I was possessed in a book. No, I fell as I was. As a thorough third party, I faced the ending of the novel by the side of the main characters. It’s already been hundreds of years. The main characters have already died a long time ago, and he himself has become a monster and is still alive.... more>>

As the novel ended, I was a stranger in this world, and the flow of time stopped for me. Then I finally found a clue. A clue that can completely cut off this time and throw it away. So, following the clues, she infiltrated as a maid for the imperial family. But, have you ever… … ?

“Would you like to check?

“Is it still small or not?”

Perhaps because of the hot campfire, his golden eyes seemed to be burning. It looks big just by looking at it, so what do you need to check?

“… … Please call me by name. Hestia.”

Pathetic and earnest eyes filled my vision.

“Hurry.”

Only after hearing the answer he wanted, he smiled prettily, curling the corners of his eyes.

“We even spent the night together.”

His low voice tickled my ears like a candle flame dancing in the distance. There was no longer any trace of the little boy I had picked up in his appearance. <<less

Odor Analyst... more>>

Born with an extraordinary sense of smell.

Kim Yong-nae is a regular (NOT HIS FACE) government employee.

“Tell me, what do I smell?”

“You smell handsome.”

While helping the police narcotics unit, Yongnae infiltrates a hotel where drugs are being manufactured.

The detective on the scene is strikingly handsome, but...

“If you smell like this, I can smell you from 10 kilometers away.”

“That's a bit too much.”

His odor.

Turns out he's not a detective, but a member of a criminal organization involved in drug cases. His organization needs his sense of smell.

“Even if he stinks, I like his smell.”

Because he's handsome.

------

Kim Yong Nae, an odor analysis agent for the Jeollabuk-do Provincial Office, was living an ordinary life.

But that man isn't Detective Park, he's a member of a criminal organization!

To make matters worse, when Yong-nae visits Seoul again to explain the crime scene, she is kidnapped by the man's organization.

A crime thriller with a spoonful of comedy about an ordinary goofy civil servant who solves crimes with a sense of smell so good it could be considered a superpower. <<less

Albrecht's missing pearl was finally found!... more>>

"Is that why you're going to marry me? You might as well take the pearl!"

Louise who had gotten hold of the imperial heirloom without knowing what it was. And Caius was the pearl’s real owner.

"This."

Caius's long fingers lifted the tip of Louise's chin.
He smiles arrogantly, looking straight down into two eyes that never fail to drop a single tear.

"That's all I have for my mother's one and only relic, my mother’s heart would break if she heard."

As soon as the arsenic disappeared, their lips fiercely overlapped. The man's dry gaze was bored as it moved away from her narrow mouth.

"Are you sufficiently defiled to marry me as planned?"

She had the pearl, he owned her.
The math was too simple for Caius to back down. <<less

I, Yoo Eunha, am the female lead of ‘Devil’s Vivace’, which is a depraved, male-oriented, R-rated webnovel.... more>>

With a genre like that, I had to live a pitiable life where I would be spanked and hit by the male leads every single day, but…

Huh? The writer stopped publishing chapters, you say?

No! Please don’t quit. Dear male leads, please continue spanking me.

What? You don’t want to? Have you forgotten the discipline you’ve been taught? Hit me or I’ll kill you. Turn around and assume the position!

And thus, the daily educational record of the ‘Masterclass’ began.

Here lay all the juicy details of how the unsatisfactory main characters were beaten and straightened up, all for the sake of raising them to become true sadists…!

*

“From this day on, you will be undergoing rigorous training to become a true Master.”

“What?!”

“If you don’t become a sadistic master who can properly abuse me, I’ll kill you.”

“! …But I’m just not a #tr*shmalelead who takes pleasure in hitting you. I don’t wish to hurt you.”

This guy was the stereotypical blackhaired-redeyed-toxic-depravednovelML, and on top of that, he’s the demon king. But, what? He’s saying that he’s not cut out to be a sadist?

Oh, I got it. What if he were to become a masochist instead? What if he’d just realize one day, ‘Ah~ Being whipped sparks joy~’

I answered firmly.

"To become a magnificent dom, one must first become an excellent sub."

Of course, this was the first time I myself was hearing about something like this. I didn’t even think about it up until five seconds ago.

Though doubt and suspicion tainted his gaze, Bel’s eyes went wide open.

“Is… Is that true?”

Oh? It worked? <<less

Kaon scoffs at the idea, but when he finally meets Alessia, she turns out to be his ideal type.

“I know it’s a bit late, but would you like to dance with me?”

“It would be my honor.”

Contrary to his initial plans to just play it cool, Kaon finds himself genuinely drawn to her.

“Are you really not a mage?” Then, “Aren’t you just deceiving me, no…all of us?”

He dreamed a lot; however, everything turned out to be a lie.

It was about three years of their marriage. One day, when she was tired of her husband, who was constantly cheating on her, her husband told her to bring in a lover.

As he said, she visited the most famous gigolo in the back alley to get him as her lover.

“So, are you going to accept it?

“Yes. Gladly.”

