The Villainess Turns the Hourglass — Chapter 1

Stepping into The Villainess Turns the Hourglass - Chapter 1, readers are overwhelmingly united by one thing: their absolute *fury* towards the character Mielle! 😂🔥 Many are revisiting this 'masterpiece' or 'comfort read', specifically for the sweet taste of revenge it promises.

Mielle quickly earns titles ranging from "enemy number one" to... well, let's just say readers have *creative* nicknames involving her seemingly 'too pretty' name (like 'honey' or 'Mielle' sounding like kitchen appliances) and her unpleasant personality. People are literally wishing her suffering and contemplating volcanic excursions for her! 🌋

A few newer readers initially found it a bit tricky to tell Aria and Mielle apart visually, noting their similar looks. 🤔 And everyone seems to agree on one plot point: how on earth did NOBODY hear Mielle's full villainous confession during the execution?! The guards must have been conveniently deaf! 😂

Overall, this first chapter sets the stage perfectly, sparking immediate strong feelings (mostly negative towards Mielle!) and building immense anticipation for Aria's promised revenge journey. Get ready! 😎
