Sorry, can’t recommend this story at all, as of the end of season one.
After a one chapter of the present day meeting between the main character and the Archduke, we spend the next 35 chapters seeing the main character’s childhood, learn how she’s been reincarnated into a tragic novel where the world is going to end (not really, but lots of people die before the ML wins in the novel), see how she met the Archduke, and begins implementing her plan to earn money in order to save the world.
At chapter 37 we time skip back from age 10ish to chapter 1’s meeting in progress with the Archduke, and from there the plot goes to hell in a hand basket. It’s like the author realized they need to wrap up the first season in 9 chapters but still hadn’t put in all the necessary plot points and had to toss them all in right away. It’s confusing and frustrating, so I won’t bother going into detail since it’s just a cluster f@&? Clearly meant to add drama and make you want to read season two.
My recommendation: stop reading at the end of chapter 36 and assume that after their meeting our MC and archduke defeat the bad guys, save the world and living happily ever after.
Since that’s probably how the story will end anyways, you can save some time and skip the incoherent “we made it to adulthood and the end of the world is here” story arch.
P.S. The art style saved this story from a 1 star rating.
