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.

[A Big World, A Small Me]

It wasn't an item, a Curio, or even equipment—it was a toy.

The Bear Cookies, reportedly invented by the Oak Owls, were designed for their children. When a young Oak Owl wore the Bear Cookies, it would activate whenever a larger Oak Owl attempted to harm them. The Bear Cookies would replicate the aggressor's attributes and transform into a small bear to protect its young wearer.

However, the toy had its drawbacks. It required the laughter of children to charge, and if not sufficiently powered, the bear couldn't complete the replication. Additionally, the stronger the aggressor's attributes, the shorter the bear's active duration.

Every Oak Owl child wore a Bear Cookies pendant, and even after they outgrew its protection, most Oak Owls kept their Bear Cookies as a cherished keepsake—unless they were utterly destitute and forced to sell it.
