“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

When Stella finally spoke with fellow students she realized that some of them had been training for more than six years.  There were people who were Hendrick's age and more.

The students could apparently keep learning magic in the temple until they believe they have learned everything that they could or their teachers declare that they were now eligible magicians and could leave the temple.

Likewise, once they were declared eligible magicians, they could now learn from the elders while they perform their duties as a magician. Depending on their improvement, they could learn from Prince Fabian and finally, the Grand Magus.

And of course, those who were able to study under the elders and above had higher pay when they were hired.

'I see. It's like a promotion system,' Stella nodded in approval. She heard magicians earn even higher than knights due to their small numbers.
