Toto - Prince of Oz - Main Story

Chapter 1 - Please Be My Owner!

Kingdom of Rainbows, Oz, August... 

When I joined my hands together and gave a prayer within the drifting sweet scent of flowers, the ring emitted a strong light... 

(So bright...!) 

After the light gradually settled down, what appeared from it was a young man with black hair. 

MC: You are...? 

Toto: I'm... Toto. 

(Toto-kun...) 

Toto-kun shook his head like a cute dog and looked at me. 

Toto: ...You... me... You saved me... What an amazing person... 

After murmuring that, Toto-kun's large and handsome body curled up a little... He stared at me with those really clear eyes. 

(I-Is something wrong? Could it be that he's hurt...?) 

Just as I became worried and was about to ask him, Toto-kun suddenly grabbed my hand with both of his. Then... 

Toto: Please be my owner!

MC: Eh!? 

Due to that crazy statement, I looked at Toto-kun in bewilderment. Although, on Toto-kun's serious face, he was looking at me pleadingly. 

(S-Somehow, I can't leave him alone... Also, he doesn't seem to be joking... Hmm, but calling me an owner might be really troubling...) 

Toto: I only want you! Please!

MC: U-Um, I'm sorry. Being called an owner is a little troubling...

Toto: Eh... No way... 

When I softly turned him down in embarrassment, tears appeared in Toto-kun's eyes. 

(Eh? He's crying...) 

Despite his large body, that reaction makes him more like a child or an animal. 

(...I can't leave him alone...) 

MC: U-Um... 

Even though I was embarrassed, I was hesitating... 

Toto: Being told that I'm troubling... 

The shock that Toto-kun has received made his face turn red for some reason.

Toto: ...Makes me a little happy... 

MC: Eh...??

Toto: N-No, it's nothing... Um. I want to be owned by you no matter what...!

Even though I turned him down, Toto-kun clung onto my arm in disappointment... 

 

Chapter 2 - Am I Strange?

Toto: I want to be owned by you no matter what...!

After waking up Toto-kun, I felt like an owner, but slightly different. When I arrived at the castle with Toto-kun like that, I was surprised that there were just a few servants in the castle aside from him. 

(Are Toto-kun's parents and siblings absent...?) 

As I looked around while thinking that it was strange, Toto-kun clung onto my arm a little more... 

Toto: Even if you look, there's no one here... I'm the only one that's living in the castle. 

He softly murmured that. 

MC: You live in such a big castle by yourself? That's...

- Sounds troubling... (☼)

MC: Sounds troubling... 

Toto: Yeah... 

- Sounds lonely... (☽)

MC: Sounds lonely... 

Toto: Yeah, I was really lonely up till now... 

 

///Choices///

Toto: But, you came along!

MC: Eh?

Toto: This whole time, my next owner... I've been searching for a master. 

MC: Next? 

(Now that he mentions it, was there someone that raised Toto-kun...?) 

As I was confused, Toto-kun looked at me. 

Toto: I can't do anything by myself... That's why, I want to be owned by you. Please. 

When he appealed to me with his eyes that were like a stray dog's, I ended up becoming deeply moved by his affections, but... 

MC: I'm sorry, that really seems a little difficult... 

Toto: Why? 

MC: Because, um... Owning people is a little strange... 

Toto: Am I... strange...? 

Toto-kun repeated my words and made an ecstatic expression. 

(Eh... Why is he being so ecstatic...!?) 

MC: J-Just now, that didn't make you happy... Right? 

Despite it seemed like I was more or less correct, Toto-kun tilted his head to the side in puzzlement and didn't look like he understands. 

Toto: But, being called strange by you... Being scolded by you made me really happy. 

MC: I-I see... 

(He really is strange...) 

Toto: So, won't you become my owner? 

(This conversation is going around in circles...) 

As I was at a complete loss, I looked towards the servants passing through the hall and just as I was about to ask them for help... They responded somewhat sadly in return towards the dilemma I was in... 

 

Chapter 3 - I'm Fine with This Person!

In the castle hall, I was at a complete loss when Toto-kun pressed me about wanting me to be his master again. 

(What should I do... It looks like Toto-kun won't understand no matter how many times I explain it to him...) 

Then, we heard the hall door opening. 

??: Toto-sama, you've returned...! ...Were you out looking for an owner again? 

As that voice echoed within the hall, the old gentleman walked over here. When I showed my face from Toto-kun's shadow, the old gentleman's expression stiffened up soon after. 

??: My apologies. If I had known that you had a guest... I'm Toto-sama's butler. 

MC: Nice to meet you. 

(What a relief... I finally found someone that looks like they'll listen.) 

When I felt truly relieved, I explained everything that has happened up till now. 

......

Butler: I see... The dream eaters got Toto-sama... For that... You have my gratitude for saving him. 

MC: It was nothing. 

Butler: More importantly, Toto-sama, why would you go to such a dangerous place? 

The moment the butler scolded Toto-kun...

Toto: ...So annoying. 

(Eh!?) 

When his cute behavior from before went away, I became surprised by Toto-kun's attitude and the annoyed look on his face. 

Toto: ...I was just looking for someone to be my owner. You got a problem with that? 

