TORTURE ME.

WHY DON’T
YOU JUST TELL
ME TO LIVE ON
THE STREETS,
HUH?

THEY SHOULD
JUST WORRY ABOUT
THE ONGOING INHERI-
TANCE PROCESS...
 Ah~
Whatever!

LIVING IN THAT

WAS SO PAINFUL.

WHETHER IT WAS
AT HOME OR SCHOOL,
MY HALF-BROTHERS
WOULD ENDLESSLY
TORTURE Me.

 HEY, DID
YOU GUYS BEAT
THE GAME?

I’M ON
HARD MODE, AND
THEIR FAVORABILITY
SERIOUSLY WON'T
GO UP.

1S IT EVEN
POSSIBLE
TO WIN?

IT’S PROBABLY
PAY-TO-WIN.

WHAT ARE
THEY TALKING
ABOUT?

op y

IT’S THAT
GAME THAT'S
BEEN TRENDING
RECENTLY!

&

‘THE LADY'S
LOVE LOVE
PROJECT"...

IT LOOKS
SO CHILDISH...

HOW IS IT
TRENDING WITH A
TITLE LIKE THIS?

I’M NOT REALLY

INTERESTED... BUT
THIS IS ALL THEY TALK
ABOUT AT SCHOOL.

TLL JUST
SEE WHAT IT'S
ABOUT.

XonSAY
ko a Saas
rod
 LET'S SEE.
“THIS GAME HAS TWO
DIFFICULTIES, NORMAL
AND HARD MODE.”

HM,
I SHOULD DO
NORMAL MODE
FIRST.

AH, THIS MUST

BE THE OPENING

AN ORDINARY GIRL
ABOUT TO TURN IS
‘YVONNE,

SHE IS THE YOUNGEST

DAUGHTER OF THE DUCAL
HOUSE. SIX YEARS AGO, SHE
WAS SEPARATED FROM HER
FAMILY IN AN ACCIDENT.

AS SHE RETURNS TO
HER FORGOTTEN LIFE
IN THE DUCAL FAMILY
PETER LIVING AS A
COMMONER,

\ SHE BECOMES
\ SURROUNDED BY.

TARGET
THE MALE LEADS
AND RAISE THEIR
FAVORABILITY.

YOU CAN ALSO

EARN FAME AND WEALTH
BY GETTING RID OF THE
VILLAINESS WHO LIKES TO
INTERFERE WITH THE
HEROINE.

IF YOU REACH
100% FAVORABILITY
WITH ANY OF THE
MALE LEADS,

WILL RECEIVE A
CONFESSION OF
LOVE AND OBTAIN
AN ENDING...

WHAT
THE, THAT'S
SIMPLE.

ISN'T THIS PRETTY

GENERIC? ALTHOUGH
THE PRETTY ART IS
A PLUS.
Tick SINCE I HAVE CLASS
TOMORROW MORNING, I'LL
JUST PLAY THE PROLOGUE
AND GO TO SLEEP...

3 HOURS
LATER

I COULDN'T
aaa

This is more
fun than | thought!
The system is unique,
and it's really well
made.

AND...

SOMEHOW, IT
FEELS LIKE I’M
WATCHING MY
OWN STORY.
 THE HEROINE, WHO
HAD LOST HER STATUS
AND LIVED IN POVERTY,
RETURNED TO THE
DUCAL HOUSE.

I, WHO WAS
BROUGHT INTO A
WEALTHY FAMILY
ONE DAY BY MY
FATHER.

EVEN DOWN TO THE

TWO OLDER BROTHERS
WHO WERE WARY OF THE
SUDDEN APPEARANCE
A YOUNGER SISTER.

BUT THE DIFFERENCE

BETWEEN OUR SITUATIONS
ARE LIKE NIGHT AND DAy.

I CAN'T BELIEVE THE

BROTHERS ARE MALE LEADS
TOO. WELL, IT’S KIND OF FUN
TO TAME BRATS LIKE THESE.

ALL THE TARGET

CHARACTERS START
WITH 30% FAVORABILITY
IN NORMAL MODE.

IT’S FUN, BUT IT’S

TOO EASY, EVEN FOR A
BEGINNER LIKE Me.

THIS SHOULD
BE CALLED EASY
MODE INSTEAD OF
NORMAL MODE.

I ENDED UP FINISHING
ALL THE ENDINGS. IS THERE
ANYTHING ELSE TO DO...
 ‘YOU CAN NOW
PURCHASE THE GAME’S
HIDDEN ENDING.’

A-A HUNDRED
THOUSAND?!

WHY [5 IT SO
EXPENSIVE FOR JUST
AN ENDING?

1S THERE NO
OTHER WAY?!

