Otakus Enjoy Being Treated Like Pigs

After collapsing from eating raw pig liver, I've been reincarnated as a pig in Mesteria, a world run by swords and magic. The beautiful girl who saved me worked as a servant and was a member of the Yethma, a race of girls with the ability to read minds. Despite being able to hear all of the lustful fantasies of this ex-dirty, scrawny, four-eyed virgin, Jess always responded with a soft smile. Hold on, why is this girl being so nice to me...!?

Nearly All Handsome Guys Are Scumbags

Jess and I met a young Yethma named Ceres in a town we stopped by amidst our travels. Upon Jess's request, she guided us to the site of a monastery that burned down five years ago.

Keep Rewards for When They Really Count
