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

— "Avery… she's your biological aunt."

— "But she was adopted into the main family when she was young."

Rita's expression went blank for a few seconds, then suddenly, it all made sense.

No wonder Avery was the leader of Eclipse Vanguard in this life.

In her past life, Rick was also strong, but his rise wasn't this fast.

Back then, he spent his early years fighting for power in S City, building his influence. It wasn't until he roped in The Taylor Family, The White Family, and The Lopez Family that he finally dominated S City—enough to suppress the Special Affairs Bureau there.

And as a live-in son-in-law, Rick had to stay in the shadows until he was strong enough to flip the table.

His strength wasn't dazzling enough to shock people.

And he was too deeply entangled with The Lopez Family, The White Family, and The Taylor Family.
