Summary
Princess Regina B. Alfare, the sole heir of the Elias Empire, met a brutal end. Betrayed by her fiancé, Duke Seulvei, she watched her empire crumble and her loved ones perish before falling in battle herself. But fate, it seems, had other plans. Waking up, Regina finds herself thrust back in time, to a pivotal moment before the empire’s tragic downfall.
The key to preventing history from repeating lies with her younger brother, Theor—the imperial family’s notorious ‘fool.’ In her previous life, Theor’s sudden ‘awakening’ made him a pawn for traitors, paving the way for the empire’s destruction. Now, Regina is determined to stop him from becoming an easily exploited ‘Hogu.’ But simply keeping him incompetent isn’t enough; she must mold him into a capable emperor, protect their father, and sway the scheming nobles who underestimate Theor. Her audacious plan? To become an even *greater* fool than Theor, diverting attention and manipulating events from the shadows. Can this ‘trash princess’ rewrite their destiny and save her family from ruin? Discover her cunning strategy in Chapter 1!
