A Queen Disgraced: Chapter 1 - The New Queen’s Ordeal



 “Long live Malicia, Queen of Orsini!”

In the pink granite royal capital of Eleonora, Prime Minister Bonnet, Court Magician Ralmesel, Hereditary Retainers Raymon, Cayfen, Chandler, Demulgast, Meldis, and Claus, and other members of the royal court filled the entire plaza while a tall and slender woman with a noble aura stepped onto the stage.


Her features were refined to the point of looking stony and long, glossy amber hair swept behind her. Her eyes had a graceful angled shape, long eyelashes, and an amber color. Her skin was white to the point of looking transparent and it was as fine as porcelain. She looked skinny at first glance, but she did have curves where it counted.

She perfectly wore a bright blue dress with lace borders that boldly showed off the white rose skin of her cleavage and she wore a translucent cape over her shoulders. She did not give off a seductive sort of sexiness, but her beauty was enough to enrapture any who laid eyes on her.

She looked older than her 18 years, but her position forced her to provide that impression.

She was the Orsini Kingdom’s new ruler.

Here we have the last untranslated entry in the "Proto Harem Series", the books written before the Harem Series but set in the same world as it.
This one tells the story of how one of the major players in the setting came to be. By pure coincidence, the most recent novel in the Harem Series is something of an epilogue to this story. The first chapter is a summary of this book's events, but it retcons some things to better fit the lighter tone of the Harem Series by making certain events a little more consensual. For example, the retconned version has Selune initially scare Malicia off by having sex with his maids in front of her instead of what you'll see here.

Adolescent Adam 9: Chapter 1 - A Changed World


The transportation Miss A had supplied for them was a lot like a missile without a warhead.

They flew at such high speed that it took less than half an hour to return to FeTUS headquarters at Megutono Academy from as deep in Kansai as south Fukui prefecture.

However, there must not have been time for proper maintenance. The speed dropped and Ange, Machina, and Lucia were dropped to the ground before arriving back at the headquarters.

“Ow. That was a hell of a way of sending us back.”

“It was a very Miss A thing to do. But more importantly…”

“Where are we? Oh, is that the mall over there?”
They had apparently made it back to the city. They had fallen near SeeD WalK, the shopping mall that the angels like Ange often used.

It had been closed for a while after the destruction from Black Cat’s attack, but it had reopened before summer break. It was once more a place for countless families to make nice memories.

“…?”
Or it should have been.

Adolescent Adam 9: Prologue - A Visit from Perfect Bliss



“Hey, mama? Where’s my yogurt?”

Kurikara Saya had recently learned the joy of eating yogurt after taking a hot bath.

Yogurt after a bath was said to help with your gut flora, it was good for your health, it kept you regular, and it made for a good diet.

She checked the fridge while only wearing a shirt and panties. That might seem a little indecent for a girl, but the Kurikara household was casual enough to allow for that.

“Isn’t it next to the chocolate sauce?”

“No!”

“Oh, right. I used it making the sauce for dinner today.”

“Ehh? Really? Then I’ll be taking your coffee jelly.”

“Go ahead.”

As long as it was sweet and cold, she did not particularly care. She took the coffee jelly, plopped it on a plate, and poured plenty of chocolate sauce on top.

Milk Princess 3: Chapter 3 - The Princess’s Milking: Stella’s Case


One day after breakfast, the boy returned to his room to study with Sherris.

He had lost his parents at a young age and worked as a jailer, so he had not received much of an education. Thanks to that, he was fascinated with everything the maid taught him, from the basics of reading and writing to the small trivia she would teach him. He was listening with rapt attention again today.

As lunchtime approached, he took a break while drinking the tea the maid had prepared.

That was when he remembered something and pulled out a book.

“Thank you very much for this book, Sherris. I enjoyed it.”

“Oh, you finished it already? I am glad you liked it.”

She had recommended him some novels and poetry collections that he would borrow from the library along with the books he used to study. He was enjoying them enough that he had started reading them whenever he had some spare time.

He sometimes ran across some difficult parts that he could not understand, but she would always kindly explain when he asked. And if he could not read a book at all, he could ask Christina to read it to him before bed, so he could read to his heart’s content.

Harem Engagement: Chapter 6 - Choosing the Bride


“Welcome back.”

The troops successfully drove out the bandits and then returned to Lennus Castle where Fasilia was waiting for them with a full-face smile.

They had not had a proper victory celebration last time since they had only just rescued the besieged castle, but a celebration was waiting for them this time, small though it may have been.

The girls who worked at the castle served the solders drinks and as much food as they could eat.

Fasilia in her mourning clothes, Evun in her dark blue military clothes and white and gold armor, Orphen in her green clothes and pointed hat, Arlee in her sky blue clothes and scarlet scabbard, and Bargisel, their possible groom, all ate together in the family dining hall.

Evun enjoyed a vintage red wine while eating with the impeccable manners of a noble.

Orphen filled her plate with all the tastiest-looking parts of the tasty-looking dishes.

Arlee sated her great hunger by filling her stomach with more food than you would think could fit in such a small and skinny body.
