I’ve possessed the popular villain in a novel. So, I’m going all out.

Raniel, the promising wizard and the prospective owner of the most renowned magic tower in the kingdom, gives up his title and leaves to join a heroes’ party led by Kyle, the warrior. Along with the other members, Raniel sets out on adventures to slay the Demon Lord—the evil being who trampled his village long ago. He spends four years defeating the dark forces and grinding half of his life to save his team, only to find out that his effort has been in vain. Kyle suddenly kicks Raniel out of the party one day, claiming that their goals are different. Devastated after getting betrayed by his team, Raniel decides to return to the tower, but things grow worse when he runs into a succubus queen on his way back, gets cursed, and realizes… he has turned into a girl?!

“I really feel like having one of those special macarons from the cafeteria today. You think you could get me one?” I sit diagonally behind the heroine in class. I’m basically her errand boy. “We are [friends], after all.” …And I’m happy to do it.

I’ve been struggling for over a decade in this world where magic is equivalent to science. And now I’ve realized that my employer is the protagonist’s enemy. …Boss, can I quit my job?

I reunited with the girl who left me when I lost everything.

I saved the Warrior who used to ignore and bully me and now she is obsessed with me.

I dreamed of a life filled with romance¹ and romanticism, but I didn’t dream of a romance fantasy… —- ¹ The “Romance” here means a feeling or atmosphere of something new, special and exciting, e.g., a hero’s adventure.
