It probably had something to do with having part-time jobs at a family restaurant, karaoke place, and a convenience store.
ļ¼Hahh⦠why does a high school girl like me have to go through such hardship?ļ¼
It wasnāt the first or the second time sheād thought like that.
When she was young, Miria had lost her mother, and she lived in an apartment with her father since then.
However, her father was always fooling around with women. He often brought women Miria didnāt know to their apartment.
Moreover, he also had a bad habit of drinking alcohol and wasting money.
He was a typical good-for-nothing man.
She ran out of patience and decided to leave the apartment when she was old enough to work part-time.
When she finally became a high school student, she succeeded in transferring to a school in another town and living alone.
However, she needed a lot of money to live alone.
She might be able to get financial help if only she had good relatives.
But, reality was cruel.
Her relatives refused to help simply just because she was the daughter of āthat manā.
Since she didnāt know when her father would barge into her room, she had no choice but to rent an apartment room that had an auto-locking door.
And the rent wasnāt cheap. It was 50,000 yen a month.
But, not only did she have to pay rent.
Utilities were 5,000 yen, and although she had already reduced the food expenses as much as she could, she still had to pay 15,000 yen for food expenses, as well as10,000 yen for miscellaneous expenses.
Therefore, she applied to multiple part-time jobs.
But, at the same time, she couldnāt neglect her studies because she wanted to graduate properly from high school.
Realizing how hard the world she was living in was, she kicked a pebble on the ground while walking down the road at night as she rubbed her sleepy eyes.
Her part-time job ended at 10pm. The amount of money she could earn was fixed.
Even if she wanted to get more, she couldnāt ask for longer working hours.
She didnāt think she would find it so inconvenient to be a minor.
ćKanami-san, youāre boring~ć
The voice of her classmate echoed in her head.
Miria had no friends.
Not only did she always work part-time after school, but she was so smart and gained so much respect from people.
No. That wasnāt really the cause.
Because she was a popular, smart girl in school, she had been confessed to by the most popular guy in school.
But, she dumped him without thinking twice.
And that was the actual cause.
Whether fortunate or unfortunate, Miria was a beautiful girl.
While she kept walking down the slightly dark street, Miria made a wishlist in her head:
ļ¼Thing I want number 1 : A cute friendļ¼
ļ¼Thing I want number 2 : A lot of moneyļ¼
ļ¼Thing I want number 3 : Sushiļ¼
ļ¼Thing I want number 4 : A hamburgerļ¼
ļ¼Thing I want number 5 : A pot of shabu-shabuļ¼
ļ¼Thing I want number 6 : All-you-can-eat yakinikuļ¼
ļ¼Wait⦠Why is it gradually changing to food?ļ¼
She took out her old smartphone she got from the family restaurant manager as a bonus for her hard work.
Then, she put the earphones she bought at a 100-yen shop in her ears.
ć. . . ..I donāt hear it~ I donāt hear it~ What the heck are you talking about~?ć
ćHahahahahahać¼ć
The laughter of the audience echoed after the comedianās joke.
She listened to the usual comedy program as she walked.
Yes, ālistenedā. She was listening instead of watching.
Besides, she couldnāt watch it in a high image quality setting because she used a cheap internet plan with low speed.
Therefore, she set it to ultra-low image quality, put her smartphone in her pocket, and just listened to the sound while walking.
ćFufuć¼ Hahahać¼ ā¦ā¦ā¦ć
She laughed at the comedianās joke, andā¦. she felt like she wanted to cry somehow.
She didnāt know why she felt like that.
However, it was true that she felt empty, sad, and how tiny her existence was.
ļ¼I feel like my existence is below an antāsā¦.. No⦠Ants have a lot of family members⦠I donātā¦ļ¼
Again, she kicked a stone on the ground for no reason.
Suddenly, the smiling face of her grandma that she loved so much, popped into her head.
ļ¼Itās gonna be okayć¼ Everything will be alrightć¼ļ¼
Saying that in her mind, Miria kept walking forward.
At that timeā¦
She felt a shock in her entire body all of a sudden.
She saw the scenery of the night sky, the street, and the streetlights spinning around for some reason.
And the next moment, her field of vision was filled with black.
Prologue ā ”
Remembering everything all of a sudden, Mylia blinked repeatedly while lying in her bed.
In the westernmost part of the Kingdom of Adrashelm, there was the house of a poor aristocrat family called the Atwoods.
The youngest of seven sisters in the house was Mylia de la Atwood, 8 years old.
She had an easygoing personality but was ostracized by her family.
She was in a panic when she realized that she, who was a Japanese person, had become the daughter of a poor aristocrat in the Kingdom of Adrashelm.
ļ¼For realā¦? Could this be⦠a different worldā¦? Iām shocked⦠*Otamageć¼!ļ¼
*/ Oh My Gosh!
Due to her grandmotherās influence, Mylia made an old-fashioned reaction of astonishment.
Then, she kicked the blanket that wrapped her body, and jumped off the bed.
She realized her sight had become lower.
She was short now.
And because she had become a little girl, her big boobs were gone.
She realized that she was no longer a Japanese highschool girl,Kanami Miria, but the daughter of a poor aristocrat, Mylia.
