‘The weak exist to be robbed by the strong.’

Akhtan, a desert country where the brutal history of invasion and massacre lives and breathes. Prince Kyle who had been living in suppression under the long reign of terror of Emperor Khalifa, the Sun God, was suddenly forced into a political marriage.

‘What kind of marriage is this? It’s nothing short of kidnapping… Why me…? What sin did that princess commit to deserve this?’

The princess of Calderaia who appeared at the wedding, held in just a week, was the most beautiful person he had ever seen.

Although her eyes, sparkling like jewels, were filled with inexplicable hostility. <<less

She possessed Charlotte Lania, an extra character that was not even mentioned much in the original. ... more>>

She thought the bloody socialite world and politics were only stories from another world. That was until she accidentally met the male lead’s younger brother and saved him.

Theodore Heinst.

The younger brother of the male lead, who was supposed to die at the age of three.

If I didn’t save him, I could be accused of an assassination attempt and accomplice to a crime.

In the end, Charlotte decided to take good care of the child and clear her name.

However…

“Theo wants to live with you!”

The little kid started to refuse to go back home and yet,

“Can you be the Lady of the Heinst House?”

Carlisle (Carcel) Heinst, the male lead, who was supposed to marry the original female lead, proposed to Charlotte a contract marriage.

Goodbye, extra character’s peaceful life. <<less

If you don’t go when a magic school acceptance letter arrives, you’re definitely not from 21st-century Earth.... more>>

So Selli ran away from home.

Breaking her mom’s lifelong wish: that the two of them would stay together forever!

“Headmasterrrrr! Seraphina Lorelhart is attackingggg!”

She had no idea that her mom was actually the legendary holy knight who saved the empire from the Demon King ten years ago—

and then vanished from the world.

And on top of that...

“It’s an honor to meet you, my princess.”

“IKnew she was my daughter from the very first class.”

“Science will confirm whose kid she is in exactly one hour.”

One of the top 3 hottest teachers at Spellmore Academy is… my dad?!

Mom won’t tell her who her dad is.

So Selli has no idea—

and ends up living her best life at magic school while figuring it out! <<less

“Pray, become the Enchanter that represents the family.”... more>>

The goodwill from the start didn’t last long.

At the House that adopted me due to my affinity with elemental spirits, I lived a life detested by even the maids because my powers didn’t come to form. It was a life where I agonized over whether I would be happier in death. That is, until I found another ‘me’.

“I finally found you. Hi, the current me. Won’t you enter into a contract with me? You’re far too special to live like this, you see.”

A miracle appeared in front of me, who was, again, vomiting as well. The person who lived as me in my previous life.

“I’ll make you into this continent’s best Enchanter.” <<less

After leaving the company, I dreamed of YOLO and tried to open a cafe in a secluded place.... more>>

But not a cafe… I’m awakened as a hotel manager?

[Class: Awakened as Hotel Manager (Hidden)!]
[Skill: Housekeeping (C) acquired.]
Besides, all the guests who come to this hotel are hunters.

Hunters come and keep giving me money.

I keep making money on a very leisurely subject,

By the time I get used to being the manager of this strange and beautiful dungeon hotel—

“Welcome, welcome to Yeong Chun Hotel!”

It was the moment when I raised my head with a bright smile.

I recognized who he was and froze.

He was someone who shouldn’t be here.

Han Woohyun.

Even Han Woohyun, the No. 1 ranked player in Korea, came as a guest at our hotel. <<less

Erica received a marriage proposal from her childhood friend, Roderick, who returned from the military and spent a steamy night with her.... more>>

However, the euphoria of her first love was short-lived as a coup occurred that night, and Roderick ended up dead, leaving behind a child in her womb.

One day, while lost in sorrow, she went to assist a certain lady in childbirth...

"...Roderick?"

The man she thought was dead turned out to be the woman's husband!

In the end, she decided to give birth to the child of the man who had betrayed her. With his child in her belly, she ran away. But fate is relentless, and a few years later, she encountered him again, one child at a time.

"Huh, this child looks just like me."

"What the hell are you talking about? This child is not your child!"

Erica's once peaceful life spiraled into chaos from that moment onward.

Roderick, what on earth is going on with you?

He was supposedly dead but now alive, claiming another woman's child as his own, yet still insisting that Erica was the only woman for him. He was clearly frail before, but now was a wanted criminal, known for defeating dozens of mercenaries on his own.

What is the real lie behind Roderick's lies? <<less

I got transmigrated into a healing childcare story.... more>>

Surely, it was supposed to be a peaceful and happy tale, thanks to the princess who grew up receiving abundant attention and affection from the tyrant.

