Rosetta-sama, You're Overdoing It! - Chapter 6

Chapter 6: Rosetta’s Tactical Assessment 5

Was Lionel absent throughout the entire game?

I don’t know when Martina died, but Rosetta was already engaged to the first prince prior to the main storyline.

So, if we work backward, Martina must have been killed sometime between when I was 8 and 16 years old, and I became engaged.

If I’m chosen as the fiancée, then it means there’s no engagement between Lionel and me, unless the engagement is broken… It means Lionel would be dead as well.

If things go as expected, Lionel dies, I’m left alone, Martina is assassinated, I become engaged to the first prince, and the main story begins. And then comes my bad ending. That’s the main plot of the story.

Maybe Father thought unfavorably of Lionel and killed him because of the injury I suffered here?

Nah, that’s unlikely. If I had anything to do with Lionel’s death, it would have been mentioned at the time of my judgment.

So, there’s a possibility that Lionel might die someday, even though I don’t know when. If I can save him, it might avoid the bad ending, right?

Alright, I’ll aim for that good ending.

Lionel is cute, and he’ll definitely grow from a beautiful boy to a handsome young man. Plus, he’s a prince. He’s definitely a fiancé I can’t afford to miss.

But then, it depends on how Lionel dies, right? Oh, but perhaps he’s simply keeping his distance. But then, it would be strange for Lionel, who appears to be around the same age as me, not to be at school, right? Maybe it’s better to assume he’s dead.

No, but this is the real world, so it might be different from the game…

Ugh, I’m getting confused about everything.

Oh well, forget it. For now, let’s think of this as a world with the game settings. If I don’t do anything, Lionel will die. I’ll act under that assumption.

That’s right, no matter what happens, I need to acquire enough power to be able to help, as much as I can.

And besides, the healing magician said he healed the wound on my head, so in this world, magic is usable.

This is exciting. With my extensive knowledge of games, I want to try various spells. Maybe I can use spells like ‘Kasizzle’, ‘Berserker’, ‘Blizzard’ and ‘Curaja’*. Oh, I can’t wait for that.

*References to several video games.

According to the laws of this world, there might even be magic tools for sale. If possible, I definitely want to recreate the Golden King’s treasury. And there’s that promise of ensuring a one-hit kill victory.

And what about magical creatures? I wonder if there are yellow birds that like to run or birds that like to pull carriages? Maybe even magical goats. And don’t forget about slimes with spikes.

Oh, my dreams are broadening. Uh-oh, uh-oh.

“Oh, young lady… That expression might be a bit too much.”

“Huh!?”

Oh, that was close, that was close. That was not the face a maiden should make.

Let’s put Lionetta aside for the moment.

Well, anyway, that’s the current situation.

Next up will be our school life.

I should make a flowchart with the first prince, the son of the prime minister, and who else was there? There was definitely a class president.

And then the student council president? And there was a friend in a supporting role too. Who seems to have the highest favorability rating among the characters?

Oh, and there was one classmate who was a hidden character, right? Oh yeah, there was also a teacher.

I think there were about 12 people in total. Who else was there?

By the way, the friend in the supporting role is not a target for conquest. Even though she’s the closest to being the heroine, the heroine isn’t interested in supporting characters. No matter how close they are, they won’t be conquered. Even the two from the tiger dojo can’t be conquered (blood, sweat, and tears).

Let’s start by writing down the flowchart based on what I remember. I’ll remember the rest eventually.

And then… Oh, right, I should also write down what Rosetta will do.

I think it was only Rosetta’s route with the first prince and the son of the prime minister. Oh, and maybe a reverse harem ending.

To be honest, while I admire the reverse harem concept, actually doing it is a bit daunting.

Because, you know, you have to bear children for all of them, right? In many ways, that’s just asking for trouble. It’s an early death ending. A tragic ending. Envy… cough, cough.

Let’s hope the heroine isn’t foolish enough to aim for that.

If she does, it’ll probably turn into a yandere massacre between the guys. Even the cats will be surprised.

The school trial commences. The culprit was Yasu. …Wait, who’s Yasu again?

And if you opt for the class president, I believe the vice president’s daughter assumes the role of vice president, and in the student council, she becomes the secretary, correct?

I recall a yandere countess classmate emerging from somewhere, and with the teacher, wasn’t the heroine supposed to be targeted by another teacher? That slimy, creepy fellow.

If you mess up those events, it could lead to a bad ending, right? If it happens in real life, it could be a bit dangerous, so we should keep an eye on the culprit teacher.

He should stand out easily since he was chubby, but I wonder?

I’ll fill in the parchment little by little as I remember.

Hmm, it was quite a while ago, so I don’t remember a lot.

But I believe I’ve grasped the main idea?

There are some people I don’t remember, but I’ll recognize them when I see their faces. If it doesn’t lead to a harem ending, I won’t fuss over it, I’ll simply let them be if the heroine chooses that path.

But in the end, what’s important in this world is not just manners as a young lady, but strength.

It’s certain that enemies from neighboring countries will approach no matter which route the heroine chooses.

If possible, we need to strengthen the knight order. Having a weak knight order won’t do.

Alright, now that it’s decided, let’s start by training myself.

To gain strength, I should start with running.

And if there’s magic available, I want to learn how to use it.

I won’t let myself end up as a leftover from my past life, that’s for sure.

I must ensure that I achieve happiness and don’t interfere with the romance between the heroine and the first prince.

Yes, even if I end up being expelled from the country, I should develop my skills so that I can live alone! Let’s live a slow life with a boyfriend!

I should do sit-ups, push-ups, and even dance to stay nimble. Oh, and I might need to learn rock climbing in case I have to infiltrate the castle to meet the third prince.

I also want to learn swordsmanship. Well, that can wait until my body is ready.

Alright, let’s start running tomorrow, since it’s already late tonight.

I need some comfortable clothes. All I have at home are dresses.

And I need a weapon. Since I practiced kendo and choreography in my past life, I want a sword.

By the way, I started choreography because my junior colleagues at work said they had fun trying it. Starting from sword-making. I’m the type who likes to start with the basics.

I ended up getting a license from the master and then quitting.

Alright, that’s about it, I guess?

I’ll sleep now and do my best tomorrow.

And… hmm, I’m actually getting quite sleepy. I guess I can take a bath tomorrow after all.

I’ve finished what I needed to do today, so I should probably go to bed soon.

By the way, how long has Lionetta been standing there? Has she been standing there this whole time?

Oh, right. Since I’m the daughter of the master of this mansion, she has to stand until I dismiss her.

“Lionetta.”

“Yes, milady.”

“I’m going to bed soon.”

“Understood. Are you not going to take a bath?”

“I’ll take one tomorrow. Can you wake me up earlier than usual tomorrow? One hour… no, make it one bell earlier.”

When I said one hour, she tilted her head skeptically, so I corrected myself.

In this world, time isn’t perceived in the same way as in the modern world.

Even if I say one hour, they probably wouldn’t understand. After all, they don’t have clocks, and they might not even know that a day consists of twenty-four hours.

By the way, bells are rung approximately every two hours starting from around 4 am, with the last one at 6 pm. After that, the city gates are closed, and aside from the gatekeepers and patrolling soldiers, everyone stays indoors.

Oh, but there are still people who are active at night due to business. Like the night market, courtesans, and nobles heading there. And of course, assassins targeting such nobles.

Since I don’t even know if this world operates on a twenty-four-hour basis, there’s really no way for me to investigate.

So, I’ll need to look into the concept of time as well. I wonder how I should go about it? Making a clock seems impossible…

Well, it’s not necessary right now, so I’ll think about it later. Well then, goodnight.
