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.

Was She Sparring With Air Again?

Now that the game had fully merged with reality, her skill was effectively sold off as a skill stone through the Special Affairs Bureau, rendering her little white lie mostly irrelevant. But at critical moments like this, it was a potential landmine.

Her talent was so notorious that there was a good chance that, if things started going south for Rick, he'd mutter, "Maybe someone messed with my luck?" So, better to take the initiative.

Handing over the skill stones was a subtle way of offering them some control, letting them decide when to use it.

And to make things extra clear, she planned to overtly modify her luck to a value of 10 during the prep phase for the Flood Dragon raid. This way, anyone with insight into her stats would see the change.
