I was an illegitimate daughter abandoned by the promiscuous emperor. From there, I ended up on the street where I learned that I had a knack for the sword. I competed in tournaments, became a mercenary, and I made a name for myself. Just when I had become the talk of the empire, the emperor wanted me back. In return, I demanded to be next in line for the throne. After years of hard work, I finally became empress and died happily. But here I am, alive again. Ugh, can’t a girl be left alone? This time, I’m going to be as lazy as I please! (Source: Tapas)

Read the full take

Juno here, and this one hits hard out of the gate. The heroine is an illegitimate daughter, abandoned by a careless emperor, who ends up on the street. There she discovers a knack for the sword, and she makes her name through tournaments and as a mercenary. Then the empire takes notice.The swordplay is the highlight. The fights carry momentum, and the full-colour pages give the action room to breathe. Her journey from the street to a name the court can't ignore is a satisfying, classic rise, and her independence is refreshing.The downside is that the court politics can feel generic, and the romance beats follow familiar paths. Some side characters are sketched rather than fleshed out. Still, it's a brisk, enjoyable fantasy for readers who love self-made heroines and clean action. Pick it up for the fights and stay for the rise.
