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.

Sudden Wealth

After reviewing her most anticipated weapon, Rita didn't rush to count how many items had mutated. Instead, she curiously pulled out the durian shell she had bought in Sawadikap.

**[Durian Shell] (D-rank):** An ominous item emitting a strange fragrance. Every day, it produces one piece of fruit. Consuming the fruit reduces your Luck by 2 for two hours. The more you eat, the longer the effect lasts.

The palm-sized durian shell already had a plump piece of durian fruit growing from it, emitting a scent identical to that of the Musang King variety. Rita leaned in for a sniff.

Rick loves durian, she thought, wondering if the **-2 Luck** effect would show up on his character panel.

As she was pondering, the doorbell rang. Rita stashed the durian shell away, deciding not to reveal it to the Wilsons until she fully understood its effects. There would be plenty of opportunities to let them have a taste later.
