How to Survive as a Princess in a Reverse Harem Game - Chapter 22
[<Character> Reno Harsen
―Affection: 40/100 (Interest)]
‘He has 40?’
I had seen messages indicating that his affinity had increased here and there, but I was surprised that it was this high.
‘This is the highest affection among all the characters I’ve seen so far.’
Well, Reno had been a friendly character towards me from the beginning. If he had acted friendly while having a low affinity, that would have been shocking in its own right.
[―The guardian who has sworn allegiance to the 1st princess ‘Nepheli Leta Anesis’, Medietas, born between a human and an elf.
The Duke of Harsen, feeling pity for him after losing his parents at a young age, took him in. He later recognized his outstanding talent and enrolled him in the Duke’s household.]
As I examined Reno’s character information, I found a word that had intrigued me all along.
‘Medietas.’
From the context, it seems to refer to a mixed-race lineage…….
‘Does this place despise mixed-race individuals?’
Considering the reactions of the maids and the response shown by Meliana, it seemed highly likely.
Even after reading through Reno’s profile, there was still a ‘Next Page’ option.
‘There’s more?’
Turning to the next page, a new character profile appeared.
[<Character> Killis Yelpen
―Fiancé of the first princess, ‘Nepheli Leta Anesis.’ Head of the Yelpen dukedom, one of the three great dukedoms.
Possesses magical skills that rival those of royalty. Also aids in the education of royals with his exceptional knowledge. He has a sensitive and prickly personality.]
This time, there was no ‘Next Page’ since it was the last.
The man, with light gray hair that appeared almost silver and crimson eyes, looked somewhat sickly and sensitive. His beautiful appearance, complemented by long hair, elicited a sense of admiration.
As I shifted my gaze from the character illustration to read the profile, I was astonished by one word.
“A fiancé….…. that means he’s someone promised to marry, right?”
No, wait. Then this crazy game encourages relationships with other men despite having a fiancé?
Momentarily speechless from the shock, I soon remembered that the essence of this game was reverse harem and fell silent.
Well, that’s what reverse harem was about.
Romancing other characters besides the male lead…….
It was a part that was difficult to accept according to my moral values, but on the other hand, I wondered what I couldn’t do. After all, it was all a game, and my goal was to return alive.
To do that, there was nothing I couldn’t handle. If I had thought I couldn’t do it, I wouldn’t have accepted my relationship with Isaac when I first entered the game.
‘This man doesn’t have a visible affinity.’
Did he have specific conditions for being freed, like Isaac or Reno?
After reading all the information about Killis Yelpen, I flipped the encyclopedia back to the first page. I meticulously read through the character details and memorized them. They would surely be helpful later.
Since there were only a few pages, it didn’t take long to memorize the encyclopedia. Not wanting to fall asleep just yet, I decided to read the book I had borrowed from the library earlier.
The book <The Myth of the Foundation of Lublin>.
Although I had the same book in my inventory as a reward, it opened as a message window, unlike the encyclopedia.
While the message window was convenient for reading, I wanted to physically hold the book, so I brought it to my bed and sat down.
‘It really is thick, even if you look at it again.’
On one hand, I was pleased with that fact. It was better to have something to do than nothing at all.
As I opened the book, I noticed the corner edges were stained with a light green color from the grass. It unintentionally brought back memories of my time with Reno. I tried hard not to think about it and quickly turned the page.
[Since the beginning, two life forms were born.]
The moment I read the first sentence, a sigh escaped me. I didn’t expect it to be interesting, but this verbose writing style was surprising.
