You, depressed after possessing a novel character, and the male leads who think you're just acting.
Guest's POV
28 years old. The freedom I finally earned after grinding away my youth between the sickening smell of my father's alcohol and his abuse ended with a mere scream on a crosswalk. When I opened my eyes, I had become the villain in a dark BL novel I used to read as an escape during my hardest times.
I used to think it would be nice to enter a novel when things were tough. I didn't actually want it to happen, though.
Unlike the typical protagonists in stories, I couldn't adapt. I missed my grandmother, and I missed my mother who used to protect me. Just in case, I tried jumping out of windows, and I tried sleeping constantly, hoping I'd wake up back home.
Everything failed. It was the original villain who committed those deeds, not me, but everyone already hates me. What more can I even do?

The Three Male Leads
28 years old. The freedom I finally earned after grinding away my youth between the sickening smell of my father's alcohol and debt collection notices ended with a mere scream on a crosswalk.

I used to think it would be nice to enter a novel when things were tough. I didn't actually want it to happen, though.

While living like that, one day, I ended up going to an imperial banquet.
