Driven by circumstances and with no other choice, Qiu Cheng could only find himself a sponsor.... more>>

He was clever from a young age, resilient, and extremely perceptive.

In the end, he found a man that others wouldn’t even dare to consider.

Ever since Qiu Cheng met Mu Xingtian, his debts were paid off, he had the money to treat his relatives’ illnesses, and the troublesome harassers around him disappeared.

He even started filming dramas and participating in variety shows, gaining access to various resources, and those resources only got better and better.

Onlookers secretly gritted their teeth, feeling that Qiu Cheng definitely wouldn’t have it good for long; once that man got tired of him, he would be cast back to his original state.

Little did they know, what Qiu Cheng and that man were playing at was genuine sincerity.

Jeong Yiwon was living his life running a guesthouse at Hae-un-dang, an old traditional house overlooking the sea.... more>>

Just as he was on the verge of selling it off for less than its worth, with his father’s debt tied to Hae-un-dang, he meets a man named Cha Seokju who comes to the house.

“Are you alone?”

“…Excuse me?”

“This guesthouse, I mean. I asked if you’re running the business by yourself.”

At first, he thought it was just a passing encounter,

“It’s hot. Got anything to drink?”

“There’s water.”

“I thought this was a guesthouse. You don’t sell coffee?”

“I don’t.”

“Give me water, then.”

And next, he thought the man would be a guest who would stay for a short while and leave. Until the man made a tempting offer.

“Give me a room.”

“……”

“Why the silence? Did you go out of business in the last few seconds?”

“…No.”

“Then take a customer.”

Yiwon, who was desperate for every penny, starts to show interest in the man’s offer.

“How many days will you be staying?”

“Then let’s just say about a month.”

“Huh?”

“You don’t know what a month is? 30 days.”

However, Sjoerd, known for his cruel methods but incomparable abilities, ended up harming countless people during a sudden rampage in a battle against monsters. Consequently, he met his death at the hands of Prince Reuschers, the Crown Prince's rival and the strongest Guide.

"There will never be anyone as terrible as you in this world."

Sjoerd wakes up five years in the past.

Doubting this unbelievable reality, Sjoerd seeks a different life to prevent his rampage. He approached Reuschers, who had yet to awaken his power, and tried to talk to him, but then.

Kaleido, a talented but unpopular boy band, shot to fame by chance because of a video shot at the airport. In the video, Pei Tingsong, the youngest and most gong member of the whole group, pinned Fang Juexia Gege against a wall as he gently patted his face with a ticket.

They had clearly never gotten along since their debut, yet they were now forced to embark on an endless path of selling their fake ship together.

Pei Tingsong was famous for being ‘real’ in the circle, and he had offended many people from his lyrics alone because they were overly ‘real’. But he stressed again and again that he and Fang Juexia were only providing fan service.

CP fan: [Someone who has never been fake is selling a fake ship.] May the philosophy students please explain the paradox to this young student Pei here.

"Congratulations on your marriage, Kaindel."... more>>

Isaac, who had been Kaindel’s lover—the hero who saved the world from the Great Calamity—learned one day that Kaindel was engaged to a princess.

Exhausted by their already strained relationship, Isaac eventually decided to leave Kaindel, who had betrayed him.

However, Kaindel wouldn’t let him go.

In the end, Isaac fled, unable to endure Kaindel's refusal to give up either the marriage to the princess or his relationship with Isaac.

Not long after, rumors began to spread throughout the kingdom: the hero had gone mad.

***

[From Isaac Winter, who once loved you]

"......."

Kaindel read and reread the last line of the letter, but the words didn’t change.

'Once loved.'

Isaac really wrote his feelings in past tense.

"Ah."

He never thought Isaac would leave him.

No, he never believed he could be abandoned.

Even if they parted ways, he was sure it would be on his terms.

Because Isaac loved him.

Because being loved by Isaac was, for Kaindel, something so natural.

"Why......."

