I'm In Love With the Villainess (Original Japanese Version)

The Royal Academy is rocked by scandal when a noble student allegedly attacks a commoner student with magic. The situation escalates when the attacker receives minimal punishment, spurring commoners to protest so violently that the school must be closed.

As a darker plot is revealed behind the commoner uprising, the academy is plunged into peril. Can Rae and Claire defeat the conspirators and deal with the resulting aftermath?

Princess Manaria of the Sousse Kingdom, an old childhood friend of Claire's, shows up to visit her. Manaria has it all—good looks, charisma, tremendous magic proficiency—and to top it off, Claire is quite taken with her. It seems Rae has a new rival...

Rae insists she just wants Claire to be happy, even if she can't be with her. Manaria tells her she's just running away, and if her feelings for Claire are true, she'll fight for her. So begins their duel to determine who will stay by Claire's side...

Manaria challenges Rae to prove her feelings for Claire at the Amour Ceremony. Both Rae and Manaria must place an item on the Scales of Love, which will measure the weight of their feelings for Claire. Who will the scales find worthy?
