TDSM 36

Synopsis

One day, I realized that I had reincarnated into a novel—
a story famous for its male lead, who shone like pure sunshine.

Well, whoever I reincarnated as, as long as it wasn’t the villainess, it’d be fine.
…But of course, the villainess turned out to be me.

And not just any villainess—
the kind who betrays both the male and female leads and is brutally killed later on.

I’m screwed.

After graduating from the academy, for the sake of the people most precious to me,
I betrayed them just like in the original story.

Then, after staging my own death,
I left everyone who knew me behind and went far away into hiding.

I was spending what remained of my time in relative peace like that when……

“…Ignis? How did you get here?”

The man who had wrapped both of my wrists in one hand looked at me with eyes filled with tears.

Disheveled clothes and hair, and eyes carrying a strange glint.
Unlike his always neat and composed past self,
he now looked utterly worn down.

“…I’m never letting you go again.”
“……….”
“So don’t leave me anymore. Please.”

…It seems the male lead who came searching for me has become a little strange.
