Summary

Connie is a young noble lady whose only standout quality is her sincerity。 Maybe that's why she loses her fiancé and gets framed for a crime all in the span of one night。 Just as all hope seems lost, the ghost of an infamous villainess who was executed years ago possesses her and clears her name。 With her incomparable charisma and intelligence, the spirit of Scarlet Castiel turns the tables in the blink of an eye。 In return, Connie insists that she help uncover the truth surrounding her new benefactor’s untimely death and a conspiracy that continues to this very day!

In a twist on the usual villainess story, Scarlett Castiel is, in fact, dead - executed at age sixteen for perceived crimes against the girl who stole her fiance。 Ten years after her death, another young noble, sixteen-year-old Constance Grail, sees Scarlett's ghost at a ball and unwittingly engages with her。 When Connie then becomes the target of the current crop of mean girls, Scarlett possesses her and saves her, but she's got a caveat: Connie needs to help her figure out who framed her。 Alth In a twist on the usual villainess story, Scarlett Castiel is, in fact, dead - executed at age sixteen for perceived crimes against the girl who stole her fiance。 Ten years after her death, another young noble, sixteen-year-old Constance Grail, sees Scarlett's ghost at a ball and unwittingly engages with her。 When Connie then becomes the target of the current crop of mean girls, Scarlett possesses her and saves her, but she's got a caveat: Connie needs to help her figure out who framed her。 Although the execution isn't perfect, I love the way that it combines mystery with the more usual story, and how Connie and Scarlett both benefit from each other's company。 It's not surprising that Fujino Omori, author of Is It Wrong to Try to Pick Up Girls in a Dungeon was somehow involved, because this is very well done。 。。。more

the premise is interesting。 but the execution (pun isnt intentional) is poor。 its hard to remember who is who。 both plot and chara development left much to be desired。 the way connie took one step forward and ten steps back was quite frustrating。 i dont want her to change overnight。 but after her bold declaration, she practically went back to her old way, but also not。 she wasnt being "sincere" anymore, yet her tendency to be pushover was getting worse。 its like when a chara declares they r goin the premise is interesting。 but the execution (pun isnt intentional) is poor。 its hard to remember who is who。 both plot and chara development left much to be desired。 the way connie took one step forward and ten steps back was quite frustrating。 i dont want her to change overnight。 but after her bold declaration, she practically went back to her old way, but also not。 she wasnt being "sincere" anymore, yet her tendency to be pushover was getting worse。 its like when a chara declares they r going to stop being too nice (and have a courage to say no), only for them to end up as a cruel coward。 she sure could say no to kate, but saying "u r wrong" to a rude reporter (can u even call her that? although they r kinda bad irl too, still。。。 lets not equalizing journalism with slander okay) was a bit too hard。and idk about mystery for the sake of mystery。 pretending to be clever isnt actually clever after all。 its a bit like writing conspiracy theories w/o any real evidences。 。。。more

