First Update of the Year

Have a not-so-welcoming conversation with your dear sister, Yesenia.

Get schemed against and unknowingly fall into the hole dug for you—facing the wrath of Eiravelle—or weigh your words carefully and subconsciously avoid the trap.

Learn something new about Nothingness… or don’t.

Meet Jailen again, or bicker with your once ex-betrothed.

[Go against the world order and get stuck with an S-level system mission. Receive your first lore drop on the godly realms—Eiravelle and Nekrosar. Discover the second scheme laid out against you and retaliate… or play the Virgin Mary.]

Additional Plans for the Upcoming Month.

Add a second system skill: [Heartbind].

This ability will be tied to a White Lotus Path I plan to create for the MC. This route is for readers who feel the MC’s responses lean too heavily toward anger. A doormat path is not happening—even if that doormat eventually “wins” after years of scheming. Hard pass. In my eyes, it’s far better to protect the life God blessed you with than to seek validation from people who mean you no good.

Rework Caitlyn’s background.

Her current identity feels lackluster and nonsensical to the plot. The body she inhabits needs to have sufficient standing in society—that much is necessary. With Drusilla already having a thing for Yesenia, her wanting to fight the MC over Cadmus feels… meh. So yes—tweaks are coming.

Finally introduce Ada into the world.

Her identity will remain hidden. I won’t yap about it.

As for my free readers, don’t think I’ve forgotten about y’all. Your update will consist of the continuation of Chapter 4, which is roughly around 50k words. There’s no formal “what to expect” for this one, but the continuation will mostly revolve around the test matches and watching the consequences of the choice you made in Chapter 3 take effect. It will also feature deeper lore details about three of the lead characters.

Moving on, as for the V-Day special—I’ve only received 13 votes so far, with the poly romance currently in the lead. Voting will close on January 30th, so if you haven’t voted yet, please do if you’d like to see someone other than Caddy. If there are any inconsistencies with the code or any run-on sentences, please send them my way. 💁‍♀️

As always, new dates for Chapter 5 PT2 will go live in the month of February. I hope you all enjoy yet another amazing chapter of this demo, and that your week brings you love, laughter, joy, and abundance.
