‘O coveter of god’s powers, I impart upon you the curse of death!’... more>>

Death... Gart couldn't help but laugh, pressing his forehead against his palm.

He was already burdened with a curse far more terrifying. Immortality plagued him—he wouldn't succumb to death, he wouldn't age. The unending agony relentlessly crushed his body and mind. His long future stretched out, bleak and unchanging, perhaps eternal.

On a day when the torment of his curse was particularly intense, a woman appeared in the moonlight. Despite entering through the window, she didn't strike the image of an intruder. Calmly, she aimed a dagger and declared, "Stay still, and I won't harm you."

Gart tilted his head, unthreatened, and observed her pink eyes shimmering even in the darkness. "Your eyes are quite beautiful," he remarked, disregarding the warning as he moved closer.

"If you approach any further, I will truly kill you."

Gart peered into her eyes.

The woman's pupils quivered as she pointed the blade toward his heart. <<less

Falling nobleman, Marquis Milton's daughter Ellie,
When she became the highly esteemed Duke Cran's second wife,
Everyone looked at her with jealousy and envy.... more>>

Life as the Duchess, started with anticipation.

However, the shadow of the Duke's first wife cast over the entire ducal estate,
The Duke, who couldn't forget his first love, didn't give her even a moment of his attention.

Thoroughly neglected wife. That was her current status.

One day, while enduring her lonely married life with the interest and affection of her stepdaughter Serena,
The child unexpectedly spoke to her...

* * *

[Hello, Your Grace.

I was ecstatic when you proposed three years ago.

However, as time passed, I came to realize.

I am not suitable to be the Duchess, and I am truly sorry that I have not been of any help to you.

…]

Leaving the ducal estate with a letter and divorce papers,
Even though she thought the Duke wouldn't be bothered by her departure, he found her within just a few days.

"...Is this the only place you could run to from me?"

Faced with his unexpected actions, which had ignored her throughout their marriage, she could only be taken aback.

"Come back, Ellie."

"You are my wife."

Why do you look so hurt?
Tell me. You were the one who left me alone in our bedroom without even celebrating our wedding night, weren't you?

She really wanted to shout it out like this. <<less

Olivier Dampierre.
Ezon's most famous celebrity, he has it all: looks, money, and family.
A man who has never given his heart to anyone, until one day, he gets into a huge accident.... more>>

"Amélie Gagnier, marry me."

He proposed to a maid, Amélie Gagnier, at a social party at the Countess of Biché.

How did they fall in love?
Would the maid ever achieve the honour of being elevated to the rank of a duchess?

Everyone around them gossiped, but only the two of them knew.
That this whole situation was simply the result of a contractual relationship for their mutual benefit.
It must have been like that.

*

Olivier's lips curved into a slight smile as he watched Amélie.
His gaze met her calm green eyes. There was a subtle heat in those cool, forest-like eyes.

"Amelie, the more I see you, the more fascinating you become."

“...”

"When I first saw you, it was in a dark alley, and the second time, we met in the evening and stayed together until late at night. And now, here we are, spending the night together again."

Amélie quickly lowered her gaze. It felt strange. The nape of her neck grew increasingly warm.

"But it's strange."

"...What is it?"

"Even at night, you shine as bright as daytime."

A sweet, soft voice drifted into her ear. <<less

I’m definitely going to make you lay my eggs. You’ll have to see yourself becoming unhappy as you raise a bloodline that resembles me, whom you so detest.... more>>

I possessed an extra in a novel who conducted experiments torturing the ultimate weapon, a baby dragon named “Renard”. To change the fate of Renard being killed by the protagonist, I released the baby dragon into the forest where dragons live and succeeded in running away..

One day, after the adventures of the protagonist and his group had ended and peace had come. I received a royal decree, after I escaped from the villain and lived in hiding as a researcher in a laboratory.

Renard, who had become the guardian dragon of the kingdom after defeating the villain with the protagonist, demands only one thing. At this moment, he must find his “companion” to mate. I pledge myself as the dragon’s knight, offering myself as the dragon’s companion in sacrifice.

“Why are you saying such absurd things?”

“Don’t you understand what your mistake was? You abandoned me. You should also suffer to the point of death because of me.” <<less

‘Every beautiful thing is all mine.’... more>>

Louisa Messena, the lout villainess of the fallen Duchy Kingdom.

A woman who had been exposed to many works of art and surrounded by luxury items ever since she was a child, and had lived with gambling, alcohol, and luxury even after having her household ruined.

She loved and hunted beautiful things.

What she had loved the most was men.

Handsome, and beautiful men.

Without knowing that that obsession about beauty, creates a future where she will be executed.

—That was the history of the body I possessed.

But for me, such a behind-the-scene story was an area out of my interest.

I don’t give a sh*t about Rofan, or possessing. My interest is solely one.

That is making a ‘play’.

Since in my world, there are only directions, actors, stages, and audiences.

