“…… Please allow me to receive the delegation alongside you, Your Majesty.”... more>>

“No. There isn’t anyone that doesn’t know that I don’t have a shred of feelings for you anyways, so is there a need to put on an act?”

The nobles covered their mouths with fans at the sight of the Empress being openly embarrassed by the Emperor but didn’t retract their gazes.

Along with the fed-up Edmund’s unkind treatment, the courage that was squeezed out disappeared instantly, and Sotis bowed her head without saying anything.

Sotis loved Edmund.

But Edmund hated Sotis.

“I have no intention of letting you go today.”

“I’ve never asked you to let go of me. It’s alright if you make a mess, so hurry…”

The Emperor, who’d made the Empress become an object of gossip for the nobles, sought his mistress’ embrace. Sotis felt miserable whenever she saw Edmund whispering affectionately to another woman.

‘Will everyone be happy if I disappear? Would it be alright if I disappeared? It’s just, if only I could disappear.’

***

Within the bedroom where the Empress slept quietly without waking, only a mage saw her wounded soul.

As Sotis sat by the window, she seemed shy and embarrassed, while combing her long hair with a faint smile.

“Even if you don’t lift a finger, there will definitely be someone that likes Your Majesty just the way you are.”

Although it was her first meeting that mage, the mage responded to her innermost thoughts as though he knew about everything.

“I’ll find a way. Just like how you saved me, I will also ensure that both of your feet will touch the ground once again.”

[……If you say that, it sounds as though such a day would definitely arrive.]

The mage turned his back on the Empress, who was lying on the bed beautifully and whispered to the soul by the window every day, eventually managing to awaken Sotis’ physical body…

“Tomorrow morning, we will declare our divorce. The reason for the divorce is your body’s poor condition, your soul’s instability, and your inability to carry on the family line.”

Through a single mage's utmost dedication, Empress Sotis was able to regain her body, but what she was faced with was the Emperor’s notice of divorce. <<less

I am S-class Guide Yeo Jian, with a matching rate of 0%.... more>>

I thought I got swept away by the gate manifestation without any choice, but in reality, I got spirited away by dimensional teleportation.

Furthermore, in this world, there are Espers, but there are no Guides!

In the world…

Am I the only guide?! <<less

I transmigrated into a virtual reality game based on a rofan novel.... more>>

Evelyn, a maid, the weakest character with 1 star that you would normally not even pay attention to.

Low stamina!! Vitality is rock bottom! Minimum agility! Low intellect!

Evelyn, the maid, whose charm, which is an indicator of attractiveness, is at the max level…!

My stamina plummeted just by breathing, so I was lucky if I didn’t die for at least a day. I barely managed to survive thanks to overusing Fatigue Relief Potions and quest rewards.

In order to return to reality, I must unite the main characters, defeat the final boss, and see the ending.

According to the original novel, I thought the ending would be like eating cold soup for the 10-star powerhouse couple…

The female protagonist, Bianca, the daughter of Marquis Vicious, whom Evelyn serves, is kind to the maids but shows the coldness of a Northern Grand Duke to the maid protagonist. Huh?

The male protagonist, Duke Leonian, who was naturally cold-hearted but kind to Bianca, was also agitated. What?

No, this must be an obvious error.

I try to connect the two by pouring in a potion of healing agent. Instead, the relationship becomes more and more twisted.

“You’re not just a maid, you’re already my friend and sister.”

“Didn’t you fall in love with me at first sight? Why are you drawing a line after shaking me up?”

Meanwhile, the secret of the maid, Evelyn’s birth which was not in the original work.

I have an ominous feeling that we are moving further and further away from the normal ending.

Is this game really okay as it is? <<less

Velia Devere, who dreams of a destined love, instantly falls for a man she meets for the first time at a Christmas ball. Unbeknownst to her, he is the renowned philanderer, Duke Helios Arsen, who leaves a trail of broken hearts wherever he goes.... more>>

“If you don’t mind my intrusion, may I propose?”
“And what if I dislike the idea?”

