Huh? What was that voice I just heard… When I grabbed Princess Claude by the shoulders and pulled her to me, she reacted like a maiden at first… No, no way… that can’t be happening.

In the first place, Princess Claude was transformed into a woman by a spirit contract, not with a memory modification.

Therefore, Princess Claude has memories of living as a man…

After that much consideration, I feel like I’m missing something very important.

What on earth could it be?

She has neither lived as a woman nor had her memories been tampered with.

Then one thing stuck out to me.

Feminization.

Indeed, the punishment enforced on His Highness Prince Claude by the spirit contract was feminization.

There’s no doubt about it, and more importantly, I’m the one who set up that kind of punishment.

If so, what is feminization?

I can feel myself getting bloodthirsty all at once after thinking this far.

I’m sure if someone saw the look on my face right now, they would probably be so pale that they would be worried.

“Umm, Kaisar? Are you sure you’re okay? You’ve been acting strange since a while ago, and you look so pale and… Hey, if you don’t mind, can I take care of you?”

“No, I’m fine. I’m alright. Okay, so I’d appreciate it if you’d just leave me alone.”

“I see. I’ll do it if that’s what you want, but if you really are in trouble, you can count on me. I-I’m not saying that I care about you or that I’m worried about you! I’m only saying that for the sake of your slaves!”

Haa? Who the h**l is this tsundere?

However, looking at Princess Claude’s reaction, I can’t help but think that my hypothesis is correct.

What is feminization to begin with?

If only the body is female and the mind is male, is it really called feminization?

No, in my previous life in Japan, that would be categorized as gender bender, not female.

Can this really be called feminization? I don’t think so because that would be a man in a woman’s body.

The answer I derived from this is that Princess Claude has become a woman, not only in body but also in mind. A bonafide woman. 

If that is the case, then my initial plan that ‘since Her Highness Princess Claude is a man at heart and would try to break off the engagement with me’ would be out of the question.

It looks like I may have made a mistake I can never take back…
