Angel or Villainess

Angela was my friend. I wanted to give anything to her, who I thought more precious than my own family. And I eventually turned Angela, a lowly aristocrat from the countryside, into the flower of the capital society. But it was betrayal that came back. She sold me and my family to become an imperial princess.

"…Did you have to go this far?"
"Because I wanted you to be unhappy. I wanted to take your whole life away."

But when I thought I had died under the guillotine, I was surprisingly back in the past.

"Oh, hello. My name is Angela Vito…"
"You're Angela! Nice to meet you. Everyone was waiting for you."

With a bright smile, I held her hands together again.

My best friend betrayed me! Born from a low-ranking noble family, Angela grew to be renowned for her beauty and grace, becoming the prized angel of society, all with my enthusiastic support. Yet beneath that glitz and polish, she was simply... evil. She used me and had me killed out of sheer spite in her quest to become the empire’s greatest woman. But unlucky for her, a magical gift from a dragon has given me a second chance at life. No longer blinded by her light, I’ll do all I can to stop her!
