Chapter 5: System Task, Released!

Damn it…

Why? Why did she have to transmigrate now, at the point where the ending couldn’t be changed anymore? If only she had

been thrown into the beginning of the game… then maybe—just maybe—Olivianne would’ve had a chance to change this

tragic fate!

But… now that it had come to this, and as someone who had cleared the game countless times, Olivianne understood:

there was no more hope. The malicious “God” of this world had already cast the curse. This was the tragic destiny the

male protagonist could never escape from. Honestly… Bad End 1 was already one of the better endings.

At the very least, he still stays alive, doesn’t he?

And he wouldn’t have to keep enduring the humiliation from the three heroines. He also wouldn’t have to suffer through

those hundreds of disgusting NTR CG scenes with minotaurs…

Besides, even though Bad End 1 ends with Gawain sitting silently in prison, the game didn’t show what came after that.

But in other branches of the story, during the final war arc, prisoners are rounded up and forced into the army. So, by that

time, Gawain might actually be freed again.

If the war ends in victory… maybe he could leave all this behind, find a quiet little village in the countryside, and live out

his days alone. He might never love again, but at least he could live a simple, peaceful life as a single farmer…

That would definitely be better than being tortured to death bit by bit by the three heroines who took advantage of the last

bits of his love…

Olivianne lowered her head. Though anger still burned in her heart, what she felt more now was numbness… and despair.

After three days and nights of mental suffering, her will to resist this twisted world was completely extinguished.

Besides, the body she had transmigrated into wasn’t Gawain. She was just… a random, insignificant background

character.

If she stayed far away from the protagonist’s group and left them to their own drama, she could simply be an observer.

With her nearly god-level knowledge of this game world, she could make money, grow stronger, and succeed here on her

own. She was confident—without a doubt—that she could carve out a future for herself in this fantasy world. Maybe not

become the strongest person ever, but at least… she’d never again live like the pathetic shut-in otaku she was in her past

life!

But if she lost her mind now and ran to get involved with the protagonist… and even tried to “save” the three heroines?

Not only would that look extremely suspicious (since she and Gawain had never interacted before), but worse…

It would definitely attract the attention of that blonde bastard, Cassius!

Even though she didn’t know exactly how he had managed to corrupt the three heroines, she was sure—he could target

her next too… Just imagining herself being turned into Cassius’s toy made Olivianne’s whole body shiver with disgust…

In short, her current attitude was: screw this!

Absolutely do not get involved with the protagonist!

Logically speaking, everything Olivianne had just thought made perfect sense. Getting involved with the protagonist’s

group right now would only bring her trouble. Until she became stronger, it was just too risky.

But…

The blue-haired loli slowly looked up again, her eyes falling on the idiot hero. That 190cm tall, dumb, clueless guy was

still standing there… his eyes brimming with unshed tears as he looked at the black-haired girl snuggling sweetly in

Cassius’s arms.

Meimel… the childhood friend who had once said she would marry him… his first love… Why? Why had she betrayed

him? Was it… was it really because he was just that bad in that way?

Sigh. Olivianne remembered what he was thinking. This stupid Gawain… Crying? What good would that do? Did he really

think showing his sadness would make the three heroines feel sorry for him and come back? Hah… it only made him look

weak. It gave Cassius, the heroines, and the surrounding spectators more reasons to mock him.

He always liked to take the blame onto himself. But being betrayed like this? That’s definitely… not your fault!

Even though she had decided—absolutely not to get involved with the protagonist’s group—right now, looking at

Gawain… Olivianne couldn’t help but feel a twinge of pity.

No. She shouldn’t care. She had already decided to stay out of it.

She cursed herself silently in her mind for being so soft-hearted. But what she didn’t know was that in this world, there

was never a shortage of people just waiting to shove others into the fire for fun.

Just as the blue-haired loli shut her eyes tight and tried to hypnotize herself—“this disgusting NTR minotaur world has

nothing to do with me”—suddenly, the floating chat window in her mind lit up again.

【True heroine, get in there! NOW!】

【Screw this, someone punch that blonde bastard and those three trash girls!】

【Don’t be such a coward! Just because the hero can’t change his fate doesn’t mean you can’t!】

【If you don’t act, we’re calling you Olivianne the Coward!】

【How can you just watch your husband get bullied by his exes and that sleazebag?!】

【Forget about getting strong later—this is urgent right now!】

this is…

The blue-haired loli twitched her lips helplessly. So, fine, she had gotten a handle on the whole transmigration thing… but

what the hell was this weird-ass chatroom supposed to be?!

That’s right—the only thing she still couldn’t figure out was the strange chatroom. It had appeared the moment she

transmigrated. And even now, Olivianne had no clue what it had to do with her. The only thing she had figured out was…

There were a bunch of users constantly sending messages in this live-chat-style interface, mostly like what she was seeing

now: mocking, complaining, or stirring up chaos.

Who were these viewers? Where did they come from? Why did this world even have a place for them to watch and

comment like this?

She didn’t know any of it.

But one thing was certain… These people were all watching this world from her first-person perspective—and somehow,

they could read her thoughts?

And what was with them constantly calling her “the true heroine”? Who the hell said she was the true heroine?! Stop

forcing me into a couple with the protagonist just because I’m a side character who happened to be transmigrated here!!

What the hell was that sound?

A weird robotic voice echoed in the air. The blue-haired loli scratched her head. Did she just hallucinate?

No… wait!

She quickly pulled up the floating chat screen with her mind. And sure enough—there it was: a line of red glowing system

text?!
