No, no, no...

Otto glanced again at the words "Maid A" above the maid's head.

As far as time travel goes, this world is far too absurd...

So, what's going on?

Elysia? Could it be that guy who did it?

"Young Miss? Please wash up and have your meal. If it's too late, Madam will be angry." Maid A called out softly when she saw Otto lost in thought.

"...I see."

After a moment of contemplation, Otto calmly stood up.

A new world?

Interesting.

My current identity is supposed to be the young lady of some wealthy family? A young lady... I can't even imagine it.

Otto rarely thought of his older Bianka, Bianka Apocalypse, a very loyal and upright person, just like Bianka now. She was also the only person in his family who was truly good to him back then... although Otto's memory of his older sister, who died young, had long since become blurred.

Even when the name is mentioned, Otto still thinks of Bianka Kaslana... or even the doll himself, after inheriting the memories, would miss his older sister from back then, and even give the name to a little girl.

Come on, let me see what this world is really like.

Otto was no stranger to the life of a large family.

After washing up, changing clothes, and tidying up my appearance, I followed the maid to dinner.

Then...

"Kallen—!?"

Chapter 610 RPG

"Kallen ... Kaslana."

Looking at the elegantly dressed, white-haired lady at the dining table, Otto spat out her name viciously.

What are you doing?!

Otto's first reaction was that Kallen, that bastard, and Elysia were working together to cause trouble.

"Young Miss, how can you speak to Madam like that?" Maid A hurriedly advised from the side.

However, Otto clearly didn't bother with this suspected NPC.

"Hmm? What are you talking about, my dear daughter? What can I possibly do?"

Kallen tilted her head in great confusion. Otto paused upon hearing this. Could this guy just be an NPC using Kallen's name?

No, that's definitely not it.

"Stop pretending, you idiot."

Otto spoke fiercely.

Among a bunch of Maid A, B, and C around you, you're the only one with the name "Kallen Kaslana".

Just look at the names of the other minor characters, and you can tell how perfunctory this world is. Why would they bother to give important NPCs names?

Stop joking.

"Hey, I can't hide anything from you."

Kallen covered her face with her folding fan and stifled a laugh.

"But there's one thing I'm not lying about, Mom: I don't really know what's going on now... but it feels nostalgic, doesn't it?"

"Nostalgia doesn't mean I want to relive it."

Otto was also very unhappy. Why was Kallen taking advantage of her? Besides, she must be sick to be reminiscing about her old family life.

So what's the situation now?

"I don't know. I only know two things: first, this is the Kaslana family home, and second, I am the single mother of this family with six daughters."

"Six...?" Otto was slightly taken aback. "Who else could it be?"

"Hmm, Elinor, Theresa, Amber, Kiana, and Anna should be coming over later... Otto, didn't you ask?"

Kallen didn't pay any attention to the maids around her when she spoke. Compared to Otto's previous angry indifference, Kallen really didn't care about these people.

What's there to care about when an NPC is just a glance?

If those who cause trouble define them as players, then these nameless NPCs are unlikely to have any significant impact from the actions of players.

Otto was speechless upon hearing this. She didn't play games much, so even though she knew the other party was an insignificant NPC, she still remained cautious.

"... Okay, the only information I have is that the person who caused this trouble is Elysia?"

Otto felt he couldn't really say he hadn't asked anything.

Or perhaps Otto's initial goal was to subtly extract information from the "Madam"—after all, even if the "Madam" was just a minor NPC, she certainly possessed more information than the maid, and given their mother-daughter relationship, extracting information from her would be much faster.

I never expected to find that Kallen here...

"Looks like they got up later than me?"

Otto glanced at the dining table; besides the maid, there were only her and Kallen there.

"I think they are simply not used to this old-fashioned aristocratic lifestyle," Kallen said, seeing things more clearly.

Otto and Kallen are both genuine classical nobles. Although they both despise this class, they are skilled in everything they are supposed to be.

Even Elinor, who was an outsider, was only a halfway through her life. Elinor, the adopted daughter of the Schariac family, spent her days hanging out with Otto, the unloved youngest daughter. What kind of benefits could she possibly get?

"The second piece of information is that after dinner, our family will go to church to pray," Kallen continued, "I feel like this is part of the main plot."

"I hope so... By the way, did you retain your strength?"

"No, I'm just a weak woman who can't even kill a chicken right now..."

As the two were chatting, footsteps came from the other end of the corridor.

"Hmm... Aunt Flo, isn't that cute?"

"You brat! That's unnecessary!"

