Synopsis
I was reincarnated into the world of the growth-type fantasy novel The Chronicles of Esteia, where the protagonist struggles and grows through countless hardships.
However, my role is that of an orphan girl from a remote rural village who doesn’t even appear in the original story.
Not even an extra.
While lamenting my insignificant life, a boy I never thought I’d have any connection with appears in our village—the protagonist himself, Ian, during his childhood.
True to the future munchkin he’s destined to become, he has a breathtaking appearance. But my amazement is short-lived.
“You must be happy to have a friend your age, Ian.”
“……I don’t need friends.”
…Wow. This kid is seriously ill-mannered.
But because of me, the novel’s timeline becomes twisted,
and as a result, Ian faces a trial much earlier than he was meant to.
Plagued by guilt, I resolve to protect him so that he can reach a perfect happy ending.
“You said we’d always be together. You said you’d help me become an adult.”
“Y-You know that’s not what I meant!”
“……Doesn’t matter. Take responsibility for what you said.”
At some point, the protagonist starts becoming obsessed with me?!
