『I’m the Villain, but I Have the Most Money』

1. Synposis

 An ordinary Korean girl, ‘her’, suddenly possesses Astaine Paradie, the villainess from the romance fantasy novel <Clemence’s Mistake>. She was a character who copied everything the female lead Clemence did. Actually, it didn’t matter to her that she had possessed a villain. Astaine Paradie had the richest father in the world, the Duke of Paradie. Once she won the lottery, she decided to spend his money like water however she wanted. In other words, she decided to be a person who was rich and unemployed.

The only problem with her comfortable life was that in the book, the world was about to end. All because the heroine, Clemence, made the mistake of abandoning the cat hybrids. Astaine knows the ending of the original story, in which the prince of the cat hybrids abandoned by Clemence destroys the world out of spite. So, she decides to raise a hybrid of her own. She broke the nose of the Marquis de Salame’s puppet, who harassed her, and bought all the Pelferni hybrids in the market.

Astaine isn’t aware at first, but among the cat hybrids she decided to raise were the Prince of the Hybrids and Fortnen, a dragon. To be exact, he was a dragon cursed by the world tree and polymorphed into a cat, and was currently trying to track down the dwarves, who held the key to breaking his curse. As his power had been neutralized by the curse placed on him by the world tree, the dragon decided to entrust his body to Astaine.

She was raising her cats and was using as much money as she wanted. In this way, Astaine lived 120% satisfied with her life. However, people’s view of Astaine had changed a little as she had bought the cats from the hybrid market and bought costumes from the boutique. In particular, the male leads of the original novel began to be wary of her.  

Why, this wasn’t supposed to happen?

In the meantime, the long-awaited coming-of-age season in the Duchy of Paradie arrived. This coming-of-age ceremony would last for about a year, a time during which the family members of the Duchy of Paradie’s abilities to manage his properties would be judged and reviewed. In other words, it was a time to spend money like water. Legally. In recent years, the duke’s ceremony had been reduced to a show, so few people were actually expelled from the family after being eliminated from the ceremony. Aside from the original novel’s Astaine Paradie.

‘Present’ Astaine’s goal was to survive for a long time. To ensure that she was not kicked out and that her jobless existence was not ruined, she was determined to fail in moderation without making it obvious. Astaine spent her dissolute days with a cat and a dragon pretending to be a cat.

But wait,

She intended to fail, but strangely things were going well?

She took over a jewelry store and invested with the intent to be swindled. However, thanks to magic secretly given by the dragon, her store was a hit, and in the end her investment turned out not to be a fraud but an honest person who ran a nursery. As her series of ‘bad’ good luck continued, the main characters from the original story began to notice her. Astaine’s reputation gradually began to recover, and someone who liked her even appeared. She was going to be in trouble if she was chosen to become the duke’s successor.
