Prologue (Volume 1) ─ A new beginning

I always wondered, what would my life be like if I acted the way I really want to?

I am Rudel von Bradford at present, I am in a fantasy world which turned out to be a game world.

A lot has happened this week, my head is a mess.

Worst of all, a few hours ago I got engaged.

I'm freaking out.

I told two floating spheres that were with me, Ixion and Bellion─ Bell, about my past.

These spheres are from an old humanity that couldn't use magic, the new humanity can use magic, there was a war in the past between the two I was told.

But that doesn't scare me, I'm scared of what will happen now.

I have been promoted to a count, tonight two girls will arrive soon.

I am afraid.

I always let people down.

What if they reject me?

What if they regret engaging with me?

Disappointment in others is something I always achieved.

I was fired under the concept that I was useless.

I was never able to finish college.

My aunt and uncle kicked me out of the house.

I always thought that distancing myself from others was a good idea to avoid getting hurt.

But now I don't know what to do.

I was looking for my stress pills in the drawer, there are no more.

"I need my medicine, bring me more please."

"I refuse. First of all, Bell and I collected everything and got rid of them."

Ixion used to be loud about using medicine, but when he was tired, he would prepare the medicine without saying a word.

However, only today he resisted me strongly.

Ixion looked at me with his one red eye.

"What's wrong?"

"You should refrain from using medicine. Medicine always works, but follow drugs, relying too much on them is never healthy for the body.

My body was shaking, I really want my medicine.

I will pretend to sleep and if they come, they will simply leave when they see that I am not awake.

"A substitute for the medicine has arrived. Receive the treatment with every desire to see you better."

"Really?"

"Master, did you know that sometimes human skin can soothe the soul?"

"I have heard that."

Sometimes I miss the contact with human skin, of course, I am a virgin and for me, skin contact refers to talking to another person.

How happy I would be if I could be pampered by someone.

I'd rather hug Alisa and Airi and call them mommies... No, it won't happen.

I thought about it myself and got discouraged.

Looks like I'm really getting married after all.

"Enjoy tonight!"

"Fufu, Bell-chan wishes you all the fun in the world. Bell-chan will make sure no one interrupts this, even if it costs me my life!"

"Hey, what's wrong with you guys?"

Suddenly, someone opened the door and out came the artificial intelligences.

Instead, Alisa and Airi, in their sleeping clothes, entered the room.

"Huh? W-want to chat together?"

There was something like that before.

I'm really terrified, I keep sweating.

If I can't sleep, it wouldn't be a bad idea to talk to them.

Both of their cheeks were a little red, probably because they just recently came out from taking a bath.

Both of their hair was a little damp.

Alisa looked straight at me.

"Rudel, it looks like we were naively thinking."

"Huh? Was there a problem? Let's check with Ixion and Bell..."

Airi, who closed the door and locked it, had red ears.

"We were waiting for you to be ready, but we didn't know when it would happen, so Alisa and I decided."

... Be ready?

What were they talking about?

Could it be about what happened on the royal ship?

"They came to ask me about that meter? I told them Ixion said it was a joke, that thing was out of order... huh?"

The two of them slowly approached me and gently pushed me towards the bed.

Even now, I really want to run away....

"... Huh? Huuuuuuuuuuuuh!?"

Airi started unbuttoning her sleepwear.

"I've heard a lot of this from Bell-chan. Th-that men love women's breasts."

That depends on the person!

I don't like them, I love them, but...!

What is that Bell showing Airi?!? ..... Thank you!

Alisa started taking my clothes off.

"Gosh, we're always ready to accept you."

"... Hiiii!"

A strange sound came out of my mouth.

Huh, could it be that time has finally come, did it really come?

"T-Try to calm down, you two!"

However, I know it.

When it comes to this kind of development, there's always something that ruins this moment.

Is it Erselica or the five idiots!? I'm sure at this point...

... Are you guys kidding me?

Huh? No one will really interrupt?

Alisa and Airi approached me.

"Don't think about anything anymore, Rudel."

"We'll take care of everything, just... release it."

"I.....!"

Huh?

Is it possible that... I'm going to do it?

I said I wanted to change, is this the proof I needed?

The eyes of both of them were marking a heart.

"Rudel-san, I love you so much."

"Rudel, give us your love."

The two approached me and...

"This really sucks."

I was taking it out on Ixion.

Reason?

Thanks to Erselica and her mention of the sequel to the first game, I'm now on the move to a foreign country where the events will unfold.

It is a country called Aster Supreme Kingdom. An energy powerhouse unlike the Altfode Kingdom which is barely a grain of sand in the world.

Bell stayed with the girls to protect them.

In my case I had to come for that sequel and stop the final boss from destroying the kingdom.

Worst of all, the idiots and Erselica came with me.

I turned around and watched them playing on the deck of Schwert, my new airship replacing Brunhilde, which was sunk during last year's war against the commonwealth.

I sighed and said to Ixion.

"Hopefully it will all be over quickly, I want to go home."

◇◇◇

Aster Supreme Kingdom, a country composed of seven islands the size of continents, forming a super continent.

They are all united by the roots of a great tree called the Sacred Tree.

In one of the classrooms of the Aster Academy, a meeting was taking place to verify to which classroom the new students would be sent.

The leader of this group was a teacher who also acted as director.

A man in his early twenties, brown hair combed back with a lot of hair gel smeared on it making it spiky.

His face had the expression of a sly fox.

He was Viscount Ressel, Peter Le Ressel.

Peter would go through the documents looking for foreign students from prestigious families and tutor them.

Why would he do this?

He wants to have links with future important young people from different families.

"Rejected."

"Approved."

"Approved."

"Guh, rejected."

His method of sorting was quick and perfect.

He paused when he noticed two documents.

One was from Rudel and the other from the crown prince of the kingdom, Liam von Altfode.

"Umm, an upstart count."

"It says here that until recently he was a country baron, rejected."

His expression of displeasure at Rudel was clear.

"I'm not interested in those who have growth, I'm interested in those who already are."

Peter thought that the important thing in a business relationship was the actual.

In other words, if a young trader has a future, he must already have profits, not wait for them.

After marking "Approved" on Liam, he smiled showing his foxy expression.

"This year will be great perish."

"By the way, Peter-sama. who will be in charge of guiding the students of the kingdom in the academy facilities? All the positions are already filled."

Peter touched his chin and in a nonchalant manner pronounced.

"Tell the princess to do it, after all she is a student, isn't she?"

"Are you sure? She's..."

"I am, I'm part of the Banfield Household faction, I'm not interested in anyone else but my lord."

With that said, everything went smoothly for the new school year.

To finish, let's leave fanservice of him, who will show a different facet to the one shown.

Dear readers, let's get started with this new serialization!

Is it an If story or a spin-off?

All that is at your discretion, but the only real and certain thing is the plot.

"What would have happened if I was more assertive in what I want?"

This plot focuses on getting things in that would never happen in the original novel, meaning this is almost the original draft of the main novel.

As a curiosity, the ending of this and the ending of the main novel will be totally different!

Enjoy this short novel based on cutting down all the volumes that have come out to date.

The plot from vol 1 to vol 3 of the original novel is the same, with small parts changed that do not affect the original plot or this world at all.

As a curiosity, Aster's arc will last only three volumes, but in itself all this will be short, since many things like secrets and explanations will be left for the novel.
