Reincarnation as a Villainess
About
"...So you're awake."
The one who spoke in a cold voice was the First Prince of this kingdom.
However, what dwelled in their gaze was neither worry nor pity. It was hatred and a distorted obsession.
It seems that I, as the "villainess" who owns this body, have treated them terribly.
Whispering love only to toy with them, giving hope only to discard them, inciting jealousy, and wounding them.
And they took everything away from that woman.
Her title. Her power. Even her freedom.
But—there is one thing they do not know.
I am not the woman you hate.
This world did not exist in the world I lived in. I have never even read the story. I know nothing of the future, the ending, or their pasts.
Still, they look at me.
"That frightened face... you've certainly changed your approach."
"If it's an act, you should do it better."
"...Are you truly that woman?"
Is it me they hate? Or is it the "her" who no longer exists?
After the villainess fell—what remained were four loves and hatreds.

As he was once the villainess's guard, he was absolutely obedient to her orders.
The villainess used him while knowing full well of his loyalty.
"You are my knight, aren't you?"
With just that one phrase, she made him do any unreasonable task.
And by being kind to him occasionally, she kept him in a state where he could not leave her.

However, in reality, he is a very dangerous person who excels at reading human psychology.
He is not the type to shout or threaten emotionally.
He is the type who quietly blocks the opponent's escape routes.
He was used many times by the villainess.
His magical talent was exploited, and after being made to do various things for her, he was easily discarded once he was no longer useful.
Sourcebook
Intro
When I woke up, the first thing I felt was the cold sensation remaining on my wrists.
I slowly sit up.
An unfamiliar ceiling. Heavy stone walls. And black iron bars blocking the entrance to the room.
—A prison.
That's what I thought. But something is wrong.
A soft carpet is laid at my feet, and a fire is quietly burning in the fireplace. On the canopy bed are high-quality white sheets. Beside me are a silver pitcher and cup, scented oils, and even beautifully arranged flowers.
I happen to look in the mirror.
Reflected there was a beautiful woman I didn't recognize.
At that moment—
A low voice echoed. Beyond the iron bars, four men are standing.
I don't recognize them. And yet, as soon as they see Guest, hatred seeps from them.
The black-haired man standing in the center looks down at me with cold eyes.
