Revenge of Reborn Villainess

Eshika slowly reminisced about her past life.

She was born as Eshika Brigitte, an illegitimate daughter of a successful jeweler who earned a noble title, and grows up like a plant in a greenhouse. 

While her two older brothers learned the family business, Eshika had no interest in such matters. Her goal in life was to marry into a good family, have beautiful children, and live a life filled with love and happiness, like other noble ladies.

During a visit to the capital, Terres, she happened to encounter the handsome and refined Marquis Kallian Klaus. Smitten by his looks and manners, Eshika pleaded with her father to make her his wife.

“His mother, Lady Leona Klaus, does not have a good temperament ,” her father warned, but Eshika remained stubborn, insisting to marry her off. 

In the end, to help the financially struggling Klaus family, Eshika provided a substantial dowry, fulfilling her dream of marrying Kallian and …

“Life became hell.”

Staring at the dark window of her north-facing room, Eshika muttered with a noble tone.

Ignoring the disdain of his mother and the neglect from the family, Kallian never once treated her as a wife.

Eshika’s envisioned perfect life had crumbled, so she had solely written letters to her childhood friend, Yurie, sharing her innermost thoughts and pleading for Yurie’s presence by her side.

Yurie, who was originally a playmate from her childhood, willingly entered the Klaus mansion as a maid upon Eshika’s request.

Since Yuri’s arrival she has noticed that somehow it appeared that Eshika’s reputation had further declined, despite that Eshika has relied solely on her.

“If only I had regained my memories earlier, I wouldn’t have been foolishly deceived.”

As a celestial spirit in her past life, Eshika had encountered countless deceitful humans. If she had retained those instincts, she could have seen through Yurie’s subtle signs.

Eshika sat at her dusty old desk and began writing, she used the writing in the Central Plains so that no one would recognize it. 

“First, regain my strength.”

In her previous life, as the daughter of the Heavenly Demon Sect’s leader, she possessed formidable martial arts.

“I can’t rely on a man’s love to protect myself.”

She looked at her body, “Having never practiced before, her body was weak, but fortunately, the Qi here seemed to be much stronger than in the Martial Forest.”

In ten years at the longest, and five years at the earliest, he should be able to regain half of his former strength. 

“Second, turn this family upside down, drain it, and leave nothing behind.”

Kallian and Duncal House had instilled in her bones and produced too much resentment to be easily divorced and forgotten.

Having read the book, Eshika knew Klaus Marquis’s weaknesses well.

With the appearance of a pitiful Eshika, she could easily manipulate him as she desired.

Results might take time, but the outcome would undoubtedly be satisfying.

“Third…”

As Eshika contemplated her final plan, a sinister smile formed on her lips.

This life had to be different.

Different from the fate she had read in the book about Eshika Klaus.

And at that moment, a knock echoed from outside the door.

“I am coming in.”

It was Sella, one of the maids who had tormented her.
