It Seems I've Been Reincarnated As A Mob Character In An Otome Game World, But The Prince Dropped Out Before It Even Started - Episode 6

I, Alexis Irving, who had been reincarnated into the world of an otome game.

Actually, before enrolling in the Romancia Academy, which is the setting for the game, I made a striking debut at a brothel.

My adoptive father says so. He says to at least have knowledge.

Someone like me, if I get blinded by pleasure, I’m sure I’ll ruin myself.

The possibility of it falling apart cannot be denied.

If a virgin learns the pleasure of sex, they will keep thrusting incessantly, just like it was written in the R-rated web novel from my past life!

Not just between men, but also between women and between men and women.

To avoid falling for a honey trap, I was shown various tricks and sexual maneuvers.

It was incredibly vivid.

“So, I have knowledge.”

Neither men nor women have actually experienced it, though.

“That’s good to hear.”

“Huh?”

No, that’s not what I meant, Hugh clears his throat.

I feel like I’ve been deceived somehow, but…

“So, what did you think of the play after actually seeing it?”

You at least reacted, right? Even if it didn’t go all the way, you at least let it happen, right?

Bringing his grinning face closer and asking in a low voice, I also respond in a low voice to Hugh, without changing my expression.

“Before observing the play, we had a study session. About STDs and the fate of those who got hooked.”

That’s why I couldn’t get into it at all…

“Don’t worry about it.”

Absolutely!

It was supposed to be an otome game, but it’s strangely realistic.

In the anime, the protagonist’s surroundings were all understanding people in a kind world… Ah, I guess it’s unavoidable if they are mobs unrelated to the story.

So, that’s why I’m still a virgin even after being reborn. I’m too scared of honey traps and STDs to even consider taking up any offers.

Even mob characters get invited sometimes. You know, it’s that age when boys are all about their desires.

Because it’s a school that only nobles attend, all the female students must remain pure.

Premarital sex is out of the question.

The boys’ dormitory isn’t that strict, so many of them escape from the girls-only dormitory and run to the capital at night, or go out on their days off.

Even so, it seems I can’t make it in time; as a low-ranking noble, I’m invited by someone of the same sex. Apparently, while impure relationships with the opposite sex are bad, same-sex relationships are considered safe.

Where have all the otome games gone?

Since I’m known as the First Prince’s attendant, the only ones who approach me are either honey traps or complete fools.

If approached, report to your comrades immediately. Escape quietly.

If force is used, I’ll escape boldly. STDs are scary.

While I was mumbling “hmm,” my colleague, who sometimes goes out on his nights off, scratched his head.

“Ah… just so you know, Alexis.”

Cedi-sama doesn’t have a sexually transmitted disease.

What’s wrong all of a sudden?

I understand that.

If it’s a match for the prince, they would surely be someone whose health has been properly checked and who is of good character.

Lord Cedi has a bad reputation spread by the Empress, but in reality, he has never caused any trouble in the pleasure district.

Almost every night, I sleep soundly in my dorm room.

“Actually, Lord Cedi is a devoted person, so he is not being played with at all. Remember this, it’s important.”

And we’re fine too, the servants. There’s no fool who doesn’t know how to defend themselves.

If it’s contact infection through bodily fluids, as long as the other person isn’t infected, you won’t catch it no matter how much you do it, and I take preventive and contraceptive pills every time.

Otome game, yay!

Why am I being told about my colleagues’ adult private lives?!

I don’t want to hear it.

Information sharing might be necessary, but I don’t want to hear about your heroic tales just like that!

Hugh is grinning at me as I show my reluctance.

Feeling an additional presence of teasing, I tried to retreat from the bed, but I stopped in my tracks at the electronic sound that echoed through the bedroom.

It’s a signal that the elevator is starting to move.

The world of this otome game is set in a time close to modern civilization, so elevators exist.

There are several in the student dormitory as well.

However, the sound that echoed came from the elevator secretly installed in the closet room of this special room used by the royal family.

An elevator whose existence is known only to those involved.

Connecting the special room on the top floor of the building to the basement that doesn’t officially exist in the dormitory.

From the basement, there is a passage that leads to the palace adjacent to the academy. It is a secret escape route that only the royal family can use.

“Has Lady Cedi returned?”

“I heard you were supposed to be stationed at the palace for a while longer.”

“Could it be that he unexpectedly came back to eat Alexis’s food?”

I worry about that too. Whether you’re eating food that is actually “edible.”

Since the palace is under the control of the legitimate queen, they can attack Prince Cedric without restraint.

It seems that it’s common for poison to be slipped into the food. Apparently, it was so bad that the person said they could finally take a breather after entering the dormitory…

Leaving the actor playing the prince, Hugh, in bed, I move to the front of the closet room.

The electronic sound announcing the arrival of the elevator echoed, and the sliding door installed on the bedroom wall opened.

A beautiful young man with black hair surrounded by his colleagues’ bodyguards appears.

Prince Cedric Cunningham the First. My lord whom I serve.

A noble being with hair the same wet feather color as my late mother and eyes that hold the royal gold.

A calm demeanor and composure that seem almost cold. Despite being only eighteen years old, there is a dignity and grace that makes them appear older.

The first prince in the anime was a self-important prince who looked good with a twisted smile on his lips.

In this world, Lady Cedi is completely different.

First, don’t show a smile.

During the meeting in the student council room the other day, the younger prince and the villainous noble lady must have been surprised.

Probably more than the content of his words, it was the smile he showed for the first time.

Even to his half-brother, who is a blood relative, and to his school friends who were potential future aides, Cedi-sama hardly ever smiles.

He is called things like “Doll Prince” or “Cold Prince” behind his back.

But for us, the loyal servants, there are times when he smiles at us in private spaces.

Even now, reflecting my welcoming figure in her golden eyes, she slightly lifts the corners of her thin lips upwards――.

Cedi-sama, who had taken a few steps forward, gently embraced me.

Hug… hug?!
