Looking at the busy streets I remembered how this world was unfamiliar to me 12 years ago. After waking up from a fall in which I hit my head, I remembered my past life.
I lived in a different world and was one of those lifestyle bloggers. Because of my career choice, I traveled a lot and knew many DIY stuff. Also, I absolutely loved Japanese culture. From the ancient Japanese with geisha and samurais to manga and games I would obsess about every single thing. Because of this, I read many manga and love to play otome games. My favorite one was "My 8 Male Gods ~ Chase after Me". I know the name is stupid but I liked please stop judging.
The game was about a commoner girl named Julia, who discovers one day she's the daughter of a Baron. Her mother was a maid in the Baron household and after discovering that she was pregnant, she was 'asked to leave' by the Madam. 14 years later the Baron looks for his illegitimate daughter and brought her back to the household. So that she could blend in the aristocratic circle, the Baron enrolled her in the Royal Academy. In this academy, Julia met many ikemens who held important positions inside the academy and were influential outside.
One of those ikemens was the Crown Prince, Albert Atherton. With the dashing looks, that I'm sure the designers spent hours working on, Prince Albert was the favorite route. Being the Crown Prince he excelled in everything he did, he was a proud young man who held a promising future.
However, something has to spoil this image right?
That something was his fiancée Cecile Dubois, the daughter of the Prime-Minister the Duke Dubois. Being spoiled since young she was your topical villainess and would harass you if you got involved with the prince. Of course, the prince didn't care about her and would shower you with his affection.
And as a matter of course, when I woke up I realized that I was the most ~loved~ character Cecile Dubois herself! You can imagine my happiness (panic) when all the pieces clicked together in my mind. You see, the happy ending in Albert's route the Dubois household is demoted and she's exiled while in the bad one everyone in the household is sentenced to death. The only thing in my mind was: Say, ne, you did not need to be so ruthless right?
But well the solution to my future was very simple: Don't EVER harass the female lead-sama.
As a vivid reader of manga/novels, I was well aware of how terrifying the aura of this b*tch is. And she is also equipped with the plot armor, there is no way a mere cannon fodder like me could be her opponent.
My only thoughts were: Yes, let's keep a distance from her.
Furthermore, I absolutely loathed Prince Albert even before becoming Cecile. I could never understand why would an author create a scum man as a male lead. Why should he cheat on his fiancée? Sure she can be trash, but can't you as the fantastic male lead first cut ties with her and then be together with b*tch lead-sama?
Fandom screamed: It is true love! The Villainess deserves!
True love my as*, no woman deserves this okay? Furthermore, he was supposed to be a gentleman even with that ice mask of his.
Because of this, although I knew how to have a loving relationship with my scum fiancée, I chose not to. Plus being a Queen must be so tiresome, is better to marry in a noble household with a good nature husband, then the treacherous royal household with a scum husband who only dislikes you because of the political marriage.
Resolving my priorities I started to plan.
Bid time, destroy engagement, create my business empire, destroy the smug face of my fiancée, be rich and willful so that I can be in peace wherever I am.
What a perfect plan, I must say.
For years bid my time, researching similar plants, flowers, wood, and foods in this world to the ones I knew in my past life. Going through the hell Queen training I learned how to manage finances and people, the most perfect etiquette and response for the occasion. I started to build a relationship with merchants who passed to offer their services in our house and save money for my upcoming business. All the preparations were done Dear Lord!
All to this moment! I will be finally free from the engagement!!
I can't hold my smile.
I will finally open my stores and create my conglomerate dominating the country economy muahahahaha!
Ops, my dark side leaked a little bit, but well you get my drift right?
Now I need to get Father prepared for the upcoming battle for the parsimony and try to rob the royal family as much as we can So that I can have a larger budget for the stores *snicker*
Please report us if you find any errors so we can fix it asap!