RIGHT,
THERE WAS A
HARD MODE
TOO.

BUT I HAVE
TO CLEAR ALL OF
THOSE TOO...?

IT'S LATE ALREADY,

AND I HAVE CLASSES
TOMORROW...

AH, WHATEVER!
HOW HARD CAN HARD
MODE BE?
 ‘IN HINDSIGHT, T
MUST'VE GONE CRAZY
IND AT THE
IE FACT

ts ae
NEVER WOULD’VE DONE
SUCH A THING.

WOAH, THIS
IS COOL.

THE VILLAINESS IS
THE HEROINE NOW?

IN HARD MODE, THE

STORY WILL BE PLAYED FROM THE
PERSPECTIVE OF THE VILLAINESS,
<PENELOPE ECKART>.

A FAKE LADY, BROUGHT IN TO

REPLACE THE REAL DAUGHTER
WHO\WENT MISSING WHEN SHE:

BUT IF YOU LOOK AT

IT FROM HER PERSPEC-

DO MUCH WRONG.

WHY IS

TREATING HER
LIKE THIS?

JUST STAY

JUST ONCE.

MY INITIAL
GOAL WAS TO GET
THE HIDDEN ENDING,

SHE'S LIVED IN POVERTY

HOW SHE'S

PENELOPE’S PERSPECTIVE!
 THE CROWN PRINCE...
ALTHOUGH, COME TO THINK
OF IT, BESIDES THE BROTHERS,
ALL THE INFORMATION I HAVE
1S FROM NORMAL MODE.

IN NORMAL MODE, THE

TYRANT, WHO THINCS OF
PEOPLE'S LIVES AS FLIES
CHANGES AFTER MEETING
THE ANGELIC YVONNE,

AND WOULD OFTEN

SEVERELY PUNISH THE
VILLAINESS, PENELOPE.

YOU COULD SAY HE

WAS SERVING JUSTICE, BUT
FROM MY PERSPECTIVE IN
HARD MODE...

errs
from the Grim
Reaper

THIS BASTARD’S
THE ONE WHO KILLED
PENELOPE THE MOST
IN HARD MODE.

THANKS TO HIM, I HAD

TO KEEP RESETTING AND
NEVER MANAGED TO MAKE
MUCH PROGRESS.

LET'S NOT GO
ANYWHERE NEAR
THAT BASTARD.
 A WIZARD AND HEAD OF THE ——
BERDANDI MARQUESSATE, AN ODD
FELLOW WHO HIDES HIS STATUS TO
ACT AS A MERCENARY AND RUN ALL
SORTS OF DEALS, RANGING FROM
INFORMATION TO TRADES.

# YOU HAVE NOT

PROGRESSED FAR ENOUGH
IN VINTER’S ROUTE. PLEASE
MEET WITH VINTER MORE IN
PENELOPE’S PERSPECTIVE!

VINTER... HIS ROLE

IN NORMAL MODE WAS
TO PROVE YVONNE’S
TRUE IDENTITY.
 WITH HIS ABILITY TO GATHER
INFORMATION, HE PROTECTED
YVONNE EVERY TIME PENELOPE,
THE VILLAINESS, HAD SOMETHING
DANGEROUS PLANNED OUT.

HE ALSO HELPED
IN RAISING YVONNE’S
POPULARITY.

HE WAS A POLITE,
ROMANTIC, AND HELPFUL
CHARACTER TO YVONNE...

iT
WAS HE LIKE IN
HARD MODE?

I THINK I WAS TOO

BUSY GETTING MURDERED
BY THE BROTHERS AND THE
CROWN PRINCE TO EVEN
TOUCH HIS ROUTE.

I DON’T KNOW WHAT.

KIND OF CHARACTER HE IS
RIGHT NOW... BUT THERE'S
MORE HOPE FOR HIM THAN
THE OTHER THREE.

-AND THE
LAST ONE,
 A QUIET APPRENTICE KNIGHT
OF THE ECKART DUCHY. THOUGH
CURRENTLYA SLAVE, HE WAS ONCE A
NOBLE OF A NOW RUINED COUNTRY.
DUKE ECKART NOTICED HIS SWORDS-
MANSHIP AND PROMPTLY BROUGHT
HIM INTO THE DUCHY.

# YOU HAVE NOT PROGRESSED

FAR ENOUGH IN IKLIES’ ROUTE.
PLEASE MEET, WITH IKLIES MORE
IN PENELOPE'’S PERSPECTIVE!

OF THE MALE LEADS,

I CAN PROBABLY PUT
MY BET ON IKLIEs.

DUKE ECKART FINDS HIM

ONE NIGHT WHEN HE’S OUT AND
TAKES HIM IN AFTER PAYING A
HUGE SUM OF MONEY.

