[Another Mermaid Princess’s Tale]
Now then, Nevia has long been a nation made primarily by those given the rank of “nobles”. Nobles have roles, behaviors, and duties appropriate for their position. Thus, in the city of art, Nevia, these noble and proud people must always be the protectors of beauty. They are the supporting patrons of the outstanding artists living in Nevia, and one of their missions is to grow these seedlings into fully blooming flowers of art.
Fufu, in Nevia, where beauty and art are highly respected, these artists that are the embodiment of excellent beauty have a high position. It seems some of the wise artists went so far as to say “I give you the privilege of investing in me”, really now, what a truly unmodest thing to say. These so-called nobles are quite vain, aren’t they? In the old Nevia, where the trend of art for art’s sake was rising, becoming the patron of a brilliant artist meant you could show off your aristocratic status to those around you, and the nobles searched for extremely talented artists to get ahead, then they began to scramble for artists, “enclosing” them.
On the other hand, if the artists could receive funding from the nobles, they could also hold large art exhibitions or theatrical performances in magnificent ateliers... With their support, they could expand their efforts as an artist, and above all else, they may even be granted the status of “noble”. While holding on to this dream, the artists pushed on to develop their talent.
And then, a certain aristocrat who plays a major role in both Nevia’s art history and modern history takes center stage: “Viscount Nevi”.
Like the Nevian aristocrats, he too was a man with a deep love for art. However, his line of thinking was a little different than that of the other nobles. It is said that the nobles of Nevia all employed famous painters and star actors, and then invited other nobles to art exhibitions and theatrical performances that they sunk money into as if they were competing. On the other hand, the Viscount only set his eyes on artists selling their art on street corners, or girls on the street aspiring for the stage like unpolished gems.
In addition to that, he also set up art exhibits and stage performances that even the commoners living in the city could visit. Based on his belief that “art should be loved by everyone”, the Viscount was trying to help artists who had yet to bathe in the rays of the sun, that is, those whose talents had yet to bloom, and make art loved by all.
At one point, the Viscount created an opera house named “Nevia Theater”. It was a beautiful theater surrounded by crimson roses. It was here that he stood the young actresses and singers he had invested in himself. The Viscount’s endeavor not only gave them experience, it also seemed to inspire the young artists who were invited to the public performances and other aspiring young artists, and Nevia Theater became recognized as the most suitable place for those striving for the dream of art. Day after day, the Viscount gathered young seedling artists in Nevia Theater, and generously offered them all a place to learn.
Before long, the artists he had supported gained popularity amongst the commoners. Some began to enjoy the artists’ growth and the diversity of art, and by the time it had spread to the nobles, it seems everyone became astonished by his skills and eye for art.
However... While Nevia Theater was booming, the Viscount had one major issue, and that was a hideous burn scar covering half of his face.
A twist of fate carved into him at an early age, due to this unerasable seal of tragedy, he always wore a mask, and never showed his true face to others. Nevertheless, on a certain moonlit evening, this inescapable scar suddenly bared its fangs, and brought him further tragedy!
Yes, unintentionally, during a curtain call at one of his usual performances, as he greeted the theater like always, his mask slipped off due to a mere trivial mistake.
Can you imagine it? The shocked gaze of the audience assembled at Nevia Theater, all who were gathered there at that moment were speechless at the sight of his hideous scar, their breath taken away. The Viscount promptly put his mask back on, but it was all too late. The fever of the performance that had filled the audience until that moment, the passion, the cheers given to the performers... Seeing the frightened gazes and chilling silence that now enveloped the audience, it was clear that all of it had been ruined.
“Did you hear? The rumors about the Viscount, oh yeah, that guy was just a monster. That guy was always sweet talking, trying to collect up only young artists, he must have had some kind of scheme, oh how scary.”
Rumors of the Viscount’s true face quickly became infamous and spread throughout Nevia. Sometimes the truth can be cruel, and just because of the scar on his face, things were said like “Such ugliness, it can’t be allowed into the gatherings of nobility”, or “Such ugliness, it can’t associate with famous artists”, and all of his virtues and good deeds started to be disavowed.
In Nevia, where beauty and art are prized, someone such as him who was rumored to be “just like a monster” was lethal to investors. Artists feared that his bad reputation would spread to themselves, and the number of artists visiting the Viscount diminished day by day, and in the same fashion, the number of customers visiting Nevia Theater quickly dwindled.
“Ah, how could this happen? This is all my fault, it’s because of my stupid carelessness. With this... If this happens, the future of the young artists I have gathered will be closed...!”
Sunk into the abyss of disappointment and despair, he was even thinking about closing the opera house, then, one night, he heard a clumsy singing voice in the supposedly empty Nevia Theater. It was here that the Viscount met a young Merrow maiden aiming to become a singer, “Christine”.
The country of Nevia was not a country that was friendly to monsters, but, on the other hand, they were neither hostile to them nor did they reject them. Therefore, although the number was small, there were a few monsters in the country.
The Viscount had happened to hear that among the monsters, there were some that were born with a devilish singing voice that far exceeded that of the average human singer. Above all, the merfolk were said to have possessed the most beautiful singing voice among monsters... However, the song of the monster singing before the Viscount’s eyes was fairly crude, even from an amateur’s point of view. Even he, who had found the beauty in many an immature artist, had to admit that she simply had no talent.
“What is this?... Haa, that’s all that’s left in my Nevia Theater, huh... Well, it’s not like anyone is listening, I suppose she’ll have enough soon and leave...”
Thinking this, at first he didn’t care, but every day and every night when he visited the empty Nevia Theater, there was Christine, singing her heart out despite having no hope of improving.
One day, the Viscount finally couldn’t stand her, and shouted at her.
“That’s enough! Look here, you have to sing with more emotion!”
From then on, the Viscount called out to Christine every night. Under the Viscount’s passionate instruction Christine quickly... well, I can’t say quickly, but her ability as a singer slowly improved.
Time passed for a while after that, and before they knew it, as if in response to Christine’s voice echoing throughout the theater, the roses surrounding the withered Nevia Theater revived once more, emitting a wonderous glow at night, changing into a type of monster realm rose with an even deeper crimson than before, which would later come to be called the “Nevian Rose”.
With this, as if guided by its beautiful radiance, people began to come out to gather around Nevia Theater and gaze at it. More and more people began visiting Nevia Theater to listen to the beautiful singing voice faintly leaking from inside, and Nevia Theater reclaimed its former prosperity.
Thus was born the first human and monster student and master in Nevia, and they became a hot topic in Nevia due to both the good and bad reputation of Nevia Theater, as well as being such an unusual sight. He rises magnificently on the stage, guiding Christine, who sings to the best of her ability to meet his expectations, and Nevia Theater is revived...or so it would seem.
The sad thing is, shortly after this, the Great War between the seven islands broke out. The people were exhausted from the conflict, and with no room in their hearts for art, they drifted away from it. Customer turnout dwindled, and the funds the Viscount used for the theater and arts became collected by the country for the Great War, and frankly, it would not have been strange for the theater to close at any time.
Still, the Viscount continued to hold public performances at the theater, saying he didn’t want to rob Christine of the place where she continued to seriously and fervently sing.
