Just sayin but:
Fiance - male
Fiancee - female
(I know there's the fancy e in the proper spelling, but eh)

:v so...
This was pointed out in his first release (so two chapters ago) and he continues to disregard it. He doesn't actually care about getting it right.

It is cute, but I think it could have been better with a few edits.

I'm thinking maybe making the villainess be aware that the heroine put a curse on her, similarly to how the typical slave mark works in other isekais. The heroine would have ordered her to be hostile towards her and feel jealously of her whenever the villainess saw her alone or with the prince. That way, it would go beyond just controlling her body, but also her emotions, which could be played for more drama. The villainess could try to figure out a way to undo the curse, but would not be able to do it herself or tell anyone precisely because of the curse.

ok I like this, if this got a continuation, that ending's got to go.

It was so abrupt.

I thought this was going to turn dark considering he's the 'only one' who spoke or empathized with her. but this is a series about attaining happiness. it's been a while- ty for the chapter

I mean, obviously, the OG game player knows nothing at all, and Cyril doesn't help or is a side character. Celestine gets the short end of the stick, because she's a "villainess."

Honestly, interesting take. There's some longforms that do the same, including one... Crap, I forget the title, something to do with eating porridge (because it's an important step in the "villainess" plan), but her sister had put a slave crest on her to make her act like the bad guy.

Anyway, was cute, ML noticed because he noticed her, good.
Now that's quite interesting... Let me know if you remember the title while I searched for it

Good premise, reminds me of another manga whose name I can't recall that has been dropped by the translator group just as it started moving towards its resolution. Something about Queen of Spades from Alince in the Wonderland (Alice turned out to be the guy in that story to the surprise of an isekai'd protag). Hope someone picks that one up one day.

Anyhow, thank you for yet another chapter!
It's been a looong time since I read it, but is it "Queen of Hearts in Wonderland"?

I was expecting a more meta narrative where she is complex by the game, the player, in a way "god", to act that way and coming to realize and try to fix it. Maybe that's too complex to get across in a one shot :p
Very cute though!

yeah this one was a massive missed opportunity, since the premise actually has sauce. making the other prince sympathetic would have drastically improved my thoughts on it because his pov is the most interesting in this scenario. trying harder to help fl through her personality change, maybe even annulling things for her sake because he believes the stress of becoming a princess is what's causing her 'mental illness' or that it's somehow his fault rather than a fault of hers. the only problem i see arising is explaining alise's situation, since him not abandoning fl totally means jumping ship to engaging her makes no sense. maybe make her more of a shoulder to cry on type of manipulator

the resolution also came out of nowhere and the characters were embarrassingly bland. that being said, the drama would have been pretty choice if i actually cared
