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

More than a year had passed, but Rita was once again doing some shopping for Eclipse Vanguard.

She and Nivalis had spent a few days in the Marmang world and had accumulated quite a bit of sea shells. They also had a better understanding of the purchasing power of these sea shells. Based on the price of equipment, items, and skills, the purchasing power of one sea shell was roughly equivalent to one gold coin.

In the Marmang underwater world, many small items and cheap goods were directly exchanged for fish or shrimp. They had their own set of exchange standards, where different fish or shrimp had different values. The exchange rates and ratios were incredibly complex for Rita and Nivalis, but for the local players, it was an everyday transaction. A simple glance would tell them if the trade was fair or not, which was incomprehensible for players from other worlds.