...Now, in accordance with the history of Court Alf, after this, the seven islands were united by the Great Songstress’s song, and the Great War was brought to a close, but this was their turning point.
The devoted sacrifice of the Great Songstress, and the dramatic end of the war by the Prince’s love. Doesn’t such a story make your heart tremble in pursuit of art?
Exactly. Songs and plays of “The Mermaid Princess’s Tale” became all the rage in Nevia. Every theater held performances of The Mermaid Princess’s Tale, and it was always a roaring success. Of course, Nevia Theater also followed along. The role of the Mermaid Princess was to be played by Christine. To the Viscount, the Mermaid Princess was Christine, not the Great Songstress.
It was Christine who stayed singing by the Viscount’s side when he was having a rough time. He couldn’t even pay her performance fee, and yet she continued to sing at the Nevia Theater without a displeased face. The Viscount wanted to provide her with the best stage he could. He hired the best playwrights, and prepare the greatest actor for the role of Prince. Of course, the Viscount didn’t have the money for it, but it seems he was thinking of selling off everything but the theater itself, even his own estate.
However, when the Viscount approached Christine to talk about the performance, she shook her head when she heard it. This surprised the Viscount. That was because until now, she had never once opposed the Viscount’s guidance, or refused his proposals for performances.
Despite this, instead of refusing to perform, she said that she would absolutely never perform The Mermaid Princess unless the screenplay she prepared and the actor she appointed were used. The Viscount was truly surprised at this. That was because the actor she appointed to play the role of the Prince was none other than Viscount Nevi.
The script of the play was very similar to what the Viscount and Christine had been doing so far at Nevia Theater. At the climax, when the Mermaid Princess finishes her song of love for the Prince, the masked Viscount, appointed the role of Prince, removes his mask just like that fateful time. Only this time, it’s scripted.
The Prince in The Mermaid Princess’s Tale spoke of his own inner ugliness. The Viscount spoke of his own outer ugliness. For that reason, they weren’t suitable for the Mermaid Princess. However, the Mermaid Princess wasn’t having any of that. She merely gazed at the hideously scared face of the Prince, who had unmasked before her for the first time, with a spellbound expression. Then, the Mermaid Princess slowly strokes the scar as if cherishing it, and brings her face to the Prince as if sucked in, and they kiss.
The play ends here. The audience was wrapped up in silence just like that fateful time... However, in the silence, tears began to fall from the eyes of many audience members. Some suddenly stood up. Unsure why they stood up, they didn’t applaud or leave, they just clasped their shaking hands to their mouths. The whole audience had felt the beauty of the play’s final scene. Also among the audience were those that had called the Viscount a monster after that first incident. This time, they felt truly ashamed of themselves for not seeing the beauty within the Viscount.
This is “Another Legend of the Mermaid Princess” passed down in Nevia. People from all over the island came to Nevia Theater to see this play. Since then, the people of Nevia have come to see the beauty in everything, not just famous art. As a result, the image of humans and monsters in love is treated as a popular art motif. Little by little, the number of monsters on the island grew, as well as the number of those who wished to love them. Nevia, which changed slowly but surely like a blooming flower, now has “Nevian Roses” dyed crimson with the passion of love fully blooming all over the island.
However, I think this “Another Legend of the Mermaid Princess” is terrible as a play. Why is that? Because such a thing is not a play. It’s simply not a play. What do you think Christine was thinking at the time when she saw the Viscount’s face?
“Even though you’re ugly, I’m still in your debt”?
“I love you so much, I don’t care about your ugliness”?
“I don’t think it’s that ugly”?
It would seem these are all wrong. Perhaps she wasn’t thinking anything. No, she couldn’t think of anything. She merely saw the Viscount’s face for the first time, and had an unbearable urge to breed. She merely wanted to mate with the Viscount, and get pregnant with his child.
Christine, playing the Mermaid Princess, was unmistakably in love. There was unmistakable passion. Unmistakable feelings. It’s no wonder why the audience was so strongly shaken by emotion when they saw that. That’s because that girl wasn’t performing a play. In that final scene, Christine was not an actress, she was just a female. The only thing moving her was her raw “emotions”.
Now then, that sure took a while, but here ends the tale of Viscount Nevi, who is now a legendary troupe master, and Christine, who became our first Diva.
Hmm? Even though I didn’t see it all directly, how can I recall it like that? Fufu... Well you see, the reason I told you this story is that tonight, I’m thinking of taking the stage at Nevia Theater. The leading roles are me, and of course, you.
What, don’t be so surprised or anxious. I think I’ll teach you with my own body just what happened when my mother, the first Diva Christine, went on stage with my beloved father, that is, Viscount Nevi, and what happened afterwards...♥
Nevia is a city adorned in beautiful roses... I am but one of those roses, the matchless Diva who inherited a song from the beautiful Great Songstress, Eustine!
Fufu, my apologies. It’s no wonder why you’re taken aback. I am an actress after all. Sometimes our narrative can become a little exaggerated. However, our emotions also become stirred up for that very reason... Ah, perhaps this is fate, or destiny! Be gracious of your good fortune that I am escorting you! Come, don’t be afraid to take my hand! Seeing is believing, and if you visit this island with me, our beautiful Nevia shall never bore you! The colorful flowers on this island will very soon steal your heart!
Fufu, when I bring my face close like this, your cheeks turn red, you are indeed quite cute...♥
The power of “Passion” dwells within Nevia’s songs, and all of the flowers blooming in this city are passionate about love. Fufu, that includes me as well...♥ Indeed, any moment now! I wish to sing with you! I wish to dance together! However, patience is a virtue... It is essential to express one’s originality, but the largest flowers only bloom when the soil has been carefully and precisely laid layer by layer! Fufufu...♥ One day, I hope to have you fall for me♥ However, before you can love me, you must come to love this island that I love above all else, for this is the sad fate of a Diva, I must sometimes speak of this island’s love more than my own love!
What, don’t look like that, it isn’t complicated. This step is truly simple, allow me to guide you with my lips, my words, my love, and together we will trace the long path of Nevia’s journey, and gradually, slowly, come to understand each other♥

Christine, playing the Mermaid Princess, was unmistakably in love. There was unmistakable passion. Unmistakable feelings. It’s no wonder why the audience was so strongly shaken by emotion when they saw that. That’s because that girl wasn’t performing a play. In that final scene, Christine was not an actress, she was just a female. The only thing moving her was her raw “emotions”.
Now then, that sure took a while, but here ends the tale of Viscount Nevi, who is now a legendary troupe master, and Christine, who became our first Diva.
Hmm? Even though I didn’t see it all directly, how can I recall it like that? Fufu... Well you see, the reason I told you this story is that tonight, I’m thinking of taking the stage at Nevia Theater. The leading roles are me, and of course, you.
What, don’t be so surprised or anxious. I think I’ll teach you with my own body just what happened when my mother, the first Diva Christine, went on stage with my beloved father, that is, Viscount Nevi, and what happened afterwards...♥
Spoiler
It seems your face has gotten very red, and your breath ragged, are you alright? Come, please firmly take my hand! Entrust your body to me, leave it all to me, and I shall support you!
