After her rebirth, Rita vows not to repeat her past mistakes. This time, her first priority is to stop her brother, who is about to marry into the Lopez family, from participating in the initial game beta test. In her previous life, she was deceived by this scheming brother until her dying breath. It was only at the end that she realized she was merely a villain in a male-oriented novel about a live-in son-in-law, with all the malice and manipulation orchestrated by him behind the scenes.

In this life, Rita decides to change the rules of the game. She will stay in the shadows and seize all the opportunities meant for the male and female leads. By participating in the beta test and re-selecting her abilities, she systematically dismantles the protagonists’ advantages, all while making them believe she’s on their side.

Rita has no intention of harming innocent people, nor is she a selfless saint. In this game, she works with the authorities for mutual benefit, all to achieve her ultimate goal—becoming the true master of her fate.

This Life, I Will Be the Protagonist

Rita thought the centuries ahead would be a grueling experience, but as she immersed herself in learning the art of cooking, it felt like time had passed in the blink of an eye.

Thirteen more years went by. Rita, now deeply absorbed in alchemy, glanced at the time, asked Nivalis to return to the pet space, and then lay back, resting her head on her arm, listening to the distant sounds of celebration marking the end of the war.

When she opened her eyes again, she found herself transformed into a young Maple Owl, lying on the back of a Maple Owl girl. The girl's orange-red wings were slightly raised, sheltering the tiny Rita from the wind.

The Maple Owl girl said, "Maple Burn, don't make your sister angry, she's really tired."

Rita blinked, her eyes widening as she read the information on the girl. **Maple Cang???**