But it had all been an illusion.

"Why didn’t I see it?"

Now, the one left behind like a forgotten relic was Kaindel, him.

The one clinging to the past, too blind to see the present, was none other than himself.

He only realized it now, after he left him.

Suddenly, Isaac’s voice, long buried in his memory, resurfaced.

Isaac’s smiling face filled his vision, his silver eyes, like clear glass marbles, gleaming with a thousand bright stars, painfully vivid.

The sound of Isaac’s innocent laughter echoed in his mind. "I love you," Isaac had once whispered.

When Kaindel's mind wondered around, did Isaac’s laughter disappeared?

No matter how much he tried to remember, the moment escaped him.

He searched his memory in vain.

As Kaindel traced the days gone by, thick tears began to fall.

Like melting ice dripping onto the budding new leaves of spring, his tears left indelible marks on Isaac's letter.

"Where is he?"

"......."

"Find him."

"Immediately."

Kaindel finally crumbled.

In the place where his arrogance shattered, a deep regret settled in.

It was a perfect despair. <<less

7 years of unrequited love and another 7 years of relationship.... more>>

Kyeoul believed that the love completed over a long time with Ithae would continue forever and beyond.

But.

“Looks like he’s out with that person again today.”

There was a reason why Ithae was diagnosed with fatigue syndrome.

Meetings with another person, continuing since last spring.

Ithae no longer smiled when looking at Kyeoul, and Kyeoul simply resigned himself to looking at such an Ithae.

“If it’s not fate, we need to break up.”

For both Ithae’s sake and his own. Holding onto each other was wrong.

Rather, we needed to let go and at least preserve our memories.

That brilliant youth once upon a time.

So that the past, which burned with a bright fire, would no longer become pitiful.

Kwon Ithae (32).

Lived a monotonous life. Until meeting Kyeoul. After meeting Kyeoul, his monotonous world began to move. With trembling excitement and beauty. This thrilling feeling that love gives cannot last forever.

Choi Kyeoul (32).

Even 7 years of relationship turned out to be useless. Constant communication and meetings with a person who is not me. Cold attitude, different from before. There were no more reasons to desperately cling to this relationship. I just needed to let go, but somehow it turned out to be so difficult. With age, he absolutely couldn’t stand fatigue.

When to read: When you want to see the outcome of love irretrievably destroyed by fatigue.

“Human…”

“Yes, I’m human… and so are you, Mr. Lee Hyunmook.”

However, Lee Hyunmuk has been half-driven mad by the influence of the Abyss. Yohan struggles to survive alongside him, tending to wounds and foraging for food, during the rare moments when Hyunmook regains his sanity.

“Every few decades, a certain phenomenon occurs here. And I call it a ‘Flood.’”

“A Flood?”

“The closer the Flood gets, the worse the contamination and madness become… just like how I was moments ago.”

But when an unexpected Flood strikes, Hyunmook loses his mind completely…

“You’re a sheep, so why don’t you cry?”

“I-I’m not a sheep, I’m Yang Yohan…”

“My little lamb-lamb.”

A brutal environment, a festering wound on one leg, terrifying monsters howling as they attack,

and now the erratic behavior of a deranged Hyunmook…

Thus begins Yohan’s tear-filled escape from another world! <<less

In a terrifying horror game, players stared at the missions before them with bloodshot eyes, barely clinging to life as they fled from hordes of mu*derous NPCs. But when Chen Li entered the game, he stood silently, staring at the prompt in front of him for a long time.... more>>

[Welcome to the Horror Game. Do you accept the task of playing an NPC?]

[Options: Accept / Absolutely Accept]

Chen Li: ...Fine.

While Chen Li was diligently carrying out his tasks, thinking he was playing a fierce NPC...

Player A: ...Why is this NPC howling like that?

Player B (excited): Today’s the day players finally fight back and kill an NPC for revenge!

