まだまだ謎

It's still a mystery

This review contains spoilers. 7巻まで読了。クリフォードがほんの少しずつだけど確実にオクタヴィアに特別な感情があるのが伝わってきてたまりません。話もまだ謎だらけだけど各キャラごとの過去が少しずつ明らかになってきて、これがどう繋がっていくか楽しみ。いろんな視点からの話も好きです。漫画版も読むとより頭にスッと入ってきておすすめです。

This review contains spoilers. I've read up to 7 volumes. Little by little, it's unbearable that Clifford definitely has special feelings for Octavia. The story is still full of mysteries, but the past of each character is gradually being revealed, and I'm looking forward to seeing how this connects. I also like stories from various perspectives. It comes right into my head when I read the comic version, so I recommend it.

主人公を応援したくなります！

I want to support the main character!

This review contains spoilers. オタクで腐女子だけど、物語のご都合主義の為に使われるのはイヤ！という気持ちには共感できます。あくまで趣味嗜好として楽しんでいた世界が現実になってしまったら、かなりしんどいということがリアルに伝わるし、なんとか「使われる立場」から抜け出そうと頑張っていることが、周りからは勘違いされる王道や王族や物語の謎に巻き込まれてしまったりと主人公の苦労は絶えませんが、主従モノとしても転生モノとしても楽しく応援しながら読ませてもらっています。

This review contains spoilers. She's an otaku and a rotten girl, but I don't like it being used for convenience in stories! I can sympathize with that feeling. Once the world that I had enjoyed as a hobby becomes a reality, it is realistically conveyed that it is pretty tough, and the main character's hardships are constant, as he is trying to somehow get out of the “position of being used,” and getting caught up in the mystery of the royal road, royalty, and story that are misunderstood by those around him, but I enjoy reading it while cheering for it both as a main servant and as a reincarnation.

BLの世界あるあるの子供不足で主人公が子供を産まなければならないと、内容がかなり現実的。主人公が恋人をどう作るのか気になる。

When the main character in BL World Aru Aru has to give birth to a child due to lack of children, the content is quite realistic. I'm curious about how the main character makes a lover.

BLの世界に飛び込む腐女子！

A rotten girl who jumps into the BL world!

This review contains spoilers. 男と男の恋愛が至上の世界に腐女子一匹！颯爽とご都合主義を引っ提げて大活躍する物語です。やっぱり恋です。恋が命の花一輪、散らせるもんなら・・・

This review contains spoilers. In a world where the romance between man and man is supreme, there is only one rotten girl! It's a story that plays a big role by promoting brilliance and the principle of expediency. After all, it's love. If love were to scatter the flower of life...

1巻のみ

1 volume only

とても気になるところで終わってしまいました。貴族や王族が男性同士で結婚となるといろいろと問題が。跡継ぎとか、ソレより前に恋人同士になる辺りが、ヒロインの目線もあるのかもだけれど、何だか不愉快不可解

It ended up being very worrisome. When it comes to marriage between men in the aristocracy or royal family, there are various problems. There may also be a heroine's point of view when heirs or something like that become lovers before that, but it's kind of uncomfortable and inexplicable

まさかここで終わるとは……

I never thought it would end here...

This review contains spoilers. 今回も最高の内容でした。次巻が気になって気になってしょうがないです。今までの巻は恋愛よりもその他の、事件とかそっちの謎の方がメインで気になっていたけども。今回は恋愛面の方が1番メインで気になってドキドキでした！色々な謎も気になるけど、2人のこれからの関係も気になってしょうがないです。早く次巻が読みたーい！！

This review contains spoilers. The content was excellent this time too. I can't help but be worried about the next volume. Until now, the volumes up until now were mainly about other incidents and mysteries over there rather than romance, so I was curious. This time, the love side was the main one, and I was so excited! I'm worried about various mysteries, but I can't help but be concerned about the future relationship between the two. I want to read the next volume soon!!

