I Became a Magical Girl in This Fantasy World

I feel extremely uncomfortable.

It’s because, right in front of me, there were students who were tightly hugging each other, on the verge of almost kissing each other.

If they are students, shouldn’t they be studying like students? Why are they already indulging in romance?

Ah, is this too much of a conservative viewpoint?

“Jieun, Jieun.”

“What?”

“Jealous?”

“……”

“Are you jealous? Are you?”

“……”

Watching the friends next to me, poking my side and teasing, I seriously pondered what I should say.

I dislike couples. I’ve disliked them immensely since I was young.

There’s no particular reason.

It’s just that I’m not part of a couple.

Isn’t that so? Honestly speaking, it was difficult for me to imagine a relationship where just having someone beside you makes you happy.

“You have relationships other than romantic ones, don’t you?” one might ask, but well, unfortunately, I’ve hardly experienced such relationships.

My personality isn’t particularly good, and I’m neither handsome, talented, nor wealthy.

“If you’re so envious, then did you accept the confession last time and start dating?”

“That’s because no one confessed to you, that’s why you’re saying that to me.”

“Where in the world does such a thing exist?”

“It does exist. When a really pretty girl and a less pretty girl are together, the less pretty one thinks there’s a slight chance.”

“Why do you joke about it like that?”

No, I’m serious.

“Even so, with your looks, you could probably get a guy, couldn’t you? There must be someone who would accept if you confessed, right?”

You should try saying that so easily.

…Well, objectively speaking, I think “possible” is a fair assessment. If you ask if there’s absolutely no subjective judgment, I have nothing to say, but I’m confident that I won’t be completely rejected anywhere.

The problem is, even if that’s the case, it’s not like I can just grab anyone and start dating right now.

I don’t have time, money, and there’s a mountain of work to do, and on top of that, I happen to like girls.

Yeah. I like girls.
