Thank you for the compliments, I hope your heart is okay now 
But yes, I think a lot of people have solidified AA as their #1 RO for this story, which makes me consider how much attention the other RO’s get as ROs 
I am thinking of making the AA route unlocked once the player has finished one playthrough of the MC, I’m sure it’ll be a nice treat for everyone, as always thank you for reading

Fair warning, the Greek lettering in your banner spells out “Vefore tie Inchithent”. Greek in general is not an alphabet that lends itself to transliteration from English.

What Update Schedule do you prefer?
- Shorter updates, but they occur monthly

I’m having trouble visualizing the painter’s ability, you can summon a canvas where what you paint on it comes to life, right? But how big is the canvas? Is it always the same size or does it vary? And how long does it take to paint for it to take effect? Because in-game, sometimes you have to actually paint it for a while and sometime it’s a ‘one stroke painting’ type of deal.
Also I’m not sure I understood what the Blotch authority does.

For the Painter, I imagine that the MC has a default size canvas where they can comfortable hold it ,but depending on the situation they can resize the canvas like at the manor or at the bar. As for the painting speed, I would say it’s dependent on the experience and the situation’s severity of the MC. I.E the more intense the situation the faster the MC tends to paint. I should probably include a detail where the Painter ability does give the MC abnormally high speed when it comes to painting.
As for the Blotch Authority, the MC was going to essentially attack ------- through the canvas, by creating a replica of the scene, the MC planned to blotch it which would have killed ------- Sorta like the gif in Jojo Part 3

Make a lot of sense and is more or less what I had figured, it clears things up a lot and yeah, that sounds like a detail that should get mentioned somewhere.
I had figured out the ‘voodoo doll’ painting part of it but the ‘blotching’ being the ‘kill command’ is something I wasn’t sure of.
Thanks for the answers!

No problem! I understand that describing attacks can get confusing through just text, so it’s good to get feedback on this type of stuff

Thank you for the feedback, I thought I addressed this, but seems like it slipped through the cracks, it will be fixed by the next update!

Thank you! Don’t worry AA will also go through a rollercoaster in the upcoming chapters because that is the fate of all MCs in my stories

I went in with zero expectations and ended up playing so many variations of the playthrough that I had to stop myself. And the additional alternate storyline was a really nice touch(honestly didn’t expect it to go the way it did and was half expecting it to just take a short detour and end right back merging with the main storyline).
Could definitely see the Chainsaw Man and JK inspirations. Have to ask, if contracts are made between devils and humans, like how Belle was afflicted by her devil, is there a devil trapped within us which can takeover as well? Also, Tenth can have my heart anyday.

I’m happy that you enjoyed the story, and I’m glad that you were pleasantly surprised with the AA route, it’s being well received
Also to answer your question:
Abel/Belle is an anomaly, with the background and relation to Faust, there are hints to what their true origins are sprinkled in the story. It has yet to be fully revealed, but I will say, it’s a different case for the MC. The MC is also a different type of anomaly due to their ancestry as revealed by Xiao. If you refused to use the crystal dagger/katana path in the duel against [-------], the MC would have been taken over by a monstrous form. I believe I made [------] comment that it wasn’t the MC’s Devil, but something else, for example
“Flickers of the void spark off the pest…Arbiter? No. She couldn’t have possessed the human. [-------] doesn’t sense a possession.”
To sum it up, Abel/Belle and the MC are two different anomalies in the realm of Contracts/Devils. But yeah, the average Contract user can be posessed by their own Devil given the circumstances. One of the upcoming arcs will explore that 
Also, glad that you enjoyed Tenth! I was worried people would find her boring, but I’m happy that there are Tenth enjoyers out there

This might be a bit dumb but what exactly is the AA route?
