Chapter 2: 2) The truth
I was watching the 5 princesses like anybody else, They were drawing a lot of attention.
So, it's understandable.
My step sister, My Fiancee who never loved me, my childhood love Alicia and my 2 childhood friends Momo and floria.
I'm sure every last one of them hates me for what I did to their Fiancees.
But, it was Inevitable.
I had to save them from those trash disguised as kind people.
They were seduced by the demon Lord and turned into puppets who did their bidding.
They acted kind while Destroying lives of common people and Turning them into slaves.
Why do I know this? Maybe it was when I turned 12.
I regained memories of my past life, I was a normal human being applying for the Army.
I wanted to become an army officer and for that I had to write a Competitive exam called CDS.
The day I was supposed to write the exam something happened...
And, I died...
Leaving my parents in poverty.
I don't really have memories of how I died.
Except there was Water Involved?
Maybe I comitted suicide after I wasn't selected?
But, I feel like I came out of the Interview Room quite happy with my performance.
It was also the last day of the Medical and Physical test.
So that what happened?
Anyway, After that... I was transported into a white space where There was a women with blonde hair.
Now that I think about it, she looked quite like Alicia.
Anyway, She babbled on about various things and after a while she gave me an offer to transport me into a world.
I was quite glad that I was being transported into another world because I always wanted it.
Honestly I was going to work for 10 years in the army and hope I become a martyr.
So I can make my parents proud.
Sadly, I died right after the Interview.
Maybe a car hit me and I was thrown into the sea.
Who knows.
I was feeling quite guilty and that's why I made an offer with the goddess.
If she was going to teleport me into another world and I was to save the 5 princesses from the demon Lord I asked that both my parents be born into a very rich family and they never have to face financial problems again.
And my brother becomes a sensation in the film industry. Since he really wanted to become an actor.
Shocked she asked me "is that it?"
She was so shocked that she tried explaining how hard the Journey was going to be.
But, to me. Knowing that the characters that I loved and cherished were actually alive and kicking and I can save them from impending doom.
And my parents become rich and my brother has a great life as an actor.
Those were more than enough for me.
Or so I thought...
But, I'm quite displeased.
I'm hungry as hell...
I haven't eaten much for almost 2 months.
It's understandable though, I do afterall live in the slums of Marjoram Kingdom.
The kingdom who is going to be ruled by my fiance.
But, now... After much hardword for almost 10 years I can finally have proper meals everyday.
I can live a life of luxury.
I don't have to starve like everyday.
Afterall, I get a Monthly Stipend of 56,000 C's as a B rank Lieutenant.
Honestly, This would be the princesses Weekly Expense.
Byt, Having to survive with barely 10000 C's a month was quite Hard.
But, as i was alone and only ate a meal a day. I managed to survive.
My previous life was far better than this.
There was actually no comparision.
I ate like a dumbass most pf the time but had to lose weight at the time of the exam.
I wasn't really fat per se. but, I was fat for the average 5'10 dude.
I had to bring my weight from 86 to 71 by the end of my 6 month preparation time.
Well i magnaged to do it.
And, Maybe i got in.
Anyway. This life was shit...
I was risking my life and living like a criminal for the people who barely even gave a damn about me.
It did trample my risolve a bit and ended up stabbing myself out of frustration but as i can go back in time after my death...
I couldn't really dye.
Than i remembered my parent's anf brother's faces, Which resolved me to just keep going.
because, If i didn't get the job done i was sure the goddess wouldn't leave my parents alone.
That was the only reason driving me to protect the princesses from the demon lord.
Even though they have already killed me Thousands of times.
How do you think i survived 10 years?
It was because of this skill of mine. They rmwere relentless at destroying me.
They did it tens of thousands of times in the last 10 years.
To be honest... If the goddess told me that theyvwere currently strong enough to deal with the demon king and there was no need for my intrusion anymore.
I'd probably slit my throat and happily die.
I can only hope at that point that The Goddess takes pity in me and sends me into a world where there are people who love me.
Even in that world, There's never been 1 person who's ever liked me.
It seems that curse has been carried on here aswell.
When did it start? It was probably 2 days before i regained my Past memories.
As a child i was quite delusional.
I thought that all the 5 princesses including my step sister liked me romantically.
And they were just being forced to Be with the princes.
One day, i realised that Klara my fiance liked the prince of Basil, Nathon Von Basil...
Brother of Momo von basil. The rightful heir of the throne of Besil.
But, I'm sure that Momo is strong enough to take over the position currently.
They become eligible to take over the throne at 25.
So the moment they Graduate from the prestegious academy they'll be the rightful heirs of the Kingdom.
Ruling over them.
Well, I'll probably be dead by than.
But, Until than I'll need to act like a villain and make sure they know i exist.
I'm still somewhere so they are driven into being stronger for the sake of Destroying me.
Too bad, I won't let them kill me.
Because, I need to Kill the demon Lord or atleast graze her enough to make sure the Princesses are able to kill her off.
Than, I'll probably be dead from overexerting myself.
It's euther i die from there on or the Goddess takes pity for me and decides to grant another wish.
If it doesn't happen than... I've pretty much will have a miserable life from birth to death.
Tho, I gadda say... Seeing these women upclose does make my heart beat fast.
Imagine loving someone so much that you would do anything to destroy his entire being.
They haven't relented in the last 10 years.
They hunted me down atleast tens of thousands of times.
But, i have to survive and kill the demon lord.
Because that's the only way i can get out of this hell.
Ooh shit... Alicia made eye contact.
My heart was beating hard, I awerted my gaze from her.
Worst part was my... Legs were shaking...
My hands were shaking. My mental state was quite shaken.
I was genuinely frightened by those eyes of hers.
[Calm down.]
And outta nowhere i somehow calmed down as i heard a voice in my head.
I've been hearing such Hallusinations for quite a while now.
Somehow, It's calming me down and i no longer feel frightened.
Whoever you are thank you. I inwardly said to myself.