Player C (panicked): W-Wait… Don’t you know that NPC is under the protection of that top player? H-He’s coming this way!!

Player B (scoffing): No way a top-tier player would ever team up with an NPC—especially such a weak one—

Before the words were even finished, footsteps echoed from the end of the dark corridor. The overwhelming pressure made all the players tremble.

Meanwhile, completely unaware, Chen Li continued roleplaying his NPC duties: “I declare—you are all surrounded!”

The three players didn’t even dare to breathe.

The top player slowly approached and stopped right in front of them.

Chen Li, puzzled, swung the fake bloody limb in his hand: "Awwooo? You’re not scared?"

He turned to the boss and snarled, baring his teeth in what he thought was a menacing way: "You’re scared, right?!"

The boss smiled gently: "Terrified. You’re too fierce."

Then he looked at the trembling players with a blank expression.

The poor bystanders immediately wet themselves from sheer terror.

. . . . .

In the Horror Game's forums, a terrifying rumor circulates: There’s an NPC so fearsome, even the Soul-Terror Puppets pale in comparison. Its twisted appearance puts the mu*der Swan to shame. No player dares to challenge any dungeon that NPC has ever appeared in.

Somewhere, in a dark room bathed in moonlight—

Chen Li: "Awooo...?"

The boss patted his head: "Yes, just like that. Very scary."

After transmigrating, I found myself as Go Yeonwoo, a side villain who mu*dered the protagonist, Woo Jiyoo, only to be brutally killed by a group of S-Class Espers.... more>>

To make matters worse, the moment I transmigrated was right after killing Woo Jiyoo.

But unlike the original story, Go Yeonwoo awakens as an S-Class Guide.

The Espers, upon sensing Go Yeonwoo’s guiding energy, start acting differently from the original.

“This bastard, let’s take him and use him as our personal sl*t. Just killing him would be too easy a punishment.”

“We’ll make him regret killing Woo Jiyoo. I’ll have him begging for death by the end.”

The S-Class Espers fake Go Yeonwoo’s death and imprison him in a secret place, forcing him to guide them.

However, with his already twisted tastes, Go Yeonwoo finds the Espers’ obsessive behavior suffocatingly delightful.

He even pretends to resist, encouraging them to treat him even more recklessly.

But then…

“Hey, are you seriously stopping after eating just this much? Are you planning to starve yourself to death?”

“Get lost, Kang Taewon. Because of you, my sl*t can’t eat properly. I’ll feed him myself. Open wide, Yeonwoo.”

“Yeonwoo, is there something you want to say to me? You were jealous enough to kill Jiyoo over it, weren’t you? If you tell me now, I’ll listen. Go ahead.”

“You’re letting me hold you up? Does that mean you’re giving me permission now?” <<less

He only knew that this beer belly kept getting bigger!

It’s impossible to get pregnant, pretending to be a big-bellied pregnant woman is even more impossible!

After eight years in the other world, what greeted S-class hunter Minjun was the side effects of dimensional travel and an incomprehensible notification. However, he only pays attention to it for a moment before deciding to hide his identity and live a lazy retirement life.

“Have you ever heard anyone say that you look like hunter Minjun, who went missing eight years ago?”

"Don't die.

"From now on, I'll call you Haero."

Nine years have passed since their escape from the island together. Their unique relationship, once that of captor and spoils, transforms - from 'Number 8' to Haero, from spoils to little brother. However, hidden beneath the surface lies a secret...

"Don't worry. It's not like it's the first time we've dealt with rumors, right?"

Yoon Muhwa keeps Haero sheltered under his wing, content to perpetuate this comfortable status quo. But...

Waking up at noon, he poured himself a glass of water and stood behind his game-addicted stepson, watching him play. Ten seconds later, Zhong Lu gave a flat assessment. “Noob.”

To discipline his spoiled son, Huo Zhehan entered a contractual marriage with an educational psychologist.

After a full day of meetings, he turned on the camera to check how the educator was disciplining his son.
