“If I am going to die anyway, I would rather be a villainess or turn the story upside down,” Yeong-ja vowed vengefully.

Kim Yeong-ja was an avid reader who had read thousands upon thousands of books. She had often wished to be transmigrated as the main character of her favorite novels.

But one day, she suddenly woke up as the best friend of the female lead of a badly written novel where she had to die so the female lead and male lead could have their happy ending.

“Why do I have to die for them to be together?”

Yeong-ja was furious that of all the good books that she had read, she had to be transmigrated in the novel 'Loving My Forever’ where all other characters were made merely to make the main character look good regardless of plot holes.

Since she was a patient reader, Yeong-ja continued to read the whole novel despite how bad it was. She also wanted to know what would happen to the female lead’s best friend named Stella. Only to realize that Stella was killed off in the end.  

Now that she was Stella and knows of the future, Yeong-ja planned to change it if she could; even if she had to make the author furious.

First, she had to make sure she survives her death flag. But how will she do it when upon transmigrating, she finds that Stella was already dying?

Join Yeong-ja in her efforts to live and survive as a character inside a book. Would she be able to change her fate or was her destiny set in stone the way the author wanted?

Reversing Predestined Fate

The Great Sage applied a spell so Stella won't be able to use the mana he released to protect her. As such, Stella could only use her own mana now.

She sighed in relief as she returned to the Grand Magus who was restlessly waiting for her. He was pacing around when she was teleported back to the training room.

"What did his holiness say?" he asked excitedly once he spotted her.

Stella then relayed the situation as per the Great Sage's explanation and the Grand Magus' eyes suddenly glowed. She realized that he was analyzing her and was probably looking for traces of the sage's magic.

"Amazing! How did I miss this? I can barely see His Holiness' mana leaking from the necklace. But then it vanishes. I can't detect any trace of his mana in your body at all. How could this be? Can I look closer?" the Grand Magus asked with so much fervor that Stella was creeped out. He was looking at her as an experimental subject.
