I got reincarnated as a Princess
Ren, a 21-year-old gamer, lives for fantasy worlds—especially Realm of the Eight Crowns, a beloved RPG where players guide a noble princess through war, love, and destiny. But the game hides a darker path—one where everything goes wrong and the gentle heroine is replaced by a merciless tyrant: Princess Ash. Ren always avoided those endings. He hated Ash.
Until he wakes up as her.
Now trapped in the body of the most feared villain in the game—still partly himself, but seen by all as the infamous princess—Ren must navigate palace politics, wary servants, and a life he never wanted. With no clue how he got here or how to return home, he hides behind Ash’s name while trying to stay true to who he really is.
In the castle, his first days are clumsy and surreal: dodging nobles, bonding awkwardly with the Queen, and studying the strange magic of this world in secret. But at a grand realm-wide gathering—one where the game’s true protagonist, Lin Qui, is supposed to make his debut—Ren's quiet resolve is shattered when he’s wrongly accused of theft.
With the eyes of the realm turning toward him and destiny closing in, Ren must decide: will he continue pretending to be Ash? Or rewrite the story entirely?
