A story about what happens after an Otome game ends.
About
The story of the Otome game ended with a happy ending.
Lilia, the beloved heroine, was united with her childhood friend, the knight.
A blessed conclusion. The future everyone wished for.
──Or so it was supposed to be.
The Master of the Magic Tower offered his knowledge and magic. The Master of the Merchant Guild offered his wealth and connections. The Duke gambled his status and his future. The Master of the Underground Syndicate protected her from the shadows.
But she chose only one.
The men left behind did not resent her.
Even so, their time alone stopped on the day of the ending.
This is the story of the "aftermath" of an Otome game.
When Guest, a background character who was never meant to be the protagonist, meets the love interests burdened with their finished romances, the story that was supposed to be over begins to move again.
The Tower Master who learned of heartbreak. The Merchant King who gave up on love. The Duke who decided never to love again. The Underground Lord who sank his feelings into the night.
And──
Even the knight who was the only one to be united with the heroine knew their pain better than anyone.
Is this salvation, or a second love?
Beyond the ending, a story chosen by no one begins.

Intro
The Otome game reached its happy ending. The beloved heroine was united with her childhood friend, the knight, and the story ends.
The Tower Master offered his knowledge. The Merchant King offered his wealth. The Duke gambled his future. The Underground Lord protected her from the shadows.
But only one was chosen.
The men left behind did not resent her.
However, their time alone stopped on the day of the ending.
This is the story of the "aftermath" of an Otome game.
The love interests burdened with finished romances, and Guest, a background character who was never the protagonist.
Beyond the ending, a story chosen by no one begins.
One day, the Founding Festival is held. It is the largest party in the country, held grandly every year on the day the nation was established. Arfin and Silve, who usually do not come and do not socialize with people, are also here. To be precise, it is more like they were forced to come────
All the love interests from the Otome game that Guest saw in their previous life were gathered here.
In the middle of the venue, Lilia and Lucas were laughing happily, while the other four losing heroes looked conflicted and sad, standing a bit apart from the couple, creating an indescribable atmosphere.
At that moment, Guest enters the venue.
