“I won’t marry that boy!”
“…But I’m a girl.”... more>>

I was seven years old when I was betrothed to the son of my father’s best friend.
My betrothed was a five-year-old boy who screamed that I was a boy, and then hid behind his mother’s skirt.

///////

Edmund had never loved me.

“Even if we’re to marry, I’ll live my own life, and you live yours,” he said this at thirteen.

“I won’t feel anything even if you died,” he said this at sixteen.

“I don’t think I’m ready to get married yet,” he said this at twenty, the age we’re supposed to marry.
He made excuses about not wanting to marry right now and asked for more time.

I was relieved. I didn’t want it either, so it worked out fine.

But soon after, Father brought another man home and introduced him as my new betrothed.

I was devastated. Yet, my devastation paled in comparison to Edmund’s expression when he heard the news and came calling. <<less

The third year spiritual energy was revived, humanity got swept into a real-life game of oddities, 《Folklore》.
The game randomly extracted from strange stories for its quests: If won, the quest's boss would turn into a guardian deity, holding back all sorts of evils; If failed, the oddities would completely revive, and the area implicated in the quest would completely fall to enemy occupation! ... more>>

As it had impact,
The players participating in the quest and the stream audience hated idiots who were burdens the most.

Unfortunately, when a disaster-level quest got unlocked, matched into the quest, was this,
Silver-grey long-haired, pessimistic, sickly, when others fought he slept, when others ran he showered
No matter how much more good-looking they were, it could not conceal that "I don't want to live, everyone die with me" kind of anti-social air

When his data was pulled up:
24k pure newbie.

Everyone's eyes went dark, GDI, this isn't even enough for a bite for the boss!

Yet no one knew, Wei E once was drawn into a different, much higher-dimension UF world
Over there, there would be a small quest every three days, and one big quest every five. Each quest would be stifled with a manic hopelessness, driving people to their deaths. No player was able to hang on for three years, and Wei E was the first who had a chance to live past three years—— after he bombed the Creator.

When the Creator's space was collapsing
Wei E reminisced these three years of endless fighting for his life, and strongly vowed: If there was a next life, he would definitely not get mixed in it again!

Once Wei E opened his eyes, he returned to the familiar blue planet
But before he could get excited, he discovered…… the Creator followed him out too : )
----

That day the hunting grounds got destroyed, the Creator vowed there would be one day he would kill that insolent ant
When Wei E occasionally brushed his teeth and looked up, he could see the mirror written with: "After one hundred days, I will definitely kill you."

By the fiftieth day [left], a player confessed to Wei E.
By the thirtieth day, Wei E made it to first place in 《Folklore's》most charming guy.
By the tenth day, the quest boss threw themselves on him.
By the fifth day, third day, each day, there would be people on the forums calling themselves Wei E's dog.

On the final day, the Creator really grabbed Wei E's throat, with his voice dark and frenzied: "I said, I would kill you sooner or later."

However, seeing Wei E's wearily curled lips, He thought, I perhaps should change the method.
For example, beneath his body.
————

When Wei E solved the first disaster-level quest, there were still people who felt it was a mere coincidence.
But when each and every one of the disaster-level continuously got cracked, life got brought back from death, they then shockingly discovered, that was not a coincidence, but hope that would make even spent clay revivify.

And in this absurd, despairing world, he was the walking——

“Anything. My Master Ruby.”

The head of the rebel forces and the Villainous Top, Eligos. There was something I want from him.

“Eligos. Stop the rebellion. You cannot become the Emperor.”

“In return, there is also something I want.”

Eligos, whose arm was wrapped around me, slowly stooped his head down, and we closely sensed each other’s breath. His firm fingers dazedly rubbed my lower lips. The moment I looked at Eligos with reddened eyes, his arm that had been on my waist tightened. Eligos, who laid me down on the bed in an instant, gave me a beautiful smile.

“Ruby. I wish for you to have me tonight.” <<less

Before his reincarnation, Wen Yu always thought that his childhood sweetheart, Fu Chengque, was like the snow on the high mountain, unattainable.... more>>

But later, he realized that she was not ice and snow at all. She was clearly a penguin standing on ice. With one slip of her foot, she tumbled down the mountain…

In the winter of three years ago, the first locked room mu*der in Japanese history was committed.... more>>

All of the evidence pointed to the defendant. It was certain they were guilty. And yet, they were found innocent and released. Why? Because the crime scene was a perfect locked room no one from the police or the prosecutor's office could solve.

"Since the room was locked, it was impossible for the defendant to have committed the mu*der. It's no different than if they had a perfect alibi." That was the argument of the defense, and that was the argument the judge sided with.

