Former Sophie is so cruel. Could you do an alternate version of this in the future?

What to say..
when people treat you badly, you will sooner or later treat them the same (or worse). Elisabeth (Sophie) totally has the upper hand so there is no way she wouldn’t reconsider her firstly submissive behavior.
As for the alternate version, I don’t plan to do such thing at the moment.

So I have a theory about Sophie that I came up with after rereading this series. Was her mind and behavior altered by Elizabeth’s own mind?
Earlier Sophie seemed rather kind and remarked that she wouldn’t want to steal Elizabeth’s body and life because Elizabeth had always been nice to her. However, she did say that in addition to receiving one of Elizabeth’s memories that she was starting to acquire Elizabeth’s taste in music too. This lead me to believe that she was changing to become more like Elizabeth mentally.
After her fight with Elizabeth, she became more cruel and resentful, which is when she decided to steal her new great life. I’m thinking it was the Elizabeth influence on her mind that caused this. At the end of the series Elizabeth steals the body of her younger sister in a similarly cruel way, meaning her mind was capable of those kinds of thoughts.
So now I wonder if perhaps this was inevitable. Even if Elizabeth and Sophie didn’t fight, would Sophie have become too much like Elizabeth mentally to the point where she felt like she deserved Elizabeth’s body anyway? And will the mental changes continue so that the she becomes just as bored as the original Elizabeth did, prompting her to switch bodies with a maid herself?
I may have gotten carried away here lol but Akikk’s captions are great for stuff like this.

Thank you for your interesting comment Cake-kun. I always find it very encouraging when people really think about my stories and try to read between the lines. You are luckily not the first person who is able to run the scenario in their head. Thinking of all the connections and hidden motives.
I will start with the “second body swap with maid” question. No, I don’t think it is very likely. You see, that irrational need of degrading self to socially weaker state is something that is desired by people who didn’t see anything different in their lives. They are bored of luxury and they seek to experience something else. That implies that since Elisabeth (Sophie) already experienced a life of a maid and understands its disadvantages. She has no desire to be maid once again simply because she had been one before. There is no memory loss present so she will remember her previous life till her death. The only possibility would be swapping with someone new. For example her younger sister (Elisabeth). Quite an interesting development that would be right?
As for your other question, you have to understand that these were my first captions ever. I wanted to write a story about young rich and beautiful girl that wants to explore a bit. The situation get out of her control but there is still a way back. Only her impulsiveness (argument with her Elisabeth (Sophie) ) traps her in that body. Her desperation forces her to steal her little sister’s body in the end. Leaving the reader with question of how monstrous such act was and if other people (even them) would do the same.
All the changes in the characters of “A need of change” are happening because of the development in the story. Note that Sophie (Elisabeth) never accepted her new place as a maid.
Please, share all other insights and ideas in the comment sections. Looks especially on the ongoing captions. I usually give little hints of future development way before they happen.
