Kyo, a young man in his twenties, used to lead a normal life, at least until recently. He was in his first year of college, with dreams and aspirations, but everything changed drastically. Two months ago, his parents had died in a tragic accident, and since then, his life had become crazy. He had been fired from his job, and now he was faced with the harsh reality of having no money to pay the rent. Sadness wrapped around him like a heavy blanket, and the thought of suicide had crossed his mind more than once. He felt that nothing in his life made sense anymore.
However, everything changed one night when he received a mysterious phone call.
The ringing of the cell phone woke him with a start, startled. Who would be calling him in the middle of the night? Kyo got out of bed cautiously, feeling a little annoyed. He grabbed the cell phone and noticed an unfamiliar number. He frowned in confusion, but finally pressed the button to answer.
—What is it? How annoying," he replied, holding a hand to his hair in irritation. It better be something important, or else he's dead.
Kyo remained silent, waiting for the person on the other end of the line to answer. He wondered how he had gotten her number. The wait became uncomfortable and, after a few seconds of silence, he began to feel like it was a bad joke. He tried to be patient, but the person never answered.
—Hello? —he said, confused.
Restart. Let the game begin.
Suddenly, Kyo's eyes snapped open and he looked around; nothing looked familiar. The ceiling of the room was red, and it wasn't his room. At that moment, he felt something different. Looking at his body, he noticed that he had.... bubbies? She stood up quickly, panicking. The sheets were around his body, and upon closer inspection, he realized that he was naked, only covered by those sheets.
"At what point did I fall asleep? What happened to that call, huh?"
He looked around again, confused. What was going on?
—What happened to my roof? —he asked himself, as panic began to set in. This doesn't look like my room, what the hell is going on, "Where am I?"
Kyo panicked completely. He looked around: he was in an elegant bed in a room he didn't recognize. He remembered that after answering that call, he fell asleep, but now he didn't know where he was. He felt the bed move and kept alert, averting his gaze in the direction where he had felt the movement. When he looked, he found a blond-haired boy, almost naked, smiling.
—Your Highness, are you awake? —she smiled kindly, looking at Kyo with joy.
"Who the hell is this guy? Well, I'll admit it though, he's too cute. Besides, what do you mean 'awake'?" Kyo was silent, staring in confusion at the handsome boy in front of him. The boy looked at him curiously and sat up in bed, climbing out of the sheets.
—Are you cold? Do you want me to warm you with a hug? —he asked, smiling and approaching Kyo.
"While half-naked? What's going on?"
—No! I'm fine! —replied Kyo, uncomfortably, beginning to tremble with confusion.
The boy paused as he watched Kyo react. His expression changed to one of sadness, and Kyo watched him with concern.
—Is there something wrong, your highness? —asked the boy, in a trembling voice, staring at Kyo. Did I-I make a mistake last night, or something?
—No, it's not that, but...
Before Kyo could finish his answer, the bed moved again. Confused, he turned to see what it was. Now, a red-haired man was moaning as he stepped out of the sheets in annoyance.
—How noisy," he complained, as he sat down on the bed.
"Is there another one? Is that what I think it is...? I was kidnapped by that person on the call and then he made me sleep with both of them."
Kyo couldn't help but look down out of curiosity. He was shocked to see that the man was as God had brought him into the world. He put his hand to his mouth in surprise. The man noticed the look on Kyo's face and, standing up, grabbed a shirt that was on a table and put it on, turning to look at Kyo with annoyance.
—What? Haven't you had enough? We did it all night-he looked at him with disdain.
—No!" he replied quickly, shaking his head, somewhat embarrassed. To be more specific, you were the one who showed first. Anyway, sorry, I really wasn't looking on purpose. "I was just killed by curiosity. At least both men are handsome, but that's not the point."
—What kind of vile game are you playing now? —he turned to Kyo, looking at him with annoyance.
—What do you mean by games? But still, and more importantly, could you fix your robe first! —uncomfortable, he pulled the covers over himself.
—Ha, I'm not in the mood for your mind games, so I'm out.
The man turned and ignored Kyo, walking toward the door of the room in annoyance. The maid curtsied and opened the door, but the man ignored the maid and slammed the door shut.
—No, wait! I need to know what's going on! What happened to my body? "I realize that I seem to have become a woman. What dream is this? What a temper that bastard has!"
—Your Highness! —he whispered softly, bringing Kyo out of his thoughts. I've made a mistake, it's all my fault, your highness, please spare my life, your highness, please! -tears began to fall down the cheeks of the boy, who looked down, pleading.
"His body is completely full of wounds, is he being abused? I know this is not the best time to worry about another person, but..."
—Don't do that. If you haven't done anything wrong, you shouldn't beg for forgiveness," said Kyo, concerned, as he wiped away the boy's tears. "I can't just ignore someone in front of me who is crying on their knees. I'm not like that."
The boy stopped crying and looked up, surprised to see Kyo, who smiled faintly at him.
—Do you understand? —Kyo repeated, worried.
—Yes," the boy nodded, stopping crying.
—Ah... —Kyo let out a relieved sigh.
"Now let's try to make sense of this situation. First of all, this room. Initially I thought it was a hotel room, but the belongings here indicate that someone lives here. Also, there's this man and the other guy. They are speaking a language I have never heard before. How can I communicate with them? Also, long red hair, girl's body... Wait! A girl? How did I not notice that from the beginning? This body doesn't belong to me. I'm a man, not a woman. Am I dreaming?"
Kyo was completely lost in thought. Why was he now a girl? Besides, where was she? At that moment, he watched as a window appeared in front of him, something like an advertisement. He looked at it with determination.
System
THE LAST PRINCE OF VERLOD
I swear his love to you!
He didn't have enough strength to defend himself, so he let himself be seduced by Princess Yederyia. You couldn't lose him after knowing the truth. He has come back to look for you so he can confess his sins and break up with you. Please save him from his despair!
—What is this? —Kyo, confused, looked at the strange notification and raised his hand. The boy looked at him, confused
—Your Highness? —he asked, perplexed.
—That thing that looks like a game screen floating in the air. Can you see it? —he pointed to the system, confused.
—The game screen? What's that? —the boy frowned, not knowing what Kyo was talking about.
"He can't see it? You'd better stop talking about it."
—No, it's nothing," Kyo shook his head. The boy was confused.
"First I must calm down. This strange game screen has named three people: him, you, and finally Princess Yederyia."
—Your Highness? -—he boy called out to Kyo.
—Do you happen to know who the man who left earlier was? —Kyo asked curiously, observing the boy.
—Oh, you mean Prince Ettesen of Verlod? —the boy smiled.
"The last prince of Verlod - how can that be? That's exactly what the in-game notification said."
The notification reappeared before Kyo's eyes, who no longer looked surprised. He realized that he was in the body of a girl inside a game. He looked at the options the system was giving him.
System
He refuses to be forgiven by you.
A) Go over and kiss him.
B) Treat him to the ground and start crying.
C) Hold on to him and confess your love.
"How can this be? My suspicions are right. Now I'm caught in a game? The mouse moves by itself and then that happened..."
Kyo looked at the game screen, somewhat irritated. Couldn't he have been stuck on one of the male protagonists? But on a woman. At that moment, another system notification appeared before his eyes.
System
The last prince of Verlod, congratulations on completing your mission! FOR SOME REASON A MISTAKE OCCURRED!
The words the system dialed caused Kyo's eyes to widen. He could no longer see the system notifications. He frowned in annoyance.
"An error? I'm a support character in a game that someone else is playing?!"
