"You are dating my younger sister," said the silver-haired, handsome man in a chilly voice.
With his dazzling silver hair that shone like diamonds and golden eyes that gleamed like firearms, he was a man who couldn't be ignored by anyone.
But it wasn't just his good looks that stood out.
He was the eldest son of Duke Sertaiya, also known as the Empire's Sword.
'He's also my brother.'
Although our relationship was complicated with secrets about my birth and various complications,
At the moment, the attention of the world didn't matter.
Sip.
I took a sip of my tea, trying not to show any signs of tension.
It was a peaceful afternoon like any other.
In the cosy cafe where sweet treats and pleasant conversations flowed, there was a chill in the air at our table.
My brother emitted a cold aura like a northern wind as he glared at the man sitting across from him.
"Get to the point. Break up with my sister."
He spoke with an authoritative tone, trying to intimidate the other person, but the man who heard his words just smirked.
"Well, that's difficult."
The man's captivating eyes drew an enchanting curve.
It was a seductive smile, as if a demon had donned an angel's disguise.
The beautiful man gestured towards me.
And...
"......"
"I've fallen deeply in love with Lady."
He gently placed his lips on the back of my hand as I held a teacup.
It sent a shiver down my spine. Unconsciously, I pulled my hand away.
The uncomfortable tension caused my brother's facial expression to twist.
"It seems my sister doesn't like you."
There was a menacing aura about him, as if he could tear the man's throat at any moment.
'What in the world is happening here?'
In the unusual atmosphere, I could only gauge my brother's reaction.
He was overly protective of me.
To the point where he would summon that man upon hearing that I had a lover.
'But he's just a fake lover...'
My brother ranted and raved, not understanding the true extent of my circumstances, which ultimately led to this uncomfortable three-way confrontation.
The man casually brushed it off.
"Well, Lady is a very shy person. She's bold when we're alone."
What's that supposed to mean?
Something that would be misunderstood if others heard it!
My face flushed with anger.
"Brother, I would never...
I tried to explain hastily, but my brother's eyes were already filled with anger.
"!"
Bang!
My brother slammed the table. It seemed like he could strangle the man's neck at any moment.
And to make matters worse, he reached for his waist. The sound of a sharp blade brushing against its sheath resonated.
'Is he really going to use force here?'
My brother, who was the heir to a prestigious swordsmanship family, stepping into this would cause a tremendous commotion.
I had to stop the bloodshed at all costs.
I desperately gestured with my eyes.
'Inventory!'
A translucent virtual inventory appeared before my eyes.
I quickly scanned through the list of items, searching for a solution to resolve this situation in one fell swoop.
[Genre Change for 1 Minute (Melodramatic Drama)]
[In just 60 seconds, change the current situation to a 'melodramatic drama' genre!]
[Use item]
Yes, it would be better if it turned into a melodramatic drama rather than a bloody incident.
'Use the item!'
It was the perfect moment.
Ding!
With a cheerful notification sound, the entire scene turned completely white.
After blinking, when I opened my eyes again, the familiar surroundings came into view.
People having conversations while sipping tea, the sweet aroma of pastries, and intermittent laughter
The cafe scene didn't seem to have changed much from before.
However, there was one noticeable difference.
"Here you go."
My brother, who had been emitting a cold aura, now had an intense and determined gaze.
It wasn't just the atmosphere that had changed.
My goodness.
One billion?
Not ten million gold, not fifty million gold, but one billion?
'How much is that exactly?'
That's enough to buy several mansions in the capital.
And he's spending that amount just to break up with me?
Unintentionally, my mouth gaped open.
'Calm down, calm down.'
It was a larger sum of money than I had anticipated, but I was just surprised because I'm such a commoner.
The other person is the antagonist in the original story.
A person who deals with illegal and unethical deeds, crossing the boundaries between legality and illegality.
Selling my dignity for just an envelope of money
"Lord, your generosity knows no bounds. I understand your words."
'Huh?'
Selling my dignity—does that even exist?
The antagonist had a satisfied expression as he slipped the envelope into his pocket.
'Can you please take a look at this human?'
Of course, it was too large a sum to refuse.
Even so, just accepting it like that
Unlike me, who ran away from home, my brother cleared away the obstacles and had a content look on his face.
"That's good. Now break up with my sister."
"No, I will use the funds you've given as a marriage gift."
The antagonist smiled brightly.
"Sir, you seem to have a lot of pride. I understand your words."
"What did you say?"
Unexpectedly, my brother's expression twisted. The man faced my brother with a relaxed expression.
Flames flickered in the eyes of both men, with me in between.
No matter what, I tried to resolve this situation and even used an item.
But somehow, it didn't resolve anything and only made it more complicated.
'Where did it go wrong?'
Originally, I was supposed to play the role of the despised, useless noblewoman.
'It was supposed to be that way...'
Somehow, my brother became overly possessive of me, and the antagonist seemed to dream of a bright future with me.
In this tangled situation, I tightly closed my eyes.
***
I, Rozelia Serteya,
Well, to be precise, I should say the body I possessed
'I' was living in the modern world and suddenly found myself in the body of a villainess from a romance fantasy game, thanks to a transmigration.
In a world where all sorts of things happen, it's hard to grasp the concept of transmigration in times like these.
'But it's even worse that I'm stuck in an infinite loop of reincarnating as a villainess.'
This is already the seventh life, I believe.
Excluding the life before transmigration, this pitiful system window is the sixth I've encountered. I glared at the system window in front of me.
【SYSTEM: Congratulations! You have achieved the challenge 'Rebirth Seven, Life Cycle 7'.】
【System: The administrator's favour is concentrated on the villainess, Rozelia.】
[TIP! Utilise 'luck' for a happy ending!]
With the administrator's favour, luck, and a happy ending, let's start a new life.
Without fail, the system window appeared once again, urging me.
I closely examined the system window.
'Since I am fortunate enough to receive the administrator's favour in this life, should I use this ability to achieve a happy ending?'
It's a sweet suggestion, as if I could become the protagonist of this world. However, I already know.
'This damn system window always makes it sound so plausible.'
That this special favour is nothing more than a scam of transmigration.
