《Reincarnated into the Otome Game as the Princess Villainess?!》Twenty-three: The return of the snake
Advertisement
It took some time to get used to. Being a fairy and all was kind of strange, especially learning to fly. But it didn't seem as shocking as I had originally thought and I adapted to it rather easily. Though I'm still confused on how this happened.
On that note, the Queen has not yet contacted me like the fairy once said.
Huh.
It had at first been strange to constantly switch between forms but now it was normal. For school, I would go in my human body while when I trained, it would be my real (?) form as a fairy.
When Big Brother and Etti had first found out about this, they were shocked. Big Brother had even fainted from shock while Etti had just sat in his low chair—but his height made it look like he was on Big Brother's throne—seemingly dazed.
I haven't even told Father or Lucian about it yet.
I knew there were a few problems in Argonda concerning that snake and that Lucian was about to take his exams. It wasn't the time to distract them. If I did, it would come with great repercussions.
Repercussions that they couldn't deal with.
Actually, Father had sent me a letter. He had written the norm before adding haphazardly onto the end that the witch and himself were coming to visit Lucian and I. Obviously I was overjoyed about Father's presence but no so much about the snake's.
She was mad.
At me.
And as my step-mother, the world deemed it okay to discipline me. I knew Father could not say anything, she had the Council as her back up. Even the people were more cautious of her presence because of this, not truly rebelling against her yet.
It certainly wasn't hidden that the only Queen of their hearts was my mother Ambrosine—a goddess in their hearts as I've been told. She was kind and virtuous, putting the people's needs before her own.

And to them and my family—that snake could never compare. She put herself above everyone, spending as much of the kingdom's money as she could. The commoners were like dirt in her eyes, unworthy of her attention and love. She was greedy and unkind as well as cruel to those who did not obey.
Her reputation had become even worse when I had been locked away from the public. The people did not believe her excuses of my 'fragile body' and caused many riots to arise. But she never wavered, instead deciding to continue her atrocious actions.
And now, she was coming to my Academy. With Scorpio and Aries here and with their power, she was undoubtedly going to try and take them. But I knew that they wouldn't let her—especially Scorpio.
There was also Quel's little squirrel—Aerah. He was rather attached to me and often would stay away from his contracted person to come stay with me. And with that adorable blood red squirrel came the twins—mostly Quel.
Over time, we had become close friends. He avoided any inappropriate actions with me after my transformation but still held his tongue was still poisonous to many and he was still arrogant beyond compare.
The heroine certainly wasn't happy when her harem members stopped talking to her.
At first, I tried to avoid them but we became friends so I thought 'Hey, why would a friend kill another friend?' and accepted him. The twins then ditched Crystal. She had lost quite a few I had noticed, Arthur, Caspian and now the twins.
The other members were just silent and ignored her. It was similar in the game, she only became the real centre of their attention after her display of power in the annual competition where she destroyed her opponents. And then to show good will, healed them.

I really despise that sort of person. Doing things only for their personal gain, it was disgusting.
She reminded me of the snake, they both would get along very very well with their matching personalities.
Back to the topic at hand, Father and she were meant to visiting during one of the parent days the Academy held a couple times per year. Previously, he had been much too busy to come and attend and that snake was sure to never come.
She knew Lucian and I both despised her from the bottom of our hearts. Even though he had never known Mother—he trusted Father and I's kind words about her and considered her his real adoptive mother.
He also agreed that the snake could never compare to Mother.
Actually, she couldn't even compare to Satan himself when it comes to kindness. She was worse than a devil, I bet even the devil would feel some remorse towards the people. Actually, she was probably Satan. But then again, she had never been an angel so it wasn't possible.
The day had arrived and it wasn't just my Father and his evil wife coming, Big Brother and Etti had also joined. Unfortunately, the Empress had somehow managed to tag along.
When people saw them, they were shocked. Even many nobles wouldn't dare of even seeing the Empress' face let alone the Emperor's! Big Brother was known to stay away from public appearances, instead leaving them to others while he made all the decisions.
And the Empire had flourished under his careful hands.
Etti was also widely known. Somehow—and god knows how—people recognised him. Might be the tall height and imposing aura.
And the Empress—well she just made it obvious. She had certainly not tried to hide her status, deciding to wear extravagant clothes that seemed appropriate to meet the gods in. They also seemed to be made to accentuate her lovely natural features.
Overall, she looked a degree lower than a fairy.
Her outfit was traditional and I assumed she was wearing it to show her loyalty to the country's religion and their past.
I, on the other hand, was wearing a much simpler outfit, chosen by Aries and Scorpio. I really couldn't understand where their fashion style came from. It was better than an average person's one too.
They had chosen a Snow White styled outfit—not even Arty knows why.
We were all sitting and having tea—the Empress obviously under an umbrella to shield her 'delicate' skin—when I heard the venomous voice of my most hated woman.
"We're here darling."

Living as a Demon
Jonathan was living the life of a normal human male in modern-day society, until he was rudely awakened one night by a summoning circle that ripped him out of his reality and dumped him into a new world filled with magic, demons, and…mouthy young orphan girls?! Now Jonathan must navigate the trials of playing guardian to a preteen, learning to unlock his inner demon, and somehow managing to find a dang pair of pants! Welcome! I'm E.O. Tenkey; thank you for considering Living as a Demon, my third released work here on Royal Road (following Not a Manga and Mr. Familiar)! Let's set some expectations, shall we? • Not much hard profanity (chapter 1 is the exception!)• Human MC! Our protagonist is a bona fide homo sapiens. Which is not to say there won't be demons, demonic powers, and what-have-you, but this isn't some grimdark exploration of the life and times of a nihilistic, amoral killing machine.• Slice of life. My previous works always ended up there, so might as well get ahead of the curve!• Weekly updates, and a completed story: I will post a single chapter per week on Wednesdays until the story is complete (extra chapters are rare, but do happen).
