I possessed the male lead’s nanny. Eventually I will die at his hands.... more>>

I raised him with care and tried to avoid my own death, but this time, his father would kill me.

In times like this, the answer was to run away without looking back.

But why are they blocking my escape route?

*****

“I want to live with Renee for a long, long time.”

“Edwin wants this, so as a father, I have to listen to him.”

Since when did you guys get along so well?

At my bewildered gaze, he walked slowly.

“I’ve been thinking of a way to live together for a long time… There is one thing that fits perfectly.”

My body became stiff as his hand subtly stroked my face.

He seemed satisfied with my terrified face and gave me a deep smile.

“That’s right. If you want something, you should say it in words. Instead of protesting like this.”

If I hang on now, it won’t be too late.

With a firm resolve, I closed my eyes tightly and shouted.

“Pl-please save me!”

“Yes. Let’s get married.”

Both he and I looked puzzled at the words with completely different atmospheres that came out at the same time. <<less

‘A cross-dressing duke in a BL novel who pretends to be an obsessive maniac.’... more>>

That was a perfect sentence to describe her.

* * *

Levin de Bervein was the lord of a prestigious duchy and a renowned swordmaster with outstanding looks. While seemingly perfect, he harbored a secret: he was actually a woman!

After falling into water unexpectedly, she met the eccentric princess.

“Sister, please become a fake obsessive maniac!”

Since they were inside this tragic BL novel, the princess wanted her to seduce the bottom male lead instead of the original story's obsessive maniac to prevent the world's destruction.

She followed the plan and seduced him, acting like an obsessive maniac.

However…

"Act like you love me. If you don't, I might just kill the person you love."

The bottom male lead, whom she manipulated and discarded, returned as the Emperor of a new empire.

"What do I need to do to have you? War? Massacre?"

The original 'Obsessive Maniac 1', the enemy empire's emperor, was truly insane.

"With just one kiss from you, I can dedicate everything I have. This heart, this empire."

The childhood friend whom she thought was innocent turned out to be the real 'Obsessive Maniac 2' from the original story.

For some reason, the obsessive maniacs from the story all come after her. <<less

“I’ll escape. From you, even if I have to die.”... more>>

I can’t remember the face of the man who made me unable to die.

I woke up, forgetting his name and voice, only knowing that I had fled from him.

“Whatever it is, I… want to help.”

A man who approaches and shows kindness to someone like me.

I saw hope while being with this captivating man.

I believed I could start a new life with this gentle man.

But…

“You’re still pretending to be innocent, I see.”

A madman who knows all the secrets yet demands trust, saying he’ll help me.

“Keep struggling. You’ll never escape me anyway.”

That man who was already lurking around.

He, who is both my love and my hatred, slowly tightens his grip on my neck.

I made a final bet with the one who whispered, placing his hand on my shoulder.

If I win…

This time, please kill me.

Grant me eternal rest. <<less

“So, Your highness, shall we make a bet? Whether or not you will remember my maid’s name after a month.”... more>>

“That’s not bad. It may be difficult to make eye contact with the maid, but her name is easy to remember.”

Liana Siodo was the maid who knew the subject too well.

To the point where she could understand why the lady she served would make such a bet with the Imperial Prince she had a crush on.

For a simple maid like her to take the Prince dear in her heart was ridiculous.

Therefore, she wanted to put an end to her unrequited love.

“His Highness, Imperial Prince Illyd, has awakened Manish. I have come to see Miss Liana Aradna, the only one who can calm him, per the priest’s instructions.”

If it had not been for her, they would all have been dead.

* * * *

“…Liana.”

Illyd pressed his face against Liana’s soft, slender neck.

“What took you so long?”

Like a wild beast trying to convince her it would not hurt her. Or like a young beast acting cute to seem good.

“I… almost killed everyone.”

Illyd reached for the hem of Liana’s robe with trembling hands.

“Don’t ever leave me again.”

He wanted to look good.

Only to the one who was like God to him, the person who held his leash.

But contrary to his expectations, Liana’s eyes were full of terror. <<less

During the springtime of the year I turned nine years old, a father I didn’t even know existed suddenly showed up.... more>>

“Why are you here, Duke? It was comfortable when we didn’t see each other.”

“You’ve been comfortable all this time, so isn’t it time for you to be uncomfortable, Your Highness?”

It turned out, my mother was actually the daughter of a tyrant. And my father was the Duke who overthrew that tyrant.

“O, great and busy Duke of Chelsiers. Did you look for me just to make me feel uncomfortable?”

