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

The battlefield chat was still buzzing about Pine Bloom.

Ever since Sakura·Oolong said, "Could it be her divine talent skill got penalized?", everyone had been watching and waiting. Not just him—plenty of players glued to the channel were waiting for a reply. But Pine Bloom remained silent.

Even when Sakura·Oolong baited her with a casual, "Well, I feel a lot better now," she still didn't respond.

At that point, everyone more or less had their suspicions.

[Lania Kaia·Fat Goose]: No way! BS Rita, come on, spill it—did you really get Pine Bloom's divine gift skill?!

[Sakura·Yii]: Oolong, did you get killed by BS Rita too?

[Sakura·Oolong]: Reflected damage. Took myself out.

[Lania Kaia·Maple Syrup]: Pine Bloom, you good? I remember the last time you cried was when you were 17.

[Blazing Flame·A-Pie]: I was still playing with mud at Tier 7...

[Tingo·JE]: I've said it before—BS Rita is nothing but trouble!
