[ System Initialization ]
[Scenario loading…]
[Please select a special individual in your life.]
[Currently available special individuals for simulation: Baobhan Sith (Fairy Knight Tristan).]
Eikou looked at the special individual listed in the prompt; there was only one option.
“What does ‘special individual’ mean?”
[She will be the female character who is inextricably linked to you in this life simulation.
Once selected, you will be assigned to her class, and your lives will intertwine.
Simply put, you will enter this character’s storyline.]
[And for now, this is the only storyline you can choose.]
“What do you mean?
I’ll be able to enter other characters’ storylines later?”
Eikou had many questions.
But no matter what, there was only this one option before him now.
So, he clicked confirm.
[ Day 1 ]
[Initiating deduction.]
The moment it officially began, Eikou suddenly felt a trance.
Although his body was still in reality, he could observe the life deduction of a parallel world, and text-formed images rushed into his mind like a revolving lantern…
[First day of school.]
[You opened your eyes and realized you forgot to set your alarm, and you were about to miss the opening ceremony.]
[You hurriedly put on your school uniform, carrying your backpack and luggage full of daily necessities, and with the 1000 QP living expenses your parents left you, you rushed to Chaldea Academy.]
[As far as you know, Chaldea Academy is a higher education institution with very strict rules.
Even though most of the Heroic Spirits attending are adults, they must still abide by strict regulations.
Repeated violations and low academic credits will result in expulsion.]
[If you’re caught being late, your student career will probably be over…]
[As you rushed around the street corner, a red-haired girl in a school uniform also happened to turn the same corner from the opposite direction.]
The moment they turned the corner, Eikou caught a glimpse of the girl’s figure.
Hair as red as blood, skin as pale as cold-blooded fairness, and a flowing red skirt beneath her school uniform jacket.
[Just by looking at the girl’s red hair, you already knew this was Baobhan Sith, the class beauty of the Britannia Class at Chaldea Academy, a hot girl with extremely high Appearance but an extremely bad personality.]
“Oh, so this plot is a traditional encounter between me and the heroine, Baobhan Sith?
I’m almost late, turn a corner and meet love, accidentally bumping into the heroine who’s eating bread on her way to school—is this a romantic comedy trope?”
[Pretty much.]
[The two of you collided head-on, and the high heels she was carrying flew out of her arms.]
“Why high heels?
Nobody carries high heels to school, do they?
Do they really need to emphasize her liking for high heels in this situation?”
Eikou could clearly see them collide unprepared.
Baobhan Sith let out a sweet, pained groan, her petite body tilting uncontrollably backward, and the high heels she was holding flew out.
At that moment, Eikou saw two options pop up before his eyes.
[What will you do?]
OptionActionRequirement
[ 1 ]Embrace her to prevent her from getting hurt.(Agility B or higher)
[ 2 ]Run away while she hasn’t clearly seen your face; there’s still time.None
“What kind of chaotic route is option two?
Are you treating me like a hit-and-run driver?”
“What does it mean that the first option requires Agility?” Eiko asked curiously.
[Your life deduction is driven by dice rolls to randomly advance the story.
Key choices require your personal attributes to pass a check for a chance of success.]
[Event success possibilities are divided into: Failure, Critical Failure, Success, Critical Success.]
[Your Agility is B+, so the probability of successfully embracing her is very high.]
“Oh, I see.”
Eikou was now a little excited about this life deduction; it even had random tabletop RPG elements.
He didn’t need to consider the second option at all; he directly chose one.
A die fell before his eyes, and the result was EX.
[You rolled an EX difficulty, far exceeding your personal attributes.]
[ Critical Failure!
]
??
A critical failure right off the bat!
Wait a minute, if the result of failure was just not hugging Baobhan Sith in time, then what kind of bad direction would a “critical failure” take the plot?
Whoosh!
The moment the critical failure was determined, Eikou body moved involuntarily.
In that instant, he neatly dropped his luggage and backpack.
Then, he charged straight past.
[You were as fast as a sharp arrow.]
[However, you completely ignored Baobhan Sith, who was about to fall, and purposefully rushed toward the high heels that were about to hit the ground, sliding past to catch them.]
