Chapter 2

Inside the rattling carriage.

[3% Until World Destruction]

I glared at the system window.

To cut to the chase, I failed to correct whatever plausibility or whatnot.

The Duke was carried away by his servants, and Beatrice grumbled for a while before being dragged away by her father.

Since the host Duke had exited, the banquet naturally came to an end.

The guests were guided out of the banquet hall by servants, and I too had no choice but to leave the banquet hall mixed in among the nobles.

In short, there was no time to correct any plausibility or whatever.

No, they could have at least told me a little about how to correct it.

Suddenly telling me out of nowhere to correct the plausibility, from my perspective I could only go “What?” before it ended.

And the penalty is world destruction.

I had no idea what that meant, but it certainly didn’t sound good.

“Why are you staring?”

While I was contemplating quite seriously, a sharp voice flew from across.

The man glaring at me from beyond the system window was the heir of the Sauver County, simply put, Rene Sauver’s older brother.

His name was Louis Sauver. Age 23. His characteristic was being ill-mannered.

I reflexively almost answered “I was looking at the system window,” but shut my mouth.

Other people wouldn’t be able to see this window.

Though I didn’t want to take his side, it was natural for Louis Sauver to misunderstand.

From his perspective, it would have looked like I was glaring at him.

Of course, I was looking at the system window, so I felt wronged.

But I didn’t want to be treated as a strange person by saying “There’s some window floating in the air,” so I answered “No” and quietly lowered my eyes.

I mustn’t forget that this guy, though he appears gentlemanly on the surface, is actually a psycho who abuses his younger sister.

I stared at the floor and waited only for our arrival at the manor.

Once we arrive at the manor, I should lock myself in my room and not come out.

How much time had passed like that?

I felt the carriage come to a stop.

I waited until Louis got off, and only after he entered the manor did I carefully step down from the carriage.

What a truly suffocating family.

I passed by the servants who had come to greet us and climbed the stairs.

And as soon as I entered my room, I closed the door and pressed the window that read [3% Until World Destruction].

I thought nothing would come up.

[3% Until World Destruction

Every time plausibility crumbles, this world’s destruction approaches! You must prevent the world’s destruction by correcting the collapsed plausibility.

※How do you correct plausibility?

The method to correct collapsed plausibility is simple. Find and fix ‘differences from the original work 【Flower of the Glass Greenhouse】’ in reality.]

“What.”

Something really did come up.

I quickly scanned the window spread before my eyes.

Making my worries seem pointless, the method to correct collapsed plausibility was surprisingly simple.

In short, find differences from the original and fix them, that was it.

Let me recall the situation at the banquet hall.

In that situation, the only ‘difference from the original’ was the female protagonist Beatrice.

Beatrice was indeed a little, no, quite different from the original.

Wait, follow the original? Then Beatrice and I have to die?

As I thought that—

[Incorrect answer.]

—a system window appeared.

What. If you’re going to tell me it’s wrong, at least tell me the right answer too.

As I stared at the system window and pondered, I soon recalled the contents of the IF side story and clapped my hands together.

Right, there was an IF side story that ended with a decent happy ending rather than a miserable sad ending!

The IF side story was about the three male leads who had abnormally obsessed over Beatrice suddenly coming to their senses, regretting, and becoming doormats.

Moreover, the IF side story had three volumes total, with routes where Beatrice ended up with the Duke, Crown Prince, and Mage respectively.

It was great being able to choose and read according to taste.

Even better, in all three volumes of the IF side story, neither Beatrice nor I die!

Anyway, since the IF side story is also part of the original work, I should follow that, I thought, and immediately—

[Correct answer.]

—a system window appeared.

Having gotten the right answer, I examined the system window with a much lighter heart before flopping down on the bed.

If they had told me to follow the main story, I would have had to die someday too, but since it’s the IF side story, I was relieved.

This seems doable?

To fix Beatrice according to the original, I first need to find out why she became strange.

I thought quietly but realized there was no answer, so I decided to use my position as a childhood friend—though it’s a bit funny to call it that—to go visit her directly.

“First I should send a letter saying I’ll visit?”

I bolted up from my seat and rushed straight to the desk to pull out letter paper.

Then I wrote in elegant handwriting, ‘I plan to visit around 1 o’clock tomorrow, so please be aware.’

After sealing the letter and firmly stamping it with the family crest, I rang the call bell and a maid who had been waiting outside the door quietly entered.

“Send this to the Lockwood house.”

“Yes, Miss.”

Having sent the letter saying I would visit, now I just had to wait for tomorrow to come.

Despite it being spring, my room was freezing cold. It was because the embers burning in the fireplace had almost died out.

I got up from my seat and stood in front of the fireplace to revive the embers myself instead of calling a maid.

But there wasn’t a single piece of firewood to throw in.

My room, or more precisely Rene Sauver’s room, rarely received timely supplies of firewood.

The reason was simple. The people in this household hated me, that is, Rene.

Louis Sauver prevented firewood from being supplied to my room.

Thinking I might freeze to death at this rate, I tried to bribe the maids with the jewels I had, but the maids only followed the words of Louis, the real power in the Count’s mansion.

I flopped down on the bed, wrapped myself in blankets like a caterpillar, and looked up at the ceiling.

The window reading [3% Until World Destruction] didn’t disappear and still flickered before my eyes.

I guess I’m supposed to keep looking at it to maintain vigilance.

[Correct answer.]

Really, what an amusing system window.

I roughly pulled out the jewels decorating my hair, placed them on the nightstand, then buried my head in the blankets.

I should take off my dress and remove my makeup, but I was too tired right now.

I’ll just rest a little and then get up.

Making my resolution seem pointless, I fell deeply asleep in less than five minutes.

Sorry to the maids who must have been waiting.

No, actually I’m not sorry.

Come to think of it, you all ignore Rene too.

I’m not sorry at all, you lot.

* * *

If she were an ordinary noble young lady, she would have to say “I’ll be going now” to her parents when going out, but unfortunately, Rene Sauver and her father didn’t have a good relationship.

So there was no need to painfully tell them where I was going.

I boarded the carriage accompanied by my escort knight, Count Ulver.

Honestly, I would have preferred to move around comfortably alone, but as a noble young lady in name, I couldn’t go out alone.

Count Ulver, the epitome of laziness, certainly wouldn’t tattle to the Count about wherever I went.

In that sense, Count Ulver was perfect as my escort knight.

Anyway, after riding the carriage for some time, the Rockwood Mansion began to come into view.

That day, after Beatrice caused a scene at the spring banquet, the Count officially announced that his daughter was ill.

The nobles who witnessed Beatrice’s mad behavior all whispered in unison that she had become strange somehow, so the rumor spread as an established fact.

That Beatrice had gone insane.

Soon after, when the carriage arrived at the marquis’s estate, I nervously took Count Ulver’s hand and stepped down from the carriage.

I was officially a guest who had come to visit a sick friend, but in reality, I had come to investigate the reason why the female protagonist had become strange.

A servant who had been waiting opened the door for us to enter inside.

Rumble—.

Suddenly, a sound like thunder and lightning striking from the sky echoed through the air.

Was it going to rain?

Not having brought an umbrella, I thought ‘how troublesome’ and looked up at the sky, only to freeze in place instantly.

The sky was red.

More precisely, the sky was torn open in a dark red gash, as if someone had slashed it with a sword.