“If you want to kiss me, tell me that, Master. That’s why you make me into a male actor and you stand as a female actor, right?”

The little bit dangerous and cheeky actor, and…

“As expected, turns out you… were a person who couldn’t love anything other than plays. Even so, it doesn’t matter. Please take advantage of me. Since I’ll let myself be well taken advantage of.”

The strange as much as being obsessed fiance wasn’t the important thing. <<less

The woman who would seduce and pounce on men every single night—Lilith Sera.... more>>

And when the day comes…

“AAAAAAAAAHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH!!!!!!”

She would be left with shameful memories from last night.

—

“Lily, do you happen to know about the succubus?”
“…I read about it in a book. They’re demons… that tempt people and do bad things…”

During the spring of her sixteenth year, that was when she first saw the sign. It was a strange pattern underneath her navel that told her… she’s a succubus.

She had a clunky ring that was supposed to suppress her instincts. It was a relic that her grandmother left for her.

But on the day the kingdom fell into ruin, she lost her ring.

“My ring. It’s very important to me, but that person took it.”
“I’m sure I put it in my pocket. It should be right he— it’s… gone.”

Without that ring, Lilith would be conquered by the instincts of a succubus.

“Then, shouldn’t you take responsibility?”

—

“I’m already looking for it as hard as I can. I said I’d take responsibility, but if I’d known this is what that meant…”
“If you don’t want me to come here every night, then find it quickly. My treasure.”

After she lost her ring, every night, she looked for men who would become her prey.

Odil was just one of them.

“You came here yesterday, too! Please, just do it in moderation and leave.”
“Every time you say such mean things, I want to make you even cuter.”

Stop, just give up.

This instinct, once awoken, constantly craved for prey every night, and it was nice to see Odil’s flushed face whenever he’d see her after she came looking for him again.

“Odil, it’s far from being over. I won’t let you go until morning.”

This is a story about Lilith, who transforms into a succubus once night falls, and her five men. <<less

How could I make my voice be heard?... more>>

“The person I want to hear the most from is not opening her mouth.”

“........”

“My wife just sits quietly all the time.”

Escallion moved with heavy steps towards Belladonna, who was sitting still on the bed. Then, he forcefully grabbed her chin and lifted her head up.

'How can I speak?'

“..........”

Looking at her shaking eyes, he cl…ked his tongue, relaxed his hand holding her chin, and turned around. Her eyes were filled with Escalion's massive back muscles as he picked up the gown that had fallen haphazardly on the floor and put it on.

“...Hiccup.”

Oh no! Belladonna closed her eyes tightly, in despair. I hope he didn't hear it...

“Hiccup? Was it you?"

He heard. This is bad. I hope he doesn't come here. Please leave... Escallion slowly turned his head. His dark, shining eyes fixed on Belladonna.

"Did you just make a sound?"

His lips curled dangerously upwards.

‘The last Saint of Astanya.’

‘Astanya’s smile.’

‘A living portrait of Astanya.’

When I opened my eyes, I found myself the only daughter of the Pope, praised by everyone, and a Saint who could not speak.

"...Why do I have such a good voice?" <<less

Gido Hae is the only S-class Esper in Korea.... more>>

He is known for his personality breakdown, he suffers from chronic guiding deficiency due to his extremely low matching rate with guides. Then one day, he realizes that Kim San, a C-class guide, can guide him.

Meanwhile, Kim San came up from a remote mountain valley.

Thanks to his grandfather’s unusual education, he grew up to be an innocent young man who knew nothing of the world. After his grandfather passed away, he came to Seoul to become a guide.

Kim San has a huge misunderstanding that Gido Hae is a kind person without knowing his infamous personality. Having noticed this fact, he pretends to be a kind person to use Kim San, and he cleverly limits Kim San’s residence or radius of action.

Gido Hae tried to use Kim San and throw him away when he didn’t need him, but…It’s not as easy as he thought.

***

“So you’re going to hold another esper’s hand?”

“Yes……?”

Kim San already had a history. Didn’t he just nod his head, saying that he would gladly guide another esper than him despite his threat?? Even though it was unpleasant for him??

The view was already red, so only Kim San’s white face could be seen properly. The broken reason was trampled by instinct and made a harsh sound without a chance to be slowed.

All that was left was red-flashing anger. Towards Kim San who keeps trying to run away from him.

“I’ve been letting you off the hook, but you keep on pushing me.”

“Uh, Ugh.”

He pushed Kim San down. An unpleasantness impulsed him when a suppressed groan burst out due to rough hand movements.

“I didn’t know you’d want to take charge of another Esper.”

“Well, that’s not it……, Ugh!”

A few gestures tore off the clothes that Kim San was wearing. He pushed down Kim San, who was struggling. Kim San’s face, which was crushed as if it were buried, is now embarrassed and confused.

If you leave things like this, this painful anger will not die down.

“I’ll make it impossible for you to be a guide.” <<less
