While I was momentarily surprised, Riche, who must have come in to clean my room, knocked on the door.

Knock! Knock! Knock!

“Young Master, excuse me for a moment.”

“Huh? Wait!”

I blurted out those words, but Riche noticed something strange because my voice had already changed.

“Woman’s voice?”

-Bam!

Damn it. Riche opened the door.

She looked around for a moment and then fixed her gaze on me.

Fortunately, I was not looking in her direction, so Riche must be looking at the back of my head right now.

I cleared my throat for a moment to return to my original voice and speak.

“Ahem. Uh, Riche? I have something to do for a moment. Can you leave?”

“Yes, I understand, but Young Master, I need to check why your voice and height have changed like this.”

Riche replied with a worried tone to my question.

Then she quickly approached and looked at my face.

“Wow!”

As soon as our eyes met, Riche swallowed a gasp and widened her eyes, scanning my face and body.

“….Young Master, is it really you?”

“Uh… yeah.”

Riche’s gaze was almost convinced, as if to deny it was impossible. Ah, damn it.

It’s unfortunate that Riche caught me, but at least it’s fortunate because it’s her… Ah. I feel like my life force is draining.

Why did I sign up for a cross-dressing competition?

What kind of crazy thing am I doing with this change of character?

Just a moment ago, I had no thoughts at all, but now that someone I know has found out, I feel like I’m going to die of embarrassment, seriously.

The feeling of my face getting hotter and redder, and trembling as I clench my fists for a moment.

Riche cautiously asks me with a curious look in her eyes.

“Y-Young Master… Do you have any thoughts about trying on makeup?”

“Huh? Suddenly?”

“Yes! I think you would look really pretty if you put on some makeup right now!”

Riche is more excited than usual.

It’s a strange feeling, as if she suddenly woke up to something weird, but it must be my mistake.

Yeah, that’s right. Damn it. In the end, I nodded without thinking at her question.

“Uh, yeah. Please put on some makeup then.”

“Yes! I understand.”

I let out a deep sigh and cut off my daydreaming.

-Haah.

“Do you happen to have any places that you don’t like, Young Master?”

“Huh? Um? No, it’s fine. It turned out really well.”

It’s not a lie.

The reflection of myself in the mirror right now is so perfect that no one would ever think it’s Kane dressed as a woman.

I’m confident that if I walk around the streets like this, people passing by will glance at me.

That’s why I’m feeling a bit self-conscious.

As I was feeling self-conscious for a moment, Riche tilted her head and asked.

“By the way, Young Master, how did you end up like this?”

“Um, well… that.”

Should I explain? Honestly, it’s a bit ambiguous to lie after being caught in this appearance.

So it’s better to explain rather than lie. But the problem is… how do I explain?

I stuttered as I tried to explain to Risha, excluding the details of the quest for the transformation.

“So, um, yeah. I wanted to win the cross-dressing contest, so I ended up like this, using that ring…?”

“?? Um… yes, right.”

Nodding at her question, Riche looked at me with an expression that showed she couldn’t really understand me.

‘No. Damn it. Don’t look at me like that! I have self-esteem issues too!!

My face is getting hotter with embarrassment, but what’s even more annoying is my ‘Pretty’ reflection in the mirror.

As I was having these thoughts for a moment, Riche complimented me with an embarrassed expression.

“..Y-you look really pretty, Young Master…”

“Uh, yeah. Okay.”

Is that supposed to make me feel better? Is that it?

“Anyway, can you do my makeup on the day of the cross-dressing contest?”

“Yes. I understand. I will make you look more perfect than today.”

She nodded her head confidently as she smiled happily.

If she made me look more perfect than I already do, then no one would be able to tell, right?

I felt a sense of discomfort for a moment as my thoughts went that far.

I looked at Riche seriously and asked her.

“Riche, how did you know I was Kane right away?”

“Well, no matter how you change, you’re still you, Young Master. And your hairstyle was exactly the same too.”

Insane. Why is your insight so good?

“Then if you saw me like this for the first time, do you think you could have recognized me? Assuming I was wearing a wig.?”

“Um…I can’t say for sure. I might have had some doubts, but I probably wouldn’t have recognized you.”

“Then other people wouldn’t recognize me either, right?”

“Well… I don’t think so?”

That’s probably true, right? I sighed with relief inwardly.

I returned to my original state and wiped off my makeup, feeling self-conscious, as I walked towards the tournament venue.

***

Meanwhile, the clone looked at Kane, who was cross-dressed, from a distance, shaking his head.

“Why. Are you embarrassed even by me?”

“Why? Aren’t you cute? Honestly, if he were next to me, I would’ve hugged him, you know?”

“Don’t say that in front of the original. He might die of embarrassment for sure.”

“Ugh! Then I’ll have to ask him to show me sometime later!”

…I don’t know what’s going on.

The clone pretended not to notice Constellation’s maniacal gaze and looked out to a distant mountain..

Felling embarrassed, he changed the topic.

“By the way, do you really not remember getting drunk?”

“Yeah, um?! Of course, I don’t remember!”

“Hmm, really?”

Actually, no. To be honest, I remember everything I did when I was drunk. S~ᴇaʀᴄh the NøᴠᴇlFire.nᴇt website on Gøøglᴇ to access chapters of nøvels early and in the highest quality.

But admitting that would be a black mark on my record.

Ugh! I never imagined I would be so weak as to get drunk.

I knew I had weakened compared to my usual state, but I never imagined I would become so weak as to get drunk.

Blushing with embarrassment, the Constellation opened her mouth to chance the topic.

“Anyway! Let’s forget about that! How about it? Did anything happen when I wasn’t around?”

“Well, everything was the same as usual.”

“Hmm, really? Tsk! Well then, let’s keep an eye out a little more.”

“Yeah, sure..”

With that, the two of them started watching Kane from a distance again.
