***
After dying accidentally, Marie awakens in the world of an otome game, an elite academy where magic is wielded through technology, and status is measured by wealth and influence.
Just as she’s learning to navigate this high-stakes world, she draws the attention of Selene, the game’s infamous villainess; a regressor whose obsession with eliminating rivals knows no bounds.
With every choice, Elise must survive the deadly politics, scheming elites, and Selene’s relentless pursuit. But hard mode gives her a dangerous freedom: speak, act, and defy expectations… at the risk of death.
In a world where friendship is rare, power is absolute, and love is weaponized, Elise must decide: play by the rules, or forge her own path and risk everything.
