Good update overall, really left a taste for more.
More character introductions and intrigue, with a battle being waged in the north simultaneously. The prince is a little douchebag that will end up in the dungeon, hopefully.
Cassia's sex scene felt rushed. Her reason was probably to outdo Valentina and grab MC's attention, but it could have been taken slower, I agree with
xXwankerXx. A detailed blowjob scene, followed by a titjob, or something kinky as a bonus, like thigh sex, could have satisfied me even more than what was given.
I do take issue with some dialogue choices that are completely misleading - in that they are not choices at all. Like choosing to volunteer to head north and aid in the battle or stay in the palace and guard in the festival: Neither choice matters as the game will just keep you at the palace. Then why put the choice at all? Roleplaying? In what way does it affect anything? I can understand the dialogue choices of being polite or aggressive, as they might influence some future events. But here the result is the same.
Close to the update's end, where Cassia goes missing, MC goes to check on Valentina.
And while she is anxious about Cassia's disappearance, Valentina decides it's a good time for making out and taking things further? And MC agrees? In the middle of the search? While just the day before he was made aware he is being spied on?! I mean... Come on! That made no sense for either character, it was super rushed, and felt out of place entirely. It really stands in contrast for most of the game, which is exceptionally written and paced. I guess Thunderline felt some eyecandy was missing, and jumbled something together hurriedly.
