Emotions are like a drug to us.

The more we experience them, the more we become addicted.

The hardest part is not letting them consume us.

But it's already too late for me.

I've already been swallowed whole.

I had no knowledge of the game. 

I was meant to have died. 

And yet, I found myself in this situation. 

A game I had never played before. A character I was unfamiliar with, and... A world that seemed to want to swallow me whole with every move I made. 

What the hell is going on?

...and who am I?

Advent of the Three Calamities

The request obviously took everyone by surprise.

It took a while to explain everything to her. Sitting in her office, she leaned back in her chair, her fingers tapping rhythmically against the table.

Sitting on the chair opposite her, I nodded my head.

Looking at her, she didn't seem very pleased with my stunt.

It couldn't be helped. I had to make sure everyone saw it. I was sure news of my actions was going to make its way into the ears of everyone in the Empire.

"...Our household can't afford to take on the deal openly. Given that we've just emerged from a large conflict, we had no choice but to resort to such a tactic."

Rosanna Astrid seemed more understanding when I explained to her a small part of our circumstances.
