Daughter Of Earth; Surviving In A Otome-Game

Alex thought college would be his transformation.  Far from his former classmates, College was the perfect opportunity to transform into an entirely different person. Gone was the pathetic, lonely, introverted boy that would cower in the back of the class— replaced by the bold, social, and extroverted man. At least, that was his plan. Too bad none of his plans ever worked out for him. Instead of going to clubs, partying, or finding himself a girlfriend, he crashed. Only his best friend since childhood, Aaron, who also attended the same College as him, helped him through the darkest days of his life. Just when everything seemed to look up for him however, a freak disaster ruined everything. As the saying goes, sometimes, you need to destroy everything to rebuild better. Reborn into a strange fantasy world where magic and swords replaced science and guns, as the opposite gender no less, Alex, now Lilah Renault Sylvia, must contend with noble politics, fear, and the threat of the centennial demonic invasion. As if that wasn't enough, the Dukedom she was born into descended directly from the divine children of the old gods, making her, however infinitesimal, a Daughter of Earth. With the prospect of academy life before her, her family rewards her talent in Magecraft with a Guardian. A Knight specially trained as a contingency to take down and eliminate Daughters of Earth like her in the event she begins her transformation into a Witch.  And who else could her assigned Guardian be but Aaron?  [Participant in the Royal Road Writathon challenge]
