‘Sophia, the daughter of a Marquess, is a villainess who seduced the Crown Prince, despite having a fiance already, and his close aide during her time in the academy. She did whatever she pleased and was banished by her half-sister, to be the bride of a Madman who lives in a remote region.’... more>>

While that kind of rumor spread throughout the capital, Sophia isolated herself in the library inside the mansion of the man whose nickname was ‘Lord Hart, the Math Freak’.

However, the real Sophia was actually a History geek who rarely expressed herself but a well-spoken lady. Thus, she received the nickname ‘eccentric shut-in’ from the Lord himself.

Lord Hart only demanded her to bear his heir but aside from that, Sophia was free to do anything and immersed herself in books all day long. Yet, she was required to attend a ball together with Lord Hart due to some circumstances.

As Sophia stayed with that detestable man, she was slowly getting to know him more. <<less

Xiao Qing makes a solemn vow in front of her good friends. If she gets married, it will not be with some hot stock with momentum just to rise rapidly. Rising so quickly will certainly not last long.

File #0001:... more>>

Suspect: Erika Guruh

Alias: Omen

Character Profile: sinister-looking, extremely rude, notorious

Deduction: No doubt she’s the perpetrator. Besides, all evidence found points straight at her.

Facts: It’s an open secret that the accused and the victim have been at each other’s throats and that the beef between them worsened after speculations of the suspect desiring to snatch the victim’s boyfriend came to light. No wonder when the victim was found at death’s doors on the premises of a construction site, the suspicion was immediately pointed towards the suspect.

However, the situation is even more convoluted than it seems due to the suspect running away with her thug-like motorcycle-taxi-driver, despite being under house arrest. This act by the suspect only stands to further strengthen the suspicions towards her. The suspect was also the first person to arrive at the crime scene of the following victims.

My Mission: Prove that the accused is, in fact, innocent. And to find the actual perpetrator. <<less

This stands at the forefront of strategy guides to Life (a shitty video game)!... more>>

Life is a bad video game. This commonplace phrase is, unfortunate as it might be, the truth.

After all, Life has no simple, easy rules. The rules it does have are nothing but irrational and unfair. The strong claim that Life has a high level of freedom, but the weak have no choice but to cope with an overwhelmingly disadvantageous design.

That’s why it’s a sh*t game.

Since I, Japan’s leading gamer who has experienced and mastered a multitude of games, say so, there can be no mistake.

— However, that person, on top of having mastered gaming to about the same level as I, declared to me that Life is a god-tier game.

Destined to be a top-tier character, that person is the school’s perfect heroine, Hinami Aoi. And to top it off, she even says she will teach me the rules of Life?

…… Normally, I wouldn’t believe such a thing. However, Hinami Aoi is someone who does not fit into a frame like ‘normal’ at all!

My name is "Araki Jin".... more>>

A second year student attending a high school in the city.

On my way home from shopping, I looked up at the tower apartment with my little sister who had just gone to elementary school.

My little sister, Mai, described a 50-story structure building that was just built last month as "It looks like a castle!".

From my POV, it looked like a cold inorganic object. ......Of course, I'm not being sarcastic.

In order to satisfy my sister's longing for fairy tales.

"Maybe a princess lives here."

I say to myself.

And at the same time I think,

-A princess has nothing to do with us.

But I was wrong.

Reality is not a fairy tale.

A prince can be a bad guy, and a monster can be a hero.

That's why it's possible for me to meet the princess, Shindo Rei, who lives on the top floor of a tower apartment building.

If you don't mind, please listen.

This is a fairytale story about me and Rei, but it's not a lie, it's reality. <<less

He moved his hand smoothly over Vivian’s arm and swiftly swept her lips against his.

Charmed by her tiny defiance, he slid his hand and stopped precisely under her curvy waist.

“Ah… … !”

“What's wrong? You knew it would come to this as well.”

Though his words were intimidating, his touch was full of warmth.

As if his temporary blindness was just a lie, his hands were vigorously seeking out her weaknesses and began his ruthless attack on them one after another.

Vivian was unable to stop her moans under the hands of his lascivious and stimulating touches.

On the very same bed that she had first climbed up to nurse his health, now it was herself that had been laid flatly to be enjoyed by him.

Even though she knew that the quiver she felt in her lower abdomen was wrong, she couldn’t help but to crave for his touch even more.

“We are going to marry later, anyway.”

He smiled sweetly as he kissed Vivian. Alas, Vivian was silently crying inside.

“Don’t leave me, princess. All right? You can’t die.”

The Duke that abducted me was a beautiful madman, an educated madman. He would visit me from time to time and stare at me as if I were an important piece of art he had carefully stored away. His eyes were ascetic yet strangely decadent, sensual yet full of flavor. I didn’t know why this man, who seemed insane, would do this to me.

What was inside the pretty wrapping paper of gentlemanly manners, elegant and graceful appearance, was a kind of madness. The man’s madness gave off a calm, eerie, and bizarre atmosphere like a work of art with a twisted meaning.

“I want to kill everyone except you, my Diana.”

She tried to control and tame this man, possessed by a cruel demon.

Originally, the word she always heard in life was “madman”. <<less
