I Will Raise the Villain Properly

Lucella, mourning the loss of her sister, has taken on the responsibility of raising her nephew, Lucian. One fateful day, she discovers that their world exists within the pages of a book, and that Lucian is destined to become a villain—a cruel one at that, who will torment the story’s hero and meet a gruesome end.

“I cannot let my beloved nephew perish!”

Determined to honor her sister’s memory and protect Lucian, Lucella resolves to guide him toward becoming a good person rather than a villain. But her challenges multiply when Lucian unexpectedly declares, “Auntie, I want you to marry the Marquis.”

As if navigating his upbringing wasn’t complicated enough, now he’s making bizarre requests!

“My uncle may not make the best husband, but at least he looks presentable.” Even the original heroine of the story seems to be conspiring to set up a match!

“I concur,” her uncle chimes in, as if it’s all perfectly reasonable.

“Apologies, but marriage is off the table until I’ve raised Lucian well.”

“So, you mean… as long as Lucian is raised properly, it’s all good?”

“Th-That’s not what I—”

“I understand.”

Why is everyone suddenly so enthusiastic?!