Fufu, it seems you’re even redder now♥ You really are just so unbearably cute...♥
Take a look at those two walking over there, that man is a guest, and the young woman with a parasol embracing his arm is one of Nevia Theater’s Song Maidens. Leading our important guests by the hand, slowly escorting them like this, such is the way of Nevia’s Diva and Song Maidens. It’s just like a lady and gentlemen heading to a ball, isn’t it? Fufu♥ There’s no need to hesitate, as I personally believe I am very fortunate to be allowed to take your beloved hand like this...♥
Hm? You’re wondering what race that young woman and I belong to? Fufu, take a look at these ears and red hat, that young woman and I are a type of mermaid called a “Merrow”. Hmm, what’s that? Our legs are human, not fish? Ah, apologies, you haven’t been told have you. This is one of the spells many monsters can use, called an “Anthropomorphosis Spell”. It allows even mermaids such as us to temporarily have legs like this. All of the Song Maidens in our Nevia specialize in this magic. Fufu, we are actors after all.
Now then, it’s still a little way to our Nevia Theater. Why don’t we take a break around here and take in the sights of the city? After all, art is something you must experience with your own eyes, take a look at that house over there, the hedges of beautiful Nevian Roses surrounding it, it’s such a splendid garden, don’t you think♪ That house over there has a splendid multi-layer arch of roses, and next to that, a rather magnificent shrubbery arranged in the shape of a mermaid...a wonderful topiary that even feels bewitching. Fufu, they look like gardens of a noble’s mansion or a royal castle, don’t they? Let’s see, in order, I believe those are a novelist’s house, violinist’s house, and if I’m not mistaken, that garden with the grandest topiary is the baker’s apprentice’s house?
“Art should be loved by everyone.”
As these words say, the art culture that was once centered around aristocrats is now loved by all in Nevia, free to see and create. And now, the crimson mamono realm roses in full bloom in these gardens, the “Nevian Roses”, are a symbol of our island loved by all, from noble to commoner.
Speaking of Nevia and these mamono realm roses, Nevia is also called “The Island of Roses” due to this scenery, and every single one of these ordinary buildings pleases the eyes of visitors as “Nevia’s Rose Estates”. Furthermore, this waterway flowing through the city is beautiful, and you can feel the fixation on beauty of Nevia’s craftsman in the very waterway itself, but the roses floating in the water accentuate the water’s beauty even further.
Also... whoops, looks like one came out just in time. As you can see, the waterway is also a passage for mermaids. It’s said that there are many guests whose hearts are stolen by the limbs of the lovely rose-colored mermaids. All of the monsters in this city take pride in being a part of our beautiful Nevia, and playing a role in the arts. They never neglect their efforts to make their charm and beauty stand out, and to make the scenery of the city even more beautiful from their own existence.
Fufu, it seems that mermaid we just passed has captivated that man watching over there. It seems she’s noticed it too. Let’s hope it turns out well.
Monsters are a part of Nevia’s works of art, and they want you to feel that beauty to your heart’s content. Of course, in order to more deeply understand such beauty, rather than just gazing at it, it’s absolutely fine to touch it directly with your hands, feel the monster with your own body, and receive their love...♥ Fufufu, of course, personally, I want you to only desire to look at me♥
As you can see, in Nevia, the nobles, city folk, and monsters are rather showy. Attention seeking is said to be a bad thing, but it’s not all that bad is it? The beauty our predecessor nobles competed to enhance has left us with such beautiful scenery. And then, the desire of people and monsters to see it themselves became passionate, and inspired beautiful love between people and monsters. It may have only been for nobles in the past, but now everyone can pursue beauty, and enjoy art. Being able to discover beauty in anything and enjoy that beauty means that there is calm in people’s hearts. This is why, after many twists and turns, the city of Nevia came to find the beauty in my parents. That is why I love Nevia.
Fufu♥ That expression is cute, but don’t be jealous♥ My love as a woman is just for you. That’s why I want you to also love my beloved Nevia.
Now then, I’d like you to enjoy Nevia as soon as possible, however, Nevia is easily the largest of the seven islands. There are plenty of casual cafés, opera halls, and places for monster couples to take a break all over the island. Fufu, was that a little too indirect? As you can probably guess, in Nevia, the true aim is to deliberately take detours, slowly touring around the whole island while enjoying art, and spend time leisurely enjoying sightseeing. In Nevia, it’s a little unfashionable to go around the whole island in just one day♪ While the sun shines, it’s sometimes nice to go down a path with a loved one in the afternoon where the trees are casting shadows, and then turn around to see a different view than before. You can also have a wonderful time by stopping by a garden of beautifully blooming roses you suddenly came across, and then sit down on the stairs and enjoy a chat with mermaids in the waterway while enveloped in the scent of roses. And in the end, you will visit Nevia Theater. And then, you listen to the singing voice of the Diva on stage, Eustine.
Fufu, little by little, slo~wly...♥
Just like this, why don’t we go cultivate our love little by little...♥

Diva Introduction
• Diva: Eustine
• Species: Merrow
• Favorite Color: I like red, it’s the passionate color Nevia is proud of.
• Favorite Type: “Hm, this is a rather difficult question. Since we will be going on stage together, a gentleman with flexibility would be ideal, but on the other hand, even gentlemen with conspicuous inflexibility and stubbornness can consistently deliver a brilliant performance.
I, personally, am stubbornly assertive, and there is something about show-off men that I’m attracted to, but I also think that the shyness of a gentleman who is not good at expressing himself is cute.”
• How to Spend a Holiday: “Besides acting, I also enjoy watching the stage, and on my days off, I go around visiting stages all over Nevia, viewing a great variety of operas. The theatrical scene of Nevia is rapidly advancing, constantly changing, and even a program that has long been loved and called noble has as many ways to bewitch you as there are stars in the sky. I can’t rest on my laurels just because I’m a Diva. Every day is a wonderful day of persistently studying. Fufu, of course, I’m often inspired by the operas I see, especially the ones with passionate love affairs of couples, and I wish to have a companion that will passionately “demonstrate” them with me right away later that night.”
Diva Introduction from a Song Maiden
You’d like me to tell you about Lady Eustine? Why yes, I’d be delighted to. I am a Song Maiden of Nevia Theater, and will be the one graciously by your side, if I may be of any assistance, please let me know.
Indeed, Lady Eustine is the greatest Diva of all time, in addition to her beautiful songs and acting, she also manages wonderful screenplays. She is a beautiful lady known for dressing like a man, and she often plays the role of a man on stage. The image of Lady Eustine on Nevia Theater’s stage, leading actors of all races, is so wonderful...♥ It seems male customers often say they “understood a woman’s feelings”♥
Also, she plays all sorts of roles, and no matter the role, she draws the audience into the world of the play, such is that lady’s power. The role of a knight as passionate as roses, the role of a prince who is cold but truly wants to be loved, the role of a great brave pirate...and the historical drama of the seven islands of Court Alf, in which she plays the starring role. For that reason, some call her “Seven Colors Eustine”.
Moreover, she is the greediest seeker of beauty in Nevia... Every time she takes the stage, those who visit Nevia Theater shall discover a new form of beauty♥ She is always greedy for beauty, and for the sake of preserving passion, setting aside her pride in her current position, she frequently visits the other islands, spying on love affairs... or rather, it seems she goes out collecting information by gathering news of romantic stories.
