I’ve Been Reincarnated as a Villainous Aristocrat Who Tries To Steal Women From the Protagonist in an Erotic Fantasy Novel, and I’m Trying To Live an Honest Life, but I Steals Every Single Woman From the Protagonist. Why! - Chapter 7

In the blink of an eye, it was the day of the entrance ceremony for the School of Magic and Witchcraft.

“It’s too depressing…”

I am in the royal capital of the Kingdom of Goetaniga.

From here, a carriage leaves for the Ain School of Magic and Witchcraft.

“Marcoy-sama. Is the academy located in the royal capital?”

Ariadne, the maid and one of the heroines, asks me.

“No, it’s on a place called [Gakuenjima].”

“[Gakuenjima]…?”

“Oh. It is a large island in the northwestern part of the continent. It can only be reached by a special unicorn-drawn carriage that leaves from the royal capital. That’s where the Ain Academy of Witchcraft and Wizardry is located.”

“I see! Wow, Marcoy-sama is very knowledgeable! And you have special admission to the academy!”

It’s not erudite, or anyone who read the original story would know that.

But this… makes me nervous.

I’m going to the main stage of My heart from now on.

At all costs I don’t want to be ruined.

I was forced to go to the stage of the main story in waves.

But! There is still a way for me to survive.

That’s… not to get involved with the mainline characters!

In the main story of My Heart, Harris interacts with various heroines.

There are two main heroines in particular.

Do not get involved with the main heroines with whom Harris constantly interacts.

Because that would mean getting involved with Harris.

“First, stay away from danger…”

Now, the students ride in a carriage to the school island.

In other words, the carriage ride may inevitably lead to meeting a character from the main story.

Hence…

I slowly back away from the carriage stand.

“Well, Marcoy-sama? Where are you going? Everyone’s on their way to the carriage stand.”

“I have to go to the bathroom.”

“Then I’m going, too!”

“Oh, you know what? You go ahead and get in the carriage. I’m… yes. I’ll take the next one.”

The carriages will be leaving soon.

Moreover, this is the only coach going to the school that day.

There is no such thing as a next… but Aria doesn’t know that.

“Also there’s no bathroom in the carriage.”

“If so, I too…”

“I can’t get anything out if I’m rushed. Come on, get in.”

Ariadne was grudgingly going to the carriage stand.

All right. Now all I have to do is head to the school island [That way] after the carriage departs.

“In a few moments, the carriage to Ain Academy of Magic and Witchcraft will depart. Students must not miss it by any means. I repeat…”

Well, let’s drink some tea and kill some time until the carriage leaves…

That’s when I was thinking.

I walked against the flow of the students, and I guess that’s why…

Thud!

“Cha!”

Crashing! I bumped into someone.

“Oh, hey… are you okay?”

The woman I bumped into… I recognized her!

Fluffy chestnut hair, a few freckles prominent on her nose.

Well, there’s no mistaking… it!

“Roy Withers!”

Roy. She is one of the main heroines of My Heart!

She’s the main character in Harris’s school life, the one who’s closest to him and his best friend!

“I’m sorry… I’m sorry… I’m so screwed up…”

Roy’s baggage is scattered around.

It seems that she dropped the trunk she was carrying in the collision.

“I’m sorry too. I’ll help you pick up your stuff.”

“No, no! Oh, I’m… not worth your help…”

The original Roy was a bit of a negative character.

The Withers family is one of the traditional wizard families.

They have produced many talented wizards.

Roy’s older brothers and sisters are especially good wizards, and she compares herself to them and lacks self-confidence.

“Because it’s okay, see.”

“What? All that scattered luggage is already gathered! How!?”

I had used a Body Enhancement to strengthen my body and collected them in a jiffy.

“Yes. Are you hurt anywhere?”

“Oh, yes… I’m fine…”

“Good. The carriage hasn’t left yet. You’d better get on the carriage as soon as possible.”

[Translation] I don’t want to have anything to do with you, so get the hell out of my life.

“Ah!”

“What’s wrong?”

Roy had a blue face and raised her voice.

“Oh, Skinny is…”

“Yes? Skinny is… Oh! That hamster familiar?”

Roy has a hamster familiar called Skinny.

This guy is involved in the main story… Oh, shoot!

“What? How do you know… Skinny is a hamster…?”

That’s right! Oh shoot! I just slipped up.

That’s right, how would anyone but her know that there is a hamster familiar!

“Oh, let’s see… look! That! That basket!”

Among Roy’s belongings was a basket with iron bars.

It had a nameplate that said “Skinny’s”.

“Eh, but…”

“Agh! I’m going to find Skinny! So you get in the carriage!”

“What? What?”

“Just get in the carriage! Okay?”

I use my body enhancements to get away from Roy.

Damn… I almost made a mistake again.

It seems that the forces of fate are strong enough to keep the story going the way it was written.

I hid in a back alley and took a breather.

“I’m in trouble, really…”

Now. Skinny. Roy got that old hamster… as a hand-me-down from her older siblings.

But the hamster has an important setting that puts Harris and his friends in trouble…

It is a development that is revealed in the third volume of the original story.

In other words, it takes place in the future.

“Not that it’s any of my business what happens to Harris… but that hamster is going to lead to Noir’s resurrection.”

Noir, the great wizard of darkness.

My Heart’s main antagonist.

Because of his resurrection in the middle of the original story, the world became a disaster and many people died.

Among them, Marcoy also dies…

In other words.

“Noir’s resurrection must be prevented. One of the best ways to trigger that is to… crush Skinny.”

It’s just a means of self-preservation.

It’s not about helping Harris.

“Milz.”

“What is it?”

A naked little girl appears in front of me.

This is Milz. This is the will that resides in the great sage’s red stone, which is in my left eye.

I remember that the Great Sage’s Red Stone has a skill called [Searching for Enemies].

This red stone has an optional skill attached to it other than its nearly infinite magical power.

Searching for enemies is a skill that detects enemies… in the vicinity, or more specifically, magical power.

“Run a search along the area with a surrounding map.”

“Got it!”

A map of the area appears in my vision.

My left eye is red stone, so this is how it appears. It looks like a car navigation screen.

There are several arrows, and this is the owner of the magic power. It’s the same as in the anime.

“Well… and…”

I watch the arrow movement and discover where the [Enemy] is.

I jump up with my body reinforcement and head through the roof to get to that guy.

At the back of an alley a short distance away.

“Don’t move, traitor [Peter Petensy]. If you move… I will kill you.”

I said to the hamster crawling on the ground, pointing my cane at him.
