Dante Bearelf

I woke up in a white and minimalist room with bright details that added a touch of elegance. The blonde woman next to me seemed to know me, but I had no idea who she was.

Where am I? Is this the afterlife?

I looked to my left and saw a blonde girl with crimson eyes, dressed in a maid uniform, holding my hand tightly.

And tears slowly streaming down her beautiful face.

Who is she?

"Mr. Dante, thank God you're alive. I was worried about you," she said with tears in her eyes.

"Dante... Mr.? Hmm, do I know you?"

I was very confused when I heard that name, who is Dante?

"...This can't be, you can't have forgotten my name, or worse, you can't have forgotten me!"

"..?"

Seeing my confusion, she covered her mouth with her hand and looked at me silently.

Then she stood up, put her hand on her cheek, and started pacing in circles, muttering something I couldn't understand... After a few seconds, Eileen climbed onto me, shaking my body.

My head hurts...

I remember everything.

I recall the details of what happened.

It seems I was reborn as the son of a famous duke...

His son is named Dante... Dante Bearelf?

As the situation became clear, I discovered that I had been reincarnated into the body of a famous duke's son, Dante Bearelf. He had suffered an accident that left him unconscious for a day, and when I woke up, I had gained all of his memories and knowledge.

It was to be expected.

And this world, this kingdom, is called the Azzai Kingdom...

Apparently, it's a land of...

Peace...

No, no! Reincarnation? That was the most cliché word I've heard! But does that mean I'm dead?! Did I manage to save that child?!

Relax, you've got a pretty girl, so be more manly!

The maid on top of me is named Eileen...

Oh, really, why is she so beautiful?!

-...

Inhale and exhale, and now try to talk to her.

"Hello, gorgeous, how are you?"

"...?!"

Eileen is bewildered by this unexpected greeting.

Her face is clearly marked with the word "What?"

As if she had left her body and gone on an astral journey and never returned.

When I try to get out of bed, Eileen immediately reacts and tries to convince me to lie down and rest, but I refuse.

"Dante-sama! What on earth are you doing? Don't move! What are you going to do if you fall again?"

I'm sorry, Eileen.

I don't care what you say, I'm not going to listen to her, I want to know what I'm facing, I want to be able to accept what's happening to me.

I head to the door with blurred vision.

I grab onto something to avoid falling, but Eileen approaches and steps on her own maid uniform, slips, and I fall to the ground with her.

"Whoa!"

"Kyaa!"

I ended up in an awkward situation, as Eileen let out a very sexy scream; I fell on top of her, with my right hand touching her amazing breasts, my knees brushed against her panties, and our lips met.

"Nnnn~."

Experiencing a situation that could be considered one of the most typical in anime, manga, and light novels.

On the other hand, it's not unpleasant.

It's one of the most satisfying things I've experienced.

However, it's a bit unbelievable that after dying, all of this is happening to me...

Is this what they call a "perverted luck"?

And what's more important, it was my first kiss! Her lips were incredibly soft!

It was also a sensation I had never experienced before.

Oh my God!

I forgot to mention that I could also feel voluptuous breasts in my hands for the first time in my life.

I see, my hand fits perfectly...

Mm, it's perfect.

"Nnnn~... Stop squeezing me..."

Seeing Eileen's annoyance and discomfort, I quickly removed my hand and helped her up.

Damn it.

After everything that has happened...

I noticed her discomfort as she touched her lips with her delicate fingers while looking at the ground with a tomato-red face, and she ignored me every time our gazes met. I should apologize properly and thank her for taking care of me.

"I'm sorry, I hope you can forgive me!"

She tilted her head.

...It's obvious that a simple apology won't earn her forgiveness.

"Don't worry, Dante-sama, I know it wasn't your intention!"

Oh, she apologized.

"If you sa-."

Looking at myself in the nearby mirror, I began to remember which character Dante Bearelf was, yes.

I reincarnated into a supporting character among all the characters.

I forgot the name, but I knew what he looked like.

I approached the mirror and said.

"Wow, all the characters are so beautiful..."

Dante Bearelf, the second son of a high-ranking duke, one of the characters with excessive caution.

When the protagonist was falsely accused, Dante defended her because he was in love with her.

Yes, unrequited love.

When Dante was abducted by the royal guards, he was brutally tortured.

Day after day, he suffered endlessly, but he shouted at the top of his lungs that it was all lies.

But unfortunately, no one believed him, and his love for her never waned...

His family was imprisoned, his brother committed suicide, his stepmother and father were beheaded.

He was completely broken, mentally and physically.

He didn't expect anyone to help him or understand what had happened.

His only and last hope was (the protagonist Emilia), thinking every day that his dear friends would come to rescue him...

After a while, they stopped torturing him and locked him in a cell.

Tired of waiting, he used [Alchemy] on the handcuffs to create a key he would use when he escaped.

When he escaped his cell to save his unrequited love.

He used his skill [Search] to get almost to where she was, slowly he heard moans coming from where she was...

I don't want to say it, but...

He saw his unrequited love having relations with the prince. No, the king of his new country.

His spirit was completely shattered as he tried to stay alive, a dream he had prepared by fleeing with Emilia.

He disappeared.

Seeing this, the current king decided to cut off his head. However, to do so, he sought the approval of the current queen.

(the protagonist Emilia), but when she heard it, she stepped aside without responding.

Under the understanding that the current king had given his approval.

Dante's eyes lost their shine, and he remained speechless, gestureless, expressionless.

His inner thoughts were different from what he showed on the outside, his emotions had changed...

