by Hanirim, Haji (Illustrator), 한이림

아그니스 공작의 시한부 딸을 대신하여
황태자와 결혼하기 위해 입양된, '나비아 아그니스.'

"진짜 가족이 되고 싶어요."

가족의 애정에 목을 맸던 나비아는
학대를 받으면서도 황후가 되기 위해 최선을 다하지만,
공작의 친딸인 비비안의 병이 낫는 순간, 가족들에게 버려진다.

아니, 그 때마다 버려졌다는 것이 맞을 것이다.

"대체 얼마나 더 노력해야 하는 걸까요? 당신들의 가족이 되려면."

나비아는 피에 젖은 장갑을 벗었다.
그러자 오른 손목에 남들에게는 보이지 않는 숫자가 드러났다.

1

그녀는 숫자를 내려다보며 담담히 고백했다.

"이제 가족 놀이는 그만하려고요."

그 순간, 손목의 숫자가 바뀌었다.

0

그렇게 다시 시작된 삶.

"나를 건드렸다면, 대가는 치러야지."

과연 그녀는 아그니스 공작가에 복수하고,
성인이 될 때까지 자신을 보호해줄 임시 가족을 찾을 수 있을 것인가.

Now that I'm reading it properly
Ummmm, helllllooooooo Ricardo. How are you 😍😍 and Erkin, my beautiful silver haired, blue eyed man?!?!

Up to chapter 94

OH MY GOSH YOU CANT JUST END A CHAPTER THIS WAY 😭😂

Ahem. I need to go back because I read until chapter 11 and then jumped way ahead to see of we ever got a timeskip (the answer is no) and then found myself at the end of what was available... so I've missed a LOT of in the middle stuff.

Vale pues no estuvo mal, la verdad me gusto mucho y me lo leí bastante rápido.

Me salvó de un bloqueo lector, realmente le estoy agradecida porque ya no sabía que hacer jej.

Bien, Naviah una niña la cual posee la habilidades del Dios de este mundo, ella ha vivido 8 vidas y en su novena vida decide que no tiene sentido aferrarse a algo que no existirá nunca. Por eso decide irse a la familia Agnes para mudarse con el Duque Edressed(? Creo que era si, bueno este tipo es casi igualito a ella solo que claro, es adulto y lo de él es infinito... o eso se da a entender.

Bien, ella tiene una marca de medialuna en su muñeca, la cual es negra y esta permite robar temporalmente las habilidades de los demás. Esta piola

El final... la Emperatriz me da nervios, rari el último cap

Naviah just wants to be loved. Life after life she does everything in her power to finally be apart of a family, but now, she's on her last redo. It breaks my heart that she spent lifetime after lifetime trying to be loved by a family that in my honest opinion, never deserved her. So rooting for her to break free from that family and everything she ever wanted was not a hard decision to make. But it was absolutely heartbreaking that she had to make that decision in the first place - like why couldn't y'all love her? But she ended up somewhere much better, even thought the road there hurt like hell.

Naviah was adopted from an orphanage by Duke Agnus. She has spent 8 lives trying to earn the family's love and affection but she is never accepted. Free from her old desires (and magical brainwashing) on her last life she decides to get away from them and find her own happiness. Using her foreknowledge and skills she offers the cure of a terminal illness to a magician, reveals secrets to dispatch household servants, and then makes a deal with Duke Esselred. Surprisingly she finds herself able to achieve many of her old wishes in this timeline, but can she trust any of it and survive the Imperial family and truly escape the clutches of her tormentors.

It's a very pretty manga/webtoon. Artistic layers often are added over the panels and crisp color combinations pop. It focuses on mood and the details add to the text to evoke a stronger narrative. The imagery and plot are not realistic (infinite time loops, mind control, perfectionism, victoriously scheming eight year olds, chronic bullies, etc.) but the emotions portrayed ground the material. It is easy to root for characters who have suffered loss and pain to find happiness with their found family and against people who are obsessed with blaming a child for their own defects. The pacing is very slow, some as slice of life but more on principle. This is not just about revenge and thus the childhood arc is long, leaving our protagonist juvenile for a significant portion of events. Seasons one and two follow the source material rather closely and are engaging.
However, the story starts stronger than it finishes. Part of this is the mysteries have been revealed and it becomes a series of tasks to complete to get revenge... but part of it is that despite having limited time the main characters are separate from each other for large swaths of time which is disappointing.
