to us.

It may be too late for me to stand out, but I’m not willing to do so.

It seems that Creare had prepared an answer to Luxion’s question in advance. She did not show any signs of smooth over or confusion.

[The problem is that one of the capture targets has been eliminated, but judging by his preferences, it’s unlikely that he and the protagonist became lovers, right?]

[I admit]

[Next is the gender change technology, but don’t worry. I’ve explained that it’s a lost item that can only be used once. I’ve explained it to Aaron so clearly.]

[Well, that’s fine. But――]

While Luxion showed a certain understanding of Creare’s excuse.

[――Why didn’t you inform us beforehand? Another problem is that the subject of the experiment was kept secret. If I had known about it beforehand, I could have stopped it, right?]

Creare, who had been looking relaxed, turned her one-eyed blue lens away from Luxion. It was as if she was expressing her guilt.

[T-That’s because Marie-chan remembered it too late.]

Sensing that she was being forced to take responsibility, Marie looked up and glared at Creare.

“By the time I remembered, it was too late, wasn’t it! You were too cunning to sell me out to save yourself!”

[Marie-chan asked me for money to keep quiet, didn’t you! We’re partners, a partner!]

A silence fee? When I stared at Marie, she noticed my gaze and shrunk. Then, in a cold sweat, she made an excuse.

“Y-You’re wrong. Aniki, listen to me.”

“I’ll listen. If you can convince me, I’ll forgive you.”

“Y-You know, Creare received payment from Aaron for his gender change! It was a huge amount of money and I asked her what she was going to do with it ――”

[Marie-chan is terrible! You told me then that you’d be covering for me, right. You got 50% of the money, and you’re not going to do that, are you?]

“You are so noisy! I need to make a living!”

The sight of Kyle and Kara, who are devoted to Marie, and Marie, who struggles to make ends meet to take care of the five idiots who are her baggage, brings tears to my eyes.

No good. This is no time to feel sorry. In the first place, I’m in the position of being forced to take care of all of Marie and the others.

The sight of Marie suffering from the five idiots is my tomorrow.

I let out a sigh and asked them to tell me more details.

“Just tell me in detail what happened during spring break.”

Marie and Creare glanced at each other and then began to talk about the details of their spring break.

“Actually――”

.

Part 2

The school was pretty quiet during spring break.

The only people passing each other in the hallways were teachers and staff working at the school.

There are some students who do not return to their parents’ homes, but not many of them remain at the school.

Marie, with Creare, walked down the hallway where the bulletin board had been prepared.

Marie found it somewhat strange to see the bulletin board on the wall of the hallway, which looked like the inside of a castle, with various documents posted on it.

There was an uncomfortable feeling as if reality had entered into the fantasy world that she imagined.

Normally, Marie would have walked past the bulletin board, but when she saw a familiar face there, she stopped to check it out.

“Aniki is on the wanted list?”

She approached the bulletin board and gazed at the hateful face of her brother ―― Leon. It must have been from when he fought in the Republic against the Holy Kingdom of Rachel.

Beside it, there is a picture of a captured enemy fleet commander with a disgusting smile on his face. Perhaps because of the artist’s feelings, he looks quite villainous.

The amount of money was written underneath the picture, but the unit of currency was not Dia.

Creare’s blue lens shines, checking the contents.

[Ara Ara, Master has become famous, hasn’t he? There’s a bounty on his head, it’s worth five million Dia in the kingdom’s currency.]

When Marie heard that it was five million Dia, she immediately converted it into Japanese yen.

“That’s 500 million, isn’t it! Aniki isn’t worth 500 million ?!”

[You’re terrible, too, Marie-chan]

“What are we going to do? Aniki becomes like a criminal.”

When Marie mistakenly thinks that Leon has become a criminal, Creare explains.

[This is a wanted poster from the Holy Kingdom of Rachel. Sure, he will be caught out there, but that’s just proof that the enemy thinks Master is a threat.]

“Oh, yes, it’s written in a foreign language. But if that’s the case, why is it posted here?”

Marie couldn’t understand the significance of putting up a foreign wanted list in the school of the Kingdom of Horfalt. However, two male students pass by Marie and the other.

They didn’t stop, but they looked at the bulletin board and had a conversation.

“Leon-senpai, he’s wanted in a foreign country, huh. As expected from him”

“Five million is great, isn’t it? He’s already a famous person in foreign countries.”

Even though Leon was wanted, the boys took a favorable view of this fact.

Marie tilted her head as she watched the back of the two boys walking away.

“Isn’t that a strange reaction? He’s a wanted man, you know.” f𝗿𝗲e𝒘e𝚋n૦𝘃𝙚𝑙.com

[Being resented by a foreign country is like proof of success. As a knight, it makes you proud.]

Marie looked at her as if she couldn’t understand when she learned that the knights of her country were proudly posting on the bulletin board that they had performed so well.

“It’s been a while since I’ve been reincarnated, but there’s still so much about the culture I don’t understand.”