And then the last conversation was:

"Prince, no, King Ryle, promise me you'll be kind to her, that you'll love her, that you'll spend the rest of your life loving her, giving her the food she likes, taking care of her, protecting her... Protect her because she has decided her future is with you, not with me. If you hurt her, I swear I'll come out of hell and slowly kill you. I'll make her know the hell I've suffered in the last years of my life."

"You talk a lot, but I promise you everything you've said, now I'll let you die in peace."

The King responded calmly and dryly.

After that conversation, the rest is history.

This hidden story is too intense, to the point that I'm disgusted with the protagonist Emilia and the prince.

Being a game targeted at the general female audience.

I would never have believed this situation.

But reincarnating into Dante was the most unsettling part of the game. A Death flag appeared automatically...

Oh, crap! Crap! Crap! Crap! I admit the situation very quickly, but...!

...I know what I'm supposed to do.

Today is February 4th, and in the fifth week, classes begin at Bacti University.

I have to prepare and I shouldn't interact with Emilia...

Oh, who am I kidding! I won't die a second time!

I'll save the princess, I'll save the queen, I'll save Dante's family!

I'll change this shit for my own good, for the good of my family!

"Dante-sama, is something wrong?"

Eileen interrupted my negative thoughts, her face very close to mine, giving me a confused and worried look.

"Don't worry, Eileen, I feel fine thanks to you... Thank you very much."

I gave her a small smile.

"Really?! I'll prepare some tea for you!"

When she found out I was okay.

She jumped for joy as if she had just heard the happiest news in the world.

As Eileen happily leaves the room.

Alfred enters, the butler Alfred, tall, blue eyes, sixty years old, sword master, magic master.

An expert strategist, and one of the people Dante trusted the most.

"It's good to see you looking well, Dante-sama."

"What can I do for you, Alfred?"

"Yes, Dante-sama, your father wishes to speak with you."

When he said this, Alfred looked at me seriously and made it clear that what my father wanted to tell me was something I should listen to attentively.

As I understand it, this will be an important conversation about what will happen next. But the Dante from the game was foolishly in love and didn't care about that.

"Excuse me, if you don't need me, I'll go."

Finally, Alfred decides to bow and leave.

"Alfred, wait! I need a favor."

As he listens to me with a serious tone and expression, he realizes what I'm going to ask. And in return, he responds with the same intensity.

"You want me to train you, don't you?"

"Yes."

"Do you know how tough this training is?"

"I do."

"Tell me why."

"There's no reason, I just want you to turn me into a killing machine."

The warm joy from a few moments ago had given way to a dark and somber atmosphere.

The thing is, Alfred was one of the most terrible assassins of his time, and when he talked about killing, he got serious, his words carried weight.

It was like he was activating a button he shouldn't have.

But there's no turning back now.

I didn't expect this Otome game to have a dark and dangerous world. However, I decided to change the story of this wretched game.

For that, I must ask the most dangerous people in the world to train me. N'Beat Hunter.

"All right, I won't ask further about the reasons."

"Don't worry, Dante-sama, I just want to train for five weeks."

Yes, I'm aware that I'm asking for five weeks of training.

I know Dante knows about fencing and magic, but I feel that with focused training, I can achieve better results.

"Fuajajajaja, I understand, Dante-sama. Your training will take place tomorrow at a suitable time."

"Thank you, Alfred."

Thanking Alfred, I left the room and headed to Dante's father's study.

Walking down the hallway, it was expected that the house of a high-ranking noble would be very grand.

The hallway was adorned with high-end sculptures and portraits of what I imagine were his ancestors.

Almost reaching Dante's father's office, a faint sound could be heard from the room, and as I approached, I could hear Dante's father conversing.

When I reached the office, I could hear Dante's father talking through the door.

However, I couldn't make out what he was saying very well.

"Don't worry, Miss Elizabeth."

(Miss Elizabeth... who is he talking to?)

"Dante, come in."

I could tell he was behind the door... He has great perception.

I entered the room and saw Dante's father, dressed in a black suit with a goatee.

Smoking a joint as he looked out the window at the background landscape. While a vinyl record played classical music.

"Good morning, Father."

My vision... is getting blurry...

"...I see you're feeling better."

...H-his presence is really intimidating.

How could Dante have such a terrifying father? My legs are trembling, it's hard to breathe or articulate words.

"...Y-yes, I'm feeling better..."

"Hmphf, that's to be expected, since you're my son."

"Y-Yes..."

"Do you know why I've called you?"

I've got it... A proposal that the old Dante rejected because he was in love with her.

"I'll get straight to the point. Father, you want me to protect the princess, don't you?"

I ended up reading the diary that Dante conveniently left as an Easter egg.

And I read it thoroughly because it was interesting.

From a dating game that was obviously for girls, to having a damn intense hidden story.

Honestly, I don't know the rest.

Dante's father is asking me to protect the princess in the shadows while I'm at Bacti University...

Bacti University, an institute for the nobility.

This is where most of the main story takes place.

A university with highly educated scholars and well-prepared professors.

Additionally, I have to change the story, so I don't know what would happen if I were to die again.

In any case, the world of this damned game is just characters.

There's no reason not to doubt.

"I see you're ready to go."

"Yes, Father. I promise I won't fail in this mission."

This task is my future.

And I pledge that I'll avoid all the death flags that come my way.

"We are the Bearelf, and what do the Bearelf do?"

He said as he cleaned the blade of his sword.

"Eliminate all the scum that wishes to harm this pure land."

"That's right, our job is to rid this pure land of all the trash that harms it. Now, son, you have five weeks to prepare, and when you're ready, your hunt will begin."

"Yes, Father!"

Indeed, in five weeks, I'll be ready.

I'll eliminate all the scum that stands in my way. And I swear I won't fail.
