City Of Slumber - Chapter 1

Devilish Machans friend

Per my friend’s Machan recommendation, I started playing an otome game t.i.tled City of Slumber.
It’s a fantasy game with magic present, while you travelled to a neighboring country, a dragon cursed your homeland, it’s an otome game with simple RPG elements where you venture into dungeons to bring down the dragon. The heroine picked one out of three pairs of men to accompany her, and set out on a journey.

I chose the pair of Prince Henry and Knight Armand.
The reason?
Is there something besides my taste in their looks?
There isn’t. It wasn’t voiced.

During the journey, the childhood friends Prince Henry and Knight Armand said cla.s.sic lines, after making choices and defeating the dragon, the ending was decided by whose love gauge was higher, it was a standard boring game.

Although the heroine was a sister, in the middle of the story it came to light she’s a princess of a neighboring country!! It was such a convenient setting.
Beforehand they were being forceful with heroine, but afterwards the knight who tried to leave Miriam behind suddenly turned into a gentleman, seducing with sweet words, the prince who thought of making her a concubine made her his fiance!! That switch was well-received as realistic.

But, but, what was the most important!!

A recollection scene when Henry and Arman were together in the military school.

‘Did you, again, get severely beaten by him?’

(It seems he received a harsh beating from his older brother during swordsmanship lesson)

‘It’s alright. My older brother is strong I also have to brush up my swordsmanship like my older brother!!’

(His elder brother is also the capture target, though his looks were not to my liking compared to Henry. But, why wasn’t there a set of elder and younger brother?)

‘You are bruised. I’ll treat you’

Wha, wha, wha, what is that!? This conversation was too moe!!
Why won’t those two get together!!

As you’ve guessed, I am a fujoshi.
Lightly, modestly No, no, I’ll be honest. BL is more important than food Nosebleed.
Afterwards, even though it makes me want to cry, there’s only the annoying heroine.

Do not fawn on men, Miriam!!
Do not disturb people’s romance, Miriam!!
Do not ask the prince for help, Miriam!!
Do not approach the knight, Miriam!!

I earnestly tried to bottom out the love gauges of both.

However, there’s one problem.
The setting is, the witch Alice who joins the party midway gets close to the one who didn’t gain the favor of the heroine.

Moreover, Alice is in charge of hindering the characters. She tries to hinder Miriam.
Since she’s a daughter of a foreign n.o.ble, she’s more or less a n.o.ble villainess.
Alright, Miriam.
Set the course on Alice!!

In fact, this Alice course is a hidden route.
The person who told me about it also only knows of it from hearsay.
Perhaps, I think it’s a friendship end, Machan also doesn’t know the details.

“Hey, hey, Mii-chan. How far along in the game are you?”
Machan asked at school.
“Almost at the last boss.”
“You chose Henry and Armand. Which one are you getting close to?”
It seems Machan has no doubts I’m having fun with the otome game.
Her innocent, round eyes are unlike Miriam’s.

“Yup, which one?”
“I’m thinking right now. Both are interesting.”
“I guess.”
“Hey, do you have any sketchbooks left?”

Sketchbook is Miriam’s special ability.
An amazing hidden technique of drawing a monster to fight for you.
“Hm, but it doesn’t have an effect on bosses?”
“Well, you see. The last boss is quite strong, but sketchbook seems to work. When the dragon comes out, use it for the monster with an appearance of a mirror”
The last boss seems to be tough, and if someone out of the four party members die, you won’t reach the wedding ending.
“I see. Then I’ll try. Thank you.”
Thus I tried using sketchbook for the monster with an appearance of a mirror against the last boss
