So The third life is a healing one?

Chapter 2: Hello... Story and Screw it...



Attention. A notice of something or someone with great interest and two of my past lives achieved them within their living days. Furthermore, attention can change in popularity.

For Ichi -designated as the Japanese girl who died from life one-, it was because of her good looks, good academics, decent background, and social skills. The same goes for you Furina but she was an actor, who possessed a high mastery in acting and as well as the ruling archon -god- of one of the seven nations teyvat. They had such traits that led them to great heights but that wouldn't last forever as I am the result of their lives ending, one way or the other.

In this life, I plan to head to where the main story will begin with no intention to take the capture targets and enact the reverse harem route of the game because it'll garner too much attention. My heart wouldn't take much attention for a very long time even -as it's affected by Furina's fears.

'But why? Why am I getting this much reaction!?' I screamed internally as I felt numerous gazes from students. Yes, students. Two months have passed and I stood in front of the stage where the game will commence, Holfort Academy.

An education institution nurturing commoners and nobles alike, catering to their academic needs for a better future. That's how I'd say it but it's naturally clear that there's a line between these two groups. I mean ignore the glances I'm getting and I see the sheer hate in the eyes of the nobility children towards the flinching commoner masses.

'Talk about hierarchy.' I shivered as the sight reminded me of the Fontaine cases in court and I shivered again, this time because of the eyes.

Multiple iris colour orbs glancing at me and it's nerve-wracking! I can sense them. The feelings of curiosity, indifference, fascination, disgust, and awe were directed to me. 'Oh archons, please let me get through this with focus and commitment as my guide' I mentally prayed since I knew why they were looking.

It was my appearance. I used to have slightly messy blonde hair and just one eye colour -for my pair- but I guess the new knowledge from Furina's memories wasn't the only thing I acquired. More specifically I now had silky white hair replacing my blonde hair and heterochromatic -blue and yellow- eyes replacing one iris colour from my pair of eyes.

Not only that, my body which stagnated from any physical growth for reasons I don't know, gained some more noticeable/visible changes within 2 months like my height and.. proportional increase to other sections of my body.

Now I look like a beauty that's on par or even likely -and unfortunately- surpassing my previous two lives. This trait is terrible. This is the opposite of what I want to have. 

'.... I'll just get out of here calm and head to the ceremony' I showed my calmest expression to mask my emotional turmoil as I headed to the academy.

'Things won't go very wrong. Things won't go very wrong.' I incessantly thought of a phrase like a mantra and hopefully, I don't garner hate from those brattish noble girls. I stopped worrying a minute later.

Slightly unbeknownst to the albino-haired beauty, her position has just been decided by numerous students as an angel from heaven and a harlot by a few angry nobles.

That'll be a problem she'll deal with later.

For 2 months, I've taken my time to slowly assimilate Furina's memories as it enormously affected my mind. I had to deal with the reality that I'd live another life that had a possible chance of being a misery giver. But let's disregard that for now. Because of Ichi and Furina's memories, I now have a new goal -from two now mixed into one-.

That being is to live well in this life. But how do I accomplish that? By staying in the academy and setting up shop. Of course, I can do it at the capital of the -Holfort- Kingdom but that would be a bit troublesome after finding out that there aren't many plots available or purchasable with her budget due to my family -the Lafans- being in debt. Luckily I dealt with that within the few months left before the present. Back to the goal, if I want to live well off in my life I must live under three rules while my stay here is a must:

Number 1, avoid messing with the storyline as much as possible. 

It's human nature to sabotage the flow of others' desired outcomes, be it unknowingly or on purpose. So to a certain extent, I should try to evade any locations and place a scenario from the otome game that would trigger but if I get caught in the drama's crossfire, minimize the involvement to a minimum to my best of capable hands.

Number 2, make more friends than foes.

Living a full human life alone is doable but very taxing to the soul. Making friends would be essential for my school life as it helps my mentality. Being fair toward everyone, or neutral would also be best to help avoid any noble drama or make an enemy. This principle is to ensure my sanity doesn't drop.

Number 3, have good grades.

I'd say this is obvious by now. To continue any activities imminent to be enacted on school grounds for the year or years to come is to have decent grades as this place requires every student to have passing scores to continue their studies. There are (of course) ways for this rule to be dismissed and do my money-making scheme, which doesn't revolve around my former taking the harem one. But that's only if I'm rich which I'm not.

"So how should I do this?" Maria questioned with a finger touching her chin below whisperingly, ignoring the whole ceremony speech, at present, happening in the school's auditorium. Numerous students seated and looked at the centre of the ceremony before turning their heads upon hearing and then witnessing the honour students standing up.

Maria was no exception as she snapped out of her mediocre focus and saw them, the capture target of the otome game.

Jilk Fia Marmoria, Brad Fou Field, Chris Fia Arclight, Greg Fou Seberg and lastly Julius Rapha Holhort. Five beautiful men with unique traits but one thing's for certain.

They aren't worth it. They, after some reflection and rethinking with Furina's mental processing, ain't worth capturing and become the heroine. I mean each one is tempting with their beautiful looks that I say are eye candy to most of the girl and all of them are important future figures of the kingdom. But trying to destroy the world's chances of surviving is making it so not worth it.

Why did I say that? Because every cliche of becoming a heroine of a novel would lead to hardships that only a main protagonist would be able to survive due to plot armor. I don't know what... brother did to complete the whole game but doing so was certainly absurdly difficult. It bordered the line of insanity. Multiple reviews of the otome game were about how rare and valuable a complete game is due to the other  mechanics in the game that don't revolve around the romance.

That and the capture targets give me the feeling of major cons waiting to be discovered plus there's also the shitty trait of the leader of the entourage

Anyways I don't know what the full content of the complete game's memory files are but I'm certain that the heroine has more qualifications than just light magic to become a saint if my novel knowledge has anything to say about it.

Now that I think about it, learning light magic was a good move. Even if I no longer wish to put my previous scheme to use, I can still use it for daily life. A worthwhile learning activity it was.

"And lastly, let us. welcome our honour student of this year, Angelica Rapha Redgrave, to the stage." The speaker says while I see her walking up to the pedestle.

She was stunning. Her neatly combed blond hair cascaded down her back, her eyes were a deep ocean color. Wearing a uniform befitting of her noble status as presence was the main focus of most people.

"She's beautiful." I couldn't help but omit quitely amongst the crowd of extras. Extras... It rolls well around the tongue.

"...." I think I want to change rule 1 now. Thinking about it, Angelica, apart from the Heroine who I no longer hate, is one of my favourite characters in the game. A lady that approaches problems or tasks with elegance, doing rigorous amounts of studying to be a fiancée for Julius. She's also one of the three main reasons why I hate to even consider using my previous scheme.

All because of realising how awful that bitch of a prince is.

Which leads me to consider tilting the story slightly so Angelica could have a happier life with someone who'll love her honestly and unconditionally.

That's right! I'm going to play matchmaker baby! My eyes burned with conviction as I pumped my fist.

Unbeknownst to her again, a boy sitting from behind looked at her suspiciously.
