Grimoire Alchemist is a dating sim popular among both boys and girls in Japan. The player’s rival in love, Claudia Ellington, is jokingly called the “Villainess of a Thousand Deaths.” But this alias of hers is actually no joke; she really does die a thousand times in the game!

Determined to escape the dire fate she has in store for her, Diehard Grimoire Alchemist Fan #1 (now the reincarnated Claudia) does everything she can to avoid entering the love interests’ romance routes in an attempt to separate herself from the game’s storyline and save her own skin.

Apparently, this looks like the fantasy world from the Otome game that I used to play in my previous life. “Me”, Altrea, is the lively rival character who challenged the heroine again and again until she/I received painful backlashes. Like only chasing to have the engagement cancelled in the Magic Academy, even breaking and taking over the Duke’s house. For all these eventful stuff, please just give me a break! Or should I say the heart of the game’s heroine is too scarily impregnable! Living differently with the game’s knowledge? Dating the love interests in real life is super troublesome, so I refuse!
