The Empress of Fiat: A Villainess's Financial Dominion

From the bustling financial city of Shenzhen, Lin Yi, a genius of economics who deeply understands money—from old bartering, the shine of gold, to the weakness of fiat currency—wakes up in the body of a minor villainess in a Korean otome novel with a European Duke/Duchess setting. Her new name is Lady Madea Volkov.



In this world of magic swords and mana, where power is tracked by a simple system (though Madea doesn't get quests and just "stacks" levels), Lin Yi's huge goals remain: absolute wealth, immortality, eternal youth, and endless power. She sees this new world as a massive chessboard. With a brain that can break down how even the smartest CEOs work and a tongue as sharp as a CIA agent's for persuasion, she'll dig into every plot detail of the novel, every financial trick, and every secret of power. What's more, she'll exploit the system itself, taking 90% of the experience points from every subordinate, monster killed, and quest completed by others, to speed up her own rise.



However, her plan gets complicated when she meets the novel's original heroine, Lady Elara Roseline, who has also been transmigrated by Kang Minji. This starts a thrilling game of financial cat-and-mouse and complex plots that shake the very foundations of this new world. Lin Yi isn't just a jealous villainess; she is the Empress of Fiat, ready to rewrite destiny with a golden pen.
