His life philosophy is something we've all heard so much about.…

The screenshots are only from the routes that has already been released. Mostly Elbert's route and one screenshot from Liam's.

This time, Ally decided to participate.

I can't argue with that. But… I find this way of thinking too primitive.

Did you just call me primitive?

Not you, honey. Your way of solving problems.

If you had said "distract yourself" I would have agreed.

Isn't that the same thing?

...

No, I'm not going to continue this argument. You're just going to pretend you don't understand.

To some extent, I agree with this, but if you always avoid reality… you will just live in a fantasy.

What's wrong with that?

There is nothing wrong with taking time to recover from a very difficult situation. But due to the fact that we go through difficulties, we become stronger and wiser.

You're a masochist.

The only way to find out if this is true or not is to test it in practice.

I don't know which I should be more afraid of - your courage or stupidity…

As another version of his "let's try to forget", he suggests

Ignore. Again… I can't disagree with that. In most cases, it's easier to pretend that we don't see something than to solve problems or help someone. But not always…

An example?

You help cats… You could turn a blind eye to this.

Cats are better than people.

Well… I prefer dogs…

But despite everything… he doesn't always follow his own advice.

According to his philosophy "just forget and look the other way", he shouldn't even bother looking for another solutions. But… his conscience won't let him do that.

I just don't like dealing with the consequences. It's bothersome.

Right… Let's say it's true…

And the best part

"Lighten the mood" in his language is "ruin the mood."

Well, the world is a dark place. So I'm ruin it.

You're my sweet lantern…

I don't know about sweet part… I haven't checked, but a light? I think your definition of this word is totally wrong.

That's… Oh, what's even the point to try to explain? You're just going to pretend that you didn't understand me.

I'm tired, very, very, very much. If Ally offers me a "sweet dream", I'll probably agree. That's how tired I am.

I have prepared countdown posts. A summary of Harry's Dark IF (it will be post on Saturday, as promised) and a little bit from Kicho's route and Licht's sequel.

I need to get some rest.

So… I'll disappear for some time. I need to breathe the real world and… to sleep a lot. The posts will be coming out at the same pace, but I won't be here.

I don't like to disappear without saying a word, it's impolite. I'll be back in no time with a bunch of new ideas, brimming with positive energy and ready to shower it on all of you.

Don't forget to have fun! Laughter prolongs life and makes it brighter.

Licht's sequel 4ch (cough)

Sari is so old-fashioned. I didn't say he is old. These are unrelated terms!

Daddy… They were just hugging… and flirting… And, you know, they are engaged. And now they're not even in a public place. Don't be like that!

Actually...

The first time he coughed at the very beginning of the 2nd chapter… Then, when they were near the castle, in the 3rd chapter. And now… in the 4th. She can't count to 3... And they call her smart? I think the standards there are really low.…

Jude's route

What I expect to find on Jude's route.

I'm not interested in a romantic relationship with him, I only see him as a friend.

First of all. How did his ability awaken? What was that? A promise, anger, revenge? What is the main motivation behind his curse? It was shown on Harry and Roger's route, but nowhere else. So I'm really looking forward to know about it on Jude's route.

Secondly, I want to know more about his childhood. Where is he from, what happened to his parents, why did he live on the street? How did he earn his first money? Some of this will probably be explained at the Past Records event, but maybe they will leave something for the main route. And I expect to see all this and even more. Where is mother? Where is sister? That kind of things.

Don't you f*** dare use the concept "he's going to die young"!!!!!! I don't wanna live long, I would like to die before my body and brain fail me, but you never know how it will be. Life is given to all of us for a reason, each of us has a purpose, so until we do what we have to do, we will live. And don't you dare say that he's going to die young. Don't give me any more reasons to be jealous of him!

When did he and Ellis join the Crown? What do you mean by "recently" - a month, a year or two years ago? How old Jude is or what is the age difference with the other boys. I don't care where you'll do it, on the main route or event. GAVE ME THE NUMBERS!

And the last thing. I want a scene where Jude relaxes and smiles and Ellis asks him how happy he is. And Jude will instantly get angry or pretend that nothing of the sort. But in fact it is…

I'd like to see Ally more, but… I doubt he will be present on this route often…

That's it, I'll be extremely happy to get half of it.

!!! BUT !!!

I'll start reading his route a week or two later than the rest of you, so please… I'm begging you🙏… no spoilers. If you really had to, use the "spoilers" tag. I know it's tempting to share good things, but don't forget about others!

