Legrange - Prince of Recordo - Main Story

Chapter 1 - A Passionate Welcome

Kingdom of Memories, Recordo, December... 

This kingdom that had mysterious buildings alongside the streets gave off a slightly different air than all the other kingdoms. Recordo, the management of all the memories in the world... After I received an invitation from the prince that administers the genealogies in the world, Legrange-kun, I came to visit here, Recordo... 

When I arrived at the castle, someone was running as his blonde hair was swaying. 

Legrange: MC-chan! Thanks for coming!

After stopping right in front of me, Legrange-kun held my hand. His thin long eyelashes that bordered over his bright eyes went up and down excitedly. 

MC: It's been a while. 

When he showed his friendly cheerful smile without hesitation, I broke into a smile. 

Legrange: I'm so happy that we got to meet again. I couldn't wait any longer, so I rushed out of my room. 

As the passionate welcome made quite an impression on me, I returned a smile to him. 

(Since he's this happy, I'm glad that I came here.) 

Silently approaching us was... 

Butler: Legrange-sama, my apologies while you're meeting with your guest. You have some cases that need to be checked... Won't you come over to the genealogy slate at once? 

Legrange: Got it, I'll be there soon. 

After responding to the butler, he looked at me apologetically. 

Legrange: Sorry. Even though I invited you and all, I don't have time today. If you'd like, would you like me to take you to town tomorrow? 

MC: Sure!

When I responded energetically, Legrange-kun returned a relieved smile... 

Chapter 2 - His Duty

The next day... 

When Legrange-kun took me out just as he promised yesterday, the two of us went to the town of Recordo. 

Legrange: Then, let me take you to this shop that has some good apple pie next. 

MC: Okay. 

Legrange: I can guarantee the taste. Huh? 

Just as he was talking, a man and woman that were about the same age called out Legrange-kun's name and approached us with smiles. 

Man: Hey, Legrange. You doing good? 

Legrange: When am I not!

(They're not being formal? Are they close friends of his?) 

When I looked at them while thinking how strange it was, Legrange-kun noticed and spoke to me. 

Legrange: I don't like all that formality stuff. So, my friends just call me, Legrange. 

Women: Legrange, let's go hang out with everyone again. 

The woman next to him said that soon after. 

Legrange: Sure. Let's make some plans later!

Woman: Can't wait!

While going through the crowd, another person greeted him. 

(His face seems to be very well known... He has friends all over downtown.)

As we were moving to one of the sections, someone was always calling out to Legrange-kun. Then, another person... 

Man: Hey! Legrange, did you hear? Todora-san has given birth safely!

After hearing the news just now, Legrange-kun's face blushed. 

Legrange: Seriously!? Thank goodness...!

Overcome with emotions, Legrange-kun's clear eyes shined as they became teary so quickly. Feeling charmed somehow, I broke into a smile. 

Man: Hey~? Are you crying again~?

When his other friends gathered around, they teased Legrange-kun as he became teary eyed. 

Legrange: ...! I'm not crying!

When he wiped his tears away with the back of his hand, he showed a white toothy smile. 

(Legrange-kun... Even his tears are fragile.) 

Man: You tell yourself that. See ya!

After his friends left while waving their hands, Legrange-kun turned towards me with an embarrassed look. 

Legrange: Ah, sorry for surprising you.

- It's something to be happy about after all (☼)

MC: It's something to happy about after all. 

Legrange: I guess so. Happy things fill my eyes up with joy after all. 

- It's something to celebrate after all (☽)

MC: It's something to celebrate after all. 

Legrange: I guess so. I think it'd be nice for everyone to have that kind of deep impression too though... 

///Choices///

(His bashful face is cute... He's such a good person.) 

Legrange: Also... Childbirth is very special to me. 

MC: ...? 

Legrange: I manage the memories of all the genealogies in the world that's on the slate after all. I know that future memories about people's lives are written on it, but... Just hearing reports about those facts make me so happy... That I just. 

To hide his embarrassed smile, Legrange-kun turned the other way. 

(Slate... Is he talking about where he works?) 

