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

Nivalis selected 20 languages that Rita didn't know from the Languages of All Races options.

But when she was about to select the last language, Nivalis hesitated and asked, "Should we choose Moon Fox Language?"

After all, they'd still need to trade with Mistblade for quite a while.

Rita shook her head. "No need. We've got translators outside, and on the battlefield, we can just use sign language with her. If the rules really include Moon Fox Language, we can trade with her directly."

Nivalis nodded. That made sense. No need for the language; they could continue their game of "Pictionary" with Mistblade instead.

After selecting the languages, Nivalis handed Rita a bowl containing something. "This is a gift from Snow Pile to thank you for looking after me."

Rita took the gift, a half dragon egg shell. To her surprise, it fit perfectly on her head!