“Is it so strange for a husband to look for his wife?”

“Do we still have that relationship? Ah, I forgot. Well then, let’s get divorced.”

… could anyone tell me what was going on with these two??

***

“I wish I was there to hug you when you were younger.”

It was a low whisper filled with a mixture of soft, warm and sad feelings.

I hesitated a little before I confessed.

“I often made Mom upset before. If I met you earlier, you might’ve hated me.”

Dad burst into laughter at my words. Even though… I meant what I said.

After a long laugh, he looked at me with a hint of a sorrowful smile on his lips.

“If we had met earlier, you would’ve called me Dad more. That’s enough for me.” <<less

I was possessed by Avery Grand, the count’s daughter, in a thriller novel where a series of mu*ders take place.... more>>

I don’t even remember the novel, but forget that. I will enjoy this peace and abundance!

That’s what I decided... but...

Was I the first victim of the serial killings?

And to make it worse, I became a ghost while in a coma?

With things like this, time to change plans! I’m going to solve this serial mu*der case myself!

So, I head to find the male lead of the novel, Karl Graham, who can see ghosts...

"Duke."

"...."

"Excuse me."

"...."

"Hey."

This cold-hearted man is really treating her like a 'ghost'!

This level of ignoring me is on another level.

Ignore me all you want. I won’t leave your side!

* * *

After sticking by his side relentlessly for months,

I managed to get a clue about the culprit of the serial mu*ders and even identified the next victim.

But then...

"Duke, by any chance...."

"...."

"Do you like me?"

"Yes."

This was something I never saw coming. <<less

Belladonna, the Magpie Duchess.... more>>

Having sacrificed everything to repay the Duke's favor for saving her, she was no longer as kind as before after her return.
ㅡㅡㅡ
She wanted recognition in everything related to the Duke, desiring to be embraced as part of his family. With one life to give, she had done her best for the Duke's house and had died doing so. So, she did everything she could.

"Good."
What needed to be unraveled would be unraveled, and what needed to be kept would be kept. Following the Duke's last wishes, she would protect the Duke's estate until Kaelan came of age.

And in three years, she would leave this place without any regrets.

So, my dear children.
For you, this should be good news.
You will no longer have the attention that you have always rejected.

ㅡㅡㅡ

"...Why aren't you scolding me?"
I smiled gently at the wicked child who asked me with a trembling voice.

"I already told you. Reina."
"..."
"I don't plan on scolding you."
"Why?"

I don't want to do anything that would relieve your burden, and I don't want to help you anymore.

"Just because."

I no longer want to help you.

ㅡㅡㅡ

"I want to be happy."
"Is that all?"
"I'm not sure. What makes people happy?"
"Family, delicious food, loved ones, and... things you want to have? You can be happy even with small things."
"What do you want then?"
"I... well. I just... want a pretty hairpin."

The child, momentarily distracted by a bright smile that didn't match the current situation, suddenly spoke with determination in her voice.

"A hairpin. I'll give you one."

And the long-forgotten connection from the distant past slowly approached like flowing water. <<less

“Marry that despicable sorcerer? I’d rather defeat the Demon King!”... more>>

“You’re overreacting, you fool.”

…And that statement actually came true.

On the day she received her assignment as the first woman in the Special Forces Central Command, an absurd twist of fate paired her with Regan Clanford, someone she had an unfortunate history with back in the academy.

As if that wasn’t enough, a divine apparition suddenly appeared, making unbelievable claims!

“The child both of you will have is the hero who will save the world!”

What? I’m not a hero, and I’m supposed to be the ‘mom’ of the hero? And to make matters worse, Regan is the dad?

“I’d rather die than be with him! Instead of marrying that guy, I’ll save the world myself!”

* * *
[SceneLightingMaster: Why not lock them in a room so they can’t leave until after they did it?]

[WritingBoss: In the temple… XX. This censorship is killing me… (*Blocked due to explicit content)]

“Hey, You say you are gods! Why is everyone so corrupt!?”

The Three Gods were determined to unite the two, by any means necessary.

[HighPerformanceSuctionCup: The mission location is an island? Let’s just sink the ship right now.]

[SuckerFortent**les: Island means the sea, and the sea means… tent**les…!]

“Hey, Regan. Do you know how to swim? I’m going first!”

Splash!

[CorruptedPowerWarrior: LOL, first time seeing someone swim for two hours because there’s no boat. LOL]

In a life-and-death struggle to break free from their fates, where will this insane confrontation lead the two?

