Irene is a known writer. Her published works have always been well-received despite her notable fascination with bittersweet endings. Not just that, she's also a linguist and of course, a wide reader. One fateful night, while she was at an old rodden bookstore she happened to notice a book somewhat glimmering in the bookshelf. Realizing that it was well-written, she took it home, read it without putting it down for two days and eventually found herself in awe with the character of Magnus Baudin Veritas Courtenay who she considered to be a tragic yet well-rounded antagonist. In her mind, before she succumbed to her drowsy sleep-deprived fatigue, Irene unbeknownstly yearned to save this villain from his treacherous path of misery. When she woke up, her eyes widened in shock. What happened? Why is she all of a sudden in a somewhat English mansion, reminiscent of the setting of her recent read? What in the world happened? And what does it have do to her? (A/N: I own the story but not the artworks.)

Suddenly, I appeared before the goddess of love and beauty without a single clue of my death, and reincarnated as Amarizi Linh von Ahlefeldt, the sole heiress of the Ahlefeldt duchy, and also the villainess of an otome game? "If my memory serves me right, I am the villainess in one of the otome games that I've played before in my past life but...! I FORGOT WHICH ONE!" Slapped with a cruel reality, I lived my life, using my past knowledge accumulated through playing various otome games, to navigate through the harsh battlefield of death flags...or I could just enjoy my life and live the way that I want. What are death flags when you have limitless money at your disposal? "Ah...As expected, money is the best." Villainess? That's right, I'm a villainess and a filthy rich one at that. Death flags? Bad ends? Come here, and I'll let you have a taste of the real power of money. "I'm richer than you, bitch." *** *slow updates (once/twice a month)* Started: 8-26-2020 Ended: Edited: *Highest Rankings: *sword - #6 out of 1000+ [12/7/2020] *noble - #2 out of 1000+ [1/30/2023] *otomegame - #14 out of 1000+ [9/8/2021] *villainess - #35 out of 1000+ [11/29/2020] *godsandgodesses - #4 out of 1000+ [11/28/2021] *antagonist - #4 out of 1000+ [1/15/2021] *isekai - #39 out of 1000+ [3/24/2021] *femaleprotagonist - #100 out of 1000+ [12/7/2020] *royalty - #79 out of 1000+ [12/7/2020] *transmigration - #115 out of 1000+ [12/14/2020] *historical - #163 out of 1000+ [12/7/2020] A/N: I've been obsessing over a lot of villainess mangas/manhwas/novels nowadays so might as well make one myself!
