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

When Rita regained consciousness, she realized that there were only 47 days left until she could exit the Tower. She had been unconscious for 10 whole days! She immediately checked which skill she had lost this time.

It was another B-grade skill—Break Time!

She felt lucky that it was a skill she could afford to lose. She had accumulated over 40 B-grade attack skills in the Tower over the years, so losing two of them wasn't much of a loss. Plus, with the Dandelion Blow skill that Maple Syrup had helped her acquire, the need for Break Time was already quite minimal.

At the moment, due to her "foolishness," she was assigned to clean the battlefield of corpses. Rita continued to maintain this "foolish" persona, spending her days either cleaning up or sneaking stat points. Whenever she saw a Divine Gift that could save her life, she would try to acquire it, aiming to raise her strength so she could protect herself.
