Chapter 1
“When I woke up, I had been reincarnated into another world!”
That happened five years ago.
By now, the sight before me has become completely normal.
Before I was reincarnated, I was a university student in Japan. Then, on my way home from a night shift job, some incomprehensible lunatic carrying a knife stabbed me from behind. I don’t remember anything after that.
I probably died there.
Well, my parents never treated me very well anyway, so honestly, I’m glad I was reincarnated.
I was a girl in my previous life, so I’m relieved that I’m a girl again in this one.
When I first woke up, I panicked because I was surrounded by a bunch of ridiculously beautiful people. But maybe that’s just average-looking in this world.
The reason I say “maybe” is because I’ve never once left this mansion, so I have no way of knowing.
Apparently, this body is much frailer than I thought it was. Haha…
No, seriously, it’s not something to laugh about…
Right?
But if I don’t laugh, I won’t be able to cope!
I’ve tried to escape about ten times in the past.
Naturally! There are so many things I wanted to do after being reincarnated!
I was full of determination, but…
My very first obstacle was that I didn’t even have enough stamina to reach the door.
…
…
…
It was catastrophically bad!
Who would expect to be this sickly?!
The moment I stood up and tried to walk to the door, I somehow ended up collapsing onto the floor.
Then I tried to stand up again—but couldn’t.
After spending some time like that, a terrible chill started running through my body, and just when I was about to pass out, my older brothers happened to arrive.
They captured me and carried me straight back to bed.
And then they scolded me relentlessly.
At the time, my brothers were so terrifying that I actually burst into tears.
But seriously, they were scary!
Every single one of them was smiling, but their smiles were completely black and menacing!
After that, I ended up suffering from a lingering cold for quite a while.
Since that incident, everyone’s surveillance became much stricter, making escape impossible.
So I behaved myself for a while.
But after three weeks, despite having tearfully promised I would never do it again, I tried the exact same thing once more.
Naturally, my brothers became even angrier than before.
As a result…
I lost all my alone time.
Someone was always watching me from then on.
Why…
Why can’t I go outside…?
I want to soar through the sky like those birds…
As I was getting emotional over that, I felt someone’s gaze beside me.
“U-Um, Yu-brother? You don’t have to stare at me so intensely, you know?”
“No, that’s not okay! Every time you say you’re fine, you go and do something! And even when you’re feeling sick, you never realize it yourself, so someone has to keep an eye on you!”
Gulp.
As expected of my twin brother.
He’s especially sensitive to things like that.
Still…
In my previous life, nobody worried about me this much even when I was sick.
So honestly, I’m not quite sure how I’m supposed to react.
“Yu-brother, thank you for worrying about me.”
“Of course I worry! We’ve been together since before we were born! There are hardly any things about you that I don’t know!”
T-That’s true.
In fact, it’s so true that he can even see right through my plans to escape.
Terrifying.
“Yu-brother, I kind of want to be alone for a little while.”
“I already told you, no! Why won’t you ever listen to your big brother?”
Because I have memories from my previous life, and I want to live a cheat-powered slow life while petting fluffy animals all day!!
As if I could actually say that!!!
Looks like I’ll have to use that technique.
“Y-Yuris-brother… Sole wants to go on her very first outing with Yuris-brother! Is that not allowed…?” I asked with watery eyes, looking up at him.
“Ugh… W-Well… Um…”
He wavered visibly.
“I’ll go ask Mother and the others, so can you wait here?”
“Yes!”
“Then stay put and behave yourself, Sole!”
Click.
The door closed.
Sigh…
Is my face really that powerful?
For some reason, whenever I use this creepy way of speaking, look up at people with teary eyes, and act pitiful, my family grants almost anything I ask for.
Maybe it’s because I’m so embarrassing to look at that they just want it to stop?
My whole family is absurdly beautiful, so I thought I’d inherited those genes too…
Sigh…
Well, whatever!
If I get permission, I’m going to enjoy my cheat-filled slow life and spend all my time cuddling fluffy animals! ♪
