RPGM Henteria Chronicles Ch. 3 : The Peacekeepers [Update 17] [N_taii]

[Jeferss12]

Personally I'm hoping Leto tries to have a romantic moment with Rose watching the sunset. He suggests it early in the day, she agrees, and when he goes to meet her she's not there so he waits... and waits... and then she shows up at the last minute with the duke's cum running down her leg because they lost track of time and in her rush to get to Leto the duke nuts in her.

Sad for Leto that his girlfriend comes with semen dripping from her legs to get to her date with him, and happy moment for the Duke who is fucking the daughter of the woman he was in love with, without Rose's mother and Leto having the slightest idea about it, what I would really like to see is when they show us the reaction of Rose's mother when she wakes up and finds out everything that's happening, will she blame her husband?, will she do something against the Duke for what he did to her daughter, and will she be the only one of the few people that Leto knows and will try to help him? that second question makes me think a lot given the fact that she forgave her husband who did to her the same thing that the duke is doing to her daughter, and that despite everything he did to him she even almost gave her life for him, then it would really be shitty if she told Leto, "listen Leto I know that that man fucked Rose who is my daughter and your girlfriend, and turned her into a little whore who doesn't hesitate for a second to fuck anyone who she considers has done enough for our kingdom to satisfy him with her body, but let's listen to why they did it, surely they had reasons to do that to my daughter", friend that would really be shitty, that's why I'm really looking forward to seeing what her position will be in the story when that moment comes.

I don't see Leto being moved to emotion by seeing butts and boobs in bikinis, if he's going to be moved by anything it should be seeing them with others. I could see him getting jealous of all the time they're seemingly spending with the other men in their lives even if he doesn't clue into those relationships being physically intimate.

What would be hotter?

If Leto and Rose planned to have moment alone on the beach, but Duke wanted time with her and she turned Leto down?
Or Leto asking Rose, only to find out Duke and Rose already planned for time together?

There's tension and humiliation either way, but in different ways. If it's the first, Leto would think Rose has become so distant from him that she'd rather spend time with Duke. If it's the other, than Leto would get the first big hint of how deep their relationship is now.

Of those two options I feel like the former makes more sense than the latter, but they're quite similar in the end result. While Rose and the duke are basically fucking all over his mansion and at almost all times of the day, Rose hasn't quite yet ticked over to willing partner yet. She's at a point where she's clearly enjoying it and, given her behaviour with the pirates and an update 16 spoiler she's at a point where she's no longer thinking logically when it comes to sex, but she's not at a point where if the duke was all "We're going to fuck at 3:00." she would turn down a date with Leto for the same time. Choosing the duke over Leto should be the final step of her corruption. My preference would be for her and the duke to start having sex before a planned date with Leto and for her to lose track of time and for her to rush to Leto without a chance for her to clean herself up first, or she's very late. Of those two options I'd prefer the former because her showing up with cum leaking down her thighs and on her breath would be so brutal.

I'm really hoping for Rose and Leto to fight. Maybe not necessarily fight, but for Rose to snap at Leto when he starts asking questions. She's able to deal with her predicament when it's just her alone with Duke (and his maids), but seeing Leto show concern for her would make her mind a calamitous whirlpool of guilt, despair, and frustration. She tells herself that she's doing anything she has to for her kingdom, and for Leto, but she still acknowledges that she's being unfaithful to him.

Leto has no clue what's happening between Rose and Duke, but she does, and she might project all of that guilt onto Leto and believe he's onto her. With all the gaslighting Duke has done to her, telling her that she has to make sacrifices for the good of her people, she would be angry if Leto caught on and rendered all of her sexy times utterly pointless. "Why are you asking so many weird questions?? Why are you being so clingy?? Do you have any idea what I'm doing for you?? I thought you believed in me!!"

I think Rose will be to Leto what Duke is to Rose: a manipulative gaslighter. Unable to handle all the emotions and bullshit welling up inside her, she turns it to Leto. She'll say that her distance is no big deal, all of her time spent with Duke is necessary, whatever she does with him is greatly exaggerated or perfectly okay for her to do, and how dare he distrust her (or get in her way). She'll make sure she keeps Leto in check, just like how Duke does to her.

I think you may be right on where Rose ends up, she's certainly starting to take on some of the duke's unsavory traits, but I don't think we're quite at that stage yet. Just how much like the duke she becomes may be determined by the ending as having Rose go from gaslighting Leto to not gaslighting him without her looking like a total piece of shit would take a finesse that N_Taii has not shown yet in his writing. Not that I don't think that he could, I'm just not sure if he would.

As for her projecting, I would wager you're right again as we know Rose is a very emotional person. We've seen her project her insecurities and guilt onto Cyanna already, it wouldn't be too large of a leap to expect her to do the same to Leto.

