Of Skinwalkers and their Inadequacy
Adelaide Sharpe is a heiress with simple ambitions: grow up, seize power, and rule her inherited territory with unquestioned authority. Conquer a neighboring land or two, boost annual profits by at least 15%- or better yet, achieve both. Arrogant? Some call her that. Many do. Just never to her face. It鈥檚 an unspoken rule- one she didn鈥檛 establish but has no intention of challenging. This is her world, after all. Perfect. Controlled. Exactly as it should be. Until it isn鈥檛. At first, the disruptions are minor: merchants severing ties, peers eyeing her with strange unease. But when her family鈥檚 royal connections are threatened, Adelaide draws the line. Then comes the revelation- all of it traces back to two upstarts whose personalities have shifted overnight. And when Adelaide uncovers the truth? Fine. If these uneducated brats want to play noble and meddle in royal affairs, she鈥檒l show them how the game is truly played. Future knowledge or not, they鈥檒l learn the hard way: There鈥檚 a chasm between them and her.And she鈥檚 more than willing to let them fall into it. She'll push them to their death with a smile even.========What to expect:*Villainess MC and all the perks that come with it. She's also very OP magic wise.*Reincarnated people, but not the MC herself.*Nobles who notice the sudden change in character of the people they know.