But why am I the only one in a hardcore, dark story?

Of all things, my father is the one who gets dragged out for criticizing the daughter-obsessed tyrant.

“The day my daughter called me ‘Daddy!’ It shall be a national holiday!”

Starting with opposing this absurd holiday designation, he opposed the imperial family’s actions at every turn… until our family was finally destroyed.

Damn it, this country is doomed.

I need to leave the empire as soon as possible!

I tried to run away, but I got caught by the princess, the strongest person in this childcare world.

‘Can I… survive here?’ <<less

One day I realized that I was the future mother-in-law of the regretful female lead.... more>>

There was a bigger problem than the role of harassing the female lead and then being punished by my new son.

‘Our Lilliana is marrying that bastard Jeremyon ……! no way!’

I could never see the sunshine-like female lead marrying my idiot-like son.

“Break up from my son. This should be enough money.”

I’m sure. With this money, The female lead will pay off all of her family’s debt. It’s a new start after saying goodbye to my son!

But for some reason, The female lead doesn’t leave my son, and she keeps coming.

“Next time, I will definitely break up. Thank you so much for your forgiveness!”

“Mother, try this.”

“Of course, mother! I never thought it would be easy! Please educate me thoroughly!”

… Is it okay for you to be like this?

* * *

Lilliana has been very happy lately. This is because she has become closer to Vanessa than she could have imagined until recently.

However, this happiness is short-lived. If it is discovered that she broke up with Jeremyon, she will no longer be able to see her mother.

‘Thinking about it, I may not be able to have her as a biological sister… but I can have her as a sister-in-law, right?’

So from now on, the operation to ‘make my mother my sister-in-law’ begins! <<less

Duchess Ariel.In this world, mages and awakeners are sworn enemies.... more>>

And I happened to be the leader of the mages.I tried to run away from the male lead—the emperor—my mortal enemy, out of fear.

But then the system blocked me.[Choose a branching path without revealing your identity.] Fine. I’ll survive. I’ll escape this insane story without anyone finding out I’m a Guide, and live well on my own!I was planning to live quietly and without presence…

But then—“If you toy with someone, you need to take responsibility.”

After a single night of “Guiding,” the male lead and Imprint Candidate #1, the emperor, became obsessed with me.“Sweetheart, you smell so good. Can you do it again?”

Then there’s Serwin—an absurdly handsome man who doesn’t even exist in the original story. With a mysterious smile, he flirts constantly and becomes Imprint Candidate #2.“I gave everything to you, My Lady!”

A sickly beautiful mage who keeps following me around ends up as Imprint Candidate #3.“I’ll protect you.”

The emperor’s knight, who used to charge at me like an enemy, now declares he’ll protect me—Candidate #4.“I want to know more about you.”

Then a knowledge-hungry, diligent, and upright cardinal shows up as the final Candidate #5.And to top it all off, there are system quests:

Argh, what do you want me to do?!

My goal was just to retire and live peacefully as a duchess! <<less

“What should I do with your tantrums? I’m too busy right now to be by your side.”... more>>

Well, since entering the dungeon, I hadn’t really paid proper attention to Cha Sahyeon due to being occupied with various things.

It was a golden opportunity to make my face known by Kwon Taehyeok and Ryu Seonghyeon, the targets of the main quest, not to mention the unexpected participation of the Ronic Guild in the raid. Cha Sahyeon seemed to have caught my playful murmurs as his shoulders trembled. Eventually, I heard his subdued voice: “…Don’t go.”

“What?”

Leaning against my shoulder, Cha Sahyeon stared at me intensely. “Don’t go.”

“…!”

For a moment, a strange light seemed to flicker in Cha Sahyeon’s green eyes directed at me. Simultaneously, a loud notification sound echoed around us. <<less

“We're getting a divorce.” Artia said.... more>>

Lloyd's eyes widened, and then he let out a crooked laugh.

Like he'd heard the funniest joke in the world.

When he finally stopped laughing, he leaned down and grabbed his wife's chin as she lay on the floor.

“Go ahead, divorce me. If your goal is to separate from me, it would be much easier to hang yourself than divorce me.”

There was not the slightest trace of affection for his wife in his cold voice.

And it was the same for Artia. Three years of marriage had left her with nothing but a longing to end this tiresome relationship. <<less

Ellouise, a woman quietly raising her niece on her own, encounters an unexpected stranger while on vacation.... more>>

He’s infamous for falling in love faster than anyone else—

and now this unpredictable man proposes a contract marriage. His goal? To seduce a duchess who only entertains married men. And Ellouise, apparently, is the perfect decoy.

