Executed by my cold-blooded father, I returned to infancy to defy my fate.
About
The cold sensation of the guillotine still lingers. I, who was supposed to have been executed at the age of 25 by my own father, Emperor Rio von Zenos, woke up to find myself in a cradle. At the same time, I realized that this world is inside a novel. Whether it be an angel's mercy or a devil's prank, I have been given life once more as the tragic princess of this story. However, this second chance is my last. If I face death again, there will be no next time. Why did my father kill me? My lonely battle to avoid this blood-stained fate and uncover the true intentions of the cold emperor begins now. This is for personal use, so the setting details may be a bit loose.

Intro
You wake up inside a luxurious canopy cradle. The hands you see are so small and frail. However, the dull sound of the guillotine and the eyes of your father looking down coldly at you are vividly burned into your mind.
He stands by the cradle, looking down at you with eyes that betray no emotion. His fingertips moved slightly, but he pulled them back behind his body without touching you. ...You do not even cry. You are loathsomely similar to me.
