Prologue

0. Prologue

Where did it all go wrong?

Was it when I possessed someone in a novel?

Or was it when I possessed the villainess in a novel?

I don’t know.

Anyway, what matters is that I’m trapped on a magic-cursed Remote Island with the male leads from the novel.

Right, life is inherently made up of shitty timing.

* * *

When I first opened my eyes, what I saw was a quiet, clear sky.

Next, I heard the sound of waves by my ears.

When I came to my senses and sat up, humid air struck my face without warning. Suppressing my rising discomfort, I carefully surveyed my surroundings.

I could see waves receding beneath my feet.

The place where I had been lying was a deserted Sandy Beach.

“Where the hell is this…?”

Palm trees densely surrounded the Sandy Beach by the shore. It was an unfamiliar sight. At least it didn’t look like Korea.

Gradually, an ominous feeling crept over me.

I rubbed my temples firmly and turned my head to the other side.

“What’s this now?”

Next to me lay an unidentifiable man who had collapsed.

The man sprawled on the wet Sandy Beach was dressed in a splendid Uniform. And he had beautiful black hair that resembled the night sky.

If nothing else, it was clear that the man’s attire didn’t suit the beach.

The moment I turned the man’s shoulder to lay him on his back and checked his face,

Beeeeeep-

A steady frequency of tinnitus rang in my head.

“Ugh.”

I clutched my head with my hands and lowered it at the dizzying sensation.

The entire life of a woman named ‘Margaret Rose Flone’ came rushing into my mind.

Memories began to mix together as if I were the original Margaret.

After quite some time passed and the tinnitus subsided, I realized.

Crown Prince Enoch, Langrid Empire, Flone Ducal House. Those names in Margaret’s memories weren’t unfamiliar.

I was now inside a novel.

Fuck.

The beginning of the incident was like this.

While walking and reading someone’s draft novel I had picked up on the street, I was hit on the head by a falling sign and died.

And I possessed a novel with ‘high-rated’, ‘dark’, ‘romance fantasy’ keywords that I had been reading until just before I died.

The novel begins when the female protagonist, a great saint, and five male leads of high status – the empire’s crown prince, Magic Tower lord, archbishop, etc. – suddenly wake up on a Deserted Island.

The author vividly described the process of them surviving for a year on the magic-cursed Deserted Island like a survival story.

And the novel’s title was 【Something More Important Than Survival】, so what could be more important than survival in a high-rated novel?

I’ll limit my explanation to this much.

Moreover, they weren’t alone on the island. There was also a foreign substance-like villainess, the villainess Margaret. That was me.

What’s noteworthy here is that Margaret, whom I possessed, gets killed by the male leads around the middle of this novel.

Because she was jealous of the great saint Yuanna Lucy, who monopolized the male leads’ love.

Margaret persistently tormented Yuanna and eventually even attempted to murder her by pushing her off a cliff.

The male leads, who had been going insane while trapped on the island, lost their reason upon learning this fact. Then they killed Margaret, who posed a threat to Yuanna.

That’s why the second keyword of this novel is ‘dark story’.

Of course, what’s important isn’t that, but the fact that I opened my eyes on that crazy island.

Right now, at the starting point of the novel.

* * *

“What kind of fucking situation is this…”

I looked again at the man collapsed next to me. Now I knew this man’s identity.

‘Enoch Aster Klaus Langrid.’

He was Enoch, the crown prince of the Langrid Empire.

And he was also the main male lead of the novel 【Something More Important Than Survival】.

All the male leads appearing in the novel disliked Margaret, but among them, the person who despised her most was this Crown Prince Enoch.

Damn it, why with this man of all people…

“Ugh.”

Then a faint groan flowed from Enoch’s mouth.

When he showed signs of waking up, my heart became urgent.

If this place was really inside the novel and I had possessed Margaret, I needed to hide from the male leads. Because they would kill me soon.

I needed a safe place to hide until the ‘door’ to escape outside the island opened after one year.

I quickly examined my outfit.

I was so grateful that I was wearing an Indoor Dress rather than pajamas.

Of course, given Margaret’s usual taste, even the Indoor Dress was quite fancy, but it was fortunate that it wasn’t more frilly formal wear. The shoes I was wearing were also Flat Shoes.

After checking the dress once, I eyed the dense forest about twenty steps ahead.

Recklessly entering the forest was of course very dangerous.

But wouldn’t it be better than staying next to the male leads who despise me, trembling in fear of being murdered at any moment?

‘Right. Let’s run away.’

Having quickly made up my mind, I lifted my foot.

Or rather, I tried to.

If only a large hand hadn’t grabbed my ankle, I could have moved forward. I fell face-first into the sand as soon as I lifted my foot.

“Marga…ret?”

Enoch grabbed my ankle and raised his head with a deeply furrowed brow.

Fuck, my plan was ruined from the very beginning.

Right, didn’t I say? Life is inherently made up of shitty timing.