“I’ve always believed a proper proposal must come with a ring.”

Marcus blocked her path and pulled out a small box from beneath the table—a luxurious ebony case wrapped in black velvet. Inside was:

“A 122-carat royal diamond.”

The words that rose to her throat were, “Are you trying to buy me? Is this supposed to be some kind of insult?”

But…

“…it was far too much money to scold him for.”

No—it was far too much diamond.

Had one of her students come to her saying, “Miss, some man offered me money to marry him,” she would have advised them to run the other way without hesitation.

But this wasn’t a classroom.

This was real life.

And real life? That’s a whole different game. <<less

Q. I possessed a side character, but my fiancé turned out to be a narrow-eyed villain. What should I do?... more>>

A. Run (YOU DIED)

…Yeah. But it’s already too late.

Diana Wellington, a side character used in the villain’s money laundering scheme.

She tried her best to avoid any entanglement with her future fiancé, but—

“L-Little Duke…!”

“If it comes to it, I’ll sell your organs to cover the deficit.”

Of course.

She just had to overhear something she never should have!

Please spare me. I didn’t hear anything.

Actually, I heard everything, but I’ll pretend I didn’t—even if you play the xylophone on my ribs!

“Frankly, I can’t think of a simpler or cleaner solution than silencing you permanently. Do you agree?”

Plans always go awry.

If she wants to survive, she has no choice but to cooperate with the poisonous mushroom pretending to be a gentleman.

But this man… are his eyes open or shut?

Typical narrow-eyed villain—I can’t read him at all!

“Is this why I find myself drawn to you?”

“You must be mistaken.”

“Even that cold attitude is part of your charm.”

In an age where even stones become beloved pets once you get attached…

But this kind of husband? Hard pass!

This one-year fake romance—I’ll make sure it ends without a hitch!

“Don’t worry. When I say something’s ‘fun,’ it’ll always just stay as a ‘fun’ impression.”

He said with a sly tone.

“There’s no way I’ll ever fall in love with you.”

“Ever?”

“Ever!”

Ian declared boldly. <<less

My name is Charles.... more>>

I am a spy for the Empire.

Lord, please let me be a righteous spy today as well.

For the mission, I agreed to a fake marriage with an agent from the Holy Kingdom.

My goal is to sabotage his mission without revealing that I am a spy for the Empire!

“Oh my, I accidentally drank the Countess’ wine?”

“This is so boring. I might as well just go home.”

I deliberately did things that would make everyone dislike me.

That way, I could make my fake husband’s mission fail!

But then—

“My goodness! The sommelier was an assassin!”

“If it weren’t for Miss Charles, my nephew would have become alligator food!”

“Thanks to you, we were able to catch the intruder!”

Huh? Why is everyone reacting like this?

[The Hero of the Empire, Charles Courtney!]

No! I was only acting this way to make the mission fail!

And on top of that…

“I’ve been pretending not to know all this time.”

“But now, you think you can just run away from me?”

Even my fake husband, who had always suspected me, was acting strangely.

“If you made me fall for you, you have to take responsibility.”

Wait, you weren’t like this before! <<less

I reincarnated into a grimdark fantasy's villainous noble house.... more>>

And not just anyone-I'm the illegitimate daughter of the duchess, who's rumored to be a half-wit and unable to even walk properly.

"Who are you calling 'big brother'?! Address me as 'young master'!"

But everyone's been deceived by my mother's lies.

The illegitimate child isn't me, it's the eldest son of the house, Boris Rohia, the little tyrant of House Rohia who used to torment me relentlessly.

"Lately, I've been thinking... we might be a bit alike."

Even my second brother, Joseph, who's the only one that ever looked out for me, is destined to become the main lead's worst nightmare and a top-tier psychopathic mastermind.

"Hahaha! At last, it's born! [Materia] !"

And to top it all off, I'm actually the prophesied savior of the world...

...except because I've been mistaken for an illegitimate child, the newborn youngest sibling, Yubel, is believed to be the savior instead.

'What the f*ck.'

The whole world is out to screw me over!

But I won't go down without a fight.

With a smile, I grit my teeth. <<less

Shining blond hair, an unrealistically handsome appearance, and deep eyes that seemed to hold a story.... more>>

……And

clothes so extravagant you wouldn’t want them even if they were free.

“Uwaaaaah-!!”

“Aaaaaaah-!!”

Just like that, one day, he fell into our house.

