“Everything that sparkles is mine.”... more>>

It’s been 10 years since I took on the role of Gemma, a jewel-stealing thief in a game with extreme difficulty.

Today, I was doing the stealing that the system told me to do to avoid a bad ending…

“Gotcha.”

“Huh?”

I was caught by Inspector Raven Hunt, the investigator who was persistently pursuing me.

[Enter the bad ending route.]

‘System! Give me one more chance!’

However, it was not the system that gave me a chance to live, but the enemy.

“You choose. Prison or marriage?”

* * *

My fake marriage to the man who arrested me…

“We’re divorcing as soon as we get that damn ruby back.”

“I’m already looking forward to that day.”

We are just together to find the missing ruby…

“Our child. The responsibility is mine and yours together. So don’t think about running away again.”

The man who seemed to be disgusted by the idea of having fur on him raised my cat with me.

“The only jewel I want is my wife Gemma.”

He began to say things that made my heart flutter.

“Raven, if you do this, I will report you.”

“Marriage registration.”

I… Maybe I didn’t steal the jewels I was told to steal, but I stole this man’s heart? <<less

"I saw your fiancé courting a widow."... more>>

One day, Kisa heard shocking words from a stranger. Pale with shock, she went to confront him and asked,

"The difference in gender between her and me is merely a secondary factor. Am I, in blunt terms, having an affair?"

Kisa could no longer endure this deception.

**

Before her, who was struggling with an oppressive father over the broken engagement, a man appeared like a savior—Seyard, who suddenly became a duke in place of his deceased brother.

"Kisa, will you marry me? To solve each other's problems."

A suspicious man with nothing known about him. However, he was kind, and unlike her father, he supported her.

Sometimes, an inexplicable chill overcame her, but everything went smoothly. Until a letter arrived from her former fiancé.

[I have something urgent to tell you. It’s a very serious and dangerous issue regarding the man who may become your husband.]

Kisa's heart raced. What is this man hiding from me? <<less

“I heard you have lived your life as a saintess… Do you know of the matters of the night?”... more>>

Beryl, as a saintess, bears the duty of visiting the demon family to purify them.

After two lives and two deaths, she finally seeks out the true demon, carrying within her a desire for vengeance against humans more demonic than demons themselves.

“You said you wanted to learn about desire… On your first night, I shall gift you a night so unforgettable, even the gods will be forgotten.”

Yet the demon she faces in person is utterly sinful, blasphemous, sweet, and addictive. <<less

An extra sacrificed for the main character. That is Shuelina, the princess who was abandoned by her biological father and older brother.... more>>

……And now, I will become the main character of this story.

It was fortunate that I was left in the orphanage, because once the imperial family finds me, I’m doomed.

“Have you heard? The Grand Ducal Family of Vailot came to sponsor an orphan.”

To find a way to live, I put my heart and soul into getting into the grand duke’s villain family, but–

“You are free to do whatever you want. I, the grand duke, will protect you.”

“You’re not an orphan. You’re my little sister.”

Why do they like me so much?

I decided to live well as a lady of the Grand Ducal Family of Vailot, however…

“I’ve been looking for you for a long time, my child!”

This time, my biological father, the emperor, cares for me.

What’s wrong with him? I don’t need those who didn’t listen to Shuelina.

I refuse to accept your affection! <<less

[Wasn’t our relationship just a joke from the start? Oh, but I’ll admit one thing. It was fun.] ... more>>

With nothing but a single cruel letter declaring that everything had been a lie, Emeline's first love disappeared. Now, he has returned—upon hearing the news of her engagement.

***

It all began with rivalry between families. That man, Zenon Trancium, was a delinquent aristocrat who never failed to scratch at her pride. One summer day, when they were both young and naive…

“Have you ever kissed anyone?” Oh, right, you're so high and mighty that you would freak out if someone even touched you, wouldn't you?”

“I've done it too. Want me to show you?”

What started as a battle of pride from his taunts quickly turned into first love. But before long, Emeline realized it had all been a game to him, and she erased him from her life—or at least, she tried to.

“It's been a while, Lady Delzeier."

Until the moment he appeared again, right after hearing of her engagement.

“Do you hate me so much you'd die? Funny, it doesn't feel like the truth to me.”

Despite being the one who abandoned her, he now stood before her with the look of someone who had been left behind. Her first love was intruding upon Emeline’s life once more—this time, not to offer love, but to ruin her engagement.

“Lady Delzeier, we may still be rivals tied by our families, but let me make one thing clear.”

We're no longer the naive children of that summer. <<less

I’ve been reincarnated as the lowest-ranked extra in a game.... more>>

Everything was going well until I was born as the only daughter of the most prestigious Duke family.