Tell me, are you aware of the greatest masterpiece novel “Nevia’s Makai Rose”, written by Eustine, who knows many such secret stories of love? Ufufu♥ I suppose it’s understandable that a foreign gentleman such as yourself wouldn’t know. It’s a love story with a reputation for sympathizing with emotions and instincts, and it has earned popularity mainly amongst women, its wave of popularity has spread not only through Court Alf, but also to the Mamono Lord in the Monster Realm, and even human cities.
And then there’s the “Nevia’s Makai Rose” stage play! This is the play that raised the Diva Nevia is so proud of to the world stage. There are times when authority figure couples from the Royal Monster Realm come to Nevia Theater, and it’s even said that a bishop of The Order of the Chief God was begged by their daughter to see it incognito♪ Because of all this, Lady Eustine has a “Fan Club” that spans the whole globe, and in addition to monster fans, there are even lots of female human fans who often come to see her on stage♥
Also, Lady Eustine is a person very enthusiastic about instructing Song Maidens, and in screenplays written by her own hands, she selects a rookie Song Maiden as the leading role, giving us Song Maidens the opportunity to positively take the stage.
...Eh? She sounds friendly? Ah, no, ahem, pardon me. Calling her friendly is a little... N-no, I don’t mean to speak ill of her! She is a lady we admire, and she usually acts calm and gentlemanly towards everyone... However, generally speaking, she is a person with strong passion regarding the stage, and does not compromise at all...so it is said... This is also a part of her guidance... I believe she is fixated on making us Song Maidens look beautiful, and instructs us until very late. In particular, she educates us in various ways with aesthetic guidance on what to say when in front of the gentleman we will one day meet that will become our companion, so that we may show him our most beautiful and lascivious appearance♥ If I were to do it, even though this lewd body of mine has never actually done it, what would happen to me if a gentleman stuck it in?... Ahh, Ahh...♥
Ah! A-ahem! Please excuse me. I’ve shown you a disgraceful side of me. There are many of Nevia’s Song Maidens in Lady Eustine’s fan club, and some apparently became Song Maidens because they wanted to be taught by her. Me? Naturally, I too adore Lady Eustine... Eh? You’ll root for me? N-no, I don’t have those kinds of feelings...! Rather, I’m interested in gentlemen, or more precisely, I’m very interested in you, you even look kind of delicious... I mean-! Awawa, such a shameful thing again! P-please forget that!

Fuu... Thank you for your concern... Umm, about the power of the “Song of Passion” inherited by our Diva, right. The power of Nevia’s song is to fan the flames of passion, igniting them.
Passion is vitality, its flames are the driving force for one to accomplish things, and Lady Eustine’s singing ignites those flames in those listening to her. Some people, the fires of love ignited in their hearts, finally cross the line and unite to express their feelings...♥ For others, their once lost and smoldering love is once more revived as an undying blaze, and they begin to cuddle up with a companion from long ago, entwining their fingers and whispering words of love...♥
Passion is the power to move forward, its flames illuminate one’s path. Song Maidens, novelists, artists... Some have their hearts fired up for what they hold dear, and they begin to embrace the passion that can realize their dreams... For others, their hearts having given up, devoured by apathy, once more regain their fervor, recalling the passion of those old days and rising up...!
This is what the Song of Passion brings. Ignite a blaze of love and dreams in those lacking the flames of passion, revive the love and dreams of those whose flame was once extinguished, and then, to those whose flame is already lit, continue to bring the heat to even greater heights.
In Nevia, people hold on to their dreams, and love sprouts everyday...♪ By the time those that have stepped foot in Nevia Theater come out, their flames of love have burst, and a woman overcome with emotion from the very passionate confession of a gentleman hugs him close, instinctively stealing his lips...♥ Some people even come out of the theater while flirting and groping each other’s bodies... Ah, I can’t stand it♥ I just can’t stand it♥
...Haa, umm, that is... It isn’t limited to love and sensual affairs, artists with a strong passion for things such as art, song, and literature, as well as those who were moved from witnessing Nevia Theater’s stage, often hold dreams in their heart and are born as new artists♪
The Song of Passion, which can be said to symbolize Nevia, is not something that can be sung simply by knowing it. No matter who they are, man or monster, there is a story to everyone’s life. Those who sing the Song of Passion must understand, imagine, and get close to that story. In order to stir emotion, provoke sympathy, and ignite flames in their heart, you must be able to imagine and describe a continuation of that life’s story, and a path to a happy ending. Truly, it is a song meant to be sung by a Diva such as Lady Eustine, who has played various stories and experienced the life stories of many people as if they were her own.
However, perhaps due to the nature of monsters, the thing that flares up and throbs the most due to her song are the flames of love...♥ When I listen to it as well, it becomes quite the problem♥ Aah, if I remember it, my body gets hot... Aah♥ Around my belly... my womb is... Fufu... Fufufu...♥

I’ve done it again... You saw something like heart shapes in my eyes? Uuu... Truly, something so indecent... Really now, why must the Merrow race be so...
Aah... Thank you for comforting me...♥ Kind sir♥ Wonderful sir...♥
What am I saying!? Again!! Umm, umm, next, I would like to explain what kind of duties the Diva and Song Maidens perform.
All of Nevia’s Song Maidens are members of the “Nevia Theater” theatrical company led by the Diva, and they stand on the stage day and night to show people songs and plays. “Nevia Theater” represents this city full of much beauty... We practice every day to maintain our beauty and elegance so that we shall never let down the beautiful city of Nevia, the beautiful hearts of its people, and those that call us beautiful.
The Nevia Theater company is divided into three groups according to their roles. There is the Lustre Group composed of male actors, the Blossom Group composed of female actresses, and the Night Group, which is in charge of screenplay and production. As you can see, I am a member of the Blossom Group.
At Nevia Theater, these three groups work together to complete the stage. The Night Group is in charge of supporting the Lustre and Blossom Groups while they are on stage from behind the scenes, and many of its members are girls that aren’t Song Maidens, and they are always thinking up wonderful screenplays and making the stage production even more beautiful with magic and magical tools. Fufu, the Night Group’s magical tools are of extremely high level, and are used on other song islands, such as Al Mar’s wedding ceremonies, or Matori’s pirate demonstrations♪
It’s the Lustre and Blossom Groups’ beauty that customers actually witness... However, of the three groups, the Night Group receives the most applicants... That’s because it has the greatest appeal to us monsters. That is, there are also many “gentlemen” working behind the scenes in the Night Group... Once you’ve crossed the line with each other, you can work with your beloved husband every day! Heading to the theater every day, arms entwined, working together while flirting, and then heading home together and immediately returning to the bed! Even while we were practicing, there was a sensual, delighted little gasping from behind the stage... ♥Aah... I’m jealous...♥
...Eh? Y-yes! Let me continue! Nevia’s honorable Diva is chosen from these three groups, but as I explained earlier, the Song of Passion is not something you can sing just because you are good at singing or acting. For that reason, the Diva is directly nominated by “The Great Songstress”. And the most ideal opportunity for The Great Songstress to witness the stage is during the annual “Nevia Opera Festival”. Troupe Leader Nevi, the current Diva, and The Great Songstress choose the most outstanding actor of the year.
