Don’t Interrupt the Villain’s Exit

“Criminal Isaac Liam Drake, obey the command of His Majesty the Emperor!”

At long last, Isaac has played out his role as the villain, just as the scenario dictated.

Using a pre-arranged corpse to fake his death, he plans to escape the imperial palace and live out his golden years peacefully in a foreign land.

But suddenly, the story starts to go awry.

“To preserve the Duke Drake lineage, the former Duke Drake will marry Grand Duke Eukrencia.”

“…What?”

Luinael Vernon Eukrencia? The protagonist’s younger brother?

They want him to marry a boy who’s just barely come of age?

As Isaac reels in disbelief, a strikingly handsome man approaches him.

“Please marry me, Isaac.”

“…Pardon?”

“I’ve been in love with you for a long time.”

“…?”

The realization that this is a side story not even mentioned in the original work hits him like a bolt of lightning.

And to top it all off, the long-absent status window suddenly appears.

[A new genre has been unlocked.

New genre: BL]

“A BL protagonist… Are you kidding me?”

Isaac, a dyed-in-the-wool heterosexual, tries to reject the absurdity, but the scenario forces him to accept his fate.

To escape the story, he must accumulate enough BL points to become the protagonist.

But to do that, he has to do… those kinds of things… with another man.

“Is this… even possible?”

Yet, as he gazes at the breathtakingly beautiful Luinael, Isaac unconsciously nods his head.
