He, who had been so devoted to her, suddenly betrayed Calliope for the saintess who had traveled the lands in search for knights to defeat the demon king. He turned his back on Calliope and left to follow Clementia as the chosen knight fated to subjugate the demon king, who is resurrected every 500 years, saying he felt true love for the latter.

Foolish Calliope waited for him, hoping to take that one chance to cling to him when he returned. She could never forget that gaze that looked at her so lovingly.

He came back a year later, dead, without a body and only his name left behind.

Stricken with grief, she lived as if she were in hell for a year. In the end, during the parade for the one-year anniversary celebration of the demon king’s defeat, she climbed up the bell tower and jumped to her death.

s*upid Calliope.
Foolish Calliope.

She could neither forget nor throw away the man who had done the same to her.

She, who threw her life away like that, opened her eyes once again. To her childhood. To the day before she entered the Marquis household. To the days as a young child with nothing. <<less

My male childhood friend was a hero. A goddess transferred him to another world to become a hero.... more>>

He was tasked with preventing the revival of the evil god that threatened the entire world. That was the setting of the story. What about me then? I’m just an extra, supporting role. The reason why I ended up in this situation was simply that I died together with that b*stard, my so-called childhood friend. Thus, the goddess sent me along to act as a supporting, behind-the-scenes player.

According to legend, the hero would appear when the evil god was about to be revived. It was his duty to defeat the evil god along with four shrine maidens chosen by the goddess and bring about a peaceful era. Otherwise, the world would be destroyed. My job was to pave the way for him to achieve this goal and help love blossom between him and the shrine maidens.

To be honest, I’d rather die than have to babysit that b*stard, but… I’m not even allowed to complain about it. I don’t care about the criticism from the peanut gallery about me being inadequate or incompetent. I did what I had to do, saving the world and getting the reward from the goddess—as a supporting role for the hero party.

That’s why, please, O childhood friend of mine, PLEASE FIX THAT ROTTEN PERSONALITY OF YOURS ASAP!

Please do so before we reach the point of no return, while my sanity is still intact—or should I say, before I get a stomach ulcer due to stress.

Oh cr*p, those four are co— <<less

During their college years, Seoin and Gitae, Mooyoung and Minho (a high school student at the time) were in romantic relationships. Gitae and Mooyoung were longtime childhood friends, and because of their connection, the four of them naturally spent time together. About a year into his relationship with Gitae, Seoin discovered a shocking truth: Gitae and Mooyoung were friends with benefits. To confirm this, Seoin went to Mooyoung’s house, where he stumbled upon Mooyoung with his boyfriend, Minho, catching them in the act of infidelity. Afterward, both Seoin and Minho experienced a painful breakup fueled by betrayal, sorting through their emotions before parting ways.... more>>

Ten years later, with news of Chae Minho’s success as a professional golfer, the four are reunited. While Seoin isn’t thrilled about encountering this tangled web of relationships again, his reunion with the dramatically changed Minho gives him a strange thrill. Minho, too, actively pursues Seoin, making cryptic remarks. Seoin begins to wonder if this is camaraderie born from witnessing their exes’ infidelity together a decade ago, or the excitement of a budding new romance. What is the true intention behind Minho’s proposal to Seoin for a fake relationship to keep Gitae and Mooyoung at bay? <<less

After the mistress passed away, the grand Fernheim estate became cold and desolate.... more>>

Its only masters were Count Redelhardt, the very model of a noble gentleman, and his admiring son, Ian.

One day, Count Redelhardt brought home the daughter of a deceased friend.

It was only natural that Ian, who had spent his whole life at Fernheim, would fall for Mari, whose mysterious beauty was like that of a fairy.

Just as the boy's first love was coming into bloom, Ian discovered by chance that Mari was being called to the count's chambers every night.

With the bitter end of that love, he left Fernheim, cursing her.

Because he could never bring himself to despise the father he longed to be like.

And three years later,

Having come of age at the academy, Ian returned to Fernheim for his coming-of-age ceremony.

Still tormented by the memories of the past, he decided to shake them off, by spying on what took place in the count’s room.

But what he saw there was a secret about Mari he had never even imagined.

And that night...

“You saw it, didn’t you? Now your misunderstanding is cleared, right?”

Mari, who had been waiting for him, came to him.

“What is your desire, young master?”

As if she already knew his heart,

“Whatever it is, I’ll help you.”

She boldly seduced him…

* * *

“I’m sorry… I’m sorry, Mari…”

Murmuring his apology in a voice that seemed about to cry, the man’s relentless movements never ceased, pressing and grinding deep inside her without pause.