However, although the Opera Festival is held every year, The Great Songstress has not chosen a Diva the past several years. After all, our current Diva, Lady Eustine, is the greatest of all time. In this way, it is one of the duties of Song Maidens to stand on stage and present Nevia’s beauty, but alongside that, unmarried Song Maidens also have the important role of sincerely escorting guests that have come for sightseeing, so that they may enjoy Nevia even more, and feel this city’s beauty...♥
Ufufu♥ That person’s stage recitals may be harsh as it is, but in order to fulfill this duty, we receive even more grueling training in the art of “Anthropomorphosis Spells”. Did you pass through Al Mar on your way here? Then you have noticed that compared to that city, Nevia has fewer waterways, correct? Like I am now, Nevia’s Song Maidens always nestle closely to our guests while guiding them, it’s not as if our mermaid limbs can’t move on land, but rather they can become a nuisance to taking our guest’s hands. That is why the “Anthropomorphosis Spell” is an essential skill for the Song Maidens of Nevia.
Also, low proficiency in Anthropomorphosis Spell can cause a monster’s instinct to strengthen... That is to say, if you get excited, it will come undone. Normally... it won’t come undone unless you have sex, but Merrows... As you saw earlier, it’s rather easy for us to get excited... Indeed, although I’m particularly thrilled just to be locking arms with you right now, if you would happen to have something to touch me even more deeply, I’d...♥
Yes? “How about we try it?”, you say...? Eh...... Ahh...♥
Aah... Thank you for comforting me...♥ Kind sir♥ Wonderful sir...♥
What am I saying!? Again!! Umm, umm, next, I would like to explain what kind of duties the Diva and Song Maidens perform.
All of Nevia’s Song Maidens are members of the “Nevia Theater” theatrical company led by the Diva, and they stand on the stage day and night to show people songs and plays. “Nevia Theater” represents this city full of much beauty... We practice every day to maintain our beauty and elegance so that we shall never let down the beautiful city of Nevia, the beautiful hearts of its people, and those that call us beautiful.
The Nevia Theater company is divided into three groups according to their roles. There is the Lustre Group composed of male actors, the Blossom Group composed of female actresses, and the Night Group, which is in charge of screenplay and production. As you can see, I am a member of the Blossom Group.
At Nevia Theater, these three groups work together to complete the stage. The Night Group is in charge of supporting the Lustre and Blossom Groups while they are on stage from behind the scenes, and many of its members are girls that aren’t Song Maidens, and they are always thinking up wonderful screenplays and making the stage production even more beautiful with magic and magical tools. Fufu, the Night Group’s magical tools are of extremely high level, and are used on other song islands, such as Al Mar’s wedding ceremonies, or Matori’s pirate demonstrations♪
It’s the Lustre and Blossom Groups’ beauty that customers actually witness... However, of the three groups, the Night Group receives the most applicants... That’s because it has the greatest appeal to us monsters. That is, there are also many “gentlemen” working behind the scenes in the Night Group... Once you’ve crossed the line with each other, you can work with your beloved husband every day! Heading to the theater every day, arms entwined, working together while flirting, and then heading home together and immediately returning to the bed! Even while we were practicing, there was a sensual, delighted little gasping from behind the stage... ♥Aah... I’m jealous...♥
...Eh? Y-yes! Let me continue! Nevia’s honorable Diva is chosen from these three groups, but as I explained earlier, the Song of Passion is not something you can sing just because you are good at singing or acting. For that reason, the Diva is directly nominated by “The Great Songstress”. And the most ideal opportunity for The Great Songstress to witness the stage is during the annual “Nevia Opera Festival”. Troupe Leader Nevi, the current Diva, and The Great Songstress choose the most outstanding actor of the year.
However, although the Opera Festival is held every year, The Great Songstress has not chosen a Diva the past several years. After all, our current Diva, Lady Eustine, is the greatest of all time. In this way, it is one of the duties of Song Maidens to stand on stage and present Nevia’s beauty, but alongside that, unmarried Song Maidens also have the important role of sincerely escorting guests that have come for sightseeing, so that they may enjoy Nevia even more, and feel this city’s beauty...♥
Ufufu♥ That person’s stage recitals may be harsh as it is, but in order to fulfill this duty, we receive even more grueling training in the art of “Anthropomorphosis Spells”. Did you pass through Al Mar on your way here? Then you have noticed that compared to that city, Nevia has fewer waterways, correct? Like I am now, Nevia’s Song Maidens always nestle closely to our guests while guiding them, it’s not as if our mermaid limbs can’t move on land, but rather they can become a nuisance to taking our guest’s hands. That is why the “Anthropomorphosis Spell” is an essential skill for the Song Maidens of Nevia.
Also, low proficiency in Anthropomorphosis Spell can cause a monster’s instinct to strengthen... That is to say, if you get excited, it will come undone. Normally... it won’t come undone unless you have sex, but Merrows... As you saw earlier, it’s rather easy for us to get excited... Indeed, although I’m particularly thrilled just to be locking arms with you right now, if you would happen to have something to touch me even more deeply, I’d...♥
Yes? “How about we try it?”, you say...? Eh...... Ahh...♥

By the way, I’ve been speaking for a while, aren’t you tired by now? This area is only the gateway to the island, “Rose Garden Way”. Although it is a common Nevian residential area, it is a district that came to be called that because the residents here enjoy constructing rose gardens, entertaining the eyes of passers-by with their beauty. It’s quite a way to the art street where Nevia Theater is located, so let’s take a break over at that store.
This place is “Amora Nevia”, a shop specializing in teas made from Nevia’s local specialty, Nevian Roses. The interior is also quite lovely, but I’d highly recommend the terrace seating. Ufufu, don’t you think it’s very fashionable and cute with its little botanical garden of roses? Now then, would you like to order a Rose Tea that I recommend?...
Ara, are you wondering about that empty flower vase on the table? You’ll understand soon♪ From these terrace seats, you can enjoy the roses decorating the store, as well as look out at all of the rose gardens at those houses, and in the square before you... Ara, that gentleman has begun playing a lute. What a fascinating melody... Ara, it seems that man and woman over there took each other’s hand and started dancing, I suppose they couldn’t help it after hearing the melody of love from that gentleman’s lute. The figure of them dancing while holding hands, their happy expressions, as if they were thinking of each other... Kyaa♥ As the performance ended and the spectators applauded, t-they kissed...♥ Haa...♥ That woman’s cheeks flushed red with the urge to breed, eyes moist with lust... Ufufu♥ It’s like the two of them joined for the first time at that moment♥ They went off hand in hand, but surely after this they’ll... Yes♥ Everyone that lives in Nevia enjoys art and music like this. Men and women are often paired together like this♥ If you’d like, we too can...
Ah, umm, it seems our order has arrived. How do you do? This gallantly beautiful and elegant waitress dressed like a man is now retired, but was originally a member of the Lustre Group... my senior, who now runs this shop with her husband. She is a person with deep knowledge of Nevian Roses, and can tell you anything concerning them, from information about roses and the taste and benefits of making them into tea, to anecdotes about roses. Rose seeds are also sold at this shop, so you can also ask her about growing them.
