Chapter 1

If only I had stopped then...

Even though I wanted to eat the apple, there was no way a chubby person like me could climb the tree.

Despite thinking this, it was already too late, and I fell from the tree to the ground.

Moreover, I fell headfirst.

I lost consciousness before I could even feel the pain, and I was carried into the house by the servants.

I woke up exactly one day later.

"Are you okay, Kururi?"

Peering at me with a worried look was my mother, Ice Heran. She must have been quite worried about me falling headfirst, as it seems she took care of me.

However, that wasn't the main issue now.

Perhaps due to the strong impact to my head, I was regaining my memories from my previous life.

In my previous life, I was a student, but my memory was erased after a car accident.

Ah, I must have died in that accident, and this Kururi Heran is my current incarnation.

I am 12 years old, a young noble who has been pampered, resulting in a clean, chubby physique.

Fortunately, I have good facial features, so I could probably look good if I lost some weight.

A wealthy family, blessed potential—this seemed like a lucky reincarnation. However, I recognized the name "Kururi Heran" from my previous life.

"Fantasy Academy" was the simulation RPG I was deeply engrossed in during my previous life.

The female protagonist falls in love while deepening her relationships with royalty and influential nobles.

The main story revolves around rivals who meddle and make her life difficult. There were also battles and character development, which is why I, as a male, was also completely hooked.

It depicted the success story of a commoner protagonist, but no matter what ending I got, "Kururi Heran" always appeared.

The ending always showed the future lives of the protagonist and the rival noble daughter.

Most of the time, after a happy future for the protagonist, the ending would depict Kururi Heran and the rival noble daughter working as poor farmers.

And this character, Kururi Heran, only appeared once in the game.

A single scene where he shovels food like a pig in the cafeteria, and the rival noble daughter says, "Gross."

Despite being depicted only once, he is somehow shown to have fallen into ruin along with the villainous noble daughter.

With no detailed explanation at all!

It can only be described as the developers' bullying, the way Kururi Heran was used so carelessly.

I had seen the poor Kururi Heran so many times.

The face I saw in the mirror was undoubtedly the Kururi Heran from "Fantasy Academy."

"What a mess."

Born into a noble family, yet the only path for me is an inexplicable downfall.