While Marie was looking at Leon’s hateful face in astonishment, a person approached her.

“Do you have a minute?”

Marie, who had already guessed who the voice belonged to, let out a small sigh and then turned her upper body around.

“You again?”

The male student was a neutral beauty that Marie could not help but be fascinated by.

His skin is smooth and his lips are fresh.

His unkempt hair had been taken care of, and even his hair was much better groomed.

Marie loves beautiful boys, but because of her previous life experiences, she can see that the boy in front of her is not sexually interested in her ―― in women.

In front of this male student, Creare had a tone of curiosity in her voice.

[I see you’ve made up your mind. But ―― do you have the money to pay for it?]

Creare, who had known him for some time, pointed her blue lens at the leather travel bag the boys were carrying.

A male student holds out his travel bag in front of him.

“I have redeemed all the treasures I acquired during my time as an adventurer.”

Creare gives a satisfied approval to a male student who places it on the floor and shows her the contents.

[Okay. Then it’s my turn to keep my promise. I will use a lost item on you that can change your gender.]

Hearing Creare’s words, the boy in front of her was so happy that the tears welled up in his eyes.

“T-Thank you!”

Marie, who was watching, whispered to Creare so that the boy wouldn’t overhear their conversation.

“Hey, are you sure about this?”

[It doesn’t matter. I have Master’s permission.]

“Did aniki give you permission to do that?”

[This is the scum who tried to touch Livia-chan before. Master said I can do whatever I want to someone like that.]

Marie turned her disdainful gaze to the boy when she heard this story.

“Did you try to put your hands on someone who has a lover?”

The boy nodded regretfully at Marie, who couldn’t help but question him.

“You know it? Right, I (Wata) ――I (Ore) was the worst person. But then I realized my true feelings.”

“True feelings?”

When Marie couldn’t understand, Creare explained the feelings of the boy.

[When you want something but can’t have it, you feel the need to defile it, don’t you? That’s also what happened to this guy.]

Marie has a vague recollection of this. In her previous life, what she couldn’t get was a happy family. It was fine when she was a child, but when she became an adult and started her own family, it didn’t go well.

So sometimes when she saw a happy family, she couldn’t help but envy them.

It would be a lie to say that she did not feel anger towards those who had what she could not have.

” ―― Well, I can only understand the feelings, though.”

Only the feelings. She despises the boy in front of her who actually tried to act.

The boy took Marie’s gaze for granted.

“I’m glad you can understand even just the feelings. But I really want to make this wish come true. I (Ore) ―― I (Watashi) want to be a woman.”

In front of the determined boy, Creare explained the future arrangements in a louder voice than usual.

[Okay. Then let’s get started right away. If we don’t get it done before the new semester, we’ll have a lot of trouble.]

“Thank you!”

When a male student gave a big smile, Marie restrained Creare.

“Hold on, is it okay to decide so easily? Just in case, maybe we should confirm it with aniki.”

Marie said that they should get confirmation from Leon, but glanced at the large bag full of money the boy had prepared.

“Ara? Didn’t Master remind you to follow my instructions, right?”

“Uuh?!”

Before Leon returned to his parents’ house, Marie was repeatedly told to follow Creare’s instructions. This is because Leon trusts Creare more than Marie.

Because of the strong reminder, Marie could not resist Creare.

[And I can’t get in touch with him right now. Communication isn’t working well these days.]

“I-Is that so? Well, then you’d better wait a while――”

Noticing that Marie’s eyes are fixed on a large sum of money, Creare offers her a deal.

[I’ll give you a share if you cooperate with me, Marie-chan.]

“Is it okay ?! If so, please give me 70%!”

Marie, who was reluctant to ask for all of it, eventually demanded 70% of it.

Creare was in a good mood at the sight of Marie.

[I don’t dislike your brazenness. But you’re being too greedy. I’ll give you forty percent]

“Sixty percent! Please, living is really hard!”

[No, but――]

“If so, 50% is fine! I’ll endure with only half this time!”

[W-What do you mean, endure with only half?! Marie-chan, you didn’t do anything this time, right?!]

“If you give me half, I’ll make sure to cover for you if aniki gets mad. Come on, please!”

Marie’s sweet voice convinced Creare to go along with it.

It wasn’t until three days after the surgery that Marie exclaimed when she heard the name of the boy.

.

Part 3

” ―― That’s what happened.”

A boy’s dormitory room for the new school year.

I was in the mood to yell at Marie and the others when I heard what they had been doing over spring break.

But before I do, there is something I really need to check.

“Wait a minute. What do you mean I’m wanted? What did I do?”

When I heard that I was wanted by the Holy Kingdom of Rachel, I broke out in a cold sweat. It was insane that they would prepare a bounty of 500 million on me personally.

Marie and Creare look at each other and say something to each other that makes me look like a fool.

“What did you do? There are so many, I couldn’t tell you which ones.”

