“Well, you know. Honestly, like turning into a woman… ”

Between Vita and Mr. Yang.

The conversation between the two was summarized as follows.

“If it’s true, I’d recommend going to a big hospital. Do you understand what I said?”

“… Yes, sir.”

The kind-hearted teacher seemed to be beating around the bush, but perhaps the large hospital he was referring to was not a mental hospital.

In the end, Vita had no choice but to leave Mr. Yang’s house.

I suddenly feel depressed and sigh involuntarily.

“ha-”

but.

It’s a story that’s hard to believe even if you’re the teacher. But I think you should be thankful that the good teacher tried to believe you.

“Why on earth…?”

Why did I suddenly become a woman one morning?

Besides, there’s no way to go back to how it was before, and now I’m a complete woman.

Vita’s eyes went dark.

If I wake up from sleep, will he come back?

Could it just be a dream?

I made several assumptions, but they didn’t make any sense. In the end, Vita’s choice was already decided. First, she had to tell her family about her changed condition.

I’m a little afraid of my strict father’s reaction.

Well, if a grown son were to say something foolish and become a woman…

‘I really think I might die.’

Vita’s expression went from white to blue repeatedly. But in the end, it was something she couldn’t not do for her parents.

And, as expected, the two of them came back two days later.

***

“What the heck happened?”

As expected from Vita.

His strict father, Maximilian Shamal, had a cold expression on his face.

“That’s right, Father… ”

Vita explained the circumstances of the incident with great nervousness. She had already told him over the phone.

Obtaining a strange medicine. And the reason why I drank it. The changes after taking it and the good doctor’s judgment.

“So to sum it up. You took some strange medicine to beat your rival?”

“… That, yes.”

It’s too ugly to even think about on my own, but I have no choice but to honestly confess it to my parents who gave birth to me.

My father clicked his tongue.

“You reap what you sow.”

“… Yes. I know.”

“It’s a good thing it’s vacation. If it were the middle of the semester, what would have happened?”

Vita also admitted it. Perhaps this change was the price of a momentary, blinded by a desire to win and making a mistake.

But really.

I wanted to beat him. I wanted to do it so badly that I had to fight him unfairly.

Vita lowered her head slightly, feeling embarrassed for no reason.

My heart is filled with melancholy because even the small hands that I see are not adapting.

“Stop it, honey.”

Fortunately, his mother, Emma Shamal, is always on her son’s side.

“Why are you so discouraged when you are already in the most distressed state? In a way, a beautiful daughter has come to us. It’s not a bad thing.”

What is this, am I mistaken?

My mother, with her curly brown hair and kind face, looked in a good mood.

“Don’t worry, Vita. Your parents always wanted a daughter too.”

“… What are you talking about?”

The father who rebels.

“Honestly, you’re fine too.”

“Huh? Me?! What the hell are you talking about? Did I eat something wrong this morning?”

“We ate together. When did it become okay to turn into a daughter?”

“Oh, this guy…?”

A sudden fight between a married couple.

His father, Maximilian Shamal, coughed in vain, his face slightly reddening.

Vita was slightly embarrassed.

What is this conversation?

Of course, I don’t know English, but I feel a little relieved that the atmosphere is better than I thought. The two of them are probably trying to comfort me. They must be disappointed that their son has turned out like this.

“Thank you, Mom. And of course, Dad.”

When Vita, whose heart was touched, said those words, her mother laughed heartily.

“Oh my, really. Even your voice is pretty.”

“Hey, master. Stop talking nonsense. Just take it.”

Vita accepted the envelope her father handed her. Inside the envelope was a new ID card.

“Bianca… Shamal… ?”

“Anyway, since it has come to this, I need to adapt properly.”

Because his father is always very well-prepared.

“I also brought some clothes.”

Then, a large number of women’s clothes pour out of the bag.

‘… When did you get these clothes?’

It’s such an absurd amount that it makes you wonder if it was prepared in advance.

“Ah, thank you… ”

Should I say thank you? My head is in confusion.

Actually, Vita doesn’t know. His parents were whispering to each other while looking at Vita’s bewildered expression.

-I like the shape.

-You chose it yourself.

-Ahem, well… I guess I can choose.

