Description
The butler, Raymond, who used the witch for his family. The friend, Pel, who betrayed the witch for freedom. The fiancé, Glenn, who deceived the witch for his lover. None of them regretted it. Thus, the witch, Leticia… “Regression, you say. And at such a time.” When she returned to a time where she could not avoid death and faced her enemies, she made a firm decision. If Leticia had to die anyway, she would make them regret killing her. Even if she had to act to do so. “Then you must live, Master. Live, split my heart in your hand, and laugh at me.” But why? “It seems you still don’t know, Leti. Without you, there is no me.” Why do you look at me like that? “Do as you wish, young lady. Be it life or death. I will follow.” Leticia looked at those who would give everything to save just her. Those who crumbled at her feet, regretting, even though she hadn’t died yet. There was affection there that no one had ever given her. Of all places, there.

My Thoughts on Acting for the Villains’ Regret
First Impressions
"Acting for the Villains’ Regret" immediately pulled me in with its premise: a wronged witch gets a second chance to enact revenge on the men who caused her downfall. The "villainess noble girls" tag hinted at a potentially delicious power dynamic, and the "reverse harem" tag added a layer of intrigue. I was prepared for a rollercoaster of emotions, and the early chapters certainly delivered on that promise.
What Works Well
The initial setup is strong. The protagonist's apathetic demeanor, born from her past trauma, is compelling. The European ambience is well-crafted, adding to the overall atmosphere of tragic romance and impending doom. I found myself eagerly anticipating her meticulously planned revenge, wanting to see those who wronged her pay the price. The author does a good job of making you feel invested in her pain and her desire for retribution. The slow burn of the revenge plot is initially quite satisfying.
Areas of Concern
However, as the story progressed, I began to have some reservations. While the initial chapters hooked me with the promise of vengeance, the execution left me feeling a bit conflicted. The protagonist's ultimate decision to forgive those who caused her so much suffering felt somewhat unearned. I can understand the desire for character growth, but the shift felt abrupt and, frankly, a little disappointing considering the initial driving force of the narrative. It felt like the story backed away from its initial commitment to revenge, which left a slightly bitter taste.

Final Verdict
"Acting for the Villains’ Regret" is a novel with a compelling premise and a well-developed world. The initial chapters are gripping, and the protagonist's journey is undeniably emotional. However, the ending may divide readers, as the protagonist's ultimate decision to forgive her tormentors feels somewhat at odds with the initial narrative. If you're looking for a straightforward revenge story, this might not be it. But if you're open to a more nuanced exploration of forgiveness and second chances, "Acting for the Villains’ Regret" might be worth a read, just be prepared for a potentially bittersweet ending. I'd give it a solid 3 out of 5 stars.
