I lived a pretty pathetic life. My fiancé not only used me, but also cheated on me. And my family, instead of protecting me, their daughter, acted as if I was at fault and announced that I wasn’t their real child. To top all of that off, I was almost killed for political reasons. So, I decided to end my pain. But somehow, I miraculously went back in time.
With my second chance, I decided to take my revenge. Take revenge on my enemies and refine myself, cleaning up my past mistakes one by one… And break up with my fiancé who’ll just end up bothering me in the future.
“I’m sorry. I didn’t know you suffered this much…”
However, the man who’d told me that he cheated on me because he thought that I was unattractive was now apologizing.
“I’ve changed my mind. I’m interested in you.”
“…”
“I never thought that I would find my first love at this age. If you feel sorry for me, why don’t you pay me back.”
In addition, the Duke that I temporarily allied with to be able to break up with my ex-fiancé started becoming obsessed with me. I was just trying to accomplish my revenge so why is everything so different from the past.

I gave this 5 but it's more a 4 high 3. It got the 5 because the way it's written is both a plus and a minus, and depending on whether you like it or not.
First lets clear the setting. It's not a standard second chance novel. No spoiler, it's either a character in a game. Character in a web novel being written, character in an AI simulation, or other similar thing, not sure which yet but it's something of the kind. The way it's played has some fun elements and a certain degree of novelty.
While she may be nothing but a character the MC is very real and very tortured. So far the antagonists are equally real and fleshed out. This makes the path of her revenge exceptionally enjoyable and truly a guilty pleasure to watch.
The writing, I have a very hard time describing the writing style. I love the phrasing and flow. Individual and short sequences of paragraphs are just beautiful. The problem is that the author will leave out vital parts of a description, shift to a different topic, then reveal the details half a chapter later. It definitely raises the difficulty of reading the novel. There are also time/perspective shifts that you don't realize until well into them and have to start re reading. So far I am only 10 chapters in and it's different and interesting but I can see it being really annoying by the end.
Bottom Line: It's pretty good, but I would wait for more reviews and more of the novel to be translated. It looks like a chapter a week or so will be very frustrating.

Off to a good start so far, she isn't spending a huge amount of time wasting and lamenting her past nor questioning how she returned. She is focused on revenge and being able to make those who harmed her in the past suffer, I really like her attitude!

This is soo good. FL is kinda evil but no surprise after what she's been through. It's a cliche revenge plot but it's not boring at all. FL does revenge herself and she's satified when they can't breathe and are buried lol. Basically slowly going after everyone and boy is it entertaining!

It's starts off slow but it's starting to get interesting like around ch 10 or so.
I like the MC so far, her mind is totally set on revenge so she making some pretty cool plans on how to achieve her plans to function, so she's pretty smart and ambitious.

Whew, boy. This was different.
There are quite a few twists in this story. Some people, like me, will absolutely love it. Others will not, wanting a more... predictable plot? How to put this without giving spoilers?
You could consider the genre of this story romance, after a certain point, maybe? The love interest definitely does fall in love first, and he is a handsome male lead, but... let's just say the roles and events, and the understanding of said things the reader comes to comprehend aren't reliable. Yeah. That makes sense.
If you get really into typical romance stories, you may want to read the spoiler before reading, because something happens later in the story that may make you angry, but if you like twists, mysteries, or are more hung up about the revenge part of the story, definitely ignore it. Things will be so much more satisfying going in blind.
Again, this spoiler (revealed around the 100th chapter, btw) is only for those who are looking for a healing, semi-normal romance, and don't like their emotions being played with.
Spoiler
This is a big spoiler, so consider it carefully before you read. There's more twists that make it worth reading, but this one's the big kahuna, and reading it will semi-ruin the first 100 or so chapters (only semi, though, as her biggest acts of vengeance were in there, too). Only read if I've already half convinced you this novel isn't for you.
We got Hans'd.
Yeah, from Frozen, Mr 'if only somebody loved you' Hans. For 100 chapters. It turns out, the guy who we are given all signs to believe is the typical, cold Duke of the North ML stereotype, is actually the villain. Yeah... after watching him court the MC who no longer believes in love for 100 chapters, rooting for them for her sake, since she desperately needs a hobby aside from revenge, he betrays everyone. Never loved her, actually hurt her behind the scenes a few times, and only wanted something from her. He's one of the unapologetic bad guys, but so much worse than her ex-fiance.
To be fair, we're warned early on that he's an actual, literal sociopath, but the 'untouched by emotions until I met you' trope made us not take it seriously, but he seriously has no empathy for others, and he's not a yandere who loves her in a sick, twisted way, either. 100 chapters, he courted her. That was two years in the novel, in order to use her, then kill her, then forget her. Once everything was revealed, he hit and stabbed her, while verbally abusing her. It was... uncomfortable to read.
Don't worry, though, there seems to be the true ML, who we thought was the 2nd male lead, Carl (who is both handsome and in love first, yay for tags not lying... eventually) to try to pick up the pieces.
Anyway, I love this novel so far. It's been unconventional, but that's fun, as well. Past the 110 chapter marker or so, it starts to become a little more typical, but there's still a couple twists coming. Truly everyone, even the scum of the earth, has their own point of view. This novel does a good job of showing that.

It's really plot twist. Writing style is back and forth between past and present. It's well translated. When you read 100+ chapter you will shock, who the real enemy is.
Spoiler
i thought her fiancé is trustworthy person, but actually he is the final boss and also I thought he is the ML, but actually the ML is someone that I didn't expect it because his presence like side character. FL really doesn't have someone she can trust and rely on. Only that friend-sub ordinate she can trust (red haired)
Og FL is actually kind in 2nd tl. Because MC changes herself and the situation is different from 1st tl. In the 1st tl MC was really pathetic, fool and didn't do anything, only begged for love. So the MC's character building is good

After the plot twist, I was so shocked that I couldn’t continue reading. It came out of nowhere and was good for shock value, but it also made me not have the stomach to continue reading. I wasn’t really huge on the 2nd ML either. I just dropped it as I felt I couldn’t be satisfied with the ending after that point. But it was great up until that point though
(4.5/10)
