Chapter 8: QNA and Chapter 1.8 Preview

This is made in celebration of the overall success of the story on web novel, scribble hub, and royal road. I am very happy and shocked this has gotten such a positive response on multiple sites even if it's small. This was intended to be just a side project to the Mad Sorceress's Daughter to give me a break. But this story has really sucked me in and I plan to get volume 1 done by spring. To clear the air some things, here is a QNA on important plot points that may affect your readability of the story.

Was this made to bash isekai novels with male leads?

No. I felt this may seem the case but I enjoy male-lead novels. However, I wanted to put a novel out there where the female protagonist is in control. Leila can not be male as most of the character is an evil villainess who happens to be in a novel with a stereotypical male isekai lead. 

Why is Leila so evil if she's a teenager in our world?

I wanted to showcase that most people would see characters in a world they played/read of as not real. Leila is evil to the reader and these characters but she sees it as just that...book characters.

Why is there hinted incest?

It was planned early on due to the fact the most common criticism in female-focused isekai is incest! And how the MC never uses it to her advantage hello you are a moral-free villain lose the grandstanding. Incest can be handled if written well, plus Leila doesn't see Cleo's family as hers. She just sees a weird guy into his sister in a very weird way she can use to eventually kill him. She doesn't care about him or feel attracted to him.

Is there romance?

In classic otome isekai fashion, yes.

Will there be a harem and progression fantasy aspects as the tags promise?

Yes.

How low will Leila go to get back to our world?

Very low. This novel is made for you to root for Leila but not like her. She has only one goal and that's to get revenge on everyone no matter the consequences.

Chapter 1.8 Preview

"Sister stop!" Her brother pulled her body to his chest and shielded her from the world. She saw his expression as he did so. His guilt was laid bare to the world as he held her. 

The man was disgusting. He would've been filled with joy at Cleo's original death. The sister who was always put above him was slain like a pig. Her body would be trash to him that he would ignore. Cleo was a conquest to show his parents who were the better of the two. That euphoric high was gone as her body lay against his. To see firsthand the torture she had gone through by her former lover pained him. And the knowledge that he wanted it to happen made the man sick as she cried. It was perfect, Leila made sure to meet his disturbed gaze and hold onto it. She wanted to see the light in his eyes be snuffed out as reality hit him. 

Personally, she didn't have anything against him. But she had something against cowards who didn't think things through. Any of Cleo's brothers could have saved her. They could have fought for her freedom as her parents had. But they stood by and never visited her during her imprisonment. When Leila felt that whip slice away at her body, they were nowhere to be found. The character is written as a nobleman neglected by a cold mother and a careless father. He forgot all his morals to wait for his little sister to crumble. The original Cleo wrote each of her brother's letters and they burned them.
