Divine spark: the sun and begger

Redeyespirate
In a world ruled by a decaying Holy Empire built on the twisted teachings of the sun god Apollo, faith has become a weapon, and love a forbidden luxury. The empire’s power rests in the hands of eight dukedoms—seven gilded with excess, one buried in snow and silence. Grand Duchess Athena Alexios governs the harsh northern frontier with an iron will and unmatched strength. A revered warrior, feared by nobles and worshipped by her people, she is cold, disciplined, and utterly untouchable. None dare question her rule—nor the heavy loneliness it hides. That is, until a strange, scarred beggar appears in her capital… and begins to dance. Shunya is no ordinary wanderer. With no memory of his divine origin, he sings and moves with a forgotten joy that awakens something long buried in the hearts of the oppressed. He is an innovator, a rebel, a living contradiction—dangerous in his honesty, disarming in his idealism, and completely indifferent to the Empire’s brutal hierarchy. Their meeting is destined. Their union, necessary. For the gods are not silent. And the world cannot heal until love, truth, and rebellion rise hand in hand.

Who is the Villain?

[If you are looking for a slow romance, you can give it a check if not, you'll be disappointed] Aera, a young 28-year-old was about to make her dream debut by opening her own floral shop that could be shipped in and around. Nevertheless, things didn't go as she planned. One would say that transmigrating to a book sound like a fantasy, however to Aera, it became a nightmare when she woke up in an unknown world even when she hasn't died yet. With an unexpected turnout, her life was hanging by a thin thread. Aera was presented with an option-either she goes back to her world with her memory erased or enter the other world, and comes back with the memory intact to have her revenge. Never did she expect of choosing the worst villain of all. A character in a book where she killed the Empress and her unborn child. Worst, the male lead was reborn time after time with his memory intact. His grudge still hung on torturing the villainess. Even more worst, the ML was a split image of her long-time crush. ----- "Do you hate me that much?" As soon as the question was raised, a table lamp flew past through the said person, smashing against the wall behind him. "More than enough to kill you right now." The female figure responded with nothing but hatred and disgust in her tone. Her jewel eyes that glow under the dark never left her gaze on the other male person who was sitting on her opposite. ----- The male lead wasn't the only one Aera had to put a guard on but even other characters when one after the other began to make an appearance. The more the flow gets out of the plot the more twisted it gets. Her only goal was to survive so she could go back home.  P.S:- English is not my first language and I am weak in grammar. I'll be happy to receive either a critics or feedback or comments...^-^ Please do give it a read till chapter 3 or above to get the clear picture.
