[Question: What would happen if one day you discovered you could see other people's affection levels, and the world turned into a real-life Otome Game?]

Answer: Thanks for the invitation.

I'm in the government affairs office, just got off the spaceship.

I've got a three-billion-yuan project in my hands, surrounded by handsome men.

You ask what I should do if the world turns into a real-life otome game?

Heh.

That's an easy one.

Just wait to die.

Oh, don't worry. I'm not trying to mock the person who asked.

I'm describing exactly how I feel right now.

It's a long story.

Basically, I found out that the sweet, gentle cutie by my side is actually a sadistic sadist with a sweet exterior and a dark heart.

That quiet, introverted boy who isn't good with words is actually as sensitive and sentimental as a girl.

And the loyal dog who always obeys orders and puts his master first is actually a mad dog who could go berserk and turn dark at any moment.

Of course, none of that is a big deal. Who doesn't have a hidden side?

It would be even better if their affection levels for me weren't ridiculously high, and if their jealousy and darkening levels didn't shoot up by the second, as though they could trigger a dark bad ending at any moment.

(If you can't stand the first-person narration, skip straight to Chapter 10. It switches to third person from there.)

[Special Notice: This is an early work, written simply because I wanted to read a Sword Boy story and decided to make one for myself. I wrote entirely on inspiration, so there are many places where I let loose, plenty of flaws, and plot threads I never managed to tie up. If you come across something you don't like, please stop reading in time!]

Reading Warnings:

1. A playful, bantering style. There will definitely be out-of-character moments, so read with caution if that bothers you.

2. The protagonist is a natural flirt. She says very cheesy things without realizing it.

3. A heroine adored by everyone (?) A heroine who is a force of nature (yes).

4. Wish fulfillment, pure and simple. Read with caution if that bothers you.
