Lump of Sugar's magic academy romance work, "Chronicles of Zero," is a free related side story.
Content and inclusion
The male protagonist enters the magic academy, where the academy's characters, cards, and schedule form the foundation of the love story. The Chinese official website introduces the main story and the free extras separately.
Route progression with additional content versions
Common route: Each day, choose the female lead to accompany you that day. After establishing a romantic relationship and playing the corresponding ED, the title screen opens Lovers mode; Select an object there, then return to the title interface to enter the personal route on the right.
After clearing all four heroines' personal routes, restart the game. On July 11, choose Orieta and use the "Changing Room" and "Bunny Sect Scarf" cards in the quest to enter the True route, which consists of the prologue, main story, and final chapter.
Card collection and return operations
When supporting characters appear in the common route, select them to obtain extra cards. Some additional plots rely on designated cards; If you select the wrong card, you can use Return at the bottom of the dialog box to return and make the previous selection. Events in Lovers Mode that have not yet been unlocked are subject to additional date conditions.
Points on the magic scale
The Magic Scale requires the sum of the selected cards to equal the opponent's skills. The number of points per card is calculated by multiplying rarity by the classification value: C, R, SR are 1, 3, and 5 respectively; Object, Place, Action, and Memory are 1, 2, 3, and 6 respectively. The "Divine Demon Raid" used to end does not count for points and should be selected after reaching the required points.
The four elements are in conflict
True In this chapter, the four elements form a cycle of mutual restraint: Fire, Earth, Wind, Water, and Fire, corresponding to Salamanda, Nome, Sylph, and Undine. To obtain elemental cards, you need to collect prerequisite cards across character routes.
