Having undergone reincarnation, Yumiella Dolkness finds herself thrust into the world of Light Magic and the Hero, an otome RPG where she takes on the role of the clandestine boss. Determined to secure her survival, she dedicates her childhood to relentless level grinding. However, a twist of fate reveals an unintended consequence: Yumiella surpasses expectations, reaching the formidable Level 99 instead of the anticipated Level 10 for students. This overachievement not only attracts undue attention but also deviates from the meticulously crafted script of the game, setting the stage for unforeseen challenges in her reincarnated journey.