HE EVEN RECEIVES
THE TITLE OF SWORDMASTER
IN THE LATTER HALF OF NORMAL
MODE AND IS GIVEN A POSITION
OF NOBILITY.

HE WAS ALSO THE

ONLY TARGET CHARACTER
WHO PITIED THE VILLAINESS,
PENELOPE, UNTIL THE
VERY END.

PERHAPS IT WAS
BECAUSE HE HAD SERVED
HER FOR A WHILE, BUT HE WAS
THE MOST RELUCTANT TO FEND
OFF PENELOPE WHENEVER SHE
AND YVONNE CLASHED.
 ALTHOUGH I’VE
NEVER EVEN MET HIM
IN HARD MODE...

FOR NOW,
HE’S MY BEST BET
FOR SURVIVAL.

I BARELY HAVE
ANY INFORMATION SINCE
I WAS PREVENTED FROM
MAKING ANY PROGRESS
IN HARD MODE.

EVEN IF I KNEW
MORE, I’M NOT SURE
HOW MUCH OF THE GAME
WOULD STILL APPLY IN MY
CURRENT REALITY.

44-4 a

BUT THERE ARE

TWO THINGS I’M
SURE OF:

$= np

I CAN’TLET THE MALE

LEADS’ FAVORABILITY DROP
INTO THE NEGATIVES,

AND I MUST ACHIEVE AN

ENDING WITH ONE OF THEM
BY PENELOPE’S COMING OF
AGE CEREMONY.

1
 THE DAY THE REAL
HEROINE OF THE GAME
RETURNG...

THE STORY IN NORMAL

MODE BEGINS THE DAY
OF PENELOPE’S COMING OF
AGE CEREMONY, WHEN THE
DUKE’S REAL DAUGHTER,
YVONNE, RETURNS.

THAT MEANS THE TIME-

LINE OF HARD MODE TAKES
PLACE ALITTLE BEFORE
NORMAL MODE.

IF I DON’T

THEN, THE STORY WILL

AND THE MALE

LEADS WHO CARE FOR
YVONNE WILL TRY TO
EXTERMINATE ME.

THE FAKE LADY,

PENELOPE,
EVERYTHING THE DAY
SHE BECOMES AN ADULT
WITH THE RETURN OF
THE REAL LADY.

EVEN NOW, THE

DANGER OF A “GAME OVER”
SURROUNDS ME. THERE WILL
BE NO HOPE IF IT ACTUALLY
REACHES THAT POINT.

THE ONLY THING

WAITING FOR ME THEN
WILL BE DEATH BY THE
HANDS OF THE MALE

THAT’S RIGHT.

DID YOU ASK

THERE WAS
A COMMOTION
THIS MORNING.
1 IT’S NOT SOMETHING YOUR
GRACE SHOULD WORRY ABOUT.

I'M SURE YOU JUST WISH

THERE WAS A COMMOTION.

IT’S ALL BECAUSE OF THE DUMB MAID!

THE CHOICES ARE

QUITE... I MEAN, WHO
WOULD CARE FOR SUCH
A RUDE ADOPTED
DAUGHTER?

AND WHAT MADE

ME THINK THAT PICKING
OPTION TWO WAS A GOOD
CHOICE WHEN I WAS

IF BOTH PENELOPE’S

WERE SIMILAR TO HIS

I COULD’VE
EXPECTED SOME
MERCY FROM THE

I CAN’T CHOOSE

I HOPE THIS CHOICE
DOESN'T LEAD ME

IT'S NOT
SOMETHING YOUR

IT HAS

SIX YEARS SINCE
YOU'VE JOINED

6 YEARS?
THAT'S RIGHT. THE

I SAID SOMETHING

COME TO THINK
OF IT, THERE WAS A
REPUTATION SYSTEM IN

BUILDING RELATIONSHIPS
WITH THE PEOPLE AROUND
Me. WILL IT Be ALL
RIGHT?

WELL... IT’S NOT

LIKE T CAN AFFORD TO

HEY, WHAT

SERVING ME?
 WHAT?

DO YOU MEAN
EMILY?

HAS SHE
ALREADY BEEN
KICKED OUT?

NO, SHE
WASN'T KICKED
OUT, BUT...

THEN WHAT
IS SHE DOING
NOW?

FOR FAILING TO
SERVE YOU PROPERLY,
MY LADY, SHE RECEIVED
A THREE MONTH PAY CUT
AND |S NOW IN CHARGE
OF LAUNDRY.

WHY ARE
YOU MENTIONING
THAT CHILD...

AS EXPECTED
SHE SEEMS TO
KNOW WHAT'S
GOING ON.

JUST
TELL HER TO
CONTINUE BEING
MY PERSONAL
MAID.

