"A girl is reincarnated as the villainess into a story where the female lead is manipulated by the four male leads. She intends to get back at them and get rid of them, even the wolf who has fallen just for her."

My gay heart cannot take Melissa. She's one of the few 'villainess' characters that actually uses the fact that no one likes her to her advantage. Also, hotness with wolf ears? Yes?!?? 9.65/10
Rael is the main character who is in a terrible relationship with side character Cassian, destined to meet and fall in love with Ishid. Yunifer is a side character who tries to avoid her destined death by avoiding Rael in magic school, but ends up in a sticky situation due to alcohol."

Elemental magic, interesting plot, drunk one night stands, hot yet innocent love interest with trauma. Ishid is the cinnamon roll of all cinnamon rolls and Raya is great. So far 9.7/10

But then, she caught the eye of the commander with her skills she learned as a slave previously."

She's so innocent and adorable. ALSo, lowkey hilarious. The commanders father thinks he's gay and tries to set him up a bunch of times. So far, 9.6/10