Well… We're getting a little closer to Ally. Cats.

There is a bond story about it…

I really love his gentle voice here. Without an excessive flirtation and playfulness. Absolutely sincere tenderness. Cute.

Actually his conversations with cats always have a double meaning. Is it a habit of his?…

Elbert's route

The Past Records event

And I really like that thought of Elbie...

I've never been into cats… It's probably the same as with soulmates… There is only one cat in the world that I can like. And this is Alfons.

Licht's sequel 3ch (Bite. part 2)

I hate the King of Tanzanite. Do you hear it Ennis? I hate you!!!

That's it. That's all I wanna say.

No, that's a lie, but I won't show any screenshots. Only… I call it the practice of writing silly dialogues. To understand what they are talking about, I suggest reading this first.

Just in case it's not that clear: Sariel, MC, Licht, Ennis (the king), Azel

Sari… could you give me your knife?

Why would you need it?

Without taking my eyes off the king.

He... ask for it…

I assure you, I understand your feelings completely. But we are here to establish closer ties with this country, so… it would be unwise for you to harm him.

I took a deep exhale.

You're right… I represent the country no less than Licht.

Are you discussing what to share with me?

I moved in his direction, intending to strangle him at least, but was stopped by Licht, who hugged me from behind.

What are you intend to do?

He's from the bloodline of that damn god, and it doesn't really matter if I hit him or kill him… the result will be the same.

He turned me around, still refusing to let go.

I'm fine. See? You shouldn't react like that.

This guy is… very…

What are you whispering about?

Don't! - Licht stopped me before I could open my mouth.

The commotion in the crowd gave me a pretty curtain idea who appeared there. I looked in the direction from which the noise was coming and met the gaze of the starry eyes.

I thought you have no desire to help?

I desided your last offer to bite me wasn't that bad…

...

It was a while ago…

Don't tell me you don't want it anymore.

...

Bite?

Oh, it was in a different version of that… day… I'm surprised Azel remembers.

I'm a God!

Agh... that joke of yours not funny anymore.

What's going on?

I'm trying to save your life, so shush.

Could someone please explain what Azel is talking about?

I don't understand either.

One day I said I wanted to bite his waist.

When? In your dream?

No, honey… It was…

...when…

I looked at Sariel.

When she was Sariel's fiancée.

Thank you, Azel. I didn't meant to say it out loud.

But nothing stopped you from saying that you saw me in a dream.

I look at him angrily.

Hey! When were you his fiancée?

In another life.

I'm at a total loss…

I'm the king, you know! I can't be ignored like that. With all due respect to the current god…

We are strengthening ties between our countries.

Yes, by biting…

Wha?

Maybe we should look for a more private place.

No! I don't allow it.

Licht tightened his grip on me.

I'm not going to bite her, you know, it's the other way around.

I still don't like it!

Can I excuse myself from that conversation?

No, you are not. You were her fiancée at the time. You have to witness it.

Stop it! It's getting weirder and weirder.

You suggested it, not me.

Back then you didn't say a word.

I was shocked back then.

It took you a while to get over it…

What can I say...

You're slow!

How dare you say such a thing to God!

I moved towards him again, but Licht was still holding me.

I'm trying to save your life, Ennis. Can you at least not interfere?

Maybe we should find a more private place after all.

Sari bows to the king of Tanzanite and heads for the exit.

Licht finally lets go of me and repeats after Sari. I just follow Licht without any reverence and feel the gaze of this strange "definitely not God", who was walking behind me. He seems to want to make sure that I don't try to kill that damn king. I take a deep breath.

I warned you, didn't I?

I just nod.

They spoil us. It's so pretty…

But I don't get it. They show us several 3⭐ cards with little Jude with different backgrounds, a 4⭐ card with little Jude, and a card with little Jude and a girl (or is it a CG from his route?). The 4⭐ card we'll get for an early bonus or for 570. What about the rest?.. I guess will see in couple of days.

The Past Records: Jude Jazza Event Announcement

The event begins 11/22/24 at 12 pm JST.

Accumulative bonuses:

Receive collection notices from Jude

570 early clear bonus card

Child sprite cards, badge explaining the nature of Jude’s relationship with each villain, and other avatar bonuses.

Top 100 receives sprites hugging a chibi Jude with different expressions.

