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

If she ever got tied up elsewhere, and the sea forces launched a full assault, even with Nivalis and Whitebone Black Jade by her side, it would be impossible to deal with so many high-level invaders in time.

Rita wasn't planning to touch the ones making noise on the surface—BS players needed a healthy dose of danger. Too much peace would only breed uselessness. She wasn't about to underestimate player potential.

But the elite players and beasts lurking in the deep sea? Those, she could start clearing out in advance.

Leaving the alchemy workshop, she glanced at the half-finished defense tower rising next to the villa. Nivalis, now in her shrunken form, was up there hammering away at the structure.

Rita tapped the helm lightly and reappeared in the villa's living room.

Not long after, Nivalis flew in through the window. She swooped over to the table and grabbed an iced drink, only to spot B8017913 curled up on the couch playing games.
