When he/she tries to steal from the treasury? Martial should be 5

I tried to play the old demo to see if I can get some context and some help in the mechanics since I’m new to this and I must say…

Wow

I hope to see how the story unravels itself and in time, also get my feelings sorted out on which RO to choose. Otherwise, I’ll be conflicted with Melissa and Soph- I mean Alythia.
How does the stat mechanics work tho? Do you max out only one or does it help to balance them all?

Ay yes the name change
It felt weird having a character with the same name so gotta do what i gotta do~

Each stat will have a max of 50 and reaching it will achieve several achievements. Stats should be raised as high as possible in the early chapters to ensure success in scheming and warfare in the future chapters.

Yes but there’s another way (a long one too).You could be sweet to Marcus like taking care of him, asking his feelings and etc since he has a mother complex

Next up on ABC:

Wife Swap: Darvis

Two brothers are interested in what is happening in the other’s bedroom! What happens next? Find out, after this commercial break!

…

Meet Reinhardt and Marcus. The two oldest sons of the king of Darvis. Reinhardt, the younger brother, has the hots for Melissa, his childhood friend and crush. However, she was given in an arranged marriage to his older brother. How antiquated!

Meet Marcus, a slightly paranoid kid who thinks that everyone is out to get him! Marcus loves swordplay (all manner of it ladies) and has got the hankering for something, or someone, exotic.

That someone happens to be his younger brother’s wife, Sophi - er, Alythia! This little firebrand is the princess of Lucraex who loves her best friend, books and dislikes anything in the kingdom of Darvis. At least until she comes across a northern beefcake.

So, at the encouragement of their wives, these two brothers have decide to stick it to their dad and swap wives for 48 hours! What will happen? We’ll have to find out once the story progresses past the old dinner scene!

(This is my official “welcome back” to Sophia. Your story’s been missed. )

Damn. The knight was my second fave. Guess I’m stuck pity zoning sophia and acting like a husband out of a sense of responsibility while take a certain theif as my lover.

Disciple · 2019-09-03T20:46:24.138Z

Oh. I was to busy yesterday to try the demo. I like the name change. Much more mideval princessy.

Shazy333 · 2019-09-04T06:52:20.471Z

"I jus wanted Melissa…"

NOX · 2019-09-04T07:54:06.512Z

Sorry to say this but…
When I read the old demo I saw that there is a possibility that Melissa will die in this book or the sequel. Yeah I know. Bummer.

anon4518890 · 2019-09-04T09:46:49.054Z

still killing me with Melissa marrying our “bro”

DUNGEON_MASTER · 2019-09-04T10:17:36.051Z

Let’s go to the old ways with all the RO wars. Mwahahahah

Sophia:

It’s one of my main concerns since having childhood scenes was a great idea to make the readers bond with the characters. However, the plot really is about the arranged marriage. When I wrote each childhood scene, it pressured me to make every event as great as possible despite being not the main focus of the game. I do understand and tbh I preferred the previous version too, but I’d rather not burn myself out. I’ll do my best making future chapters great tho! Despite all the major revisions, I still hope that you guys stick around until the very end.

Yeah, but the childhood scenes in the previous version was fine tho. You could have just copy and pasted it.
If you prefer the previous one, why did you change it? You said you didn’t want to burn yourself out… So why did ya have to change stuff?
You could have just taken the old demo and expanded upon it.
No hate tho.

Sophia · 2019-09-04T11:49:06.610Z

saikiK:

You could have just copy and pasted it.

Then I’ll also have to add childhood scenes to the other POV since it would be unfair to the readers who prefer the princess storyline.

Like, the Prince POV had childhood scenes ranging from 1 month old to 16 years old. For me, both POVs must have equal opportunities, so I felt the need to include all ages in the Princess POV just like the Prince POV.

saikiK:

You could have just taken the old demo and expanded upon it.

Oh, actually, I’m doing that right now…
Readers commented on how they bonded more with Melissa on the old version, so I copy and pasted some scenes.

saikiK:

None taken bro

What are you talking about? All characters will die.

well the main point of the prince childhood scenes is to build up the relationship with melissa. would the princess childhood scenes build up relationship with clithus or something? cause character development and interactions for melissa is what makes prince childhood essential, but i don’t know if there’s anything from the princess childhood that makes it essential.
