It looks interesting, it’s a pity that it's just a promotional webtoon

My question has always been, where do these “novel heroines” come from?
We’re always beings told that someone as backstabbing like that would be written as the heroine of a popular novel, even though irl it would actually gather a lot of hate from real readers.

@keimichi nah its all about POV. If youve read novels that have "black-bellied" or"cunning" protags, the readers often tend to love the protag's personality and think theyre "badass"or "unique". Change the POV to a cannon fodder then you'll feel more towards them 🤷‍♀️

The artwork is so beautiful, it's a shame it isn't a full webtoon 😧
The way is to look for the novel and read it~

Yeah, part of it is the POV, but there’s definitely a line drawn somewhere. Most of the time, the “black-bellied” person has some sort of baseline that is “those who are nice to me, I will be nice to them in return”. Their morality isn’t based on justice, but they still keep “loyalty/be nice to clique” mentality. Otherwise they’re just bastard and will definitely get criticisms from a lot of the readers.
There’s some exceptions, but usually those exceptions are not in this type of settings. Those are set up to be anti-hero’s in the first place where hero’s aren’t expected to be good. Whereas here, we are told that these heroines are from the hero trope, not the antihero trope.

The “heroines” in these type of villainess series often crosses that line though.

Jesus christ, if only I could draw that good too haha. Does anyone have the raw? It doesn't seem like the novel is translated at all when I tried to find it on NU. :(

I love the art! I'm willing to read an entire story regardless of whether it's good or not just for the art.
