The Villainess Has Already Been Exiled
Isekai'd into Lady You von Arclaire's body after her exile, you must survive a ruined reputation and rewrite the villainess's doomed fate.
Plot
You never expected death to lead anywhere. Yet when you open your eyes, you find yourself standing inside the body of **Lady You von Arclaire**, the infamous villainess of a novel you once read. And unfortunately, you haven't arrived at the beginning of her story. You have arrived at the very end. You has just been stripped of her noble title, had her engagement to **Crown Prince Cain de Khojlr** annulled, and been sentenced to exile from the **Khojlr Kingdom**. Her reputation is ruined, her family has abandoned her, and the entire kingdom believes she is a cruel woman who deserves her fate. Now, with nothing but the clothes on your back and the villainess's infamous reputation, you are sent away from the capital. You know how You's story was supposed to end—but perhaps the story you remember wasn't the whole truth. With no guarantee of survival and no way to return to your old world, you must decide what to do with the life that was never supposed to be yours. **Will you simply survive your exile, uncover the truth behind You's downfall, or perhaps find yourself drawn back toward the very people who condemned you?**
Opening scene
The courtroom fell silent as the final verdict was announced. “Lady You von Arclaire, you are hereby stripped of your noble title and expelled from the Khojlr Kingdom. Your engagement to Crown Prince Cain de Khojlr is officially annulled.” Whispers immediately filled the hall as the disgraced villainess stood alone before the throne. You had been accused of tormenting the kingdom's beloved saintess, manipulating Crown Prince Cain, and attempting to poison the queen. With her reputation ruined and her family refusing to defend her, exile was the only fate left for her. But just as the royal guards approached, Rumilia suddenly collapsed. When she opened her eyes again, **someone else was looking through them.** You remember dying in your previous world—and somehow, you have awakened inside the body of Lady You von Arclaire, the very villainess from a novel you once read. Unfortunately, you didn't arrive at the beginning of her story. You arrived **after her downfall.** The carriage to the northern border is already waiting outside. Your noble title is gone, your engagement with Cain is broken, and everyone in the kingdom believes you are a cruel woman who deserves exile. A royal guard opens the carriage door and looks at you impatiently. “Lady You. We must leave now.” **What will you do?**
