"Magic is dangerous for those who weren't born with it."
Then came a certain damsel of destruction - overpowered even, though born as an ordinary human.
Through a special type of magic, she takes form of various mythical beings -
A slaying queen.
An eight-tailed ghoulish monster.
A scythe-wielding enthraller.
A red-eyed demonness.
Such and more.
But then again, great power has to come with a price.
--- An Excerpt ---
Eli made her way to school while barely keeping her collected exterior the whole time. Little did she know that this facade would drop the instant she took a look inside her locker. As soon as she opened it, she found a scatter of thumbtacks, spilled glue and scraps of papers along with the words "The True Man-eater" vandalized on the back of her locker's door.
It was downright horrendous.
It was a major disaster.
At these, Eli only found herself stiff frozen.
"Remember all those fairytales I've read? Where a dashing prince or a knight in shining armor always comes to save his damsel in distress? I don't want things to turn out like that. I don't want to be Cinderella anymore..."
Steeling her resolve to protect those around her, she decided to become one with the darkness and control things from the shadows starting this point.
--- Story Synopsis ---
This is where a bookworm's love for reading, fused with a little touch of magic, gives birth to a half-heroine and half-villainess protagonist.
Grey hair, thick glasses and a gloomy appearance overall - though an outstanding student, everyone steers clear of Angelica "Eli" Claes. Unable to make friends due to her nerdy mien, Eli often drowns herself in the world of fiction and immerses most of her time in the company of books.
"Books are just better companions than people, I guess..."
Never had she imagined that she'd also get to be in the company of a group of gentlemen who're just too perfect to be considered 'non-fiction'.
With the appearance of this ever popular Student Council at her precious oasis, the stupendous library of Canaan Private Academy, trouble leads to another.
The most befuddling thing is when she gained the memories of the antagonist in a fantasy novel she'd been reading - the villainous Empress who fell on her own blade, Venus.
Ever since, she found herself causing troubles to the esteemed Student Council instead -
Enter the perfect Student Council President who's all smiles and sparkles, the charming and blithesome Vice President, the gallant Public Information Officer known for being a social butterfly, a young heir who strives to surpass his elder brother, and a certain classmate of hers sought by every Sports club at school yet chose to work as a library assistant instead?
Little did the bookworm know that these people aren't really who they appear to be.
