After Failing to Win Over the Six-Eyed Sorcerer at Jujutsu High

[Complete, completion edition release on October 10. PS: The title and blurb have been slightly revised as requested. The story itself is unchanged.]

At a close friend's enthusiastic recommendation, Qianshan Dai bought an otome game called Jujutsu Era: My Love for You Is Surging ~Heart Beating?~.

While complaining about the title eight hundred times, Qianshan Dai randomly picked a white-haired character as her target. But when the choices appeared, she was stumped:

1. The Six Eyes shows off by eating some delicious Kikufuku in front of you. What do you do?

A. Act cute and ask him to give you a bite

B. Go buy one yourself

C. Look at him longingly and do nothing

"Ew..." Qianshan Dai looked disgusted. "Why can't I just snatch his Kikufuku and eat it?"

2. During training with your classmates, the Six Eyes is your partner. He knocks you to the ground without holding back. What do you do?

A. Lie on the ground and make him coax you before you get up

B. Rest your head on your arm and silently cry, deciding never to speak to him again

C. Brush off the dust and decide to let bygones be bygones, then happily go eat Kikufuku with him

"No way. I absolutely, definitely, positively have to hit him back!"

The game's choices were completely at odds with what Qianshan Dai wanted, so she set it aside after half an hour. That night, she went to sleep thinking, "What a piece of trash," and woke up inside the game herself, with that white-haired Six Eyes forcibly assigned as her target.

She even had a System to offer her tips on how to win him over.

"Host, acting cute and giving in to your target now will improve his affection for you."

"Who cares about him?! Dating someone else is perfectly normal, right? What gives him the right to be mad?"

"Host, your target has been punished with writing a reflection. Staying by his side and comforting him gently will help your relationship."

"Hahahahahahahahahahahahahaha, he deserves it."

"...Host, you won't be able to win your target over like this."

The System's frantic inner monologue: This is supposed to be a sweet romance game. Could you please stop thinking about leveling up and fighting your target all the time?

Qianshan Dai didn't care. She was going to do whatever made her comfortable. After a series of hopelessly oblivious moves, she headed for the bad ending under the Six Eyes' strange gaze, just as expected.

"There's something wrong with your game. This has nothing to do with me." Even as she was forcibly ejected, Qianshan Dai didn't forget to complain and protest.

It had only been a game, and after returning to the real world, Qianshan Dai got over it in a few days and went back to her ordinary life. Then one day, she came home to find a pure white cat wearing tiny round sunglasses, lying on the sofa and watching TV with its cheek propped on one paw as it licked an ice cream cone. When it saw her, it raised a paw in especially friendly greeting and said, "Yo!"
