I, a Slacker, Am Destined for a Happy Ending

After restarting through multiple playthroughs, you know all about taking what you want and walking away without a care.

Facing the sharp-tongued, old-fashioned young master.

You pull out a bank card and slap it against his face. "You're the one who's my dog."

Facing the side-parted classmate who's sick with longing and keeps coughing up flowers.

Heroes have always fallen for beauties. You give him a kiss and casually wipe his memory. You're wonderful, but I'm not good enough for you. Forget me. Next!

Facing the man with Heavenly Restriction, a devoted househusband.

His chest muscles press against your back. Sorry, I'm just a girl.

Facing the feather-headed guy who shows up demanding that you name him.

Teacher-student romance? I'll have to pass.

And so on and so forth. You look at the three sweet-bean-paste buns in your left hand, the two weird-haired guys on your right, and the pink-haired guy behind you with a scar at the corner of his mouth, clueless about what's going on. At last, you realize that something seems a little off.

At this point, you might as well throw everyone into the same stew.

Reader's Guide:
