[Original Western fantasy setting + changing a villain’s fate + multiple male leads + character growth + instance battles + everyone’s affection goes off course]
Jiang Niandie was reborn into an otome game she had never completed, as Qiao Xia Ista, a naturally red-haired early-game villain whom the entire continent called an “ill-omened witch.” The original character spent her life obsessing over the male lead, only to die miserably in disgrace. She was a textbook disposable pawn.
Unwilling to meet the same fate, Jiang Niandie decided to leave romance behind and focus on her career, using her once-in-a-century talent for pure darkness magic to rewrite her doomed ending. She shattered people’s prejudices with her own strength, saved a dying mermaid and gathered loyal followers, then steadily established herself at the academy. But the male leads from the original story all began to see her differently, and their behavior grew increasingly out of line.
Then the space of annihilation cracked open and one instance after another began. All four male leads stepped in front of her. Jiang Niandie never saw this coming. She only wanted to change her fate and survive to the ending, so how had her perfectly good villainess script turned into the heroine’s story?
[Content warnings]
1. Female-oriented Western fantasy with multiple male leads and an otome focus. All characters get their endings. Readers who prefer one-on-one romance should proceed with caution.
2. The heroine’s career and personal growth are the main focus. The romance develops slowly, with the male leads’ feelings changing gradually, not with love at first sight from the start.
3. The early story focuses on academy life and face-slapping comebacks. Instance battles begin in the middle and later stages, with the stakes gradually rising.
4. The Western fantasy setting, magic, and instances are all original creations. Please don’t overanalyze them for accuracy.