The moment she snaps at Leto would be a good moment to include a multiple choice response. Revenge would be to snap back at her and get frustrated with her distancing, attitude, and lies. Cuck could be Leto meekly saying sorry and going along with Rose's version of reality. But what would a Good response be? What would a Good Leto think and feel at that moment, and what would be something Rose wants (or more importantly needs) to hear from him? It might not settle her down, and she could even get angrier at Leto, but it's a seed he's planting in her (just like Duke is gonna do ).

but we've more or less reached that point, right? in the freeroam where leto arrives at rose's room and she is looking at herself in the mirror, and they talk for a while, they agree to go out together, and she tells him to wait for her outside while she changes clothes, at that moment the duke arrives and orders leto to do something, and while that happens he has sex with rose, and when leto returns rose is already all tired and tells leto that it would be better if they went out another time.

 

[Oriandu]

A good Leto would do the right thing. Whatever she's snarling about you go with the calm, measured response. It should be like that thing in a movie where the line echoes in the head of the person who heard it at a critical moment. Say, the duke is about to push forward with something and it's something Leto is aware of, but it's not something he's aware of Rose's involvement in. She has a conniption and we get a set non-RGB responses that are all different ways of telling her to calm down and no matter what you say she snaps angrily in response demeaning Leto in a way that questions their relationship and his masculinity. The response options are basically "Why are you being such a bitch? I'm just trying to help." for the revenge path, an apology for the cuck path, or for the good path he recommends that she calm down and think before she acts. She blows up and storms off no matter what, but when everything comes to a head and she's making her choice she thinks to herself "If I had taken a deep breath to think I wouldn't be about to see (update 16 spoiler)my father get sacrificed to power the peacekeepers." and then she either helps Leto save the day because you're on the good path, or she decides that (update 16 spoiler)a father who abandoned her to the duke's machinations isn't worth saving and stands back and lets it happen.

I'm a firm believer that the moment where Rose's relationship with Leto breaks it has to be the single most important moment in the plot, it has to be the lynch pin. This is the first HC where the hero and heroine are actually in a relationship and if and when it breaks it has to be hugely important.

but we've more or less reached that point, right? in the freeroam where leto arrives at rose's room and she is looking at herself in the mirror, and they talk for a while, they agree to go out together, and she tells him to wait for her outside while she changes clothes, at that moment the duke arrives and orders leto to do something, and while that happens he has sex with rose, and when leto returns rose is already all tired and tells leto that it would be better if they went out another time.

No we aren't. The duke sends Leto off on an errand, at that point she had time to spare and they simply didn't do anything afterward. That's not prioritizing the duke over Leto.

But what would a Good response be? What would a Good Leto think and feel at that moment, and what would be something Rose wants (or more importantly needs) to hear from him? It might not settle her down, and she could even get angrier at Leto, but it's a seed he's planting in her (just like Duke is gonna do ).

I think that Good Leto's "answer" would, ironically enough, just be a question in return where he calmly but firmly investigates why she would react so aggressively to what started as a very innocuous question on his part. For the Good ending, Leto is supposed to be the most clear-eyed version of himself, while the NTR and Revenge endings hinge on his character flaws.

NTR: He is too meek and passive, so deep in denial that he is willing to overlook almost anything until it's far too late.
Revenge: He responds to conflict by lashing out in aggression, emotionally isolating himself from his loved ones.
Good: He doesn't get distracted by personal drama or some internal struggle, which allows him to eventually see the solution.

So Good Leto's response in that situation would probably involve asking Rose a question that forces her to pursue some introspection about how much she's changed due to the Duke's influence. Nothing that will immediately ring a bell, but just enough that it continues to quietly haunt her in the background of the next few updates until we've reached the endgame.

I thought of a third scenario in which Leto and Rose make plans for a date on the beach: play in the water, soak in the sun, have ice cream or whatever, play like they used to when they were kids, etc.

But... Duke butts in the middle of their date and gradually encroaches. Taking over their conversations and making things about himself or political matters, taking Rose to eat elsewhere, walking with her on the sand... Leto slowly becomes a third wheel on his own date. Rose is annoyed by Duke, but can't refuse him or push him away, so she makes excuses to Leto and tries to tell him everything's okay.

Duke would tell her that the shame and anxiety she's feeling about her date with Leto getting interrupted would give a huge boost in power to the Peacekeepers, so she goes along with his sexual antics. Cue Leto getting ignored by Rose and Duke, sidetracked with mundane tasks, and searching for them when they go missing.

I love the idea of "It's not your date anymore, it's their date."

But this all just speculation. I'll look forward to whatever N_Taii comes up with.