“It feels like I keep hurting you… but whenever I see you, I can’t help myself…”

Ian was crying. Not literal tears, but unable to withstand the overwhelming pleasure, he sniffled as he roughly withdrew and slammed himself in again and again.

“You can’t believe it, can you? How could someone who loves you do something like this…” <<less

Sena lived each day in agony, tormented by her husband, Kallion’s, infidelity.... more>>

Unable to endure the sight of the man who had changed so suddenly, she ultimately ended her life before his very eyes.

She thought she had finally escaped all the suffering.

But instead of eternal rest, what awaited her was another chance, a return to the past.

“From now on, I won’t care who Your Grace meets.”

“…What?”

“I mean, you’re free to meet anyone. Whether they’re blonde, silver-haired, or even naked. I don’t care.”

“That’s absurd.”

“But on one condition.”

A hollow laugh escaped his lips. His expression was one of disbelief, as if he had heard something utterly absurd.

“I’ll do the same.”

Her voice was unwavering, not a hint of hesitation to be found.

Callion’s usually straight, unyielding brows furrowed, creasing like crumpled parchment.

“And what exactly is that supposed to mean?”

“It means I intend to cheat as well.”

⚜︎ ⚜︎ ⚜︎

Having returned to the past one month before, Sena resolves to take her revenge on Callion through an affair of her own.

Yet, as she carries out her plan, the once-cold Callion begins to change.

— I translated this novel as a tribute to the amazing novelist “Qiong Yao” by Hellowyellow.... more>>

In 1986, the novel was adapted into a Taiwanese romantic drama called Many Enchanting Nights. The drama was directed by Liu Lili and also starred famous Hong Kong actress Liu Xue Hua, Taiwanese actor Chin Han, and Lee Tien Chu.

Hellowyellow comment about the story: 5-10 out of 100 people must have experienced something like this. Maybe everyone who has experienced it has almost the same story framework, even though not all the details are the same… When old wounds are almost healed by time, life gives a test by sending acid rain on the wounds, which ultimately destroys faith and belief… When the body can no longer withstand the torture, the heart becomes cold and dead, hopes and dreams are destroyed by the cruelty of reality… Then, where should this self go?? To whom should this heart complain? And to whom is this hope anchored? —- Cruel?? regret? sad? hate?? ... Sigh, but life is always like that. <<less

A month ago, Erina realized she had been reincarnated into a novel. ... more>>

The male protagonist of the original story was her husband, Phaylon Eols, and Erina herself was the villainess created to highlight the love between the main characters.

She harbored a faint hope that if she acted differently from the original story, something might change.

"This woman, she's the one I love. She'll be staying in this mansion from now on."

But when she was confronted with the sight of the two together, she found it utterly unbearable.

She would take everything that was meant to be Rose's, and she would destroy everything Phaylon had built.

She would tear apart the filthy affair that they dared to disguise as love, the affair that had shattered her and cast her as the villainess. She would ruin the Eols family, who sought to confine her and let her wither away.

If necessary, she would gladly become a selfish villainess and take everything away from them. <<less

Even if he wished to leave behind a painting of Darcy and the child..

I have a secret that I can’t tell anyone.... more>>

It all started on the first day of school in my second year of high school.

Thanks to a mysterious pair of glasses I got by chance, I was able to see the “likability” of the person I was talking to.

If it’s just an acquaintance, it’s around 40.

If it is a friend, a number of about 60 appears on my forehead.

If it is a girlfriend, I would like to say it is more than that, but the likability of my girlfriend, who I am proud of and called one of the three most beautiful women in the world, is... 0

I was in disbelief at the number.

I followed her, feeling disbelief at the number.

Then, I witnessed her having an affair with another man.

I said goodbye to her and tried to go back to being a normal, shady boy, but I noticed that the girls around me were having an abnormally high score.

The other two of the three most beautiful girls on campus.

The numbers of my friend’s sister were showing 100 at every turn.

And for some reason, the number of my ex-girlfriend, whom I was supposed to have broken up with, kept going up.

How does the main character end up with such strange glasses and being pushed around by all these pretty girls? ……

If you read this book, you will definitely want a pair of glasses, and you will be captivated by them too. <<less

From the moment of admission, Delia Acremen has always been in second place.... more>>

The reason she can’t claim first place is all because of Kartan Roxen.

A detestable guy who always takes first place with his innate genius.

Delia always thought that way whenever she looked at Kartan.

"...Is this a joke?"

"I’m serious. I’ll make it so you can take 1st place."

Could Delia have ever imagined this?

That she would receive an unexpected proposal from Kartan.

***

"Just ten times. With me."

"With you?"

The words that came out of Kartan’s mouth were entirely outside the realm of Delia’s expectations.

"The condition is to have s*x with me ten times. What do you think?"

"You’re insane."

