Synopsis

*Character illustrations in the auxiliary chapter.*



Born and raised as a nameless shadow guard for his kingdom’s crown prince, his life’s purpose was to be used and discarded at the whims of his liege.



And his meaningless life ended when the gaze of a princess lingered on him for too long. The crown prince had him beheaded without a second thought, as if throwing out trash.



Transmigrating into the body of a baby girl, the nameless shadow finally had a name, a family, and a place to call her own. Throwing away his past, the shadow guard was now called ‘Emilia’, and walked on a new path to seek fulfillment.



It was not meant to be, however, as the girl whom she had loved with all her heart and soul ended up mercilessly plunging a dagger through Emilia's love-struck heart at the highest point in her life.



The crowd clamored at the ‘deserved death of the villainess’, and at that moment, the shadow could only wonder… why?



Why am I always the one to dedicate myself fully to someone, only to be thrown away like trash in the end?



And thus, as her soul floated away while cursing in resentment, ‘Emilia’ vowed to herself that in her next life she shall never be the one to fully dedicate herself.



Whatever she likes shall be held in her palm, and shall never escape!



The moment the vow was made, a self-proclaimed villainess system proposed to partner with her, to explore and conquer the worlds through their anchors—the heroes and heroines.



And by cultivating this energy, she shall one day go back. Back to the world she was born as ‘Emilia’ in, and face the so-called heroine once more.



The second time they meet, Emilia won’t be the one drowning in regret!

Disclaimer: Long time yuri fan, have read over 100 yuri books alone, most of my read history is gl. Now that I made this clear, it's obvious I'm a little biased. But I still think this is 100% worth the read. The characters of both Cynthia (the system) and Emilia (the mc) are superbly done and their interaction is adorable. Even with other characters. It looks like the main plot will take a while? but I think it should be worth it. Btw compared to your other book the dialogues here are definitely better. Maybe the less serious undertone or maybe just the MC is personality being different. I just like it ig. [img=update]

This is truly an enjoyable read! Writing quality is great (I didn't notice anything that broke my immersion in the story). The character interactions are done really well and there is plenty of humor as well. Just read the first couple of chapters and decide whether you like it not. Author please keep updating (daily if possible). This is definitely a high quality story that I want to see through till the end 😊

Oh yes I'm finally doing a review. First of all writing style. I like it, and I like it a lot (with a few exceptions), there are few grammar mistakes. It's in neatly arranged paragraphs, well most of it anyways. The only complaint I have about it is that character speech is separate from the paragraph, since it reduces the amount of content and potential physical movements and reaction when writing a conversation. So, 4.2/5 Next, Stability of Updates. Nothing needs to be said about this. It's updates every day. 5/5 Story Development wise, it's going a bit slow for a non-SoL (which, as of current, the story should be tagged as such since it seems to be a Slice of Life currently), but excluding that. The pacing is mostly fine. Nothing much to talk about here. 3.8/5 The story is mostly at the beginning, so there's not a lot to talk about World Building wise. But what we've seen so far has been pretty good, so for now I'll give it a 4/5 Character Design, oh how much I have to talk about in this topic. Let's go over the protagonist first; Emilia. She's a character alright, a scheming and possessive girl worthy of being called a villainess. Currently, as of chapter 61 she's still staying true to her character. And I really like her, as a protagonist since there's not many "Evil" Protagonist stories. And even then most of them are either full on ero, just idiotic, or has really bad writing but people think it's good. So this is a change I appreciate. Also, the system is actually something fun to have around and life-like for once, which is simply great. (Also Cynthia x Emilia for the win) Then we have the support characters, what brings a story to life. The current arcs supporting cast is basically a bunch of misfit; a knight complex simp, a siscon elder sister, a pure heroine who's not really as pure as you think, an idiot for a hero, etc. The cast is good enough that the story doesn't seem bland, even when the protagonist is out of the picture in that POV. I would say that it's the best aspect of the story. 6/5 TLDR; If you want to enjoy a good villainess story that isn't so cliché for once, this is for you. If you love and adore yuri, this is for you. If you want to see the "good" side suffer, this is for you. And if not, I still recommend you check it out, because this is simply an amazing story. Overall score; 4.6

the first 70 chapters are great, honestly really good read but after that for the next 80 chapter (i read till 150) the pacing becomes terrible it feels like you changed lane from a road right into a swamp that just drags you down. The main plot doesn't really advance there is some progress on the romance but that's also pretty slow since there are like ten girls which are being seduced simultaneously and the plot focuses heavily on side quests which are well written but ultimately are pretty minor when it comes to overall impact especially in contrast to the first chapters. The schemes are exceedingly well written and besides for Cynthia which i find purely annoying every character is pretty fun and unique. Definitely give this one a try and see if it fits your taste you won't regret it

If you like slow burning books, this is your wet dream. This book burns like water. The plot very rarely progresses. The book is supposed to be a world-hopping book, but so far we’ve only seen one world. It’s too slow for me, which sucks because I really liked this book when it was progressing. This author really should be a writer for one piece because they can write for days and not progress an inch into the story. I want to skip to the end of the first arc, but somewhere in the 300+ chapters I skipped a few things happened and I’m not gonna bother to sift through the filler to find something that actually matters. I’d have better luck trying to find a drop of freshwater in the middle of the ocean. TL;DR: god this story is slow.

A great story with good character development and smart MC. I love to see MC flirting and showing his possessive side (yandere). 🔪 -------

I'm a fan of Yuri especially, Quick Transmigation/ World Hopping (I don't know if it considered Quick tho 😂). MC is quite naive sometimes which is pretty charming for me. No wonder she was betrayed (?). How can we not love this smart and id..t at the same time haha. She acts like manipulative character and I think she is! but also a caring one not totally blackened (yet?). The first world doesn't really have dark schemes and somehow light, pretty enjoyable to read, but I know she will soon leave and I'm reluctant to part to this world, Author is giving time and attention for the first arc that makes me attached to the characters, I don't know if I can let go easily. I love the fluff moments as well as the interaction of other female characters. Well, looking forward for the next chapters, Goodluck author Shojou-Ai for the win haha.

I was originally expecting a novel akin to "Coming of the villain boss" and "The final boss is no joke." The start was quite good and has a lot of potential but overtime it has started to become a slowburn fanservice novel. Instead of plot advancement, several continous chapters are spent with flirting, teasing, and getting chummy2 with the female characters. By chapter 190+, she was not even close to being at the top of 'that world.' Now here's the thing, the intro said there are many worlds out there. How many chapters will that make? How boring will it become by then? Author should've considered plot advancement first and foremost like getting 1 to 3 girls per world instead of making it into some sort of yuri slice of life (In the first world no less). To put it simply, I just can't picture out the future of this novel. It was like the novel itself is some sort of fan service comedy. Anyways, I was quite disappointed since I've read the other novel 'Rebirth of evelyn knox' was it? Now that was certainly good, with clear plotline and all. Anyways, Ciao!

Absolutely delightful. One of the best novels in terms of character design/development I've ever read. All of the important ones from MC to love interests, villains/antagonists to even minor side character is fully-fledged out, feels alive, and is unique. Definitely recommend reading it!
