“Lady…”
Unable to find the words to continue, Mira looks into the mirror at me, brushing my platinum blonde hair with a white boar bristle brush, occasionally glancing at me with concern. I’m trying not to worry everyone, but I can’t help feeling down.
“I’m sorry, Mira, for worrying you. Am I causing any trouble?”
“No, not at all. I never doubted you or anyone else. Those who are spreading baseless rumours should be the ones to be accused of disrespect and dealt with.”
Mira, who usually has calm, navy-blue eyes, is now angry. I can’t help but smile wryly at her radical words.
“There’s no evidence to explain the situation. It’s true that I accidentally added an aphrodisiac plant to the magic potion, and it’s said that I used a magic circle to summon the succubus from the room she couldn’t leave, but how can we prove the magic?”
I collected the ingredients for the magic potion, and even though Sevigny and Axel confirmed the procedure while I was making it, I made it myself.
Patrick chose the magic circle, and the red magic stone that fell from Luna’s hand was just a stone with the effect of transmitting magic.
Summoning a succubus requires handling black magic, which seems to be something only advanced magicians can do. Even though each leaves a mystery, thinking about magic that can’t retain a form is like beating around the bush.
“That’s true… Magic is like smoke or scent that disappears as soon as it’s emitted.”
“That’s right… The students in the academy indeed saw a situation that led to misunderstandings. I can’t prove that I had no motive for infidelity.”
I wonder if there are lie detectors in this world. No, probably not. If lie detectors could solve problems, all wrongful convictions on Earth would have been eliminated.
“Lady, do you really not intend to go to the academy anymore? Does Prince Zinon feel the same way? Doesn’t that seem like admitting to the rumours? But then again, it might be better not to go if it feels like walking on pins and needles…”
I smile at Mira, who worries about me. I’m really sorry.
“Zinon said that if I don’t want to go, I can quit, and of course, he will quit, too. He said that he never thought he needed to stay long or graduate… So, we’ve decided to take a break from school for now.”
I want to avoid anything happening that would worsen everyone’s situation.
After the incident with the succubus the other day, even Zinon and Patrick have been looked at with suspicion.
What’s even worse is that the incident in the laboratory with Axel has gained credibility, and now, three of the targets of the maiden game have been involved in Richeli’s promiscuous behaviour.
What a mess.
I sigh.
If I’ve been this unfaithful, wouldn’t it be reasonable for Zinon to send me to the convent immediately?
Zinon doesn’t doubt me or show signs of breaking off the engagement.
Shouldn’t I have already reached a bad ending in the otome game if I think about it? Why not?
As I think about it, I wonder. Maybe because Luna Maria hasn’t bonded with anyone yet?
I regret not playing Magic Eyes in my previous life.
I try to remember the commentary of Kokoro and Yukine as much as possible.
Magic Eyes, the heroine is Luna Maria.
A pure and lovely baron’s daughter. Hm, did they say the baron’s family had fallen into ruin? Hmm, I don’t know about this. Anyway.
The heroine, Luna Maria, enters the magic school and meets the target characters one after another.
There are five targets: Zinon, Axel, Patrick, Christopher, and Luciano.
Once you choose one of them as the target, proceed to each route’s scenario and start the mission.
You clear each event, fall in love with the hero… wait a minute.
Isn’t the game not progressing because Luna Maria hasn’t chosen a target yet?
However, my promiscuous behaviour is progressing according to the scenario.
What does that mean?
I don’t think Luna Maria is falling in love with any targets.
Regarding the incident with Axel in the laboratory, she didn’t seem to be particularly hurt as a woman.
During the succubus incident, she said she had been feeling ill and had collapsed, resting in the dormitory. She was very worried about Zinon, Patrick, and me but did not swallow the malicious rumours. I thought she would eventually develop a romance with someone, but perhaps I’m preventing Luna Maria from falling in love because I’m not the real Richeli. Hmm, I’m not sure anymore. What will happen if things continue like this?
Going to the academy might trigger promiscuous events with the remaining targets, Christopher, and Luciano, just like before. If that happens, Richeli will truly be a villainess who has committed promiscuous acts with all the target characters, and Zinon will surely send me to the convent this time.
At worst, I might be fine with that. From the beginning, I was somewhat prepared for the bad ending of going to the convent. Hmm. But no matter how I look at it, the game’s progress is strange. Even though the heroine, Luna Maria, is the protagonist, at this speed, my promiscuous events will be complete before Luna falls in love with anyone, won’t they? Am I really obstructing Luna’s love? Or.
–Has Luna already fallen in love, chosen a target character, and is progressing in the scenario–?
