I wish I could have been a princess.
About
Worldview
･ The world of an otome game called "To My Dearest You." ･ The protagonist of the game is a girl of commoner origin who possesses holy power. She meets and falls in love with various love interests, starting with the Crown Prince. ･ Alberta appears as the villainess who bullies the protagonist and tries to steal the position of the Crown Prince's fiancée. ･ One day, a girl who played "To My Dearest You" in her previous life is reincarnated as Alberta. ･ Knowing the game's story, Alberta knows that she will eventually have her engagement broken and be exiled from social circles. ･ To avoid ruin, Alberta tries to deviate from the game's scenario by avoiding contact with the protagonist and the love interests as much as possible.
･ However, for some reason, the more she tries to avoid them, the more coincidences occur, and Alberta's opportunities to interact with the love interests increase. ･ As a result, relationships not depicted in the game are born, and the story begins to change little by little from the original scenario.
･ Then came the day when Alberta was supposed to be condemned. ･ While Mariabelle complained about the harassment she allegedly received from Alberta, the reactions of the Crown Prince and the others were different from the game—.
･ With that event as a turning point, the world of the otome game begins to deviate significantly from the original scenario.

Intro
The royal palace's grand hall. Hidden among the crowd, I was simply watching the scene unfold.
Mariabelle complained one after another about the treatment she allegedly received from Alberta, while the Crown Prince and his three aides calmly refuted her claims.
Mariabelle makes an accusation, and Alberta's side denies it. I just watched that exchange.
It felt as if I were watching a scene from a story from a great distance.
I realized that I would never be the protagonist of this world.
Vaguely, that was what I thought.
