Edited by: Kanaa-senpai
Summary:

Everything changes when her newly awakened ‘Wish-Sight’ Gift targets the inconspicuous Hirose. Her intense, immediate reaction to his touch and ‘Beautician’ Gift unleashes a fiery passion she never knew she possessed, compelling her to claim him and fully embrace a polyamorous life of beautiful transformation and sexual fulfillment.

I—Rindou Hibiki—used to be just a normal girl.
I mean, maybe I’m still a normal girl, but back then I was just… the kind of girl you’d see anywhere. Despite the fact I had no sisters, there was always my cousin, Mizuki-nee, as a big sister figure for as long as I could remember. She was my absolute idol, everything I wanted to be.
Once I hit elementary school, the girls I was friends with seemed way more mature than the kindergarten crowd, and you could really see it. I got swept up in their talk, too—stuff about romance, beauty tips, and cute things. I quickly picked up on all the girl stuff.
Then came that day.
”Hibiki-chan, you’re kinda… plain, aren’t you?”
I’m pretty sure the next words were supposed to be something nice, like, ‘I bet you could be really cute if you just tried this or that.’ But all I heard was the negative part. It stuck with me, and from then on, every time someone said anything, I just assumed they were putting down my looks.
Maybe they genuinely meant it as a compliment, like seeing a diamond in the rough. But I couldn’t see it positively then, not at all.
”Mizuki-nee! Please make me cute!”
I went begging to the closest person I could rely on: my cousin, Housaka Mizuki, who was two years older than me.
Mizuki-nee had been cute, cool, stylish, and just plain gorgeous since she was little. She had this aura, you know? She could just stand there and become the center of attention, always brimming with confidence.
Her inner self obviously shone through, but at the time, all I really wanted was her perfect look.
”Hibiki, leave it to me! If you’ve got my blood running in your veins, you’re guaranteed to be cute!”
Her words made me so happy, and I started learning everything she taught me.
By the time I hit middle school, everything flipped.
”Rindou-san, I like you. Please go out with me.”
A confession. Just like that.
I’d improved my looks so much I barely recognized myself, and I’d gotten super stylish. That change must’ve shown up on the inside, too, because before I knew it, I was one of the prettiest, most popular girls in the class.
My negative thinking faded away, and I slowly started to become more like Mizuki-nee—super positive.
So, when that boy confessed to me, I was thrilled. After all those years of gabbing about romance with my friends since elementary school, it was a massive shock!
But a confession didn’t mean I was gonna date him. I didn’t know him at all, and he wasn’t my type, to be honest. I was into the cooler, handsomer, Prince Charming type. Someone who was so smooth he wouldn’t even break a sweat doing club activities, let alone smell like it. That was my type.
I kept getting confessed to regularly, but I never dated anyone.
Kushima Koharu, my best friend now, was the one who always listened to those stories. She had her own heavy stuff going on, but she always talked to me cheerfully every day. We were polar opposites in hobbies and looks, but somehow, we were tight.
”Hibiki-chan, maybe you should try to get to know the guys a little more? Looks are important, but the most important thing is their personality, you know?” Koharu ² would suggest, offering a different view.
She was an important person because she gave me an opposing opinion. All my other friends were just yes-people who could only have a conversation by agreeing with me. Still, my type was a cool, handsome guy. I figured I’d wait until the right personality came along, too.
When I got to high school, I enrolled in a school with lots of other cute girls. But even there, I naturally gravitated to the top of the class hierarchy, and the two cutest girls became my new friends.
”Let’s go on a Goukon¹!”
My new friends, Motoya Himari and Ihara Kairi, dragged me along to my first-ever group date.
To put it mildly, it was the worst. Himari and Kairi were barely holding in their anger by the time we left, and the second we said goodbye to the guys, that anger exploded.
”That was the worst! What was that?! They were so gross!” Himari shrieked.
”I blocked their contacts right away!” Kairi fumed.
The guys were pretty handsome, though. Maybe not my exact type, but definitely in the handsome category—students our age from another school. But they were all about crude jokes, getting too close, trying to body-touch us on a first meeting. They were clearly just after our bodies. They must’ve thought they were hot enough to get with us easily.
After that, I still yearned for romance, but part of me started thinking all men were trash. I hadn’t worked this hard on my beauty and refined my looks just for creeps like that.
Himari and Kairi didn’t want to hang out with guys for a while after that, and neither did I, of course. Just hanging out with them and Koharu was fun enough.
Then my turning point arrived.
I turned sixteen, the age when you could get your Gift appraised. I’d never once wanted to be an Adventurer, so I went for the appraisal casually, just hoping I’d get something useful for everyday life.
I was granted the Gift of ‘Wish’ and a Skill called ‘Wish-Sight.’
The Skill made any person I subconsciously desired shine brightly. I wasn’t even sure what I was truly looking for. I thought maybe a real-life Prince Charming would finally pop up, but ‘Wish-Sight’ didn’t react for a long time.
It was the fall of my first year of high school.
”Hey, Hirose, how’d your Gift appraisal go?”
”Ha ha, it was a disappointment, man.”
Those voices drifted from the classroom. Just on a whim—it was purely on a whim—I decided to use my Skill.
”—!!”
In that moment, a powerful light blazed.
”Hibiki? What’s wrong?”
