“… I can’t believe it.”

I muttered while looking in the mirror.

The man in the mirror, looking stunned, was fat… and that’s exactly what he was, a huge man who, despite being a high school student, must have weighed a hundred kilos.

“… ach!”

When I put my hand on that huge hunk of flesh and pinched it, I felt pain.

This confirmed that this ugly, bulky body was definitely mine.

“… haah.”

Let’s calm down for a second.

First of all, —this person is not me. You can say I’m crazy, but it’s the truth.

“How did this happen? I don’t know. I don’t even remember what I was doing a while ago… No.”

That’s when I remembered.

What happened before I regained consciousness, I vividly remembered the moment just before my life ended— the moment when my previous self ceased to exist.

“!?”

There was a loud sound and I felt a huge impact on my body… probably I was hit by a truck.

I wasn’t crossing the road or anything, it just crashed into me while I was waiting at a traffic signal. I don’t know if I was dozing off or just using my smartphone.

“So, this is reincarnation, huh? I never thought this would happen to me.”

Humans sure are strange, when faced with things that are hard to accept, their minds seem to accept it naturally when they actually experience them.

So I accepted this fact, albait half-heartedly.

But there was one problem.

“This body… this face… isn’t it Arashi Gundo?”

Arashi Gundo, that’s the name of this character, the original owner of this body.

Well, since the memories in this body have assimilated with mine… I can say, not just in appearance, but wholly, I’ve become Arashi Gundo. I never had imagined.

“Drowning in the Everlasting Love— also known as ‘Everlasting Love Bite’, and I’m the villain of that.”

It was a love comedy-focused eroge that featured a heavy portrayal of love. It was adapted into different forms such as manga and anime, showing different storylines.

The game didn’t have multiple heroines, but was focused on the main heroine who was the protagonist’s classmate and the sub-heroine who was her mother.

Depending on the route, the player can experience mother-daughter love, making it somewhat erotic, as is expected in eroges.

“… haah.”

I have to admit, I loved the game.

Partly because I like the Yandere genre, which is said to have girls with heavy love, and partly because, above all, the heroine and her mother were tremendously attractive.

Not only were they devoted to the main character, but they were not just a yes-man, they were also bold enough to say no to wrong and to scold the protagonist… The combination of all of these things makes for a heavy love that was truly a work full of charm.

“I was surprised at the suddenness of it all. But, isn’t it normal for a guy like me to be reincarnated as the hero or something, God? Why do I have to be the Villain?”

Despite his appearance, Arashi Gundo was the boy with a distorted love for the heroine.

In the mainstream, this kind of villain is called the worst character, but Arashi Gundo tries to lay his hands on the heroine, only to fail. In the end, he tries to kill her with a knife, but is stopped by the protagonist and arrested by the police… Well, that’s the kind of guy he is.

“I wouldn’t do such things though. But still…”

The destination of ugly jealousy is always barren.

I have no intention of imitating Arashi’s way of life, and I won’t make the heroine I like suffer… Being hated is out of the question.

“It seems like this guy has been bothering the heroine for a while, and he’s already hated by her. This makes me doomed, right?”

He was a hopeless case, with no dreams or hope left.

Although I started playing this game with the perception that he’s just a creepy middle-aged man, his way of speaking and acting was so persistently disgusting that I often thought I should just quit.

“Even though the NTR flag was raised because of this creep, there wasn’t NTR in the story, so I was relieved to some extent.”

In the end, the protagonist bonds with the heroine which is a happy ending… It was so much fun that I wanted to play it again and again if I had time, but it is no longer possible now, I suppose?

“… I wonder what to do from now on.”

It’s a given that I’ll have to live as Arashi Gundo.

I understand Arashi’s memories to some extent because of my reincarnation, but he no longer has any connection to his family, though he receives a little bit of money from them, his family probably wants to keep their distance from a son like him.

“Wait, this guy has a brother and sister? I never knew that.”

Whether in games, manga, or anime, there was no depiction of the parts of his family.

From what I remember, he was thought of as being unreliable and laughed at by his older brother, and his younger sister thought it was embarrassing to have such an older brother and also cuss him.

Yeah, I thought it was distorted, but there’s no good reason to assault a girl.

“Being the main character and loved by her, that would be the best… But instead, I’m Arashi.”

The heroine’s name was Shirayuki Hououin, a young lady from a fairly wealthy family, as her name suggests.

Her father passed away when she was very young and she lives with her mother, who was also the sub heroine.

She looks mature beyond her age as a high school student and has a sophisticated personality that of a young lady… you know what I mean? The addition of the overwhelming Yandere attribute to the mix makes her a much-loved character —a must for those who love Yanderes.

“… haah.”

No matter how many times I think about it, I can’t help but sigh.

In such a world that I love, and even though there is a heroine that I love, it’s not surprising that she already hates me… Without doing anything, I can only watch the hero and heroine make out as a bystander.

“I love you. No matter what form you take, or who you become… no matter what kind of being you are reborn as, I will always be at your side… I want to dedicate everything to you… And I want you to do the same to me. Oh my love, even if death do us part, I will absolutely continue to love you… even when you reincarnate, I will love you again. I pledge this love to you. So I will never let you go— I will say it again, okay? I swear this love to you, no matter who you are reborn as.”

That’s what Shirayuki said in the ending.

Because I played the game so many times, those are the words I heard her say over and over again, with her highlighted fading eyes, but with a certain love in them, is etched in my memories.

“Well, the harem route including the mother was intense too.”

It was quite destructive in its own way.

Not only was Shirayuki’s love heavy, but her mother, who gave birth to her, was also a Yandere, as usual, and if anything, her love was overwhelmingly heavier than Shirayuki’s.

“That’s all a pipe dream now…”

I reluctantly accepted that if I’m going to live in this body, I’ll have to accept it and move on.

“I’m Arashi Gundo… and if I can’t escape, I’ll do my best to stay alive, damn it.”

While feeling down, I steeled myself, accepting that I have to live with this body.

At first, I tried to figure out how to deal with this new body. Since my original was average, this huge body was difficult to move and my structure was easily imagined to be terrible.

“First, I’m going to lose some weight. That way I’ll get a body like everyone else!”

The first goal after reincarnating in the world of my favorite erotic game is to lose weight.

I quickly walked around the dirty room, approached the wardrobe, changed into my workout clothes and went outside.

“… I gotta clean up when I get back.”

This room is too dirty… How can you live in such a place?

There is a lot of work to do and I hate it, but all of this is necessary to embrace the way of life as Arashi.

Stepping out of the old apartment, I immediately started running… but I quickly ran out of breath and needed to take a break or my body won’t be able to move.

“Zeh… zeh… I’m gonna die.”

While walking, breathing heavily, I bumped into a girl.

“Haah, sorry…!”

“No, I was just not paying attention… ?”

She had beautiful silver hair swaying in the wind.

As the summer has yet to arrive the cool breeze blew through the streets, and it was there that I met… the person I never thought I would meet.

“… Shirayuki?”

Shirayuki Hououin, the heroine of this world, was staring at me with her blue eyes.