MC: I think it's amazing how you knew earlier. 

(Could it be that he knows about me too...?) 

When I thought of that, I looked at Legrange-kun...

Legrange: Ah, about you being the Traumerei Princess. Since there are no records about Traumerei at all... I don't know about it. 

With a meek expression, Legrange-kun turned towards me. 

MC: I-I see. 

Legrange: It's okay not to know everything though... 

(True... That does make me a little relieved.) 

Legrange: But, not knowing is exciting, which is nice. 

As he was looking at me with his passion filled eyes, I was getting excited too... 

Chapter 3 - What's Inside His Heart

The streetlights along the boulevard have lit up with a pale magical light... 

(That was a nice dinner.) 

After Legrange-kun showed me around town for the entire day, I remembered the time we've spent at the restaurant that he took me to. 

Legrange: Did you enjoy it? 

MC: Yes. Thank you. Listening to your stories makes me want to know more about this kingdom. I think your work is nice. Getting to rejoice about childbirth with the townspeople. It's like being happy twice as much... It must be an amazing job. 

Then... 

Legrange: If they're happy stories... Then, I guess so. 

At that moment, Legrange-kun showed a complicated look. 

(Is something wrong...?) 

Legrange: Ah, no. It's nothing. 

Although, when his usual smile instantly returned, I became unable to ask about anything else... 

......

Then, a few days later... By the time night was hanging over completely, there was a knock on the door to my room. 

(Who could it be at this hour?) 

When I nervously opened the door... 

Legrange: ...

Legrange-kun was standing there with his shoulders dropped down sadly as his eyes were as dark as the shade of night. 

MC: Legrange-kun...? Is something wrong? 

(He looks really sad somehow.) 

Legrange: ...Y-Yeah... Just a little... 

Even though he usually talks about his never-ending stories, his mouth was heavily closed as his dark eyes were shaded tonight. 

(I wonder what's wrong.)

Towards Legrange-kun's depressed face, I...

- Anyway, how about you sit down? (☽)

MC: Anyway, how about you sit down? 

When I urged Legrange-kun to do that, he obediently sat down in a chair. 

Legrange: ...Thanks.

- Would you like something to drink? (☼)

MC: Would you like something to drink? 

After I asked that, Legrange-kun nodded honestly and sat down in a chair. 

Legrange: Sorry... Thanks. 

After he thanked me softly, I placed some hot milk on the table, but he wouldn't touch it. 

///Choices///

When I sat down in a chair next to him, I looked at Legrange-kun's tired looking face. 

MC: Um, did something happen? 

When I asked him that reservedly, Legrange-kun looked up in surprise. He turned towards me with a prepared look in his eyes. 

Legrange: ...When I got up early this morning today, the slate was filled. 

MC: The slate... 

Legrange: Since it was about the future... It showed who was going to die in the future too... Even the causes were mentioned on the slate. 

MC: Dead people too...!? 

I became speechless from the unexpected topic. 

Legrange: That's right, it's genealogy after all. It's not always filled with just happy stories. It gives me a reason to save them by preventing that from happening, but... Even if there's a possibility to change the future... You mustn't, no matter what. 

As he bit his bottom lip, my cheat tightened in pain. 

MC: Legrange-kun... 

Legrange: I know that it's my job, but... The moment it gets engraved on the slate, it becomes really hard. 

The unimaginable conversation made me unable to lend an ear to him. 

(What if... it was someone he knows.) 

After I thought of that, he ended his words. 

Legrange: ...Sorry. I spoke a little too much... That's not like me. Forget about what I said just now. 

As Legrange-kun had a sad look in his eyes, he smiled in pain.

- Hold his hand (☽)

When I softly placed my hand on Legrange-kun's fist, he loosened his firm grip and entwined his fingers with mine. 

Legrange: MC-chan, you're so kind. It's strange. Somehow, I feel a little reassured. 

- Stroke his back (☼)

MC: ...

I slowly stroked his back to reassure him. 

Legrange: ...

Legrange-kun placed his head on my shoulder at that moment. My heart throbbed loudly from that sudden heavy feeling. 