 

[Oriandu]

One thing I could see happening is a gradual encroachment of the beach trip itself. It starts out as a weekend of fun in the sun and surf and as the days go by it gets more and more twisted. Say, day one it's Leto and the girls having fun and they only get pulled away by their partners closer to the end of the day. On day two the girls wake up next to their partners so the first part of their day is, of course, sex leading Leto lonely for the first little while. As the day progresses they get called away one by one leaving Leto all alone on night two. On the third day of their little vacation he only ever sees them one at a time for a short while before the scamper back to continue having sex, with the day ending with my previously described sunset date that Rose arrives disheveled and freshly used to. To put the cherry on the sundae have that be her first appearance to Leto of the day. Late to their date... soaked in splooge.

I feel like we've all kind of lost the plot with this update considering how N_Taii has alluded to it in POLs. I should probably stop hoping for it to be so dark and depressing.

On the subject of the actual update and not our pie in the sky musings about it, I'm hoping we get something resembling an ETA tomorrow. It'll have been nearly a month since the release of update 16, so it'd be nice to at least have a vague release window. I'm expecting it just before Christmas.

 

[Jeferss12]

A development like this with Leto and Rose, but in pixel art XD

The main issue, from my perspective, is that the so-called 'good' responses are basically a watered-down cuck. They lean much closer to a submissive path than one of revenge. Ideally, these responses should strike a balance in the middle, aiming for what's truly "right".

At best, the outcome is staying with someone who has been used and broken as others pleased. For me, that's far from a "happy ending".

I totally agree, and they reinforce it with the fact that the person who has been completely used and broken by their stupid decisions, allows you to be in intimate relationships with other people besides her, to feel better about herself, for all the stupid things she did believing she was doing the right thing XD.

like with Noa and Celis in HC2, like "The truth is I was in love with you but I couldn't tell you so I played along with your cousin that doing lustful things with him would help me get closer to you, and that decision led me to end up more used than a kitchen rag, not only by your cousin, but by your uncle too, so since guilt eats away at me for simply not having confessed to you how I felt, and instead of falling into your cousin's game, I'm going to allow you to sleep with other women besides me so that in that way I won't feel so bad about everything that happened"

 

[Oriandu]

That is actually one of my bigger issues with the endings in the HC series. Yes, I understand that the women need to be corrupted, I'm not questioning that. But at the end of the story we have two very antipodal character states, especially in the good and "true" endings. The MC is going to basically be a completely inexperienced virgin in those endings and the female lead is going to be accustomed to sex from a very experienced and more dominant partner. It's particularly bad in HC1 since the villain in that is an immortal demon with centuries of sexual experience and superhuman abilities. In HC2 both main women are willing to fuck around when their partners aren't present. The idea of Casio and Noah being able to satisfy them is laughable. We're in much the same boat with Rose specifically, she's accustomed to sex with a partner who has decades of experience and a staff of maids at his sexual beck and call. In what world could Leto ever hope to satisfy a woman accustomed to that? Even an open relationship wouldn't solve their problems. As much as I might want a happy ending, I just don't think it should be possible.

As much as I might want a happy ending, I just don't think it should be possible.

yes, in the revenge ending of HC2 it is understandable, because More trained Noa for a long time so that he knows how to satisfy a woman, and that in part seemed funny to me given that More was also a Virgin XD, but well they give her justification with her dominant personality and that she is an evil goddess, but in the happy ending they can't simply sell us the idea that Noa could replace Edwryr's place by satisfying Celis's sexual needs, already with everything that she had experienced and the sex she was accustomed to, so the way things are going in HC3 in the happy ending we are going to have an ending similar to that of HC2, where Leto forgives Celis for everything that happened and she comes with Celis's line "to feel better about myself Leto you are free to have sex with other women", being that as you say Leto is a virgin, he has no sexual experience, so it would become somewhat monotonous if you gave us the same ending, unless they give Leto some development in his sexual experience before the end.

What I mean is that it would be interesting if there was corruption on both sides, both on the side of the female characters and the main character, and they could focus more on the corruption of the women and develop the corruption of the male character more slowly.

I say if you can sexually corrupt a pure woman with altruistic thoughts like the ones we have been given in the HC volumes, tell me why you couldn't do the same with a man who is kind and gentle by nature.

But I know someone will tell me that the corruption of women is sexual and that of the male character is mental, but let's be realistic, a purely mental corruption throughout the plot in the main character is not good for a happy ending.

Btw, sorry to interrupt, but the new update's out early : )

Enjoy!

 

[Karcosa]

I want to try the game, good reviews and it seems to have a fandom, but i better ask, is the type of game that mc never finds out? if its like that then is not for me

The way you phrased that made me think you meant update 17.

It's the kind of game where the MC finds out... Eventually. He finds out at a point in the story but for most of the game he's in the dark.
