“Gaara, come on!”

“If you dig out oil, Sunagakure will prosper.”

Gaara was puzzled. He was indignant. “Teacher Mukaze, shouldn’t hard work mean training hard as well? You always ask me to dig in the sand. What kind of oil is there to help me train?”

“Scientifically speaking, digging in the sand is a very good exercise.”

“Just dig hard, everything will be fine.”

“Once oil is dug, everyone in our Sunagakure will be able to wear a clean white cloth on their heads, and I will be the richest person in the world.” <<less

A man finds himself in an unknown city.... more>>

He had no doubt that he was in Tokyo, but the scenery before was strange.

Streets littered with wooden structures and barracks, no tall buildings and the wide sky visible in sight.

The only vehicles on the road are classic cars.

When he looked at a newspaper in a nearby shop———– The date shockingly showed it was 1963.

The money he has in his wallet is unusable, and the only clothes he has was what he has on his person.

The only thing in his bag is his smartphone, which doesn’t have any internet to connect to.

Can this time-traveling old man who has lost everything———– clothing, food and shelter———– survive? <<less

The Swordmaster who has returned by chance to save the world!

Zhou Xun had resigned himself to a life of perpetual suffering. His brother was the Emperor's beloved, the beauty mark on a tyrant's face. And he? He was a poor imitation, living in the shadow of his brother, a cheap gift sent by his brother to the Emperor as a substitute. Even his chance at the imperial examination had been ruined, and he felt abandoned by the entire world. He was the cannon fodder of a melodramatic love story, whose tragic death served to fulfill others' romances. Enough was enough.... more>>

At the palace banquet, determined to seek revenge and willing to be executed to bring down the tyrant, Zhou Xun was arrested and thrown into a dungeon. He closed his eyes, awaiting his fate. However, he didn't expect... that when the tyrant awoke from his coma, not only had he switched bodies with a man named Long Aotian but also, due to a few coincidental questions and answers, he mistook Zhou Xun for... his "fellow traveler"??? <<less

Subjected to live the life of a siren, Aria had experienced, seen, and heard many horrific things. Broken beyond repair, Aria resigned herself to death, when suddenly…

The Grand Duke, Lloyd Cardence Valentine, arrived and whispered, “Should I kill everyone here?”

“If you need me, just call me. Your song will always reach me, wherever you are.”

In the end, Aria called the devil, bringing death to all those present, along with herself.

“Let’s fall down to hell together.”

And with that, Aria breathed her last and died… only to return to her 10-year-old self.

Now that she had a second chance at her life, Aria was determined to change her fate, as well as the cruel fate of her saviour, Grand Duke Valentine.

And so… Aria proposed to him with a marriage contract.

She sold her soul to the devil and vowed to protect him.

[Marry me.] Aria extended her hand and gave him the contract. [Let’s get divorced in 10 years…]

The young duke took the contract from her hand.

“So, where should I stamp the seal?”

“You said you’d divorce me within 10 years.”

The grown-up villain leaned in, hovering his head before he kissed her tenderly over her crown.

“Now that we’re adults, we should sign another contract.” <<less

Shu Tang woke up one day to find the world gone mad; humanity was no longer content with just male and female, creating six ABO genders instead.

Shu Tang felt she might be one of the common betas, making up 80% of the population—non-aggressive, not too sensitive, quite peace-loving, and without anything extra to her person, just an utterly ordinary beta.

Then, on her adulthood test: Supreme Alpha!

Shu Tang: ?

Shu Tang's spirit is a cat. Supported by her SSS-tier spirit, she not only interned at the federal secret sanatorium but also got matched with a fragile omega.

When visiting her delicate fiancé, she mistook 10 for 01 and entered Restricted Area No. 1.

In the Restricted Area lives "Patient No. 1".

An unbeaten legend, the grand leader of the federation, known as the pioneer of human nuclear weapons.

This leader is an omega, with a merman as his spirit—no secret there.

However, due to his monstrous combat abilities, the discussions usually aren't about whether he's omega, but whether he's human at all.

After a psychic outburst, he became a "monster."

Wherever he resided turned into the Restricted Area.

