Must be highly concentrated aphrodisiac if it still works from the few drops that might have ended up in Aina's mouth from this accident. Unless it's so potent it works even through the skin. In that case, what on Earth would have happened if she actually emptied the whole glass?

I have a feeling this wasn't enough for the real effect. Will the truth even be revealed, about the drink?

Well her mouth was open when she fell. Obviously some of it had to have gotten in if both her cheeks were wet.

Thanks for the translation!

Some substances are more easily absorbed through the skin than through investigation, party because substances absorbed through ingestion have a large portion filtered out by the liver. At the same time, substances that can be absorbed in effective quantities from just a few droplets on the face, especially liquid substances, would most likely be absorbed in concerning amounts by the mucus membranes in the mouth, so your concern is still valid.

My point mainly was that if Clarissa was planning to have Aina drink it, it could easily result in all of it being consumed. So, the dosage would need to take that into account. That being said, aphrodisiacs, as seen in fiction, are fictional drugs, so any overdosage effects would be up to the author's decision. The same goes for the minimum amount that results in any effect.

What comes to the absorption, since Clarissa was spiking the drink with it, it suggests it was meant to be used that way. It's also unlikely something like aphrodisiac would taste so horrible a tiny bit of the diluted drink would be enough, as the taste would prevent anyone drinking more. Considering the usual scenarios, it would be better if the target didn't realise they were being drugged.

So the saintess literally clocked the prince's fiancee, and immediately started to sprint towards her yelling about how she got a dress from FL's fiance?

The illustrator really needs to step up their game in positioning in scenes like this. The ammount of rubberbanding needed to make it happen is comically bad. At the point where the black haired girl with a ponytail and black dress trips the Saintess, she is already well passed Cassandra. Yet inexplicably she some how ends up catching the drink fully in the face without crashing into either...

This is a poorly written story. It's going to be the classic fantasy aphrodisiac that works as well as the author needs it to without thinking about any kind of logic to how it works.

Yeah, I noticed that a lot of the blocking sucks, here; not quite nonsensical, but the passage of time in the panels makes it feel like rhey were drawn only via a vague description, and not by, well... storyboarding? Like you'd normally do?
Possibly because it's a copy of 100 other stories, so they can really just "phone-in" most of it; the character blocking for any given scene doesn't have to actually fit, because we already know the 10-15 likely outcomes of this dinner party within the story, right?
Because we've read this exact chapter before; the dialogue from the last 20 stories like this are entirely interchangeable, and the words said will be a combination of the last 3 stories in some way.

So why bother with making the art match the words? Money matters more for a mass-market, hyper-edited, cookie-cutter plots, sho gai-nai, sou-desne, ganbarre ganbarre, burakku zhaibatsu, blah, blah, blah.

Anyway.
Yeah.
Totes agree, homegurl.

This played out a bit different in the WN... The black haired girl, or should i say the shadow "Bunny", was dressed as a server maid at that party and exchanged her drink with a way stronger aphrodisiac that didn't have to be digested, only needed to touch the skin. The rest, Bunny tripping her, was the same in the WN.

The shitty prince gets hospitalised with severe dehydration and a shattered pelvis.

100% intended to be drunk. The previous chapter has Clarissa say "If I make lady Aina drink this..."

You know, I think rather than the 300th story where someone becomes the villainess, I'd like to see one where they become one of the villainess's background lackeys.

I guess the closest I've seen is the gyaru maid one, and it was great, but also axed early because this world sucks.

And you know what?

We're still going to read the story. We'll still follow it.

What kind of aphrodisiacs are these guys working with?

I wonder if evidence will be harder to find like this.
