Reincarnated as the Villainess — So I’ll Become the Most Iconic One

Reincarnated as the Villainess — So I’ll Become the Most Iconic One

I died in Tokyo. Stupid way to go—literally hit by a delivery truck while thinking about instant ramen. Then I woke up in Isabel Nyx Raven's body. The villainess. The one the entire kingdom despises. The one who dies screaming in every single game route. Here's the thing though: if I'm DOOMED anyway, I might as well be LEGENDARY. So I learned dark magic from a 70-year-old grimoire keeper who looks like death personified. I corrupted the Crown Princess into practicing forbidden curses. I publicly humiliated Prince Aldric in front of the entire court and made it CLEAR that I'm not the desperate girl who needs his approval—I'm the one he should be terrified of. I built a cult of students who will commit crimes just to impress me. I made a deal with a sarcastic Shadowviper familiar. I caught the attention of a dangerously charming foreign prince who practices dark magic openly and looks at me like he understands exactly what I am. And I did it all while walking a razor's edge between genius and catastrophe—one misstep away from heresy charges, underworld entanglement, and the Crown declaring war on my house. The church is investigating me. Rival kingdoms are circling. My fiancé hates me. The underworld thinks I'm their newest weapon. And Prince Riku? He's either going to be my greatest ally or my most beautiful disaster. But here's what they don't understand: I'm not playing to survive. I'm playing to be UNFORGETTABLE. Even if it kills me, I'm going to make sure the world never forgets the name Isabel Nyx Raven. Watch me burn it all down. (("I will be posting this story on RoyalRoad.com))

The public speculated wildly about the identities of the Vicenzan tycoon and the female member with the surname Sterling. - Later on, a candid street photo that was accidentally captured went viral. In the dense night of The Spire on Vesper Island— Beside a Benz, a handsome, composed, and dignified man lifted a striking beauty in a red dress with one arm, pressing her against the car door and lowering his head for a deep kiss. In the faint light and shadow, the woman's flowing hair was swept by the wind, wrapping around the man's finger, which wore a pinky ring. Like a footnote to a romance, and even more like a vintage film frame etched into the axis of time. Someone immediately dug up the man's identity based on clues from the photo. The eldest son of Vicenza's Rhodes Family—low-profile and inscrutable, cold and untamable, and also the powerful contemporary authority of The Vesper Circle. And the alluring, glamorous belle by his side was none other than Stella Sterling. When the street photo spread to the mainland, everyone excitedly exclaimed: "The case is solved, the case is solved—"

The Villainess Now Has the Whole Galaxy on Their Knees

Sophie Wexler transmigrated into a novel about The Galaxy, becoming the vicious, F-rank Healer-class cannon fodder. The original owner constantly caused trouble and made things difficult for the female lead, earning her the hatred of the entire internet. Upon transmigrating and seeing that everything had been ruined by the original owner, Sophie's only thought was: "What kind of nightmare start is this?!" To escape the original owner's fate, Sophie Wexler worked diligently, conducted herself conscientiously, stayed away from the male and female leads, compensated the soldiers harmed by the original owner, and strove to be a model citizen of The Galaxy, absolutely refusing to be the cannon fodder 'offed' by the Imperial Marshal! Broke and powerless, Sophie also had to support a man who'd been innocently dragged into the original owner's mess. She had no choice but to hustle. She started live streaming, became a masked singer, and held concerts. At first, netizens were scornful: 【Tsk, how good can she possibly sound?】 Later, the netizens were forced to eat their words. 【Damn, that's so good I'm on my knees!】 【What the hell, the violent episode of my Disorder Period has actually been soothed?!】 【The toxins in my Spiritual Sea have actually been eliminated!】 Her live streams went viral, the masked singer became a huge sensation, and tickets for her concerts were snapped up across The Galaxy. Sophie was content, thinking, "This time, I must have finally escaped the original owner's fate, right?" But what do you know, the man I've been doting on and supporting is actually the Imperial Marshal?! --- One day, Yancey Forrest came home to find that the boisterous person who was always claiming to be good to him was gone. His eyes darkened. Provoke me and then think you can leave? After catching her, Yancey traced his fingertips along Sophie's neck, smiling gently. "Why run?" Sophie trembled. "You... you're the Imperial Marshal?" His identity exposed, Yancey Forrest took her hand and slowly placed it on his own neck ring. "You know I won't kill you, don't you?"
