I Want to Maintain My Stepmother’s Character

The title is wrong: the isekai’d female-lead does NOT want to play the role of an evil stepmother, instead she is FORCED to, because “otherworldly invaders” are identified by their unusual behaviour and executed in this fantasy country.

Such, the poor female lead has quite a hard time imitating a typical fairy-tale’s evil-stepmother-personality, even though she likes her cute red-haired little step-daughter.

This story could have been funny if not for all the horrible extremes … however that constant death-threat and the female lead’s clumsy half-baked way of “acting evil” towards her surroundings is neither witty, comical nor even interesting enough to get me hooked. Pity.

The art is very typical for manhuas, but I like it (especially the dresses and the male lead’s long hair).
