Young Lady Albert Is Courting Disaster

Mary Albert is the picture of aristocratic grace, a duke’s daughter adorned with pristine silver ringlets and flawless etiquette. Yet beneath her refined exterior lies a startling ambition: she actively desires her own ruin. The revelation strikes during her school entrance ceremony when Mary recognizes her surroundings as an otome game from her previous life. More importantly, she realizes she has been reborn as its designated villainess—a character fated to torment the heroine, face exile from high society, and ultimately meet a catastrophic end. While most would desperately seek to rewrite such a grim destiny, Mary embraces it with absolute delight. Determined to fulfill her wicked role, she eagerly charts a course toward disaster, dragging her perpetually exasperated attendant, Adi, into her schemes. Though he harbors deep skepticism regarding her claims of a past life, he reluctantly assists her efforts. However, executing villainy proves far more difficult than anticipated. No matter how diligently Mary attempts to bully the gentle heroine, Alicia remains entirely oblivious to the malice, inexplicably viewing her tormentor as a dear friend instead. With her grand plans for doom unraveling at every turn, Mary must now figure out how a dedicated villainess can possibly achieve the spectacular downfall she so desperately craves.