終於讀完這本平常光是看封面我就完全不會想翻開的《エリスの聖杯》。這本其實是在推特上看到妖怪旅館系列的作者友麻碧大力推薦,而有點興趣,又因為單行本太貴了(都快可以買兩本文庫了)而被我放置,直到看到電子版特價¥400的時候才下手。本來看到封面還以為是很男性向的內容,或是會有百合味,結果意外地都沒有(或是單純我沒有百合雷達)。故事是描述貧窮的貴族千金コンスタンス(以下簡稱コニー)在結婚前夕發現未婚夫劈腿,而且還在宴會上被那個第三者誣陷偷竊,正當長相平凡個性也不強硬的コニー無法替自己辯護要被定罪的時候,卻受到了スカーレット的幫助。スカーレット是傳說中的惡女,在十年前被處刑。有著無人能比的美貌,還有顯赫家世的公爵千金卻因為忌妒,而企圖毒殺情敵,這也讓她從第一王子的未婚妻的位子被送上死刑台,這是這個國家誰都知道的故事。而スカーレット附在ニコー身上,靠著她的氣勢、話術、記憶力,成功扭轉了局勢,還順便幫ニコー解除了婚約,而當ニコー再次取回意識的時候,眼前的スカーレット宛如女王般要求她要替自己復仇。於是ニコー跟スカーレット兩個人開始了想辦法找出當年陷害スカーレット的人到底是誰?整體來說雖然解謎的要素有點 終於讀完這本平常光是看封面我就完全不會想翻開的《エリスの聖杯》。這本其實是在推特上看到妖怪旅館系列的作者友麻碧大力推薦,而有點興趣,又因為單行本太貴了(都快可以買兩本文庫了)而被我放置,直到看到電子版特價¥400的時候才下手。本來看到封面還以為是很男性向的內容,或是會有百合味,結果意外地都沒有(或是單純我沒有百合雷達)。故事是描述貧窮的貴族千金コンスタンス(以下簡稱コニー)在結婚前夕發現未婚夫劈腿,而且還在宴會上被那個第三者誣陷偷竊,正當長相平凡個性也不強硬的コニー無法替自己辯護要被定罪的時候,卻受到了スカーレット的幫助。スカーレット是傳說中的惡女,在十年前被處刑。有著無人能比的美貌,還有顯赫家世的公爵千金卻因為忌妒,而企圖毒殺情敵,這也讓她從第一王子的未婚妻的位子被送上死刑台,這是這個國家誰都知道的故事。而スカーレット附在ニコー身上,靠著她的氣勢、話術、記憶力,成功扭轉了局勢,還順便幫ニコー解除了婚約,而當ニコー再次取回意識的時候,眼前的スカーレット宛如女王般要求她要替自己復仇。於是ニコー跟スカーレット兩個人開始了想辦法找出當年陷害スカーレット的人到底是誰?整體來說雖然解謎的要素有點多,而且因為要周轉在社交界,所以スカーレット過去的知識跟記憶力都非常有用,ニコー在スカーレット的計劃之下,變裝、說謊,就為了取得線索,一直到找到另一個願意幫助他們的夥伴的地方,老實說都非常有趣。不過以第一集來說,其實我覺得故事有點不完整,像是記者跟神秘的市民團體的描寫都有點突兀,雖然說大概是在埋梗,但是也太突然了吧,是不能寫的自然一點嗎?後期出現的アビー這個角色我也覺得微妙,雖然說只靠兩個人+スカーレット能做的事情非常有限,所以我懂必須來點有力人士,但是這個人不會兼職太多嗎???過度有力到奇怪的程度了。另外我個人覺得很有趣的是,スカーレット口中講出傳說跟現實的差異還滿有趣的。本來スカーレット登場之後,我還以為她可能是被陷害的那種可憐美少女,結果沒想到這個人一臉坦然地承認自己也做了滿多惹人非議的事情,不過仔細想想既然都被陷害到掉了腦袋的程度,所以這個傢伙就算再怎麼聰明其實也是小聰明的程度,不到權謀的程度吧。然後我本來還以為情敵的王子妃大概就是幕後黑手,所以應該就跟其他乙女遊戲轉生小說差不多,就是心機吧。沒想到王子妃完全走向我無法想像的方向,這個傢伙超可怕的,而且好討厭。我實在是很想知道王子到底喜歡她哪一點耶?這樣比起來雖然任性,但有點傲嬌的スカーレット可愛超多的吧!這集的伏筆實在是丟出來太多了,看起來スカーレット被陷害的原因應該比想像中深刻,而且是更政治的理由。我目前的猜測是因為スカーレット母親的身分,所以她實際上是有___的繼承權吧?所以率先被除掉之類的?另外雖然ニコー的個性上可能有點偏聖母?不過我個人覺得書裡把ニコー的心境變化描寫得很好,一開始ニコー願意幫助スカーレット比較像被氣勢壓倒還有家裡負債也是原因,可是隨著故事進展,ニコー也改變了自己的想法,而且真心的想要幫助スカーレット,雖然她的行動其實還是有點太輕率,但仔細想想一個也沒有出去工作過的貴族千金,這點程度的天真好像也是理所當然?兩個人感情越來越好的地方也很可愛。雖然我個人最喜歡的角色還是スカーレット,這個人的台詞跟吐槽都很好笑,不過實際上書裡其實對スカーレット的心境沒什麼描寫,スカーレット雖然十年前跟王子間有婚約,但實際上スカーレット真的喜歡王子嗎?(目前完全看不出來)這部整體來說算是走懸疑,但是其實我有稍微聞到一點CP的味道,而且老實說中途的那個婚約出來的時候我真的差點在原地跳起舞,這個故事發展實在是太太美味了。老實說比起真像我更在意的可能是CP的發展(?)對了,寫感想不得不提到的是,這本書裡面每一章結束都會有更新情報的人物介紹,雖然我一開始真的覺得「也不過才一章而已!情報量是有多到需要更新的程度嗎?」,但老實說意外地人物介紹的內容很有趣,有些甚至很直接地吐槽,後來我最期待的可能是人物介紹。還有最後想吐槽的是「口の端を釣り上げた」這句實在是用太多了,多到太誇張了。 。。。more
