“I’m definitely quitting this job! I’m going to resign and run away!”... more>>

Exploited here and there as a pawn because of my special purification abilities, I died a tragic death, and then I was reincarnated as Seraphina, an extra character in the male leads’ flashbacks.

It’s unfair to die after wandering around battlefields, and to be quickly forgotten as soon as the female lead appears.

“Do you think my words are a joke? How long has it been since I called you, and you’re only showing up now?”

Hey, guardian of the north.

I just ran here from another battlefield without a single day of rest, you know?

“How disloyal. It is your duty to protect the imperial family.”

How can I protect you!

You’re stronger than me, you damned emperor!

“Your obedience in serving the call of God is beautiful. Now, shall we continue?”

And you call yourself the captain of the Holy Knight Order?

You’re just a bad XX who exploits labor. Boohoo.

I prepared carefully and seized the opportunity to run away, and finally succeeded.

Yay, hooray!

I’m free!

……Or am I? <<less

"The most unnecessary existence in my life would be the Empress."... more>>

Aristena, who as a nominal Empress, was treated like her husband's burden for a lifetime.

She lost her life in place of her husband, who was to become a hero in the war against monsters, wanting to be of help at least at the end.

The moment she opened her eyes after closing them in distant pain…

Somehow, she was alive. Moreover, in a body that looked about 8 years younger.

Aristena, who had lived an unfortunate and miserable life that no one would glorify, wanted to live a different life this time.

But...

'Why is this person next to me? And why am I not wearing a stitch of clothing?'

Clothes scattered on the floor. No, to be precise, seeing her own clothes torn and strewn about, she was shocked.

And... she almost lost her breath in horror when she realized that the man lying next to her was her ex-husband who would become the future Emperor.

Even when she was his wife, they hadn't consummated their marriage.

With the body of an unmarried woman...

No, after deciding not to get involved with him, to do such a thing!

A pair of languid violet eyes gazed at Aristena. Soon, he wrapped his arm around her waist and pulled her close.

"Aristena. This time, don't try to leave me."

Finally, she realized that in this life too, she had become entangled with this man.

And in a completely different way from her past life.

The story of a woman trying to find her worth in a new life, and a man belatedly trying to repay her. <<less

I will be a proud son!... more>>

“Mother, if you need anything, just let me know! I’ll do it! ”

Gerald Martinez, would bring death and chaos to the empire and eventually destroy the world.

The mother of the soon-to-be monster, and the villainess who completely ruined Gerald’s childhood, Anditne, is possessed by me.

This tiny brat will eventually turn the dukedom into hell?

My hands, which had been tending the garden out of frustration, became merciless as a small face suddenly appeared in my field of vision.

“Ah, Mother… isn’t the soil all compacted? ”

I also saw a child who had been following me around all day on short legs, and

“I will find you before it’s too late, even if you leave this place so that you can keep your promise.”

I thought he was a blunt and cold husband, but the more

I looked at him; I was more drawn to the duke who looked precisely like Gerard….

There’s nothing I can do.

Since it’s come to this, I have no choice but to raise them well! <<less

"The imperial family has decided to change your fiancée."... more>>

Meia, the flower of the social world who leaves no room for error and has dedicated her entire life to becoming the perfect fiancée for the Crown Prince.
However, all she received in return was an abrupt and one-sided notice of annulment.

'That Crown Princess position is nothing to me now.’

Contrary to many people's concerns, Meia's expression remained unwavering as she turned her back on everything.

"I want you."

Until she met Theodore, the Grand Duke of the Sirius Empire, who boldly confessed from their first meeting.

* * *

“Judging by your expression, it seems you know who I am.”
"Who wouldn't recognize the house of Florence from the Sirius Empire?"
"Then I'll get straight to the point."

The man smiled mischievously, lifting the corners of his mouth.

"I would like you to come to me." <<less

How would you feel if you thought you had been born an aristocratic daughter with a golden spoon, only to be thrown into the harsh reality of becoming the daughter of a count family deep in debt.... more>>

I was reincarnated into ‘Lady, Please Pay My Debt’, a romantic fantasy game about repaying debts (where love is only exploited). I managed to raise the fallen family and settle all debts. Now Irina is free! But the joy was short-lived when a new quest appeared… …

[‘Irina Sheik’. Pay off the debt of Cassis Luwin, the hero of the empire, and save the empire from destruction!]
No, wtf. What is this sound? Cassis Luwin is the male lead in ‘Lady, Please Pay My Debt.’

