AHHH I HAVE TO DO THIS SO MANY TIMES BUT IDC
Charlotte (MC) gets isekied to this horror video game she played often, specifically into the mansion. It called the 'Leisenburg Mansion' or smth. I'm saying specifically, bc she cannot leave fhe mansion. She's like cursed or smth. After 500 years later, Dietrich (ML, originally MC of Horror Game) shows up in search shelter, after having to travel to see the Duke or smth. My boys had a rough backstory, having to deal with constant harassment in a shelter (aka a Church.) and being boo'ed by humanity for not killing enough ppl in war or smth ( poor dude). Anyways, ig the Pope sends him away, and on the way, it rained heavily, he just wanted a roof over his head, now he's with crazy chic . Okay, so my guy basically gets lured in, and once ur in, tou can't get out. THAT IS, unless u find the 'Room of Truth'. And in order to find it, you gotta tour the mansion. Anyway, that's the whole point of the game; Miss Girl would give him instructions (like an NPC), and he'll fight monsters, deal with traps, and collect clues from the mansions to defeat the bosses/level up by going up floors. But ofc, we got a new MC and she's possessed. Not only that, but she was an avid player of the horror game before she got isekied, so that made her know everything about the setting, the ways Dietrich would die, where he can find clues and how to get them, etc. Not to mention she's an NPC, so gets extra powers like knowing which rooms have insta-kill traps and all. So with all this, she decides to help him as much as she can. BUT ofc there must be consequences, so there are strict limits with how much she can help him. Examples; she'll get penalties for helping him by telling him smth verbally, for stopping him from doing certain things (like falling for a trap), etc. Ofc MC is actually selfish like a normal person, and isn't selfless like regular MC's (which is rlly refreshing), meaning she usually let's him get injured sometimes or let's him fall into these traps. Bc she's so hypocritical, Dietrich has trust issue and doesn't like her (valid), but opens up when he realizes she only acts up when her eyes are red, indicating she's possessed by the game, making her say shit she doesn't mean (her eyes are blue). So, regarding their relationship, they begin to warm up for each other, mainly bc their both lonely, but also bc they begin to understand each other, despite the lack of communication. Anyways, back to the story, bc this is where is gets juicy