Legrange: Thank you. Also, something like this... puts me at ease a little.

///Choices///

MC: If talking to me gives you some comfort... I want you to talk to me anytime. 

Legrange: Thank you. I'm feeling better now. I've never seen your genealogy as the Traumerei Princess. But, about that. Despite that, it's somehow... really relieving. I'm glad that you're here. 

When I saw a gentle look in his eyes that were dim earlier, it took hold of my gaze and heart that it made me unable to move from that spot...

Chapter 4 - A Puzzling Proposal

A few days later since I listened to Legrange-kun talk about knowing about people's misfortunes that were on the slate... 

When Legrange-kun invited me out, he took me to town again. 

Legrange: The library we saw earlier was fun. 

MC: Yes. Even though it looks like an old stone building, I'm surprised that it has the latest system inside. 

Legrange: Pretty much. That's what makes this kingdom special. 

MC: I thought that it was a mysterious kingdom. It's so pleasant how it's a mix of both old and new... 

While being by his side, we arrived at a really comforting spot before I knew it... 

MC: Ah... 

When I realized that I was the only one talking and got carried away, I quickly looked at Legrange-kun and became startled from hos he was looking at me gently. 

MC: ...

Legrange: How nice. I want to hear more of your thoughts. Hearing you talk gives me energy... 

As Legrange-kun closed his eyes a little, his chrysoberyl-colored eyes clouded up. 

Legrange: That's right, come to think of it. If I had told you that I want to stop being a prince, what would you do? 

(Give up on being a prince... Does he mean that he wants to give up on administering genealogies!?) 

The sudden serious topic made me blink and I thought about it seriously. 

///Choices///

- I'll stand by with you (☽)

MC: I'll stand by with you. 

Legrange: That's... That makes me pretty happy... I don't want to be seen as weak, but... I feel like I'm being spoiled when I'm with you. 

- Hear him out (☼)

MC: First off... Let me hear you out. 

Legrange: ...Okay... I guess that'll help... I don't want to be seen as weak, but... I feel like I'm being spoiled when I'm with you.

///Choices///

After saying that, Legrange-kun placed his hand on my head. 

Legrange: Sorry. For asking such a strange question. Forget about it. ...It's troubling, but I love my job. It's what my household has been doing for a long time after all. I need to carry out my duties properly. 

MC: ... 

-Flashback-

Man: Hey! Legrange, did you hear? Todora-san has given birth safely!

Legrange: Seriously!? Thank goodness...!

Man: Hey~? Are you crying again~?

Legrange: ...! I'm not crying!

Legrange: Since it was about the future... It showed who was going to die in the future too... Even the causes were mentioned on the slate.

Legrange: I know that it's my job, but... The moment it gets engraved on the slate, it becomes really hard. 

-Flashback-

(He's such a kind person...) 

When I thought of all the responsibilities that he holds, I felt pain in my heart. 

MC: Um... If there's something I can do to help...!

When I said that, Legrange-kun looked at me with a cheerful positive smile. 

Legrange: You've already done enough. Talking to you makes me want to do my best in work tomorrow. It's like all kinds of feelings have been reset... Anyway, thanks. 

MC: I-It was nothing... 

When he praised me so openly, my cheeks became hot. As his hand caressed my hair gently, it gave me a warm feeling... 

......

One day... 

Legrange was at the genealogy slate today as well and was working passionately. Right now, a new connection in a man's genealogy suddenly appeared in front of Legrange. 

Legrange: Ah, a marriage line has appeared. 

Legrange made a satisfied smile from the added data about the marriage. 

Legrange: What good news~! Something like that happening makes me so happy... 

While knowing about the happy news, he looked over the man's personal history. Then...

Legrange: Today at noon, he'll be proposing to his fated partner that he's going to marry. How nice. That's wonderful. Let's see, the features of his fated woman are... Eh!? 

Legrange became speechless and immediately stopped moving. 

Legrange: These features... They're the same as MC-chan's, but... It can't be!? 

As Legrange's shoulders trembled, he ran off from the front of the slate like a fierce animal...
