I’m a Villain, But I’m Favored

Description

Links are NOT allowed. Format your description nicely so people can easily read them. Please use proper spacing and paragraphs.

I died at the end of an overtime shift due to overwork.

My last words were, ‘This fxcked-up world can go to hell for all I care!’

Who would have known?

After that, my second life began in the game I was playing.

God apparently had some conscience left, and I was given a rare ability.

I thought I could live an easy life with the ability to read information from targets.

However…

[To the player who wished for the world’s destruction after experiencing such great trials, hope is given. The system will assist the player in creating a ‘ruined world.’]

Bring about the world’s destruction.

– Reward for success: Divinity acquisition

– Penalty for failure: ???

How could my life here be fxcked-up, too?!

I see the other review saying romance ruined the story when this novel genre is romance fantasy. What do you expect?

1. Complaining about the FL not ruining the world and becoming a villain when the system telling her to do a genocide by spreading poison and diseases, be a war criminal, mu*der a child, cause a famine and letting people getting killed by monsters. If you were in her place you will do that considering you have moral?

2. Also, FL did not break men heart coz in the first place... more>> she drew a line to those men. Only 1 out of 3 men has a decent personality and it's the ML.
Spoiler

The magician tried to k*ll her many times and she almost die if it's not because of the protective shawl while the crown prince has a tr*sh personality treat people like bugs because of inferiority complex and almost kill the maid by throwing something on her head. He has a character development but I think he will never change if it's not because of the FL plan with guilt tripping and some reverse psychology in it. I love this part tbh coz it's not like the other novel with FL saying sweet words just to woo a grownass man acting like a brat.

[collapse]
So I wonder why woman getting the blame coz she don't want to reciprocate their feelings. It's not her fault they fell in love with her. You don't like her attitude because she not your typical FL? MC has priorities and dating is not included there. She's not dense. Mind you her eyes can see people thoughts through status window. Do we really read the same novel coz???? She's just pretending not know coz she felt everything is like a game. She's actually smart and cunning. She's also a strong minded and not a weak hearted person.

3. ML is not a simp. He respect FL boundary and never force her to do anything that she don't like. He always want to protect her. He fell inlove with her because she is like him who is never greedy with power and has integrity. He is actually the greenest among green flag.

You are misleading people with your review actually coz you are complaining without knowing what you read and thought it is an action fantasy story.

This is one of the best novel for me even koreans rated this highly in kakaopage considering they are picky readers and criticize everything a lot. I enjoyed it so much and no chapter is boring. I love the FL and ML combination. Both are written well. The world building is good.

  • Give a try if you like romance fantasy with strong indifferent FL always outsmarting system in a game concept novel by turning everything on her side. She's really the epitome of "the tables have been turned"

The story was pretty good, until the romance became more prominent and ruined everything.

What I didn't like:

    1. I don't really like how the FL is trying to save the world instead of destroying it, following the system's quests. Even more so when the rewards for destroying the world is better than saving it. When I read the summary I thought it was going to be a villain MC story. It was misleading
    1. I feel so bad for the numerous men who gets their heart broken by the... more>> FL, all because she's dense and have no boundaries. I really hate this type of MC.
        1. There's a background character I really hate :D. Like girl didn't learn her lesson and still did the same thing?!
          Spoiler

          FL's friend Lyra got kidnapped once because she decided to take a short cut to go home. And guess what she does again? Going into another dark, eerie alley to use a shortcut :D Genuinely, I want to curse her out so bad. Girl really didn't learn her lesson. And she even had the audacity to pray that the FL would save her?! (Like the first time) I got triggered somehow, lol

          [collapse]
        1. I REALLY hate how the author portrayed the romance in the later stages. Ok, sure, there's 2 male interest for most of the story revolving around solving disasters. But then they kept adding more? And the worst thing is that because the white hair guy is clearly the male lead, they had no chances since the begining so it seems like they are just there to suffer an unrequited love.
        1. The way the author write about the relationships between characters irks me. Like someone appear for a few chapters, before disappearing for 50 or so chapters and reappearing? I had to force myself to remember who they were.
          Spoiler

          a boy MC will adopt (kinda?) He was barely mentioned than suddenly he was adopted? I didn't even know who he was cuz MC never interacted with him directly except for like 1 sec but then she brought him home and let him live in her house? What-

