Disclaimer: Before you start reading this series, you should know that I am just a beginner when it comes to Japanese and have no prior experience in translating these types of novels, so the translations might not be as accurate as you might like, but I assure you that I use multiple sources as my references when translating this and do multiple checks before I upload chapters. If you’re comfortable with this, then happy reading!!

That day, I suddenly remembered the memories of my past life.
“Anastasia-sama!”
I jumped out of my bed. My personal maid became confused as she drew nearer, step by step. Anastasia. That name, I was certain that I’ve heard of it somewhere before. That was unmistakably my name, that’s for sure, and yet, I didn’t want to believe that it was mine.
The memories from my previous life along with the memories from my current life simultaneously poured into my mind, and finally, I understood.
――This was the world of an otome game that my little sister was addicted to, called ’Candy, The Saint, and The Mystic Rose.’ Then, this meant that I must have transmigrated into the villainous daughter, Anastasia Strauss.

I was lying down on the bed, blankly staring at the ceiling while thinking. A few hours had passed, and I finally regained my composure, getting my memory straight.
Firstly, the state of this world was after the otome game had ended. In other words, the ‘Saint Selection Rite’ had already concluded. The normal conclusion for the villainous daughter ended with Anastasia’s death or her deportation. But now, I was languidly laying on this soft hand woven bed and was wearing a top-grade one-piece dress. By no means did it look like I was going to be deported any time soon. Yes, Anastasia, the villainous daughter, has not been thrown into ruin.
(It seemed that the heroine, Candy-sama, has been imprisoned for seducing the crown prince.)
And the thing that surprised me the most was that the heroine Candy-sama… had a bad ending in this otome game. In this version of the otome game, the heroine met a bad ending going through the crown prince’s route, while Anastasia, the villainous daughter, married the crown prince and became a princess… Heroine, what a mess! Being the crown princess was nothing but trouble.
(And then, I was poisoned and hovered between life and death for two weeks, wasn’t that right?)
But, the most important thing was that I got my memory back. Being the crown princess, Anastasia was surrounded by envy. Perhaps, it was because of this that Anastasia was poisoned and wondered between life and death for two whole weeks. Moreover, her husband, the crown prince, had not even come to visit her once. And as you could probably guess with what I’ve said so far, their marriage wasn’t on good terms.
“…The unlovable crown princess. Hah~ I’m fed up with this.”
I muttered this to myself as I continued to stare at the ceiling. Ahh, since my memory suddenly came back, I was having a headache, so I’ll just go to sleep. I thought as I slowly closed my eyes and drifted off.

T/N: Wow, okay that was really different from translating a Chinese novel! But, it’s a great learning experience. I hope that everyone continues this journey with me. Cheers!
