What Should I Do in a World with Many Women and Few Men?

This is a world where women outnumber men, making up two-thirds of the total population.

It's a world where magic and technology coexist. You can buy magical sanitary pads from a vending machine, and see people piloting aircraft or riding broomsticks. Oh, sorry, miss, flying is prohibited here.

It's also a world where men wear Adam's apple covers, and women must earn enough social points before they can marry a man...

Our protagonist, Ji E, is lucky and unlucky enough to end up in this world, where she becomes the younger sister of the Federation Marshal.

Her mother teaches her to become a strong, independent woman who can hold up the sky. Her father says he hopes to hold a grandson soon, and asks which family's boy she wants to marry into. Her older sister tells her that with her around, Ji E will never need to be afraid.

Ji E plans to coast through life and eventually marry a sweet, pretty husband like any other privileged second-generation girl, carrying on the family fortune. But her sister sends her off to the Federation National Academy of Military Magic with a letter of recommendation.

Ji E intends to keep slacking off at the academy, but she accidentally discovers her roommates' secrets: one is a man disguised as a woman to enlist, one isn't human, and the last one...

The magic tournament is about to begin its selection round, and the academy requires everyone to compete. Through a series of coincidences, Ji E becomes captain of her magic squad and leads them to win the Interstellar League championship.

But the victory brings Ji E little joy: her sister has gone missing.

With the Federation Marshal missing, the president takes over the post, and a letter of appointment sends Ji E to the border.

Storm clouds gather over the capital in the distance, while the Zerg are poised to attack nearby. Her sister is nowhere to be found, and the reactionaries are stirring.

What should Ji E do?

Gripping the pendant her sister gave her, she finds a way forward with courage, conviction, love, and a sword.
