The first half of the eleventh<\/a> Yongsa Pati Ttaelyeochiubnida<\/a> novel concludes the long-running Kyle\/Raniel arc that began in the first (rather than the series as a whole).

Aku no Reijou to Juuni no Hitomi<\/a> (English subtitle: The Legendary Villainess and Her Elite Assassins<\/em>) has a slightly misleading English title (she’s a duke’s daughter rather than a princess) and starts off with that standard villainess scenario of ‘crown prince fianc\u00e9 getting stolen by a light magic user’. The twist here though is that there is no twist, with the villainess being actually villainous and wholly guilty of her crimes. <\/p>\n

The actual twist is that she gets a second chance anyway and through the power of misunderstandings similar to those found in Monster no Niku<\/a> (a work by the same author<\/a>) becomes something resembling a good person.
