    The female protagonist shapes herself using the resources at her disposal, and that's a truly fascinating plot. In a sea of ​​novels filled with parasitic, idealized, and manipulative heroines, she stands out like a blooming lily of the valley—pure and beautiful, yet deadly poison, practically ruthless. She's absolutely clear-headed, a ruthless and decisive egoist who firmly believes "mountains may crumble, but self-reliance never fails," constantly striving to enrich herself and plan for her future. This kind of character is incredibly satisfying to read! The writing and plot are both excellent. The female protagonist is clever and resourceful, managing to live a fulfilling life regardless of the circumstances, and she's also a minor male admirer. The lack of a fixed romantic pairing is also a big draw; each world features multiple male leads, except for one impure man in the first world, who remains pure until the apocalyptic world. The historical setting is particularly realistic, making the reader feel as if they're right there. Moreover, reading this book can spark thought. Like in the first world, the female protagonist and her older brother strive for their goal, considering multiple outcomes to maximize their benefits. This made me realize that I need to seize the resources at my disposal to climb the ladder and invest in myself to live a better life. It's definitely a masterpiece; I highly recommend everyone check it out!