Those who trespassed met grim fates.

Shu Tang entered the Restricted Area.

Reportedly, her fiancé was too frail to fend for himself.

She saw her fiancé's terrifying, silent figure in the dark.
Shu Tang noted: He must be shy.

She saw her fiancé's fishtail in the sea, water dripping down, his complexion pale and eyes pitch black.
Shu Tang noted: Low blood sugar.

She found her fiancé's voice hoarse, never speaking, only emitting beast-like, raspy threatening sounds from his throat.
Shu Tang noted: Quiet by nature, not talkative.

Shu Tang managed to get out.

An alpha asked: Did you see any terrifying beings?

Shu Tang: "Are you talking about the blue rose?"

Other alphas: ?

Blue rose? Who?

Cat, blushing: "He's nice, just not very healthy."

Other alphas: ?

Why would she be blushing?

Later, everyone thought Cat a was the one who most relied on the grand leader.

But they didn’t know—

To him, Cat was the blue rose, his spiritual support, his lifeline, his entire conception of living.

She was the one he clung to as he withered.

And in her presence, he grew silently. <<less

Lowly shepherdess. Illegitimate daughter. Disgraceful duchess.
Although she had married her beloved Duke Izar, Freesia lived as though she was trapped at the bottom of a bleak, hapless abyss.
Her family took complete advantage of her, and the people of the duchy hated her for being a stain on the household’s honor.... more>>

And then there was her husband, Izar.
Even after she had suffered a miscarriage, he remained cold.

"To be born to parents like us—happiness would forever elude that child."

At Freesia’s funeral, he had shed not a single tear.
But Freesia wished for one last thing.

Please, cry for me.
Shed even a single tear.
Dearly, I hope that your feelings might change.

Even if it means living for just one more year, that’s fine.
Once that time has passed, then.
Come and cry at my funeral.

*

For the first time, Freesia dared to glare at this man.
The dreadful document in her hand fell to the ground.

"How could you do something so cruel to me, to treat me worse than an animal!"

She was mistaken.
She thought, finally, this man held affection for her. That he trusted her.
That, perhaps... it could even be love.
But it was nothing like that. He deceived her.

"You ruined my life."

There were only five months left before her demise. <<less

My husband has died.
In a marriage devoid of affection, there existed no room for sorrow.
Yet, with his demise taking everything away from me, I just had to return the favor.... more>>

I lived believing that patience was the answer for a long time, but I won't endure it anymore.
Retribution shall be meted out upon the two houses that, as they were blinded by greed, had abandoned their children
And they shall be bestowed with everything they rightfully deserve.

'If it's not in my hands, I'll take it by force.'

In this life, there came the resolve to metamorphose into a marauder of vengeance.

***

All was but a fragment within the mosaic of a meticulously crafted design.
Love, within this intricate orchestration, was deemed an unnecessary sentiment.
However...

"I’m going crazy. I just want so, so much to wrap my arms around your waist, pull you to me and give you a kiss right now.”
"..."
"I concede, Cecilia. You won."
"..."
"Therefore, as the victor, lay claim to the spoils of war."

Breathless gasps. A cadence of coarse utterances. Cheeks ablaze with a crimson hue.
Nothing was the same from the past.

'Why are you acting like this now, when you were so indifferent to me before?' <<less

The heroine, who had an incurable disease, needed the heart of a great witch to cure it.... more>>

For that reason, Mirania the great witch was forced to die at the hands of the male lead named Grecan in countless lives.

I've had enough of this kind of life.

It's already my tenth life.

Mirania decided she would make a different choice this time.

She decided to assist Grecan, who would be the head of the wolves in the future. Starting by raising him from a young cub.

Mirania, who tried to tame Grecan perfectly by instilling herself into his memory as a benefactor.

“Grrr…”

“Now, be a good boy, okay?”

I smiled while looking at the cheeky wolf cub who's showing its teeth.

No matter how broken a story was, there's always an end to it.

By taming this wolf that couldn't distinguish between the front and back, this life, I'm determined to live in peace.

By the way…

Did I tame him too well?

"My beloved Mirania, please give birth to my child."

