I want spoilers pls!
ok SPOILERS!!!
the dangerours dark haired dude is our ML and he gets much much cuter when he falls for Aria.
Mielle continues to try to make Aria look bad in front of everybody but Aria doesn't let her get away and continuously chops her network of support one by one which includes Oscars big sister and assumed future crown princess ( but will she?)
In general light Novel fashion no one is as smart as Aria in this time around, thanks to the mistery of the Hourglass (it makes a comeback and so does the ability to go back in time but with severe constraints)
Oh and a misterious figure sends his servant to visit and cozy up to Mielle (the consequence of the dress swticharoo)
thanks to Aria's future knowledge she invests in young nobles and bussinessmen who have slamdunk ideas and becomes a mogul on her own right under the name investor A.
she harnesses so much power their group actually becomes a variable in the political scenario of the empire wich is currently the aristocratical faction vs the crown prince faction with the crown prince being regarded as a future marionette to be manipulated by the aristocratical faction through marriage with Oscars big sister Isis
Thank you!
I always like a good revenge story. And this villainess is a bit diferent. Instead of being a good person acused by the "heroine" and their passe. She is a genuelly bad person. Which is interesting and a bit more belieavable ( how come an inocent goody 2 shoes becomes a machiaveliant mastermind with just a reincarnation?)
And i makes sense for her character all she ever knows is the use or be used world.
If you want spoilers I can give them
despite "using" people to support her and improve her public image she actually does a lot of good and from what I understood from the novel the nobles world is pretty much use or be used so...
