5 You shall give up lands to secure autonomy. You shall be insertive instead of losing your manhood to anyone!

'You idiot, I'm so worried that you'd be topped when I'm not there with you! I've been thinking about it for a while, whether you're a top or a bottom…don't be topped so easily in that world!!'

That night…I dreamt about my younger sister from my past life—who was a crazy fujoshi.

I assume it is because of Nigel's words that stressed me out to the point of imagining things. Even though I have already quit the younger sister community, I still miss her a lot. In reality…sometimes I would still prefer a younger sister over a younger brother.

'You crazy fujoshi, we haven't seen each other for so long and the first thing you do is scolding me? Don't you miss me or anything?!'

'Why would I miss you? An older brother who is only worth two assistants…I won't miss him.'

What an unlovable younger sister.

'You idiot, though I love Nigel after Hareve Lancelot, you shouldn’t get close to Nigel if possible. For now, I think…his level is too high.'

'Are you saying that he is out of my league?'

My younger sister looks at me with a disapproving gaze. 'How come you are my older brother?! You've been with me for such a long time. I've exposed you to a ton of BL anime, not to mention all the 18+ doujinshis we helped each other to draw. It is clear that you have more experience than any of the guys in Ushinawareta Hoshi! But look at you now, being all stressed out just because Nigel flirted back with you!'

'You idiot, I'm an ordinary guy who likes girls, getting a reply like that from a guy would surely stress me out!'

'You idiot, you still dare to say that you're just an ordinary guy? For a guy who is overly attached to his sister, you even have me wondering whether you'll be able to get married or not!' My fujoshi sister frowns before pouting. 'By the way, you know that Ushinawareta Hoshi is a BL game, right?'

'I know, otherwise, I wouldn't be stressing out this much!'

'And do you know that it is an H kind of game[1]'

'Hmph, of course, I…what?! Wait, you idiot, H game…you were playing an adult game?!!'

'Don't look at me like that, I'm already a grown-up! Besides, I'm just trying to study anatomy! Tsk, don't nag me. So basically, Ushinawareta Hoshi is a BL game with those scenes…you understand what I'm about to say, right? Once you've entered Cass's route or Nigel's 3P route, it will not be just a normal making-out session, but instead, it will be…ahem! Ahem!'

'You idiot, I will kill you if I'm still alive!'

'What've I done wrong? Anyway, a younger sister is always generous, therefore, I won't take it to heart.' My fujoshi sister grins widely. 'Of course, due to the popularity of this game, ahem! Ahem! It is not just a simple game! You really underestimated a fujoshi like me! Chains, whips, and handcuffs are just the basics!'

'I will kill you, you little brat!'

'As if you can, huh! What I want to say is, try to avoid those routes! All else, you are screwed!!' My younger sister put on a serious expression. 'That's why an experienced fujoshi like me is here to give you advice!'

'Advice?' I do not trust her at all.

'Yuppp, since we used to be siblings in the past, I'm here to tell you that…ahem!' My younger sister smiles wickedly. 'If you don't prefer to be a bottom, then…be a top!'

'What????!!'

'If you don't wanna lose your manhood, then you shall be insertive!!'

'Huh???!!'

'How stupid…if you don't want to be the uke, then be the seme instead! Keep on flirting! Keep on dropping hints! Being a seme is easy. No pain, no ache, but supreme joy!'

I pull the most disgusted face at my younger sister. 'Why did I always succumb to your wishes, you fujoshi? That's why you've grown up to become this weirdo who's beyond recovering…'

I would like to express my sincere sorrow.

My fujoshi sister scowls before crossing her arms. A slight 'tsk' indicates that she is sulking. 'I've already warned you. No matter what will happen to you after this…I won't care anymore!'

After listening to her advice…I think it will be better if she doesn’t care about me!

When my fujoshi sister notices that I don’t apologize, she pouts before mumbling softly, 'I really miss you.'

I become silent as I try to adjust my emotions. 'I also miss you.'

'I…' She bites her lip before resuming to look at me. 'About Cass Bedivere, just don’t do anything to prevent him from being born!'

My mother in this life is already pregnant. If I want to prevent Cass from being born, then I will need to make her miscarry…sis, your brother is not that evil!

'There's no time left. Mark my words…’

'…'

'…Be a top!'

'You idiot, if you only come to say this, then don’t come!'

---------------

After a short period of time, I have finally become a seven-year-old child…

At that same time, Cass Bedivere was born amid the glee of my father and mother. Oh, and also mine too!