[You held the high heels in your arms.]
“Why would I hug her high heels?!”
[Because you rolled a critical failure and accidentally mistook the object needing help.]
“How could I accidentally mistake that?
What kind of idiot would mistake shoes for a person?
There has to be a limit to how absurd this gets—”
Before he could finish his sentence, Eikou saw himself in the life simulation, holding the high heels with an anxious expression and crying out.
“Pull yourself together!” He cried out miserably to the broken heel of the shoe, “Achilles, don’t die!
I’ll take you to a doctor right now!”
What the hell is Achilles?!
In your impression, is Achilles’ true form just the heel of a shoe?
And everything else is just superfluous accessories?
Look more at the girl who fell behind you; she’s the one who truly needs help!
Baobhan Sith, whom he had ignored, finally got up, her pale and beautiful face showing pure anger.
“Hey!
What have you scum done?!
How dare you break my high heels!
Those were a gift from my Mother for my enrollment!” The Blood Princess reprimanded fiercely.
Good heavens, her first reaction wasn’t anger at being knocked down, but that her Mother’s high heels were broken by him.
[Baobhan Sith’s fury is about to erupt.
The murderous aura condensed in her grey eyes seems to want to tear you to pieces.]
[If you don’t explain quickly, this relationship might be beyond repair.]
[What is your choice?]
[ 1 ] Explain the situation and soothe her emotions.
(Requires High-Speed Divine Words A or higher)
[ 2 ] “This great one acts with responsibility; it was I, Jason, who did it.
If you want revenge, come find me in the Greek Class; this great one is always ready!”
[ 3 ] Run away.
It seems a very despicable option got mixed in there.
“No, I can’t choose the second one…”
Although he really wanted to try the second option and then watch the fun, doing so might completely sever his connection with Baobhan Sith.
He chose one, and explained the situation properly.
The dice fell again.
[ High-Speed Divine Words: Persuasion Successful.
]
Fortunately, there were no more shenanigans this time; it succeeded properly.
He hadn’t expected High-Speed Divine Words to have such a special use.
[You logically explained the whole story to Baobhan Sith and gently appeased her emotions.]
[Although Baobhan Sith was still a bit angry, she accepted your explanation.]
“So, you mistook my shoes for Achilles, huh?
Well, then there’s nothing to be done.” Baobhan Sith sighed helplessly, her cheeks a little puffed out with annoyance.
Why explain that?
How did you even understand?
Do people here really see Achilles as just a heel?
Both of you, apologize to Achilles immediately!
“Exactly, after all, they look so similar,” The Eikou in the deduction also had a “sodayo” expression.
Baobhan Sith’s light gray eyes scanned him, examining the name and class on his school ID.
“Mochizuki Eiko…” She read the name on the ID, “Are you also a new student in the Britannia Class?”
“Ten times the compensation for a fake.”
“That’s great,” Baobhan Sith’s gaze sharply swept over him, and she revealed her cute fangs with a mischievous smile, “I’m also in the Britannia Class.
I can slowly settle this score with you later.”
After all that, it turns out she still wasn’t planning to forgive him.
That’s fine too; most youth romantic comedies probably start this way, establishing a stable interactive relationship after breaking someone’s belongings.
“More importantly, Miss Baobhan Sith, we’re going to be late.” Eikou picked up his backpack and luggage again, saying somewhat urgently.
“Wah!
It’s all your fault, making us almost late!
What should I do?
If my Mother finds out about this—”
[At this moment, a black luxury car suddenly stopped in front of you.]
[The car window slowly rolled down, and you saw the woman sitting in the driver’s seat.]
[Your first impression of that woman was like a cerulean frosty flower blooming on a snow-capped mountain.
Her appearance was noble and aloof, like a blue-blooded aristocrat from a play, wearing a respectable and elegant black-blue long dress, with her white hair neatly coiled at the back of her head, tied with a slightly cute black bow.]
[Although this woman looked very young, she was much older than you in temperament, sitting in the driver’s seat with an elegant and arrogant queen-like demeanor.]
[That was Baobhan Sith’s Mother, the Queen of the Fairy Kingdom, Morgan.]
