The Empress, who had been silently listening to Duke Hamelton, asked in a cool voice.
“Are you done, Duke?”
His heated tone subsided with her calm, cold voice. Realizing his overexcitement, he twitched nervously.
However, he persisted, “It’s a clear mistake for Your Majesty, who should be the fairest of all, to show favoritism!”
“So, you have a complaint about my decision?”
“…….”
Duke Hamelton bit his lower lip, unable to affirmatively respond.
The Empress, looking tired, pressed her temples with her fingertips.
“This doesn’t seem like an appropriate conversation for a joyous occasion. We’ll talk about this later.”
Eventually, Duke Hamelton had to retreat, having only earned the Emperor’s ire.
The Empress glanced briefly at Luibel.
It seemed her displeasure might reach Luibel too, who discreetly avoided her gaze.
[SYSTEM] is worried about you.Huh…?
Disbelieving the system window that popped up, Luibel looked up again.
But the Empress had already shifted her attention and was receiving other guests’ congratulations.
‘Did I see that wrong?’
Blinking her eyes, Luibel looked at the system window again.
But it was no mistake.
The message ‘ is worried about you’ still floated before her eyes.
Though Duke Hamelton instigated the situation, it was because Luibel received the Empress’s sword that he acted this way.
If Gloria or Elizabeth had received the sword, the Duke wouldn’t have reacted so strongly.
That’s why Luibel thought the Empress’s anger might also be directed at her…
“Are you alright, Princess?”
Anselot, who had returned, glared coldly at Duke Hamelton and asked Luibel.
“Well…”
Luibel trailed off noncommittally.
I had been used to being ignored by other nobles since I was young. Now, receiving unexpected concern from my mother, well… I just let it be.
“Not particularly?”
“…I’m not unaffected, though.”
Anselot muttered in a low voice.
‘It’s strange. Why does Anselot seem angry?’
As I was tilting my head in confusion, the system window started to express anger too.
[How dare they belittle our player! We can’t let this go, Player. Let’s strike back at those jerks!!! ★o(・д´・+)9”]“Forget it. Even so, I’m not starting any scenario.”
[It’s not about starting a scenario! The player’s functions can be used regardless, right? ୧༼◔益◔୧ ༽]It almost seemed like I could hear an indignant voice in my head.
[Use the player’s privileges for revenge at times like these! (`д´)ゝ]“Huh? I hadn’t really considered revenge…”
“Ho, that’s a good idea.”
Anselot, stroking his chin, looked at the system window with interest.
[Yes, yes(ʃƪ ˘ ³˘) A human with good taste… Kieeeek! What! ?(°Д°≡°Д°)? How can a normal human see me? Aaaah, Player, save me! ε=ε=(っ´□`)っ]The system window started to tremble.
“My eyes hurt…”
Following my comment, it disappeared dejectedly.
‘But really, the text was shaking so much, it hurt my eyes.’
Regardless, Anselot, unconcerned, asked me.
“Princess, do you have any useful items? Like what you got last time after catching the octopus head.”
I opened my inventory.
I did receive experience points, gold, and attack-boosting earrings after defeating the , but…
“Oh, there’s something good here.”
Anselot’s eyes sparkled, seemingly having found something.
“Princess, can I borrow your inventory?”
“Why, why?”
“I’ll get revenge. Since you don’t plan to, I’ll do it for you, the revenge.”
“That, Anselot. You’re not planning to… kill, are you?”
“I’m not some lunatic who kills just anyone.”
Anselot chuckled in response.
“But… wearing to increase attack power and strike Duke Hamelton…”
“I won’t do anything violent. Promise. Okay now?”
Anselot lightly tapped my little finger with his and curled up his lips in a sly smile.
“But how do I lend you the inventory?”
“Didn’t the messenger teach you how to materialize it?”
“Materialize?”
Tilting my head, I looked at the inventory window and noticed a small [Materialize] button on the top right.
Selecting it, the inventory, which was a blue list window, turned into a small pumpkin-colored gem and settled in my palm.
“It turned into a gem.”
I handed it to Anselot, marveling at the pumpkin-colored gem.
“Here you go.”
“I’ll use it well and return it.”
Anselot narrowed his eyes and smiled with a mischievous glint.
His humming and wicked expression suggested he wasn’t planning to use it for anything good.
‘But well, he said he’s not a lunatic who kills anyone…’
It wasn’t worth worrying about, not that I was particularly upset.
I had no intention of taking revenge myself, but there was also no reason to stop Anselot from doing it on my behalf.
As my thoughts reached this point, watching Anselot plotting something undoubtedly evil, I decided.
‘Just turn a blind eye.’
When in doubt, turning a blind eye is the best strategy.

One-line summary: Forced to live stream romance with a top celebrity in a female-dominant world.
Yan Jin transmigrated into a brothel, with a fellow transmigrated junior beside her.
Hearing the obscene words coming from outside, the unfortunate junior covered his ears tightly, his cheeks flushed red, and whispered to comfort her, “Don’t worry, I will definitely help you escape.”
“Don’t worry, I will definitely defend your chastity.” Yan Jin looked at the flawless and delicate features of the unfortunate junior and gently comforted, “Because we have transmigrated into a female-dominant world.”

Top celebrity Yu Shu suddenly fell into a coma during a concert.
Research scientist Yan Jin fainted in the lab after working overtime.
Two people with no connection were rushed to the same hospital.
Three days later, neither of them had woken up.
Suddenly, the entire nation discovered that a live streaming app had been forcibly installed on their phones.
Upon opening it, they heard the two discussing how to escape from the brothel.
The entire internet was in an uproar.
After the two successfully escaped from the brothel, Yu Shu’s fan group rushed to make a banner and sent it to the hospital overnight.
“Big sister bravely took action to defend the chastity of our idol!”

When Yu Shu was diagnosed with pregnancy, Yan Jin stared at his belly for a long time.
Covering his stomach, he muttered gloomily, “If you don’t like it, I’ll go get an abortion.”
“It’s not that I don’t like it.” Yan Jin hugged Yu Shu and said softly, “I just feel like I’m not human.”
Yu Shu comforted Yan Jin, “I was already an adult when we got together.”
Yan Jin hesitated, “But you won’t be of legal marriageable age even after giving birth to the child.”
At the same time, a flood of bullet comments appeared in the live streaming room that the two couldn’t see.
[Although it’s inappropriate, I also want a young and handsome boyfriend to have my child.]
①Male pregnancy (highlighted)
