This is a Parallel World?
Reversal has now commenced.
I hope you enjoy it.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Where is this place?
I am Tomoaki Yushima, an ordinary college student you can find anywhere. A mediocre nerd who has at least a few friends.
Because of my late-maturing upbringing, I never had a lover since birth. Though I'm still longing to have one, I feel like I'll likely give up halfway, so I didn't even try.
I am now in a pitch-dark place.
It was very narrow, not even enough to stretch out my limbs.
Aside from being narrow, it was also dark. Moreover, it's shaking up a bit. It's like I'm being carried somewhere.
How in the world did this happen?
And I was just sleeping in my bed earlier!
I don't get it. Was I kidnapped? While I was desperately spinning out my head, I heard a dull sound, and the surroundings stopped shaking.
Apparently, the 'delivery' has reached its destination.
Feeling a bit scared, I heard a man's voice coming from the outside.
"I brought fresh vegetables today."
Fresh vegetables?
Am I in a shipment of goods or something?
Then I heard the voice of a woman.
"Thank you. We'll buy them all."
She has a crystal-clear voice like a goddess, and the way she speaks sounded elegant.
It's already at a level where one can understand that she's one hell of a beauty, even only after hearing her voice once.
While I was thinking of such things, a light suddenly shone from above.
Oh shit, the seller opened the crate I was in!
"Hehehe, look closely. My veggies here are……"
"Ah."
My eyes met with a man with a beard.
He looked surprised, too, seeing what's inside the crate. That would be me.
"Huuuh! What the hell!"
"Uwaaa!"
Because I was suddenly yelled at, I also jumped up in surprise.
"Wh-what the fuck?! Since when did you get inside my crate!?"
"Since when……"
I couldn't explain.
In the first place, I don't even know how I ended up in that crate of yours!
Thus, I'm in a situation where I don't have any idea what's going on anymore.
"I am……what on earth……"
Looking around, I realized I am now inside a brick building, which I cannot not think it's from modern Japan's architecture.
Even the man I front of me also had a face like a Westerner.
"Hey, you! Are you trying to steal my vegetables……Hmm?"
Once he looked at my face, the seller went silent.
I feel like he's gazing at my hair and eyes in particular.
"You……you have black hair. Moreover, you have black eyes, too……"
Isn't that obvious? I'm a standard Japanese, after all.
"What's your name?"
"Tomoaki Yushima……"
"……What a strange name. Okay. You want to come with me?"
"……"
What's this dork aiming? He suddenly went calm.
However, I didn't answer. Rather, I'm too scared to say anything.
While I was in great trouble, or so that's what I feel as of the moment, I heard that beautiful voice once again.
"Please wait."
"Irene-san? What is it?"
I see, so this woman's name is Irene.
I turned back to the source of the woman's voice. However, contrary to my expectations, the thing that I was was not what I was expecting. Yet.
It is because the woman with an angelic voice in question is wearing a mask, the type of mask one uses in masquerade ball events.
Why is she wearing that kind of thing in broad daylight? While I was thinking about that,
"What are you going to do with this boy?"
'Black-eyed black hairs are pretty rare. I'm sure he will fetch me a good price."
Rare!?
You intend to sell me!?
"He was in my crate, and I'm the one who found him first. So you can say he's mine."
"That reasoning doesn't make sense."
"Cut the crap, Blossom wench!"
The man slapped Irene's face.
At that moment, the mask she's wearing came off and fell on the floor.
"Ah…"
Irene tried to pick up the mask in a hurry. Despite that, her face was already revealed by that motion.
What brought to me was a face as beautiful and as perfect as a sculpture. I knew my ears were right.
If one looks a bit closer, he or she can observe that her figure is also outstanding, her bust is well endowed, and her waist is tight.
It's like a big-tits big bust character from an anime had come to life in the real world, a proportion that cannot be described by words.
I was already impressed that there were such people that existed.
However,
"Oweeeeeeeugh!"
As soon as the seller saw Irene's face, he grimaced, as if about to puke at any moment.
"D-disgusting! I knew it, the people in this city are all ugly!"
Hn?
Something feels wrong.
I knew all people have their reference for what is pretty and what is cute, but calling this level as something ugly is totally inappropriate at all.
On the contrary, if she's the one reacting like this to this plain-faced seller, I wouldn't find it strange at all.
"Damn wench, put your mask on already! You still dare expose your face like that?!"
"I-I'm very sorry."
Irene immediately put her mask back on in a way like she's feeling ashamed of what she's done.
"Tch, come on, let's finish this damn deal and quick! The sooner we end it, the sooner I get out of this place! I still have to sell this fellow off!"
"M-me?"
"You're a young, black-eyed black-haired man. Rich people will certainly buy you."
"W-wait a minute! I am-"
"If you're going to hate something, then hate your own fate. Rather, feel lucky that no one had caught you until that year."
N-no way……
While I was in despair, Irene spoke once again.
"I'll buy him."
Not only me, but the man was also surprised by her words.
"Are you serious?"
"I'll pay you as much as I can."
"In that case, I'd like to have ten large Manses!"
"It can be done."
The seller lost his voice. He didn't expect a deal too abrupt.
"Y-you're not kidding me, right? It's ten times his price!?"
"I don't mind."
"kek, I'm going away from this place anyway……Okay. You got yourself a deal."
Apparently, the negotiations have been concluded.
Also, my human rights completely ignored.
Despite this, I'm surprisingly calm.
I was in this unfamiliar location, with no idea of destination nor any direction to run away from. As far as what that dork seller had said to me, I'll be likely the target of many.
Compared to that, it's much, much better to be bought by this beautiful woman.
Now that I have been bought, I think I'm going to be a slave from now on. I guess I have to prepare myself for when that happens.
'Is this okay with you?"
"Yes."
She seems to have written something like a cheque while I was thinking about such things.
I don't know how much ten large Manses are, but I think it's a lot of money.
This woman……just who on earth is she?
"With this, I have fully accepted the payment. I'm going back now."
The man dressed himself and tried to get out of the room.
But as soon as he reached the doorstep, he turned his face back. To me.
"I guess your fate isn't good after all, to be bought by such a disgusting woman."
――Don't bear a grudge against me.
He made that parting remark then disappeared.
Only I and Irene are left in the room.
"You said your name a while ago. Tomoaki Yushima, am I right? What a strange name. How do I call you?"
"Yes, you're correct……about what should you call me, how about Tomo?"
"Tomo-kun? Understood."
This time, Irene-san also introduced herself.
"My name is Irene Barbaton. This city, Blossom' s――mayor.
Where on earth did I get myself into?
