*Volume 1 - Free Entry
Rei is the undisputed tyrant of her elite high school—respected, feared, and absolutely in control. As the student council president, her word is law and her presence untouchable. That is, until one cocky transfer student dares to challenge her rule.
Sho Kirisaki isn't just fearless. He's infuriatingly familiar, and somehow, he sees through every wall Rei's built around herself. His sharp words and smug smile hit harder than any rebellion, awakening fragments of a forgotten past life—one where Rei ruled not a school, but a war-torn kingdom as a bloodstained queen.
As vivid flashbacks of executions and battlefields collide with everyday school life, Rei must confront a terrifying possibility: that Sho was her nemesis in that other world... and maybe still is.
What begins as a high-stakes power struggle in the classroom spirals into a deeper conflict of identity, memory, and emotional chaos. Is Rei truly the tyrant she claims to be—or is she running from something much more vulnerable?
Filled with razor-sharp banter, emotional depth, and bursts of magical realism, So What If I'm a Tyrant? is a tsundere-powered romantic fantasy comedy with a twist of psychological drama. Perfect for fans of strong female leads, enemies-to-something-maybe-more dynamics, and stories that straddle the line between two worlds.
This first volume contains over 12,000 words of fast-paced, character-driven storytelling that blends school-life tension with epic fantasy echoes. Get ready for a battle of pride, memory, and maybe—just maybe—something like love.
