having tea afterwards
That's CORRECT!

And though the Unmaze was quite annoying and blatantly unfair to boot.

It was no match for the Hakurei's luck that's even more cheaty.

Now the girls are having tea.

Of course Seija's and her cohort's butt got kicked HARD before and after that.

But that does not stop anyone from having tea afterwards, because they don't have a choice in the first place.

It's quite a bland tea even, it took a long time to get hot and even then it's just hot water with leaves in a cup.

Even so, that's the end of this little story.


Thank you for playing!

Though if you have the time, do amuse me by giving me your thoughts on this formula and the highs and lows of this whole adventure.

That way, if there's a next one. It'll be even better.

That's not quite the correct route, you included some bad end paths. The exact good ending route is 1, 2, 8, 20, 21, 22, 34, 39, 40. The point is to ignore all of the on-page directions, which are "playing by Seija's rules", and just going linearly through each page that is not pointed to by the directions. I will say that this process is a little easier to catch onto in the format of the original thing which the author took the concept from.

Pretty much, yeah.

It'd turn the title into 'Reverse The Linearity of the Unmaze Cathedral'

Oh, is that what you were going for with the clue? Then maybe it would have been better if the clue read "Remove a D at the first word of the title and add a 'The' afterwards as well." Because with the wording as it is, I thought a "the" needed to be removed.
