A world of magic.... more>>

I had a dream ever since I was young, and that was to become ‘a receptionist onee-san’ at a certain place. But only first-class magicians could become one, or so my parents told me… First-class? So what? What about it? That meant I just had to work hard to become first-class, right?

She was a solitary witch who had died exactly 200 years ago.

She had hoped that if she were reborn, she could use the magic she had learned and live a peaceful and happy life.

However, now that she remembered, her body clearly showed signs of malnutrition, with bruises all over, and she even had to do the work of the servants herself.

Sai Momoyama, a 24-year-old Secretary to the President of a major corporation, was on a company trip to Kyoto with her friends. While exploring the temples of Kyoto, she accidentally fell into a pond. When she opened her eyes, she found herself transported to the Sengoku era, a time of warlords and samurai.... more>>

There, she met a woman named Yoshi and soon found herself under her care at a small diner. However, the diner had only one dish on the menu, prioritizing quick preparation over taste. Dissatisfied with the lackluster sales and repetitive menu, Sai decided to lend a hand in the kitchen.

From that moment, Sai’s life took an unexpected turn. She encountered various challenges and met warm-hearted customers who transformed her perception of the Sengoku era.

Author’s Note: ** It’s not an accurate historical depiction but rather a story inspired by the Sengoku period with a touch of the atmosphere found in otome games. The focus is on creating comforting dishes that warm the hearts of those who taste them. <<less

However, after being asked if she was a half or a quarter and then given an irresistible job offer, she couldn’t help but be suspicious. Just as she was thinking about this, she noticed that the name on the door read as “Ayakashi Clinic” and panicked.

When I noticed, I was surrounded by a bunch of people wearing kimonos. When I looked into the river water, what was there was a young child… Eh, it’s me!?... more>>

The place where I washed ashore was a gaudy neighborhood, Yoshiwara. Huh? But it looks like the ones behind the lattice are men.

The ones who picked up the still young me from that strange place was an old man from a brothel called the『Amazuki Brothel』.

The place I was brought to was a men filled red light district. It seems that over here, men who had no choice but to become prostit**es were called Yuudan (male courtesan). Then I was given the name Nogiku and made to hide from the female customers and provide assistance.

For some reason I was also given courtesan training, but I’m not male!! I don’t want to learn how to seduce women!!

However, when I became 16 I looked at the handsome men who’d grown up with me as comrades and realized. This was the world of『Seeing a Dream Male Courtesan District ～A night spent together～』. I couldn’t even recall about myself but for some reason I remembered that I had played that game.

Nogiku was that otome game’s villain character. She got in the way of the protagonist’s love who sought to get closer to the men, and in the end she would even kill, she was a woman who wasn’t choosey of her methods. Because she was that type of woman she was given hellish punishment by the protagonist and co, but…

I don’t want thaaaaAAAt! I won’t interfere. I can only consider my fellows as older brothers, as something like comrades in arms!! I intend to help stealthily from the shadows. <<less

I remembered. In my previous life, I was referred to as a fujoshi. And that this world is a BL game I have played back then. Not to mention.. my big brother is actually the protagonist! What kind of blessed life is this?!... more>>

However, it’s a pity that my brother is already in a secret relationship with his childhood friend. When all is said and done, I can only watch as the game’s main story timeline came to an end. Isn’t this basically the God amusing oneself by messing with this poor soul?! Really?? God?? When I can finally witness a real life BL, why must my joy be tempered with?! God! Ain’t this a bit too cruel of a treat!

Well, it’s alright I guess. In fact, to be able to experience this is already totally amazing. And the delicious treat is already served! Therefore, I will feed myself by observing the capture targets that was not tied to my brother!

… And that would be the first blunder I made. How could I forget… the fact that I looked so much like my brother–! <<less

When I regained consciousness, I found myself in an otome game. I would quickly head towards destruction. It made no difference whether it was a good ending or a bad ending.

Nevertheless, I was conscious, but was unable to make any actions as I was completely in auto-mode. In the first playthrough, I was extremely flustered; on the second playthrough, I was despairing; by the third round, I had already given up. And now, the fifth round has already ended. For the sixth round, for some reason I had become a young girl and regained the ability to move and talk. Eh, what the heck is this? <<less

At the age of nineteen, Aliyah Elevant, the daughter of a local lord, became the fiancée and subsequently wife of the king’s younger brother. ... more>>

At first, she was confused by the marriage arrangement that was inappropriate for her status, but one day, she came to know the reason.

The king’s brother and her husband, Xeon Theaureole, had been harboring feelings for his brother’s wife, Cereza. However, since his older brother, the king, was frail, he had no heir to his name. Therefore, once the king had passed away, Xeon would succeed the throne.

Thus, in order to welcome Cereza as his wife after he ascended the throne, Xeon chose Aliyah as his wife as she’d be easy to divorce. <<less

When Zhaozhao was fifteen years old, she picked up an amnesiac young man with an immortal temperament in the snow. He was born with a beautiful face and a jade-like body. His smile was like the spring breeze and the bright moon. He was also very smart. He could understand anything with just one glance and learn anything with just one demonstration. ... more>>

On the night of she came of age, Zhaozhao sneaked under his window and asked him if he would like to marry her and live with her for the rest of his life.
　　
The young man answered with a smile: Yes.
　　
After two years of marriage, Zhaozhao and her husband were in harmony with each other and were as loving as honey. She originally thought that her days would continue on like this; peaceful and warm. But then one day her husband disappeared without warning and Zhaozhao had a dream.
　　
She dreamed that her husband was the ruthless Daoist master of the Kunwu Immortal Land. He held the power of life and death in the cultivation world. The entire cultivation world bowed down at his feet. However, he was also the villain in the story. In the future, he would fall into devil cultivation and be killed by the male and female protagonists, as well as their teammates, and not even his bones would be left behind.

After waking up from the dream, Zhaozhao traveled thousands of miles away from home and climbed a fairy mountain that was beyond the reach of mortals, just to tell her husband about her precognitive dream in order to save him from certain death.
　　
After going through untold hardships, Zhaozhao was then told by the superior immortal:
　　
"Daojun said that all the things that happened in the past was were just a tribulation of fate. The fate has now reached its end and must be cut off. Girl, from this day forward, he never wishes to see you again."

Zhaozhao accepted the gift from the Daojun. The breakup fee: an elixir of longevity. Only then did she realize that the perfect match in her eyes was just a brief blimp in the immortal king's thousand-year journey.
　　
Zhaozhao: F* this! Save him my ass! This scumbag deserves to die!
　　
Zhaozhao turned around and prepared to join the enemy. She intended to join the sect of the heroine of the novel, strengthen her body, practice immortality and live until the day when the hero and heroine stabbed her husband to death with a sword.
　　
Who would have expected—
　　
She was too early.　　

The sect that will be very powerful in the future was not only completely powerless right now, it was only one step away from bankruptcy. The male and female protagonist who will stab her husband to death in the future were only five years old, skinny and only one breath away from death.
　　
Zhaozhao’s original revenge plan: Live until the day the scumbag is stabbed to death (crossed out).

Zhaozhao’s new revenge plan: Prop up the endangered Sect and ensure that the hero and heroine can survive until the day they stab the scumbag to death.

After Xie Lanshu returned from the passing his calamity, his cultivation greatly increased and he accepted the worship and congratulations from all the four corners of the immortal world.

Until the day the two of them met again. His wife had a beautiful appearance and excellent cultivation. She was already the head of a large sect and there were countless male cultivators who admired her.

There were also two pink and jade-shaped children who were inseparable from her, very intimate, and their eyebrows and eyes...