やっとぉぉぉ

at last

This review contains spoilers. やっと！やっとだ！途中まではもう若干絶望の淵にいましたが、最後の最後でご褒美まで?ありがたや。ラスト近くのイラストにはもうガッツポーズです。ようやくラブコメが始まった。最近は途中脱落の本が多かったけど、続くにつれて続きが楽しみになる本は今はこれくらい。次巻も無事でますように。そしてクリフォードと無自覚イチャイチャしてほしい✊2025/3/147巻でました。今回作者さんが事前に言ってたとおり、挿絵がありません。めちゃくちゃ挿絵みたかったよ…特にヤールシュとラスト。ラストは今まではなんだったのだろうと言うくらいドキドキな展開でした。まぁあれ以上は無いだろうけども。なんとも続きが気になるラストなので、早めに続巻出るのを期待したい…！

This review contains spoilers. at last! at last! I was already on the edge of despair until halfway through, but until the last minute, until the reward? Thank you very much. It's already fist pose for the illustration near the end. The romantic comedy has finally started. Recently, there have been a lot of books that have been dropped halfway through, but now there are only so many books that I can look forward to continuing as they continue. I hope the next volume is safe too. And I want you to unconsciously flirt with Clifford ✊ 2025/3/147 volume came out. As the author said beforehand this time, there are no illustrations. I really wanted to do illustrations... especially Jarsch and Rust. It was such an exciting development that I was wondering what the last one had been until now. Well, there's probably nothing better than that, though. It's the last one I'm really worried about, so I want to look forward to the next volume coming out soon...!

良い。

good.

Web版更新待ちの中、各視点のお話など細々と追加されてる描写があると聞き小説購入。やっぱり面白い！主人公の性格・2人の距離感が兎に角ツボです。これからも更新心待ちにしたいと思います。

While waiting for the web version to be updated, I heard that details such as stories from each point of view had been added and bought the novel. After all, it's interesting! The main character's personality and sense of distance between the two are horned pressure points on rabbits. I would like to look forward to future updates.

次巻続きます！

Next volume continues!

This review contains spoilers. オクタヴィアの王女としてのふるまいと、現代素直女子の思考が、読者からははっきりしてて、そのズレも楽しいのに、作中人物には完璧な腹黒王女にも見えるという楽しさもあります。世界は人の思うようにならず、その中で抗うことの難しさと、望むものを手に入れようとする苦しさも読み取れて4巻まで追っかけております。ラブもがっつり入れてこなくて、ほんのり匂わせているのがまた好みです。もどかしいけど、そのもどかしさがよいです！早く続刊お願いしたいと思います。

This review contains spoilers. Octavia's behavior as a princess and the thoughts of a modern honest girl are clear from readers, and even though that gap is fun, there is also the fun of looking like a perfect dark princess for the characters in the story. The world doesn't turn out the way people want it, and I've been able to read the difficulty of resisting it and the pain of trying to get what you want, and I've been chasing it all the way to volume 4. I also like the fact that it doesn't have a lot of love in it, and it has a slight smell. It's frustrating, but that frustration is good! I would like to ask for the next publication soon.

改稿部分最高！でも目次を改良して欲しい

The revised part is the best! But I want the table of contents to be improved

This review contains spoilers. 小説家になろうでも読んでいますが、お金を払いたいと思い購入しています。表現など細かい改稿で、感情などが分かりやすくなっているのにあわせて萌えポイントも増加！リーシュランの花飾りのくだりはニヤニヤしてしまいました。（真意は明かされてないので分かりませんが）ただ、目次が本編とあとがきの２つしかない…！書き下ろしにあたるような小話には追加して欲しいです。

This review contains spoilers. I'm reading it even if I want to be a novelist, but I bought it because I wanted to pay money. Detailed revisions such as expressions have made it easier to understand emotions, etc., and the number of moe points has also increased! I smirked at the Richelin flower decoration. (The true meaning hasn't been revealed, so I don't know) However, there are only 2 tables of contents: the main story and the afterword...! I want them to be added to small stories that correspond to the ones I've just written down.