And a bonus story of Jude’s POV about his love story with Kate.

Fever Time schedule will include triple time!

A burning fire…

I started Kicho's route and in the first story from his POV…

Oh no, what happened to your beautiful eyes? I mean, you're still pretty, but… You ruby eyes reflect the burning fire of your passionate nature. I wouldn't have recognized you without them… Who are you, mister? Where is Moto?

I wonder if it was his original design?.. This, actually would explain why his clothes are brownish shades…

A photo from Twitter...

I also think it's not Kate, because this girl has black hair. And Kate has light brown. I know that hair color can change over the years… but… I don't think it's her.

Partly because I hope that "they've known each other since she was a kid" will be on Vivi's route…

minor spoilers of jude past records

so ik ppl were suspecting the other person in judes past records card to be kate but i think we got a bit excited there bc that person calls jude “older” or “big brother” so…i hope it isnt kate /nm /neu it would be cool if they could like yk still implement the “we knew each other from childhood” trope though.

So… Today, at everyday reward, I received a ticket to the normal gacha card and I decided to try my luck…

Damn, I lost my 5⭐ card in a normal gatcha! I could get a wet Vivi…

...

...

You know what I mean.

Don't get me wrong… I love Liam, he's a sweet kid. But… I was a little angry at my beloved Ally, who literally lets ONLY him in. This… Why? Don't you trust me THAT much??? You're not even letting Elbert in… which is rather suprising…

So… Being a little tipsy and angry, I bought tickets bath gacha 2 (with Ellis and Vivi), although I promised myself never to do it again. What can I say… sober me and tipsy me have different opinions on what matters. And you won't believe it…

He let him in!

You would have spent all your savings on that silly man...

Well… yeah… You didn't let him in for so long that I had no other choice.

My route will be released in a week, you know…

I'm aware… Why?

It was so sweet… Thank you very much.

And I finally had a glimmer of understanding of this character.

I wonder which very old... fairy tale he comes from?

The Grim Reaper Awaits Only One Person Beyond the Bad Ending

My translation of Victor's bonus 95k love point story for Part 2 of the Fractured Fairy Tale event

I've also translated the letter that comes from one of the event sets here

Note that this is very bittersweet.

--

Tonight, I must guide another soul who has wandered into the world of fractured fairy tales.

Victor: Welcome to the world of fractured fairy tales... Victor: We have one new guest, ya~~y!!

Kate: T-this is... I... Just now, I was in the bookstore, and now...

To calm down the postal worker who had gone astray as she was in the middle of a delivery, I explained this world to her. As soon as she finished listening, her expression changed, her lips pressed together with determination.

(She's a sharp one.)

As soon as the signal bell tolled out, I made my usual declaration.

Victor: May you find your happiest ending, Miss Kate. Victor: ...Now, welcome to the world of fractured fairy tales.

In place of the woman who had been drawn into the story world, a single book fell to the ground.

Victor: It seems you've chosen 'Alice in Wonderland' first. Victor: Will you be able to reach your happily ever after?

...

Kate: Huh...? What- what was I doing...? Kate: I feel like I've been asleep for a long time...

And from there, Kate continued to search for the "missing piece" in every world, meeting bad end after bad end. Even though her memories of the fairy tale worlds were erased each time, she never let it discourage her, and always chose to open the next book to search for that "missing piece".

Victor: Ah, back again.

I followed along with her story. The stories of the world of fractured fairy tales were not like normal books. When someone entered that world, the text would begin to unfurl and a new story would be written.

Victor: At any rate, this is the first time I've seen someone return so many times.

Kate never gave up despite the number of bad endings she met, always drawn into the book to try again.

Victor: I've spoken with Harrison, and I think that you may really be the key.

In this story, Kate was being tormented by her wicked stepmother, and while she was walking in the woods, she slipped and tumbled off a cliff. And that was the end of that story.

Victor: ...How many times is this now?

And then she re-entered the fairy tale world.

Victor: Next is... Little Red Riding Hood, is it? The last time this happened, you met your end at the hands of the Big Bad Wolf before you made it to your grandmother's house.

Once again, I took the book she had entered into my hand. The world of fractured fairy tales will never end until the "missing piece" is found.

Victor: If you truly are the key... Victor: Then you must realize yourself that you are in fact that "missing piece".

What was missing from every fractured fairy tale was this: the protagonist.

