I Just Wanted To Read Re: Zero, But Now I'M A Protagonist Of Eroge
Chapter 10: The Lonely Girl in the Forbidden Library
The first thing that caught my attention was the bright white light. In addition to the light, there was a wide ceiling in front of me with sparkling glass inside, flickering from the light falling on it, which illuminated the room.
Realizing that the place where he is currently is the guest room of the clown who has the body of his descendant, Roswaal.
- ...It was disappointing . -
that's all I can mutter, trying to make a plan to avoid Roswaal without telling him about the things in the Echidna diary.
A few seconds later I was completely awake.
Running my hand over my stomach, a small memory appeared in my mind.
The pain of the open abdominal wound and the unbearable feeling of blood flowing from me made my head ache.
“Ugh... I don't know how Subaru handled this situation... without going crazy.”.
It was already over the line for a normal person like me.
Feeling the pain gone, I got out of bed and went to visit Beatrice...
Don't be shy, little Beako is in my top 3 waifu against Ravel Phoenix and Claire Harvey.
I don't know why, but I always have something because tsundere with tirabuse.
As I stepped on the ground, my feet trembled like jelly before I could take the first step.
As I left the room, the walls and floor of the corridor, all warm in color, stretched out in front of me. The corridor continues on the right and on the left.
"It's the first time I've seen this big house in person" I said, amazed at how incredible it was.
I took a few steps towards the door in front of the room where I woke up, knocking on the handle in an attempt to calm down, turning the handle, opening the door ...
I'm wondering why do you look like a very upset person?
Yes, my gaze was filled with bookshelves and books, while a loli with beige blonde hair sat in the middle, looking at me with completely insulting eyes.
Grey space, time stopped, and I had three options.
[Option: Sorry, I don't think I'll find a cocky girl here]
[Option B: Beautiful Loli, Call me Oni-chan]
[Option C: Sorry, pretty lady. Yes, I am amazed by the number of books out there]
Hmm, as much as I want to choose option B, I prefer to go safely.
The world is back on track.
“Sorry, beautiful lady,” I looked at the books for a while before looking into her beautiful eyes and giving her a sincere smile, “I was really surprised by the number of books there—”
[Congratulations, you've unlocked the route with heroine Beatrice]
[Congratulations, you have received +2 attachment points to heroine Beatrice]
"Be sincere... I think I can forgive you for admiring Betty's library" Beatrice said proudly in her voice as she looked at her books lovingly.
He only glanced at her for a moment before smiling happily.
“Actually, I also love books, especially myths and legends,” I said as Beatrice grew interested in the conversation.
"I know a lot of stories about gods and heroes, do you want me to tell you some?"
Beatrice seemed to consider the idea before smiling lightly as she closed her book and set her eyes on me, telling me to continue.
“Hmmm, I think some short stories would be a good way to start, do you mind, Miss?” He spoke in the most polite tone he could, calling out to her, inviting the woman to dance.
To Beatrice, she was amused by my appearance, then she said the following words.
- I think I can find time for your story.-
Seeing Beatrice's interest increase, I made a mental victory pose.
well, I'll start with a little story that tells of the birth of Hestia, the Greek goddess of architecture, cuisine, and home
you know, the goddess Hestia was the first daughter of the Titan in the time of Kronos, who, according to the prophecy of Uranus, was the original titan, who personified the heavens. She ate. -.
As time went on, Beatrice casually listened to her story, even asking some questions about her.
After about 20 minutes of the story, Beatrice looked at me with sparkling eyes.
I could only sigh when I saw the system log.
[Congratulations, you have received +3 attachment points to heroine Beatrice]
[Congratulations, you have received +2 attachment points to heroine Beatrice]
[Congratulations, you have received +5 points of affection for heroine Beatrice]
[Congratulations, you have received +9 points of affection for heroine Beatrice]
"After hearing this story, inevitably I felt respect for this goddess," said Beatrice, directing her shining eyes to my eyes.
"Do you want to hear a story about a hero now, Miss?"
Beatrice looked at me even brighter than before, only to utter her next words.
- Before you continue, tell me your name.
“The name of this sage is Subaru Natsuki, since you asked me my name, can I have the honor to know your name as well?” I said, looking at him with all my heart.
Beatrice blushed a little.
[Congratulations, you have received +15 points of affection for heroine Beatrice]
“M-My name is Beatrice, you will be happy to remember it, Young Master.”
The smile on Beatrice's face gave me enough energy to tell a thousand more stories.

Pov (Beatrice ))
At first I thought an upset person who suddenly entered the library would ruin my mood.
Well, the man was standing there looking at me, he had a rather silly expression on his face.
"Sorry, beautiful lady," the man looked me in the eye very transparently, saying that the compliment he gave me was quite sincere.
“To be honest, I was surprised by the number of books that are out there.” The answer, although it seemed like an excuse, his genuine smile did not make me think that it was a lie.
"Very sincere... I think I can forgive you for admiring Betty's library" I said, not feeling those words.
- True, I also love books, especially myths and legends, - said the man with a joyful smile on his face.
The next words he spoke immediately aroused my interest.
"I know a lot of stories about gods and heroes, do you want me to tell you some?"
Realizing that I was showing nothing in an instant, I seemed to understand what I wanted.
- Hmmm, I think some short stories would be a good way to start, do you mind, Miss? - A man with perfect etiquette, I think, seeing his body without scars and his hands without calluses, made me think he was some kind of academic because it didn't look like a fighter at all.
“I think I can find time for your story.” When I said those words, I looked straight into her brown eyes and I saw she wanted to tell me some stories she knew. Strange, though at first he seemed annoyed, after I spoke to him and saw his sincerity, I thought it was bearable.
The next moment she started telling me a story about a goddess named Hestia, at first I had some doubts, which she answered kindly.
The goddess of architecture, cuisine, and home, she was a goddess who swore before all the gods that she would marry no one. The oath I don't know because I remember the contract I made with my mother
The young man made the story interesting and funny, after he finished telling it, it seemed like he still wanted to tell more stories.
"Do you want to hear the story of a hero now, Miss?"
Saying these simple words, my heart turned around, this is the first time I have seen someone so honest with me.
Even that stupid Roswaal was just a bag full of lies.
"Before you continue, tell me your name."
It's just a question.
The young man smiled with that stupid sincere smile before replying.
"The name of this wise man is Subaru Natsuki, since you asked me my name, may I have the honor of knowing your name?"
Looking at her eyes looking at me, I could see a gaze that was focused only on me and not on books or anything, this gaze was something I had never experienced, a blank mother gaze, she said, roswaala's gaze was full of lies.
But that simple look made me feel special for the first time.
I don't know at what moment my face flushed, I don't know at what moment a great shame filled me.
“M-My name is Beatrice, you will be happy to remember it, Young Master.”
I may have found my Al, Mom.
And this was the first meeting between a sage in black and a spiritual princess.
