...I don't get 'evil/selfish' vibes from this girl, oddly enough. A bit dreamy and deluded due to circumstance, but I think she actually means well enough- her idea of things got warped by finding and reading the book (which it should be reminded, WOULD be 100% accurate if Etheria wasn't a reincarnate) so it makes sense she thinks this stuff after some 'verification'.
She's also got a bit of a low self-esteem as well, seems like; she said it herself that she doesn't think she's good enough to pass those classes in comparison to the nobles, not that she just 'doesn't want to'. She's trying to just marry up. Ironically enough, that's ALSO relatively 'realistic' in terms of how she normally would function. The Archbishop is the radical thinker here, not conservative.

All this is to say that for now I don't hold a grudge against the girl. People can be very quick to vilify the OG FMC in these kinda stories but she seems fun for now, not an irritance. Maybe that'll change, but I hope it doesn't.

Agreed.
Now to see if she will continue being at least honest of will become the villainess.

Okay, so she's just...following the book without thinking about it. And because the book is based on the old timeline's plot, the bits that don't make sense are going to seem like flattery.

.......I mean. In a way, she and the prince are a good match for their utter inability to perceive their surroundings properly.

The younger prince's finance feels like more of a heroine though.

I do quite like this story and I'm not sure why. It might be that it actually digs into the otome plot and fills it up with a lot of substance. Or maybe it just moves fast.

Afaik the series raw is up to ch40+ already.
Its hard to tell what the story is about now because 60% of the raw chapters are either missing or locked behind paywall

After a year of lazy sighting... it's alive??
I actually had it like 80% done on my hard drive for a year, but couldn't get up the motivation to complete until I noticed the news about a new version of Krita with newly rewritten text layout tools - now it can actually automatically word wrap text inside a speech bubble.

I wonder if there is also some good tool (AI or not) that could help with cleaning raws, especially the specific job of filling holes in a repeating pattern, since it's another labor intensive and boring task.

The main story actually recently completed at chapter 51.

Thanks for the translation.

Dang that’s shorter than expected. Hopefully it wrapped up nicely.

So, I mean, take the modern day Incel who thinks Pop Culture promised them a hot wife who will work for them and feed them and then apply it to this girl for whom all of this is absolutely brand new
