[Wordplay] You're the Snarky Sidekick in an Otome Game

Synopsis

This is a world filled with magic.

The dwarf race, masters of craftsmanship; the elf race, skilled with bows and arrows; the agile beastfolk; the merfolk, whose songs bewitch their listeners; the powerful, greedy dragons; the shadowy, noble bloodkin; the pure, compassionate celestial race; the evil, cunning demon race; the human race, with its endless possibilities... and the gods, now lost to legend.

And you are the only princess of the human kingdom.

Many years have passed since the gods vanished. You actually belong to the Godfall faction, which believes the gods have fallen, but because of your status, you outwardly present yourself as a devout follower of the God of Light.

Your coming-of-age day is just around the corner. You await its arrival with eager anticipation, but...

The above is the description of Alice, a newly released romance game for women. It also comes with a full-dive device.

It looks perfectly ordinary, and the game doesn't even show a portrait of any male characters, only the back of a girl who looks about seventeen or eighteen.

Even so, with the summer heat so bad that people are nearly dying of heatstroke, you, bored out of your mind, still start the game.

A few things to know before reading:

1. A so-called interactive fiction game means that options will appear at the end of chapters for everyone to choose from! The story will then continue based on the option with the most votes. You can treat it exactly like a game: once you finish a route or die, you can start a new playthrough.

2. Though this is Western fantasy, to be precise, it's more Japanese-style Western fantasy. As for the comic relief character and all that, it's definitely not because I happened to watch Gintama while writing the first chapter and suddenly got carried away!

3. Once the options appear, voting will remain open for three days. The rest of the time will be spent writing and updating.

4. Suggestions are welcome, but please don't tell me how to write, thank you.