And…

“I will never accept any other man for you other than me.”

No, didn’t you say you would rather die than marry me? What’s gotten into you all of a sudden! <<less

[Do you want to change your hero’s class from Knight to Wizard?]
……OK, YES.... more>>

Click!

With that one choice, Taeri became the princess in the RPG game she was playing.

The goal is only to return! I’ll hand everything over to the original protagonist and go back to reality.

“I’ll hand it over. The land, the throne. So, will you come with me… to slay the dragon?”

I’m going to help my protagonist, Claude, who’s as solid as a bowl of soup, get to the ending!

But… for some reason, all the party members are strange.

“Don’t think of causing trouble for no reason. The inspector will come unexpectedly.”

Claude, the gruff but strangely affectionate knight,

“You’re the one who should be meddling, not me. She’s my friend! She’s our princess, not yours!”

The healer who keeps the protagonist in check,

“If you really want to die, I’ll kill you myself, so don’t let others lay a hand on your body.”

And the elven archer showing strange possessiveness.

It’s a cacophony of unharmonious party members who are supposed to be helping each other…….

“I tore up that contract anyway, which means I don’t have to honor it anymore because it doesn’t exist.

So, either stay here and be a king, or if you don’t like that and want to go somewhere else, take me with you or do whatever you want.”

Even the protagonist, who had been a good boy, had gone off the rails.

Can I really go back? <<less

In a small rural village, there lived a strong and hardworking woman named Lotea, who worked as a porter. Little did she know that her grandmother was a duchess in the imperial court.... more>>

“Your features may resemble Patrick, but your rustic charm is just like your mother’s, isn’t it?”

“Father mentioned that I take after my grandmother’s side…”

Although the Duchess was not pleased to have a commoner as her granddaughter, she made Lotea a proposition. If she makes a successful debut in high society and brings home an excellent suitor, she will inherit ten million gold!

Coincidentally, three of the most sought-after suitors in high society have Lotea in their sights…

“Well, it’s good that we get along. But we should think about what kind of relationship would be best.”

Clovis, the mischievous young man turned war hero, Lieutenant Aaron Werner.

“Shall I take you on a date?”

The handsome yet cold and distant man, Marquis Claude Diante.

“Lotea’s eyes sparkle like stars in the night sky.”

The most prominent member of high society, Count Mikhail Arman.

Suddenly attracting the attention of three men and becoming the center of high society gossip, Lotea finds herself on a battlefield far tougher than carrying baggage!

Caught in the mounting pressures and threats of high society, can Lotea survive and perhaps even find love?! <<less

Renna, who lost her life, was reincarnated into a novel she used to read in her previous life.... more>>

Thankful for getting another chance, she lived her life peacefully until one day, the Male lead appeared in front of her out of nowhere and made a request.

"....I need you to make me a potion that can make my desire disappear."

"What....kind of desire?"

"....sexual.....desire.....".

The problem here.....is that the man asking for the potion to be made is Renna's ex-husband who lost his life on the same day as she did.

Her stoical monk of an ex-husband. Her ex-husband, who throughout their marriage, was the literal meaning of the word ice.

He had possessed the famous Male Lead and appeared in front of her! <<less

Ahelissa Seraf, a traitor who became a helper of the tyrant.... more>>

“Your parents abandoned you. So forget about it and live.”

She grew up as an orphan in the Pelanders, the assassination guild of the Kingdom of Lobel. However, Ahelissa, who had grown into an adult, ignored their warning. She left her home as an independent woman to search for her parents who had abandoned her. Instead, she finds an injured man in an alley near her house and helps, and unable to turn her gaze from the pitiful lad, she offers a helping hand.

The man was none other than the most powerful in the Kingdom of Lobel. The king.

“There’s something I want to check.” The man caressed her skin with his calloused hands and whispered, “I wish you could come with me to my palace. That’s my suggestion.” He was acting strange, spouting dangerous suggestions.

It was even stranger that Ahelissa couldn’t find herself rejecting his proposal. <<less

The daughter who was abandoned by a mistress. That was what Juno was known as. When she had lost everything, Peter Sergien, a great alchemist, makes an offer in the dollhouse.... more>>

“I will change everyone’s opinion of you as a woman who was kicked out and sold by the family mistress. You shall be the object of envy.”

As time passes, the rumors surrounding Juno become more and more outrageous. A new owner has appeared in the dollhouse.

“I’m Juno Sergien, the alchemist.”

A person who no longer falters or bows down to someone. Juno’s reputation starts to be seen in a new light. <<less
