Trapped in a Dating Sim: The World of Otome Games Is Tough for Mobs

This sucks!

I'm the supreme commander? We're so screwed!

This nation has a serious lack of qualified personnel!

The situation certainly is bad.

However, you brought it all upon yourself.

It's actually impressive how badly you screwed yourself over.

Whatever. What's the principality up to?

They're still approaching the capital.

They're likely matching the titans' speed,

so they're moving slowly, but they'll arrive in less than 24 hours.

It's almost time.

Prioritize evacuating the citizens.

Use anyone who can operate a ship.

Oh, right. Send Daniel and the other guys to help.

I'd feel bad about sending them to the front lines.

Someone else will just die instead.

Don't say that.

I'll have the military command documents written up right away.

First, we need the royal ship.

If we can't get that working, we'll lose.

You Can't Quantify Love!

Why me?

I told you, you guys are our best shot at operating the royal ship.

Still...

It's bigger than I thought.

Still smaller than the Partner.

It looks strong.

Still less dependable than the Partner.

The design is nice.

Still less beautiful and functional than the Partner.

What is he, a doting dad?

Your familiar sure loves to brag.

H-He just doesn't like to lose.

But not even he can operate this ship.

It can only be operated using the power of love.

He's right. In the game, the ship could only be used

if your relationship score with the romantic interests was high enough.

What's that?

Behold.

What is this?

When people who truly love each other stand there,

the royal ship recognizes them as its owner and activates its power.

What? That wasn't in the game.

It must be fate that brought all these descendants of heroes here.

Come to think of it,

their ancestors were heroes who helped establish the kingdom.

They were accompanied by Livia's ancestor, the first Saint.

I skipped that part because I didn't care.

I should've actually read it.

The royal ship will only recognize descendants of heroes.

There's nothing for you to do this time.

This king seems hostile for some reason.

Does he hate me?

All I did was beat up his son and hit on his wife.

Oh, wait. Of course he hates me.

I trust you're prepared.

You'll find using this device isn't as simple as it seems.

We'll show you how to use it first. Ready, Your Majesty?

Y-Yes. Perhaps it'll work this time.

Man: 25 points! Woman: 58 points!

Disappointing!

Huh?

25 points?! Seriously?

That's stranger or acquaintance level!

W-Well, you only got 58 points!

I-It quantifies love?

It's probably similar to a practical joke device.

Apparently, wealthy old humans built this ship for amusement.

Built before I was,

it was used only once for a honeymoon before being abandoned.

Its registered name is "Vice."

Darling.

What?

I love you.

I love you, too.

Oh, my.

I love you.

Oh, please.

I love you.

H-How did it end up in the royals' hands?

The details are unclear.

Additionally, the couple divorced after two years.

Who cares?

You cold-hearted jerk! Good-for-nothing!

Jerk, jerk, jerk!

A-Any volunteers? Can anyone prove their love?

Marie, come with me.

H-Huh?!

I know how you feel.

I don't blame you for thinking we're worthless,

but love shines in the face of adversity.

Julius...

It's time to demonstrate our love!

Man: 90 points! Woman: 17 points!

Extremely disappointing!

If this is the result, then I accept it.

However, I swear to you...

I'll win you over someday.

What are you saying? You got a 17.

How optimistic are you?

Your Highness, unfortunately, that day will never come,

because I will prove my love for Ms. Marie now.

Man: 89 points! Woman: 12 points!

Too bad, so sad!

Was that last bit necessary?!

I'm disappointed I lost to His Highness,

but Ms. Marie, I'll win you over someday.

Move! I'm next!

Man: 91 points! Woman: 22 points!

All that spirit for nothing!

Stop with the closing commentary!

Marie, I won't give up!

O-Okay.

It's my turn.

Since I fought so hard on our school trip, surely—

Man: 87 points! Woman: 31 points!

The ultimate betrayal!

I'm last.

As the most beautiful man, I'm certain Marie and I—

Man: 98 points! Woman: 9 points!

You're delusional! Get out of here!

I can't keep watching this.

Th-That's the lowest score yet.

I-It's not what you think! Listen to me!

You don't need to say anything, Marie.

We know we're not currently worthy of your love, but...

We won't give up!

Your love will be ours someday!

Listen to me!

The boys' scores are so high, but yours...

Even when we met, it was less than 40.

You expect love from a political marriage?

I wish I could've married for love instead.

Well, so do I! You're all talk, you snob!

What was that, you black-hearted hag?!

What?! You're just pretending to be younger than you are, you crafty old king!

Well, that relationship's beyond repair.

And the king's just vain, huh?

Leon, that ship is powered by love, right?

Mr. Leon, that ship is powered by love, right?

Y-Yeah, apparently, but love is complicated.

We'll have to ask Luxion to...

What? Why are you grabbing me?

Wait, no! I don't want to get on that thing!

Please step on, Mr. Leon.

This will make things clear.

No more dodging.

No way! This is only funny when you're not involved!

I'm not as mentally strong as Julius and his friends!

I won't be able to handle a brutal result!

I'll be embarrassed if my score is too high.

Get a room!

But he's never given us a straight answer.

And it'll be awkward if it's too low.

How could you?

Seriously?

What if we all put up miserable results?!

Well, this is awful! Your relationships are ice cold!

Hell no!

Come on, guys! You can't quantify love!

Luxion, do something!

I don't believe you should be so hypocritical.

Shut up, traitor!

This is perfect. Your grin was just starting to annoy me.

Get up there.

No!

It's okay.

It'll be over soon.

Bartfort!

Prepare yourself!

Get up there!

Damn it!

You're all gonna pay for this!

Congratulations!

You both score 120 points!

You're bound by true love!

Wha?

Angie...

Livia, you...

I-I'm glad.

So am I.

I hadn't considered a same-sex couple, but I suppose this works.

Honestly, I'd gotten my hopes up.

I was sure I'd do better than the idiots.

I'm so happy.
