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

"Somehow, I feel that there is more to Minister Naja's conspiracies than what we saw," Mana said to Raven after the trial was over and they were taken to the imperial guestrooms.

The preparations for a grand banquet to celebrate their engagement was underway, and everyone was happy and busy.

Raven's popularity had shot through the roof in the Obsidian Kingdom, and Mana was quite popular as well.

Raven, too, had his doubts, but there was nothing to be done at the moment, and he said as much to Mana.

Mana sighed and nodded, and then smiled. "Well, let's enjoy the banquet in the evening, then, and if anyone tries to create any trouble, we have enough and more strength to deal with them!" she said cheerfully.

Raven could only smile in response.

On the other side of the imperial palace, Crown Princess Pica, General Aquila and King Corvus were busy supervising the banquet preparations.
