Probably the only villainess I know that stays a villain with their thinking because she only thought of her survival til the end still holding such motives from each person she uses, although she did become kind because of the people around her.
Maybe because of that, I didn't like it but I commend her consistency.
When I first read this, I fell in love with how pretty Aria is. Like legit haha, she's so gorgeous I had her screenshot. She's badass and smart, but then somehow I got bored with the pacing after I.F died but I didn't realize they started with the side stories with that. I thought it dragged a bit at the end, but overall... it was good.

Finally, a true villainess who makes decisions purely for her own survival and builds a Saintess reputation while in reality is only nice so she can use those people and doesn't actually care about them. This is what the Soulless Duchess should have been. (Currently finished the main story and am awaiting the side stories)
The pace of the plot was really good in the beginning and it was fun to watch the FL manipulate those who had led to her demise and spin her web to entrap those she seeks revenge against. It does get quite slow for a bit when the plot takes a back seat to the romance, but picks up again later.
It's also nice that the author didn't try to pass her off as suddenly super smart, but rather as someone who's success comes from learning from her last mistakes and using her knowledge of the future to her advantage. Often, when the author tries to pass the FL as amazingly talented and super smart, the trope falls short because they are limited by the author's own ingenuity and intelligence. This didn't feel like an issue with this manhwa

100% recommend if you are in to the shoujo stuff. And even if you aren’t, give it a try, might become your new favorite genre.
Fyi - ch. 57/58 (if you can find it) is absolute dog. Pretty pictures with minecraft enchantment table litterateur.

I like the ideas, and the art is nice.
A few plot twists, some interesting, some that you understand way before they happens.
I am currently at chap 35, and a few things are illogical or "because plot reasons", and it's disappointing since it breaks the FL's character.
I have a small list :

Having the sister of the fiance being the real villain was quite nice.

I have a small list :
Spoiler (mouse over to view)
- She is smart and intelligent, except when it's about the identity of the ML, about that, she can't even do 1+1.
- Her maids tell her that it's the fiance's sister that is behind everything (letters, gifts, etc.), and she is completely surprised a few chapters later when she heards about it again.
- The time turner. OMG, it's so infuriating !
She understands that it makes her sleeps a lot -> proceed to use it every day and doesn't care about her image. Well the author stopped caring about that too at that point, so it can be glossed over, ok.
But ! "Oh, I shouldn't rely on it too much, only when really needed" and "I shouldn't use it too much since it causes me to grow too quickly" are completely ignored in the same chapter.
*facepalm*

I forgot if I read this back in 2019 when it was first released on kakao and was scanlated by a group but ever since that time, I had been eagerly waiting for every chapter and is fully supporting the english release from day1. This series is my comfort series that I can read again and again even if it's still ongoing.
I tried to read the novel but stopped at where the current arc is by now
This is definitely a recommended series to read and even binge read into. It's probably what set the tone for a really good Villainess protagonist (maybe idk I'm just biased on this pls don't hurt me 😂) I'll forever reread this every after a few months.

When Mielle pushed her own father and blames Aria
since I felt like it's more thrilling to see it than imagining it. Ant Studio being the ones behind the artwork is an absolute gold mine. They really put so much in this and I adore the style they kept in. This is definitely a recommended series to read and even binge read into.

Does anyone know the author/artist’s Twitter/ Insta? I wanna follow them ><
After reading a whole lot of ''reset'' manga/manwha and another whole lot of ''villainess'' stuff, this is one of my favorites since our girrl ARIA stays a villain (sort of) and doesnt have a sudden change of heart (so far atleast). SO what happend with the scans? was it dropped?
As a side note, i totally recommend this even to those who are not into this genre.

Actually I've read the novel until the end, but I'll always wait for the manhwa to finish because the art spoils my eyes.

MC returns to the past for REVENGE on her family. The story atm is executed properly and many characters are likeable (and hate). The MC is feels just like a normal person who is standing up for herself and you makes you route for her and destroy her enemies slowly as a villainess (though not evil).
Also the art is VERY beautiful