The ruling sent a ripple throughout Japanese society. No matter how suspicious you were or how much evidence you left behind, as long as you managed to create a locked room that no one could solve, you were immune from prosecution. With the common anti-mystery fiction talking point "there's no reason anyone would ever actually commit a locked room mu*der" completely overturned, the rate of locked room mu*ders in Japan skyrocketed.

When the police proved unable to deal with the surge of locked room crime, the Ministry of Justice published an official categorization of all known locked room tricks as an investigative aid. When that proved insufficient, Division Zero of the Tokyo Metropolitan Police Department, a police division dedicated solely to solving locked rooms, was created. When that still proved insufficient, locked room detectives, private investigators specializing in locked rooms, were officially licensed by the state and authorized to participate in police investigations. Calling a locked room appraiser, someone specializing in searching buildings for secret passages, is now a common first step in criminal investigations.

On the other side of the spectrum, locked room agents, assassins and crime planners specializing in locked room mu*ders, have become some of the most notorious criminals in Japanese history, and even a cult worshiping the scenes of locked rooms as a way to purify the souls of the deceased has made rapid inroads into Japan.

The protagonist, Kasumi Kuzushiro, is an introverted, somewhat cynical high school student who loves mysteries. Kasumi often finds himself dragged along on bizarre journeys by his flighty childhood friend, Yozuki Asahina. Due to their staggeringly bad luck, these trips often leave them in the wrong place at the wrong time to be caught up in locked room mysteries. Fortunately, another of Kasumi's childhood friends, Shitsuri Mitsumura, is the greatest locked room expert in the world, and can always discover the truth.

Hm? How did a high school girl become the greatest locked room expert in the world?

It's simple.

Ji Chu He transformed into the heroine in a stand-in abuse novel.... more>>

In the book, the male lead couldn't forget the white moonlight who was living abroad, so he found a female lead who was somewhat similar to her as a substitute.

Because it was a story about abuse, the female lead experienced being humiliated in public by the male lead's brother, being smashed in the face with money by the male lead's mother, being targeted and framed by the white moonlight who returned from abroad.

Later the female lead unexpectedly died after being physically and mentally abused, leaving the male lead to miss her for the rest of her life.

Ji Chu He, “???” The abuse article only wants to abuse her! Did anyone ask her opinion?!

So, Ji Chu He started to go crazy.

When the male lead took her to his friend’s party, someone embarrassed her in public, "This girl is not as good as your ex-girlfriend."

Ji Chu He stepped forward and slapped the person and said, "Drink some horse urine, you are so arrogant."

When the male lead's mother threw a five million cheque and sneered, "Leave my son, a girl like you is not worthy of him."

Ji Chu He picked up the check and said, “Am I not worthy of him? This is the mental compensation for being together."

When the male lead's white moonlight returned to China with her children and went into battle to win the male lead, the child pretended to be ignorant and said, "This aunt is so ugly.”

Ji Chu He, "You are even uglier, you are the most ugly."

Hearing this, the white moonlight was surprised and immediately scolded her, "How can you care about the child’s words?"

Without missing a beat, Ji Chu He replied, "You are ugly too."

The male lead frowned and stepped forward to support his white moonlight. Ji Chu He slapped him with his backhand and said, "What, you're feeling unbalanced after not receiving a scolding? Don't feel bad, you three are equally ugly."

After avenging herself, Ji Chu He's mental state was getting better and better.

Xie Li, the real young master of the Xie family, has recently been found. It is said that he grew up in the countryside and has a bad temper.

The father favored his adopted son, and reprimanded Xie Li in a deep voice, "Your brother has been spoiled since he was a child, please give him more concessions."

Xie Li's face was full of impatience, "Oh, I'm so busy educating him, I almost forgot about you, old man."

On the first day of the variety show, the fake young master followed him around and wanted to use him as a control group, "My brother has lived in the country all year round and has no knowledge. Please, don't mind him."

Xie Li put his hands in his pockets and said, "It's really a turtle, you little bastard just play in your little tank. If you have nothing to do, don’t follow me and go pick up the excrement at the entrance of the village."

Hearing this, the other guests complained in disapproval, "Both of you are from the same family, how can you say bad things like this to him in person?"

Xie Li, "Who is his family? Not only will I tell him in person, but if he can't hear clearly, I will also engrave it on a monument for him to see."

Xie Li attacked everyone indiscriminately in the variety show until that day when he met Ji Chu He on a narrow road.

Xie Li, "You can learn if you are not educated, you can apply makeup if you are ugly, but there is really no way to cure a bad mind."

Ji Chu He took out two coins from her pocket and handed them to him, "Those who can correct others' mistakes will be rewarded."

