Chapter 81
v2 Side Story 2
TLN: Another side story, again brought to my attention by bakapervert . This one’s a bit odd in terms of how it’s found . It’s not in the LN itself, but actually something you get when you submit an online feedback form that the back of the LN has a link to .
Marie PerseveringShe had no money .
Marie was in her room, at her wits’ end .
Marie, a person who had reincarnated, had snatched everything from the protagonist of that otome game, Livia──or at least she was supposed to .
She had the protagonist’s position .
She had ensnared the capture target boys and also obtained a handsome elf for an exclusive servant .
She was supposed to have taken away everything Livia was meant to have──but she had no money
“I don’t have any money . ”
She squeezed out a few brief words about her situation .
She was supposed to be surrounded by five rich people and live a life without any discomfort .
However, before she knew it, the five had become disinherited and no longer had any allowances .
The five no longer had money .
Her delusions of living a rich life were fading away .
“At this point, there’s no choice but to earn big at the school festival . ”
As the troubled Marie steeled her resolve, her exclusive servant Kyle shrugged his shoulders .
“Can students even earn money during the festival? Wouldn’t it be fine to just quietly earn money in the dungeon? That’s how everyone’s been doing it . ”
“Even if we earned cash from that, everyone would use it up immediately!”
The five had problems in terms of their sense for money .

They were originally the wealthy heirs of distinguished noble households .
It would be difficult if they were told to suddenly switch over to the life of a commoner .
However, it was a fact that the five were excellent .
They would be able to earn a certain amount if they entered the dungeon to hunt for treasures .
However, the problem was that they would use them soon after .
“Couldn’t you have those five earn for you, Master?”
(Did this guy just inadvertently admit that he doesn’t want to enter the dungeon?)
“That wouldn’t work . If I don’t keep an eye on those five, they’ll use up all of the money they earn in a day . We’ll have to make big earnings through the school festival . There are many rich people here, after all . The students sure have a lot of money . ”
“So, what attraction are you planning?”
“We’ll think about that afterwards . First, we need to gather information . ”
Marie, who believed that she would earn more by targeting girls, immediately began her research .
Marie, who went outside, observed the behavior of the academy’s schoolgirls .
While hiding with Kyle, she watched some girls who were shopping .
“How enviable . ”
An ideal sight laid before her eyes .
Tall, beautiful sub-race servants wore suits while accompanying the girls as they shopped .

There were also schoolboys nearby, taking the initiative to hold the girls’ bags .
Kyle made a face of disgust .
“How long does it take for them to choose a set of clothes? The boys holding their baggage are trembling . ”
The boys’ arms were reaching their limit while carrying the heavy luggage .
However, if they dropped them, they would have to buy them new ones and also wouldn’t be invited to shop with them in the future .
They desperately endured it for the sake of marriage .
Furthermore, all of the shopping expenses were paid by the boys .
“I want to have a day off like that as well . ”
It was Marie’s ideal scene .
The group went into a cafe next .
The boys lowered their heavy baggage, giving some resting time to rub their arms .
As for the girls──
“Look at them . They ordered really expensive sets . ”
All of the tea and sweets were high-class items .
The boys handled all of the payments .
Some of the girls were also feasting on snacks .
Though serving sizes were small, the prices were expensive and the girls didn’t hold back on their orders .

(I’m jealous . I’m sick of eating all three meals at the school cafeteria . )
Shopping and eating out on a day off .
It was a very envious sight for her .
Like that, they did some more shopping afterwards──continuing on until dinner, and once it became night, the boys were set free .
Marie had a little bit of sympathy for the boys who were being tasked with baggage carrying on a day off, but──
“Huh? Where are the girls heading?”
Something seemed odd .
Once the boys went back home, the girls took their exclusive servants to a street during the night .
As closing time approached, Marie thought for a bit while following them .
“Master, are you really going to keep chase?”
“I have no choice . I need to find out what the girls are using their money for . ”
Following the group of girls for the sake of research, she entered a dubious establishment .
Once Marie entered──
“Welcome, Milady . ”
──A beautiful butler greeted her .
“Mmph!”
Marie covered her mouth .
There were beautiful men everywhere inside the establishment .
It seemed that this was a place where employees wore butler’s clothing and provided service to girls .
Surveying the scene, she noticed that numerous academy schoolgirls were inside .
Butlers sat next to them, serving them food to eat .
An employee spoke .
“Is it fine for you to come here each day? This place is quite pricey . ”
A girl responded to the worrying employee .
“Don’t worry . Some boys are paying for us . They’ll gladly finance us if we just tell them that we have no money . Leaving that aside, you should be my lover . ”
“Eh~, don’t you pity the boys? Though, if that’s the case, you can dine with a peace of mind, I suppose . ”
Though she felt sympathy for the boys──Marie had one thought .
(This is iiiit!)
An image of Julian and the others dressed in suits popped up in Marie’s mind .
They were former heirs of prestigious nobles and were popular in the academy .
If they provided service, girls would definitely pay money .
“Kyle, I’ve got an idea . ”
Guessing what Marie was thinking of, Kyle made a very displeased expression .
“Are you thinking about doing something like this as an attraction for the school festival? Do you have permission?”
“It’ll be under the guise of a cafe . We’ll make Julian and co . ’s services an option . It will surely be profitable . ”
Thus, Marie had decided on an attraction for the school festival .
