"Once the roses bloom in full, you won’t be able to return to the human world—" No ads. No gacha. You were saved from a near-fatal traffic accident—by a Demon. But recovery takes two weeks. And you’ll spend every day of it in the Demon’s Realm—surrounded by demons who find your situation far too entertaining. Soon, they begin to close in—each for their own reasons. But one thing ties them together: a Pact. In other words—your Soul. With seductive words and dangerous promises, they tempt you little by little. If you give your heart to one of them, you may never return to the human world again. As the days pass, what begins as an uneasy stay slowly turns into something harder to leave behind. Caught between sweetness and danger, you begin to uncover what truly lies within the demons’ hearts. A dark, bittersweet romance where love and temptation intertwine. ■Game Features A dark fantasy otome visual novel Play Sero routes for free, from beginning to ending Unlock the remaining 7 romance routes with a one-time purchase 8 romance routes in total, each with 2 endings A simple affection system that determines which ending you can reach An Ending List and Sound Test to unlock as you play Estimated playtime: 2–4 hours per route / 16–32 hours total for the full version ■Meet the Demons Spend two weeks with a cast of unforgettable demons— each with their own charm, secrets, and temptations. Sero — The Demon of Protection The silent master of the mysterious mansion. Calm, sincere, and unwavering. He treats you like someone worth saving... even when you don’t believe it. Rivel — The Demon of Revenge Elegant, sharp-tongued, and dangerously entertained by you. Every sweet word hides a blade. Noche — The Demon of Plunder He barks and blusters like a kid trying to act tough, but you can’t just leave him be. Rough around the edges, hopelessly honest, and far softer than he wants you to notice. Kalmia — The Demon of Resurrection Beautiful, cruel, and endlessly entertaining—especially when he’s insulting you. He doesn’t call you by name. Not when “piglet” is so much more fun. Urheil — The Demon of Exchange All smiles, easy jokes, and a friendly drawl—the kind of guy who makes any room feel safe. Until you glimpse the steel underneath... and realize he’s terrified of caring too much. Zarnitza — The Demon of Transposition A massive, old-fashioned warrior who praises everything as “Beautiful!” His grand words sound absurd... until you realize he means every word. Ikorl — The Demon of Advance A mischievous clown with an innocent smile and something darker underneath. Playful one moment, unsettling the next—always a step ahead. Ksina — The Demon of Curse A flirty, unstable Demon who swings from charm to despair without warning. He’ll whisper you into a blush... then sink into self-loathing in the same breath. ■Content Warning This game contains dark themes including death, emotional distress, and supernatural danger. Some scenes include references to violence, psychological tension, and romantic intimacy. The main game contains kissing scenes, but no explicit sexual content. Planned post-launch After Stories may include mildly suggestive romantic scenes. ■After Stories Additional After Stories are planned as post-launch content. These short epilogues continue each romance after the ending where the heroine chooses the Demon’s Realm. On the mobile version, After Stories will be available as separate in-app purchases. ■Closing Line Will you return to the human world— or choose a future in the Demon’s Realm?