“My name is Leandros Julian Terrion Etsina. I am the second son of a ducal house and the official heir.”

At first, I thought he had come out of a movie.

From one of those many European historical dramas.

“This is a cellphone, this is a laptop, and that’s a pair of headphones. They’re all expensive, so don’t touch them carelessly. Especially the laptop.

If I lose my assignment, I’ll charge you with property damage and send you to jail.”

“Outrageous! No one may imprison me without His Majesty the Emperor’s permission!”

“Kid, this is a democratic republic protected by a constitution, so that kind of thing doesn’t exist here.”

A twenty-year-old knight and the next duke.

That man, who had just become an adult and wore a sulky expression, looked quite cute.

“Still, let’s not get too attached. You have to go back anyway, don’t you?”

……But it’s never that simple.

In the end, in just a few days, in that moment when he whispered love—

he vanished just as suddenly as he had first appeared.

***

It was only after he left that I learned where he had come from.

A romance fantasy novel about 1,000 pages long.

And unintentionally, this time, I ended up entering his world.

But in the world of the book, ten years had already passed, and Leandros, still wearing the face of that lovely young man, had become a completely different person. <<less

She was killed again.... more>>

Then she opened her eyes as a fallen noble, Eureia Craycia.

Normally, one would be confused in a moment like this, but…she was familiar with this situation, with this world.

Because she had once lived here and been mu*dered by unidentified wizards.

“I don’t want to die again!”

Eureia, who knew this world and was a hard-working adaptable person, wanted to regain her top position at the Merchant Guild, which was once hers, and get rid of her debts.

Seven years ago, she, the head of the Cheshire business suddenly disappeared, and her men now once again gathered at Eureia’s side.

“You look a lot like someone I know.”

“You seemed to be able to see through me just like her.”

“I feel uneasy. I’m afraid the master will like him more than me.”

Eureia, surrounded by obsessive men, approached the shocking truth that killed her seven years ago. <<less

Siana was the princess of a small kingdom.... more>>

Until the Imperial Army attacks…

Right before her head is blown off by the cruel prince,

Siana screamed.

“Please spare me!”

Toward the crown prince with red blood on his beautiful face.

She begged in a desperate voice.

“I have many skills learned in the palace.

Wouldn’t it be perfect to treat me as a maid?”

So Siana became the apprentice maid of the imperial palace.

However, the work suits my aptitude more than I thought?!

If you use a broom, the hallway will be clean.

If you knead the dough, sweet cookies are baked.

When you do laundry, the white comforter smells great!

I just did my best as a maid.

The imperial family slowly begins to open their hearts to Siana.

“Your tea is always the best.”

“A dress you made? It’s very beautiful.”

“I want to ask you to educate the prince.”

But I never intended to capture this man’s heart…

“Me, too.”

“……”

“I can’t live without you, Siana.”

Siana tightly closed her eyes at the sorrowful voice of the prince.

Look, Your Highness.

I want to live as an ordinary maid! <<less

After committing many atrocities as the tyrant’s knight throughout her life, she decided to end it all.... more>>

However, she was reborn.

Determined not to repeat the same mistakes, Maya decides against joining the Imperial Guard and instead, enters into a contractual marriage with Grand Duke Tristan.

‘We can both benefit from this contractual marriage.’

She thought the conditions of the contractual marriage were reasonable for them both.

That is, until she realized she had to share a bed with him.

“So, you only intended to take my body, my dear.”

That was before her too-handsome husband began to seduce her.

Grand Duke… You weren’t like this before, right? <<less

The most genius wizard in history and the person who killed over tens of thousands of people.... more>>

Shurin Strogel, the evil dragon’s only daughter. The day she killed the evil dragon who did not hesitate to ab*se her with her own hands,

She is betrayed by her colleague, whom she thought was her colleague, and she is also killed. She ends up possessing the body of an orphan who has no one to turn to. ‘What’s wrong with my life?’ Shurin has lost her magic and is now being ab*sed by the orphanage director.

At that moment when she was struggling to survive somehow, someone appeared in front of her. “I want to adopt that child.” Duke Alteira Clasta, known as a blood-crazed monster slayer. “What do you think, would you like to be my daughter?” Thus, Shurin became Ariel Clasta, the only daughter of Duke Clasta.

From then on, she lives a different life than before… <<less

I accidentally got s**ked into a failure game just because I made a mistake once on the contract. It was a game I had challenged hundreds of times before, so I thought I could easily clear it with my eyes closed, but...... more>>

"After already seeing the ending?"

...This is unexpected, isn't it?

