After falling off the staircase, Elaine McBerryl arrived at the gates of heaven and rested in peace..... or so she thought. Who would have known that once she opens her eyes, not only she maintained a healthy body, she apparently had the shape of the 12-years-old Elaine Ruby, one of the leading villainess of an otome game* she played when she was younger?
It should have been a happy event for Elaine to be reincarnated. However, the in-game villain Elaine Ruby is a girl who is fated to die inside the game. This villainess character never lives until the end if the main character gets her [happy end].
"If I got reborn, why must I have the same fate as before? The world is really unfair" Elaine said with a long sigh, accepts her unfortunate fate, and resolved to live a lazy life until death.
After all, what else can you expect from an ex-25-years-old-office-lady Elaine McBerryl who had already experienced death once?
Trying to find a way back to her old world?
"You're kidding me? I died. Also, I don't want to find a new job.."
Practicing magic?
"As long as it is not a lot of work, then I'll do it."
Getting rid of the main character?
"Society interactions are too much work for me."
Stopping her death flags** from happening?
"I don't know. Maybe? If I feel like it?"
Finding a lover?
"It's okay. I don't think I need a lover. I just want to spend my days staring at those gem-like-faces hunks."
This is a story of a woman-reincarnated-girl who wants to live a comfortable and simple life but always get herself into danger and unwanted situations.

Til Death Tears Me Apart Once Again [Discontinued]
"If I'm going to die anyway, there's no point in trying to live." A typical reincarnated into a villainess story, except the protagonist isn't your typical 'I want my happy ending protagonist', but a death seeker. XX 《'Til Death Tears Me Apart, I Will Always Love You》is a very successful otome game. As much praise and admiration the game recieves, it is also, however, notorious for being absurdly difficult. One wrong step and the player would be drowning in an ocean of death flags, for both the Heroine and the Capture Targets. Anything short of perfection wouldn't even get the player a glimpse of a happy ending for the Capture Target the player chose. Enter me; Just a simple, normal girl reincarnated into a game as dangerous as that, as the villainess no less. Destined to die no matter what, I think there's no point in me trying to fight fate. If I'm going to die regardless, might as well die sooner rather than later. But that desire for death causes more than just a few changes to the definite plot; From little ones that have no effect at all, to life changing ones that may destroy the world of Arraxus. So the God of the world makes a deal with me: They'll give me a peaceful and happy afterlife, as long as I get a happy ending for myself. "Let the game begin!" -- Discontinued.Complete
The Duke Fell for the Villainess
She was just a tired grade school teacher in the modern world- unappreciated, overworked, and denied her promotion year after year. Her only escape was her favorite otome game... until a tragic accident with a banana peel ended her life. When she opened her eyes again, she wasn't in her small apartment anymore. She was in a luxurious mansion. In a child's body. The villainess of her favorite game. Born as the real daughter of a Marquis, she knew how her story was supposed to end: starvation, betrayal, poison, and death. Her stepmother and stepsister would steal everything from her, and her own father would let her die without a tear. But this time, she refuses to play the role of a doomed villainess. Armed with memories from her past life, loyal brothers at her side, and a sharp tongue sharpened by years of teaching, she'll rewrite fate itself. Yet the world of nobility is more dangerous than she imagined- scheming crown princes, false heroines, poisonous stepmothers, and a cold northern Duke whispered to be a beast. But what if the "beast" turns out to be the one man who sees her for who she truly is?
An End And A Beginning
A short story about a villainess girl who had gained knowledge of her fate. She didn't changed anything and had accepted her fate. Her 'henchmen' as a voice called them, are her precious friends. She knew of what their fate was and has warned them again and again for them to avoid it. ♧♤♧♤ "Just what is real Love?" a whisper of a girl. Images of her friends faces full of despair flashes her mind." Why must we keep on chasing after their shadows when we know that we are not their desiried person?" Years later, friends who are worried about her asked why she held so much sorrow and longing towards the person she's marrying in the future. " A foolishness that I had done causes me to lose all. I give everything for him and just have nothing to receive in return. You, my friends please remember my words. Don't be ruled by jealousy and see the real self of the person you're with. My sorrows and melancholy, hope you won't experience them." ♧♤♧♤ Author's note: This story was in my drafts for quite a while(they are flooding at my notebooks/journals and drafts in wattpad). It a waste that I might forgot the plot and all so here it is. Mainly I don't have much time (mostly procrastinating ) and I have lot of novels to catch up. So... this novel might not have decent updates that it might be on par with on hold/on hiatus stories. I just felt wasted on leaving it rot like some of my old stories. Again I don't own my book cover picture. Salute to people who have amazing talents. Status: CompleteComplete
Otome Game: I, The Heroine Will Be Your Savior! (GL)
A streamer who had thousands of fans in Japan, who loved otome games, reviews them posting online and making a living out of streaming.