The male lead owes a debt? Shouldn’t a Male lead say lines like ‘From here to here, I’ll pay it all in lump sum’…?

… ? Why on earth did my existence cause the male lead to go broke? <<less

Until Deirdre discovered her husband's secret, Frederick Fairchild was nothing more than a handsome fool to her.... more>>

He claimed he couldn't ride a horse because he was afraid, couldn't wield a sword because the sight of blood made him queasy, and couldn't hunt because he pitied the animals.

That cowardly, dull appearance was all a blatant lie.

The true identity of Earl Fairchild, a man known as "someone who looks best in gold, silk, and diamonds, and is the furthest thing from guns, blades, or any of the virtues of a man," was none other than a traitor who dared to rebel against the royal family.

A daring, dangerous... and even seductive man.

"I am nothing like the person you thought I was. So if you dislike this, just imagine that another man has taken your husband's place in bed."

His burning lips pressed firmly against Deirdre's foot. She felt her mind begin to blur. <<less

The moment she lost her child, Saronne realised with a shudder that she was living this wretched life for the second time.... more>>

Her husband had treated her as nothing more than a substitute for his first love, before discarding her.

That very same first love had mu*dered her child and hurled vile accusations at her to ruin her completely.

As the flood of memories returned, a twisted smile spread across Saronne’s lips and her heart surged with a dark thrill.

Hadn’t she been waiting for this very moment?

Even in death, she had begged the heavens for a chance — a chance to return, even as a vengeful spirit, and exact her revenge.

Now that she had come back, there was only one path before her:

To crush her husband and his first love beneath her feet.

＊＊＊

To seek vengeance, Saronne sought the help of the one man who had once secretly helped her in her previous life:

Prince Leobint, renowned as the most handsome man in the kingdom.

Using the royal divorce decree to her advantage, she proposed a fake relationship with him.

But then—

"How long do you intend to keep up this act? I’m far more capable than you give me credit for, you know."

His unexpected sincerity caught her completely off guard.

What had started as playful glances soon deepened into smouldering desire, his gaze growing more heated with each passing day.

"I’ve been waiting for this moment ever since you first shared your plan with me."

His wicked, tempting grin danced before her eyes as though an invisible tail swayed behind him.

"I’ll give you everything you desire. So be with me, Saronne.”

Not as part of some charade but for real. <<less

To me, the world was nothing more than a small, closed-off room.... more>>

A life where I had no say in anything at all.

At the edge of my life, melting away like candle wax, I was quietly dying.

And then, one day, a man opened the door and walked in.

“Calm down. You’re bleeding.”

He was the first person who ever looked at me like that.’

“Will you come with me?”

That’s why—without even knowing who he was—I grabbed his coat without hesitation.

“Do you think I’m a good person or a bad person?”

He was cold, frightening, and a complete stranger.

“A… good person.”

Honestly, it didn’t matter if he was bad.

As long as he could take me away from here. <<less

“I’ll make His Highness the Grand Duke fall for me, no matter what it takes!”... more>>

I fell for the male protagonist’s younger brother, the Grand Duke, at first sight. My mouth opened on its own, and words spilled out recklessly.

“Please, go out with me!”

*

For three months, I tried every means and method to win the Grand Duke’s heart, but nothing worked on him.

…It was truly time to give up.

“You don’t need to worry, Your Highness.”

“…What are you talking about?”

“I know. I’ve been a nuisance, troubling you all this time. But… that won’t happen anymore.”

“What the hell does that mean, my lady?”

“I’ve given up on you, Your Highness. I don’t like you anymore.”

In that moment, a crack appeared for the first time on the Grand Duke’s ever-composed face. His expression twisted in an instant.

**

As per my promise to my father, I was out to meet a potential suitor, but the other party never showed up. Just as I was wondering if I should head back, a chilling voice came from above me.

“I didn’t know you were such a fickle person, my lady. You said you liked me, yet here you are at a place like this. Was it all a lie?”

It was the Grand Duke.

Hah, fickle?

“I tend to fall out of love quickly, you know. Your Highness should be well aware of that.”

“…Is that so?”