What appeared in front of Mirania, who opened her eyes, was Grecan, oozing a male scent on the subject of destroying her world. <<less

Here, inside this martial arts novel, there is a true teacher who teaches the arrogant male lead and awakens him through death.... more>>

Handsome, good-natured, righteous, strong, and…

Anyway, there was one big flaw in the male lead’s damn fine teacher. It was his foolish only daughter who was filled with greed. A tenacious villainess extra, who always comes back to haunt the male lead in every way, but cannot be abandoned because she is his teacher’s daughter.

Throughout reading the novel, I cursed at that daughter. Saying that if it was me, I wouldn’t live like that.
‘But that didn’t mean that I wanted to be her!’

What was worse, Father has already died, and my reputation is the worst.

Inevitably, I ran away, but… I died. However, when I opened my eyes, Father was alive!?
‘If so, in this life, I will definitely save Father!’

However…
“To think they’re aiming at my granddaughter!? I’ll kill them all!”

Why do I see Grandfather, who doesn’t even appear many times throughout the novel, so often like this?

“Marriage? No. Yeonie said that she would live by my side for the rest of her life.”
Even Father, somehow became weird.

Moreover,
“Why do you keep avoiding me? Is this also my mistake?”
Isn’t the main character suddenly becoming obsessed with me?

“Originally, I was destined to die. Until you came here.”
I saved the time-limited bastard, but isn’t it that no good deed goes unpunished?

“At least when I’m in front of you… I don’t think I’m tr*sh.”
The villain who blew off my neck is suddenly trying to repent.

Is it really okay if it’s like this? <<less

“How is life at the Duke’s castle?”

“I am living very comfortably, thanks to the great consideration of His Excellency the Duke.”

“You think it’s nice living here? Then, let’s get engaged.”

Now, what does liking living in the Duke’s residence have to do with getting engaged??

“Congratulations. Now you’ll be able to continue living in a place you like.”

“Could I possibly have the right to refuse, by any chance?”

Marin asked cautiously, with trembling eyes.

I hope I do. Please. <<less

I transmigrated into a novel as the maid of a prince who was trapped inside a tower.... more>>

It was depressing enough to be locked up in that tower, but the situation that I found myself in as soon as I transmigrated was straight up whack.
The original owner of this body, Rosé, threatened the prince and forced him to kiss her!
To make matters worse, Rosé was completely obsessed with the prince, and while trying to monopolize him, she dies a futile death!
We’re right on track to [death via decapitation] as soon as the prince escapes the tower.

So instead, I offered to make a contract with the prince, aptly titled as ‘The Contract for the Life and Death of Rosé Artius’.
No skinship at all! As long as he guarantees that I’ll live until a ripe old age, I will devote my diligence and loyalty to the prince!
But somehow… the prince’s gaze was a bit dangerous. And inside the tower, we were totally alone.

“Rosé, let’s kiss.”

…How did it end up like this?!

* * *

The breath that lingered on my lips disappeared as the stranger moved away.
I stared at the man who kissed me just now.
Under those dark eyebrows were red eyes that were exceedingly cold.
I was instantly bewitched. I couldn’t look away, as if there was an irresistible force coveting my gaze. Because he’s so handsome.

“Rosé, how long do we have to do this?”

I shuddered as the sweet voice whispered next to my ear. Only then did I come to my senses.
I laughed awkwardly to fill the silence. Ahaha, I really don’t know…

“I-I think we can stop now.”

At my words, Albert grinned. It was the forced, soulless smile of a sales team member. Nonetheless, he was still breathtakingly beautiful.

“Then, can I see it now?”
“…Yes.”

He took the wand that I had been holding.
In the novel, the maid Rosé always asked for a kiss from Albert in exchange for letting him see the wand.
In short, at this very moment, I was digging my own grave.
…Damn it. <<less

“Why? I’m your bride and the wedding is over. Now, let’s take off our clothes and go to bed.”

“You are the Tilrod family’s eldest daughter. Isn’t it natural for you to do your best to support your brother since he’s the pillar of our family?”

“You know, it’s only right for the eldest daughter to be the family’s breadwinner.”