"What the heck?! All the love interests are horrible on this game?!" The production company who made the game, [Love Lily Blossom Otome Game]. Such a long name by the way, made all the love interest have some sort of distorted personality and even if the heroine does end up with one of them, she'll be either locked in the love interest's mansion, exiled, or will be the love interest's slave?! Only the villainess was the only sensible one but even she got the worst ending too for being engaged with the crown prince- and dying at every route she's on.

One day, she suddenly dies and realizes she's not in her own body anymore. She was being pinned down by the Villainess in the wall proceeding to threaten her. "If you don't leave the crown prince alone. I'll have no choice but to use other ways to shut you up." she says coldly, glaring at the cowering girl. Well that was the Villainess thought but the former streamer was just so confused and excited she couldn't help but shout- "I-I'm the Heroine of Love Lily Bloom?!" The Villainess looked at her weirdly once the Heroine was eyed leveled with her gaze. Those pupils dilated and seemed to have formed heart shapes irises. "You-! I'm going to save you!"

You Only Live Twice (Discontinued-ish)
Olivia was your average 18 year old girl. Keyword, 𝙬𝙖𝙨, until she drowned in a lake and woke up in a crappy novel her friend recommended to her. The character she'd been convinced to read it for ended up being a small-time, side villain that disappeared half-way through the story, Olivia Auclair, the duke's sickly eldest daughter with the same first name as her. And just as her luck would have it, she now is living as that Olivia. Truthfully, she barely knew what she was getting into or why she was sent here after death in the first place. The only recollection she had of the story was the spoiled, self-centered heroine, Angelica, with a generic backstory and extremely overpowered abilities, the main characters who surround her, and of course, her hatred for the fictional book. Her saving grace to stay alive and well? Well of course it is to befriend the two most prominent characters within her reach, the antagonist and the male lead. Both of which eventually would be roped into the heroine's harem, but if all went right then hopefully by then she wouldn't have anything to worry about. Unfortunately, her plan backfired some where along the way, and now she is faced with the heroine's silent wrath and jealousy, her pawns overprotectiveness, an adopted noble's persistence, family drama, and the ever enclosing end of the story. What's a girl to do in her second life except lie down and accept her impending doom? -> Currently being rewritten!!! <-
Villainess x Yuri
After an untimely death, I woke up in the world of my favorite otome game...only to realize I'd been reborn as the villainess, the character destined for ruin. Great. At first, I thought I was the heroine, who wouldn't want to be the star of their own story? But reality hit hard when I discovered my true role: the scheming noblewoman meant to be defeated. Determined to avoid my doom, I resolved to change my fate... until I noticed something weird. The male lead? Ignored. The heroine? Smitten. The female rivals? Obsessed. Now, instead of fighting for survival, I'm drowning in attention from women who should hate me. And the worst part? I'M STRAIGHT. "I'M STRAIGHT! WHAT THE FU-" I screamed at the so-called "god" floating above me, lazily flipping through a manga. She smirked, golden eyes glinting as she sipped her lemon tea. "Darling, you might be straight as a road... but even roads have curves~" I gritted my teeth, my face burning. "For the first time in my life, I hate you, God!" "Oh, come on," she purred, the room suddenly turning icy. "Where's the fun in a boring reverse harem? This way, it's a surprise." ...I should've read the fine print before reincarnating. (⚠️Story was written long ago. Plot are very messed up and illogical. Apologies.⚠️)Complete