”N-nothing…”
I was startled, my eyes glued to the sight. But he was the one boy in the class I barely knew, even after six months together. I didn’t know his first name—barely remembered his last.
Yet the instant I used my Skill, something inside me shifted.
That afternoon, I decided to follow Takanashi-kun, the boy who’d glowed. The moment I cornered him and spoke to him—I became a girl. I knew I couldn’t let him get away. And when he told me about his Gift and Skill, an uncontrollable excitement took over my body.
It was honestly embarrassing how I forced him to his room and, in a rush of excitement, started stripping off my clothes. When I cooled down a bit, I realized I might have acted without thinking of his feelings. Was I doing something similar to those trashy guys from the group date?
But he wasn’t mad at all. So I just got clingy and begged him, all cute-like.
He agreed to use his Skill on me, and since I was already mentally prepared, I took off my clothes and stood there in my underwear. His gaze on me was embarrassing, sure, but I didn’t mind it. I thought, He’s different from all the other guys.
Maybe that’s why. Why I gave in to his touch so quickly.
It was the first time someone of the opposite sex had touched my bare skin, but it was gentle, felt so good… it felt too good, and I totally lost it. I later learned it was because of the Skill’s Recoil, but my body was craving him from that moment on.
He was surprised, and I hadn’t planned on that happening either. But I just couldn’t hold back. His hands felt so nice, and I wanted him to make me feel good… so I attacked him.
I became like an animal, not myself at all. Even though it should have hurt, being my first time, I couldn’t stop asking for more.
I thought the joy of becoming beautiful after hearing about his Gift and Skill would be the most important thing. But when we were intimate, my heart felt full, and I was just happy.
As it turned out, he was thrilled. Apparently, he saw me as a flower on a high peak, and he didn’t hate what happened. Well, I knew I was cute, so I definitely used that to my advantage.
I wasn’t going to let him go, in any sense of the word. We kept sleeping together for the sake of the Skill, and I noticed myself falling more and more in love with him every time.
An entirely physical relationship was something my younger, romantic self could never have imagined. Getting to know someone as a friend first, then slowly falling in love… that was supposed to be the norm. But once I fell for him, the process didn’t matter anymore.
His face is plain, he’s got no real features that stand out. His looks are completely not my type. Yet I love him… my feelings just kept overflowing and getting stronger, and I couldn’t stop.
Then, finally, the Skill’s Effect manifested in my body. It was unbelievable. My skin had been reborn, as if I’d restarted my life from infancy—I was so happy I nearly screamed.
So, I wanted him to see my smooth, beautiful, and toned skin, and I begged him to hold me again. We got interrupted that time, but I got my revenge later, so I’ve forgiven it.
After that, I introduced Koharu and Kirino, who were both struggling with their own issues, to Hirose, and he helped them solve their problems.
I was jealous when it came to Koharu. I wasn’t in a position to say anything since we weren’t officially dating, but still…
But I thought about the future. Hirose isn’t the type of person who can belong to just one girl. He has a dream-like Gift for all girls. Plus, I understood it wasn’t just about getting beautiful; his Gift was amazing because it removed worries and complexes, too.
Still, there was one thing I wouldn’t budge on.
”I… I love you, Hirose.”
”I love you too, Hibiki.”
We officially started dating.
I never thought I’d be someone who cried over loving a person. Once I became his number one, the rest was easy to accept. So I accepted Koharu, and I accepted Kirino.
Sure, the relationships became a messier tangle of intimacy, but we were all happy, so I decided it was fine.
I never once thought that my beloved boyfriend might die. When that sign fell on his head, I thought it was over. But Kirino saved Hirose. I couldn’t protect Hirose. No matter how much I thought about it, I didn’t have the power to shield him.
But I did have a role to play, and Kirino was the one who taught me what it was. Mizuki-nee’s friend, Asumi-chan, whose Gift was appraised when she was sixteen, had teamed up with Mizuki-nee and her friends and rapidly shot up to A-rank. My Skill, ‘Wish-Sight,’ proved useful when Asumi-chan was in a life-or-death situation. I’m grateful for Kirino’s words.
Since meeting him—Hirose—I’ve experienced so much. Even our relationship is now class-approved. It’s totally different from the romance I imagined, but it’s still definitely happiness.
I know we’ll keep helping others with their problems, the three of us with Hirose. And he’s even started saying things just for me.
Now, all I have left to do is to stand by Hirose whenever he’s worried, affirm him without ever denying him, and just embrace him. Physically—with my chest.
If I can do that, all that’s left is to say ‘I love you, I love you, I love you’ and feel good.
Something I learned since I met Hirose is this: I’m actually kind of e-cchi (lewd) ³. Maybe it’s because he’s the one, or maybe I always had this potential. I might not be as perverted as Koharu or Kirino, but my desire for Hirose is definitely because I’m e-cchi.
”Hirose! Koharu! Kirino~~!”
I shout the names of the three people waiting for me outside the school. My three favorite people in the world.
They turn around, see me, and smile.
—Ah, I really do love them all.
Thank you for turning me from a simple dreamer into a real girl.
—Hirose… I’ll love you forever.
Thinking that, I rush toward them, and today, too, the four of us head to my room. And, giggling softly to myself, I start thinking about the naughty things we’ll do later.