Fufu, our waitress has just placed a single rose into that empty flower vase... At this shop, a single rose, which is an ingredient in the rose tea, is used like this to decorate the table. Why don’t you compare the aroma of the rose tea and this rose? They both have very nice scents, don’t they? The Nevian Rose, which is raised with mana, is truly worthy of bearing the name of the city of passion, and depending on how passionate the person raising them is, they will become a deeper red and the scent will change♥ The scent of a rose of someone passionate about song and someone passionate about art will differ...
So what is the scent of this rose? My, it’s the aroma of love♥ It means you and I seemed to have such a relationship in the eyes of the waitress...♥ Ufufu♥ After all, I love a rose raised by the passionate love of a couple. In Nevia, by wearing roses grown as a couple, you can show just how strongly you love each other. Aah, how lovely, that Dhampir and her partner that just crossed the square... That large rose with its petals spread out in countless layers is incredibly difficult to grow...! It must be flooded with a considerable amount of brutal monster mana and a man’s violently powerful mana, a delicacy that cannot be neglected even a little bit...! ... Surely, all night long, no, with petals that large, there is no doubt they must be joining in the bedroom over and over all day long...! Perhaps you can’t call it something as elegant as “joining”, but rather, copulation♥ Just like a strong male pins down a submissive female and unilaterally ravishes her to exhaustion, that dignified Dhampir over there appears at first glance to be elegantly leading that man, but serves as an outlet for her husband’s primal desires all day... Aah, I can’t♥ I just can’t♥
Haa, what am I doing! I accidentally got excited! I’m just a little fanatical about roses. Umm, I’ll drink some tea and calm down... Fuu... This rose tea, it has a passionate aroma and taste, don’t you think? When I drink it, my mind calms down, but my body’s core starts to heat up... Ufufufu♥ When I look at you dear sir, my chest and lower body get hotter and hotter...♥
Spoiler
Uuu... Because I got all excited, we had to take another break... On top of disgracing myself, I’ve only been a bother to you...
Ah, yes... This is “Clock Tower Park”. As you can see, there is a clock tower towering in the center that was built by a proud Nevian watchmaker together with his Merrow wife, who is a sorcerous engineer, and it’s one of the symbols of Nevia’s beauty. Fufu♥ After all, humans and monsters, men and women, coming together is more beautiful than anything♥
Adorned all over with beautiful carved roses, not only is the tower itself gorgeous, but the clock face surrounded by statues of mermaids is also wonderful...♥ The park spreads out around the clock tower, and with the refreshing waterways surrounding it and the calm, quiet atmosphere, it is a place where lovers can relax and get intimate♥ Ufufu, the people sitting over there... There are lovers everywhere under the shade of that tree♥ And when the time is just right, a mechanism created by that craftsman couple activates in the clock...and it’s almost time... Ah, just like this, every hour a mechanism causes the mermaid statues to start swimming around the clock face as if dancing, and a wonderful clear tone flows from the clock to signal the time♪
...Ara, have you noticed the state of our surroundings?♥ The lovers around the park have started to wrap their arms around each other’s backs, hugging deeply♥ Yes, this chime imitates the Diva’s Song of Passion. It doesn’t compare to the real song, but it still lights and flares up the fires of passion in the listeners♥ This is the time of passionate love and embrace...♥ The tone differs hour by hour, and in the afternoon, when the tone that flows out flares up passion for art, artists often come here to paint.
However, unfortunately... it isn’t kissing time for another hour...♥ Come now, don’t hold back♥ Neither of us can put up with it anymore♥ Spread out your arms, and come to my chest...♥

When I’m with you, dear sir, I become more and more unable to control myself...
This is “Art Street”, the main street leading towards Nevia Theatre, where you can find paintings, music, sculptures, literary novels, and all kinds of shops dedicated to the arts. Works of art are on display everywhere, and you can experience all kinds of beauty just from walking down this street... It’s as if the whole city of Nevia were an art museum comparable to the famed Mamono Lord’s Art Museum♪
That store over there, with one of its walls depicting the image of a Mermaid and a gentleman living at the bottom of the sea, is a store that sells paintings, but if lovers or a married couple visit, they can express their love on campus♥ I wonder if that’s what the couple that just went in intends to do♥
In Nevia, it’s popular for the love of a couple to persist in the form of art. It’s true that it’s best to exchange love directly, but having any amount of excess love to express or leave behind as art is also a wonderful thing♥ Nevian women are greedy for love and beauty♥
Among all of these shops, I would like to recommend this one, the sculpture atelier “Nudie Moldie”. It’s a store run by a former Song Maiden senior of mine... a Satyros from the Lustre Group, and as the name implies, it is a sculpture store, however, it doesn’t just sell them, it’s a rather peculiar store.
Ufufu, the sight of nude sculptures of monsters displayed all over the store’s interior, it’s quite bewitching...♥ All of these were carved by the Satyros shopkeeper, who is an excellent sculptor, and depict the figures of the monster commissioners. These numerous beautiful statues express the charm of a monster’s lewd body so much that gentlemen make a dumbfounded face like you are now, but that is not their true power. I also have a statue I had sculpted to commemorate my becoming a Song Maiden. Let’s head to the shop’s central courtyard♪
Lewd Maidens playing in a beautiful garden, appearing just like a debaucherous feast in a land of mist...♥ And here is my statue. Please look at it very closely♪
...What do you think? My immodest appearance...♥ Ufu♥ Fufufu♥ Aah, your breath’s rough like a beast’s...♥ And your eyes have become bloodshot, how wonderful...♥
This nude statue was made by removing not only my clothes, but also all the hindrances I wear, leaving behind only the fact that I am a female monster... Only the pure power of my charm as a woman, a bewitching monster that seduces men, has been carved into this stone. It is, so to speak, another me. A me that only wants to flirt with a gentleman, tempt him, and become an outlet for his passion♥
Ufufu♥ It seems you didn’t hear me... I’m a little jealous♥ Please look at the real me too♥
Yes, what you felt in your heart when looking at this indecent sculpture is the same feeling as when you saw the real me... Now when you look at me, you see what was burned into your eyes by this nude statue... You can see the charming body underneath my clothes, and the lascivious female nature underneath the thin skin called “me”♥
Aah, the ragged breath of a beast excited for your female♥ This bloodshot gaze♥ You’ve become unbearably swollen, looking so, so delicious... And all of this is directed towards the real me...♥
Ufufufu♥ With these statues, monster women appeal all of their charm to a specific gentleman, or place it in a spot that catches people’s eyes, welcoming the gentleman that gets most excited by it as their companion...♥ Devoted husbands also often want statues made of their wives♥
Now then, let’s get going♥ Nevia Theatre is coming up soon...♥ A little more, just a little more... It will further raise the flames of passion dwelling in our hearts...♥

Come, hold my hand tightly...♥ Please nestle closer to me...♥
We’ve finally arrived to the honorably named “Nevia Theatre”! It’s the rose-colored opera theater from that well-known tale. Said to be where once dead roses were revived as Nevian Roses by the song of Christine, the first Diva and Troupe Leader Nevi’s wife, the stunning Nevia Theatre stands among these beautifully resurrected roses! It will surely give you a wonderful time!
The central stage surrounded by beautiful water full of floating roses... In addition to the first-floor seating surrounding it, there is also sometimes a viewing boat that gets closer to the stage, letting you enjoy the ambiance of Mermaids swimming and dancing before your eyes.
