https://ncode.syosetu.com/n5562hc/12/ Motive When I woke up, I was lying in a bed. Not in my room. And someone else is sitting on this bed with me. The memories of wrestling with Peony and hitting my head in the bath quickly flooded back into my mind. It should've been my head that got hit, yet it … Continue reading Hero Audition Ch. 12 →

https://ncode.syosetu.com/n5562hc/11/   Shower I want to take one sniff before she gets in the bath. Before the smell is washed away. I almost dropped the change of clothes in my hands while my thoughts were running. Lily was watching me with confused eyes. You've already labeled me as a pervert, so why can't you feel … Continue reading Hero Audition Ch. 11 →

https://ncode.syosetu.com/n5562hc/10/ Peerless I climbed up the underused stage. I could hear the wood squeak beneath my weight, and I worried whether I would make a hole into it. I'm not that heavy, and I would hate for people to think of me as heavy just because of some old, decomposing wood. Well, Rose is the … Continue reading Hero Audition Ch. 10 →

https://ncode.syosetu.com/n5562hc/9/ Dinbula The hero candidates were gathered in a conference room the next day. Heath was standing in front of us and just started talking when it looked like we were all there. "Before you begin your first assignment, it is necessary for everyone to improve their abilities past where they currently stand. Your training … Continue reading Hero Audition Ch. 9 →

https://ncode.syosetu.com/n5562hc/8/ Hierarchal Relationship "A.....A pervert.....you have the wrong person?" Obviously I know what she's talking about. I was enthusiastically sniffing her during our dance. I was doing my best to not make it obvious, but I guess it was all in vain. "Did I smell that good, Ms. Pervert?" "Hah.....let me go....." "I won't. It's … Continue reading Hero Audition Ch. 8 →

https://ncode.syosetu.com/n5562hc/7/ Punishment The noble dance began with Lily Ruhuna playing the male role while I danced the woman's. It's an easier time for me than with Olive since I no longer need to lead. Right away I could tell Lily Ruhuna was a better dancer than Olive. There was no hesitation in her footwork, and … Continue reading Hero Audition Ch. 7 →

https://ncode.syosetu.com/n5562hc/6/ Dance Party I have a gut feeling I'm being made a fool of. It's something so far the outside of my norms that I can't understand it. So if I accept the offer, it'll probably turn out fine. But I am a dancer. Dance skill is the pride of my family. That's probably why … Continue reading Hero Audition Ch. 6 →

https://ncode.syosetu.com/n5562hc/5/ Dinner Party "W-......Well, you never know what is going to happen. It may all come down to whatever the assignment is." "Hmph. You're as easygoing as my sister aren't you? Well, whatever. Try your hardest." Peony left us with those words and a glass of sake in one hand. I'm surprised she's of age … Continue reading Hero Audition Ch. 5 →

https://ncode.syosetu.com/n5562hc/4/ Commoner Dance As I took the stage, the hall began to buzz. A dancer's garments are, in essence, not that different from what you'd expect to see a hostess wear. Since a woman who happens to be her hero candidate is wearing something like that, of course the audience will react. There are people … Continue reading Hero Audition Ch. 4 →

https://ncode.syosetu.com/n5562hc/3/ Debut Assembly The "surprise announcement" of the 51st contestant certainly surprised everyone, but Heath began explaining how the first round would work without paying anyone any mind. The basic flow is the same as the first and second auditions with contestants working together to complete requests as the kingdom uses newspapers to disseminate your … Continue reading Hero Audition Ch. 3 →
