I Favor The Villainess Chapter 79

Yuu-sama is the only child between the Bauer’s King His Majesty Rousseau and Queen Lishe .
The other two princes are Yuu-sama’s half-brothers .
In the Bauer Kingdom the throne succession rights depend on the birth order, Yuu-sama is third in line to the throne .
Even so, when Queen Lishe was blessed with children, she wanted to eventually place her child at the top of the country .

“The children born on term were twins – a boy and girl”

Misha lowered her voice while saying so .
She soundproofed the room with a barrier made with wind magic that’s her forte and continued the secret talk in even quieter voice .
Lily-sama said that as well, but it really is one of the darkest secrets of the country .
It mustn’t be known to other people .

“But, as we know, the survival rate of infants is low, right? The boy died right away”

In this world where the level of medical care is at the level of Middle Ages the death rate of infants is surprisingly high .
Although there is healing magic, there are situations where it’s ineffective against illnesses and infections .
While Queen Lishe went back to the church from the royal palace to give birth, the boy died .
Queen Lishe’s despair when she lost her long-awaited male child who could become the heir ran deep, and that led her astray .

“Lishe-sama had a wet nurse who suffered from the opposite s.e.x disease breastfeed the baby”

As a result, the girl contracted the opposite s.e.x disease, and the child who was supposed to become a princess became a prince .
That’s Yuu-sama .

“Is His Majesty Rousseau aware of it?”
“Of course . It seems Lishe-sama tried to conceal it, but there was no way to hide it from those who sat at the top of this country”

Even so, it seems His Majesty Rousseau learned of the truth of Yuu-sama’s s.e.x after Yuu-sama was announced as the Third Prince .
His Majesty had to treat Yuu-sama as a prince, and since then, the matter of Yuu-sama’s s.e.x was strictly concealed .

“But, when suffering from the opposite s.e.x disease, doesn’t the body return to its original s.e.x during the full moon? It’s quite something to try to conceal it until now, isn’t it?”
“It is the shame of the Royal Palace . Those who knew of the secret carefully selected people to cooperate with concealing Yuu-sama’s s.e.x”

I was also one of them, Misha spilled .

“My family were formerly reasonably high-ranking n.o.bles, so we had friendly relations.h.i.+p with royalty . That’s why, I was told to cover up for Yuu-sama”

Yuu-sama and Misha may not be simply childhood friends .
It was a kind of collusion .

“But, with my house falling to ruin, that relations.h.i.+p also disappeared . The house didn’t completely end and can continue as commoners, because the Royal Palace paid off our debts as hush money”

We lost the status of n.o.bles though, Misha said with her unchanging expression .

“The Church was secretly ordered by His Majesty to research the opposite s.e.x disease . Of course, it was to make Yuu-sama a real man, not a woman”

In short, it was consistent with Queen Lishe’s purpose .
But, I wonder if such a thing is possible .
Even if there’s magic in this world, the are various things that cannot actually be done .

“I don’t know . But, Yuu-sama deep down hates it”

To my question, Misha replied so .

“Yuu-sama’s body is usually a man’s, but originally Yuu-sama was born female . As Yuu-sama grew, Yuu-sama began suffering from the detachment between the s.e.x of the mind and body”

Misha’s face warped in anguish .
It’s rare for her expression to reveal her thoughts .

Yuu-sama probably has what’s called gender dysphoria .
It’s also known as gender ident.i.ty disorder in j.a.pan .
The s.e.x of the mind and the s.e.x of the body don’t match, which causes distress in social life .
Those who suffer from it experience pain caused by the gender dissonance in various aspects of daily life .

“Envying dresses that I’m wearing, wanting to grow out hair . Hiding from everyone and putting on makeup”

Misha talked in a bitter voice as she was recalling things .

‘Hey, Misha . Don’t I look strange?’
‘I believe you look lovely’

At the time of the costume fitting for the gender reversal café, I thought for sure Yuu-sama was having fun, but the nuance was completely different .
Yuu-sama didn’t chuckle over ending up looking good .
Satisfying the longing normally not fulfilled, Yuu-sama was really pleased from the bottom of the heart .
I thought Yuu-sama was a sly fox, but no surprise Yuu-sama turned into one .
Not while living such a double life .