4巻の発売ありがとうございます！

Thank you for releasing volume 4!

4巻の発売おめでとうございます。そしてありがとうございます。一時期はもうこのまま続きは読めないのではないかと諦めていたので続刊を出して頂けてとても嬉しいです。ヒロインが勘違いされつつも頑張っている姿を見ると応援したくなります。1巻からずっと好感が持てるヒロインで安心して読ませて頂きました。ヒーローとの距離が近づいた絡みも増えてきてこれからの展開もとても楽しみです。次巻を出してくださるのを心待ちにしております。

Congratulations on the release of volume 4. And thank you so much. I had given up for a while thinking that I wouldn't be able to continue reading it like this, so I'm very happy that the sequel came out. I want to cheer when I see the heroine doing her best even though she has been misunderstood. I was able to read it with peace of mind because it was a heroine that I had a good impression of ever since volume 1. The number of entanglements that have gotten closer to the hero has also increased, and I'm really looking forward to future developments. I'm looking forward to the next volume coming out.

楽しい～

It's fun~

楽しいです。クリフォードが好きです。たまーに別視点のお話をはさみつつ、基本はヒロインの一人称で進みます。そこかしこに謎がちらばってて、読みごたえもあります。作者様もあとがきで書かれてましたが、ラブコメのつもりが…結構な本格的ファンタジーです。ただ、新刊でるまでが長い！とってもとっても楽しみにしてますので、次刊が早くでますように願っております。

It's fun. I like Clifford. While occasionally adhering to stories from a different point of view, I basically proceed in the first person of the heroine. Mysteries are scattered all over the place, and it's also worth reading. The author also wrote it as an afterword, but the intention is that it's a romantic comedy... it's pretty authentic fantasy. However, it's a long time until the new publication! I'm really, really looking forward to it, so I hope the next edition comes out soon.

新刊出るペースが遅いのがつらい

It's hard that the pace of new publications is slow

コミックスから入り、原作を買い、何度も何度も読んで新刊を待ちました。やっと新刊出た！なにこれ！ページ数少ない！1時間で読破してしまいました。3巻から2年でこのページ数とは……。また待たされるんだろうか。私が死ぬまでに完結してくれるんだろうか。追記ちょこちょこwebでは更新されてるので、気長に待ってください。待つ価値のある面白さです。

I started with comics, bought the original story, read it over and over again, and waited for the new edition. The new issue is finally out! what is this! Few pages! I read it through in 1 hour. What is the number of pages in 2 years since volume 3... Will they have to wait again? Will it be completed before I die? Postscript: It's being updated here and there on the web, so please wait patiently. It's fun worth the wait.

続きが待ち遠しい…

I can't wait for the continuation...

This review contains spoilers. ヒロインの行動が何やら含みを持っているかのように周囲が勘違いし、物語が展開していく様が面白いです。ヒロインのどんな行動に含みを持たせるかも。え、その行動をそう判断しちゃいますかと?。それと、王族としての振舞いとのギャップも併せて、ヒロインが可愛いです。3巻まで読みましたが、BLの表現もきつくないですし、この先も匂わせ程度の表現で留めて欲しいです。王家の秘密、ヒロインの恋愛事情等、これらをどう決着を付けていくのか気になる上にBL濃度が高まると視点がごちゃごちゃしそうなので…。なろうでの連載と共に続きが待たれます。

This review contains spoilers. It's interesting how the story unfolds as if the heroine's actions had some kind of implication. What actions of the heroine might be included in it. Eh, I wonder if that behavior would be judged that way? Also, there is a gap between acting as a royal family, and the heroine is cute. I've read up to 3 volumes, and the BL expressions aren't hard, and I want them to keep it smelling like it. I'm worried about how to settle these things, such as the secrets of the royal family, the heroine's love affairs, etc., and my point of view seems to be a mess when the BL concentration increases... The continuation is awaited along with the serialization in Narou.
