「ぶひぃっ!!!」
強烈な痛みが頬に走る。殴られた衝撃でその場に倒れ込む。
(え? なに、何が起きたの? 何で俺は殴られてんの!?)
自分が何故殴られたのか、さっぱり理解できない男は周囲を見回して状況を整理しようとする。
しかし、今も混乱している男に一人の男が近付く。殴られて混乱している男が近付いて来る男に気がついて顔を上げる。
(だ、誰? もしかして俺を殴ったのはこいつか!?)
殴った相手はわかったが殴られた原因がわからない上に、どうやら話は終わってないらしい。何故ならば、彼はまだ怒っているのだから。
「よく聞け! 二度とクラリスに関わるな! そして、俺たちの前から消えろ!」
「は、はひぃ......」
あまりの剣幕に殴られて地べたに座り込んでいる男は情けない声を上げる。
(なんで、俺こんなに怒られてんの......)
怒り狂っていた赤髪の男は座り込んでいる男の返事を聞いて、怒りを収めると鼻を鳴らして男の前からいなくなる。
これで、やっと自分の置かれた状況が確認できると座り込んでいる男は立ち上がる。改めて周囲を見回すと、見たこともない服装に身を包んだ少年少女達が自分を囲んでいた。
(なんぞ、これ......)
しかも、よく見てみるとライブ会場のようになっていて観客席に沢山の人がいる。冷静に見ても異質な光景である。
ますます混乱してしまう男は一旦、冷静になろうと深呼吸する。
(落ち着け、落ち着け俺。まず、なんでこんなことになってるかだ。今日あったことを思い出してみよう)
まず、男は殴られる直前まで何をしていたかを思い出した。
(うーん、確か俺はエロゲ超大作と呼ばれている
運命48
驚くべきなのは四十八人のシナリオライターに四十八人のイラストレーターを起用して作られたことだ。莫大な制作費に消費者達も驚愕に言葉が出なかったほどである。
さらに言うと、有料DLCで追加シナリオに攻略ヒロイン増加という事まで行い、最終的には六十四人ものヒロインを攻略出来た。
(発表された時は驚いたよな。有名なシナリオライターに神絵師で当時は大盛り上がりだった。でも、俺は学生だったから買うことが出来なかったな......
でも、社会人になって初任給で買った時は嬉しかった)
物思いに耽る男だが、今は関係ないと切り替える。
(そうだ。俺は運命48を長期休暇を利用して徹夜でプレイしてたんだ。有料DLCも購入して六十四人もの物語をクリアしたところで、眠ったんだっけ......)
ようやく回想が終わる。男は一つの答えに辿り着いた。
そうだと分かれば話は早い。目を覚ませばいいだけの事だ。
「レオルド・ハーヴェスト!」
唐突に大声が響く。ビクリと男が肩を震わせる。それは何度も聞いたことのある名前だからだ。
だって、その名前は――
「俺がレオルド・ハーヴェスト......!」
――運命48に出てくる、かませ犬キャラなのだから。
よもや、Web小説でよく読んでいた異世界転生に自分がなるとは思いもしなかったことであろう。
(待て待て!! レオルドは序盤で主人公のジークフリートに決闘を挑んで負けた挙句、学園退学並びに辺境へ追放される! しかも、攻略ヒロインによってはラスボスになるけど、全ルートで死亡が確定しているんだぞ!
し、死にたくねえ!!!)
「何をしている! レオルド・ハーヴェスト! 決闘に負けたのだから、速やかに自室へと戻りなさい!」
「は、はい......」
抗う気力はない。今はこの現状をどうするべきかと考えるだけだ。異世界転生するなら、赤ん坊の頃からしたかったとレオルドに転生した
(どうしたものか......)
自室へと戻った仙道真人ことレオルドはベッドに寝転びながら考える。
真人の時に運命48を完全クリアしているから全てのシナリオは頭に入っている。だからこそ、死亡が確定しているレオルドになった真人は頭を悩ませるのだ。
この先、どうやって生きていけばいいのか全くわからないのだ。どうせ死ぬのだから、好き勝手生きたいという気持ちもあるが、レオルドは一つ不安な要素がある。
「世界の強制力があるのかな......」
Web小説で何度も見かけた言葉、世界の強制力。死ぬはずだった運命に抗おうとしたら、世界が死なせようとしてくるのだ。
自分も例外ではないとレオルドは思っている。だから、余計に悩んでしまう。
「いっその事、今死ぬか? はっ、無理だな。そんな度胸はない」
自暴自棄なことを呟くものの実行する勇気はレオルドにはない。ゴロゴロとベッドの上を転がり、何も考えが浮かばないで時だけが過ぎていく。
そして、どれだけの時間が過ぎたかは分からないがレオルドはベッドから降りる。
自室に備えられた姿見で真人はレオルドの身体を見た。
「イラスト通りの身体だな。贅肉だらけで顎がなくなってる。金の豚とはよく言ったものだ」
レオルドになった真人は知っている。レオルドは公爵家という身分の高い人間であると同時に自尊心が強く傲慢な性格をしている。
そのおかげで傍若無人の限りを尽くして生きてきたから、ぶくぶくと太ってしまい、陰で金髪だから金の豚と呼ばれているのだ。
「はあ......」
「決めた......決めたぞ! 俺はなんとしてでも生き延びてやる! 世界の強制力がなんぼのもんじゃい! こっちはラスボスになれる力を秘めてるんだぞ!!!」
手を上に突き出して虚空を掴む。レオルドは知っていた。自身に秘められた可能性を。それらを駆使して生き延びる事を決意したのだった。
Ch 1
"Buhhhh!!!"
