When Can My Secret Identities Have a Tea Party?

[The entire story costs just one cup of Mixue Ice Cream & Tea. Thanks to all the lovely readers supporting the official release.] At first, she simply wanted to find a seaside home to retire in. So Mikawa Nao frantically created secret identities, trying to save her original self from disaster. But she wasn’t very good at it: Her first secret identity was created a thousand years in the past, and she was offered up as a sacrifice to the King of Curses from the start. Her second secret identity was born with a severe disability and taken in by a flock of little sheep. She couldn’t travel far at all. Her third secret identity became a cursed spirit hunted by everyone. Hiding from place to place and staying alive was already a victory. What more could she ask for? Wiping the tears from her face, Mikawa Nao kept trying. Being a sacrifice was fine. She just needed to use her charisma to turn the King of Curses into a true friend. Being disabled was fine. She just needed to use her charisma to become the beloved darling of Yokohama’s biggest power. Being a cursed spirit was fine. She just needed to use her charisma to become best buddies with the strongest human. After countless trials and tribulations, Mikawa Nao finally brought her original self and all her secret identities together to begin a new, happy life. But then: A certain King of Curses sensed a familiar soul and broke into a sinister grin inside the pink-haired boy’s innate domain. A certain bandage-wrapped man tried to take away a treasure, only to be kicked flying by a gravity manipulator. A certain strongest human claimed he was keeping an eye on a special-grade cursed spirit, but actually clung to them twenty-four hours a day. Etc. Watching all sorts of people mooch food, lodging, and a place to sleep at her seaside home, while occasionally getting into fights, Mikawa Nao and her secret identities huddled together on the sofa and fell into deep thought: What was I trying to do in the first place? tips: 1. The focus is on family, friendship, and being doted on by everyone. No romance in the main story; the extra chapters pair her with Geto. 2. The timeline is all over the place. Extreme OOC warning, in bold and bright text. 3. The main story is purely about friends and family. It contains no LT tendencies whatsoever and firmly rejects this kind of disorder.

Countless players arrive in this virtual world, which is practically a second reality. Random character roles are assigned, main quests are issued, and the faction war quietly begins. Player No. 1: I got a Black Organization role! I’m so excited to play a villain for the first time. Watch me do something evil: tonight, I’m shaving the beard off the Scotland in the next bed! Player No. 2: It really takes me back to first grade, but why does that kid with glasses keep staring at me? Did they find out I’m doing real-world calculus homework in the game? Player No. 3: Thanks for asking. I died peacefully. Hard-earned lesson: if you’re playing an old person, don’t let a kind Russian help you cross the street. Player No. 4: I turned into a dog from the start. I thought that was bad enough. But just as I was about to eat, some bandage guy rushed over and stole all the dog food… Which one of us is the dog here?! As a player on the Black Organization’s side, Kawakami Aishier discovers that ever since a Science buff appeared in her stats, every mission the Organization gives her somehow gets completed without a hitch. Her targets are murdered or die in bizarre accidents before she even has a chance to act. And she, the well-meaning citizen who always happens to be at the scene and repeatedly helps the police solve cases, has somehow become a famous “justice” detective despite being on the Black Organization’s side! Years later, after rising through the ranks to become the Organization’s BOSS, she looks at the witness protection plan that the 1, 2, 3, and 4 fake-liquor NPCs have placed in front of her, her hand trembling slightly as she holds the paper. This isn’t a romance game, is it?! Theme: Try different possibilities and make your way toward a better life
