(Sultan's Game) The Moon Unrecognized

After the Sultan's Game began, the Sultan had a strange dream.

Roads stretched in every direction around him. Iron insects with wheels sped by, tall buildings filled the skyline, and crowds of strangers in bizarre clothes passed him. He looked around, and at last spotted the only familiar face across the way: his trusted minister, Altu, who had accepted his decree to begin the Sultan's Game.

He wanted to ask Altu what he thought of this strange dream, whether it was a good omen or a bad one. But something infuriating happened: Altu failed to attend court for seven days straight and wouldn't even send someone in his place.

The strange dreams continued night after night. At last, he couldn't hold back and asked the Altu in his dream, who had dark circles under his eyes and was rushing about, "You haven't attended court for all these days. Is this what you've been busy messing around with?"

Altu froze and shut the laptop in front of him.

"I don't know what you mean."

With the premise of the Sultan's Game, everyone loves Big Bro Tutu (with an exceptionally high reputation).

Sunny, cheerful, saintly Altu × gloomy Sultan, resentful that the moon won't shine on him

Inspired by my first playthrough, when I didn't look at a guide and just picked options on my own. I somehow ended up with a very high reputation and earned the achievements for not getting my wife to complain for 30 days and not attending court for 7 days. Also, after a classmate watched the Sultan tease me, they said, "Unrequited love is one person's chaotic battlefield." ( ) So this is a very self-indulgent plot setup. Just have fun reading. ( )

Content warning: This is an Altu-all setup where everyone loves Big Bro Tutu. Not very friendly to Chocolate Cat. The main pairing is Altu and the Sultan because their bond is the deepest, not because they're the most in love. Don't read if you're a stickler for exclusive pairings.
