I never thought I’d become a criminal mastermind…” Zannicka was summoned to another world to be its salvation. A hero. A weapon. A lie. The realm she enters doesn’t want saving—it feeds on corruption. Power isn’t earned through virtue, but through calculated cruelty, quiet betrayals, and the bodies left behind when morality becomes inconvenient. At first, she resists. She saves a child. She clings to who she was. But this world doesn’t reward mercy. It punishes it. Guided by a manipulator with a smile too smooth to trust and hunted by the only man who remembers who she used to be, Zannicka begins to change. Not all at once—but in fragments. In choices, she justifies. In lines she redraws. In blood, she convinces herself was necessary. Until one question becomes impossible to answer: Was she ever the hero… or was she always meant to become this? In a realm where crime is currency, and truth is a shifting illusion, Zannicka rises—not as a savior, but as something far more dangerous. A mind that understands the system. A force that bends it. A woman who no longer knows if she’s stopping the evil… —or becoming it.
