Description

My execution had been decreed, and thus, I met my demise. “To kill you as a villain would be a bit of a waste.”“How about it? I want to give you a chance.” No, I thought I was dead.But was it because of what the enemy-like guy said just before I died? ‘Gerun, that son of a b*tch…!’ When I opened my eyes, it was ten years ago. And in a different world! * Since I’ve already come back to life, there’s nothing I can do about it. To avoid repeating the foolish past, “Give me everything from here to there.”“…You’re going to buy all of this?” I used that enemy-like guy as my wallet, “Well, I heard from my friends that my dear granddaughter likes shopping so much, and that you act cute, too.”“It’s just because I need a wallet.“……” “Father, I’m going to attend a party. Can you escort me?”“…Of course. But are you alright with me?”“Yes. As long as you dress up nicely.”Even the once-broken family relationship was splendidly restored. “…If I say yes, I like you, would that make things difficult for you, Roxelyn?”“Then, how about we date for just six months?”“…Pardon?”The business of love, which I had once already given up on, had also started perfectly. It was the perfect future I had hoped for… “Rox, you also have an Abyss.” Even to someone like me who thought I was incompetent, power awakened within me.As such… The Baddest Villainess Is Back!

My Thoughts on The Baddest Villainess Is Back

"The Baddest Villainess Is Back" certainly grabbed my attention with its intriguing title and promise of a strong female lead in a fantasy setting. While I found aspects to enjoy, the novel also presented some challenges that kept me from fully embracing it.

First Impressions

Initially, I was drawn in by the premise of Roxelyn, a character reborn into a new world with a past life influencing her actions. The early chapters held promise, and I was eager to see how she would navigate her new reality. The concept of a "baddest villainess" archetype is always fun, and I anticipated a compelling story of cunning and strength.

What Works Well

The character dynamics, particularly the evolving relationship between Roxelyn and the third prince, Arma, kept me invested. I appreciated the slow burn and the hints of hidden depths within Arma's seemingly gentle nature. The political intrigue surrounding the empire also added a layer of complexity that I found engaging. I also enjoyed the unique addition of modern physics concepts, like parallel worlds, woven into the fantasy setting. This created a fresh and interesting angle that set it apart from other regression novels I've read.

Areas of Concern

However, I did find the world-building to be somewhat lacking in clarity. Certain aspects of the world, like the "Abyss" and its powers, felt vaguely defined, leaving me with unanswered questions. I felt that the pacing could be uneven at times, with abrupt transitions and a tendency to jump between scenes without sufficient context. This made it challenging to fully immerse myself in the story. Additionally, while Roxelyn is presented as a strong female lead, I struggled to connect with her initially due to her abrasive personality. While she does undergo some development, I felt it wasn't always consistent.

Final Verdict

Overall, "The Baddest Villainess Is Back" offers a blend of intriguing concepts and enjoyable character dynamics. While the uneven pacing and somewhat underdeveloped world-building detracted from my overall experience, the evolving relationships and the unique incorporation of modern physics elements kept me engaged. I would recommend this novel to readers who enjoy fantasy romance with a strong female lead, but with the caveat that it may require some patience to fully appreciate.
