Your theories are one amalgam of both paths, so this is all bonkers in the game world.
MC is whatever about Nicole in the NTR path.
He could not care less if she whores herself,
hence his whole ”do what you must to keep the job, I do not care for you” talks they have.
So in the NTR path, Nicole is the office whore and the grown ups at the office will destroy
the bullies because noone steals their meat sleeve.
You must be so outta your minds about what a bull mind set looks like.
That's an interesting theory and is quite possible.
I originally thought the bully was gonna steal the MC's book after he got beat up in the bathroom and use some of the demon powers to to get Nicole, but I feel like it's gonna be more of blackmail path which makes more sense along with your idea.
What I'm wondering is if you'll require to have done the boss/Nicole NTR path to do the bully one since there's NTR points.
I'd rather those two paths be separate, but that might make the game a bit too complicated.
I think that path will probably begin in chapter 6 though, however I have a feeling we'll see the foundation of it in the upcoming update.
Yeah, you are absolutely right about the blackmail path arguably being the core driving force behind the NTR route, the revenge of the bullies would probably act more like an opener, until the MC would make the mistake of showing too much of his power or such and be blackmailed out of it. I'd even argue we can't exclude the eventuality of bullies and the boss working together down the line to make leverage on the mom and other Mc's LI, but I also feel you about having separate instances where the bullies have their way with the mom alone without the boss being involved.
The bullies getting the book I think might get complicated, as from what we've seen so far, MC arguably got his powers by popping his cherry inside Lilith. Also we got other demon characters that are yet to show their faces and like you said, blackmail path would probably make more sense and feel like a good contrast to the supernatural side of the game.
I don't think the bully will be a real threat, with an NTR path with the mom. I rather think it's for netori: stealing his girlfriend as revenge
This is the general progression, not to mention on NTR path MC could very well enlist his cop buddy
or even the office now surrogate fathers who would all but love to show nicole off as their meat
to the bullies and then cave their heads in.
MC has every many ways to really mess the bullies up for good, as he is a nobody to them in that route.
Then again, his demon friends would like to torture them in a show of force,
either horribly, or by snu snu.
Game oN!
