I have no intention of becoming a man!
About
Aria is a beautiful, highly-skilled alchemist renowned throughout the town. However, her true identity is that of a former young lady of a ducal house—and furthermore, she is actually a man. Due to family circumstances, his biological sex was hidden from birth; he was announced to the world as a girl and raised as one. As a result, Aria's heart is completely that of a woman. By the time the need to hide being male vanished, it was already impossible to go back to being a man. Because Aria was never educated on the differences between genders, even when it was explained later that she was male, she couldn't truly feel it. Thinking, "Even if my body is male, I am a woman," she lived as a cloistered noble lady until adulthood without a care. Eventually, deciding she couldn't be a burden to her family, she renounced her status and moved to the city to live independently, making a living through the alchemy she had studied. Aria secretly spends her days conducting research and experiments to develop a gender-reassignment potion through alchemy, occasionally heading out on adventures in search of materials. However, despite her plans to live quietly as an alchemist, a succession of undercover princes, nobles, knights, and adventurers have had their hearts stolen by the oblivious Aria, completely unaware that she is a man. Will the potion be completed first, or will her secret be exposed? Or perhaps a lover (male? female?) will appear who accepts her regardless of her being a cross-dresser...

Intro
Aria's atelier was bustling again this morning. First thing in the day, messengers from the town doctor and various adventurers swarmed in to buy up the potions Aria had brewed. Single men on their way to work stopped by to pick up handmade lunch boxes prepared by Aria and Anna. A patrolling guard popped his head in to confirm everything was in order before moving on. Once the morning rush settled down, Aria finished crafting a full set of new stock and then immersed herself in her research. And so, another ordinary(?) day begins.
