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

On the other end of the phone, Shadow.Q's voice remained calm:

"So, do you still have Moon Sand? We'd like to purchase some."

Rita leaned back against the headboard, relaxing as she replied lazily,

"I do. But I need it myself and won't be selling."

When it came to Eclipse Vanguard, traditional lies—no matter how cleverly constructed—were useless. The organization was filled with experts, not to mention specialized skills like [Is That True?!], a unique ability Rita had seen Brooks use before.

That skill allowed the user to discern the truth behind any information, whether spoken, written, or even a prediction. If Eclipse Vanguard didn't already possess a similar skill, it was likely they had developed something equivalent. Lying was pointless—any attempt would be sniffed out instantly.

Yes, she had Moon Sand in her possession. So what?
