I Appear to have been Reincarnated as a Love Interest in an Otome Game

Jackie, will you really abandon your country?

Because I wanted to talk from the bottom of our hearts, I stopped mincing my words.

Sensing the change in the atmosphere, he too straightened his posture and sent a serious gaze this way. I could tell he was thinking, I cant make a wrong move here.

Yes If its for Michelle

You will abandon your country just for Michelle?

Yes Ill risk everything for her

Or so he replies doesnt this sound awfully like a line from the game? Ill Risk Everything for You indeed.

Today, everything Jackie said all felt disharmonious. I do think that Jackies feelings toward Michelle is real. However, saying, If its for her It feels like the game is acting in here.

Its hard to comprehend that he would do that much for Michelle

From a young age, Jackie had been moving close to Henry.

The reason he came to study in this country was to protect his younger sister from Henry by separating them. The reason for him following Michelle also seemed like it was to keep an eye on Henry and maybe even sacrifice Michelle to him

However, when Michelles content changed, he instantly fell in love and instead plotted to overthrow Henry.

Up until now, there was no route to abandon the country. Why now?

That bothers me a lot

If thats from the games correction

This guy was not interested in Michelle until recently. The others actions seem to have been influenced by the game, but this guy didnt have that.

Jackie fell in love with Michelle because she changed. The game had nothing to do with it, it was pure romance.

However, Jackie is definitely acting strange now.

If this is the game influencing him, why did it start now?

Thats what bothers me.

Is there any point in the game influencing his actions when hes already become lovers with Michelle?

Furthermore, this world has four different elements mixed up. The original game + additional contents.

Originally, the characters actions would be set in stone, but now everythings in disarray.

So if the game is influencing them, I wont know how theyll move now.

Many scenarios are probably going off simultaneously, and if the trigger condition is satisfied the events will begin forcibly.

On top of that, neither Michelle nor I know the additional contents scenarios well.

For example, if this current situation is part of the additional contents, I wont be able to notice it. So I cant hastily come to conclusions.

Also, even if we try to avoid the events, the game influences it so that the event is forcibly triggered.

Like Roberts annulment of engagement and the kidnapping yesterday

From this incident, I learned that its not possible to avoid the events. Thus, I need to create many predictions and prepare for the aftermath.

In this situation where I dont even know the triggers, it will be almost impossible to prepare in advance. However, I still should do as much as I can to be able react to them immediately.

And then

If its hard to predict the current scenarios, why dont I think about erasable scenarios?

First, I believe its safe to assume that Roberts, Douglass, and Brads scenario are out of the picture.

Also, by Brad exiting, I want to believe the manwhore scenario is gone. However, it seems I too am a playable character, so I cant completely exclude the possibility.

As for the scariest BL edition

For this, the couples apparently appeared through the contribution of the heroine, so once Michelle is quarantined from them, this scenario too should disappear. Yup, I want to erase this one as soon as possible!

Then, the original scenarios left are mine, Henrys, Hughies and Jackies.

Mine is out of question. There is not enough affection to escalate into a romance event.

Jackies scenario is in progress. Hes even thinking about abandoning his home country, so definitely yeah.

Henrys is definitely the imprisonment ending, I think.

Hughie is I dont know. Anyhow, I think its okay either way whether the scenario is in progress or not.

He smells like Henrys small fry. Even if is planning something, I dont think itll go well.

However, why is it that I get the feeling that the game is influencing Jackies actions?

How is it related to the future developments?

Its too unpredictable, that doing anything might be a waste at this point.

Its like Im playing in a rigged game of poker. A hopeless battle.

Also whether Jackies behaviour is foreshadowing a new development thats what Im most curious about now.

Daniel

Yes, sir. I believe that he is under some sort of influence

When I asked Daniel, he confirmed my suspicion. Whether thats the game or not

His will and the game. Those are unbalanced, so the distortion stands out

Anyway, if we cant predict what will happen next we just need to quarantine those people. In this case, four people, Michelle, Jackie, Henry and Hughie.

Out of these, I can take care of Michelle and Jackie. Ill let Hughie be for now and decide later.

Now, how should I send Michelle and Jackie away from this school?

There, I can use Henrys favourite move, imprisonment. If the heroine disappears, the game is bound to end, so everything might be solved.

And if I put them in the same cell, they might actually be happy

Jackie, Im planning on restraining you in this country for a bit. Of course Michelle will accompany you.

What, is, it?

To my sudden proposal, he eyes me suspiciously.

Of course he would. There wont be anyone who would just say Yes, I understand so easily. So I have to explain properly?

You will hide yourself from Henry. If the country is restraining you as a related party to a crime, even if its a prince a foreigner cant intervene. However, this will turn into a war of attrition now. Thus, I will restrain the two of you. The justification is that the two of you are important witnesses to the incident yesterday. Afterwards, youll be imprisoned on the suspicion of espionage. Of course, when the situation calms down, Ill petition for you to come back to school, but I cant promise when.

Listening to my proposal while resting his head on his fit, Jackie looked pained for a while but soon he returned a resolute expression.

Indeed I need the resolve to abandon my country However, I believe it is a sound plan. Both for Michelle and for my safety as well.

Jackie looked at someplace cheerfully and then bowed to me, saying, Im in your care.

Now that this is decided, its time to act.

Daniel, please bring Michelle here. Also, contact the emperor.

Understood, sir.

After bringing Michelle here, Ill describe the situation and for the time being confine her to the castle. Afterwards, Ill meet up with Louis tomorrow and decide on our next action.

Safety first now. For other matters, later!
