“Am I…inside my favorite otome game!?”
The protagonist has reincarnated into the world of “The Ring of Lapis Lazuli”, her beloved otome game—but as the villainess, Tiara Rose.
The plot unfolds according to the original otome game, and her engagement to Prince Hartknights, the crown prince from Lapis Lazuli, falls apart.
However, an unexpected plot twist arises when Aquasteed, the prince of the neighboring Marinforest kingdom, suddenly shows up to propose to her.
