Overwork!
The MC pivots the story from the “original” pretty early, and it’s fascinating. Not only that, but she’s mentally three lives in one— what was (pre-isekai), what is (current), and what could have been (novel self’s memories). Not only does she have the novel’s plot in her mind, but she also becomes affected by the memories of the self that went along with the original storyline in the future.
The ML (?), of course, finds her anyway. We’re on the route of older man + older soul female lead. Honestly, I know some people have issues with it but the debate is always one side or the other. If the female lead with an old soul ends up with a partner who is age appropriate to her body, people wonder if it’s alright. And the inverse, an old soul with an age appropriate partner to her mind, is lauded as fetish material. (lays down) There is no winning. Big shrug
That said, romance is not the focus of the series. We just get to watch the FL get stronger and use her OP abilities to progress to her dreams. It does start as a sincere way to escape a horrible end, but it’s clear that the MC soon starts to pursue these dreams in earnest. And. It’s cute.
I really enjoyed it and I’m looking forward to more.
