My younger brother died.... more>>

And it happened inside the prestigious private school that I struggled so hard to get him into.

As I was crying in despair in front of his grave,

A strange man who claimed to be the student council president appeared and made an unbelievable offer.

"Would you like to go back one year if you could?"

He seemed like a swindler, but faced with sudden despair, I had no other choice.

I grasped at this rotten lifeline and hastily made a deal with him.

And surprisingly, I really did go back one year in time.

Without wasting time, I immediately transferred to that problematic private school. To protect my younger brother who was still alive.

But this school, the atmosphere is not right.

Ghosts and spirits appear all over the school, and 'ghost stories' occur.

Somehow, my brother seems to be connected to these strange phenomena.

Will I, Melody Hastings, be able to safely solve the ghost story, protect my younger brother, and get out of this school? <<less

I was selected as a beta tester and entered a virtual reality dating simulation!... more>>

But the game description said it had multiple routes,

so why am I the fiancée of the duke?

Moreover, the rules are written in the style of Neapolitan legends.

The servants’ faces are black and empty,

and to make things worse, the chef tells me to eat hair, calling it spaghetti!

“Ugh, why are there so many bugs in this game?”

I’m diligently playing this buggy game full of issues,

and it turns out the Duke, the male lead, even has a split personality.

Or rather, he’s the very target I’m supposed to win over…

“I hate that you love that devil more than me. Seriously.”

By day, he’s pure and innocent.

“Tonight, we’ll share a bed. You’re mine, Nadia Windsor.”

But at night, with sexy eyes, he barges into my bedroom…?

He’s very handsome, which is nice,

Is this game really made properly?

“Rabiana Selden. I paid a fair price to have you.”... more>>

Her groom was changed—on the day of the wedding, no less.

A cold, arrogant voice rang in Rabiana’s ears.

After losing her family and her sight in an accident as a child, she had been living under the care of others.

But she never wanted to be sold off like this, forced into marriage.

“Bear my child. Once you do, I’ll send you wherever you wish.”

Unilateral words spoken without the slightest care.

Duke Alberto Vel Roen was that kind of man.

“Why me, of all people?”

“Because you’re a woman I don’t need to concern myself with.”

“…Please, keep your promise to let me go.”

Rabiana made up her mind.

Once she gave birth to his child, once he abandoned her—

she would end this wretched life herself.

***

Alberto had thought little of marrying Rabiana.

He didn’t even recognize the emotions stirring within himself.

He assumed a woman with nothing to her name would quietly serve his purpose.

“Don’t come. Go back, Your Grace.”

“You… intend to leave me?”

Only now, when he could no longer stop her,

did he realize what a fool he had been.

Rabiana, who had always been within reach,

was now coldly trying to go somewhere he could never find her.

“Rabiana!”

His desperate cry shook the forest. <<less

When I opened my eyes, I was inside a novel.... more>>

[The Birth of a Hero].

[The Birth of a Hero] was a novel focused on the adventures of the main character, Choi Han, a high school boy who was transported to a different dimension from Earth, along with the birth of the numerous heroes of the continent.

I became a part of that novel as the tr*sh of the Count’s family, the family that oversaw the territory where the first village that Choi Han visits is located.

The problem is that Choi Han becomes twisted after that village, and everyone in it, is destroyed by assassins.

The bigger problem is the fact that this s*upid tr*sh who I’ve become doesn’t know about what happened in the village and messes with Choi Han, only to get beaten to a pulp.

“…This is going to be a headache.”

I feel like something serious has happened to me.

But it was worth trying to make this my new life. <<less

She came back from the unknown gate wearing only a black dress with a black parasol. A first-generation hunter, Cha Eunha, went missing 30 years ago.... more>>

In the early 2000s, they had been locked within a mysterious gate.

For someone to escape, one must stay behind…

“It’s because you have more reasons to stay alive for than me.”

Eunha sacrificed herself for her colleague Yijun, killed monsters to survive and met a man who found her when there were no monsters left to kill.

“You’re the boss.”

Shin Siwoo, the first S-Class hunter that she’s ever heard of.

When Eunha had managed to get out of the strange gate,

“Thirty years…have passed?”

The world had changed so much.

Besides, Baek Yijun, an old colleague that she had met after a long time,

“You know what. I hate the fact that people like you are hunters.”

—was not the person Eunha had remembered. <<less

Driel Stein, the Lord of Arhon.... more>>

The unfortunate fact that he did not love his wife, Lune Hellid, was well-known to most.

“To all the gods I swear; I will never love someone like you. Rather than spending the rest of my life with you, I would rather die on the battlefield.”

Lune, having heard insults from her husband on the day of their wedding, became the world’s most miserable wife, but she did not resent Driel.

Instead, she understood Driel.

“I’ve begged you countless times to not choose me as your husband. Now that you’ve ruined me, how do you feel?”

It was because Lune Hellid had ruined Driel Stein’s life.

*

After three years, the husband who left for the battlefield like he was committing su*cide has returned.

To seek forgiveness for her mistakes, Lune decided to get a divorce immediately.

But her husband was acting strangely.

“I’m not going to divorce you even if I die. So you should also give up.”

Not only did he refuse the divorce, he even extended a helping hand to Lune.

“Lune. The Driel that whined that you ruined his life was reborn on the battlefield.”

What exactly happened to Driel at the northern battlefield?

“Lady Hellid, there are reanimated corpses attacking the village!”

Furthermore, as soon as the war in the north ended, a strange incident occurred in the territory.

Will they be able to overcome the crisis?