“And it seems you think I’ve only been like this with you. You don’t know anything, do you? I’m a fickle person, as you said, so even when you’re not around, I’ve been with plenty…”

“Why stop? This is interesting. Keep talking. Who else have you been like this with, besides me?”

The Grand Duke’s eyes, as he spoke, seemed unhinged, as if he were ready to hunt down and kill whoever I named. <<less

[Finally, it's over. Congratulations.]

"......"

Through a contract with Creon, the Time Demon, Rachel saved Tervan's life that she had desperately wished for.

But strangely, she didn't feel particularly happy.

Twenty-seven times she regressed, enduring death's pain each time.

Her emotions, worn and eroded from exhaustion.

She believed everyone except herself had returned to their places...

"I'm interested in you, my lady."

"Excuse me, Your Highness, but I don't think it's me."

"I've been too selfish all this time."

"You don't need to apologize, Tervan."

"Rachel, may I escort you?"

"Edward?"

Attention that should have flowed elsewhere now poured toward Rachel.

Something had begun to change. <<less

"Was there ever a single moment when you were sincere with me?"... more>>

Adrian Leicester.

The person I had loved secretly for so long.

Golden hair as warm as sunlight, gentle light-green eyes that reflected his kind nature.

A handsome face with a mischievous charm like any other boy.

His large and reassuring embrace that made my heart race every time we touched.

"I’m engaged to Ayla."

As the original male lead, he naturally ended up with the original female lead, Ayla.

So, when I found out I was pregnant after a one-night mistake,

I faked my death and left.

I thought it was a flawless plan.

Until he found me five years later.

***

"I found you, Isha."

His indifferent golden eyes were as cold as ice.

His languid, sticky gaze clung to my face.

My eyes met Rian’s unreadable ones in the air.

With predatory eyes, he seemed like a beast ready to bare his fangs at any moment.

It felt like I was being devoured just by his gaze.

"Why do you look at an old friend like that?"

He let out a small laugh.

But the corners of Rian’s eyes were red, as if starved.

His fingertips dug deeper into my wrist, like shackles.

His tired face had an air of decadence and provocation.

So different from the Rian of the past.

"Don’t worry. You’ll love me again. And you won’t be able to run away anymore."

The last thing I heard before I lost consciousness was—

"Isha, I love you."

A love confession drenched in madness.

"A Marriage Between a Devil and a Temptress—What a Perfect Farce."... more>>

[Breaking News!] The Imperial Family’s Problem Child, the Infamous Scoundrel—Duke Alexis von Václav.

He kisses the flower of high society, Grace Helio!

Overnight, her reputation plummeted.

And the man who dragged her down had the audacity to propose—his arrogance laced with mockery.

“What is this?”

“A marriage proposal. An offer to buy you at a high price. Since you'll be sold off for cheap anyway, I might as well pay for you properly. Think about it.”

He shamelessly tossed money at her like a common courtesan—

Yet, Grace did not refuse his proposal.

“I accept your offer, Your Grace.”

In truth, she had known him long before arriving in the capital.

Though he had no recollection of her, she had once treated his wounds as a battlefield nurse.

Grace wanted a happy home.

But the twisted man before her desired nothing more than her body.

“If you want it that badly, then so be it. I was barely holding back anyway.”

“Then let’s go to the bedroom.”

“Too late. Tonight, your husband is planning to become nothing more than a beast.”

With a chilling smirk, Alexis loosened his cravat and tossed it to the floor.

Now that his restraints had snapped, his mind was filled with nothing but chaos. <<less

She sacrificed herself to the enemy to save her country.... more>>

“This is why my heart is restless. Let’s try a little harder, empress.”

Ysaris, the princess of a small country.
She was forced to marry the Emperor who killed her fiancé.

She could not refuse. The fate of her homeland was at stake.

“Do you still not understand your place? You are nothing more than a spoil of war. My trophy.”

A bed shared with an enemy. Unnatural obsession and distrust. Arrogant and oppressive demeanor. Blatant disregard and cold treatment.

Enduring all of this, she lived on with difficulty…

“Rather than seeing an heir from that woman, it might be better to kill her right now.”

Ysaris overheard these terrible words from her husband.

Now, there was only one choice left for her.

‘I have to run away.’

Even if just for the sake of her unborn child. <<less

Lydia, a descendant of the last wizard, runs an antique shop.... more>>

One day, she receives a sudden proposal from the Marquis.