[…]

[●Fate: You will be brutally mu*dered by your father on your 9th birthday.]

What? Is this my actual fate? Dying at the hands of my father at the age of 9?

If I can’t avoid it, I’ll overcome it!

A princess’s thrilling second life adventure of overcoming a deadly fate and defeating the demon king!

‘I’ll befriend the main character and defeat the demon king!’ <<less

“I am Lady Glasster, treat me accordingly!”... more>>

Aiden Fitzroy, the illegitimate child of the former emperor bearing the scars of war, and Anje Glasster, forced into an unwanted marriage,

“Now, aren’t you Mrs Fitzroy? Moreover, I’m not spending time with you because I like it.”

A farm surrounded by nature, a quaint rural village, and everything that doesn’t suit her taste. Among them, the worst is Aiden, who treats her like a pest.

“Just wait, I’ll deceive you and escape from this farm!”

But at some point, both his attitude and her feelings begin to change.

****

“So what you’re saying is that you didn’t think I was beautiful before, but you do now?”

“Ah……No, even before.”

With an embarrassed voice, Aiden mumbled like he had a thorn in his throat, but eventually, he managed to finish his sentence; though he had to squeeze his words out.

“Even before, I thought you were beautiful.”

“………Sir, your ears are red.”

Everyone thought this marriage marked the downfall of Princess Glasster, but was that really true? Was she really falling? <<less

Theresia Oblene, eight years old.... more>>

As her dead mother’s things which she left were taken hostage, she was threatened by her wicked biological father and was forced to be adopted by the Ghost Duke family.

“But he only told me to go to be adopted, right? He didn’t tell me not to have this adoption undone, did he?”

Now that it has become like this, I’ll leave my name behind as the fastest child to get a dissolution of adoption in the history of the Empire.

***

An heir’s duty? What’s that? Is it something to be eaten?

It was my plan to become a lout and get kicked out on purpose.

Until I met the Ghost Duke who was cursed.

[Let me do this kind of thing as a parent, Terry.]

[I will become the Miss’ wooden horse!]

[Thank you, Miss!]

The Duke is too kind, and the employees are too sweet.

If so… then change of plans!

I decided to raise the Duke Family which is doomed, and buy the whole Viscount family.

Shouldn’t I use the ability to see ghosts at times like this?

But…

[Hey, you. If you keep pretending not to know…]

[I will tell the ghosts of the mansion that you can see ghosts.]

My ability was found out by some teddy bear that was possessed by a ghost.

Will… I be able to survive here safely? <<less

It had been a year since I possessed this body, and I finally discovered the identity of the original character.... more>>

But… I was revealed to be Evelyn, a handmaid who would help the runaway of the future imperial princess, Caesar.

My only way to survive was to control Prince Caesar’s rampage and raise him to the throne.

“I have to find Your Highness’s guide. Contacting a guide will allow you to awaken your abilities without going into a rampage.”

In an attempt to survive a little longer, I set out to find his guide… only to discover that I was the one and only guide?

Moreover,

“I have no reason to dislike Your Majesty.”

“Then that’s good, isn’t it?”

“…Huhh?”

“If you don’t dislike it, then it’s good.”

As I was gradually preparing to leave the palace, the newly crowned Emperor looked at me with sparkling eyes.

He held both of my hands tightly, as if he had no intention of letting go.

I had only awakened him, so why was he following me around like a drenched puppy?

And why wasn’t the rampage stopping?

***

“It’s about time for me to vomit blood, isn’t it?”

“Why would you say I’m going to vomit blood in front of me? Why?”

Unbeknownst to him, I was eavesdropping when Caesar gazed lazily and whispered.

“I need to go on a rampage… so that Evelyn won’t leave me.”

At that moment, the door I had been waiting for opened, and our eyes met.

His sky-blue irises were stained with bewilderment. <<less

“This bit*h is not my daughter.” ... more>>

Ariel was born in the Marquis family but she was ab*sed and abandoned by them. She ended up a miserable death filled with endless misfortune. When she woke up, she was nine years old again. In order to not repeat the miserable life, Ariel decides to have a contractual marriage with the son of the grand duke, Lakatyer, who is famous for blood and madness.

“Good, Ariel. Now you are the Lady of this house.”

“But I just married yesterday…”

“The Grand Duchess is not here so you are the Lady of this house.”

Ariel responds, clenching her fists, “I will do my best.”

“No, you don’t need to do your best. The house is all yours. So just think of how to enjoy it.”

Why is everyone so nice to me?

“Speaking of which, what are all these keys?”

The housekeeper glanced at the keys and laughed.