Victor: A Wonderland without an Alice, a story with no Snow White, a tale where Sleeping Beauty disappeared without a trace. Victor: Without a protagonist, of course a story would end up fractured and twisted.

Once again the story stopped. I realized that Kate had met another bad ending, and put the book back. And then I prepared to meet her once again, to repeat the declaration I had made countless times already...

Victor: Welcome to the world of fractured fairy tales... Victor: We have one new guest, ya~~y!!

Kate: T-this is... I... Just now, I was in the bookstore, and now...

(I do wonder, why you keep coming back.)

I wasn't like Harrison, but my heart ached just a little upon seeing her back here again. I once again explained about this world to her, but--

(Huh?)

Just as I realized that there was something different than usual about this meeting, she began to speak.

Kate: U-um.

Victor: What is it?

Kate: I feel like I've met you somewhere before.

Victor: What?

This was something that had never occurred in the endless number of loops I have gone through. I couldn't stop myself from voicing my surprise.

Kate: A-ah, that probably sounded really weird-

Victor: Don't worry, it's quite all right.

Kate shook her head as if panicking, so I urged her to take a deep breath to calm down. As she did so...

(Every last memory of everything she experienced in the fractured fairy tale world should have been erased from her mind.) (Is it because she's returned to this point so many times that an impression of me has somehow remained?) (But that's never happened before...)

Bashfully, Kate smiled, just a little awkwardly.

Kate: Your hair is so beautiful, I guess I thought it might have left a deep impression on me.

The sight was radiant, something I could never find in a story: her beautiful smile.

Kate: I hope I'll be able to find that "missing piece".

Opening the book, she once more departed for the world of the fairy tale. Left behind, I turned and headed for the library full of fairy tales, so I could check on how she was doing.

...

(She's going to return again.)

I didn't follow along with the story she had been drawn towards.

Victor: If you can return the story to its original path, and find your happiness in that world... Victor: Nothing would make me happier.

But it wasn't because of all the past experiences that made me think she would meet another bad ending this time.

Victor: Perhaps you are the one I've been waiting for all this time.

From the depths of a bookshelf I retrieved a book with a faded cover. That untitled book was the one Kate had picked up first on the day at the bookstore, where she was whisked away to the world of fairy tales.

Victor: So many people have stumbled into stories just like you. Victor: But different people chose different books.

For some people it was Cinderella. For others it was the Little Mermaid.

Victor: The only person who ever took this untitled story in their hand was you.

For all that I wished that she would find her happily ever after as soon as possible, a single flicker of hope flared in my heart.

Victor: Kate, did you know?

A story of hope that I had given up on.

Victor: That book that you first held that day, it was mine.

Stroking the spine of the book that Kate had entered, I sat down.

Victor: It was my fairytale that drew you into this world. Victor: There has never been a single person like you before. Victor: But I didn't believe it. That you could be the key.

Opening that ancient cover, the book's title appeared, illuminated by the light of the candles.

Victor: I had thought that you would be the protagonist of some other fairy tale, setting it right. Victor: I never thought that that you could be the key to mine.

That fairytale contained an anomaly that was impossible to fix, one that no one had entered since it first fractured. Or rather, one that no one could enter.

Victor: But it appears as though this story doesn't need you, not yet. Victor: Even if I want you.

How many more bad endings will you go through, before my story finds its way to you? That old, faded story that began with a cliche line:

Victor: "Once upon a time, in a land far, far away..." "Over and over again, the wounded girl took Death's hand." "But that path led only to destruction. There was no hope for anything approaching a happy ending." "This is a story that leads to death. A story of beautiful ruin."

Letting out a breath, I closed the book. With my eyes closed, I imagined Kate and her slight, shy smile. I reached out for her light, far removed from destruction, but my hand met only air.

Victor: May you find your happily ever after soon. And may you not notice me, waiting here.

But, I wish--

Victor: ...that you would take my hand...

The words that left my lips, and the movement of my hand through empty air, extinguished the light of the candles. In the silence, I took the faded fairy tale in my hand, and pressed my lips to its cover.

Victor: Show me a happily ever after, Kate.

Licht' sequel 3ch

I won't even go into details so that you can imagine this scene more vividly. The context doesn't matter. I think it could have happened literally anywhere, anytime. At least that's how I imagine Licht.

One line from Belle: "I can't stop loving you"- and an immediate reaction

He can snap at any moment… turn into a wild beast… I really like this wild side of his! It's so… wow…