Will they be able to live in the present without dwelling on the regrets of the past? <<less

After ten years, they received a prophecy.... more>>

Everyone started moving to find the child of light.

It was funny to see them searching without even knowing who it was.

Selvia, sitting precariously on top of a tall building, laughed softly as she watched them.

“They’ll be barging into my house soon.”

Although it was still supposed to be daylight, darkness began to settle in the sky.

Selvia murmured as she watched the sky gradually lose its light.

“Mother, it seems everyone is looking for me.”

She smiled faintly as she looked at the necklace in her hand.

Darkness began to spread more densely around her body. <<less

One of the wealthiest people in the Empire, the Duke of Rosen has only one blemish.... more>>

The fact that Aristina, the worst villain in the Empire, is the only daughter of the Duke!

In the end, she is imprisoned in her home in an attempt to poison the prince’s fiancée, and the moment she is mu*dered by an unknown criminal, ‘I’ took hold of her body.

Fortunately, her name was cleared, but more importantly…

‘Who was the killer of Aristina?’

Thanks to her personality that is not strange even if she is stoned along the way; everyone who is crushed by her is suspected of being a preliminary mu*derer.

‘I must never die twice!’ She restored the trust of the sickly Duke, who had been rotting all his life because of his daughter, and went around doing good deeds with impure intentions.

“Aristina! You have to lighten the mood of this prom!” Starting with the 2nd prince, who acts as a large loyal dog without opening the open front.

“You say you’re going to lose your hair and run after the girls? That’s what we need right now.” The crown Prince breaks down his polite and respectful mask only in front of me.

“Who did you go to that day after you left me?” Even the head of the holy church only reveals secrets the more she digs.

Even the most probable suspects turned to me and twisted too far. But the peace is short-lived, and the real killer is finally revealed. <<less

"On the Moonlight Garden-!"... more>>

"White evening primroses are in full bloom -!”

It was a strange succession ceremony in which the strongest member of the royal family succeeds the throne.

After being poisoned, she returned five years into the past, and played the part of a crazy b*tch in order to survive.

Seriously, was surviving by simply looking like the weakest not enough?

The crazy princess, with no power or backing, was about to die, but a suspicious wizard suddenly appeared before her.

“What should I do to get your kiss?”

“A deal. If you help me, I'll kiss you.”

“Good. I have no intention of letting you die in the hands of anyone besides me."

I feel like I entered the tiger's den while trying to escape the wolves…

Is it really okay if I make this deal?

A fiery battle and romance between a woman walking towards life with all her might, and a man who lives for death. <<less

“I know you hate us a lot.”... more>>

She possessed the villain maid Eugenia.

At the moment when she was about to flirt for her own safety, she received a very dangerous request from Joshua, the original male lead who was still young.

“Get us out of here and take us to the Isa Empire. If you do that, all these jewels are yours.”

She tried to pretend not to know, but her conscience as an adult was aching, so she tried to take the twins to their destination… The twins and the Duke of Herace were starting to become obsessed!

“Why are you trying to leave?”

“Now that I have brought you two safely, I have to start a new life now.”

“You stirred us up so much, and now you’re leaving? Were you so irresponsible? What about the kids?”

At that moment, cold gazes around them turned towards Eugenia.

‘No! We’re not like that! It’s all wrong!’

Even the twins held onto her ankles and cried…!

“Sister, where… are you going?”

“Did you forget about the contract? If you’re going to leave, pay the penalty and go.”

They were grabbing the fake contract that I signed out of pity!

“Where did you learn something like that?”

She said he’s like those ugly twins! Why was everyone holding on to her ankles sadly?

The only thing she stirred in their lives was whipped cream. The indignant Eugenia’s great transformation misunderstanding romance! <<less

A former office worker who was relatively competent but ultimately died of overwork.... more>>

In her second life, however, she finds herself far from being competent.

Bianca Soleike, the only non-mage born into the prestigious Soleike family of mages.

Unfortunately, she ended up possessing the body of the very Bianca, infamous for being synonymous with incompetence.

Thanks to her family’s influence, she managed to secure a job at the Magic Tower, but…

There was a massive problem:

Her boss was impossibly difficult to deal with.

The king of all mages, hailed as the greatest mage in history.

The unrivaled genius, Gillian Seaton.

Not only was he famous for his extraordinary abilities, but also for his notorious temper.

One day, he began looking at Bianca, the previously incompetent aide turned mysteriously capable, with suspicion.

“Why has my administrative aide suddenly changed like this?”

It would have been a relief if all he did was doubt her…

“How much do you want to know?”

“Everything.”

“Why?”

“Because you’re my administrative aide. You’re mine.”

His obsession is anything but ordinary.

Even with his shirt buttoned up to the very top, she finds herself at the mercy of the dangerously seductive employer whose allure screams decadence.

Bianca’s heart is barely holding on.

She thought he was just her boss, but it turns out he’s a possessive and dangerously passionate man.

The constellation who took it upon himself to contract her constantly nags at her, whenever he pleases.

"If I asked you to stay on our team, would you consider it?"

"Just say you want me. I'll even be your doormat if that's what you need."

"I hate seeing you laughing and chatting with other team members. Come back to our team."

Euphemia, who escaped from her heartless family and became the caretaker of an old duchess.
When she found out that the servant who had been around her was actually a small duke, Euphemia had already fallen in love with him. ... more>>

The successor of the great duke and the nuisance of a lowly baron.

The old lady coldly pushed her away,

“It was difficult because your son was so clingy.”

Euphemia left without hesitation.
With a secret that even she herself did not know about. <<less