***

It all started with a man who suddenly showed up one day.

“I heard that you can deal with items that are possessed or cursed.”

He suddenly unbuttoned his clothes one by one.

“Why are you suddenly taking off your clothes here?!”

The upper half of his body that was exposed was covered in an ominous crimson color.

The Marquis’ request was to lift the curse.

But even with Lydia’s abilities, it took time.

The method required daily contact with him.

“Then let’s get married.”

“What kind of proposal is that?”

“The most efficient way to avoid suspicion.”

“Who gets married for that reason?”

What on earth does this man think marriage is?

***

“First, lie down and take off your clothes.”

“I get it.”

“Don’t even think about reading the papers, just lie still!”

“I’m doing as you say.”

At the voice heard from the Marquis and his wife’s bedroom in broad daylight,

The employees were simply delighted.

In reality, Lydia was struggling with the worst curse she’d ever seen, and the Marquis had become her experimental subject.

Well, isn’t that a good thing? <<less

The youngest and the first S-class guide!... more>>

I'm six years old.

I thought I was an extra, but I've awakened.

Wait a minute. Isn't that the title the original female lead had?

***

The original male protagonist, Hugo, showed signs of a rampage due to lack of guidance.

The only one who could guide him was me.

Though I was still inexperienced, I thought it would be okay since he was an S-class Esper.

That is, until Hugo collapsed from shock.

Having almost killed the precious S-class Esper, I was almost ostracized from society, so

I quietly cut off contact with Hugo and went into hiding.

Then 11 years later.

"I’ve never seen you before. Are you a transfer student?"

I reunited with Hugo at school for the first time in 11 years, and he didn't recognize me.

"Your shoelaces are untied. You still tie your knots weirdly."

Wait, hold on.

Hey, are you sure you don’t recognize me? <<less

“Live like a ghost. Don’t do anything weird.”... more>>

I possessed a supporting character who lived as a villainess, divorced the male lead, and died.

When I possessed her, her sin had already piled up like a mountain, and she didn’t want to meet a death ending, so I lived live like a ghost, as the male said, and waited for my opportunity to leave.

She treated her younger brother-in-law who had a limited lifespan with her meager stamina, and she sold her belongings to save money for the future.

when her younger brother-in-law’s illness was completely cured, she was about to leave… … .

“Let’s get divorced now.

But since I saved Theo, you’ll at least give me a mansion to live in, right?”

“What do you mean?”

“… … If that’s too hard, a small house is fine.”

“Divorce? Why are we getting divorced?”

Because it was time to give up her place to the female lead?

“Divorce doesn’t exist in my dictionary.”

It wasn’t just the male lead who became strange.

Even her brother-in-law and the mansion staff, who should hate and detest me, clung to me.

“Where are you going, Sister-in-law!

“If my sister-in-law disappears, I will die without even eating!”

“If the lady is not here, this mansion will become a mess. Don’t leave, my lady!”

Is this the destruction of the original?

It can’t be helped. That’s what happened… … . <<less

“I do not love you, Lady Juliana Loengrin.”... more>>

The words that came out of the mouth of her fiancé, whom she had no doubt would propose, were not a confession but a demand for annulment.

However, her troubled heart was short-lived. Ultimately, she ended their nine-year engagement and set out once again due to the emergence of new monsters.

As always, she was accompanied by the fearsome Duke Anthus Rockbellion.

* * *

“A confession is one thing, but I have not permitted you to call me by a pet name, Your Grace.”

“Oh dear, I keep forgetting. Since you didn’t stop me from calling you by a pet name yesterday, I thought it was allowed.”

“Seriously!”

“Because of me, your marriage prospects are blocked, and people misunderstand… I have no choice but to take responsibility.”

Anthus, smiling mischievously, did not miss this opportunity either.

But wait, this man, who couldn’t even make proper eye contact before, why has he suddenly become so brazen? <<less

Velakshina, a villainess infamous for her wicked deeds, falls from grace alongside her family's downfall and is reduced to a s*ave.

Just standing in the s*ave market as a disgraced, wretched being makes her want to die. Yet her so-called "master" dares to say this masterpiece of a line:

"Your purpose is to share my bed, conceive my child, and give birth."

'Yup. My life is over.'

Among all the bad endings fit for a villainess, this surely must be the worst of the worst…

Or so she thought.