The programs at Nevia Theatre include the performances of various operas concerning the seven islands, for example, the story of “The Great Pirate of Matori”... There is a scene during the play where Mermaids play the role of pirates and kidnap men, but in some cases, the gentlemen watching from the boat may also get kidnapped themselves♥ Ufufu♥
There is second and third floor seating on the upper floors, and the seats with a thin curtain around them are semi-private rooms with something like a bed and just enough room for two people to snuggle up, and is seating meant for lovers or married couples. That curtain is a curtain of water with magic that allows you to see the stage unobstructed as if viewing it through clear water from the inside, but you can’t see what is going on from outside the curtain. Even if we were to be struck by the passion of the stage, fondling each other’s bodies and exchanging kisses...♥ Even if the flames of passion ignite, and we have sex according to our urges, you wouldn’t be able to tell from the outside♥
This time, Lady Eustine will be taking the stage as the leading role in a big public performance. Normally, walk-ins like you aren’t allowed to take a seat, but I have already prepared you a seat♥ In truth, I would have liked to join your side in the upper floor seating, but I have a role to play on stage.
Ufufu♥ Actually, did you know I’m a popular actress in the Blossom Group, and often have the privilege of performing with Lady Eustine? This time, please by all means sit on the first floor and witness me on stage♥ If you do, I am sure you will be pleased with the good fortune I will bring you...♥
Nevia Theatre History Museum (p83)
Ufufufu♥ How was I on stage? I take pride in being able to become like a completely different person than the one you’ve seen so far♥ However, now that you’ve seen that statue with your own eyes, I wonder how I looked to you...♥ My♥ Don’t be impatient♥ I know you can’t wait♥ After all, I feel the same♥
Teehee...♥ Before the excitement dies down, at least allow me to introduce the “Nevia Theatre History Museum”♥
The performance you witnessed today was “Another Mermaid Princess”. This is a place where you can experience the history of Nevia and Nevia Theatre, which are the basis of that performance, while the excitement of the stage still lingers.
In addition to the actual props that appear in plays, there are items on display here that make you feel the beauty of old Nevia, such as old works of art from that time, clothing, elaborate models based on Nevia Theatre before it was renovated, sculptures of various Divas, the stone tablet with the original song of passion written on it given to the first Diva by The Great Songstress, and so on.
Ara? You’re rather silent, are you alright? Could it be... Are you jealous of Lady Eustine, who was playing the role of a man on stage? Ufufufu♥ I’ve wanted to show you something... Fufu, let’s head into that room♥
____________________________________________________________
Have you woken up? Ufufu... You’re wondering where we are? This is the history museum. You were just in the old Nevia Theatre?
Ufufufufu♥ Yes, this tiny little room, which appears at first glance to only have a desk and two chairs, allows you to become the main character of “Another Mermaid Princess” and “relive” history. I don’t know the details, but it seems through the complex magic and incense of Succubi and Nightmares, you can be shown such “dreams”... Of course, we both experienced the same history and witnessed the same dream♥
In the final scene, the Mermaid Princess, played by me, sees the unmasked viscount’s true face for the first time, and kisses him. How does the me on stage compare to the me in the dream? Which one had an expression of incredible lust towards her gentleman, like I do now...♥

As you would expect, the “Souvenir Room” is last♥ In a city with an aesthetic atmosphere like this, “Souvenir Room” sounds rather cute, doesn’t it♪
Ara, is this something you don’t recognize? It’s called a “Nevian Mask”, like the one you were wearing earlier, and that Viscount Nevi used to hide his face. By the way, in Nevia, there is a festival held every year involving these masks called the “Nevian Carnival”, where men and women go around all day wearing masks and hiding their faces while spending time together.
Curiously, even though their faces are hidden, people become more “open” and bold because their faces can’t be seen, and even reserved, late-blooming gentlemen who normally have no confidence in their own beauty often call out to us monsters, and during the carnival, many new couples are formed. And then, the lovers and couples that have spent the whole day unable to see each other’s masked faces remove their masks at the end of the day, showing their faces to their partners... Can you guess what happens to us monsters when we can’t see our lover’s or husband’s face for a whole day?♥
Ah...♥ One can only imagine how lewdly disheveled Lady Christine’s heart and body became after seeing the Viscount’s face for the first time in not just a day, but many years♥ Incidentally, it seems the actual person these masks originate from is so embarrassed by the festival imitating him that he and his wife don’t come out of their bedroom for the whole day, so we don’t get to see their faces, even without masks, for the entire day♥
Here, allow me to tell you a story involving these masks and the festival. his is a tale of an unscrupulous man who attempted to abuse this festival. This man, who had only just arrived in Nevia, was a simple but kind, hard-working gentleman. However, something sad had happened to him in the past, and he looked down on and terribly hated all women. One year, on the eve of the festival, a mischievous thought suddenly occurred to the man, and he decided to use this mask to do something evil.
“I’ll take advantage of this day when women’s hearts are open, have sex with them, and at the end of the day, I’ll throw them away without removing my mask or revealing my true self.” He thought.
The man made a move on a single woman, and they spent the day together. The woman’s face was hidden, of course, but it was clear from her body and the outline of her face that this was a woman who could not hide her beauty. The man thought she must surely be a detestable woman who routinely used her good looks to get men to support her.
The man was friendly and honeymouthed, so the woman enjoyed the day immensely, allowing the man to crawl his hands along her body, and accepting his countless kisses. As the sun was setting, the man brought the woman to an inn for a one-night stand. However, the man vanished without having sex with the woman, leaving only a copper coin for the woman to stay at the inn.
The man imagined the woman’s face, which he had never seen, contorted with sorrow after his evil deed, and what would happen to the heartbroken woman afterwards. The image of “women” in his mind that he hated did not match with the “woman” he had just spent the day with, and what remaining conscience he had made him abandon his evil deed at the last moment.
As for me, I believe it’s completely unthinkable to steal her lips and then run away!... Well, anyway, some time passed after that. The man had a problem. The feeling of the woman’s body he had felt that day wouldn’t leave his hands, the sweet silence and melting feeling of her tongue when he had stolen a kiss wouldn’t leave his mouth. And every time he thought about it, his lower body grew hot, and no matter how many times he whipped it out to suppress that desire with his own hands, it never went away.
The man found himself wandering around the city like a zombie, searching for the woman he had spent that day with. Then he saw a woman who was looking for someone like he was. There was a woman whose face was just as beautiful as he had expected, but she looked at the man with obscenely sadistic eyes, and had a lascivious smile on her face, as if her true nature had surfaced. Nevertheless, it seems the man had never considered that the woman, whose mouth curled into a smile and sneeringly said “found you”, was not a human, but a monster.
Was this the first time you’ve heard that story? That’s understandable. After all, it isn’t particularly a tale that circulates around Nevia, rather it’s the beginning of my senior’s marriage. Ufufu♥ Her husband’s torment from the feeling that wouldn’t leave his fingertips, and the indelible pleasure of kissing. You’ve seen that statue, and seen me, so don’t you understand the feeling yourself?