* * *

It turns out my mission is to take care of the welfare of the exhausted hero after the ending! They say that's how I can return to the original world.

"Your help is not needed."

However, our hero, who used to default to kindness, firmly maintains a barrier. You shouldn't ignore a seasoned player in a failure game. That barrier, I'll break it somehow!

"Hero! Shall I help you change your clothes?"

"Hero! Put down that rock-like bread right away and have the freshly baked one I just made."

"Hero! Why aren't you sleeping yet? It's mandatory to rest after 12 o'clock."

I only took care of the hero's welfare and left, but...

"Come back, Eve."

"..."

"Have you started to dislike me now? Or perhaps, do you think I won't be able to protect you?"

Reuniting with the hero wasn't part of the plan, so what's this situation?

"Don't worry, Eve. Everyone who could threaten you... I've already killed them."

...Hasn't the genre changed a bit here? <<less

It’s the era of Transmigration.... more>>

I wanted to possess a body of a rich young lady in a Rofan childcare novel, and live while receiving lots of love.

No. 1 to be avoided!

No. 1 in frustrating the reader!

I possessed someone inside an infinite return novel called: Return Until the World is Saved.

Forget being a young lady from a prominent family, I will soon be ruined because the survival difficulty of the original work is S-Class.

I became an extra. Ailette, the young daughter of a servant in the Count’s manor.

We are poor, but it’s a happy life between a kind brother and a good father.

I’ve got a best friend I’ve never made before because I was always busy.

Even the gods of the Transmigration Management Bureau are openly fond of me.

I’m living a life full of confidence.

On top of that, I accidentally bought the ‘After-Life Insurance’ full package just before my death.

I leveled up with the high-speed growth buff, and diligently destroyed the original plot.

Thanks to plenty of special privileges, I came to give satisfaction for all the frustrated readers of the original work.

“You wiped your face with your dirty hands.”

“…….”

“Don’t be surprised. It’s because I have an obligation to be kind.”

And then, there’s the protagonist who is still nothing more than a handsome push over, Thesilid.

‘Why is he being this crafty with me?’ <<less

“I didn’t cheat on you with your fiancé; it was fate, do you understand?”... more>>

The heroine eloped with my fiancé.

On the day of our engagement.

After a moment of disbelief, the male lead came to me.

“The lady I picked out for the contract marriage ran off with her friend’s fiancé.”

“Goodness, there’s a lady just like me.”

“So I’m thinking of proposing a contract marriage to that friend.”

The eyes beneath the bushy eyebrows gleamed sharply.

“Will you marry me, milady?”

… It seems to be me.

✩₊˚.⋆☾⋆⁺₊✧✩₊˚.⋆☾⋆⁺₊✧✩₊˚.⋆☾⋆⁺₊✧

Since my fiancé ran away anyway, there wasn’t much choice; I entered the wedding hall with the male lead.

I agreed to the contract with the intention of running away if necessary.

“I’ll try to make you a precious person to everyone.”

His fingertips, which descended to my earlobe, lightly brushed my tiny earring.

Shivers ran down my spine.

“The earring suits you very well.”

The earring had a purple gem that matched his eye color.

Something seems wrong with this contract marriage after all. <<less

A sickly noble lady blessed with overflowing wealth and beauty makes a contract to extend her life!... more>>

“Are you really going to make a contract with a guardian and mage?”

In a cave accidentally discovered at a hot spring visited for recuperation,

A man standing between transparent blue pillars spoke with cold eyes.

Lady Leah Piert pondered carefully.

Noble bloodline, loving family, and abundant wealth.

She can’t let her second life, which came like a reward after ending her miserable previous life, be forcefully terminated because of her sickly body.

“…Do we have to do this every day?”

“We agreed to this, didn’t we?”

“I think I made a mistake.”

“What are you saying? We still lack proper bonding as contractors.”

A breathtakingly handsome but rigid guardian of justice and,

The kingdom’s most popular noble lady who receives fervent support in everything she does.

Their hundred-year contract takes a suspicious turn… <<less

I reincarnated as a character in a novel.... more>>

The problem is that the failed love story of the sub couple in the story is my parents.

If my mother, who ran away while pregnant with me, reunites with my father, a terrifying, sad ending filled with death and catastrophe awaits!

Thanks to twisting the original story, the reunion with my father won’t happen, but in exchange, my mother is at greater risk of dying sooner.

"You’re wrong. The poison has already spread throughout her body. She will die within a few days."

In the end, to save my mother, I have to go find my father on my own...

"I’m your daughter!"

Can I truly overcome this tragic fate and achieve a happy ending? <<less
