i think it was mentioned that mielle did think aria was trying to take her place. she looked down on her "commoner behavior," and i have a feeling she's got somewhat of an inferiority complex as well. we know that she thinks of aria as a shameless slut, even when aria hasn't done anything, so this adds onto the previous argument. she's afraid of aria proving herself as someone 'noble,' and eventually losing the advantage she has on her.
yes, i think i would've enjoyed watching aria and mielle "battle it out" in a show of wits. however, that would be a wild story full of ups and downs, and wouldn't nearly be as satisfying as seeing aria just completely curb-stomp mielle.

not gonna lie, when i first realized "oh she has magical powers" i was like "what the fuck this is completely random." it does seem to be just for convenience and to speed up the plot, but the money-earning period (casino, sugar, etc.) would've been dragged out at least 5 chapters longer. i think it's a pretty good addition overall, it's unique, it's convenient, it saves us from reading 5 chapters worth of "aria is going to learn how to rob the nobles so she can start up her business."
and yes lmao like huh? why casino? i mean, it's probably the first way to make money off of a time-controlling device the author thought of. but it also ties in with her meeting with asher at the casino, him realizing she's got cool powers, and her realizing he's the crown prince. she ran into him bc he was chasing the evil casino owner. the franchise asher was chasing, catching, and passing off to the aristocratic faction had to be one with high risk, otherwise aria's scheme wouldn't work, so a casino was perfect. in actuality, author is a whole genius ahaha

aria not recognizing him as the crown prince was probably due to her deep trust in the timeline of her past life. in that timeline, she didn't even get to breathe in the same room as him, and she would never believe in her awesome luck to run into him outside in the town while he was undercover. and in her past life, all she heard was that crown prince and isis were a perfect couple, yada yada, so she would naturally think the crown prince loved isis, and that the rando running around courting her wouldn't be the crown prince that's supposed to be in love with isis.

I just wanted to say that the Chinese name that has been going around for this manhwa is 时光沙漏·逆转命运的少女. I don't know how to add an alternative name to the list, so I'm hoping someone who can sees this.

She used the hourglass to turn time back too many times so she actually is older while actual time hasn't passed. @Shunrei

incase some people forgot, apparently aria is maturing faster than her age proclaims due to her continuos usage of the hourglass, it was stated by aria herself that it seemed to be a side effect from using it.

Ooow, Aria always surprises me. But that man is just dumb. I mean, I'd recognize something I chose myself the moment I saw it.

Man Aria is so charming haha, I'd ship her with everyone. She's the type I'd imagine having a reverse harem 🤣

Okay but Aria giving straight face, body and fashion. She looks absolutely beautiful and I’m here for it.

Although she is fifteen and her life span is declining because of her hourglass, so she’s growing faster but it makes Mielle look like an ignorant child (which she is). Hehe.

I love a strong woman character. To me she’s even more beautiful now than her last life. Even if she’s still a villainess in her own right, it’s not the dumb and impulsive type.

I came multiple times while reading.

First this is what dio is if he isnt the antagonist. His HOO.. is often overlapping with her laugh in my mind.

Next is plot, gosh I hate misunderstanding but this one didn't reach over my threshold though it's reaaaly close to bullshit.

And most importantly the most arousing thing of all...
