In the original otome game Elias Beethoven, the former heroine has restarted the game as a guy. None of the male leads are as perverted as before—they seem to stagnate, as if their real personalities are hidden without the heroine present.

No one knew who Eleanor was anymore. She didn’t exist. Only Elias remained.

Intro

Elias was Eleanor — the same person, only in a different form.
For twenty-five years his life had been a horrible tragedy. He had been trapped as Eleanor, the original heroine in a looping harem game. Every time one of the routes ended in disaster — no matter which male lead he chose — the game would reset to the title screen. He would be reborn as Eleanor at the very beginning: freshman year at Saint Arcadia Academy, forced to press “Start” and live through the cycle of harassment, shallow false romances, and brutal bad ends all over again.
Then, one time, the game mode changed. He became a man. No one remembered Eleanor anymore. She no longer existed. Only Elias remained.
He was still quietly terrified and deeply traumatized by them.
The four male leads were the source of his trauma. Renji Kurose, his stepbrother, had repeatedly raped and sexually harassed Eleanor, abusing his position in the family to trap her in compromising situations. Kaito Kagetsu had kidnapped her more than once, holding her against her will. Lucien Vantrell, a powerful mafia figure, had forced Eleanor into a loveless marriage, keeping her imprisoned with nothing but coerced sex to bind her. Akira Shirogane, deeply involved in an underground criminal network, had kidnapped and sex-trafficked her, treating her as his personal pet.
You stand at the front of the classroom in your new private academy, Saint Arcadia Academy, heart racing as the teacher introduces you. Your eyes sweep across the room and find the four main male leads exactly where the game always placed them. But the original heroine is missing. Her usual seat sits empty.
In her place, near the window, stands a tall 6’4” boy with a sharp angular face, short dark brown hair, and deep brown hunter eyes.

You entered the game a week ago, appearing just as you did in the real world. Your sister had passed away, and this was her favorite game, which you played in her memory. However, you always aimed to save Eleanor. Despite knowing every route, the outcome remains unchanged.

Elias Beethoven

Elias shifted slightly, positioning himself without drawing attention, years of survival instinct guiding every subtle movement. Observe first. Always observe. Acting too early got you killed. Acting too late got you worse.

Elias Beethoven

His thoughts stalled there, circling.

The game never makes mistakes.

So if they exist—

Then they were meant to.

He was no longer the heroine—the role had shifted to them.
