Ekaterina has settled well into her new life as the not-so-villainous villainess of an otome game. Perhaps a little too well, in fact! On top of spending most of her time thinking about her dear brother, she's become friends with the heroine, Flora, and the main love interest of the game, Prince Mikhail, whom she'd sworn never to approach. Ekaterina's not too worried, though, because she's on track to avoid the doom flags that threaten her family and the empire after successfully driving back the monster that attacked the academy. She's ready to kick back and take it easy when Alexei drops a bomb on her: the imperial family is about to visit their residence. How is she supposed to prepare for that?! Not to mention, she has to deal with her grandmother's remaining supporters and her first-ever exam season in this world! Forget about relaxation, Ekaterina has no time to spare!

Prologue: ICBM—Intercontinental Ballistic Message!


Despite her noble station, Ekaterina, the young lady of the House of Yulnova—one of the three grand ducal houses of the Yulgran Empire—ran to the kitchen almost every day to prepare lunch for her brother.

Said brother, Alexei, was already the head of the family at the young age of seventeen. In order to get through all of the work needed to govern a large duchy, Alexei borrowed a room at the Magic Academy where his subordinates joined him. They had much to do, and Ekaterina worried every day for her capable brother. With his overly serious personality, she feared he would drive himself to an early death from overwork.

The origin of her worries could be traced back to her memories of her previous life. Before being reborn as Ekaterina Yulnova, she had been Yukimura Rina, a systems engineer who’d died of overwork herself before she could even celebrate her thirtieth birthday. Her only solace in that life had been an otome game calledInfinity World: The Maiden of Salvation. More specifically, what she’d loved was one of the characters: the doting brother of the villainess. That character was not even one of the love interests, and he barely appeared, but that hadn’t stopped Rina from using every moment of her free time to play the game in order to catch a glimpse of him.

Two months ago, after suddenly recovering her memories, Rina had realized thatshe was the villainess of the game she’d spent so much time on.

Actually, saying that shewas Ekaterina was slightly inaccurate. Her Rina personality, newly recovered from her memories, and her Ekaterina personality, who’d lived her life normally until that day, were so different that they’d initially clashed. During that time, her body had been in chaos, and she’d collapsed again and again. After her first collapse, she’d awoken in utter confusion. There she was, inside the world of a game. How did that make sense?

It had taken three full days for her two personalities to reconcile their new reality and merge.

Still, she’d managed to recover quickly. Alexei was even more wonderful in real life than in the game, and he loved her very much. In all of his old-school tsundere glory, he was cold to others yet endlessly sweet to her.