Despite summoning her courage to confess her feelings, all she receives in return is a scornful rejection.

“I like you, Duke. Very much. I’ll share my happiness with you. Take all of it.”
“You’ll regret it.”
“Someday, your heart will find its way to me, my lord. I will keep trying.”
“Then go ahead. Whatever you wish. Until you’re tired.”

Unfazed by Helios’ indifferent response, Velia persists in her unwavering pursuit of him, lingering by his side from the winter they first met until the late spring. During this time, Helios, who had never known love, gradually finds himself drawn to her unique, cheerful, and pure-hearted nature.

However, their happiness is short-lived, as Helios’ fiancée, Roseanne Libern, returns to the capital, causing turbulence in the lives of Velia and Helios.

Will Velia’s heart-pounding first love come to fruition, or will there be too many obstacles in their path?

Only time will tell in this captivating tale. <<less

I was reincarnated as the heiress of a conglomerate in the novel. However there was a problem, this world was about to be destroyed by a virus monster.... more>>

All I have left is money, I quickly bought in the countryside and built a shelter to avoid monsters…The world went down much faster than I expected, f*ck!

And somehow, even the male leads are trapped with me in my house. But it doesn’t seem like these two wanted to leave. Why is it as if you guys have no intention of going to the female lead?

“What the hell are you?”

“I think she knew about the fact that the world would be destroyed.”

They had a lot of questions for me but I couldn’t answer them. It’s not like you’re going to believe me anyway, right? Now, in my eyes, they just look like good manpower resources.

“Now let’s get to work, pay as much as you eat!”

If we manage to find a cure for the virus, the cause of the world’s collapse, our hellish times will be over. So, let’s roll the male leads until then and hold out!

But there’s one problem. This old mansion I bought turned out to be quite suspicious. What the hell is going on in my house? <<less

Charlotte Faryl had been told since childhood that she had to become an empress to help her family. As her father wished, she became engaged to the promising First Prince, a candidate for emperor. However, it was his younger brother, the Second Prince, who eventually became emperor.... more>>

The First Prince, who lost the political battle, was banished to the western territory that belonged to the empress, and Charlotte, his former fiancée, was sent to the desolate northern border, where there was nothing but snowfields and snowy mountains.

She was quietly waiting for a miserable death, either by freezing or starving to death, when an unexpected guest showed up.

"My name is Yuri Tenet, Lady Faryl."

It was none other than the right-hand man of the new emperor.

"Why are you here?"

"I heard you were looking for a servant."

He said he came to serve her.

"...Are you kidding me?" <<less

“Idel. She's the duke's daughter.”... more>>

No.

"Oh, sister. How could you...?”
"I'm sorry, Rowena; it was I who spent the night with the duke that day."

That's a lie, too.

Idel secretly bit her tongue while looking at the shocked duke and duchess, and the original heroine.

'Why did I have to be born into a ridiculous novel that my younger sister loves?'

This is a ridiculous novel where betrayal, deception, and absurdity reign.

Idel was the character responsible for the 'betrayal'.

She was raised as an innocent child, but she repaid the kindness of the Duke by killing him, leading her to become the ultimate traitorous villainess.

Of course, later in the novel, the truth is revealed: her evil deeds were the result of brainwashing, but so what?

'That was after she'd had her throat slit by the villainous duchess!'

Once cursed by her villainous mother, there was no hope of being loved anyway.

Then....

"Hmph, who cares about the family name? What's so important about a surname?"

The only way to get out of this shitty place is to act like a villain!

But as always…

"Byul was right. Now that I'm your sister, I will protect you as my younger sibling."

Plans are meant to go wrong.

"Idel, do I still look like ** to you?”

Logic is bound to be shattered.

"Crazy people suit crazy people, so you and I are a perfect match."

There's a reason why tr*sh is tr*sh. <<less

I was reincarnated into a wretched harem story with no dreams or hopes, when the heroine died for some reason.... more>>

The shock of the original story being destroyed disappeared after a while.

My older sisters then started to get involved with the male leads.

The playful and obsessive emperor found my eldest sister, who was mature and affectionate.