Dear god! Have you just created a younger sister for me?! Why is this kid so adorable! I used to think that Nigel was the most adorable younger brother until Cass was born as if to prove the proverb, 'blood is thicker than water'. Naturally, Cass is better than Nigel!

With light golden hair that is slightly wavy and golden doe eyes…he is so cute! Even though he is a boy, his cuteness is able to surpass my fujoshi sister and Nigel combined together—and by two-fold even!

“You look very disgusting.” Hareve, who seldom visits Bedivere Mansion, said before leaning over to see my little angel. “He looks like you…but a lot more good-looking.”

“Of course! Cass is the most beautiful child!” I puff out my chest. In all honesty, I want to tell him that even his own beauty is no match for Cass’ in the slightest…but when I look at his feet…I think I shouldn’t.

I need to stay alive for a long time in order to be an obstacle for any guy who dares to flirt with my younger brother! Both Hareve and Nigel are my enemies! They are pests that try to get close to my brother! Therefore, I should get rid of…oh right, I am unable to do that. Never mind, I will just try to get in their way instead!

“Cass is very adorable.” Nigel flashes me a smile before smiling at Cass, who innocently looks back at him. Don’t use your good looks on someone else's younger brother! “He really looks like you. I bet he will look similar to you when he grows up.”

“I hope that his personality will not be the same when he grows up.” Hareve shakes his head. “If there are two Gilbert Bediveres, then it's clearly karma for the Bedivere family.”

I am not that bad. I just don’t study hard, don’t often read books…er…I need to study when I grow up anyway. A kid should act like a kid! Why would I act intelligent or powerful to attract problems?

I was granted a new life, so why should I make myself become outstanding to increase my burden? For me, living happily is the best thing. As for the complicated things like defeating the demon lord, fighting against injustice, rescuing a princess, etc., just let the protagonists or the skillful people handle them!

“By the way…Cass should be able to receive baptism at the holy sanctuary on either this upcoming Sunday or Monday, right?” Nigel turns to me as I raise my eyebrow. Baptism? “I wonder who Cass’ guardian spirit would be.”

I really wanted to exclaim in bewilderment, “What?” But Hareve cut me off. “Apart from our generation, many years ago, the youngest member among all of the twelve ducal families right now is Cass Bedivere…maybe all twelve of us can finally meet.”

“I agree.” Nigel smiles softly…both of them understand, but I don’t!

I try to dig into my memory about the six seasons of anime I used to watch (of course, I didn’t play the game). Although the story began when Cass Bedivere attended the magical school at the age of fifteen, the baptism…oh!

Baptism in my former world is a Christian rite of admission and adoption. Each person will have a patron saint after the rite. But this game slightly altered the rite to make it more fantasy, in which we will get to know the guardian spirit, who is our partner after baptism. Even though they are our partners, nobody can use them.

Moreover, we can actually use them in a dire situation, like in many animes. When the adrenaline is secreted, that’s when our true abilities are awakened! Bam!! Then our guardian spirits will appear…just like that.

For Gilbert Bedivere, he is able to call his guardian spirit out when he is fighting to protect his younger brother. Then, after that, he confesses the feeling he has been hiding for his whole life… But, hm, judging by my personality, if there is danger in front of me, I will…

Be the first person to run.

Ah…I’m sorry, my guardian spirit. I don’t think you will have a chance to come out.

I gaze at Nigel. If I remember correctly, his guardian spirit is the spirit of ice, while Hareve gets the spirit of light. In my previous world, the spirit of light is a common spirit that is reserved for only the protagonists! But in this world, it could be a super powerful spirit…well, whatever. The gap between my status and their status is so wide.

I pour some tea into a ceramic cup. After living in this world, I’ve become addicted to drinking tea. “There’s no female being born into any of the twelve ducal families in our generation, right?”

“Ah, yes…” Hareve rubs his own face before making a bored expression. “Normally, a member from one ducal family will get married to a member from another ducal family. But when there’s no female in our generation…I can imagine what will happen after we grow up…this is bad…”

An image of a group of women from the margravial families down to the baron families comes into my mind… I sip my tea while looking at Nigel, who is already frozen. He will have a lot to deal with.

By the way…if I attend this rite, it means that I will meet the owners of other routes in Ushinawareta Hoshi…

If I am Gilbert Bedivere, who is the owner of the immoral love route, then…

Does it mean that this rite will be a meeting of all the future love rivals?
