In a world of love, betrayal, and power, Nora, an ordinary girl with a love for Otome Games, finds herself thrust into the very plot of her favorite game after a tragic accident. Reborn as Cordelia, the daughter of a powerful duke, she begins her new life amidst whispers of blame and sorrow. With her mother's death haunting her first breaths and the weight of a cursed reputation, Cordelia must navigate a life shaped by others' expectations and cruelty.
As she grows older, Cordelia discovers that her fate is not only tied to her family's legacy but also to her engagement with Prince Andrew, arranged when they were both five years old. But everything changes when, at the age of 12, Cordelia and the Prince learn of a shocking new development: Anastasia, a commoner, possesses one of the kingdom's most coveted and legendary abilities-light magic. With this newfound power, Anastasia receives a scholarship to the prestigious magical school for higher-ranked nobles, throwing her into the limelight.
Prince Andrew, One of the capture target and in the game, he saw Anastasia's beauty and power, begins to question his engagement to Cordelia. As his feelings for Anastasia grow stronger, Cordelia finds herself caught in a whirlwind of jealousy, confusion, and doubt.
While This Cordelia is different, still bound to her responsibilities as the Duke's daughter, Anastasia's magic-combined with her humble origins-poses a threat to everything Cordelia has known.
Now, while knowing what's going to happen, Fate, duty, love, and the unspoken truths of their world, Cordelia must decide how to navigate her destiny. Will she remain the villainess as the world expects, or will she find her own path to redemption and love?
A tale of magical power, forbidden love, and the fight for self-worth, this story asks: Can Cordelia prove she's worthy of her place in a world where power is everything, or will she be cast aside by the one she thought she could trust?
Your past will never truly be forgotten, I realize this now. Denying it will only make things worse, accepting it will allow you to move on. But do I want to move on? I know how I felt in my past lives, but does that impact how I feel now in this one?
Through my visions my past lives are revealed, but it is through my heart that the feelings truly arise. People I once trusted are not who I thought they were, Those I hate turn out to be the very people I can trust.
There may be a war happening around me, but there is also a raging war within myself.
