Joyce's transmigration turned nightmarish the moment she awakened as a vampire in an otome manga. Faced with kidnapping a princess while a determined knight blocks her path sword-drawn, she makes a shocking choice: release the captive and bind the hero instead. Her rebellion isn't fierce—it's apathetic. Rather than embrace the villain's destiny, Joyce chooses the salted fish way of life: wanting nothing, dreaming nothing, doing nothing. In a world populated by gods, dragons, magic, and royalty, her charming indifference becomes the ultimate act of defiance against a narrative written without her consent.