A strong pain shot through my cheek. The impact of the blow made me fall on the spot.
(What? What's going on? Why am I being beaten up?)
The man, who had no idea why he had been hit, looked around and tried to understand the situation.
The beaten and confused man looks up when he noticed another man approaching him. This man had bright red hair; his head was pointing and looking down at the beaten man with a look of rage on his face.
(Who is this?!...Could this guy be the one who hit me?!)
The man on the ground knew who hit him, but he couldn't figure out why he was hit. Furthermore, it appeared that the angry red haired man was not done talking to him.
"Listen to me! Don't ever get involved with Clarice again! And stay the hell away from us!"
"Ha, ha, ......."
The beaten man on the ground was being scolded pathetically.
(Why is he so angry?...)
The angry red-haired man heard the reply of the man sprawled on the ground, which was when his anger subsided a bit. he then huffed and walked away from the man's presence.
The man stood up, finally able to see his surroundings. When he looked around again, he saw that he was surrounded by boys and girls dressed in clothes he had never seen before.
(What the heck is this? ......)
Furthermore, if you looked closely, you can that where all this is taking place looks like a big stage with many people in the present acting as an audience sitting in their seats around the stage. It was a strange sight to say the least (an arena?!).
The man, who was getting more and more confused, took a deep breath in an attempt to calm himself down to better assess the situation.
(Calm down me. First of all, what and why is this happening? Let's think about what happened today.)
In order to understand what is going on , the man started recalling what happened on that day; First, the man remembered what he had been doing just before he was hit.
(Hmmm, I believe I was playing Destiny 48, which is known as an eroge blockbuster.)
Destiny 48, as the man called it, is an eroge created by a long-established eroge company that wanted to create a masterpiece that would go down in history.
What's amazing is that it was created with forty-eight scenario writers and forty-eight illustrators. The huge production cost left even consumers speechless with astonishment.
To top it all off, they even added paid DLC for additional scenarios and heroines, and in the end, and in total the game had 36 capture target
(I was surprised when it was announced, wasn't I? With famous scenario writers and divine painters, it was a big deal at the time. But I was a student, so I couldn't buy it. ......)
(But I was happy when I bought it with my first paycheck as a working adult.
I'm a pensive guy, but I'll switch it up if it doesn't matter now.
(Yes, I know. I was up all night playing Fate 48 over the long weekend.  I even bought the paid DLC and fell asleep after completing the story of sixty-four characters. ......)
Finally, the recollection ends. The man had arrived at a possible answer.
Once he concluded that he was dreaming, the solution was easy. All he had to do was wake up, so the man pinched his cheek, but he didn't wake up. Then it dawned on him that he should have realized that it was already a reality since he felt the hit from the red haired man.
"Leolde Hervest!"
A loud voice suddenly rang out. The man's shoulders shook with fear. It's a name he's heard many times before.
Because that name is--
"I am Leolde Harvest ......?!"
--I'm the underground dog character in Fate 48.
He never imagined that he would end up in reincarnated in another world, something that he had read so much about in web novels.
(Wait, wait, wait! Leolde challenged the hero Siegfried to a duel in the early stages of the game, and after losing, he was expelled from the school and banished to the frontier! In addition, depending on the heroine, he may become the final boss, but he's guaranteed to die in all routes!)
(I don't want to die! ... No matter how much I scream in my heart, reality is ruthless. No matter how much I scream in my mind, reality is cruel). A shout echoes through the motionless Leolde.
"What are you doing Leolde Harvest?! You lost the duel, so get back to your room as soon as possible!'
"Y-y-yes......."
(I don't have the energy to resist. All I can do now is to think about what I should do about this situation. If  was going to be reincarnated into another world, I wanted to do it from when I was a baby)  thought  men , who was reincarnated into Leoldo, leaving the venue with his shoulders slumped.
(What's going on? ......)
Leoldo, , returned to his room and laid down on his bed to think.
Since he had completely cleared Destiny 48  in his  past life, he had all the scenarios and what was to going to happen in the future in his mind. That's why he, who is now Leolde, is troubled by the fact that his death has would be something guaranteed.
He has no idea how he is going to live his life. Since he is going to die anyway, he wants to live as he pleases, but there is one thing that worries Leolde.
"does this world has a will of its own? ......?"
A word  he seen many times in web novels: the will of the world. If you try to resist the fate that you were supposed to die, the world will try to have you die.
Leolde believes that  he  is no exception to this rule. That's why he worries even more.
"What if I were to die now? I can't do that. I don't have the guts."
Although he muttered something desperate, he did not have the courage to do it. He rolled around on the bed, and time passed by without any thought coming to mind.
He  doesn't know how much time has passed, but he gets out of bed.
He looked at the mirror in his room and saw Leolde's body.
He said, "Your body looks just like the illustration. It's full of flab and the chin is nowhere to be seen. A   gold pig as  they said ".
He, who had become Leolde, knew. He is a duke and a man of high status, but at the same time, he has a strong ego and an arrogant personality.
Because of this, he has lived his life in indulgence and has gained a lot of weight., people call him the golden pig behind his back because of his blond hair.
"Sigh. ......"
"I've decided! I'm going to survive this at all costs! I don't care what the world wants! This one has the power to be the last boss!"
He thrust his hand upward and grasped the void.  He knew the potential that was hidden within him. He was determined to use it to survive.
