I became an extra in a detective novel where people are dying left and right. Moreover, I became a character with the lowest survival rate, a girl with no dreams or future!... more>>

"The culprit is that person!"

Unable to witness people dying in front of me, I subtly pointed out the culprit a few times.

"Become my daughter."
The protagonist of this novel, who catches criminals, and also the most powerful figure in the Empire, the Duke, proposed adoption to me!

Is the life in the back alley with an empty stomach finally over?! Even rejoicing at being allowed to eat two fluffy breads, the hidden settings of the novel suddenly come to mind.

'...Wait a minute. Wasn't the protagonist in this novel supposed to be a psychopath?'

The Duke, colder than anyone to villains, but warm to his adopted daughter! <<less

I was fighting with the heroine for the Empress’ seat.... more>>

I, Yurina Carthia, the villainess, die at the hands of a mage supporting character.

So before the heroine gets a hold of him, I decided to find the young mage supporting character in the orphanage to sponsor him and pull him to my side.

“Ray, I want you to remember what I’ve done for you today. And later when I’m in danger, you have to save me just like how I saved you today.”

I only have one goal. To avoid death and survive by winning his favor. But then…

“Don’t forget, Yurina. I’m the only one who can save you and kill you. So you have to stay by my side.”

The child, who I thought was a dog-like cat, has grown up to be an obsessive man! <<less

“You never loved me anyway, right?”... more>>

Astelle’s long-awaited marriage life ended in a day.

She worked hard to become Kaizen’s wife since she was ten, but the only thing that was left for her was the stigma of an empress.

She was abandoned by the royalty; the man she loved, Kaizen, wanted her to leave.

“Yes. You’re right. I didn’t love you.”

Astelle lied for the last time. The man was the reason for her life, but it was also for the sake of the man who was her husband for a day.

She thought there would be no contact with him again, but-

“I think… I might be pregnant?”

***

Six years later, Astelle, who reunited with Kaizen, lied again.

“You… who is that child?”

“He’s my nephew.”

To protect the child. <<less
