After reincarnating as the villainess of the otome game Fortune Lover and spending the last ten years dodging Catastrophic Bad Ends, Katarina Claes believed she was finally in the clear... Alas, the game has a sequel.


Katarina was looking forward to a peaceful career at the Magical Ministry, interspersed with sunny days spent tilling the earth of her vegetable garden-but fate has now brought her new potential Bad Ends and an array of new powers befitting a villainess. The latest threat emerges in the form of a power-hungry nobleman seeking to exert influence over the Kingdom of Sorcié's royal family. Meanwhile, a challenger appears to contest Katarina's protracted engagement to Prince Jeord! What's more, this rival turns out to be someone Katarina knows very well...

Chapter 1: Everyday Life


A little girl was running around the garden of Claes Manor as the warm sunlight poured down from above. I, Katarina Claes, felt my own heart brighten just by watching her enjoy herself.

On my day off from the Magical Ministry, I sat down in a chair placed in the garden, and soaked in the soothing sight of this child, while eating the sweets that had been prepared on the table in front of me. How can I even express what a wonderful time I was having?

In order to strengthen my magic, I started tilling a field. I honed my skills in swordplay. And I dedicated myself to crafting increasingly realistic toy snakes. Seven years later, I finally entered the Academy of Magic, the stage for the game’s story, and met the game’s heroine, Maria.

Bring it on, Bad Ends! Or so I eagerly thought, but though the game produced its share of crises, it concluded with a Friendship End, and I was able to avoid each of the Bad Ends unscathed.

After moving up to the next grade, I faced several strange incidents such as kidnappings (my brother’s and my own), but I solved these problems too, and was eventually able to graduate from the academy and enter employment at the Magical Ministry.

Now then, it’s time to do my best as a working member of society! I thought to fire myself up, but then there came a shocking revelation. Believe it or not,Fortune Lover had a sequel. Its title wasFortune Lover II: Love at the Magical Ministry. In this ga
