I reincarnated in a novel inside the body of a villainess named Eris who poisoned herself when her fiance, the prince, married her childhood friend, the maid Helena.

From the moment I realized this, I had only one goal.

Escape from the world in this novel.

Even after being dead, I tried to get out of this world but the 'world' did not allow it.

However, when she rejected the path of "Eris" in the original novel the men who had persecuted and ignored Eris began begging for her interest and affection.

“Who are you?” the priest who revived Helena asked.

“You... Are you really Eris?" even the warrior who pledged eternal loyalty to Helena also asked.

“You have changed.” said the prince who rejected Eris in order to marry Helena.

It was strange.

Everyone wasn't interested in Eris before. I don't want to get affectionate even after time passes.

She has no confidence in loving this world.
