This Life, I Will Be the Protagonist

After her rebirth, Rita vows not to repeat her past mistakes. This time, her first priority is to stop her brother, who is about to marry into the Lopez family, from participating in the initial game beta test. In her previous life, she was deceived by this scheming brother until her dying breath. It was only at the end that she realized she was merely a villain in a male-oriented novel about a live-in son-in-law, with all the malice and manipulation orchestrated by him behind the scenes. In this life, Rita decides to change the rules of the game. She will stay in the shadows and seize all the opportunities meant for the male and female leads. By participating in the beta test and re-selecting her abilities, she systematically dismantles the protagonists’ advantages, all while making them believe she’s on their side. Rita has no intention of harming innocent people, nor is she a selfless saint. In this game, she works with the authorities for mutual benefit, all to achieve her ultimate goal—becoming the true master of her fate. My other new book, *Rebirth: The Magician Who Masters Fate*, is something I hope all my dear readers will enjoy as well.

Apache's Potion

As they reached the underwater volcano with the Special Affairs Bureau, Rita received the tenth reward from Eleanor—a set of three baskets of crab roe soup dumplings. Once again, there were no words included; Rita silently accepted them without replying.

Rita often wondered if her stubbornness was inherited from Eleanor. Back when Rita had become a star and met Eleanor in B City, she had felt awkward approaching her grandmother, feeling as though it might seem like she was after her money. But now, things were different.

She and Nivalis sat on the steps in the backyard, enjoying the dumplings together. Nivalis couldn't use a straw but didn't care about the heat, so she simply grabbed a whole dumpling and stuffed it in her mouth. "Delicious!! Way better than that talkative eel stir-fry a hundred times over!" she exclaimed.

Rita responded, "My grandmother made it, of course, it's good." She paused, slightly embarrassed by her pride.