-You said you wanted a daughter, but it wasn’t anything special…

-Look, ma’am. When was that?

By the way, there are four sons in Vita’s family.

So, definitely in the past. This odd couple tried their best to have a cute daughter, but before they knew it, they had four sons. That’s the sad story.

It was certainly unexpected that that one-time wish would now come true in a rather strange way.

Of course, thanks to the parents who were very worried about their child, Vita received a comprehensive checkup that afternoon.

[There is no problem.]

She is healthy and has a perfect body.

When the final verdict came down from the big hospital, Vita was devastated by those words, but it was an irreversible reality.

There were some ups and downs, but somehow everything was resolved.

He said it was okay for me to transfer schools, and that my mother would have to stay here with me for the time being.

Vita firmly rejected her parents’ suggestion.

[No, it’s okay.]

I understand all your concerns, but I still plan on continuing to attend this academy.

Transferring schools just because you turned into a girl? You sound like a total loser.

Because I don’t think so.

[Anyway, Vita. Now that you’ve turned into a woman, be more careful about how you behave.]

[If you ever have any difficulties, always contact your mom!]

After much persuasion, his parents returned. They are the ones who respect their children’s wishes.

Deep in the night, Vita lay alone in bed and thought.

Well, what can I say? It was easier than I expected.

‘I thought I was going to get in big trouble.’

Well, what can I say? It was easier than I expected. To the point of being bewildering.

In the first place, the two of them were just pretending to be okay out of consideration for themselves. I really don’t think my parents would be happy that I’ve changed like this.

‘Oh, right…’

Then Vita suddenly remembered something she had forgotten.

Before you know it, it’s the day of the match that you and your opponent promised each other.

That time is just around the corner.

***

A new day has dawned.

The St. Antiope Academy is structured as three different dormitories.

When new students first enroll, they take an aptitude test.

Then, each person is assigned a dormitory that suits their personality.

Reindeer, a symbol of courage and passion with a reindeer pattern.

This is the dormitory where Vita Shamal belongs, and most of the students with rich sensibilities belong here. It is a place with a strong tendency toward liberal arts such as pure literature and social studies.

Second, Libra.

The symbol of the Libra. A dormitory for eccentric students whose motto is intelligence and exploration. The students here all have eccentric personalities, and most of them have a scientific bent, enjoying technology or magic.

And the last one is the Ouroboros of freedom and infinity.

The symbol of this dorm is a coiled black serpent, and Ouroboros is the noisiest of the three dorms.

At the very edge of the academy, fist fights between students are not uncommon.

Owners of free spirits.

To put it positively, yes, but to put it negatively, there were quite a few swindlers.

But there was someone who put an end to this world of chaos and the law of the jungle.

It’s none other than ‘Carlyle Schultz’.

“You said you never lost?”

“Oh, that guy…?”

There is a rumor that he has defeated those who have tried to provoke him.

It was only a week after ‘that guy’ transferred to the school.

So, that guy. There were many other reasons why Carlyle Schultz was a fraud.

Top performer from the previous year.

Vita Shamal, who had been ranked first for years in the academy’s comprehensive evaluation, was pushed down to second place.

“So you’re a fly and you’re also good at studying!”

“Isn’t it really cool…?”

A person who is being looked at by the school girls who are making a fuss.

Is this the image of a ‘bad boy’ that women often talk about?

Gray hair and golden eyes.

At first glance, the eyes are languidly closed, as if they are bored with waiting, giving off the feeling of a black panther.

His tall, handsome appearance and solid physique are enough to evoke elasticity.

Carlyle Schultz was standing leaning against the tree under the tree.

Why are you doing this?

Well, well.

Because later on, I have to have a match with a passionate boy who is either a vitamin or something. That must be the only reason.

“Gyaak-! Carlyle!”

There were many onlookers.

It’s vacation now, but it’s such an interesting incident.

Groan- Groan-

Carlyle Schultz was really, really popular. He was used to all this attention and attention, he was sick of it.

But why on earth does the other person not come?

“Did he run away?”

“Hey, no way.”

The murmurings are growing louder.

When Carlyle, who was frowning, slowly opened his eyes.

When so many students are waiting for just one person.

“Hey, let’s go-!”

Suddenly, a soprano’s high notes echoed through the large open space.