[I agree. From the perspective of the Holy Kingdom of Rachel, I’m sure they hate Master.]

What did I do to those guys?

Just when I thought I had no reason to be resented so much, Luxion explained what I had done in a dumbfounded tone.

[Master, have you forgotten? It was the Holy Kingdom of Rachel that supported the coup in the Republic. It was you who thwarted their attempts. And what did you do when they changed course and tried to take the Republic’s territory?]

The Holy Kingdom of Rachel has sent a fleet to take the Republic’s land, so I took their flagship, a flying battleship, to ask them to leave peacefully.

So I just took the commander aboard the flagship as a prisoner and turned him in to the Republic.

After that, I trust that Alberg-san will be able to wrap things up nicely.

“I took the commander alive. Didn’t that go peacefully?”

[It was a humiliation for them, even if it was peaceful for Master. They couldn’t do anything about it, they lost their commander, and they were humiliated to return to their country without any serious damage.]

Creare, who agrees with Luxion, also blames me.

[A failed coup and a humiliating defeat in a fleet battle? For them, it’s like losing to Master only.]

I thought I had ended it peacefully, but it seemed to be humiliating for them.

When I couldn’t even speak, Marie looked away as if she couldn’t stand to watch me.

“――I think it can’t be helped if aniki gets a bounty on his head.”

I never dreamed that I would be on the wanted list with a bounty on my head.

As I was breaking out in a cold sweat at the danger of being targeted, Luxion and Creare suddenly became alert with their eyes fixed on their surroundings.

The loose atmosphere from earlier had disappeared.

“What’s wrong?”

Luxion is showing more caution than ever before.

[The link to the drones in the school has been severed. At the last moment of the disconnection, I saw the reaction of the evil armor. Master, we’re being sabotaged.]

When I heard the word evil armor, my gaze sharpened as well.

It is a lost item that still remained in this era, just like Luxion and others, an AI.

If Luxion and the others are the weapons left behind by the old humans, then the evil armor is the weapon left behind by the new humans.

In other words, they are enemies to Luxion and others.

An anxious Marie asks, remembering the evil armor she has encountered so far.

“Evil armor is that, right? You know, the ones that parasite people and run amok? Are they anywhere near here?”

I looked out the window, but the scenery in the school was still the same as before.

I don’t think there is very dangerous evil armor nearby.

Marie’s question was answered by Creare, who was alert to her surroundings.

[I’m talking about evil armor that is smart enough to interfere with us. It won’t be the shards we’ve encountered so far, it’ll be real evil armor with a core.]

When Marie tilted her head, Luxion explained about the evil armor.

[The evil armor is the weapon used by the new humans. The Bio Core is the control unit that assists in controlling it. Without the bio core, the evil armor will possess people and run amok.]

Marie turns pale when she hears that the perfect evil armor are nearby.

“W-We can win, right?”

To Marie’s anxiety, Luxion does not give her easy hope.

[It depends on the enemy. But if they have destroyed our network, we have to conclude that their rank as evil armor is quite high.]

It seems that rather strong evil armor have infiltrated the school.

It’s extremely troublesome.

I ask Luxion about the next step.

“Can’t you locate that evil armor?”

[I don’t have any information at this time. But there is no doubt that they have entered the school.]

“It’s going to be inconvenient for a while. I wanted to check things out.”

I wanted to gather information for that third otome game scenario, but this was inconvenient and unavoidable.

Creare was already reviewing the security system.

[There is no choice but to deploy a lot of small drones and cover them with quantity. But I still feel bad that there are enemies in the school!]

The relic of the new humans, the evil armor, has blended into the school, and Creare seems to be annoyed.

Luxion gives me a warning.

[Master, please refrain from acting alone for a while.]

“I always play it safe, so I’ll stay in this time. But still ―― “

[What is it?]

” ―― No, I just remembered that in a previous life, I also bought a paid item, an evil armor.”

The other paid item I bought to complete that first otome game was the immigrant spaceship Luxion at my side.

It was a piercing black demon armor.

When I talked about my past life, Marie spoke up out of nostalgia.

“Ah, there was. I saw a few of them, but I wasn’t interested in them because they were too thorny and not cute enough. Mostly, that design is not for girls.”

The design looked like something a boy would like, so it was no surprise that Marie had such an opinion.

Luxion grumbled at the mention of my purchase of the evil armor.

[Did you get the evil armor? That’s the wrong choice. It seems that Master has been making important decisions wrong since his previous life.]

Luxion is in a bad mood just because I got a paid item.

Creare also complains about my decision.

[Master, only the evil armor is no good. It’s a waste of money, so if you’re going to spend money, you might want to think a little more before you decide.]

Both Luxion and Creare have a severe aversion to evil armor, which is a relic of the new humans. Therefore, if I get involved in the slightest way, this is what happens.

“The two of you are so persistent, complaining about the story of my previous life.”

But that evil armor ―― If that thing existed in this world as well as Luxion, it would be quite troublesome.
