Costas Orsi.... more>>

Son of a naval admiral.

The heir to the marquisate seems to like me.

I don’t know why he likes me, a simple civil servant, but his attention is too much for me.

So I quit my job and went south to live a quiet life. …….

“……W-what a coincidence, Bibi.”

It’s too much of a coincidence that we met in a secluded cafe in a rural town in the south, far from the capital.

*.

“Why do you keep running away, did I do something wrong?”

No matter what the situation, he was always gracious.

A man who never rushed into action, even when the situation was urgent…….

“……I’m sorry.”

“For what?”

Costas pursed his lips nervously as I hung my head.

“There’s something ……I really want to tell you.”

Oh, no.

“Why I’ve been chasing you. I’m more sincere than you know, Bibi, and I want to…”

“My Lord!”

I hastily interrupted him.

Costas turned to me, his eyes wide with tears.

“Please, please.”

“…….”

“Please don’t propose to me. Please… …….”

Costas’ expression broke down completely. <<less

In the year 1989, the Japanese government passed the Media Betterment Act, allowing a group of soldiers known as the Media Betterment Committee (MBC) to destroy and censor any "problematic" media under the guise of protecting public morals. As a response, regional governments established the Library Defense Force (LDF), whose members take up arms and put their lives on the line to protect freedom of expression. At the top of the Kanto branch of the LDF stands the Library Task Force (LTF): an elite squad consisting of only the most exceptional fighters.... more>>

As a high schooler, Iku Kasahara experienced the terror of censorship first-hand when she refused to surrender the newest volume of her favorite series to MBC agents. She only came out unscathed thanks to a lone member of the LDF, who protected her and her beloved book. Now in her 20s and still unable to forget the man who saved her, Kasahara joins the LDF in the hope of becoming just like her prince.

But LDF training turns out to be far more rigorous than she could have imagined, and her instructor, LTF member Atsushi Doujou, seems fixated on making her life a living hell.

As Kasahara does all she can to become worthy of the LTF and unravel her enigmatic superior's motivations, she wages war—both on the battlefield and in her personal life.

Souta Shimizu is publicly acknowledged as an extrovert after his high school debut.

His topics with his friends are mostly learned on his phone. The content in there is interesting and exciting. There is so much you can enjoy without lifting an arm.

Kisaragi, who is now in the same class as me, seems to be able to “hear the thoughts of others”.

There was a huge difference between “hearing” and “reading” the thoughts of others, and she was tired of being able to hear everyone’s thoughts, regardless of whether she wanted to or not.

Well, of course I felt pity for her, but there wasn’t anything I could do about it.

That was what I thought, but…

Somehow, it looks like when she’s beside me, her power is only limited to my thoughts, and she can get some peace and quiet.

But even so, aren’t you a little too close to me?!

No, it’s not like I’m getting nervous just because there’s a beautiful girl right beside me or anything like that!

——That’s right. Today, my thoughts are once again being read by her. <<less
