Villain-in-Training

Blurb One

Demons have black hair and black eyes, love to toy with people's hearts, and are born with powerful magic.

Most of the light-aligned races across the continent have banned them from their lands.

But even among demons, there are good-for-nothings.

When a con artist becomes a good-for-nothing witch and starts living a life where everyone wants her dead...

Female lead, grinding her teeth ominously: "You dared to make me miserable, so this world might as well be destroyed!" (Trips over her own feet a second later.) "This faithless world! Can't you at least let me have a little fun?!"

Devoted follower 1: "Hehehe, I love that Very's eyes are so bright."

Devoted follower 2: "Big Sis fell again. She fell on Mount Yanlun. We really ought to blow it up and flatten it!" (Lightning gathers in his hand.)

Devoted follower n: ...

The World is a novel with a grand setting and multiple protagonists. It tells the story of an aloof, narcissistic elf, an arrogant, chuunibyou boy, and a mysterious, scheming young man. Whenever the author writes about someone named Very, they usually spend a long time describing her gorgeous looks and exaggerated words and actions. She's adorably silly and harmless, with countless fans. When the author hints that she is the mastermind behind everything, everyone looks back through the story and carefully considers the clues, only to realize that this villain is a master of disguise!

Those who transmigrated into the book: "A dye-your-hair enthusiast, a creepy smile, a red robe, a black cat perched on her shoulder. She must be the beautiful and charming slash ruthless, cunning, and sinister schemer slash mastermind, Very! Be careful. Whatever you do, don't provoke that smiling tiger!" / Join her / Take her down / Seduce her (Wait, where did that come from?!)

Those who were reborn: ... In my past life, I died at her hands / because of her schemes. This time, I will...

Very: "Hehehe." (That's her laugh.) "This faithless world! I want the heavens to never again block my sight. I want the earth to never bury my heart. I want... First, I should figure out how to get a compass in this unfamiliar forest." [world-weary.jpg]

Things to know before reading:

1. The author is a student. Updates are usually weekly, though there may be extra chapters.

2. The author writes for fun. If this bothers you, please quietly click the X. I'm sensitive and don't accept certain kinds of "self-important criticism." If you notice an oversight or mistake I've missed, feel free to point it out.

3. Hope you enjoy reading!

4. The female lead is the biggest scumbag of all.

5. This novel has two volumes. The first is mainly about the female lead collecting devoted followers and making a name for herself throughout the land (as a notorious figure). The second is about her transmigrating into the book The World. Stay tuned!

6. I'm working out the plot lately, so updates may not resume until summer break. Sorry for the inconvenience. [bows]