Delia’s expression froze instantly as she spat out harsh words. It wasn’t even worth listening to.

Kartan Roxen, the academy’s undisputed most popular man, turned out to be this kind of lunatic.

But.

"Graduating as valedictorian."

Though her feet weren’t tied, Delia found herself unable to move.

"Don’t you want to? No, you have to, don’t you?"

Kartan’s words pierced deep into her heart.

"How about it? Just ten times, and the valedictorian title you’ve always wanted can be yours."

His voice was as smooth and enticing as honey. If not for the condition involving s*x, one might have mistaken his words for something entirely different.

Graduating as valedictorian. It was what Delia desired more than anything. It was practically her life’s goal.

And so, Delia couldn’t immediately leave the lecture hall.

"It’s not that difficult, is it? This much between consenting adults."

The position she had longed for but had never once achieved.

An opportunity to reach that place. Her clenched fists trembled slightly. <<less

The day her husband annihilated her family and country, Lorena made a resolution. She would die in front of the man who shattered her world—the butcher of everything she held dear.... more>>

"You will never decide my fate again."

Bang!

A single gunshot echoed through the monastery.

* * *

But for some reason, Lorena returned to the past. To the very day when all the tragedies began.

This new life had to be different from the last.

She needed to find a way to save her family and escape from her husband. The answer was divorce—an ugly, scandalous divorce.

"I need a stray dog. To hunt down a hound."

"Oh…?"

"I’ll start with a one-night affair."

"You can't play with fire alone."

The man who now held the key to her second life smiled dangerously.

"The partner, is it me?"

* * *

Preview:

"We never had a good time together, did we?"

"…"

“So bear with me, as I’ve decided to bear with you.”

While Vaye fastened the safety on his gun, Lorena reached to the side, her fingers searching the desk. Her hand brushed against the cold barrel of another gun, hidden in the open drawer. She had planned for this. The gun was already loaded.

"I refuse."

On the day she learned of her brother's death in the newspaper, Lorena realized that returning to Motrel would not give her a normal life. Living in a country where everyone hated her, trapped in the arms of a man who loathed her—such a life would be unbearable. She would rather die.

But she wouldn’t die without purpose. She would die right in front of the man who had massacred her world.

She had imagined this moment a thousand times, and so she was not afraid. She was certain she would return to her family without suffering.

Feeling success within her reach, Lorena spoke joyfully.

"You will never decide my fate again."

Vaye, who had tossed his own gun aside, felt a chilling sense of foreboding and quickly turned. But Lorena's finger had already pulled the trigger.

The chamber rotated inside the barrel pressed against her temple.

*Bang.*

A single shot shook the monastery.

The last thing she saw before the light in her world went out was a pair of wine-colored eyes twisted in horror. <<less

My ex-girlfriends are chasing after me even though I’ve been dumped twice.... more>>

I, Mizumori Akito, fell in love with a girl who was always reading books in the library after school during my third year of middle school. She was Takahashi Ayano, a slender girl with shoulder-length hair who wore glasses.

We entered the same high school and were in the same class during our first year. I thought we would continue to deepen our relationship, but Ayano gradually became more beautiful and started to attract attention from others. From around that time, Ayano and I began to spend less time together.

In our second year, Ayano and I were placed in different classes. At the beginning of the first semester, we still met as we did during our first year, but gradually Ayano started to avoid me. One day, when I was about to go to a bookstore, I saw Ayano entering a hotel with Shiraishi Katsumi, a boy from her class. The next day, I was so shocked that I skipped school.

But my misfortune didn’t end there.

When I returned to school the day after skipping, my friend since middle school, Nakajima Masanori, approached me out of concern. When I told Nakajima about what I saw on Sunday, he gathered information about Ayano from his girlfriend, Imaizumi Kaoru, who was in the same class as Ayano. Shiraishi and Ayano were close in the classroom, and Ayano hadn’t mentioned me at all.

I decided to give up on Ayano. She stopped coming to the library. While I was reading alone in the library, Ichijou Sayaka from my class approached me. We became close, studying and hanging out together. She was proactive, so at the end of summer vacation, we ended up doing it.

In our third year, I was in the same class as Sayaka, but Ayano was also in the same class. It seemed that Ayano had broken up with Shiraishi and was pressing me to get back together, but I refused. However, Ayano used Shiraishi to forcefully take Sayaka away from me, and she used a video taken at that time to threaten and prevent Sayaka from dating me.

Thinking I had been dumped again, I focused solely on my studies, climbing to the top of my grade and even ranking within the top twenty in nationwide mock exams.

With Sayaka distancing herself from me, Ayano began to pursue me. However, a new development awaited as Shiraishi was caught by the police. <<less
