About this listen

In this follow-up to the hit isekai, a villain continues to find her power—and develop her sadism—even as she's haunted by her ex-love.

Seventeen years after her rebirth into a magical medieval world, Everly Vae Balsar, the Empress, has made it. With her exceptionally potent earth magic and powers of spiritual manipulation, she stands poised to conquer a kingdom that lives in fear of her and her dangerous servants: Carter the goblin assassin, the marauding General Grail, and her elementals, the sadistic Eris and ditzy Titania. She's a villain and proud of it.

Well, she's not a fan of cannibalistic monsters. Villainy is her domain, not the presumptuous Mister Whisper's. But at the moment, Everly is experiencing something she's never felt before: genuine regret over killing someone. Specifically, her mage maybe-love Fenneth.

As she reconnects with her conniving father and impetuous sister and continues to grow her power, Everly's schemes slowly become more complex. But she's still haunted by her actions—and maybe by Fenneth as well . . .

The second volume of the hit portal fantasy series—with more than 400,000 views on Royal Road—now available on Kindle, Kindle Unlimited, and Audible!

I said this before with volume 1, but this NEEDS an anime adaptation and it needs it yesterday.

Our girl continues to be as nuts as she always is. I have a thing for crazy girls, but this woman would terrify even me away from trying to date her.

I absolutely love the voice actress they chose for this series. I honestly can’t imagine a better woman for the job. She’s got such a wide range for just Everly alone.


Keeping with this series tendency to make pop culture references, I feel it appropriate to drop the old star wars meme. But adapted a little to make it fit.

“This is getting out of hand. Now there are four of them.”

You’ll understand once you you’ve listened.

God I love the MC so much.
