Chapter 3: An Extra in the Spotlight
Victoria Phoenix, known as Suzuki in the game, stepped out of the carriage with an elegance that could stop anyone in their tracks. Her appearance was even more captivating than her in-game art.
But as soon as she set foot on the ground, her face shifted to one of frustration and concern, mirroring the emotions her character felt in the game.
Silas chuckled under his breath. He knew exactly what she was going through.
"She's probably as freaked out as I am," he thought. "Except she's the villainess, so that's gonna be interesting."
Then, a thought struck him — the system had told him to "have fun" in this new life. So why not take it seriously?
With a mischievous grin, Silas strode towards Victoria, bowing with dramatic flair.
"O beautiful lady Victoria! It is a true honor to meet you!"
Victoria — or rather, Suzuki — froze, taken aback by the unexpected approach. In the game, this kind of interaction never happened. Side characters like Silas were never meant to make a move on her. The plot didn't allow for it.
But after a beat, she composed herself, her awkwardness mixing with a hint of hope.
