The One Within the Villainess - Vol. 4 Ch. 21 - Trade Alliance

[OSAITUS]

Oh Pina... you and your magnificently punchable face, YES... dig an even deeper hole and take as many as you can with you, so the revenge is even more grand!

 

[Georgeorat]

So MC neither care nor love anyone outside of EMI. I just realised this doesn't have a romance tag which is pretty logical i guess. Any romance develepment after this point would feel extremely forced.

Well, there was romance tag on this series before, and there is one on novel updates.
And then there are spoilers.
So...

 

[AnotherDuck]

Wait... I thought usually evil woman/man are hot and sexy.

If it's a character who will be converted to the good side, they're good looking. There's also an exception for fanservice bait characters. But most of the time, appearance equals morality.

Although generally it the other way around in terms of cause and effect: If a character is ugly, they're evil.

No. She may rationalize it to be all for emi. But she genuinely came to care about and love her villagers, Sophia, Anhel and others like Sara.
Look up the tv tropes, specifically becoming the mask.

I mean, Fake! Pina embodies the trope of evil sociopaths reincarnating as the heroines truly believing that this is a game and not a new reality. This they can treat others like pond scum without so much as an afterthought.

Considering her hellish life before she was rescued, and then this twat hijacked her body, I need og! Pina happiness.

Also, she’s virtually powerless, in terms of social clout, public opinion, and star maiden powers in general

She gets her happy ending, trust me bro!

 

[lolfacesayshi]

Oh? Is it time for another round of Petard Hoisting?

 

[WhimsiCat]

It's because you didn't do anything beside living as you please you bitch.

Honestly would love to see more games that have the world move along whether you do anything or not.

Tho preferrably without the 'it's reset o'clock' like Majora's Mask.

 

[Random_Passer-by]

I'm seriously impressed by the artist's ability to make Pina's inner ugliness surface in her expressions.

????

reads reviews since they dont see a point in reading at this point because the manga is like, 2-7 months from completion Oh so thats why the like, 3 times she has to go complete a fetch quest she just has already done it offscreen with no hint of having done so.

 

[CardinalBirb]

man i feel awful for the real Pina. she must be inside watching like this like Emi was for MC.

 

[temimi]

I kinda don't want Remila to accept the marriage proposal because she's obviously not interested in anything that doesn't pertain to Emi's revenge and I'd feel bad for Angel if his feelings weren't reciprocated...

 

[Oklam]

Seems like this RPG has quest time limits.

na, she just didn't know she was playing against player 2

I mean... she already KNOWS the fetch quests exist because of Emi's knowledge. what's the point of showing "she went and did all this monster slaying to grind item drops"? we know she can kill things with ease. she knows she needs the things.
if a streamer was playing an rpg and was like "I'm underleveled I'm gonna grind off stream" and then returned next stream to play the story more, I wouldn't be upset about that

 

[Tesla]

It's Time...

 

[dragonfbare]

Swear I could hear the sound of a bear trap snapping shut in those last few pages

 

[Nijitori]

She gets her happy ending, trust me bro!

Oh I know. But I’m dying to see it

 

[gum_rummy]

I love Pina's facial expressions.

 

[Nijitori]

Spoiler

No. During the condemnation event, she detached herself from her own body cus her spirit couldn’t take it anymore. So the faker doesn’t have anymore powers since majority was exclusive to the real Pina

 

[Teaborg]

So is Remilia matchmaking for Emi? Because she clearly thinks Angel is a better match for her than prince fickle.

But I don’t know if even the webmaster herself realizes how good a fit the Demon King is for the real her- machinations and all.

Dude seems like he’d be into her pragmatically ruthless side (we’re alike, you and I type shit.)

 

[yoshiii]

That one page of Angel, it's so exquisite.

Time of retribution is near.
