Villainess Is Changing Her Role To A BroCon

“I am Selene called Selene.”

Selene was the name of a beautiful woman who lived on the moon and played the lyre in the mythology of this world. It seems to have been a popular name in the past and was often seen in classical literature.

“I am glad that you don’t seem to be afraid of me.”

“Aurora-sama told me you were a kind person who guided a lost child.”

Honestly, though, it was more like a dream.

Mina, the knights, the Forest People, and even Regina and her hounds have not awakened from their slumber, and the surrounding forest was quiet. This was probably because of Selene’s influence. I felt as if I, too, had been rendered numb.

“Well, I am pleased. Most people who see me tend to describe me as very frightening.”

Leaning close to the horse, her cheek was buried in the silver mane as Selene said softly.

…I wondered if this really was the girl who once eradicated her enemies to avenge her clan.

But when I looked down, I saw a dark stain on the simple white dress she was wearing. The Maiden of Death, as legend has it, was clad in a blood-red corpse robe.

“You are so clever. However, keep your distance from me.”

Fufu, Selene smiled.

She tilted her head and looked at me with her faintly glowing eyes.

“I’m sorry to call you out like this. But I found you to be a strange existence – your soul. I have lived in this world for two thousand years and I have never seen a soul like yours before. You are something different from everyone else. What are you?”

Ekaterina took a deep breath.

Excuse me, I was just a Villainess. Can I just answer that?

No, probably not. That Otome Game was not set around 2,000 years ago, so it would not be understood. I mean, even now, 2,000 years later, it would still be incomprehensible to say “Otome Game” in this world. Even though this world was an Otome Game.

No, I should just answer the question directly, my real self.

“I am…”

Saying so, I took a breath and said the rest boldly.

“I have memories of my previous life.”

I never thought that the day would come when I would say such a dubious thing to someone….

But the other person was also a supernatural being called the Maiden of Death!

It would be impossible for me to lie or deceive her when she stared at me with those eyes.

“Memories of a previous life.”

After mumbling to herself, Selene shook her head.

“There have been people like you before, but there’s something different about you. You stand out so much. It’s like a melody I’ve never heard before, like a strange colored light is shining through you. Something… different from anyone I’ve ever met. Something subtly out of place in this world. That’s what I couldn’t help but notice, and that’s why I came here to see you like this.”

Uwah.

Was it so obvious… sort of?

“Maybe it’s because… the world in which I was living in my previous life was a different world, not this one.”

Selene’s eyes widened at Ekaterina’s resigned words.

“Another world?”

“First, the world in which I lived my previous life seemed to have more advanced technology than this world. In a few hundred years, this world may reach a level similar to the world in my previous life. Above all, in the world of my previous life, there was no magic power. There were no magical beasts, and there were no gods who have ever shown themselves before people.”

Selene seemed crestfallen. She looked up at the black horse, interlaced her fingers in its silver mane, and shook her head.

“…I can’t imagine that happening.”

“I suppose so.”

In a world where God did not exist, she would be an impossible existence, having wished upon the God of death to stay in this world. Her reaction may not be unreasonable.
