It creates a peaceful atmosphere that puts players at ease.

And kill.

Everything. It doesn’t matter if you’re the heroine or anything.

Another tail.

It is a dark fantasy game with a notorious reputation.

Obviously, I haven’t played the game myself.

Killing off a heroine is out of our industry. Don’t eat, drink, or do anything like that.

I was on the other side of the river, watching the advance party blown up without knowing anything about it, and the reckless rearguards who were about to blow up.

Another Tale was popular like that for a while.

On the YouTube Shorts channel, a video was uploaded with the title [Users’ reactions to the most epic back-of-the-head game ever played], which is an edited version of the posts by users of the Another Tale Gallery.

Popular streamers have uploaded videos of themselves playing Another Tale and writhing in pain.

Instead of playing the game directly, I just extract the essence from YouTube, the gallery, and Namu Wiki.

I too joined the trend in the same way.

In short, I don’t know much about Another Tail.

There is very little to remember.

Even if you look at the main character, you probably won’t recognize him?

It would be a different story if we showed the scene where that character dies.

It wasn’t a game that had that much meaning in my life to begin with.

If that were the case, I would have played it myself.

…But why is that?

Sometimes I think of that game.

Of all the games out there, why that one?

A thought that suddenly pops into my head.

By any chance. This world.

Could this fantasy world be the world in Another Tale?

“…Hey.”

No, that’s not true.

Because this world was too peaceful to be a dark fantasy world.

***

About a year ago now.

I became aware of my past life.

Because of this, my modern-day self and my original self as a character in a fantasy world were mixed together to become who I am today.

There wasn’t much change.

I was still the son of a noble family called Bendel.

***

The Bendel family was a so-called noble family.

Although Bendel Territory was located far from the center, this was a reflection of the wishes of the previous patriarch, who had no interest in politics.

Bendel was a renowned swordsmanship family that had produced many renowned swordsmen for generations.

That is, the eyes of the people in this house were all like ghosts.

Human weapons that have grown up since childhood, eating barley rice with a knife.

So, the first emotion I felt when I realized my past life was fear.

What if my family finds out what happened to me?

This world is a fantasy world where all kinds of mysteries and miracles exist.

One day, suddenly our family’s ego changed?

It may not be possible on Earth, but it is completely possible here.

However, the problem is that in this world, anyone who swaps out their body and soul like parts is the number one target for slaughter, regardless of their type.

A young master whose ego suddenly changed?

When you click, the two options that come up are [1. Interrogate] [2. Torture].

So I tried to act as much as possible like I did before my ego got mixed up.

So that my family wouldn’t notice the changes that had happened to me.

It was a waste of effort.

It wasn’t long before I realized that it all made no sense.

The keen eye of a member of a renowned swordsmanship family was not so lax that someone like me could dare to deceive them!

– The development was completely different from what I was worried about.

me.

He was an illegitimate child.

My mother was a servant, nothing more than a nobody.

Even though she was pregnant with her father’s child, the fact did not change.

The author’s father was too noble to take his mother, who was neither a maid nor a servant, as a concubine.

A child born from such a servant.

My family didn’t pay any attention to me.

Since I wasn’t interested in the first place, there was no way I would have noticed any changes.

Even if I noticed the change by chance, I didn’t think much of it.

It was confusing.

Should I be happy about this?

I decided to think positively.

Okay. First of all, where is the biggest problem solved?

Another thing. In this world, the word ‘illegitimate child’ was the most common and insulting insult.

Are those illegitimate children born immune to such insults?

It couldn’t have been more encouraging to be born an orphan and immune to parental abuse.

Having overcome the crisis caused by realizing my past life, I entered a new phase.

-So. What do we do now?

I finally became the son of a noble family in a fantasy world, but they say I’m an illegitimate child.

Treating not only the family members, but also the vassals and servants as if they do not exist.

What kind of future awaits me if I just sit here?

-Enlistment…!

In this world of bastard children, there was a culture of volunteering for military service in order to gain the approval of parents.

Absolutely. Never. Ever. I. Will. Never. Do. That. I. Am. Proud. Of. That.

In my previous life, I was twenty-one.

Only by death can he escape the cursed shackles of military service.

There aren’t even any smartphones here.

Without a second thought, enlistment was an option that was ruled out.

Well then, let’s think about it.

I don’t like the idea of an illegitimate child, a disgrace to the family, going to the military like “ other illegitimate children, do I? ” I proudly declare it?

Your family will listen with sparkling eyes.

And I will pack all your sins into one and send you to the worst unit.

Ultimately, I came to a very reasonable conclusion.

escape.

I don’t think anyone would feel dissatisfied that the illegitimate child who was treated like a non-existent person has truly disappeared.

Under such a logical judgment, it was an illegitimate child who had recently been busy preparing for escape.

Early risers are more independent.

The bastard left the annex of the Bendel mansion where the servants stayed as soon as the morning broke again today.

“Rishir.”

At the entrance to the annex, there was a woman welcoming such an illegitimate child.

It was Maya, the personal maid of my younger sister, Loera.

“Maya, good morning.”

“Miss Loera would like to meet you. The time is today at lunchtime. Please come to the front yard of the main building. ”

My greeting is cool and my attitude of speaking as if I am giving a straight-forward notification may seem a bit arrogant for a maid, but this is also quite an improvement.

Bendel’s maid and Bendel’s illegitimate child.

Which of the two has a higher status?

Without a doubt, she is a maid.

Most of these maids were of noble birth.

You are saying that you are completely noble, unlike me who is half-human.

The retainers of the Bendel Manor treated me like a young master, but it was only a formality.

Their actions were based on deep contempt.

Maya in front of me originally treated me like I didn’t exist.

But now?

“…”

“…”

Look at this.

Maya bows as our eyes meet.

This is what happened because I greeted you kindly every day.

That is truly a great leap forward.

To this extent, he was no different from me being treated like an emperor.

Since becoming aware of my past life, my life has been improving day by day.

…But, Loera wants to meet me?

It’s not a good sign.

Because when a Bendel man looks for an illegitimate child, it’s usually when he’s really pissed.

“What should I do? I have some business today.”

A very important matter that just occurred to me.

Spend time outside until evening to avoid running into Loera.

“Then, can I tell Risir that I will visit him as soon as I finish my business?”

“Can you tell him not to wait?”

“Of course. Lord Risir won’t keep you waiting, young lady.”

No, I don’t think so.

Oh. No, no.

Of course, the windswept young lady of Bendel wouldn’t stay still, but it’s none of my business.

What can you do?

Nagging your dad?

What can dad do?

Get kicked out of the family?

Come on in.

Industry awards.

“…”

“…”

Maya raised her head and looked at me with a look of uncertainty.

But when I smiled cheerfully, he quickly avoided eye contact and left the place.

I too must go my own way.

[Soon the man’s breathing stopped and his body fell limp.]
