All this discussion makes me sad with the original star maiden. If Remilia is trapped inside when Emi took over her body, what's to say Pina isn't?

Imagine OG!Pina is the usual good heroine and one day, as a child, a bitch took over her body, prostitute it, do bad things to it.

Remilia is lucky the one that possessed her was Emi.

I hope we can see OG!Pina one day

Remilia: I am the villainess! I do things solely to revenge my bff Emi who was wronged! Soon, I will unleash my super duper evil plan to get back at my enemy!

Also Remilia: Save the entire demon dimension from destruction, better the life of demons in the human's world, try to change the picture of demons so that they can live with humans in peace.

Remilia: Those are totally for evil purpose, I swear!

Actually, perfectly logical. Imo the evil portrayed in many works is extremely two-dimensional with no depth at all. Especially if you are playing video games and have an option to go for the evil route. Most of the choices you get are counterproductive and dumb.

Evil would never be as dumb as murdering people left and right. Evil would work these people to the bone while whispering sweet nothings to them.

Remilia is smart and heartless person. Even with how poor the WN translations are, I like that you can still understand exactly what type of devil she is.

spoilers please

I only vaguely remember Star Maiden's ending. If anyone else would pitch in, I'd be much obligated as well.

Long story short, beside losing everything. Star Maiden ends up disfigured and forced to work at the quarry with other criminals, majority of whom are men. What happens to her daily is no funny thing, and I can't remember if there's any reason why she is still being kept alive.

Original Star Maiden is one of the reasons why Remilia is such a good villain.


Hope we won't have to wait long to see the conclusion! :hearts:

Thanks for the chapter!

Typos & edit suggestions:
  • p7 Many came to the estate to study then return with their newly cultivated skills to their homeland -> to study and then return / to study before returning
  • p8 As for me, I am now able to count money I can help out! -> money, I can
  • p12 [the "can" in the first text bubble is slightly off-screen]
  • p13 "The shopkeeper's products are alluring, I have no intentions of challenging the government authority." -> While the shopkeeper's products || the government's authority
  • p14 “In that case, isn’t it more logical to not set up a store and have the shopkeeper sell the potion for that price?” -> [For which price? What's the reference point here?]
  • p21 we arrived now. -> we have arrived now. / we've arrived now. / we've arrived.
  • p23 you are living quite well, you have subverted -> you are living quite well. You have subverted
  • p23 I cannot deny, ever since -> I cannot deny that. Ever since
  • p24 "I often say this while refusing my many invitations, in case I need to keep it handy." || "There has been a lot of information." || "I doubt this brat has a chance to even make a loan." -> [I didn't understand these panels, or their relation to the surrounding panels.]
  • p24 to Miss Remilia, from here on out -> to Miss Remilia. From here on out
  • p25 Throne's shop -> Thorne's shop
  • p25 Another thing, in addition -> Another thing. In addition
  • p26 I am afraid that this business deal is much bigger -> ["I am afraid" sounds like the wrong connotation here.]
  • p26 Throne's shop -> Thorne's shop
  • p35 This means that 'love' is necessary. -> It requires 'love'. / What's required is 'love'.

This.
People think that being evil is killing everyone all the time. But it make no sense, you cant achieve anything by doing this.

Evej though ahe claims to using them, not just ANY third rate villainess could rehabilitate a completely smeared and feared race. I'm so happy for them though, the beginning of the chapter made me teary.

Thanks so much for the tl.

Where did you read the WN? If you still remember, it would really be a great help. With how irritating the SM and her paramour is at the start, it just makes me want to read their downfall.

Yo. What. WHAT.

That's so fucking genius oh my god. A musical to act as propaganda, I cannot with this. Also, I like that marquis guy. He's a lively character but you can see the calculation and arrogance behind his flamboyance. Good shit!! Excellent chapter!!!

I'll further expand on the Star Maidens ending: Eventually she starts to get desensitized to all the things she is going through so Remilia learns dream magic and begins infiltrating her dreams at night and showing her a world in which she has happiness and is friendly with everyone only for her to have to wake up each day into the reality of eternal suffering

Thanks for translating! And happy new year, everyone!

I don't know if it's because I really love this artist's work, but am I the only who really digs chubby Countess design?

I really hope this series gets animated one day.

Spoilers regarding the ending in the WN. From what i remember (so some things could be wrong), after witnessing how her body was abused by "that", OG!Pina's Soul eventually leaves her body and moves to the Spiritual world as a means of escape, so there is no way for her to return back as Pina.

Remilia on the other hand, looks for a way to save Emi's Soul inside her body. And in trying to do so, she finds the method to apply the soul of someone inside her womb and allow them to reincarnate.

During this time, Remilia comes across OG!Pina's Soul, and convinces her to use her body to reincarnate as a new born, with no memories of her past to which OG!Pina's Soul accepts. Remilia does this as she wanted to save the original because Emi would have done the same, as well as to see whether the reincarnation method actually worked or not.

Upon it's success, with OG!Pina's Soul being born as Remilia's Son (if i remember right, she didn't want to be born as a girl, because of what "that" did to her body). Remilia next goes on to reincarnate Emi's Soul as her daughter.
