Reborn as the Villain in a Romance Fantasy
'A self-centric Female Lead, lost-in-love Male Leads, and useless extras who will die. On top of it, this world will not be here for long because of that ancient threat. So, what should I do now?' What kind of world was a world of Female-Oriented Fantasy romance? One filled with tinted glass and roses? Life should have been easy here, right? Wrong! Layla had read this book before, and she knew what happened. "Those useless leads left this world in a shamble! I need to do something about it before it gets destroyed. If I am going to live here, I need to ensure this world stays alive long enough. Who has time for romance when the world will end soon?" Her goal was set, and her life was laid out. Layla was going to use whatever she could to secure her second life. Everyone was a useful piece from here on, and Layla used them well to achieve her end goal. This might be a world based on a fantasy romance, but she would ensure it would not repeat it's ending. ______ Note: It has a strong Female Protagonist as the MC. No romance, no harem, no yuri.
Ch 59: I surrender - part 3
'I have never been this humiliated before. Without my honor as a Lukewater at stake, I would not have come out to meet this annoying girl like this. But as a Lukewater, I cannot let her show me up.'
His frustration was mounting, and his internal conflict was becoming more pronounced.
Daidus Lukewater, the next duke of the Celceris kingdom, looked at the tired-looking girl before him.
He had asked around about her, but all he had gotten was a name - Layla. She did not even have a family name he could use to distinguish her.
In his eyes, she was a common girl with little to her name. She was the lowest of the low, someone he should not even look toward, or he could get tainted.
He was far above her in power and status. And yet, he had been bested during the last round.
If the round had not ended when it did, he was sure he would have dropped out, which excited him.
