“Princess, what color should we prepare for your dress?”
“Perhaps a bit flashy color would suit you…”
“Should we tie up your hair or leave it down?”
The maids buzzed around busily for the upcoming ball.
Amidst this, I sneakily glanced at Seira’s head.
Maid of the Third Princess’s Palace
Affection: 538
Seira’s affection had dropped significantly since I kept prodding her guilt.
‘But it’s still not a low number.’
I keenly eyed Seira’s still high affection, pondering.
Over the past few days, I discovered several features related to the system window.
First, the letters above people’s heads revealing their names and status!
Staring intently at them would pop up a detailed info window, just like clicking on them.
Bing!
Just like now.
[3rd Princess Luielle Ajeister’s closest confidante. Niece of Countess Arlia, the princess’s nanny. Entered the palace at 5 as the princess’s playmate and became a maid at 15.▶Physical Strength: 138
▶Magic Power: 72
▶Attack: 20
▶Defense: 161
▶Ideal Type: Upright and kind man
▶View on Love: Dreams of a truthful and honest relationship without deception.]
Players could use characters in the game as [Allies] in each scenario, and these figures were probably reference information for that.
Interestingly, it even showed ideal types and views on love, likely due to the effect of Hezen’s item, [Miriam’s Ring].
‘Despicable. Even resorting to microtransactions to build his harem.’
[Miriam’s Ring], obtainable only via paid purchase, had no combat effect.It clearly showed his intent to worm his way into the hearts of female characters, infuriating me even more.
‘Well, it helped me gather necessary information…’
Seira had high moral values and a firm belief in guiding her partner onto the right path as true love.
So, I played on her guilt.
‘Seira, be honest now. Are you hiding your feelings for Hezen because of me?’
‘Pr-princess, I’m wrong, sob…’
Each of my words made Seira’s affection drop.
I didn’t stop there; whenever I had a chance, I visited Elizabeth.
According to [Miriam’s Ring], Elizabeth’s ideal type was a muscular man.
‘I’m worried about Hezen, sister. Actually, Hezen…’
‘What? Hezen let himself go and got a potbelly?’
‘Yes, all his firm muscles disappeared… Oh, this is a secret just between us sisters!’
Elizabeth was visibly disappointed by the secret I shared.
Her dropping affection score reflected her disillusionment.
I even boldly approached Sylvia, my rival.
‘Do men usually not wash their hands after using the bathroom, Sylvia?’
‘Oh my, how unhygienic! Who on earth…?’
‘Hezen does. I only mingle with Hezen, so I thought I’d ask you with brothers…’
‘Eww, how disgusting!’
Germophobic Sylvia’s affection plummeted at the thought of Hezen’s uncleanliness.
Her affection for him nosedived.
I smirked, watching Hezen’s charmed acquaintances’ affections plummet.
‘Let’s see him panic at the ball with their shattered affections.’
But these petty pranks weren’t enough.
“That damn guy has been so busy charming various women that just this wouldn’t be enough to make a significant impact.
I wanted a big blow.
A huge one that would drastically drop people’s affection towards him!
“Princess, you look stunning today!”
“You will be the most radiant presence in the ballroom tonight!”
Amidst the maids’ overzealous voices, I glanced at myself in the mirror.
Dressed in a shoulder-baring wine-red gown, I looked ready. The maids draped a black shawl over me.
“Thank you.”
I smiled briefly and headed for the ballroom.
“Her Highness, Princess Luielle Ajeister, has arrived!”
The loud announcement of the doorman marked my entry.
All eyes turned to me momentarily before dispersing.
Maintaining an elegant smile, I sipped a drink. As expected.
“Lulu…”
Hezen approached me with a grin.
For the past few days, he had been hovering around me, trying to regain my affection.
“Lulu, about the other day…”
[SYSTEM] Emergency! [SYSTEM] Emergency! [SYSTEM] Princess Luielle Ajeister begins to feel intense hatred upon hearing your voice…But each time he approached, my anger and power surged.
‘Yikes!’
He must have vividly remembered the day when I punched him in the face, causing his teeth to scatter.
Hence, Hezen repeatedly used his skill to escape whenever he approached me, triggered by the emergency alerts.
Despite his excellent skill effect, I could only snort at the sight of his retreating back.
“Been well?”
Hezen asked in a friendly tone.
‘Thinking I won’t attack with so many people around?’
I marveled at his cunning.
As he came closer, the quest window grew noisier.
‘So noisy.’
I looked at him, not bothering to hide my annoyance.
Being in the same space as Hezen allowed me to share his quest and system notification windows.
And when I got within 1m of him…
Bing!
An interface appeared.
Various buttons for checking the player’s status and skill/item usage.
It reminded me once again that this was a virtual reality game.
I briefly eyed the [Player Exclusive Shop] written in golden letters.
Male lead is a clingy little husband
One-line summary: The male lead is initially an arrogant, noble, love-deprived brat, later a cute, clingy, scheming little jealous one.
Introduction:
One day, Lu Yuner’s soul transmigrates into a female-dominant world. She enters the Imperial Academy and takes up the position of a doctoral instructor, teaching classes and grading schoolwork.
One day, she encounters the young prince Su Qingwan secretly skipping class from the male academy.
As a result, Su Qingwan is punished.
From then on, Su Qingwan sees Lu Yuner as a “thorn in his side”.
But before long, this “thorn” becomes the person he cherishes most, and he goes to great lengths to win Lu Yuner’s affection.
Mini scene 1:
One day, the sun is high in the sky but Su Qingwan still hasn’t gotten up for class.
Servant Xiaoyuan: “Young prince, it’s time for class. You’ll be late otherwise.”
Su Qingwan says arrogantly: “I’m not going. I am the esteemed prince, my status is so noble, why should I suffer this hardship? Besides, isn’t learning all this just to please women? Hmph, they’re not worthy!”
Mini scene 2:
After Su Qingwan falls for someone, he completely changes. He no longer skips class and diligently learns how to be a good husband and father. But he discovers that Sister Yuner is always surrounded by admirers.
Drunk and overcome with jealousy one day, he clings to Lu Yuner, crying beautifully like a pear blossom in the rain.
Su Qingwan: “Qingwan likes Sister Yuner.”
Lu Yuner: “Young prince, you’re drunk.”
Su Qingwan: “Qingwan isn’t drunk. Qingwan likes Sister Yuner, likes you so much, likes you to bits…” Before he can finish, Lu Yuner’s eyes flash with emotion and she leans in closer.
[Reading Guide]
1. The female lead is gentle, gracious, humble and polite but not weak. The male lead is initially an arrogant, noble, love-deprived brat, later a cute, clingy, scheming little jealous one.
2. 1v1, a bit torturous in the beginning but definitely sweet later on.