“These keys are for the treasury of the grand duke’s family.” Yeah? What do you…?

‘He said that I can use all of them as I please because there are all mine?’

Ariel just barely understood the situation barely and surprised. Wait… it means he left all his treasures to me even though I’m just ten years old? She was confused, why does she have the repository keys of this house? Will the house be fine with this? <<less

A command was given to Betty, a maid of the Charte Ducal House: ... more>>

“Write a letter for me.”

The letter was to be sent to Deyvan, the Grand Duke, who was engaged in marriage discussions with the Lady of Charte.

Initially, it was merely a matter of pretending to be Lady Charte.

[My injuries are not significant enough to cause you concern, so please do not worry.]

But after realizing that the Grand Duke was carefully reading the letters she wrote, Betty began to pour her genuine feelings into the correspondence.

[I will await the day Your Grace returns.

I pray for your continued well-being.]

As Ian, the Grand Duke, traced the sentences on the paper with his fingers, he murmured, “I must finish this war before the year ends.”

To someone without a family to return to, the end of the war had always symbolized nothing more than the conclusion of duty.

But this time, it was different.

He wanted to meet the warm and sincere person behind these letters in person.

Yet, Ian did not know.

When he faced the Lady of Charte again, he would be met with unfamiliar, wary blue eyes.

“Still, it’s a relief to know you are safe for now.”

And that he would find himself unable to look away from the gentle brown eyes of the maid, Betty.

Will he discover the true author of the letters? <<less

I was a rabbit shapeshifter who couldn’t even transform into a human by my coming of age ceremony.... more>>

My family said that I was just a half and placed me in a basket…

“You’re crying? Go on, cry more.”

I was then picked up by a black panther with a mean personality.

“You’re lacking in stamina. I’ll eat you the day after tomorrow, so keep trying.”

This fierce beast.

Staring at my trembling face, the black panther’s eyes glistened.

“Seems like I just felt thrilled.”

Mom, I think he’s crazy!

To survive a fairly crazy black panther.

“The wild beasts are possessive, no matter what it is.”

….Is it possible? <<less

The man I had a drunken one-night stand with turned out to be the male lead from the original story. The issue? This ridiculously rich, handsome, and incredibly fit younger guy is set to start a war in two years. And me? I need to get out of here, obviously. So, I said, "I only liked you for your money."... more>>

"Is that so? I have plenty of money. Does that mean you like me a lot, then?" He leaned in, planting a light kiss on my cheek, then asked in a low voice, "Besides the money, what else do you like about me? Yesterday, it seemed like you were quite into my face and body too."

"What?"

"I'm guessing you’re in love with me..."

"Ack!" Instinctively, I screamed to block his love confession. But Kyle, as if he'd just realized something, grinned brightly.

"I get it now, noona. You don’t want to hear me say I love you, right?"

Exactly, that’s it!

"In that case, I’ll express it in a way you like better than words."

With that, Kyle tugged his tie loose and stepped closer to me.

No! I don't want you to express it with your body either! <<less

The Legendary Sword, Excalibur.... more>>

The one who draws that sword will become the Master of the continent.

I became a villainess in a mythological novel.

Morgana Le Fay, the villainess who was executed by the Hero after stealing the Legendary Sword and delivering it to the final Dark Villain.

'I will refrain from evil deeds. I'm a good person!'

So, I tried to escape from the Dark Villain, enjoy a peaceful life, and be wise in this world.

However, as I was checking if the sword was properly inserted into the rock, I stopped pulling it out.

"Why is the Legendary Sword so easily pulled out?! What about the Oracle?"

Of course, I tried to pass the Excalibur to the main character and run away, but the atmosphere became strange.

"Where were you planning to go with the Sword?"

"Well, I don't know. Going out to the lake ahead...?"

"Yes, beyond that lake is the land of Britain."

"I have no intention of handing you over to Arthur."

"Hey, there seems to be some misunderstanding."

"I’ll bring the continent into your hands, so don’t leave and stay by my side. Morgana."
The new king of Avalon will open the door to war.

"My dear Morgana. Forgive me for daring to desire the King of Britain. I will risk my life and honor to put you in the place you deserve."
Then the main character should be the Master of the Sword.

"I don't care if the other person is a woman. The marriage is already prepared. Come on, let's go to Britain and push my father away!"
The heroine, who's declared in the Oracle to marry the male protagonist, the Hero of this world.

—Once you pick it up, I'll go with you until you die. All right, here comes the Master of the continent!

Even this damn Excalibur!!

Why is everyone crazy? Excuse me, I don't need that continent! <<less

Her family used all their money for her extravagance and luxuries and brought a crisis of bankruptcy.... more>>

While trying to figure out how to pay off their debts, she found a leaflet from the duke looking for a lost child.

