Chapter 8 is really exciting!

- U bully me.. I'll forgive you..

- Point me as a traitor and throw tr*sh and stones at me... I'll save your kingdom..

what I'm truly frustrated it that the author is seriously dragging the relation between Leon and Angie and Livia. And using them as Yuri Fanservice is somewhat disappointing. At this point, the moments between Marie and Leon are more interesting in the Maria route side stories

The MC is the second son of the first wife of the Baron. Since the father remarried to someone higher in the nobel hierarchy the son is being suppressed. The social standing of Women and Men is supposed to be reversed in this world with woman having multiple male lovers and so on.

Now it might just be me, but in our society there is no polygamist relationship where the men has multiple wives and would allow one of his wifes to stay married to her previous husband. If nobel men can't find a wife if they are over 20 years old, how did the MC's father find a second wife when he was clearly over 20? If woman are in dominant position in this society, why is the man the nobel? Shouldn't it be the woman? Shouldn't all the woman be the only ones in line to inherit a title? Why would the matriarch of the family spend money on a son (the father) who was sold to another woman? Shouldn't he be living with her and the woman of the barony be taking over?

As I stated the basis of the plot is a huge plot hole.

1) This route has a massive stake at hand. The threat keeps stalking you from your blind spot, and does actual harm to the MC and all other characters. It gives you creeping fear and anxiety, like something crawling under your skin. The world doesn't feel 'safe' like your typical story.

2) The MC doesn't act like an impulsive edgy kid (at least most of the time), he takes a more passive and sometimes mature approach to the situation. He needs a very strong reason to fight or get serious, and don't throw his hands mindlessly, not jumping into the fire, not acting like he's strong even though all his power came from cheats.

He takes action and make deals mostly behind the scenes. The only time he was angrily impulsive was when his opponent doesn't fulfill their mutual agreement (read: dirty deal behind the scene), which is understandable, since the deal will change the plot massively onwards.

3) There are real repercussion for every wrong action/inaction that he took. He actually suffers the consequences whenever he is indecisive, careless, acts immaturely, don't take things seriously, and too relaxed.

And someone will dearly pay the price, it could be the MC or other characters, the world around them, and even characters from the sequel, which is outside the timeline of the game plot.

4) The characters don't mindlessly revolve around the MC, they have their own personal objective and ambition which they keep pursuing even behind the scene, regardless of the MC.

They don't serve as the stepping stone of the MC, instead they try to use everything including the MC as their stepping stone. In short, the characters are more fleshed out and they actually feel alive instead of being a lifeless trope/plot progression device.

5) The other countries from the sequel of the game exists and is running behind the scene, even when they're not the main focus (in the main story they only suddenly exist when their tineline starts and MC decides focus his attention on them, and only then the plot can progress).

And man, they're actually affecting the world around them so much, and ultimately the MC as well. Even when technically he's still outside the timeline of the game sequel, and the sequel hasn't started yet so it supposedly shouldn't affect him... right? (nope lol).

6) Some things that are unexplained in the main story, gets properly explained very in-depth in Marie Route. I won't say much, but you can see the other side of the characters that they haven't shown in the main story here in Marie Route.

when the game change into the second installment... and he got trapped/pushed into engagement and got to babysit the power ranger squad... and so on and so on...i come to like the sister better. I got to applaud author to be able to write her interestingly. at least that one is a good one. she is still somewhat a disappointment but she is good. while MC has become someone you want to punch to a blackhole.