Once removed from his mask, the gigolo has a familiar face.

Why is the Grand Duke here?

* * *

“So, have you thought about it carefully?”

“Yes. As expected, I think it’s right for us to divorce.”

“Even so, it’s only last for a moment. Just wait a moment. I will come and get you back.”

“There’s no need for that.”

“Huh?”

At that moment, the door opened.

“Lady Luize, I came to pick you up.”

Edward whispered in Luize’s ear and looked at Reiad. The moment the two people’s eyes met, Edward curled up the corner of his mouth.

“Take care, Reiad.” <<less

One night, Oscar picked up the key to a safe he had once desperately searched for. The person who came with it became a living key was a woman, extraordinary in every aspect. Her tearful eyes, naive actions, even her name and appearance. The woman was oddly irritating. He was even displeased at having to ponder how to describe that irritation. So, he wanted to temporarily put it out of sight, in a place where it couldn't be seen.... more>>

“I... want to be by your side.”

It was too ridiculous to be sincere, and far too pathetic to be temptation.

Therefore, the one who was ensnared was undoubtedly an idiot.

Even when subjected to all kinds of insults, the woman approached until the end. On those small, soft palms, which knew no calluses, Oscar von Reinhardt was played with.

So, I must hold you accountable.

“We’re of different species, so it’s unfounded for us to go into heat for each other. You’re gentle and kind, so I think it’d be okay to live together. What do you think?”... more>>

The boy nodded shyly. It seemed like a good agreement. For starters, wildcats were skilled hunters. She had also heard they were good at swimming.

‘Now I can eat meat and enjoy as many fish as I want.’

Since Sohwa hadn’t properly learned from her mother, she was clumsy at hunting. She barely remembered the last time she had eaten meat. Having a nimble wildcat friend seemed reassuring.

“I’m fine with anything as long as I’m with you…”

“We should start by changing that title. No more ‘mistress’; call me Sohwa.”

“Sohwa.”

“Yes, that’s much nicer to hear. Then I should call you... hmm.”

She didn’t know where he had come from, nor his age, so how could she know his name?

“What should I call you?”

“Dohwi.”

The boy who claimed to know nothing clearly spoke his name.

“Please call me Dohwi.” <<less

"You're quite fearless."... more>>

His voice was soft.

"Do you feel safe because I said I won't lay a finger on you? You're not just trying to see how far I can endure, right?"

The moment she lifted her head to look at him, she felt something drop in her chest. Sunwoo took a step back. His pupils were calm, but they were as restless as the heat flowing from his body.

"Don't cross the line."

He said and gave a slight smile. That smile was perfectly affectionate, so it felt rather contrived. Goosebumps rose from her arm.

"What happens if I cross it?"

"I might swallow you up." <<less

This story is fiction. The characters, ideas, and events in the work are unrelated to reality.... more>>

Some games require agreeing to this statement in order to play.

Even if it's not necessary for the game, the game typically begins with a similar disclaimer guiding the player through the precautions.

Although the advantage of a game is the 'immersion' that no other medium can match, starting with such a statement disrupts the immersion from the beginning despite everyone knowing the work is fiction.

There is no mandatory need to include such a disclaimer, so why do it?

It is likely to emphasize a fact that everyone should always remember.

[The purpose of fiction is not to dictate beliefs existing in reality.]

This message is for the developer themselves.

[Nothing in fiction can replace reality.]

This message is for the players who will share the journey of the work's story.

So.

Do you agree?

The man with tattered clothes and an old sword said, "So, I *can* kill."

He did not have any particularly memorable appearance.

He was likely not a well-known person, at least, not to the mercenary he was killing.

The important fact was that the man who had been stabbed by the worn-out sword was now dying in front of him.

"Ugh..."

When the man pulled the sword out of the mercenary, the mercenary's legs gave way, and he fell to his knees. He no longer had the strength to resist.

He wanted to raise his arm to swing his sword, but he didn't have the strength to do so. He gritted his teeth and wanted to cast a spell, but he lacked the focus to do so.

"Why... you... how?"

Thus, the mercenary chose to give up on resisting and opened his mouth to speak.

Why had the man suddenly attacked him? He had only seen him collapse and moved him to a nearby cave.

What kind of person, what kind of thoughts had led him to do this as soon as he woke up?

The mercenary was so curious that he asked the question.

"How fascinating."

The man stroked his chin as he stared at the dying mercenary.

The sight of the man in his worn-out clothes pondering was somewhat terrifying.

Soon, as if he had reached a conclusion, the man broke his silence.

"I never knew I could attack an NPC. Is that how the game is made?"

"...What?"

The mercenary couldn't understand the man's words.

NPC, not knowing an attack would work, game. He couldn't make sense of any of the words the man said.

Having spent his whole life living as a mercenary according to his "setting," he could never understand what the man was saying.

'No, you must respond properly. Properly—'

But he couldn't continue his next words or even think about the meaning of his response, and the mercenary's consciousness began to fade.

A killing driven by nothing but curiosity, with no reason.

That was the first death experienced by NPC Aiden Oliver. <<less