The reward is so much money that you can play and eat even after you pay off your debts!

Following the memories of reading this book, right away, Lizelle picked up the boy who was caught in a tr*sh in a poor village.

She took the lost Lapel and went to the duke.

“This is the child the Duke is looking for.”

Duke Chester said, looking at me with a doubtful glance.

“I need confirmation, so you should stay with my child in this house for the time being.”

The strange cohabitation of the three people started like that.

However, Lapel keeps thinking of me as a mother and won’t let her leave.

*

“Let’s get married.”

Lizelle was startled by the unexpected words.

“Are you insane? Did you drink?”

“1 year. If you perform a contract marriage for one year, I will pay you 10 times the amount of the rewards you were given.”

“Can I call you honey?”

And the contract marriage and marital life began.

But why are my eyes constantly changing?

Why do you keep coming every night! <<less

‘I possessed the female lead who runs away after becoming pregnant with the male lead's child.... more>>

I know the original story, so there’s nothing to misunderstand!”

So, I decided not to run away and instead seduce the male lead...

“Quite a convincing act."

My pretense of being the tragic original female lead was immediately seen through.

“It seems my wife isn’t in the condition for a boat ride.”

My desperate attempt at skinship to earn the female lead’s buff was brutally ignored.

“Am I truly doomed?”

After a moment of despair and grueling effort, I improved my relationship with the male lead and confessed about the pregnancy.

But then.

“The child.”

With the same hand that had gently caressed Dahlia's belly, he softly cupped her cheek.

“This way, I’ll have no choice but to kill you myself.”

The warmth of his hand on her cheek felt chilling.

“Don’t you agree, my wife?”

…I should’ve just run away. It seems I’m totally screwed. <<less

“How could you fool me so perfectly for so long?”

“I can’t believe it. Don’t you know what shame is?”

Then, everyone turned their backs on me as if they had been waiting. Pointing their fingers at me and calling me a ‘fake’.

“I told you I won’t.”

“… … What?”

“I won’t be a saint.”

“… … .”

Yes, they were all dirty and deadly, so I threw them all away. When I threw the mace I was holding to the floor, the solid marble floor shattered in an instant.

But that was still okay. Because even a cat like me found a caretaker who adores me!

“Were you trying to run away?”

“Meow, meow?”

Unfortunately, this place is inside a horror game where people are kidnapped and killed every night.

“……?”

What’s going on here?

“…..You.”

Said the male lead whose eyelashes were shaking.

“You’re Mariette’s daughter.”

I dropped the flower crown I was holding from my hand.

Who is Mariette?

Isn’t it the name of the original villainess who lost everything and met a tragic end?

By the way, I’m Mariette’s daughter?

What a crazy thing to say.

At that time, I was seriously thinking about whether or not the male lead turned crazy after the ending of the novel.

“And… also my daughter…”

The male lead said with tears in his eyes.

….Huh?

“I’m finally meeting you. I didn’t even know I had a child. Baby, I’m actually your father!!”

The moment when the male lead continued to speak mournfully.

Crying-!

Someone suddenly came out and slapped the male lead in the back of the head with all his might.

Slapping-

The male lead, who was hit in the head, passed out and threw his face on the dirty ground.

“Where did you lay your hands on, you bastard!”

Then, the grandfather, whose face was blushing, appeared and shouted aloud.

“You’re such a fool who doesn’t even know grace, how much my daughter suffered because of you and left, where are you shamelessly coming to?”

I stared at the male lead, who had his face savagely smashed on the floor, and Grandfather, who came with a bigger stone this time with a lot of energy.

The only real villainess in the novel brought in a man with a beautiful appearance and tamed him for life. He learned to beg her after forcing his fear to his limits, and he became into a beast from which he could never escape, even if she freed his leash. However, the beast falls in love with the woman who saved him and becomes the emperor, with his savior by his side, enslaving the villainess for all eternity.... more>>

I recall this scene where the male protagonist was being tamed. …What am I supposed to do?

First of all, let’s unwind the brainwashing little by little. Let’s pretend we’re sorry after that… Amen.

“What are you talking about… I don’t know. His Majesty the Emperor.”

“How could I ever forget this touch of yours?”

He then grabbed my wrist, grabbed my hand, placed it on his cheek, and stroked it down gradually.

Just like how Illyana, the villainess in the novel, always do as she praised him.

“I’m going to tame you as a beast that can’t do anything without me, just like what you did to me.”

The palm that had brushed his cheek so unintentionally reached his lips. He kissed the palm of my hand briefly, then slowly removed his hand. <<less
