A genius schemer, creating an emperor!... more>>

“Only when your brother is happy can you be happy.”

She committed all kinds of evil deeds to make him Emperor. However, Artezia’s devotion was repaid with betrayal. It was the Grand Duke Cedric, a righteous enemy, that gave her a hand of salvation at the threshold of death.

“Devise a plan.”
“…”
“I can’t think of anyone but you who can reverse this situation. Marquess Rosan.”
“…”
“Lend me your strength.”

There is no plan that can reverse the already declining power and save the fallen empire. However, there is a method. To turn back time before everything went wrong.

With tears of blood she sacrificed her body to an ancient magic. This time, she will not fall.

Artezia, who returned to the age of 18 before death, resolved to become a villainess for the Grand Duke Cedric.

“Please give me your hand in marriage. I’ll make you emperor.”

In exchange for kneeling to the devil, the devil shall dirty her hands for you. <<less

After Tang Jun’s death, he unexpectedly transmigrated into the Zerg race and was informed by the system that the world he is in is a book, and his role is that of the notorious villain.... more>>

Recalling the villain’s tragic end in the book, Tang Jun decided to launch a self-redemption plan as the villain.

Doing good deeds, helping the weak, and striving to be a civilized Zerg citizen.

But an unexpected event trapped him in an evil organization.

Years later, having escaped from the organization and undergone a complete transformation (thoroughly blackened), Tang Jun let out a cold laugh.

Villain—ah, such a beautiful word. Let the world be destroyed.

　　

——

Claire, who just came back from the battlefield, received the first marriage proposal of his life. The empire’s marshal facilitated it, the royal family acted as matchmaker, and the other party’s identity was of utmost nobility.

He was surprised that a male zerg would be willing to marry a female zerg who couldn’t bear children.

After much deliberation, Claire decided to accept, though his Male Lord seemed a bit odd.

One moment he wore a gentle smile, and the next, he was quietly drawing a knife.

Claire’s impression of his Male Lord was still from a brief, stunning glimpse years ago. He didn’t think much of it and assumed it was just the male zerg’s little temper.

Until he couldn’t resist getting closer, only to see the male zerg’s other side.

In a dimly lit room.

　　

Tang Jun, holding a tool, approached with a cold sneer: “You forced me to this.”

Claire was silent for a moment, his face flushed. “So, this is what you like?”

Tang Jun: “?”

1. 1V1, HE, both are virg*ns, no angst

2. Probably a sand sculpture, neither the gong and shou are normal.

3. The gong is truly a big shot, the kind who rebels at the drop of a hat.

And so, I will use the hidden mechanics of the game, the strongest builds, and knowledge of my cleared playthroughs to survive.

Well, I have the Minor Villain skill, so I will have to start by fixing my human relations first though.

Ryuuzen Yuki is going to kill someone.... more>>

Specifically, the three corrupt figures in the television industry who mu*dered his childhood friend. The need for revenge burns deep in Yuki’s soul. He is only able to keep sane by clinging to his three self-imposed rules for revenge:

No matter what happens, act alone.

Do not involve anyone other than your targets.

If you fail, admit your crimes without complaint.

The stage for Yuki’s revenge will be Kakuriyo Island, a small tidal island south of Kagoshima Prefecture whose population was wiped out long ago in the bizarre mass-mu*der incident known as “The Beast of Kakuriyo Island case”. Though officially solved, the Beast of Kakuriyo Island is still the subject of many unsolved mysteries, not the least of which is the sheer, inhuman brutality of the crimes.

A television production crew comes to Kakuriyo Island to film a true crime special in which Mikumo Echika, an up and coming singer-songwriter and the descendant of the island’s former head priestess, will visit her family’s former home and discuss the incident that claimed her birthright. Yuki, having infiltrated the production as an AD, plans to trap them all and kill all three of his targets on the island with his own two hands.

But his plans are derailed when his first target is slain – by something else. Burning with rage that one of the men who killed Naoko will never suffer for his crimes, Yuki vows to confront both the killer and the remaining victims.

But his new enemy isn’t a mere human. The Beast of Kakuriyo Island is very real, and if Yuki seeks to achieve his revenge, he must learn what it is, how it operates… and how he can work around it and still manage to get away with mu*der.

His arrogance and insolence knew no bounds, sparing no one. A man beautiful yet untouchable, whom she yearned to define but dared not depict.

A dangerous man who threatened to destroy everything if she dared to drink.... more>>

For a while, she silently stared at their touching fingertips. What was he thinking? Cha-eon let out a dry laugh and smiled a little. When she raised her head, she met his eyes, still tilted down, watching her. The man’s eyes, perfectly suited to the dawn, were fixed on her.

“I told you to keep your eyes to yourself. You’ll be misunderstood. Can’t you control yourself?”

Suddenly, she wondered. Did this man treat other women like this too? Even women who desired him? Tap, tap. The subtle rhythm of raindrops drumming against the window, the sound of rain growing faster like breaths. Just as the sweltering heat seemed to subside, the rain returned. The monsoon, which seemed to be ending, had started again. <<less