“So, Rei can heal Yuu-sama’s disease?”
“If by healing you mean returning to the original s.e.x, I can”
“How?”
“Although the opposite s.e.x disease is considered a disease, as a matter of fact it’s a kind of magical curse . Therefore, it can be cured with a magical tool held by the Church that counters curses”
“… I won’t ask why you know such a thing”

I’m relieved Misha is a person who can read the air .
Above all, she might’ve meant to not hurt the feelings of the person who could solve the problem of her beloved .

“But, the Royal Palace and the Church are looking for the way to keep Yuu-sama a man, right?”
“Let’s see . At least the Royal Palace wants that”
“Huh? Is the Church different?”
“There is a culture of women being appointed to high positions in the Church”

Now that she mentions it, that’s how it is .
I touched on it before, but the Spirit Church perceives women as mystical, and there’s a tendency to regard them highly .
Unlike Catholicism on Earth, even women can be appointed to high ranking positions .
In fact, there are examples like the former cardinal Queen Lishe or Cardinal Lily .

“What would Misha prefer?”
“My inclination doesn’t matter”
“That’s no good . Misha loves Yuu-sama, right?”
“… . Who said that”

Misha implicitly denied, but I didn’t back down .

“n.o.body told me that, I know . We’re friends”
“Even though I’m supposed to be your friend, I don’t understand you at all”
“So, how about it?”
“…”

Perhaps it was transmitted that I wouldn’t relax my questioning, as Misha let out a little sigh .

“Because I ordinarily like men, I think it’d be good if Yuu-sama was a man”
“Mmhm mmhm”
“But, it’s more about Yuu-sama than me . If Yuu-sama can live a healthy life without suffering, I don’t care what s.e.x Yuu-sama is”
“Ooh… Yuu-sama is Yuu-sama, something like that?”
“I don’t like dramatic phrases, but well, that’s how it is”

Misha talked about herself disinterestedly .
She seems to think of herself as a heteros.e.xual, but in my opinion she also has bis.e.xual qualities .
The phrase “s.e.x doesn’t matter” said often in creative works isn’t actually realistic .
It’s applicable for many people while they enjoy reading, but whether they can put it into practice is a different story .
Of course, what kind of people they like varies per person, it’s not as clear as what I’ve said until now .

“Then, I’ll cooperate to turn Yuu-sama back into a woman”
“Aside from what I think, the Royal Palace won’t allow Yuu-sama to become a woman? Esspecially Lishe-sama”
“Why?”
“Lishe-sama’s strongest wish is to put her child on the throne . As she had her own new-born child contract a disease for that, that obsession should be far from ordinary”

I guess .
Even in the game, in Yuu-sama’s route, Queen Lishe held the position that her son (although it was her daughter) marrying a commoner was absurd .

I guess .
Even in the game, in Yuu-sama’s route, Queen Lishe held the position that her son (although it was her daughter) marrying a commoner was absurd .
In her opinion an adequate woman was necessary to become a king, she stubbornly didn’t accept the protagonist until the very end .
Ultimately, the revolution occurred, and in the turmoil Yuu-sama eloped with the protagonist .

“Then, Misha will have to elope”
“What are you saying?”
“Misha . Are you prepared to elope to be together with Yuu-sama?”
“No way”

I was disappointed by Misha’s immediate reply .

“N, no?”
“Think about it . Both Yuu-sama and I were brought up as royalty and aristocracy? We couldn’t live satisfactorily if we eloped”
“Isn’t Misha living as a commoner”
“I said it a while ago . We’re backed by the Royal Palace”
“Is that all?”

Misha is shrewd, I think she could live just fine as a commoner .

In the end, that was all for the talk on that day .
While lying in bed, I thought back to Misha’s story .

So Yuu-sama had such a dramatic setting .
It was a fact unknown even to me who’s a 「Revolution」 maniac .
The fact that Yuu-sama was originally female was neither on the fan disc nor in the setting materials .
Probably it wasn’t made public as the setting was judged to be unsuitable for an otome game .
Before, at the time of the academy proficiency test, I said I had more confidence in my knowledge of this world being higher than the staff’s, but surely I was mistaken .
No matter what game, there must be countless useless settings and concealed settings not disclosed to players .

That’s that, but I wonder if there’s a way to get Yuu-sama, with the s.e.x returned to the original, and Misha together .
And after careful consideration, the conclusion I’ve reached is―― .
