I'm Tired, Let's Destroy It All

Cen Jing wakes up inside a novel with a devil's bargain: play the villain, and her family lives. Refuse, and they suffer. Disguised as a man, she claws her way to prime minister, becoming the realm's most hated figure—all to protect those she loves. But when the protagonist's sword finally pierces her heart and the 'mission complete' notification flashes... she's had enough. The system promised freedom. It lied. Now, with nothing left to lose and a second chance at life, Cen Jing has one thought: if the world wants a villain, she'll give them an apocalypse.
