”I thought my game knowledge would make this easy... but it's completely different from the game!?”

There was an adult romance simulation RPG game called 『Blessing Blossom』.

It was what you'd call an eroge.

One of the characters appearing in it was Leonard Krumhight, the eldest son of a ducal family.

One day, he, who should have been merely a character within the game, recalls another set of memories that aren't his current self's.

They belong to a world different from this one.

In these memories, he realizes that the world he currently inhabits is the game world – one he had played until just before his death, only to die before he could play the additional patch.

What's more, Leonard is the villainous young master who, no matter which heroine's route he takes, always ends up dying...

There is still time before the main story of the game begins.

Leonard begins to act, relying on his memories to avoid his death.

"I'll do what I can," he resolves.

Leonard's actions begin to influence those around him in no small way.

Leonard seemed to be smoothly progressing towards his goals of avoiding death and living a carefree, slow life, but then an incident occurs.

It was something that wasn't in the game...

The developments in the game and in the reality Leonard now inhabits are different.

This incident becomes a turning point, causing Leonard's way of thinking to change.

And he makes a certain decision.

With events unfolding differently from the game, and new information surfacing that wasn't known from his playthrough, can Leonard — armed only with the game knowledge he possesses — truly avoid his destined death end?