[She swept her beautiful blue eyes over you, first sternly scolding Baobhan Sith for being forgetful and oversleeping, causing her to be late, then ordered her to get in the car, immediately driving her to school to catch the opening ceremony.]
[Then, Morgan looked at you.]
“You come up too.” Morgan said indifferently, her voice like a winter breeze rustling wind chimes.
“Okay…
Thank you.” Eikou nodded somewhat reservedly.
“You’re welcome.
Your school ID also says Britannia Class, right?
Then you and my daughter will be classmates from now on.
You should look after her more.”
“Feel honored, Small fry,” Baobhan Sith said proudly, “Not just anyone is qualified to ride in my Mother’s car!
Especially a useless Small fry like you!”
Before Eikou could say anything, Morgan spoke in a serious tone: “Baobhan Sith, is that how you talk to your classmate?
Apologize to him immediately.”
“Okay~ Mother~”
In front of Morgan, Baobhan Sith showed none of her previous arrogant and unruly attitude.
Instead, she was like a well-behaved kitten, agreeing with a spoiled tone.
“I’m sorry, Student Mochizuki~!” She sincerely apologized to him, “I shouldn’t have said you were useless.
Because in this world, even the humblest ant always has one or two strengths.”
“I thank you.”
[You rode in Morgan’s car towards Chaldea Academy.
You finally didn’t have to worry about being late.]
[At this moment, you suddenly realized this was an excellent opportunity to improve your relationship.]
[You were in a relatively enclosed space, which not only brought you closer but also meant she couldn’t leave even if she didn’t want to interact with you.
Her family was even there, so you could gather a lot of information and gossip.]
[You started talking to her.
(High-Speed Divine Words A)]
[…]
[You learned that Morgan does not belong to Chaldea Academy; she is the CEO of the Orkney Group in this city.]
[You learned that Baobhan Sith is Morgan’s adopted daughter.]
[You learned a little more about her.]
[You received a special action round.]
[Two choices lay before Eiko.]
[ 1 ] Share your past experiences and show your interesting side.
(God Slayer B + High-Speed Divine Words A)
[ 2 ] Sit quietly in the car.
Definitely choose the first one!
By the way, why is there a God Slayer judgment?
Is it about telling the story of beating up Gilgamesh back then?
How is that interesting?
It’s simply bullying, isn’t it?
But no matter what, he decided to use this combination skill.
The worst outcome would be a critical failure, probably just getting kicked out by the Mother and daughter.
Eikou had already prepared for the worst.
The two dice landed simultaneously.
Seeing the dice, his heart skipped a beat.
[ God Slayer B…
Critical Success.
]
[ High-Speed Divine Words A…
Critical Success.
]
“Hiss…”
Damn, I’m possessed by the European Emperor!
[You recounted your past interesting stories in a vivid and engaging tone, making her laugh happily.
She hadn’t been this joyful in a long time.]
[Your eloquent speech captivated her heart, and her favorability increased significantly.]
[You can already feel the strong affection.]
The story’s development rapidly moved in the best possible direction.
Is this the power of two consecutive critical successes?
Getting max favorability right at the start, does this count as almost clearing the game?
It’s clearly just the beginning.
However, he looked at the situation inside the car, which was completely different from what the simulation text described.
At this moment, the car had already arrived at the academy gate.
“What?
You hit that Gilgamesh when you were a kid?
How is that story interesting?” Baobhan Sith merely glanced at him listlessly.
Hmph, you’re really reserved, Baobhan Sith.
You’re probably secretly overjoyed inside, aren’t you?
Never mind, I’ll let you be tsundere for a bit longer.
When school starts later, I’ll slowly uncover your true self.
“If you don’t like listening, then forget it…”
Eikou shook his head, looking disdainful of arguing.
Just as he was about to get out of the car with his backpack and luggage, a hand suddenly reached out, holding a phone.
It was Morgan’s hand.
“Huh…?”
Eikou turned his head and saw that the Fairy Queen’s beautiful face was slightly flushed, showing a girlish shyness and anticipation.
“Student…
could you give me your contact information?”
“???”
What’s going on?!
I knew why Baobhan Sith’s acting was so realistic; it turns out those two critical successes were all attributed to you!
So it was you who liked me!
