@MooseNucle I'm with you, this story is super dialogue heavy and the updates are every few months so it's so easy to forget. 😥
To help out everyone's who's lost:
Lizzia/Lizzie: Our MC who is the daughter of a marquess, mob character
Bern: Our ML, the duke and secret target of the otome game. Bern recently revealed that he was the current duke since his father fell ill. He was the villain in the otome game but it looks like Liz is steering him in a different direction.
Lila: Protagonist of the game, reincarnator like Liz, seems to be obsessed with Bern, crazy bish trying to get a harem with all the targets
Edwin: Blond guy. The current crown prince and one of the targets of the game. Clueless moron.
Katarina: Long hair blond girl. Bern's sister, villainess character in the game but became nicer after becoming friends with Liz. Previously engaged to Edwin but broke off her engagement with him (after Lila's callout event failed)
Clarissa: Lizzie's roommate, Alois' fiance. Was forced to work under Alois' orders because her family owes him a lot of money.
Alois: Long haired guy (tied hair to the side) Friend to Edwin, one of the targets, pulling a lot of strings for Lila's sake which is making everyone suspicious
Johan: Short haired guy, Friend to Edwin, one of the targets, his parents taught Edwin swordsmanship
Iodilus: Cropped haired guy, Bern's friend and companion to Katarina. Part of the shadow council Bern leads.
Darius: Medium length hair guy, one of the targets, the bad boy of the game who is Edwin's young uncle. He previously kidnapped Liz to negotiate her cooperation in helping him take down Edwin because he wants Edwin's younger brother, Selim, to be the next king.
Lucas: Super curly hair guy, one of the targets, the teacher who's motivations are unclear. Lila is apparently the daughter of duke of his family. I think he's the duke's younger brother, I don't remember TBH