The blunt and strongest swordsman in the Empire matched with my cheerful second sister.

Meanwhile, my cynical youngest sister was paired with the playboy Head of the Magic Tower.

And me? I’m only six years old, so I’m not allowed to have a love interest.

Anyway, my sisters got along well with the male leads and held their weddings. But…

“Liliana. Call me ‘Oppa’.”

My youngest brother-in-law tried to win me over with splendid illusion magic and asked me.

“Am I your favorite brother?”

My second brother-in-law, the swordmaster, carried me on his shoulders and coaxed in a whisper.

“Liliana. As my youngest sister-in-law, you will live in the Imperial Palace and be treated like a princess.”

My eldest sister nodded nonchalantly upon hearing the Emperor’s declaration.

But I only want to go back to the time when I lived with my sisters and there were just the four of us? <<less

She possessed Daphne, the evil woman who died while obsessing over her fiancée.... more>>

After all, she drank poison after being informed of the breakup but came back to life.

‘I can’t give up, let’s live first and see what happens!’

She urgently concocted an antidote for the pain in her throat and it turned out to be strangely effective? Moreover, it tasted good?

After possessing Daphne, she stumbled upon a fantastic business idea.

Screw the original and throw it away,

She was going to live a comfortable life in a faraway place, but–

“Watch where you’re going! Witch, do you have eyes?”

“W-Who doesn’t have eyes?”

Pretending to hate Daphne on the surface, in reality, he liked her more than anyone else.

She became a hero after saving two twins from a crisis.

“Thank you. As an outsider, I’m truly grateful.”

“If you don’t mind… can you bless our child?”

“You should have a proper land to do business.”

“I’ve made a rare good choice, so I’ll give my blessing as the head of the family.”

By some twist of fate, even the reserved and awkward family members ended up sobbing,

And managed to mend their strained relationship.

Though…

“It’s strange. When I’m with you, the world doesn’t seem so bad.”

Luciel, the Grand Duke who had become her business partner, was so naive that she worried about his capabilities.

“There’s delicious food right in front of you, so why do you insist on eating something so bitter?”

Wearing a beautiful disguise as if it were nothing and sweetly coaxing me,

The Grand Duke, who was frail yet full of charm and kindness, was actually the villain all along. <<less

I was reincarnated into a rated-19 novel where the male lead went on a tumultuous rampage. Even worse, I was an extra character who couldn’t escape from the room and was destined to die, named Karentina Lorraine.... more>>

‘…I can’t die like this. I’ll survive.’

In order to survive, I decided to twist the frustrating original story. For a moment, I thought I was going to die… but did I get the buff of a transmigrator? Not only that I summoned a doll that looks exactly like the male lead, but I also gained the world’s only ability…

…Was the extra Karentina actually a munchkin?!

Using my newfound power, I saved all the characters who died in the original story, and with an unintended twist, I somehow helped the main characters walk a flower path toward happiness…

But, is their behavior strange?

* * *

“We’re ending our contractual engagement.”

As soon as Karentina finishes speaking, the temperature around her suddenly drops as if frozen.

“What… ending?”
“Our engagement. We were originally business partners since we have mutual interests, right?”

A mocking chuckle flowed from Ignis’s lips as if he had heard something unbelievable as he tapped the teacup lightly with his slender fingers. Despite a chill running down her spine because of the look in his bright eyes, she couldn’t back down.

“If you break off your engagement with me, who do you think you’re going to meet? Is it him?”
“No! Zion is a doll!”

Ignis’s red pupils narrow ferociously.
Why is he looking at me like that? He wouldn’t be planning to kill me, would he?
It was when I was worried about triggering another death flag.

“Did you say you like b*stards?”

“Ba-b*stards… I meant ‘big dog!’ People will misunderstand me if you keep twisting my words like that.”

Karentina cried and vented her frustration.

“Whether it’s a big dog or whatever.”

Her breath caught in her throat at Ignis’s devouring gaze.

“I’ll be an obedient dog that listens well, so stay by my side.”