"Oat biscuits made from the oats we use for horse feed would probably be better than this."

"How could you even think of dressing me in a second-hand gown?"

"If you repeat the same mistake, consider yourself due for a whipping!"

'The more I act out, the worse things should get…'

Your teeth are impressively strong! I watched you bite right through that tough biscuit!

I can't die after barely coming back to life, can I?  

I managed to save enough money and successfully fled to another country...  

"Darling, do you like leaving me behind?"  

A self-proclaimed crazy mage came looking for me.  

He should be head over heels for the female lead by now!  

"Since you ran off on your own, I'll take you back as I please."  

The mage, who teleported into my house, even imprisoned me!  

"I held back because I didn't want my cute maid to cry, but now I'll let it all out."  

The mage, smiling with his eyes curved while untying the strings of my apron, was definitely insane.

"Riss is my maid. So hand her over to me."  

Male lead 1, who wasn't interested in women, claimed I was his property,

I was promised 10,000 gold coins in exchange for curing him.

“It’s convenient because my goal is money.”

At first, he spoke coldly…

“You’re too naive. Is that all you need?”

“Huh?”

“You saved me, so you should be greedy for more.”

“You’re going to give me more money, right?”

I reached out to him, and he placed his hand on top of mine.

The Grand Duke of the North, Tehis, wanted to avoid marrying the princess.... more>>

So, he made the mistake of saying he liked things opposite to her.

Or was it fate?

He never thought the woman who matched his hastily assembled ideal type would actually appear.

“Then see you in the bedroom, my love.”

……And he never imagined she would kiss him in front of the princess at their first meeting.

Chloe only helped the Grand Duke on a whim.

She never expected to meet him again at the Magic Tower, nor to be offered a strange contract.

A dating contract? A wizard dating?

It was absurd, but the reward was too tempting to refuse.

And if she was going to do it, she decided to enjoy it.

“I’ll choose you. My ideal type.”

Chloe laughed.

The man’s cold face turning blank was amusing.

"Doesn't it seem plausible that we started dating because we were each other's ideal type? After all, both of us are fake, so there's nothing to worry about."

But will it really remain fake until the end? <<less

And 5 years later, I opened my eyes in an unfamiliar body…

‘Now all that’s left is to enjoy the peaceful world!’

I just wanted to live a modest extra’s life, but the male leads who killed me keep pestering me?

Nevermind that they discovered my identity, but now there are three (crazy) male leads smiling with tears in their eyes.

“Ever since you died, I’ve always had the same dream. Burning the entire continent and staining even the last handful of soil with blood.”

My ex-fiancé, who had demanded to break off our engagement saying he loved another woman, has gone mad in an elegant way..

“I killed God. That damn God who gave the oracle to kill you.”

The Pope of the Holy Kingdom, who tried to kill me to save the saint, has ascended to become a holy lunatic.

And the one I least wanted to meet,

“Please, don’t disappear again. Jella.”

My noble knight who became a hero of the people after killing me has gone beautifully insane…

Boom!

The moment he whispered to me in a chillingly gentle voice,

A mountain behind him flew away with a thunderous sound.

“Wait. Did a mountain just fly…!”

“This peaceful world achieved through your death…”

As I rolled my eyes in surprise, he covered my eyes with his large palm and sweetly threatened,

“Don’t make me destroy it with my own hands.”

The problem is… the male lead is my husband.

The bigger problem? My husband is an idiot.

And the biggest problem? He's only pretending to be an idiot—and I have to act like I don’t know!

Now I’m stuck in this twisted, stressful mess.

In the quiet countryside village of Manoli, a newcomer named Robert arrives.... more>>

The stranger from the capital city of Laurent becomes the subject of countless rumours, yet no one in the village truly knows his identity.

Amid the swirl of gossip, the mysterious man shows a particular kindness to Sasha.

"If you want, you can come visit again."

"Anytime I want? Then what can I do for you in return?"

"I don’t need money. If you feel obliged, paint me a picture to hang on the wall."

With Robert’s permission, Sasha begins to visit his estate freely, painting as she pleases.

Meanwhile, Robert’s true identity as the Duke of Guienne—a renowned figure in Laurent's high society and the wealthiest man in Brissen—remains hidden. Initially approaching Sasha out of curiosity, the Duke begins to feel something more.

An unsettling urge, akin to desire but far more complex, gradually takes hold of him.