ćThat time⦠I was hit by a car and⦠diedā¦?ć
Apparently, she had died in an accident and reincarnated in this world.
And Mylia de la Atwood had a high fever last night, and recalled the memories from her previous life.
ćUwaah⦠Is this the āreincarnated in another worldā thingā¦?ć
She knew about it because other than listening to her favorite comedy program, she also used her cheap internet plan to read some web novels sometimes since reading novels didnāt use much data.
She looked at her whole body.
Small hands, thin arms, an old dress, and white legs extending from the hem of her dress.
Her pale lilac-colored hair was gently waving.
ļ¼Hoo⦠My hair is so smoothā¦ļ¼
When she finger-combed her hair, her fingers went through it smoothly.
She approached the window and saw her face.
ļ¼Uwa⦠what a muddy window⦠Hmm. My face looks just like before⦠Wait. My eyes are⦠dark purple?ļ¼
After she calmly checked her appearance, she slammed her head against the window.
ļ¼It hurts⦠So this really isnāt a dreamā¦ļ¼
She let out a sigh of relief because she realized that she would never meet her father again, and was released from her suffocating school life.
She lifted her head off the window and folded her arms.
ćReally⦠Iām very lucky to be able to reincarnate in another world. Thank you, God! Thank you for giving me another chance!ć
She decided to move on and make a fresh start in this world.
ļ¼I donāt want to live a worse life than before⦠I want to live a peaceful life without worrying about money. If possible, I also want to have an all-you-can-eat yakiniku life!ļ¼
All-you-can-eat yakiniku was the highest luxury she ever wanted.
She got excited imagining that she could eat it every day.
ļ¼Also, I want cute friendsā¦ļ¼
For the sake of her deceased mother, she wanted to spend her life with friends.
She really didnāt want to be a loner again.
ļ¼Hmm. But if I become very rich, I feel like things like human relationships will be troublesome. Besides, I think with my talent, becoming rich would be difficultļ¼
Mylia was a hard-worker type rather than a genius type.
When at school, she was able to break into the top grades because she studied until midnight.
ļ¼Yosh. The goal will be āa littleā rich, then.ļ¼
After she decided her goal, next would be to decide things she had to avoid.
When she was thinking, his good-for-nothing fatherās laughter popped in her mind.
ļ¼ā¦ā¦I definitely donāt want to get married. Iāll avoid it no matter what.ļ¼
Yakiniku : YES
Marriage : NO
It wasnāt that all the men in the world were useless like her less-than-a-maggot father, but Mylia couldnāt imagine living with a man in the future.
ļ¼For now, Iāll go with thećYakiniku : YES, Marriage : NOćplanļ¼
While wandering around her cheaply-built room, she decided to draw out the memories of when she was Mylia.
It was important to know her situation and position in this world after all.
Mylia started with trying to remember calmly, but thenā¦
⦠she dropped to her knee.
ļ¼Awawawaā¦ā¦. Thi⦠This is badā¦ā¦ This is really badā¦ā¦!ļ¼
The Atwood Family where Mylia was born was a very poor aristocratic family.
Its title of nobility was āKnightā. It was the title with the lowest rank.
The house was located in the westernmost part of the Adrashelm Kingdom where much lavender grew, and the family barely managed to make money by shipping the native lavender to other regions.
The biggest problem was Myliaās father, the lord of the Atwood Family, Aaron de la Atwood, and her six sisters.
First, her father, Aaron, was trying to marry his daughter to the neighboring house so that he could obtain the right to use the forest which belonged to that house.
The reason was because he was a stupid muscle-brain who was only interested in hunting.
Because he was that kind of person, it was no exaggeration to say that the Atwood Family was poor because of him.
And then, her sisters.
The second daughter, Robin de la Atwood, had returned home from her husbandās house.
The reason was⦠because she cheated on himā¦
ļ¼Get married, have an affair, and then go back to her family⦠what the heck was she doing!?ļ¼
Remembering that, Mylia hit the floor with her hand.
Because the second daughter cheated on her husband, the Atwood Familyās reputation fell.
And in order to restore the reputation of his family, the patriarch, Aaron, planned to marry off all of his daughters.
He didnāt discriminate and sent letters of goodwill randomly to every house around the region.
The youngest of the seven sisters, Mylia, ended up being engaged to the eldest son of a merchant in the region.
Maybe it was because she always spaced out, her father thought of her as a failure, so he forced her to get married as well even though she was still very young.
ThećYakiniku : YES, Marriage : NOćplan was ruined before she could even execute it.
ļ¼A merchant, huh⦠In a super-rural region like thisā¦? I bet his business was a *dagashiya or somethingā¦ļ¼
*/ Candy store. Usually in a rural area. If you watch Non Non Biyori or Dagashi Kashi, you will know.
The merchantās house in my memory was a run-down house that was even below the level of a horseās stable.
And there werenāt many things that could be sold in a remote area.
If Mylia got married, she would definitely live in poverty.
ļ¼No⦠I absolutely donāt want to get married⦠I have to do somethingā¦ļ¼
Mylia stood up with the determination to run away from this house, from this region, from her father.
Being a poor aristocratās daughter.
Living in a remote area.
On the verge of being engaged to a poor merchant.
Myliaās second life began with her trying to escape those fates.
