“You look down.  Weren’t we both accepted by the same Magical Research Institute?”
“No, it’s not like that.  I’m very happy.”

Thus, I completed the graduation examinations with my own power and without difficulty.  Then I attended the graduation ceremony.

I had always been good at studying, and my problem of insufficient magic power had also been solved.  The bullying from my elder sister and family had also been solved, and I even gained a wonderful lover… candidate, someone who escorts me to events like this.

There was no longer anything for Cecily Travasta to fear.

Thanks to her, I truly obtained everything.

My situation was an extremely fortuitous one, I was at the beginning to the restart of my life.

And yet… there was a gaping hole in my heart…

“Liar.”

Because she lied.

Because of what she said.

“I promise to return your body to you in one year from now, along with the best possible circumstances you could have.  I suppose a wonderful lover and friends are essential?  Naturally, I suppose a kind family and abundant wealth might also be necessary?”

What a massive liar.  Isn’t this falling short of perfect?

…My precious friend, she isn’t here, is she?

By some twist of fate, Cecily Travasta was asked to give the opening address for the graduation ceremony.  That liar went and casually accepted a request to stand on such a grand stage.

What am I supposed to do?  The one everyone wants to see isn’t me.  Yet before I realized it, the popular student in class… No, within the entire academy, was Nora Noz.  The one who had possessed my body.  How am I supposed to clean that up?

Thus, my presence was announced and I stomped my way toward the stage.

It happened when, in my frustration, I shouted into the magic microphone.

“Nora, you idioooooot!”

A sharp burst of distorted audio echoed throughout the hall.  Almost everyone was covering their ears and I was breathing roughly… It caught my eye.

Beside the beautiful young man whose name I cannot say, whose beauty stands out even from afar, is a beautiful young girl standing more arrogantly than anyone else. She looked straight at me and silently moved her mouth.

My final winter of youth is about to end.

Who this beautiful girl is.  Why she is in this place.  What she said.  What I did after this.

That probably isn’t a story to be told here.

For the “Notorious Wicked Woman of the Era,” Nora Noz, taught me that the miraculous power called magic is born from the imagination of living humans.

If I were to say only the bare minimum… Perhaps a title does not betray the ending?

“Possessed by a wicked woman from 800 years ago, this me who is absolutely at the bottom of the barrel, will in one year start anew with perfect and happy life! — The End”
