‘Death is the Only Ending for the Villainess’ is a popular ongoing manhwa that was first published in 2020. This manhwa series is mostly famous for its Isekai and romance genre.
Just like any other Isekai, like ‘Misfit of the Demon King Academy’ and ‘Overlord,’ it is also known for its unique storyline. However, another odd thing that is good in this case is it is blended with the theme of romance, ultimately making it more likable for most of the readers.
The storyline centers around the female character, Penelope Eckart, and her reincarnation in another world. Penelope, as every Isekai protagonist, dies and rebirths as another person. This time, she is taking the role of the adopted daughter of Duke Eckart.
Being born into a royal family is something that she expected to be beneficial for her. However, her character in this scenario will play the Villainess of the story with a reverse harem. Whether she likes it or not, the situation is inevitable for her, and she has to carry out accordingly.
Another problem is that Penelope has entered the game at its hardest difficulty, and it does not matter what she does because she always ends up dead at every end. There is one condition for her salvation, which is she has to choose one of the male protagonists whom she must marry to reach a happy ending and survive the game.
There is also a time limit for her that she must complete the task before the real daughter of the Duke appears in the story. Completing this certain challenge is no easy task for her as more and more difficulties arise for her at every turn.
For example, the two brothers, who are also the male leads, pick a fight with every little silly thing she does. She is fed with the situation, but she finds no other choice; otherwise, she will die unjustly.
The interesting part is that a magician and a loyal slave knight are in love with her, but every time she tries to get closer to them, the likeness meters of the male leads also increase more.
Recap and Review of Death Is The Only Ending For The Villainess Chapter 126
Penelope has been concerned about Eckles’s welfare, and when he finally returns, she feels relieved for a certain moment. Anxious Penelope gives him a lecture that he is unable to lift a sword in the empire while she is responsible for this. But Penelope is glad that he is unharmed.
Importantly, Eckles informed that no supervisor was watching the slaves and their movements. They only came to collect whatever was harvested. Penelope orders him to call immediately if the same situation ever takes place through Cabman. Even though he intended to return as soon as possible after killing the monster, the cabman had left already.
Hearing this, Penelope decides to fire this cabman for his ignorance and hire a new one. Meanwhile, Eckles is permitted to do whatever he wants, but in case Derrick finds out about this special arrangement, she will have to face consequences.
Eckles pleads with her to give him a task so he can be useful to her. In reply, she says if he has not been useful, he would be sent back to the auction house.
Penelope has invested more than a million gold coins to purchase him, and she intends to use him properly. So, he must do whatever he is asked and expected to do; otherwise, it would be game over for both of them.
Penelope is not only showing her concern for her but also clears out that Eckles, despite being a slave, is very important to her. Maybe she is doing all this to gain a high amount of favor from him because as we see in the chapter, Eckles’s ‘favor meter’ rises as soon as Penelope gets close to him.
All the hard work she is putting in seems solely for her benefit, but this could be wrong. Although she shows an immense love for a peasant like him, and that is quite suspicious even for someone so generous.
Penelope has to fulfill her agenda while keeping a low profile because she has to hide it from the male leads. If they ever come to know about her affairs, she will meet her demise, and the game will repeat all over again. Eckles is showing training outside. He must achieve a great feat in swordsmanship.
He was even scolded in the class for not paying much attention to whatever was being taught. While training, he also realizes his feelings for Penelope even though he wants to get rid of her.
Whenever he meets her, his determination vanishes, and he is struck by these unknown emotions. As he was to give a massive hit while being engaged in thoughts, Penelope suddenly appeared, and the chapter ended there.

After being in a perilous situation, Eckles returns his mistress, who was wearing thin of patience out of her concern. But Eckles’s presence assures his safety, but it is not enough for Penelope to be calm. Penelope firmly tells him if ever any danger arises, he must directly reach her through all means.
She even goes so far as to give special permissions and kick out a cabman. Although, she is certainly doing it to get a favor from him. Eckles, however, is moved by her concern and aims to pledge his loyalty.
In the next chapter of ‘Death Is The Only Ending For The Villainess, ‘ we will see why Penelope has come to Eckles during his training. She must indeed keep him safe from the dangers, but her concerns for him are exaggerated.
Maybe she wants to assign him a task, or she wants to have another chat with him regarding some important matter. The motive is unclear until the next chapter is released. Has he only come to observe his well-being? Or does she have another problem she wants to deal with?
