Vol 2·Mar 2021

Leon doesn't want a leading role. Too bad for him. Between his new promotion and the attention of protagonist Livia and villainess Angie, no one will leave him alone--least of all the prince and his lordly gang. As Leon struggles for independence, tension grows with his allies. But soon, they'll have to band together to face the greatest danger imaginable, one that threatens to destabilize the game itself.

Vol 3·Jul 2021

Leon keeps earning accolades and climbing the social ladder--much to his chagrin. Now other nobles view him as a threat, and his political rivals pull out all the stops to lock him up and throw away the key. But that's just what the Principality of Fanoss wants. With Holfort Kingdom's greatest power behind bars, the Principality launches an unprecedented attack. Now Leon must figure out how to free himself--and whether his country is even worth saving.

Vol 4·Nov 2021

Leon heads off to study abroad in the Alzer Republic, accompanied by Marie and the idiot brigade (a.k.a., her love interests). Leon's just praying that Marie keeps her hands to herself--if she meddles in the plot of the sequel, she may force him to save the world. Again. Unfortunately, the original story has already flown off the rails. The new protagonist has a twin sister who wasn't in the game! On top of that, some high and mighty noble's son, backed by the power of Alzer's Holy Tree, is baring his fangs at Leon. If Leon ever wants that quiet country life, he'll have to seize the reins of a whole new story.

Vol 5·Jan 2022

Against his wishes, Leon keeps getting pulled deeper and deeper into these otome game plotlines. Somehow, he's ended up with the Guardian Crest of the Sacred Tree, which is supposed to manifest on the hand of the chosen love interest. But Noelle, the new protagonist, couldn't possibly feel such things for him, right? He's going to have to figure it out fast, or Noelle might be swept away by men with far darker intentions for the Alzer Republic...and for Noelle herself.

Vol 6·May 2022

Leon may have saved Noelle from a life in chains, but her future is far from certain. Bound as she is to the Sacred Tree Sapling, she is a prize for every nation in the world. Worse, Leon's fiancees disagree over her fate: does Noelle have a responsibility to serve a nation, or should she be free to choose how she lives her life? Meanwhile, Noelle's own villainess, Louise, faces the same dire question. It seems the Sacred Tree has demanded a sacrifice in exchange for continuing to protect the Republic--and it wants Louise. It's up to Leon to intervene before all the women in his life succumb to the dark fates the otome game demands.
