yes but with clueless I meant she has like no idea about the system and the entire situation... like red hair just knows bro might not be as evil as he seems to act like, cus he actually saved her and that is enough for the system to be like "she found out you are actually not a villain" which is the condition for the backlash. That doesn't mean that red hair has much of a clue though since she still hase like no idea whats going on at all...
Yes, but the princess hasn't got a clue about anything. She still believes Frey is an ultimate villain, who betrayed humanity in their last timeline and is continuing to be a scumbag in this one. Redhead, by the looks of it, doesn't anymore believe Frey is simply wicked but that there's something unexplained about Frey's behavior and it's not all for evil purposes. That's the key. After all, they all remember their past life, so that's the same for all of them, even if they naturally know somewhat different things due to different lives and experiences in their past life.

If it actually does the entire web novel there will be a lot more than 30 more chapters (There are 524 chapters in the WN and I believe this has adapted 50 or so chapters). However, I kinda doubt that they will completely adapt the whole novel which makes me sad : (
gimme spoilers

There is a lot wrong here with Ferloche's reveal in this chapter compared to the WN but they are pretty spoilery so read at your own risk

Her just suddenly dropping the airhead persona out in daytime where the sunlight is beaming in without triggering any penalty for Frey and Ruby is pretty big plothole. I know the webtoon has already done away with the whole system triggering during day vs night plotpoint during the Kania chapters but the main issue still remains in that the penalties should be there since Ferloche already knows the truth.

Secondly, her dialogue that she should start making her move now is just incorrect, Ferloche has been scheming since the beginning of the story, she did not just start "making her move now".

in the WN, her reveal happens much later, there were only subtle hints up until this point that there is more to her character.

got full story spoilers?
I can give spoiler about Ferloche and some parts of the story but getting full story spoiler will take too much to write:

Ferloche is a eternal regressor from a timeline where Frey did succeed in tricking everybody and defeated the Demon King Ruby. The ability to regress at will was originally an ability that belonged to Frey, he retried countless amount of times ( while the number was not stated, it can be estimated to be hundreds of millions if not billions of times) in an attempt to get that happy ending for everybody. In his final moments right after defeating Ruby, he got stabbed by Ferloche without being able to say farewell or clear up any of the misunderstandings. There was no happy ending awaiting him or even any of the heroines despite the defeat of the Demon King. Frey's mental state was already on the verge of collapse and all the Retries have taken a toll on his soul. He used his one wish from the Sun God to annihilate his soul from existence instead of revival as Frey knows that if he was to be revived back to the world, he would take out his built up resentment over eons on everyone he cared about and possibly become a calamity.

Frey's soul was sent to the deletion room but the timer stopped at the last second, I can't remember why the timer stopped. but anyways, lots of despair happens with the heroines realizing the truth. Ferloche resolved to undo everything and shoulder the burden that came with regression, told the Sun God to let her inherit Retry. At this point, Ferloche is only driven by one goal to the point of obsession: to give Frey a happy ending. She ended up going through countless amount of regressions for that purpose. This also gave the Sun God time to recover enough power to implement the "DLC", which involve "kidnapping" a Korean dude from Earth who discovered a bug in Darktale Fantasy 2 and making him the hero from 1000 years ago. A byproduct of the DLC was all the other main heroines retained their memories from the 1st timeline where Frey double crossed everybody to get the False Evil system. Ferloche at some point during her regression realize that the key to access the DLC was the 5 enlightenment (The main heroines need to know the truth) and one coincidence (Glare, a little girl who has an OP ability, a bug found by the Korean guy). Ferloche keeps on regressing to try to figure out the timing of fulfilling these criteria's. By this point, she is very mentally unstable from all the regressions (again no exact numbers but it is easily in the millions), she ended up developing split personalities fooling the Demon God and the system without even needing to try. She let her dumb self handle all the day to day tasks, and only during crucial moments or during the night when she needed to plan things by writing in the diary does her true self emerges. She has to do it this way not just to fool the system but also because her true personality's mind can no longer be conscious for long without completely falling apart.

In a way, Ferloche is like the 2nd protagonist of the story, having ability to Retry and also fulfilling a similar to role to Frey and even suffering as much as him. In the current timeline, she is the reason why Kania and Irina was able to figure out the truth so easily. During the Auction incident, Ferloche deliberately led Kania in the direction in which Frey would drop his badge to trigger Kania's suspicion. During the dormitory questline, she fought in a way that would trigger Irina's suspicion. In one of the earlier chapters, Ferloche threw a maid outfit at Frey knowing his gonna make Irina wear it and afterwards went to snap his neck just to fool the Demon God, she did this knowing that Frey wouldn't die due to the one of the system ability at that time. Ferloche also almost always "accidently" interfere with Ruby's plans, and likes to use extra amount of holy power to "heal" her (which only hurts Ruby more since demon gets harmed by holy power instead) while acting completely oblivious.

Ferloche is a hidden mastermind and is the most unhinged character, her PoV chapters are always either hilarious or just full depresso in the WN and is definitely my most favorite heroine of the bunch alongside Serena.

EDIT: fixed some wording.

I can't believe they blew the lid on Ferloche's plot this early. Ferloche pretending to be retarded originally lasts until chapter 137.

For reference, Kania gives Frey his first stack in the novel at chapter 15, chapter 11 here.

Irina's second stack comes in the novel at chapter 43 of the novel, and around the 30s over here.

So most of the things were progressing at a relatively normal speed, but Ferloche's thing just got revealed like 100 chapters earlier than it should have.

yeah so to rank it:

the princess is definetly the cluelest person, like she knows basically nothing, then we have redhead who knows like something is up but is still pretty cluless, then we have the saint who knows who knows what, then we have his maid who knows basically everything MC knows, and lastly we have the Fan/strategist girl who seems to know lots of stuff.

Also there is technically MCs sister who also knows nothing and still thinks of him as really evil
