I Want To Become a Beautiful Girl, Be Pampered, and Live Life on Easy Mode!

My name in this life is Kurone Kurone, and I’m going to be a 4 years old kid tonight..

Initially, after being reborn as a girl in this new life, at first, I couldn’t keep up with the situation, I was a man in my previous life after all, but after living four whole years as a girl, I’ve come to accept it. Now, I can play with cute stuffed animals in one hand and play with girls. I don’t particularly resist the common age and gender changes in fiction.

Yes, I have a heart like flowing water, accepting and letting everything flow, just as it is.

“Koyoi-chan, Usa-chan won’t fight with Rider-san.”

“Yeah, it’s okay. In the end, the rabbit will win.”

“It’s not okay at all!”

What? Isn’t the point of playing house is about making the dolls fight!?

As I played with the dolls according to my heart, gradually, my friends started to decrease one by one around me.

Apparently, the problem lies in the fact that Rider doesn’t win against the rabbit plushie when they duel. I don’t get it.

It’s just playing house, so it doesn’t matter who wins!

After such a childhood, I entered elementary school early and graduated without any problems.

However, there’s one issue.

I was reborn with the wish to “become a beautiful girl and live life on easy mode while being pampered!” However, the current situation is not a life full of being pampered but a life of zero friends and being left alone.

Why did it turn out like this? Why!?

If it were the second playthrough of life, I thought I could dominate in a cheat-like state.

I thought if it was my second round of life, I would be able to cheat using my first life advantage and become unparalleled in this new life.

For example, I would capitalize on my second round of life and debut as a child actor, or perhaps master every traditional performing arts. But what about reality? Without accomplishing anything, I lived everyday leisurely.

Having said that, it means that I have no special skill or that I wasn’t born with a talent. Let alone 100 friends, it’s doubtful whether I could even have one.

Approaching my middle school entrance, I realized, I had realized.

Could it be that this life will also just pass by in vain…?

This can’t continue, it’s not good, it’s too bad.

I will make my middle school debut and live a pampered life…!

With that determination, three years passed!

“Tomorrow is the High school entrance ceremony.”

Right now, I’m in the third year of middle school, and I have yet to do any accomplishments!

Despite resolving to make my middle school debut and waiting every day for something to happen someday. With only that expectation in my heart, I was about to enter high school.

Yes, just having the right mindset is something.

Even if you’re reborn to live conveniently, your nature and the merciless world system remain unchanged.

I was about to enter high school!

“I am Kurone Koyoi. Um, my hobby is reading, and I don’t really have any special skills. Nice to meet you…”

This girl doesn’t learn.

She’s foolish and doesn’t learn no matter how far.

While her thoughts churn in her head, no words come out when she opens her mouth. And she’s completely inept at talking.

Hopeless, socially awkward…!

Once again, she fails to make a high school debut.

The sparse applause from around her is painful and stomach-churning in its emptiness.

“Then it’s my turn, right? I’m Haruto Kobayashi. In middle school, I played soccer. I like going out to play with friends and singing in karaoke. There are few people from my middle school who came to this high school. That’s why I want to make lots of friends. Feel free to add me on LINE, okay?”

“Haruto-kun, let’s exchange contacts–!”

“Yeah, me too!”

“Let’s go watch the soccer club together sometime!”

I-it’s too much.

The guy behind me, Kobayashi-kun, is just too sociable, it’s blinding.

I don’t want to be seen as the same as the noisy girls, so I stubbornly avoid turning around and start talking to him.

He’s already established his position in the class, his silky brown hair and sweet smile defining him. On top of that, he’s waving his hand around like he’s some famous person.

I don’t get the point of waving in the classroom, I just don’t understand it.

While feeling crushed by inferiority and pressure to the man behind me, the self-introductions continue after mine. In the end, I must have given the most forgettable self-introduction in the class.

And then, after the teacher’s detailed explanation, the class is dismissed.

I hold my bag, which has become significantly heavier with textbooks.

“Oh, you’re Kurone, right? We’re talking about going to karaoke together after this, would you like to join?”

The person addressing me is Kobayashi-kun.

“Um, well, that…”

“Oh, I see. Maybe you have other plans after this. Sorry for stopping you.”

“No, it’s okay…”

I stutter while talking to my classmate, and in the end, I part with him with a polite “ Okay.”

Isn’t this just too pathetic?

Let’s be careful not to lash out at Kobayashi-kun by mistake.

He’s genuinely concerned about me, and even if I can’t respond, he’ll make a way for me to leave if he sees that. Such a sociable and understanding guy is hard to come by. If there’s anything wrong with him, it’s probably the fact that he approached someone like me, who’s so socially inept, instead of the school flower.

Well, anyway, my entrance ceremony ended uneventfully.

Once in a lifetime, reborn for the second time. The entrance ceremony, which should greatly affect my future, has ended without me being able to do anything, despite my feelings.

“I’m home.”

But there’s no reply, of course.

When I return home, I immediately boot up my computer. While changing my clothes in the meantime, I engage in my daily routine of surfing the internet.

Silent in school, but typing away on the computer at home day and night. Ah, the best youth.

I casually scroll through daytime internet news and just tweet “I’m home” on my not-so-followed social media account.

Even if I don’t have real-life friends, I have a lot online, right? Well, that’s not really the case, and I still don’t have anyone I can call a friend here either. At most, I have shallow relationships where we exchange a word or two about games from time to time.

After finishing a certain routine, I move on to logging in to mobile games for bonuses and using stamina while absentmindedly clicking through various summary sites, randomly clicking on titles and jumping through links multiple times.

While skimming through articles with interesting titles, I find one that stands out on one of the sites.

“【Trending】The Current Hottest Virtual YouTubers!?!”

“Oh, it’s that time already.”

I often forget, but I’m a reincarnated individual.

And this world isn’t a fantasy world or a modern world with novelistic abilities. It’s just an ordinary world.

However, it’s not identical to my past life in every aspect, with unfamiliar famous people mingling with familiar ones and even cases where hugely influential figures have disappeared. So, I interpret this as a parallel world to my past life.

Now, here comes the important part.

The current year is 2017.

And my past life extended until 2020.

In other words, my reincarnation isn’t just any TS reincarnation, it’s a specific genre called “Genderbend Modern World Reincarnation.”

Well, I understand the sentiment of saying, “If you’re going back, you should use future knowledge to your advantage.” I do the same when reading web novels and such. But hey, this world is a similar parallel world. There’s Kamen Rider, but no Super Sentai; there’s Final Fantasy, but no Dragon Quest. Heck, Oda Nobunaga is a woman here and called Nobu-hime.

In a world like that, I can’t just use future knowledge and be like, “I’m going to be a billionare!” I graduated from that mindset when I was 4 years old.

Anyway, I digress.

Speaking of 2017, it marked the dawn of Vtubers, which is unforgettable for us otaku.

Vtubers, which had gone unnoticed until then, exploded in popularity thanks to a certain event at the end of the year.

And even in this life, Vtubers exist without any issues.

However, the Vtuber referred to as the “Big Boss” is absent, and in her place, a replacement Vtuber stands, continuing to fight on the front lines.

Considering past experiences, even if that event at the end of the year didn’t happen, history tends to follow a somewhat similar path. So, I think Vtubers will likely become popular from this point onwards.

Maybe I should make some preemptive investments and prepare to show my support as a long-time fan from the early days… Well, it’s still April, so I can leave it for a while.

While thinking about such things, I continue to browse another summary site.
