Mana was a brilliant young lawyer working for the biggest international law firm in the world. With her prodigious talents, influential family and a perfect fiancé, her life was considered a dream come true…until a freak accident cost her everything. Or so she thought. After three years of being confined to a hospital bed, the man she had loved with all her heart told her about his betrayal as he slit her throat.

The next moment, Mana found herself in the body of a sickly ten-year-old princess of the same name, in a world she thought to be fictional. “The Legend of Mars” was an ancient epic chronicling the adventures of the divine King Mars and his virtuous wife, Queen Astra, and their triumph over the evil, half-demon emperor Raven. Princess Mana was the unfortunate half-sister of Princess Astra, who died at the age of ten…and somehow pulled in Mana’s soul.

And thus, Royal Princess Mana decided to make the best of her new chance at life and seek happiness. However, she soon found that what she had read in “The Legend of Mars” and the actual people she met were very different. Why was the divine child Mars an insufferable brat? Why was the virtuous Astra plotting nefarious schemes? Why did the brother of Mars look exactly like her traitorous fiancé of her previous life? And the meek little boy she accidentally rescued was actually the fearsome evil emperor …? But why on earth was he clinging to her and looking at her with puppy eyes?

The Evil Emperor's Fragile Heart

In the end, Princess Astra shouted at them for a bit, but then realised that this time, no matter how pitiful she acted, her Papa didn't look like he was going to take her side at all – he didn't even say anything to Mana, even though the horrible little girl had slapped her so hard!

So, Astra looked pitifully at Mars, who was still under the influence of the drug.

"Mars…" she cried, tears pouring down her cheeks. "They are bullying me! No one cares about me except you! Mars, you have to avenge me for the insult just now! You have to slap Mana until she's half dead!"

Mars immediately sprung into action, but then, he stopped abruptly and coughed up blood.

Astra looked as shocked as Mars at this sudden development. She immediately supported him and asked anxiously, "Mars, what is wrong?"
