Because of a friend from my past life, I reluctantly read a male-oriented web novel (a.k.a. harem novel), and then found myself reincarnated inside it as Kang Nahyun.

Special perks for reincarnators? None.

I endured a hardcore life with no money and no connections.

But in the winter before entering high school, I awakened as a Sniper and was given the chance to enroll in the Awakeners’ Academy!

If I can’t be the protagonist, then why not just sneak onto the protagonist’s rosy path and grab some crumbs along the way, right?

So I planned to stick to Na Yuhan, the story’s main character attending the academy, take advantage of the spillover, and then quietly fade away… But something feels off. Each day, I seem to drift farther from the original plan.

Thus begins the turbulent academy life of Kang Nahyun, the so-called sunshine heroine (?).

<How to Ride the Protagonist’s Flower Road> begins now!
