Fish-flavored cheese

Traversing to another world, Lin En is captured right from the start.
The captor is the antagonist princess from the original work, intending to control him by using him for hypnosis experiments.
In a critical moment, Lin En comes up with a quick-witted plan, feigning the success of the experiment and deceiving her with his acting skills.
But this was only a temporary measure.
Because in the original story, her ending is very tragic, and none of her associates meet good ends.
Hence, Lin En must pretend to be under the hypnosis while secretly being ready to flee at any moment.
But gradually things start to take an unexpected turn.

The Princess's Diary
[The experiment was a success!]
[As the sole specimen, I've decided to keep him by my side.]
[Due to the curse mark on my face, I am loathed by the public, but he says I'm beautiful.]
[I'm happy because people tell the truth when hypnotized.]
[Alone with him, I impulsively kissed him.]
[The feeling was strange and made me lose my composure, fortunately, he won't retain any memory of it after the hypnosis is lifted.]
[So, it's okay to be a bit bolder, right?]

Stop Hypnotizing Me, Antagonist Princess!

As the last Imperial Princess called upon, Ivyst, led by a Court Maid, slowly made her way into Elloch Palace.


At that very moment, Saint Laurent VI sat solemnly on his throne.


Sensing Ivyst's presence, he gathered his wandering thoughts, and his originally deep gaze sharpened once again.


The gazes of father and daughter intersected in midair, each measuring the other with a glance.


Ivyst snorted coldly, quite annoyed, and averted her gaze.


Clearly, this was not the interaction of a typical father and daughter.


Saint Laurent VI, however, remained expressionless.


After a long silence, he slowly began speaking, "Recently... how have you been?"


Clearly, he was inquiring about Ivyst's current physical condition.


Yet, hearing such seemingly caring words, Ivyst showed no touch of emotion and even scoffed at the notion.
