In My Next Life I'll Win the Heart of the Male Lead
There's nothing wrong with Adelaide's life. There's nothing wrong with being cheated on. After all, half of marriages end in divorce and most end from infidelity. There's nothing wrong with getting addicted to an otome game. After all, everybody has something they're obsessed with. There's nothing wrong with reincarnating as the villainess instead of the heroine. After all, the villainess is richer and more powerful. There's nothing wrong with the villainess chasing after one of the love interests. After all, it's not like he's the canon route. There's nothing wrong with Ophelia's life.
The Scenic Trip
May riding on the horse in front of me means that she spends a lot of time just gazing out at the world around her wide eyes that are bright with curiosity.
She's too small to be riding a horse herself anyway, but given she's got no need to worry about controlling the horse - or even falling off - her attention is completely on the scenery we pass by.
It's not the nicest scenery in the world, honestly.
And it's not been improved by the massive earthquake and storm that ripped through the land recently. A forest we ride through is more felled than it isn't. Farmland has been ruined, fences trampled and fallen, livestock missing to who knew where.
Still, her gaze is interested, downright fascinated.
She doesn't see the destruction or the pain, just the wonder of sights she'd not seen before, the thrill of adventure into the unknown.
I'm almost jealous of that.
