  One shots aren’t really encouraged by the royal road algorithm, so I did this to give this one a boost.
  Unlike a bunch of other stories, you don’t have to read 50k words to decide whether you like this or not. It’s short and enjoyable. It’s not a masterpiece or anything, but that’s really hard to do with this few words, so I don’t think that’s what anyone was expecting.

  i dont read a lot of short stories but this one is super funny, its a twist in the story of where the hero has to go slay the demon king with little to no support besides his party or alone, this hero however pretends to be a woman cause he dosent want to risk his life, so he becomes the holy maiden.

  An uplifting tale from a different perspective than the typical isekai. Any other description would ruin the magic. Just read it.
  Recommended for everyone - take 5 min and read it.

  A short story about the (male) MC getting isekai-ed into the [Mistress of Light] in a fantasy world. It's inspired by anime, short, sweet, and really funny. Might just be one of the funniest works I've seen on Royalroad, and that's saying something.
  Style score: first person present tense. We're immediately thrust into the MC's mind, which makes it easier to keep track of his thoughts and feelings, where around 50% of the jokes lie. 5/5
  Story score: even for a one-chapter short story oneshot, there is a complete plot, with a clear beginning and a climax. This alone is impressive. There's also twists, and all in all the world feels real, and the story is well executed. 5/5
  Grammar score: I didn't find any mistakes whatsoever, the writing is competant. It feels a bit like a light novel, and uses anime tropes to great comedic effect! 5/5
  Character score: I love the MC, and could definitely emphatize with him right away, his personality is shown in a great way. He's also pretty funny, and also naive. Very entertaining. The other characters aren't too important, but we got a feel for each one. 4.5/5
  Too conclude, this is definitely worth the five minutes it takes to read through, and is likely to give you a few chuckles. Very entertaining! It doesn't take itself very seriously, and this only serves to make it more charming.

  I've seen this pop up on my feed a few times and the artwork and the premise was tempting. I got to say, this was quite a lot of fun - even if some of it was a bit crude in places. This story is great though, and this is well worth the read because it is funny.

  I had a good laugh.
  It's a simple, short story, about a hero (man) who looks like a girl, choosing the safe path of holy maiden, became the inspirations for many (three actually) young heroes to defeat the Demon King.
  Is it a masterpiece? Compared to many novels out there.... ofc it's not. There are still many spaces for improvements.
  Is it enjoyable? Damn yeah why the hell do you think I even bothered to write a review? I rarely wrote one and I felt the need to write it for this novel.
  Keep up the good work and keep improving, author. I'm rooting for you!!

  Anyone have recommendations similar to this story? I really enjoyed the premise and want more. Most characters were one dimensional, but a smaller focus can make for a better story.
  A bunch of dudes, marriage, cute crossdressing, and harem with a twist was the original premise the author used.
