The Villainess Always Dies (I'm screwed!)
Community Rating
Description
==Currently being rewritten==Thank you commenters for all the advice you've given. I decided to go back and rewrite and add several chunks to the first half of the story before starting the school arc. :)
Update: Chapters 1-4 are edited. There will be an additional arc added later.... Not quite sure how that's going to work out with what's already there but we'll cross that bridge when we get to it.
I'll get revenge on my own terms!
After experiencing near-death from the plague, Lucina Maelle remembers her previous life as a teenage girl with a heart condition. That girl's favorite video game? Dragon Fantasy XXIV. And who is the wicked villainess from that game, who suffers a horrific death at the hands of the hero? She is!
With that knowledge in mind, the solution is simple-- just don't become a villainess. Easier said than done, for even the gods protest her desire for a virtuous life. No matter how Lucina attempts to thwart her future, to ensure justice is achieved, she must go down the path of villainy.
Thus, the only solution is to become the ultimate villainess! First, find Valerian, her favorite character who is voiced by her favorite voice actor. He's a part of the hero's party but so long as she meets him first, she knows she can turn him over to her side! Second, become so strong that the hero's party has no chance of defeating her. Third, await the events of the game to begin and spit in the face of gods and fate!Updates Tuesday and Saturday

- ruford42Royal Road★★★★ 3.5I just found this and binged the first ten chapters. So far, I'm enjoying the story enormeously -- so far, the story is still early on and is dealing with the MC's back story and childhood while giving us an introduction to the video game themed world.
I think even readers who aren't familiar with the Dragon Fantasy game series by Rhombus Diversions -- or it's IRL, copyrighted counterpart, will have no problem envisioning the world, even as it's outlined in broad strokes.
There are no glaring errors in spelling or grammar, always a plus -- and more importantly, there is a steady flow of progression as we follow the main character.
