I Don’t Want To Be the Main Character

3. But why are you guys regressing? I really don’t know.

1.

What should I do when I realize that the place I was reincarnated from was a romance fantasy novel I had read and threw away before, and that the setting of the novel was not written in ancient times, but rather a place where the s*xes were reversed and the characters’ genders were also changed.

I thought about it, but there was no answer.

It wasn’t just one or two strange things. It’s a messy, messy situation to the point where you really don’t know what it is. In this situation, even if I go to the carrier, the answer will not come out.

To think about it for a long time with a frown on his face. He let out a sigh, not a sigh.

“Why did you realize that only now…”

Twenty years have passed since I began to live as if I was reincarnated. It is a time that would have changed twice even if the rivers and mountains changed, and it was a miracle that I realized that this was the contents of the novel I had read. It’s a shame I read it a little carefully, otherwise I wouldn’t have remembered it.

Of course, the contents of the novel and whatnot were all vague now. It’s a novel that I read more than 20 years ago, so how can I remember the contents?

It’s not like I’m passively equipped with perfect memory like the main characters in the novel.

“……Well, there is one thing that is certain.”

All I read was an ordinary romance novel, but there was no such thing as suddenly returning children and making a fuss. In other words, I know it’s a novel, but the content of the novel and the development of the world I live in now are different no matter what.

After a long thought, I put the newspaper I had collected in front of the door and sat down at the desk. And he opened the magic book he was reading.

“Worrying about it will change anything?”

If I put off what I have to do as much as I can, I put it off, anyway.

I have to read the magic books I just read.

And obviously, since Princess Elena said she was preparing to visit Countess Weiss’s family, you’ll know something about it when she comes and sees her face.

Ah, by the way, why did these guys do a regression?

…… I’ll ask Princess Elena once. No matter how much I think about it, I don’t think there was anything like that in the original.

2.

“…….”

I’m back. The process of realizing that fact was confusing. A flood of memories rushing in like water. My head was throbbing with a sudden headache.

Black eyes like obsidian, similar to the dark hair typical of northerners. I regretted the eyes that mysteriously shone as if they contained the light of the stars.

“……I’m back. So I can start all over again.”

In the dry, low murmurs, joy that could not be hidden flashed. That joy would be halved if she knew that she was not the only one who had received a blessing that could only be expressed through her miracle, a return to the past that she had longed to return.

At least that’s how it is now.

Eileen Nord.

The Grand Duke of the Principality of Nord and the legitimate owner of the Grand Duchy of Nord, who has prevented the invasion of barbarians and monsters from the north for generations. And she was also a member of the imperial family, with a mixture of royal blood.

In order to prevent barbarians from crossing the Great Barrier, she can recruit almost unlimited soldiers at all times, and it is not an exaggeration to say that she already has everything.

But Eileen Nord, there was something that even she didn’t have until the very end.

“Rudrick…”

Remorseful murmurs dissipated in the cold northern air. But even the harsh northern winter could not quench her already burning heart.

I should have stopped loving you.

Even the murmurs he had uttered dozens of times and hundreds of times of self-deprecation were not his true intentions. As much as I still think that if I had known that her dazzlingly beautiful man would leave like that, I’d rather have passed her and gone to her other rival.

The incurable curse that had been in her since birth had already grown to the point where she couldn’t use her hands the moment she realized it.

Until the end, the only thing she could do was look at her sick face, hold her hand, and repeat empty complaints that she would be able to hold on.

“……I will never go through that again.”

Eileen, who had made a firm resolution, shook her head in a polite, insipid voice. If her eyes were extraordinary, she would be able to notice the spleen and passion in her voice.

Her face was calm as if she was sleeping, but the sight of her no longer breathing passed through her head. Such painful memories that I can never forget.

One such miserable experience was enough.

Never in her life had she cried out to her god as much as then. Never had she cursed God as much as that moment.

