I Was Reincarnated as the Most Wicked Aristocrat Who Rules Over the Kingdom’s Darkness in an R-18 Eroge, but I Don’t Like Abnormal Situations, so I Tried to Live a Normal and Peaceful Life, but I’m Somehow in the Same Situation as the Original Scenario - Chapter 5 - The Main Heroine, Elise Lucifor

Chapter 5 – The Main Heroine, Elise Lucifor

After leading his relatives to a tragic end in the beginning, Alvart enrolls in the academy.

From then on, he rapes the heroine, several other female students, and other beautiful characters as he pleases…

That’s the outline of the scenario in The Revenge of the Masked Demon and the Noble Slave.

However, the scenario completely fell apart early on, and there were many unknowns as to how it would develop from there.

…Come to think of it, the Administrator said something about the settings will change accordingly if the scenario is destroyed.

I didn’t take it seriously at the time, but I see…

It seems I had underestimated the world’s power to correct itself a little.

A few days after I had decided to enroll in the academy, someone claiming to be affiliated with the academy appeared at my house…

In the mansion’s courtyard, various data were measured.

Apparently, it was a measure to determine my rank within the school…

I was not familiar with such a setting.

At the very least, the original work doesn’t seem to have had any setting like that for a school supernatural battle.

…It seems this world has given up on the rape theme and is now steering towards a completely different genre.

But that doesn’t matter to me.

“Now, we will measure your magical power.”

I’ll do what I have to do. That’s all there is to it.

“Lumiere-sama’s magical power is exceptional, both in offense and defense. As for Alvart-sama… it seems to lean slightly towards defense…”

In the data measurement, I aimed for perfect mediocrity.

I don’t intend to be an honor student, but I don’t intend to be a poor student either.

In the first place, mob characters are essentially the middle class.

Top or bottom tier grades are out of the question.

That’s why——

“Lumière-sama is quite skilled in swordsmanship as well.”

“And Alvart-sama is… Well, it’s pretty good.”

——By aiming for mediocrity, I’ll neither be looked down upon nor praised.

Later, a notice arrived at the mansion, stating the following results.

Grade rank: 50th.

School rank: 148th.

Simply put, I’m in the middle tier.

It’s good news for me, but it’s not good news for my parents.

I expected them to say something nasty, but…

“Indeed, if you’re to be part of the group, you should be a shadow… Truly, just as the saying goes.”

“As expected of you.”

These two have been like this ever since that night.

They must be really scared of me now that I’ve awakened my powers.

They don’t have to flatter me so much, I have no intention of laying a hand on them anymore.

…However, even more unsettling than my parents is my younger sister, Lumiere.

“Ah, Ni-Nii-sama. Good morning.”

She’s like a completely different person.

The morning greetings I knew from her were usually, “Oh, Nii-sama? You seem even more depressed than yesterday. Is something wrong?”

After that, she would grin maliciously, her beautiful face twisting, and whenever she passed by me, she would punch me in the stomach.

…This is a bit too much of a change, no matter how I look at it.

On the surface, she seems completely reformed, but I won’t be fooled.

She’s probably waiting for the right opportunity to stab me.

And not just inside the mansion…but probably also in the academy.

As Lumiere is my twin sister, there is no age difference between us. That’s why we will be enrolling as classmates.

Life at the academy might turn out to be a bit thrilling.

…Now then.

The preliminary rank measurements are over, and we’ve been issued uniforms and other equipment.

Finally, the day of Lumiere and I set off on our journey had arrived.

The academy in question was a boarding school, and we would be living in the dorms until the completion of our three-year course of study.

I didn’t particularly mind leaving my parents.

However…

“Farewell, Divine Ancestor.”

“We look forward to the moment your name becomes known to the world.”

Their parting greeting somehow bothered me.

No, don’t mind it. It’s probably just my imagination.

Those two continued to curry favor until the very end. That must be all there is to it.

That doesn’t matter right now. What matters more is——

“Stares~~~”

My sister’s gaze is really intense.

“Stares~~~”

We’re heading to our destination, the royal capital, by carriage, but Lumiere and I are the only ones in the carriage.

“Stares~~~”

She’s been like this ever since the start of our journey.

She’s sitting comfortably in the seat opposite me, staring right at me the whole time.

And without blinking at that too.

She seems to be trying not to miss even a moment’s opportunity.

It’s oddly annoying to have her realize that I’m bothered, so I continue to completely ignore her gaze.

Like that, we continued on our uncomfortable journey, and finally——

——We arrived at the Royal Academy for Nobles.

As the name suggests, this school is primarily for the sons and daughters of nobles, so there are no commoner students.

The only exceptions are the children of wealthy commoners who have accumulated significant wealth and influence——only the offspring of wealthy families are allowed to enroll.

To be honest, I didn’t want to go to such a pretentious school.

A place where commoners would go would be best, but if the eldest son of a Marquis attended such a school, I would certainly stand out.

Even if I lied about my origins, I would surely be found out somehow and everything would be back to square one.

My enemy is the world’s corrective power.

If I wanted to fight against it, I have no choice but to accept enrollment in the Royal Academy for Nobles.

I think this is probably the place where I can live the best life possible.

“…The world truly does not go as one wishes.”

I muttered to myself as I passed through the school gates with Lumiere.

As expected of a school for nobles, even the gate’s exterior was extremely extravagant.

Inside, the place has been designed to resemble an exhibition… it feels like a bit of an overdone bourgeoisie taste.

I guess this will be my main base of operations from today.

I feel quite depressed.

After all, those girls are here too.

But, as long as I don’t do anything foolish like provoking them, there won’t be any problems——

“Hey, you! Stop right there!”

——Just when I thought that there would be no problem, it happened.

I stopped as I was told, and then…

I looked behind me.

There stood a pair of a boy and a girl.

The one who had called me out was the black-haired girl standing on the left.

She had the impression of a pure and beautiful warrior girl.

She puffed out her ample chest and glared at me,

“You are the eldest son of the Zesphilia family, Alvart Zesphilia, aren’t you?!”

…She shouted in a dignified voice, with an unnecessary enthusiasm.

I immediately ended up attracting unnecessary attention.

“Eeh? Did she say Z-Zesphilia?”

“But didn’t I hear the son suffer…demon possession?”

I’m not stupid enough to do anything about my ugly appearance.

I used disguise magic to make it impossible to accurately recognize my disfigured appearance.

All of this was an effort to not stand out.

“He’s from the dark clan…!”

“He looks pretty normal, but…”

“To not even flinch when being glared at by a duke’s daughter…”

Damnit.

I guess I’ve shown no reaction for too long.

But it’s too late to show fear now.

I have no choice but to maintain my current attitude while preparing to deal with the threat to my life.

“Oh, look what I’ve encountered so early after enrolling. Miss Elise, I’m glad to see you’re in a good mood.”

“Do I look like I’m in a good mood right now?!”

The black-haired maiden approached me boldly.

Her name is Elise Lucifor.

She’s the Duke’s daughter——

——And the main heroine in The Revenge of the Masked Demon and the Noble Slave.

T/N: Yes! The pure and beautiful warrior girl type is always the best to break, muehehe
