I have traveled through time, or... through a book. Before I could even congratulate myself for having the omniscient perspective of a god, I tragically discovered that I had become the villainous female side character in this story. To make it worse, the time period of my arrival is precisely when the female side character's misdeeds have reached their peak and her luck has begun to turn sour, marking the turning point where the original female lead rebounds from her lowest point. Faced with such desperation, it seems I can only devote myself to studying the survival guide for the villainous female side character and seize any opportunity to escape. Unfortunately, I'm also burdened with a bunch of incompetent "pig teammates" - a corrupt and power-hungry father obsessed with political intrigue, a lazy and irresponsible playboy brother who can't seem to do anything right, and the original female side character's antics from the earlier chapters of the novel. At this moment, I am undoubtedly trapped in a dilemma, and even if the author agreed to let me run away, the female lead probably wouldn't. And as for the standard configurations of a romance novel - the domineering and scheming male lead, the gentle and romantic second male lead, and even the third and fourth male leads... they are all under the spell of the Mary Sue-like female lead. As a cannon fodder female side character without a golden finger, in order to survive, I must constantly remind myself not to covet beauty and indulge in foolish fantasies. I must keep in mind the eight-character truth - "There are many handsome men, but none are mine." However, the butterfly effect is never just a scare tactic. The male lead's attitude is gradually becoming ambiguous and unpredictable, and the second male lead, who should have been infatuated with the female lead, has inexplicably begun to target and test me. I don't know if these two men want my affection or my life. The duplicitous male lead, the smiling assassin of the second male lead, and the new, unsuspecting puppy-like third male lead, all of them are harder to figure out than the next. So who should I choose? The collision of values from different worlds ultimately leads to an uncontrollable chain reaction. With the bronze equipment of the villainous female side character in a tormented novel, can I, a diligent and enterprising young woman of the new era, turn the tide against the wind?
It was supposed to be routine but everything went south. I die a sudden death. Only 3 minutes were enough. Lying in a pool of blood. Life flashing before my eyes. Consciousness fading. All the sudden a Loading screen interrupting the darkness of death. I wake up

I live a dual life. Heads—I’m the lead researcher in multiverse travel Quinlan Fairview and grant partner of Uri Gunay; legendary theoretical physicist, video game enthusiast, and one hell of a cook. We’d known one another since we were eight, studying and striving toward the same ambition. In vowing to unlock a way to sustain the needed flow of Dark Matter over time to travel between worlds, it would prove several theories both our families researched for decades. Tails—Science is meaningless. A kingdom within the folds of time belonging to Merlin the Patron God of Alchemy, written by my pen and mind, was sustained by pure Dark Matter, otherwise known as Mana. My people were terrified as their world crumbled on the edges, wearing away as my Mana stores lessened. No Cathar can walk between worlds without their conduit for long. All alchemy came at a cost, and the caster didn’t always pay it. Even being in his presence was enough to keep my world from unraveling. Anything was better than asking him to pay the price for my sins. Reality is finite … and I learned that lesson the hard way.
