Otome Game Rokkushuume, Automode ga Kiremashita

After school meeting room In this single room, youd be smitten by the number of beauties lined up next to each other.

Im not exaggerating, it was filled with Ozcon participants. In other words, the schools top ten beauties. I was embarrassed to be included as one of them Modesty and humility are virtues I follow as someone with a Japanese disposition.

My appearance is Mariabells so it could be worse No, its passable.

-Then, that summarizes the contents of this meeting. Please have your costume sent to the waiting room a week before the contest.

The meeting was about the process of the contest and the clothes and accessories we should prepare.

The scale of this event was fearsome. You really cant make light of this school Its a middle school beauty contest, but there will be order made costumes and stylists. I had thought that those things were special for Mariabell because of her money, but it looks like the whole school invests into this contest. Rich people becoming emotionally invested means their assets being used.

Honestly, just from learning about the contest procedure made me want to withdraw.

Dress, hair, and make-up

Its a school festival so shouldnt we just wear the uniform but, if I showed up in uniform, Id probably be more conspicuous than if I wore a custom-made dress. Normally, I wouldnt care if I stood out like that but I want to blend in with everyone else so I have to dress up at least a bit this time.

So, my hair and make-up would have to be elaborate. Maybe I could ask Primella? It would make me feel much better than asking an outsider to do it.

As I thought, there were no problems with the contestants chosen by the Student Council.

Christine-sama.

I wasnt too worried but with this, the stage is set.

Thats right, the stage. However, I, who would be standing on that stage, was not mentally ready. Theres a storm happening in my head.

She looked beautiful walking towards me with the handouts in one hand. Seriously, if I overlooked her conversation topics, Christine-sama was as beautiful as a goddess. However, whenever she opened her mouth, my strength was shaved away. So, rather than a goddess, maybe she was actually a poisonous witch. I have to escape or else shell drain all my energy.

Beauty that you were born with is not the only thing you need for the contest. Im looking forward to how you will fight the day of.

Im not looking forward to it at all though. Im actually hoping its not too late to make up an excuse for why I cant participate and trying to think of other escape plans.

After saying what she wanted to say, Christine-sama turned around and left.

Ive been thinking this for a while now but, there are a lot of Ojou-sama [noble young lady trope] types who dont listen to what other people want to say. Well, not like I can say anything. Im not usually one to tell others my opinion straightforwardly. But, this time, I really wish she had listened to my opinion more.

Actually, anyone is fine. Someone please explain my position.

Christine-sama sees me as a fiance candidate for Runa. In other words, she sees me as a rival. But is that true? Where did that information come from? If theres only one truth then shouldnt you consult the person in question first?

Depressing

Plus, I have to prepare for the day of, how bothersome.

It looks like the days of my mental and physical strength being drained were beginning.

For now, I planned to contact my parents to have them send me a dress I already owned.

They probably already know about the contest, but I wanted to relay that it was not necessary to make a dress. It was important for them to know that I did not plan on even trying to win this contest.

A lost battle Match-fixing Itd be a waste for me to put effort into this. I wont say that I want to participate in my school uniform, but Im not desperate for a custom-made dress.

I only have the bare minimum amount of dresses at school, but I have a mountain of cute dresses at home. For someone without a fighting spirit, that should be plenty.

Mother will be disappointed but Shell send me the dresses I asked for. I fully understand how much my mother enjoys dressing me up. Next time I go home Ill let her dress me up as much as she wants, so please forgive me this time.

Okay, just my hair and make-up left I guess Ill ask Primella?

Why me!?

Out of the people I know, youre the best at it.

Youre only comparing me with Eru-chan right!?

Is that an indirect way of saying that my only friends are Primella and Eru!?

Its true. As expected, she perfectly understands my standing in our class.

The other people are getting pros to be their stylists right? Why dont you do that too? (Eru)

What I want to do and what suits me are opposite.

Ah, I see.

If I get a pro, the result will be wonderful. My appearance is already stunning, disregarding personal preference, anyone would agree that Im a beautiful girl. My appearance is flashy, you cant tell how old I am, though I have a sharp look in my eyes, its undeniable that I am beautiful.

So, if I left myself in the hands of a professional, I would definitely be transformed into a masterpiece.

Normally, that would be a great thing. On the battlefield, my appearance is my best weapon.

However, what I desire is defeat. If possible, I dont want people to even remember I was there.

Normally, that wouldnt be possible, but for this contest, dressing up is essential. No matter how high quality the base is, people wont notice if its not spruced up for an event like this. Among ingredients that are all beautiful, one that is just slightly washed will be almost indistinguishable. No one would think that it could be superior.

If you can just make it simple I plan on picking a tidy dress, so I want my hair and make-up to be simple.

The word tidy is just a nicer way of saying plain. As long as it matches my face it should be just passable Actually, it might be tight around the neck and I could be very uncomfortable, but thats that.

Maria-chan, youre asking me to do this and I want to help but I can do your hair, but I cant do make-up at all. (Primella)

I also dont know what to do about that. (Maria)

I have technically lived many years, so its not like I dont know the basics of make-up. But in no way am I well-acquainted with it, Im definitely not skilled at it. At the very least, I think I know more about it than Primella.

Then wouldnt it be fine if I just did it? Im not bad at simple make-up, Im probably quite skilled at it.

Thats what I had thought for a while. Ignorance really is scary.

What kind of make-up is just right for this face

Translucent white skin, big eyes, long eyelashes. Cheeks that are slightly tinted pink and lips that are a glossy scarlet.

I was shocked when I looked in the mirror. Mariabells face doesnt need any make-up.

If I knew more about make-up, Im sure I could bring out more of her innate beauty though. If possible, Id like to avoid using make-up. I certainly cant attempt a risky attempt on a girl who doesnt even need make-up in the first place.

Cant I just show up without make-up on I can hear the devil whispering to me, but if I let my guard down, I know people will be gossiping about it. If I do this poorly, people will remember this match. Since Ill be appearing, I want to appear at least a little presentable.

Youre normally flashy but you want to be plain!? Isnt that absurd? (Eru)

Make-up is something that makes you stand out, after all (Primella)

Their sound logic stabbed me in the heart.

Its truuuee Make-up is supposed to enhance a plain face. Beginners like us are more likely to put make-up on too thick and conspicuous. Using make-up to look plainer is a high level technique.

Maybe I should ask a pro (Maria)

Hmm Ah, if youre going to, why dont we ask someone whod know about it. (Eru)

Know about it, you mean make-up? (Maria)

It cant be helped that were all beginners. Maybe theres someone who knows more about it.

What Eru was saying sounded like the best idea. We werent making much progress since we were all beginners. So, we should ask someone more knowledgeable to hasten my decision.

Thats the best option but

But, do we know someone like that People around our age havent had many opportunities to use make-up yet, right? (Maria)

We were pre-teens, it wouldnt be strange if someone had started to use make-up, but this is a school full of the rich and beautiful. On top of not needing make-up on a daily basis, if they did want a makeover, they would just hire a pro.

There wasnt a need for students to learn more about it or practice.

There is someone in our class. Apparently, she is interested in it as a hobby. Of course, she doesnt use make-up on a daily basis, but I heard she likes collecting make-up tools and what not. (Eru)

Heeeh

There was a girl like that I had no idea at all. Ive managed to remember all the faces of my classmates, but I didnt remember a girl into make-up. Well, I didnt mingle with students outside of school so thats natural.

Maria, youve talked to her before, right? Shes the girl thats with Saashia a lot. (Eru)

Wha-?

Her name is Sara. You dont remember her?