          [collapse]
          and her friends too. They were very present in the earlier chapters but they gradually disappeared and somehow their friendships remained even though they haven't seen each other in months (a lot of chapters later)
      What I liked:

        1. The plot twist was so good?!? It's a bit hard to understand since I MTLed it but it solved the biggest mystery
        1. The ML was so cute at the begining, being such a simp for the FL but then it kinda derailed... Well in my personal opinion.
        1. The FL is very smart and is able to solves all the problems that come her way disasters. And because she also despair like a normal person, she doesn't seemed too OP (hell, even the system ability has downsides so the author did a great job at balancing her abilities).
        1. I liked how foes (kinda) become friends later on. I didn't expect them to be on amicable terms but somehow they are at the end?
          Spoiler

          at the start their relationship (between MC and princess) wasn't that good because princess wanted the throne but MC didn't agree with it (I think. It was at the start so I don't really remember) and then MC did some stuff that made the princess distrust her, but then once the MC helped princess to overthrow the emperor their relationship became better and at the end, after the main story stuff, she even acted as a wingwoman or MC and ML by making romance opportunity (like introducing a (BRIEF) love rival for MC)

          [collapse]
      All in all, I'll say this novel is pretty good and the romance is cute (?). It definitely is more developed in the last few chapters, along with many, many broken hearts... I really pity the second male lead (even though he tried to kill MC - there is a valid reason like saving the world ahem and kidnap her he was broken hearted ok especially when the MC kinda led him on). If not (ignoring the romance), it is a very interesting read on saving the world and finding loopholes in the system. Everything is also pretty much explained, so there isn't a lot of loopholes plot wise

I really wanted to rate this novel a 4.5 star but sadly, this site doesn't allow anything in between. The novel was very enjoyable even through MTL, with a cool and capable FL and very overpowered but somehow still relatable ML. No, ML does not become Emperor -- thank goodness.

About ML and FL:

... more>>
Spoiler

They have a very interesting and oddly sweet dynamic. Both of them are stuck in positions they don't like much but have to deal with regardless. FL (Baeksan or Minervina) is the prophesied Sage who can see the truth (no status window, she can just look at things and 'know') and has to deal with a 'System' telling her about various ways to cause the end of the world when she just wants it to stop. ML (really long name but is usually called Exarch or Exa) is in a position to become Emperor (current Emperor killed his dad, who would've become Emperor) but really doesn't want to take on the position. In addition to having a mutual understanding, it's super cute how they almost immediately take a liking to each other and... just can't stop themselves lol. Romance is very slow burn and no smut that I can see.

[collapse]

About FL as someone (not) dangling these MLs on a line:

Spoiler

As stated previously, FL actually draws very clear lines. It's not for nothing that she's compared to the ML (Exa), who is observed in the novel as being a gentle person but also the most ruthless -- anyone who doesn't get a chance knows it. Most of the novel, she's too busy attempting to stop the apocalypse to get in a proper relationship. And the only person she's consistently being cute with is Exa. In fact, most her moments with Exa keep getting interrupted by crises LOL. Probably why they can only properly get together towards the end of the novel.

[collapse]

About the potential MLs:

Spoiler

ML#1: Long-freaking-name Exarch, Exa is the nickname that FL calls him. An Archduke with royal blood and probably most suited to be Emperor but really, really doesn't want that position no matter what his crazy mu*derous tyrant Emperor uncle thinks. Very good to FL and respects her boundaries. Also 'blessed by the Goddess.'

ML#2: Prince Felix. He's not really one of the potential MLs imo. He's more like an ab*sed child led astray by his environment (see: crazy, mu*derous father), made mistakes, and didn't know how to fix things until FL gave him some guidance as a friend. He may have a bit of a crush on MC but even he knows it's not going anywhere.

ML#3: The Sophos (appraisal) Guild's master. I can't give him an accurate name because of MTL reasons, but this guy is a legendary archmage. He has a (bad, according to FL) warped personality. This may be because he's lived for so long that he doesn't really consider people as important, although he does care about keeping the world from destruction. He's convinced for a long time that FL was someone doomed to destroy the world and keeps testing her, until one moment in the novel when he realizes FL is serious about keeping the world from an apocalypse. He's the only one who really likes FL romantically aside from Exa and even confesses. FL immediately shoots him down once she realizes he's thinking of her that way.

Who becomes Emperor:

Spoiler

In an obvious but very nice twist, Princess Batilda becomes Emperor.