Poe

IT’S INCONVENIENT
WITHOUT ANYONE SERVING
ME RIGHT NOW. EVEN IF WE
HIRE SOMEONE NEW, THEY’LL
DO POORLY UNTIL THEY
GET USED TO IT.

1
IT'LL BE
BETTER TO JUST
KEEP THE ORIGINAL
MAID IF IT’S GOING
TO BE LIKE THAT.
 IF YOU
UNDERSTAND,
SEND HER UP.
TLL LEAVE IT
TO YOU.

.-BUT THE
SECOND YOUNG
MASTER PERSONALLY
PUNISHED HER FOR WHAT
SHE DID TO YOU, MY

1 SAID IT’S
INCONVENIENT.
JUST SEND HER
UP ALREADY.

sIF THAT'S

THIS IN NORMAL
Move.

THEY LISTENED

HASEe AeTING

sn THERE'S
NO NEED.

TLL GO SEE
FATHER RIGHT
NOW MYSELF.

SINCE THINGS
ENDED UP LIKE THIS,
I’M GOING TO EXPLAIN
TO HIM WHAT HAPPENED
YESTERDAY

AND ASK HIM

TO FORGIVE EMILY.
THERE WON'T BE ANY
PROBLEMS THEN,
RIGHT?

LATER,

MAYBE EVEN
FOUR OR FIVE.

FROM NOW ON, I WILL

ACCEPT EVERYTHING YOU
DO TO ME, WITHOUT ANY
SUSPICION.

BATHING WATER,
CLOTHES, FOOD,
EVERYTHING.

BUT THE WOUNDS

ON MY HAND MIGHT
JUST INCREASE,

AND SOMEONE
JUST MIGHT NOTICE
AND THINK IT’S A BIT
STRANGE.

THEY'LL WONDER,
‘WHO DARES TO IMPERTI-
NENTLY ABUSE AND MOCK THE
ECKART FAMILY?” AND LOOK
FOR A CULPRIT. SOMEONE
LIKE... YES,

SOMEONE LIKE MY
BROTHER, REYNOLD.
 I’M SAYING
EVERYTHING WILL
DEPEND ON HOW
YOU ACT FROM
NOW ON.

YOU CAN
GET UP NOW.

YOUR MASTER
HAS FINISHED EATING.
YOU SHOULD DO YOUR
JOB NOW, RIGHT?

I GUESS SHE'S PRETTY

QUICK-WITTED. I COULD USE
HER IF I WANTED TO.

NOTHING MUCH
WILL CHANGE WITH
JUST A SINGLE MAID
ANYWAYS.

IF THAT'S THE
CASE, I MIGHT AS WELL
TURN HER INTO SOMEONE
T CAN USE.
 TLIKE THAT ABOUT
| HER I SUPPOSE.
 WHAT THE HELL
ARE YOU DOING?

YYYYoung
masten..!
 TELL ME,

WHY ARE
YOU ACTING
LIKE THIS?

NEGATIVE

~
BASTARD... I

Oo 2 .

WHY DID You

DECIDE TO KEEP
THAT B*TCH?!
 SO THIS IS WHAT
THEY MEANT WHEN
THEY SAID THEY
COLLIDED OFTEN.

IT’S JUST LIKE ME

AND MY SECOND SON
OF A B*ICH BROTHER,
EVEN DOWN TO THE
AGE DIFFERENCE.

SERVES YOU
RIGHT. WHO DO YOU
THINK YOU ARE? IF YOU
FEEL WRONGED, THEN
JUST TAKE THE HINT
AND LEAVE.

YOU SHOULD'VE
GOTTEN LOST WHEN I
WAS STILL BEING NICE
ABOUT IT.

CHOICES...
PROBABLY WON’T HELP
EVEN IF IT TURNED THEM
ON. IT WON'T BE A PROPER
CONVERSATION ANYWAYS.

sIT'S NOTHING.
DON'T WORRY
ABOUT IT.
 IS NOTHING?

THAT LOWLY THING

DIDN'T KNOW HER PLACE
AND DARED To RIDICULE
THE ECKART FAMILY!
 ALOWLY THING
THAT DOESN'T KNOW
HER PLACE.

WE DON’T NEED
SOMEONE |IMPUDENT
LIKE THAT.

THERE ARE
PEOPLE OUT THERE
WHO WOULDN'T EVEN ASK
FOR PAY IF THEY COULD
JUST HAVE THE CHANCE
TO WORK FOR THIS
FAMILY!

I THOUGHT IT
WAS FAMILIAR.

IT'S WHAT HE
SAID TO PENELOPE ALL
THE TIME IN NORMAL
MODE, ISN'T IT?
