I appeared back in the Love Fairy Kingdom.
Hoards of Love Fairies gathered around excitedly.
The golden board of achievers loomed in front of me, its polished surface gleaming like it held some sacred truth—a shrine to success and failure alike. The names etched in flawless script glistened under the soft palace light, each score a badge of honor worn by those who had mastered the kingdom's shallow games.
Doverel had claimed the top spot again—450 couples in a single month. Of course she did. She was the shining star everyone wanted to follow, the darling of the kingdom's broken system.
And me?
Dead last.
Not that it mattered.
Sure, the day was still young. I had hours left to rack up a few more names, to chase after scraps of recognition. But let's be honest—no matter how many times I contorted myself to fit into their perfect little mold, I'd stay at the bottom. They didn't want me. I didn't want their approval.
And why should I care?