Now then, as for your lodgings tonight... Let’s go to my estate, I shall accompany you to the very end♥ Ufufufufu♥
Ara, is this something you don’t recognize? It’s called a “Nevian Mask”, like the one you were wearing earlier, and that Viscount Nevi used to hide his face. By the way, in Nevia, there is a festival held every year involving these masks called the “Nevian Carnival”, where men and women go around all day wearing masks and hiding their faces while spending time together.
Curiously, even though their faces are hidden, people become more “open” and bold because their faces can’t be seen, and even reserved, late-blooming gentlemen who normally have no confidence in their own beauty often call out to us monsters, and during the carnival, many new couples are formed. And then, the lovers and couples that have spent the whole day unable to see each other’s masked faces remove their masks at the end of the day, showing their faces to their partners... Can you guess what happens to us monsters when we can’t see our lover’s or husband’s face for a whole day?♥
Ah...♥ One can only imagine how lewdly disheveled Lady Christine’s heart and body became after seeing the Viscount’s face for the first time in not just a day, but many years♥ Incidentally, it seems the actual person these masks originate from is so embarrassed by the festival imitating him that he and his wife don’t come out of their bedroom for the whole day, so we don’t get to see their faces, even without masks, for the entire day♥
Here, allow me to tell you a story involving these masks and the festival. his is a tale of an unscrupulous man who attempted to abuse this festival. This man, who had only just arrived in Nevia, was a simple but kind, hard-working gentleman. However, something sad had happened to him in the past, and he looked down on and terribly hated all women. One year, on the eve of the festival, a mischievous thought suddenly occurred to the man, and he decided to use this mask to do something evil.
“I’ll take advantage of this day when women’s hearts are open, have sex with them, and at the end of the day, I’ll throw them away without removing my mask or revealing my true self.” He thought.
The man made a move on a single woman, and they spent the day together. The woman’s face was hidden, of course, but it was clear from her body and the outline of her face that this was a woman who could not hide her beauty. The man thought she must surely be a detestable woman who routinely used her good looks to get men to support her.
The man was friendly and honeymouthed, so the woman enjoyed the day immensely, allowing the man to crawl his hands along her body, and accepting his countless kisses. As the sun was setting, the man brought the woman to an inn for a one-night stand. However, the man vanished without having sex with the woman, leaving only a copper coin for the woman to stay at the inn.
The man imagined the woman’s face, which he had never seen, contorted with sorrow after his evil deed, and what would happen to the heartbroken woman afterwards. The image of “women” in his mind that he hated did not match with the “woman” he had just spent the day with, and what remaining conscience he had made him abandon his evil deed at the last moment.
As for me, I believe it’s completely unthinkable to steal her lips and then run away!... Well, anyway, some time passed after that. The man had a problem. The feeling of the woman’s body he had felt that day wouldn’t leave his hands, the sweet silence and melting feeling of her tongue when he had stolen a kiss wouldn’t leave his mouth. And every time he thought about it, his lower body grew hot, and no matter how many times he whipped it out to suppress that desire with his own hands, it never went away.
The man found himself wandering around the city like a zombie, searching for the woman he had spent that day with. Then he saw a woman who was looking for someone like he was. There was a woman whose face was just as beautiful as he had expected, but she looked at the man with obscenely sadistic eyes, and had a lascivious smile on her face, as if her true nature had surfaced. Nevertheless, it seems the man had never considered that the woman, whose mouth curled into a smile and sneeringly said “found you”, was not a human, but a monster.
Was this the first time you’ve heard that story? That’s understandable. After all, it isn’t particularly a tale that circulates around Nevia, rather it’s the beginning of my senior’s marriage. Ufufu♥ Her husband’s torment from the feeling that wouldn’t leave his fingertips, and the indelible pleasure of kissing. You’ve seen that statue, and seen me, so don’t you understand the feeling yourself?
Now then, as for your lodgings tonight... Let’s go to my estate, I shall accompany you to the very end♥ Ufufufufu♥

Ah, dear sir, it may be difficult to reach my residence at night...
There are many “paths” in the city of Nevia. Paths with beautiful roses that are like hidden getaways, paths to little ateliers, in Nevia, visiting such paths is one of the standard dating plans, but out of all of them, the “Night Painting Path”, which only appears late at night, is considered especially dangerous.
In the darkness of night, there are countless canvases clearly illuminated, despite there being no light around them. There’s no mistaking it, we’re at the “Night Painting Path”. Please look down and don’t look at the paintings on the canvases, just move forward. From now on, even if we turn around and head back, we can’t get out of here.
This path is a place a Dark Mage artist known as “The Painting Witch” decorates with her paintings, and lures in new subjects using her magic... Sir? You suddenly stopped, is something wrong?
Aah... Aah... The road in front of us is blocked by canvases... And on each one is a painting of men and women playing with each other’s bodies... Iya♥ Dear sir♥ Crawl your hand along those places too...♥ Yes, that’s right. Since “everybody else” is also playing with each other’s bodies, we should do the same♥ This isn’t enough. We need to entwine our fingers more, like everyone around us...♥ Aan♥ That’s it♥ Flick the tip of my breast just like that... Rub my ass lewdly...♥
Haa...♥ Do you know what it takes to become a great Song Maiden, or even a Diva? You must have “flames of passion” within you that are recognized by The Great Songstress♥ Starting with the first Diva, Christine, all Divas have husbands, beloved gentlemen they have passionately burning love for♥ The first Diva demonstrated that the moment the viscount removed his mask. That is unmistakably the condition for becoming Diva...♥ That’s why everyone has praised Lady Eustine as a genius for becoming a Diva without a husband.
But that’s not correct. She didn’t become Diva because she was a genius... However, she knew that...♥ Such a person, who can feel other people’s stories and destinations as if they were her own, knows exactly what happens when we monsters obtain a husband...♥
Dear sir...♥ It looks like we’ve arrived somewhere else without realizing it♥ This is...on all of these canvases... Aah, Aah...♥ “All around us”, men are ravishing women with beast-like, bloodshot eyes, just like yours♥ All of the women look so very, very happy~...♥ Iyaan♥
Aah♥ A head full of the one you love, a heart throbbing and pounding when your beloved is in front of you, a womb that heats up and begs to have a child just from thinking about the one you love...♥ Understanding that all of these sensations are connected and the same is the truth for us monsters, to whom love and sexual desire are inseparable...♥ It seems Lady Eustine arrived to that conclusion before she could understand it first hand, as I have...♥
Haa♥ I hear the sound of frenzied brush strokes from somewhere... It must be that witch portraying our fooling around...♥ Before I knew it, the Anthropomorphosis Spell broke...♥ My mermaid tail could no longer resist you...♥
Ufu, fufu♥ Stories often say you must either give up your love for a gentleman or your dreams. If you don’t give up one, you cannot seize the other. There are stories like that, but...♥ Haa♥ This isn’t one of them♥ My whole life so far, being born in Nevia, my efforts on the stage, all of these have been paths leading me here and now...♥♥ And these are the feelings of a shameful female who would rather be held and pierced by you, dear sir, than sing or dream of becoming the Diva♥ This is also a necessary path...♥
Ufufu♥ I am a greedy Nevian woman...♥ I am going to become the Diva♥ So please, ravish me to exhaustion... My dear husband♥♥♥
