The Villainess is an SS+ Rank Adventurer

Juliette Contzen is a lazy, good-for-nothing princess. Overshadowed by her siblings, she's left with little to do but nap, read, and occasionally cut the falling raindrops with her sword. Spotted one day by an astonished adventurer, he insists on grading Juliette's swordsmanship, then promptly has a mental breakdown at the result. Soon after, Juliette is given the news that her kingdom is on the brink of bankruptcy. At the threat of being married off, the lazy princess vows to do whatever it takes to maintain her current lifestyle.

Two rival factions, the Thieves Guild and Smugglers Guild, wage a war for supremacy over the streets and sewers of the kingdom's capital. Refusing to allow lawlessness and economic collapse to threaten her quality of life, Juliette Contzen, 3rd Princess and begrudging adventurer, boldly ventures forth to rescue her kingdom from the clutches of organized crime.

A magical snowstorm engulfs the northern forests of the kingdom, bringing with it the threat of the Winter Court. Yet even amidst news of a fae host massing upon the horizon, secession and rebellion still raises its head. The Duchy of Aquina has announced the Tournament of Crowns, threatening to plunge the realm into its deepest crisis.

The kingdom is besieged. Foul captains and dreaded pirates hold the coastal ports of the realm hostage, bringing all trade to a halt. Amidst the turmoil, news of a Golden Prince commanding the black fleet is whispered in fearful tones within the bars and taverns of Trierport. Refusing to witness her life of luxury being imperiled, Juliette Contzen, Third Princess and even more begrudging adventurer, valiantly strives forward to defend her kingdom's profit margins.

A mysterious mist descends on the mining town of Stermondt, drawing forth rumors of unseen shapes moving amidst the quiet streets. A hole into the abyss has been opened. And nobody knows what has awoken.

A shadow looms over the border. To the north, the Loerstadt Gate stands as the Kingdom of Tirea's bastion against the ambitions of the Grand Duchy of Granholtz. Yet its walls shake as attacks within the volatile border region threaten the fragile peace that exists between the two nations. Watched by the eyes of the continent, Juliette Contzen, 3rd Princess and sometimes adventurer, strives forth to secure her kingdom's borders against the wiles of the Grand Duchess.

Deep within the countryside, a mysterious prosperity throngs the market town of Hartzwiese. Merchants, travelers, and thieves crowd the bustling streets, all the while rumors of a baroness whose generosity and virtue surpass all others abound, shaking commoners and nobility alike from their idleness. The Rose Princess is here. And only an actual princess can stop her. Even if she's sometimes an adventurer.

Above the famed Royal Institute of Mages, an ominous black hole saps all light from the sky. Fear and confusion reign as day turns to an endless night, with neither rich nor poor spared from the effects of the bleak horizon. Horrified at the threat to the innocent begonias in her orchard, Juliette Contzen, 3rd Princess and somehow even more begrudging adventurer than last time, gallantly chooses to meet the growing darkness.
