The Fallen Author's Heart in the Land of Love

Akira Tsukihara, a romance author who detested love, poured idealistic romance into her best-selling novels while secretly scorning the genre and its fans. Believing love to be a deceptive illusion obscuring power, betrayal, and ambition, her frustration led her to curse love itself. She then awakened, inexplicably reborn as Aira, a nameless peasant girl within the Kingdom of Seraphis, a world she had created. Contrary to her romantic narratives, Aira is not a privileged noble or a powerful heroine. Instead, she is a struggling commoner facing harsh medieval realities, including starvation and relentless labor. Refusing to accept her fate, Akira-as-Aira resolves to rewrite her story. She aims to achieve historical significance not as a romantic lead, but as a manipulator who will dominate the world. In this land of nobility and political intrigue, where the romance tropes she despised unfold, Aira’s primary objective becomes the eradication of the very ideals of love that ensnared her, even if it means embracing the role of her own story's villain.
