description Villainess Level 99 Overview

Villainess Level 99 is a Japanese light novel series by Satori Tanabata, illustrated by Tea and published by Kadokawa Books. It follows Yumiella Dolkness, a woman reincarnated as the hidden boss of an otome-style role-playing game, who reaches level 99 before the main story begins. Her overwhelming strength conflicts with her wish to live quietly, creating a fantasy narrative built around misunderstandings, school life, and the conventions of villainess fiction.
