I became the villainess stepmother who is doomed to suffer greatly in the hands of the male lead, who will return as a tyrant due to his years of child abuse.... more>>

I can’t die like this. No, I was determined to survive.

However… Why does avoiding a gruesome fate seem so easy?

And, to make matters worse, my husband began to obsess over me. <<less

My role in the novel begins with the appearance of the heroine: the woman who’ll change the life of the male lead. To sum it up, I’m supposed to cling to him and beg for his affection. The original Erika was a nasty ex-girlfriend.... more>>

I didn’t want to be a s*upid villainess, so I put myself first and distanced myself from him… And yet, 3 years later, this very man reappeared in front of me. What a strange thing… This shouldn’t be happening…

“I don’t think I can do this without you. I still like you.”

What is this…? I’m not the woman you’re supposed to be obsessed with!

And coincidentally, Zion – Leonardo’s best friend – has been acting strangely. I felt sorry for his fate as the sub-main character, so I’ve comforted him often… but have I gone too far?

“I like being with you. I like you. Everything will be better if you’re by my side.”

… I’m not the character you should like. I’m merely a villainous supporting character, and yet the men of the novel quickly begin to confess! Who should I choose? <<less

She was reborn as a wicked woman whose throat was cut at the execution while trying to poison the heroine.... more>>

‘This is a chance to survive.’

In order to live, she did not show up in social gatherings and remained silent until the beginning of the original story.

By the way...

I didn’t expect to meet the great villain that I wanted to avoid so much at the first party I attended.

“You’ve taken my first time, so you have to take responsibility for me. ”

I only slept while holding your hand, but now I’m taking responsibility for you?!

“Don’t leave me, Merria.”

Until now.

I tried to break up after pretending to be in a relationship for a while, but why are you so sad? <<less

I was reincarnated into a ducal military household that held the protection of the country on its shoulders. I, who had possessed clairvoyance, saw a fragmentary future. Thus I knew that I possessed no combat prowess. It was my younger brother who had, and because of that, this would create an unnecessary fight for successor…... more>>

“If I don’t have it then it can’t be helped,” before any needless conflict arise, I thought to run away from home, but… <<less

Rachel only became the fiancée of the Prince due to her high magic power. That's why when the Saint appeared, she feared that her position would be taken away from her. ... more>>

As a punishment for her vile deed against the Saint, her engagement was annulled and she was banished to the monastery. But on the way to the monastery, she was attacked by bandits. Just as Rachel thought she was about to die, she suddenly woke up and found out that she had returned to three years ago.

However, she no longer had her high magic power and became so sickly that she could hardly even sit up in her bed. Rachel was just happy that she was alive and decided to cancel the engagement; yet for some reason, the Prince refused!? <<less

Having wandered the borders of life and death because my younger sister lost control of her magic, I remembered that this world was the otome game 「Sparkle like a Jewel」. And I, Langlease Jackberry, am the villainess’ brother.... more>>

I want to evade the destiny of destruction that I remembered. I’ll watch over my cute younger sister so that she’ll become an ordinary girl instead of a villainess, and at the very least avert her death if ruin so unluckily falls.

The BAD END routes for the villainess are split into three general types.

1) Destruction Route

As a villainess, my sister brought about the Prince’s displeasure when incidents of her bullying the Heroine came to light.

With his impropriety exposed and his peerage revoked, Father was exiled out of the country.

2) su*cide Route

My sister, who had truly loved the Prince, shocked that the Prince had announced the cancellation of their engagement at the party, committed su*cide.

In this route, it is only my sister that dies, and my family and I are not condemned.

3) Jewel Route

The END that could be said to be the centerpiece of the game. My sister, having displeased the Prince, was sentenced to be turned to a jewel with magic. She had been turned into a jewel the same color as her eyes. She was shattered to pieces in front of everyone. With pink jewels dancing in the midst, the still of the smiling Prince and Heroine was beautiful.

However, it was my sister’s life that was smashed.

I will absolutely never permit that kind of future for her.