But in the end, God did not abandon Eileen Nord nor Ludrick Weiss. Thanks to that, at this moment, didn’t I go back to the past once again after 8 years?

Torreure.

The tears that had been pooling formed on her thin eyelashes and then fell.

“You showed ugliness.”

Eileen muttered indifferently, wiping the tears from her eyes with her sleeve, and got herself up and headed for the balcony of her office.

Unlike her office, where she warmed her stove, as soon as she opened the door to her balcony, the cold, cold air typical of her northern country hit her relentlessly.

But who is she? She is none other than the iron-blooded Grand Duke of Nord.

The number of monsters and northern savages with different names in her hands is too numerous to count. Just as the Principality of Nords has defended the Great Wall from all sorts of threats through the ages, she, like her ancestors, must follow suit.

However, it was not just a huge barrier that she had to protect until the end of her life.

3.

It was all dark. It was nothing new. To her, the light of her sun was damnable, and the darkness that had descended upon her world felt rather cozy and familiar.

Vampire.

A monster that looks just like humans and lives hiding among humans, but cannot survive without killing them by sucking their blood.

As long as they are alive, they have no choice but to crave human blood, and since they are non-human vampires, they cannot truly make friends with humans. To vampires, humans were just weak beings who would die instead of providing fresh blood whenever they were hungry.

To live is to kill someone and steal their blood.

But even for her, who has lived almost eternity, her experience of the past eight years has been a different experience. It was good to say that it was the first stimulus she felt in her long life.

‘…… If you need blood, drink my blood.’

‘Don’t be stupid. Even a strong woman will die if I suck her blood. You, weak, will be able to endure———’

‘I’m a wizard?’

‘…… What?’

‘I can treat quite a few wounds by myself. So will it be okay? Arwen, if you drink in moderation.’

‘…… Even being a wizard doesn’t change anything. Wasn’t there one wizard among the humans I’d sucked blood from?’

‘I bet you didn’t want to control yourself back then, fool!’

‘…….’

Her tears ran down her pale skin. From the purple eyes that humans pointed at as being magical, but from the eyes that someone selflessly praised for being as pretty as an amethyst.

Vampires don’t shed tears. I thought there was no exception, even if it was Jinjo, who is more evolved than ordinary vampires and their ancestors.

“……It wasn’t.”

The hot tears flowing down his cheeks were an unfamiliar sensation to Arwen. She was happy to say that she never shed a tear as long as she lived.

But even true ancestors shed tears. She didn’t want to learn something new that she never knew.

Muttering, Arwen kicked off her coffin and stood up.

Normally, she would have hated the act of kicking the coffin, which is her only resting place and nest, saying it was not dignified, but in the current situation, the story is a little different.

An opportunity to change the tragic fate that could not be reversed even with the power of the True Vampire has arrived.

“If there really is a god… I have to give thanks.”

A monster who longed for humans more than anyone else, but couldn’t become human.

It was not something that would come out of the mouth of Arwen, who regarded that fate as a curse and hated God. I have to say that at least her people who knew her, or other vampires who knew her, would have been astonished if they had heard of it.

Colors were returning to the achromatic world that had been marked with tragedy. Even in the darkness of a cozy night, her purple eyes shone sharply, and through the darkness, I could see clearly what I wanted to see.

“You must first go to the Empire of Man. I must go and see him.”

Muttering, Arwen’s gaze turned toward the old window of the old castle where she was staying. If she had been her original self, she would have stayed in her domain without doing anything, and only after three years had passed would she have headed for the Human Empire.

The story is different now. There was no time.

As before her return, even the great ancestors of the world should not let Rudrick go in vain.

I had to find a way to lift the curse before the insidious curse dwelling in my lineage manifested itself and became stronger.

From now on, it will be a race against time.

Muttered Arwen’s figure scattered and disappeared into the darkness of the night. Completely without leaving even a trace.

After a while, dozens of bats flew up from the abandoned castle.