In the novel, there was a type of character, those who started in hell but rose all the way to the top, embracing beauties and reaching the peak. They were known as Long Aotian.... more>>

Without a master who imparted their wisdom, loyal little brothers, and diligent errand runners, they would not have survived.

To ensure the operation of the small world that was about to collapse, Jian Yuanbai had to play these roles.

Jian Yuanbai: That is, as long as Long Aotian can succeed in the end, it will be fine, right?

System: ...That's right, but the host must remember to have the male protagonist say Long Aotian's lines at the right time.

In each world, Jian Yuanbai completed his tasks exceptionally well. The only thing that made the system heartbroken was...

System: Long Aotian should be surrounded by admirers! Not become your wife!

Jian Yuanbai, who had already been brainwashed by the chuunibyou lines: Even heaven and earth can't go against my will, let alone just you.

In fact, Jian Yuanbai initially wanted to follow the plot honestly, but amidst Long Aotian's constant "GeGe" claims, he gradually lost himself, filled with passionate dreams night after night.

Jian Yuanbai: I am still a virg*n, and my body is reserved for my wife. I am no longer pure, so I have to make him take responsibility.

The system crashed, went crazy, and became utterly furious: That was just a f*cking dream. You're still pure!

Jian Yuanbai looked at the soft and white Long Aotian, with a deep and determined expression, and insisted: No, I'm not pure anymore.

Then, he exchanged the muscle-bound, eight-foot-tall cultivation method for another one. It was not that he disliked being strong, but he preferred a gentler spouse.

MINI THEATER:

In fact, Jian Yuanbai felt quite guilty inside.

The novel's Long Aotian says: Seven times a night, joy every night.

After becoming his wife: Fainted three times in one night.

Jian Yuanbai blamed himself: I only made my wife faint three times, and there are still four more to go. I am sorry for my wife, but I will try my best.

Long Aotian sneered: ...Seven times in one night, and you'll end up without a wife!

World One: The poor little chess piece abandoned by the Aristocratic Family

Facing his cold-blooded family who kicked him out of the house and wanted to see him struggle to survive,

Long Aotian's eyelashes trembled, and he suppressed shame, saying: "Today's disgrace, I will repay it a hundred times!"

The goal was not achieved, and instead, they watched Long Aotian being vigorously cultivated and adored by the top wealthy Jian family. The extremely doting family member said: ...What a tricky way to show off.

World Two: The poor little loser whose engagement was broken off

Long Aotian's ears were red, and his wet eyes looked at Jian Yuanbai begging for mercy.

Jian Yuanbai: "Say quickly."

Long Aotian: "Thirty years east of the river, thirty years in the west, Mo bullying the poor!" (三十年河东，三十年河西 is a proverb, which means that thirty years ago good Feng Shui was on the east side of the river, but thirty years later it was on the west side of the river. Later, it became a metaphor that world affairs or people's destiny are always in constant change, and there is no fixed number of rise, fall, honor and disgrace.)

Before they could humiliate Long Aotian, they were suppressed by Jian Yuanbai. They vomited blood and fell to the ground.

Villains: ...Give us our lines back.

World Three: The poor little vampire who was transformed

World Four: The poor little Alpha with damaged glands

World Five: The poor actor who was hidden in the snow

Chen Hui had traveled through the passage of time, but – when she woke up, there wasn’t even a single female servant surrounding her who exclaimed her return to consciousness.... more>>

Instead, the only person standing in front of her was an exasperating eunuch who pinned her with a malicious glare whilst remarking sarcastically, “Since Lady Chen despises and shuns lowly eunuchs such as myself, I won’t force myself upon you.

But, if you’re hoping for me to release and return you back to your family, then my only advice is for you to give up all such hopes! You will never be able to leave my household for the rest of your life, so you have little choice but to stay here till you die!”

Chen Hui: …

It turns out, that Chen Hui had time travelled, and awoken in the body of a lady who had attempted to commit su*cide (by ramming her head against the pillar) to display her staunch refusal to marry an exasperating eunuch.

However, in order to fill her belly full and keep her body warm, Chen Hui had no choice but to continuously think of different ways and means to approach the exasperating eunuch, to get to know more about the exasperating eunuch, to please and bootlick the exasperating eunuch, and to seduce… No, wait, forget about seducing that exasperating eunuch.

The eunuch Li Youde had spent his entire life being a callous, deceitful, and sly person. Never in his wildest dreams did he think that all he could think about during his most desperate hour was – how the mischievous, pampered, trouble-making enchantress at home would be able to continue living a worry-free and comfortable life without him by her side. <<less