…No, what kind of crazy talk is this?
I just twisted the original story to survive, but now, it seems like everything’s going wrong… <<less

“Would you like me to teach you a harsh word? Something that anyone who hears it once will never forget.”... more>>

“You’re an illegitimate child, and the very fact of your birth is a sin.”

“tr*sh like you, with no talent whatsoever.”

Violet had lived her entire life being deceived by her family’s lies.

“If we’re going to point fingers about being an illegitimate child, it would be our younger sibling.”

Having discovered the truth, Violet decided to deliver a cruel word to them, something they would never forget. A word that would haunt them for the rest of their lives.

A word that would provide a lifetime of pain.

So Violet sought help from Ash, the enigmatic young man whom she knew to be the most adept at delivering venomous words.

“We’re going to become nightmares for those people. Nightmares they’ll never forget, pains and scars that will stay with them for life.”

At that moment, she didn’t know.

She didn’t know what fate her meeting with Ash would lead her to. <<less

Claire, an ordinary but lovely lady who works in a small bakery.... more>>

One day, she picks up a purple necklace that has fallen on the road.

She didn’t even think to find its owner because it looked old at first glance, but Claire says she regrets the day over and over again.

The owner of her necklace was none other than Clive, the young master of Count of Norton and magistrate of Studehill.

“Take that woman’s personal information. It could be theft.”

She was going to die of unfairness because she was accused of being a thief, and she was scared to death of that overly handsome man.

Fortunately, she was cleared of the charge, but Clive, who continued to hover around her for some reason, was still difficult for her.

“Are you going to buy flowers?”

“No, it’s just a look.”

“Should I buy it for you?”

“… Why?”

“You’re pretty.”

Is this how aristocratic speech is supposed to be?

I’ve met an aristocrat in my life, but how do I deal with this very aristocratic man?

Besides, why are you stopping by the bakery all the time?

Whenever she encountered Clive, Claire’s mind filled with question marks.

And she had another question that filled her head.

Who the hell is the culprit in the mu*der in the town? <<less

Grand Duke Glentino, the brother of my late fiancé, came to see me.
With a child he claims is mine.... more>>

“Let’s get married.”
“…Excuse me?!”
“Shouldn’t we raise the child?”

When I rejected the Duke’s sudden proposal,

“Look here, my lady. I am a hundred times more handsome than the Crown Prince.”
I’m not interested in the position of Empress anymore, thank you very much.

“If you want, I can get you a more skilled assassin.”
I stopped trying to assassinate my brother!

“If you wish to become the ruling empress, you’ll have to make me the Emperor, my lady…”
“Don’t talk nonsense!”

I have no intention of committing treason!

“Of course, with me around, you cannot become the emperor. If I give up my right to the throne-”
“Of course, Dad. That’s how it should be.”
Now, even my son! This is crazy!

“Fine, let’s get married.”

But only for a year.

And so began the trial version of my life as the Duke’s wife.
This is the story of a former villainess who returned, gaining a fox-like husband and a rabbit-like son. <<less

I was stuck in a dungeon explosion while working so hard that I actually died.... more>>

But when I opened my eyes, I was back to the time of 3 years ago!

Well, I will live differently in this life. Salary is goodbye to s*ave life. I quit immediately and set up a cafe in the store my grandmother left behind.

There are no customers because she is right in front of a dungeon, but it doesn’t matter. All I want is to work two days and play five days. But.

[Class: I woke up as the cafe owner (F)]
[Skill: I have the coffee in my hand (Lv.1)]
[Mission: Brew 100 cups of mixed coffee (0/100)]
[Item: Mixed Coffee – Increases recovery speed by 100% faster]
After leaving my life as a wage s*ave, I became a coffee s*ave.

Also, the attractive regular customer who keeps bothering me is somehow unusual.

It doesn’t feel good. Isn’t it like the story of the main character of the RPG, who was just trying to run an errand, and ends up fighting the devil after getting caught up in something annoying?

Yes, I will not. I can not. I have no intention of playing more than the role of a novice innkeeper.” <<less
