[Mostly Slice-of-Life Comedy]+ [Loli Succubus]+ [Sharp-Tongued Maid]
Prince Knox, the seventh prince, has a simple goal in life: slack off as much as possible and enjoy himself above all else.
On his twelfth birthday, he awakened a golden finger System. He thought he would finally embark on a glorious path to crush all who stood in his way, but the System’s first reward was stealing the succubus’s underwear from his own home.
Worse still, the templates that came with the stupid System could corrupt his personality. Equip the Kazuma template, and he would automatically want to become an underwear thief. Equip the Megumin template, and he would recite painfully over-the-top chuuni incantations in public.
After finally switching back to his original panel, he discovered that his royal brothers were all scheming, while powerful ministers at court watched him like hungry wolves.
Knox just wanted to coast through three years at the Royal Academy, eating his fill and waiting to die. Could someone tell him why everyone thought he was playing the pig to eat the tiger?
The deeper he was drawn into the empire’s whirlpool of power, the closer the mastermind’s grip tightened. All he wanted was to be a useless prince, yet through a combination of “absurdly good luck,” “one misunderstanding after another,” and “opponents who are just too incompetent,” he gradually found himself heading for the very seat he least wanted.
Years later, seated on the imperial throne and looking down at the nobles kneeling before him, Knox asked the question that haunted his soul: “Wait, how did I become emperor? I really just wanted to slack off!”
