## Chapter
- number: 27
- release_date: 2025-03-05

### Summary
The chapter swiftly resolves the previous cliffhanger, revealing that Yuri Elizabeth’s mysterious smile was not malicious. Instead, she is shown to be just as annoyed and unimpressed by the original male leads as Melissa Foddebrat. This shared disdain becomes the foundation for an immediate and powerful friendship, subverting the expected rivalry between the heroine and villainess. Their bond is solidified with the appearance of another of the novel's love interests, a flamboyant, green-haired man with the ridiculous name "Peacock Melody," whose flute serenade is met with their mutual contempt. While his absurd name provides a source of immense comedy for readers, comments also reveal a darker, more sinister aspect of his character, identifying him as a yandere who will eventually try to kidnap and imprison the heroine. The narrative thus establishes a celebrated alliance between Melissa and Yuri, introduces a new and genuinely threatening antagonist, and hints at a cute, budding rivalry between Yuri and Nine for Melissa's affection.