Presently, perhaps owing to her young age, her personality did not resemble in the slightest that of the template domineering, ill-tempered villainess in the game.

She was kind and with a deep compassion, to the point where she was loved completely by the servants. Naturally I also thought of her as someone precious.

Though I want to avoid the BAD END completely, I’ll work so that I can avoid at the worst the second and third routes where my sister dies and provide a viable lifestyle even after ruin.

To continue living with my sister and my family. <<less

After a failed attempt at killing the heroine in the original novel, she died miserably.... more>>

She did her best to put some distance between her and the two male leads and lived as if they were dead.

But

“Sister, why did you suddenly…….”

His eyes grew wretched and began to shake. Transparent tears began to trickle down from those pained eyes.

“Why are you addressing me so formally…? Do you hate me now?”

What the hell, I never expected this to happen. The more I avoided them, the more obsessed they became.

In addition

“Master, I know that I have a soft spot when it comes to you.”

The moonlight shone onto his white hair.

“But you know, I won’t give in to just anybody…….”

Bearing dark red eyes, he continued his words, tapping his fingers on his chest in a very steady pace.

“My heart is in so much pain.”

“…….”

“That’s not right?”

Even the men who weren’t involved in the original novel started to twist.

Stop it! That’s raising a death flag…! <<less

Will Scarlett’s wish to be dumped come true, or will all of her plans backfire?

When the villain was young, she became Extra #1 who deceived him and sold him as a s*ave.
This girl, who was suffering from an incurable disease, tried to buy painkillers by selling him, but later dies miserably by the villain’s hand.... more>>

Fortunately, he had not been sold yet, so let’s kick the s*ave traders first.

Even as a 12-year-old orphan, I took great care of a 12-year-old villain.
Even though he was young, he was wary of me until the time of parting came, perhaps because he was the villain.
Fortunately, I was able to get a promise not to be killed.

And the day the villain family came to take him back finally came.

“……Are you telling me to go away?”
“If there is a place to return to, you have to go. Stay healthy and don't die easily. Understand?"

After somehow sending away the villain who kept staring at me persistently, I turned around and vomited blood.

“Others?”

Damian’s eyes, who were always soft at my questions, quickly became sharp.

“It’s not right, Ellie. You’re looking for a man other than your husband.”

“No way. I’m so jealous, I might kill him.”

I looked at my father-in-law to ask for help.

I became a villainess of the novel I was reading.... more>>

To hell with the original story! I had to try and survive first.

“I’ve waited for 100 years just to meet you.”

The man who had hidden his identity as the Demon King and was the driving force behind the invasion.

I am Kujouin Reiko, a poor lady living without my parents. My Grandmother, who died 2 months ago was a self-indulgent Ojou-sama, who actually has no ability to look after herself. My Father left the infant me after having led the Kujouin family to ruin, and is still missing. It was my Grandmother's maid, Fuki-san, who brought me up. Thanks to Fuki-san, I was able to acquire the ability to look after myself. Meanwhile, my Grandmother, whose pride was tall enough to tower over Mt. Everest, instilled in me disciplines that the daughter of the Kujouin family ought to have. She sat up a piano in our modest rented house and gave me strict guidance.... more>> She did the same for dance, manners, and language too. My Grandmother had been studying piano in Europe for a long time.

She makes sure I stay away from her childhood friends (whom she called, 'capture targets'), and makes great effort to stick the heroine, Yuuki Miu, and the capture target, Takanashi Ryou, together.

Though he is a broken knight, with him, I must try and rebel once again. <<less

The ‘villain of the otome game’, who is this referring to?... more>>

“Of course it’s me, Yukina.”

Then, what is this ‘villain’ referring to?

“One who interferes with the romance of the heroine with petty harassment and misdeeds, the type of person who’ll be hated by everyone.”

If so, why are there so many capturable targets gathering around you?

“…… I’m the one who wants to ask that… hurry up and lose your hearts to the heroine…”

Even the ‘heroine’ you were talking about seems to like you, why is that so?

“That’s precisely what I want to know!!” <<less
