So we have a reincarnator whos forcing the harem route, we have the unlikable villainess and the super simp MC. Although MC may change now but whom were we supposed to root for in this series?

Because it comes from noctune. I wonder if the manga will include erotic scenes

File this under "Could have easily just been a fantasy story without isekai being involved" for later.
Nah, with how dogged the butler was, nothing but a sudden change in personality could have changed his "loyalty". It was either demonic possession, bipersonality disorder, reincarnation from the past or isekai; and honestly only the isekai can help us relate properly to MC's in these kind of medieval settings.

If he hadn't been isekai'ed, then he would have kept being the exact same "yes m'lady" guy as always; now we can see him plot and act behind her back, manipulating her without her suspecting a single thing.

Villainess? ...I can fix her -THE COMIC-

It's a shame that the fellow corporate slave the ML found kinship with shortly before isekai time reincarnated as the heroine, likely putting them in direct conflict with each other. I'd prefer if fellow reincarnators cooperated, but I don't see this to be likely here.

Forbidden mind control magic? Life blood pact? Misplaced values? Misattributed worship? Stockholm Syndrome? Excessive Abuse? Slave from birth?

He doesn't need to be an isekai victim for there to be a legitimate reason behind him coming to common sense, it was just the easiest way the author thought to do it without having to put effort into it.

Also I don't know what you mean by Isekai helping us relate, because I've never really related to any Isekai character outside of Mushoku Tensei. All of those other avenues are perfectly relatable. Abuse? Loss of choice? Regret? There's tons of relatability in someone being forced to do something and then hating that it was forced on them, but again, the author chose the easiest path.

dang what a let down, especially with how shit the villainess is she clearly needs "correction"

There's almost certainly gonna be "correction", just that with the "she's easy" + she ends up "happy" I don't expect their long term relation to be all about it.

From the 2 chapters so far, she 'likes' him enough to give him protective magic stones and panic when he's about to die, but at the same time also have that typical noble hubris to be unable to be open about it (difference in social status and all that)
So new MC can probably use that to manipulate her.

I am so confused on what's going on
So the Heroine is a reincarnator who's forcing the harem route for some reason, we have the Villainess being the villainess of the game (Some extreme tsundere who seems to care for her butler even though she essentially killed him when she beat him up so it felt a little off) and the Butler who gained previous life memories after essentially dying to said Villainess.

It's funny how some people don't have basic comprehension skill. The mc will realize that the heroine is a reincarnator like him, and while yes, he is the villainess servant, later he'll realize that the heroine is much more evil than the villainess and that the villainess was a good person deep down all along. Basically every other villainess manga plot

That was before he got his memories back, NOW we should get into the actual plot from the synopsis.

Although given what's suggested in the synopsis I guess we're not going Asanagi route.
Oh okay. So, in ch 1 he didn't remember anything, but now he does. I was confused.
