waka-sama = young master Normally itd be my policy to translate it as young master, but that doesnt rhyme with baka-sama. And I cant think of any word for idiot that would rhyme with young master exactly either, so yeah.
Todays the entrance ceremony. It seems that our Baka-sama- Ah, I mean, our Waka-sama, has wandered off somewhere again. Isnt it no good for a prince to ditch the entrance ceremony? Seriously, I wish hed cut me a break. Hes probably wandering around the school, chasing ass anyway. Only that guys womanising is the same as in the game.
While I was searching for Baka-sama, I was looking around and observing the other factions. Of course, my motivations are just a pure desire to pay respects to the other characters from the otome game. In the game, all of the characters first gathered here at this school.
The otome game that I love, Carte Jouer For some reason or another, this world is the world of that otomege. Ive played it a number of times, so there shouldnt be any mistake. I was on the way back from university, when no sooner had I fallen into an open manhole, than I found myself in this world. Id switched places with someone else.
Beatrix Tapas Thats my current name. And Beatrix was the name of a counts daughter who appeared in the game as an enemy character.
In the games story, she bullied, and bullied, and bullied the heroine without end; a villain to the roots. She was a slender beauty with long, straight, black hair, harsh looking orange coloured eyes, and bright red lips that seemed like they could eat a man alive. Truly, a nobles daughter who played the role of a rival. Since I ended up switching places with such a woman, I fell into despair. I mean, this villain ojousama met with a miserable end, after all
Beatrix who had fallen in love with the prince of her country had gotten in the way of his romance with the heroine, and incurred the wrath of that prince. And she received dreadful retribution from him. The worst retribution ever; she was ordered to marry this fat, greasy, five time divorced old geezer who already had kids. Thats why the moment I became Beatrix, I began making my move.
As if Id let things happen like the game!
For the sake of distancing myself from the Beatrix in the game, I decided to try dressing as a man, and found that it fit me perfectly. This was when I was five. Since then, Ive always lived as a crossdresser. In case the worse came to worst, I polished my swordsmanship as well, so that I could live on my own no matter what happened. And now, Im more popular amongst women than even the prince.
Im beginning with observation of the Hearts faction. How disciplined. Dont they have all thirteen members of them there? Its a huge difference from our faction. However
Wh- Could that be? Nah, the impression they give is too different, so perhaps Ive got the wrong person? Shes a pretty student with pink hair and a petite build. Theres only one character with that appearance.
Goshhhhh. Royce-sama you knowww~? Loves Camille, you seeee~ So theres no room for a dirty looking Ugly like you, is thereee~?
was the signature phrase of the Heart Routes burikko rival. Isnt that Camille Rhodolite, the Q of Hearts who grandly landed a smashing lead at rank 1 of the Annoying Characters list?
But why is Camille covered all over in tattoos? Did something happen to her!? Her clothing is considerably different from her in-game design too. Even though Camille is supposed to be a bishoujo who suited her goth loli fashion outfits, why the heck is that girl wearing a mantle that could be a magicians uniform? Its way too plain!
And the Spades faction. For a while now, the K of Spades Raiger Transbaal, and Mei Zakro have been meeting their eyes meaningfully from time to time. Its almost as though theyre lovers Even though Mei was supposed to be a rival character as well. Or more like, I was a Raiger fan too For him to be unavailable as a love interest from the start I want to cry
As for the Clovers faction, theres nobody except for the K of Clovers, but? Whered the Q and J go?
I know that the Diamonds faction has diverged from its time in the game. I made it that way to avoid my Bad End after all. I accidentally went a bit far, and even ended up changing the feel of the love interest character, the K of diamonds. But still, this is A lot of things are way too crazy. Theres no doubt that there are causes other than me.
Beatrix-sama, today you look gallant as well~
How dreamy. Compared to Beatrix-sama, average men are less than weeds.
The girls from the Diamonds faction called out to me. Were girls born from the same nation. The Diamonds factions strength comprises the students and rich children of nations other than the Garnet Nations. It sounds good, but this school takes the nobles of the Garnet Nation too lightly, huh? For the Garnet Nations nobles of the King Faction and Royal Prince Faction alone to account for twenty six people So unfair. Even though the Diamonds faction all together only has thirteen people!
Huhu, thank you. Such lovely ojousans Im a lucky person, arent I?
Aahh! Beatrix-sama!
Overcome with emotions, the girls eyes moistened with tears. Ive become completely established as a crossdressing character, havent I? Well, its amusing though so its fine.
When I happened to shift my gaze I happened upon a pink head by a far off table. Isnt that Camille from earlier?
Shes gulping down large amounts of alcohol. Even if theyre cocktails-, no, precisely because theyre cocktails, I have a bad feeling about this. Isnt the person standing next to her the J of Hearts, Achille Jade? For that Achille to be taking care of Camille like that, at a time like this Maybe I should try visiting an eye doctor just once. Achille is supposed to hate Camille, who follows his lord around like a housefly. I mean, in the ending where the heroine gets together with the K of Hearts, its by Achilles hands that Camille was socially obliterated, and was forced into a life of misery. But despite that, why do they look like theyre getting along so well? What a mystery.
At that moment, I discovered a person who looked like our Baka-sama behind the hedge. You ditched the entrance ceremony to hide in a place like that? I thought he was picking up girls, but hes chatting friendlily with the prince of our neighbouring nation, the K of Hearts. Ah-, he looked this way.
Bea-chin! So here you were~
After waving to the prince of the neighbouring nation, Baka-sama walked in my direction.
I should be asking you, Waka-sama, where did you go during the entrance ceremony? I was sure that you were flirting with girls in the academys neighbourhood, but
I wasnt, you know~? I was in the infirmary.
Were you always so delicate?
Its fineee, its fineee, Bea-chin, you sure are serious, huh~ You sure worry about the details, huh~ You sure act like a sister-in-law, huh~
Seriously, why did this prince grow up into such a useless guy? Even though he was a high-specd, popular prince in the game. Is it because Ive been spoiling him? By now he has no intentions of opposing the first prince at all.
I was trying too hard in trying to avoid danger to myself, that I greatly exceeded the abilities of the in-game Beatrix. Enough that I serve the second prince as a single knight. On the contrary, because Ive been trying too hard at avoiding becoming enemies with this prince, each year the prince falls further into the mindset that even if he doesnt do something himself, Ill do all the work for him. Since then, for every single thing, Baka-sama has been relying on me, and fawning on me.
I ended up becoming a massively bad influence for this prince.
