Elizabeth Leiston, the daughter of Haldoria’s powerful prime minister, is the picture of a refined noble lady and the perfect future queen. But when her fiancé publicly humiliates her, calls off their engagement, and starts spreading nasty rumors about her, Elizabeth reaches her breaking point. Why should her only friend be her loyal maid, and why should she continue to serve a country that doesn’t respect her? Elizabeth concludes she won''t stand it any longer and will bring down the kingdom, even if it''s the last thing she does! As such, she uses her quick wit and, more importantly, her seven magic grimoires to embark on a quest for revenge. And let her tell you, there will be hell to pay!

After Elizabeth escapes from the Kingdom of Haldoria, she poses as Ellie Leis and settles nicely into the Lebrick Viscounty. The growth of her business inspires her to expand her powerbase to execute her revenge. She sets out for the imperial capital alongside her trusted confidant Mireille and new apprentice Lunoa, only to realize she’ll need more staff she can trust. As Traitre grows larger by the day, she must also secure a stable production base to source material. But what happens when the war threatens that very production base? Elizabeth may need to trade her quill for a blade sooner than expected...

A border conflict threatens Ellie’s brand-new production base, forcing her to embark on a military expedition and assemble a volunteer army of adventurers and mercenaries. Once she makes her way to Sarjas, the aristocrat-turned-merchant regroups with Lucas’s forces. It is now time to launch a covert operation to take back Broccen Fortress, a strategic stronghold that has fallen to the Sarjan and an infamous mercenary corps Ellie has heard so much about. To complicate matters further, Prince Friede and his loyal knight, Robert, appear to be involved in the war. Will Ellie and her allies succeed in driving back the invaders and uncovering the Haldorian prince’s plot?

Ellie has successfully taken her first step toward revenge, and she has no intention of deviating from that path anytime soon! Her achievements during the border conflict between the Kingdom of Sarjas and the Yutear Empire have earned her a valuable reward: a chance to obtain a Special License—an invaluable certification that would allow her to grow Traitre faster than ever. To get her hands on that precious permit, Ellie has to impress the most influential merchants of the empire—the seven members of the Merchants’ Guild Council.

After a successful dungeon dive, Elizabeth—now Ellie Leis—and the others emerge with the necessary supplies to create an antidote for the victims of the king poison slime...and with a little girl. Stranger still, the mysterious child they found inside the corpse of a fire drake considers Ellie her mother! Unwilling to cast her away, Ellie adopts her and names her Alice. Ellie wants to do right by the young girl and raise her properly, but the former aristocrat is unsure how to proceed because she didn’t have the most loving childhood. As she tries to navigate motherhood, Ellie discovers counterfeit money in the empire! She immediately attempts to trace it and finds it might have connections to the firm she used to own in the kingdom...
