The story of a reincarnated villainess.
"It's your life now."
Sometimes we find peace in our constant suffering, sometimes we break free of our suffering,
but sometimes, we escape to a foreign land were, where newfound family becomes our own.

Of course, as I had no plans of staying over at the tower for 3 whole weeks, it made a worried duke, his son and his butler bombard me with questions. After explaining the situation of how I finish half of a year's course in 3 weeks, I got some space to breathe.
A relaxing bath, a full body massage from Veri, some real food instead of energy potions and a good night of sleep got me back into shape by the second day of my break. As I figured it was really odd to practise magic in front of people, even though I have done that twice, I asked Josep to find me an empty room where I can practise magic all by my own. At night when everyone falls asleep I sneak out and practise magic on my own. As I don't necessarily use any spell to destroy anything, no one noticed that I practise on my own in the middle of the night. And today was no different in particular.
I woke up in the middle of the night, and made my way to the empty room. It was on the 3 floor, placed in the middle between rooms and studies. 3 of the 4 sides of the room had walls while one side had large windows from the floor to the ceiling having a wonderful view of the night sky. I grabbed a few books placed on the table and dragged myself to the empty room. Still not used to the mansion, I wandered around, getting lost somewhere around the mansion in the cold night was a really bad nightmare that can happen right now. But fortunately I found the room.
I dragged myself to the middle of the room and sat down on the floor with the books. Taking a deep breath. I channelled the mana throughout my body. By now I could control mana and make it work and channel it into spells.
The light coming inside from the enormous windows and giant glass balcony door, lighted the whole room in beautiful silver light. It was easy to see everything in that light. I looked at the books. I took one of the books and flipped from pages to pages until something caught my eye. I looked at the page and read it thoroughly. Finally after placing the book down. I cupped both of my hands together
"Illumiiatis," I whispered the spell, which came out of my lips effortlessly as a beautiful golden geometric spell circle glowed over my hands. Tiny balls of light like fireflies came out of the glowing circle and started floating around the room, filling the room with beautiful glowing light.
"Beautiful," I said with a smile and watched the light balls floating around. I looked around the room which was now filled with golden light. As if I was surrounded by thousands of fireflies. I was amazed at myself.
"People out there use magic to kill, but if you look at it and admire it isn't not scary or something that should be used to kill." I smiled, staring at the light balls. "It's just so pretty."
My heart felt heavy, the heaviness didn't feel right. But why? I am the villain of this story. Why am I here? Why as a villainess? Why do people care how villainess feels?
The image of the duke, Orion, Josep, Veri and Emily flashed in front of me.
"Why do you care?" I blurted out as my dark hair hid my face. "Why do you care about the villainess?"