(Toto-kun...? He's suddenly talking so rudely...) 

As I was getting used to Toto-kun talking like that, the butler sighed and turned towards me. 

Butler: You must have been surprised by all sorts of things when you came to the castle. 

MC: Yes. There aren't a lot of people here after all. 

Butler: That's because Toto-sama is the only royal in this castle. Oswald-sama, the great wizard of Oz assigned this territory of Pad Town here to Toto-sama... Oswald-sama entrusted this land to Toto-sama to govern as a prince. 

MC: Is that so... Suddenly becoming a prince... 

///Choices///

 

- Must be troubling to do (☽)

MC: That must be troubling to do... 

When I felt sympathy towards Toto-kun's situation, his expression brightened up the moment he looked at me. 

Toto: That's right, it's really troubling for me! So, help me!

MC: Uh... 

- What an amazing story (☼)

MC: What an amazing story... 

When I ended up murmuring that dumbfoundedly, Toto-kun's eyes shined as he approached me. 

Toto: Just now, did you call me amazing as a praise? 

Toto-kun wagged his tail happily like a dog. 

(W-What should I do? He looks really happy.) 

As he was making that honest happy expression, I wanted to say that he's wrong, but I made a wry smile to dodge the question. 

 

///Choices///

Toto: ...I told Oswald. I'm fine with being a prince, but I can't do anything without someone owning me. 

(Come to think of it, he did say that...) 

It seemed like the butler agrees as he looked at me troubledly. 

Butler: ...Such an impudent request could take hundreds of years or an eternity... Traumerei Princess, is it possible for you to own Toto-sama? 

(Even the butler. But...) 

MC: Um... That's a little... 

Butler: Are you going to leave... My apologies, so please forget about it. 

Sympathizing with my feelings, the butler immediately pulled back. 

Butler: Someone from somewhere will become Toto-sama's owner, but... Once they do, it'll be considerably difficult... 

Toto: Huh? What are you saying? It can't be anyone else, I'm with this person! Aside from her, all other people are trash. 

(T-Trash...!?) 

Butler: Seems like Toto-sama has taken a huge liking to you, Traumerei Princess. 

The butler became deeply moved and started to cry... Unsure on what I should do, I just stood there.

Toto: Also... Even if you say no, I think this person is fine... 

He looked happy and sad... With an expression of both, Toto-kun sighed. I... 

///Choices///

 

- Is being a friend no good? (☽)

MC: Is being a friend no good? 

Toto: I want to be owned. 

- Why an owner? (☼)

MC: Why an owner? 

Toto: Why? 

 

///Choices///

Butler: ...Actually, Toto-sama lost his past memories...

MC: Eh? 

Butler: ...He doesn't remember why he's looking for an owner.

(So that's why Toto-kun is so fixated on the existence of an owner like this. ...A single prince with no memories...) 

When I looked around the inside of the vast castle that Toto-kun has been living alone in, complicated feelings took hold of me... 

 

Chapter 4 - I'll Be a Good Boy

In the empty vast castle hall, I found out that Toto-kun has been looking for an owner because of his lost memories... 

MC: ...Not having any other memories is so... 

Toto: Other? 

Toto-kun tilted his head to the side with an innocent look. 

Toto: I'm fine since I found Master. Yet, why are you making such a sad face? 

///Choices///

 

- To think that you have no memories (☼)

MC: But, to think that you have no memories... Isn't that hard? 

Toto: No. What's hard for me is when Master isn't around... 

- I would be scared if I was in the same position (☽)

MC: If I was in the same position, I would surely be scared... 

Toto: But, I'm okay.

 

///Choices///

Toto: I would be sad if Master isn't here...

When Toto-kun hung his head down disheartened, my feelings became slightly unstable from seeing how pitiful he looked. 

Toto: Um... I'll be a good boy. 

Toto-kun reached out towards me and held the hem of my clothes with his fingers. 

MC: ...

Just like before, I was unable to refuse him... 

Toto: Hey... 

Toto-kun was looking at me and nothing else with a heated gaze. 

(What should I do? At this rate, I might really give in to him... Ah, I know!) 

MC: Uh... How about the two of us go for a walk around town for a bit? 

Toto: A walk!? 

When I thoughtlessly suggested that as a way to get out of here, Toto-kun energetically raised his face and broke into a smile. 

Butler: Traumerei Princess... How are you going to do that? What if...

As the butler looked like he was going to question me about being Toto-kun's owner, I shook my head apologetically as a response. 

MC: If we go into town, we might come across some kind of clue to his memories...

(Even though Toto-kun said that he has been searching for an owner...) 

Since there's a possibility that Toto-kun is obsessed with the existence of an owner due to not having any other memories, I can't agree to his simple thinking. 

(Still... Despite that I can't be his owner, I want to help Toto-kun...) 

Butler: ...I see, looking for his memories. If he regains his memories, Toto-sama might stop sticking to the idea of an owner. 

MC: Yes...

Butler: I understand. Then, I'll leave Toto-sama into your care.

The butler looked at me with a somewhat bright expression and bowed. After I returned a smile to the butler, I headed to town with Toto-kun as he was uncontrollably excited...
