Villainess: Reloaded! Blowing Away Bad Ends with Modern Weapons

Astrid von Oldenburg is no ordinary four-year-old. She’s a child prodigy with a passion for military technology who now finds herself reincarnated in the world of an otome game she played during her past life. But not as the heroine! As the game’s villainess, she's born with wealth, power, and a fearsome talent for magic. The only problem is that every route leads to her inevitable destruction. Or does it? What if averting her destruction was a simple matter of amassing enough firepower to annihilate anyone who dared even attempt to bring her down?! In a bid to resist fate, the young villainess embarks on the reproduction of all of her favorite weaponry. Whatever it takes, Astrid’s determined to blow away her bad ends with superior firepower!

Nine-year-old Astrid has been reincarnated as an otome game villainess, and now she’s locked in a battle with fate that she refuses to lose. Although she has found herself powerless to stop the sequence of events that she knows will end with her destruction, that could all be about to change. With a talent for magic and some knowledge from her geeky past-life, she’s already made herself an automatic pistol, an automatic rifle, a shotgun, a machine gun, and a grenade launcher. That’s quite an arsenal for a little girl in a world where soldiers still use crossbows...but it’s still not enough! Astrid won’t stop until she has enough firepower to make her unassailable, and that means bigger guns, more combat experience, and some morally questionable magic. She’s going to tear fate a new one, even if it means bringing down an entire empire!

As the heroine’s entrance draws ever closer, eleven-year-old villainess Astrid Sophie von Oldenburg is determined to defy her fate, no matter the cost. Now, the overwhelming power she craves may be within her grasp: after slaying a dragon, Astrid has drawn the attention of a secretive sect of witches willing to share their knowledge. Their lost magic—a collection of forbidden arts and blood magic spells—could be exactly what she needs to improve her guns and boost her war potential; it could even be enough to tip the balance in her favor should her family rise up against the empire. But since all good witches need a familiar, Astrid has her eyes on a divine beast powerful enough to fight by her side. She’ll have to tame it first, though. And when the dust settles, maybe she’ll finally be able to make that love potion and bring a spark to her ailing love life. After all, be it through love or war, Astrid’s determined to annihilate her fate by any means necessary!
