“If a woman lies then smile and forgive her.... more>>

If a woman complains then be quiet and listen to her.

If a woman cries then gently brush her tears away.

But above all else – You are to never strike a woman.

Is that understood, my damned disciple?”

That was the first thing the boy ever learned from his master. As a human being his master was very peculiar. One might say that he was open-hearted but to put it frankly he was nothing more than a hedonist with a personality that couldn’t be any worse. He was constantly womanizing and when there was not enough money for lodging they would be forced to sleep outside and live off the land. As a result, the brother and sister went through a lot because of this powerless man. <<less

I lived my whole life as a substitute for the lost princess.... more>>

But the moment the real princess came back,

“Let’s be thankful that it ends like this.”

I was sorrowfully abandoned.

….. No, the ending would have been the same even if the real princess had not returned.

“I think my usefulness is up to here, so I’ll leave now.”

“If you come back, I’ll acknowledge you as a real daughter.”

“I don’t need it.”

I wouldn’t be loved by anyone, but it didn’t matter. I decided to live my own life completely.

“It goes up high enough for everyone to look up to.”

“I’ll make it like that for you.”

“Don’t leave me. Do you get it?

"I'll play one more round."

"Staying up late is bad for your health, it's better to game all night."

"Ugh, so troublesome, let's just go home quickly."

"Hey, didn't you tell me? The money you spent wasn't really spent, you just traded it for a way to accompany something you like."

"No, I'm sealed in by the blanket and can't get up."

"Stood up again? I'm going to destroy this unreliable world."

"Even if I die, I still won't go out to work."

It wasn't like this in the beginning. For an ice mountain lady knight from another world to become like this, it's quite an achievement. Though it's also pretty easy. <<less

This is a story about a demon and a manga. ... more>>

Previously a human, Yuan Yuan Yuan had accidentally became a half-demon. As a half-demon, she abided by the rules of the demon realm, and wholeheartedly attempted to keep her identity as a half-demon under wraps.

However, her peaceful life came to a halt after that one night — she disguised herself and saved a human from a demon.

One week later, when she was flipping through her favourite manga that she had been following, she suddenly discovered that the plot contained a disconcertingly familiar sight.

A black haired demon… had saved a human from another demon…

With his extraordinary abilities, strikingly handsome, aristocratic face and enigmatic background, the male demon quickly rose in fame as a 2D fiction character. Yuan Yuan Yuan looked at the latest chapter of the manga, flabbergasted, before she decided to quietly chomp on some chips and choose to selectively close both eyes — none of this is real!

Soon, she realised there was a pattern to this. Ever since that night, there was a very high chance that the things she did would appear in the manga.

In fact, whatever occured in the manga were things that had happened in reality as well. Therefore, in order to stay alive, Yuan Yuan Yuan had to try her best to hide her identity

As time passed, those that were interested in such unsolved mysteries came to realise the uncanny similarities between the manga and reality, and the pattern that it appeared to follow. And so, they started searching for these 2D characters in the real world. <<less

As a cultivator, Minran has always devoted herself to the task of escaping death and living cautiously. But it seems as if…she’s done a little better than that?... more>>

During a certain adventure, a group of cultivators were caught in a trap.

The high-rank demonic cultivator laughed uproariously, “You’re all doomed now that you’ve been been struck by this deity’s heart-burning demonic prison!”

Everyone was in a panic.

The demonic cultivator said, “Unless one of you can bring out the root soil of the Liantian Flower!”1

The cultivators: “Who would pay attention to something like that!”

Minran silently opened her storage ring, retrieved the storage bag marked 564, and poured out a large mound of soil from the roots of a Liantian flower.

The demonic cultivator: “…Unless you also have powder from the coffin holding this deity’s corpse, it’s still the end for you!”

Minran silently took out storage bag 619.

The demonic cultivator: “…And the ten-thousand-year-old silt from the snow at the top of the iceberg in the coldest part of the sea connected to the underworld….”

Before the cultivators’ expectant eyes, Minran embarrassedly dug around for a while, until it was all piled up in front of the demonic cultivator, and smiled shyly while the demonic cultivator vomited blood in anger. “Thank you for your help, I wouldn’t have known how to detoxify without it.”

The demonic cultivator: “…Blergh!”

He vomited three liters of blood, then died!

‘I died and became an extra in a male-dominated fantasy novel. The only problem was, I hadn’t read the novel to the end. One thing I do know is that a terrible future awaits me, and thus, I, now Dalia, have decided to live a safe and prosperous life for the rest of my time here.... more>>

Since I don’t know what will happen, I will be a bystander observing the main character from the sidelines… I’ll make my own happy ending away from the main plot!’

With that determination, Dalia embraces the role of an extra. And like all extras, she clings to a golden thigh: Kaichen, the powerful wizard who is unwaveringly loyal to the protagonist.

For Dalia who wants to have a happy ending, it was imperative to extract herself from the novel’s plot… Yet her calm life is shaken when a flirtatious romance begins to bloom between her and her golden thigh.

Cyril was banished from a dragon knight guild.... more>>

He was banished because he wanted to interact with dragons, but the guild and the world beyond it thought of dragons as items. Cyril was treated like a crazy person.

Even after he was banished, though, Cyril didn’t change how he thought of dragons.

To beat dragons into submission may have yielded short-term results, but Cyril valued building long-term relationships with dragons.

When the guild realized he was right, they came crawling back to him with their heads bowed, but it was too late for them.

Dragons treated Cyril like he was family, and together, they would rise to the top. <<less

Fortunately, this super thick golden thigh, cold, interstellar lord major general with fair skin, handsome looks, and long legs could easily lift you up to the sky and fly.

But what if this golden thigh wants to throw you to his territory planet to muddle along while waiting for death like a dandy, and you even have to carry out the task of going forth to multiply, reproducing like a pig?

“No need… I like men.”

This absolutely pure straight lad has surely dug a pit, and he spent his whole lifetime burying it.

En, this is actually a dog-blood ‘overbearing interstellar marshal (promoted from major general) fell in love with me’ drama.

Also known as, 《The whole universe thinks that it was me, a straight guy who was bent, that bent their esteemed male god》.

“Will you kill me, please?”

The monster asked Shion, who was still strong, despite losing his powers.

“Devil, isn’t the weather nice today?”

“Would you like to go to the village festival with me?”

“I’ll even go and destroy the warrior for you!”

“… Won’t you please be patient?”

I grabbed the princess by the arm with a serious face.

Warrior or whoever, come quickly and take the princess whose head seems to be wrong.

The warrior who came kissed the back of my hand.

“You’re the one who freed this low-grade dog that grew up in a narrow cage.”

He whispered in my ear with a sad and tickling voice.

“So please don’t abandon me.”

I think there’s also something wrong with the warrior. <<less
