Shiro Buta Kizoku desu ga Zense no Kioku ga Haeta node Hiyoko na Otōto Sodatemasu (“I’m a White Pig Noble, but I’ve Gained Memories of My Past Life, So I’ll Raise My Chick-Like Younger Brother”)
But as Luciel begins to smile and speak more, their parents grow suspicious. The engagement to a cruel noble girl looms. And someone from Regulus’s original “bad future” timeline seems to have noticed the changes…
Waking up at age 7, Regulus is horrified at the monster he was destined to become. More urgently, he finds his 4-year-old brother —a frail, silent boy nicknamed “Hiyoko” (chick) by servants for his yellow hair and trembling demeanor—locked in a dark storage room, bruised and forgotten by their cold noble parents.
