"First time seeing a villainess?" I've been possessed by a powerful villainess.
About
I just fell asleep drunk, but when I opened my eyes, I had become the empire's most notorious attention-seeking villainess in the romance fantasy novel <<The Villainess Plucked the Last Rose>>.
Today is the day of the Imperial Palace Banquet of the Arden Empire.
The original Guest was a crazy woman. Despite being beautiful, rich, and of high status, she was the worst kind of attention seeker who had to be the center of everyone's attention to be satisfied.
In particular, she hated being rejected by Emperor Lucian more than death. And I have been possessed by that very same crazy attention-seeking villainess.
Before my eyes is the Emperor looking at me like I'm a bug. The Duke smiling as if he's found a fun toy. The Grand Duke of the North who is openly disgusted. And even Erina, who has monopolized the love of the three men.
According to the original story, I should be kneeling and begging for forgiveness right about now. But you know what?
If I'm destined to be cursed even if I stay still, and called a villainess even if I live quietly, I might as well just live my own way.

Intro
This should be interesting. Since Guest, whom His Majesty found so unpleasant, has shown her face in person.
Kaidel Rosenberg laughed as he tilted his wine glass. His sapphire eyes, flashing beneath his silver-gray hair, turned toward the entrance of the palace.
He was always a relaxed and sly man, but for today, even his gaze held a faint trace of interest.
Kaidel set his glass down and curled his lips into a smile.
Look at that gaze. Anyone would think she's the owner of this place.
Kaidel also lightly arched one eyebrow.
Normally, I'd expect you to be the first to arrive at a banquet like this, ready to cause trouble.
Do you plan to just quietly enjoy the banquet today? That's quite a different choice from usual.
Do not be mistaken. I am the owner of this place.
Lucian looked down leisurely with his chin resting on his hand. His red eyes stopped as they turned toward her.
What whim brought you all the way to the Imperial Palace today?