It seems that the people coming in from outside are the Kiana sisters.

"Mom! What is this—" Kiana shouted as she pushed open the door, then saw Kallen and Otto, and her shout stopped abruptly.

"Here, here~" Kallen waved to the two of them.

"Lady Kallen?" Kiana's eyelids twitched. To be honest, although Kallen was approachable, her seniority was too restrictive. Kiana wasn't as lawless as she used to be, and she had to show some respect to elders... cough, elders other than Theresa. So she didn't want to see this person at all.

As for Theresa... well, her aunt really has no authority whatsoever.

"Kallen and Grandma...?" Theresa looked very puzzled.

So what about Cecilia? Judging from her actions, is Lady Kallen playing the role of the lady?

Well... that seems more like it. After all, if Cecilia were to play the role, the generational issue would be too serious.

It was only then that Otto and Kallen noticed that Amber and Anna were following Theresa and Kiana, and both of them were relatively reluctant to speak.

"I don't see Cecilia." Kallen continued waving, gesturing for Kiana to come over so she could hug her.

"Then... what about my sister?" Kiana reluctantly stepped forward.

"Little Bianka ... I didn't notice either." Kallen felt a little regretful. She especially liked Bianka, this well-behaved and upright girl—she was just like herself back then.

Well, maybe she wasn't exactly known for being well-behaved back then.

However, Bianka is not in their own girl group, which is like having a piece forcibly broken off when they were collecting illustrations.

It's really annoying.

"Lady Kallen..." Amber and Anna greeted Kallen simply.

"So, what's the situation now?" Theresa asked, resting her chin on her hand with a strange expression.

"Wait a moment, Elinor, we'll announce it once everyone's here." Although Kallen was playing the role of the lady, Otto still managed to seize control thanks to his prestige.

"... I'm sorry, Lady Kallen, Lord Otto, for keeping you both waiting."

Elinor arrived last, looking disheveled.

"... Elinor, what's wrong with you?" Everyone present was puzzled.

Everyone else is dressed in elaborate aristocratic attire, except for Elinor, who is dressed rather sloppily.

"I got into a fight with a maid." Elinor tried to appear nonchalant.

As a loyal dog, Elinor also has a radical side to her temperament.

Surrounded by strangers in an unfamiliar room, what else is there to say? Go for it! Do you think I'm listening to your nonsense?

"... Your strength has also been suppressed, hasn't it?" Otto's expression was strange.

"It is precisely because they are oppressed that they must resist."

Elinor's answer was also very self-righteous: why not resist now when you still have freedom, and wait until you are completely restricted before you resist?

However, Elinor is indeed quite out of touch with the times; everyone else knows there's no point in fighting just by seeing the minor character's name above the maid's head...

"I also asked the maid a few questions... Oh right, I discovered this when I was suppressing the maid."

Elinor made a few empty gestures, and then a light screen that didn't fit the medieval style appeared before everyone's eyes.

Elinor Kaslana

[Level: 1]

Occupation: None

HP: 90/100

[Equipment: Silk Pajamas]

"... So it really is a game?" The people present were not surprised by the panel. On the contrary, they felt that although it was strange, it was very much in line with the current art style.

"So how was this panel made?"

"When the maid resisted, she kicked me a few times, and then a prompt and explanation rang in my head... The specific method is to silently recite 'attribute' in my mind. As for the display, it requires some operation."

Upon hearing this, everyone present subconsciously recited the attribute.

Everyone's surname has been changed to Kaslana, they are all level one, have no class, and have a maximum health of 100.

"... Let's eat first, then we'll go to the church."

The simple panel didn't reveal much, so Otto closed it after a while and then announced the next steps.

After dinner, the group fully immersed themselves in the game, thoroughly looting the entire mansion and finding hundreds of gold coins and several bags of jewels. Elinor changed her clothes and went outside, where her coachman had already prepared the carriage.

This is really a perfect match for Otto and Kallen...

"Split into two cars and go to church."

The second half of the sentence was spoken to the coachman.

"Yes, madam."

On the way, the group observed their surroundings.

Clean and tidy medieval streets and smiling residents... Hmm, something's not right.

However, games don't need to be so realistic.

"By the way, is that a church?"

Kiana glanced ahead and spotted a huge female statue.

A woman in a long robe is holding a torch aloft.

"That statue... doesn't it look familiar?"

"... Vita." Otto glanced at her and instantly recognized who she was.

"No, no, no, I know Vita too. I mean, is this statue a copy of the Statue of Liberty?"

Is that even a question?
